DEADLOCK IN THE HOUSE, es The Republicans Fillibustering. CONGRESSMEN AS ATTORNEYS. Senate Debate on the Motion to Recon- sider Mr. Beck’s Resolution. ‘The Senate. In the Senate Mr. Frye, trom the committee on commerce, reported favorably @ bill to amend the laws relating to the inspection of steam vessels. The bill provides for the pay- mentoutof the Treasury of tie expenses of steamboat Inspectors. Mr. Frye said the bill was in answer to a recommendation of the President. The vessel owners of the country, Mr. Frye added, were under obligations to the President for his approval of the shipping bill and for his recommendation for supplementary, legislation, to provide for the expenses of the steamboat inspectors, oe ought at once to provide that legislation. The bill was passed without debate. Resolutions were submitted by Mr. George for reference to the committee on the judiciary, and were so referred, directing that committee to report a bill for the repeal of all laws which the United States Supreme Court has declared unconstitutional, and providing for a aes digest or index’of the statutes of the United States, including those of the present Con- gress, CONGRESSMEN AS ATTORNEYS, ‘The Hawley motion was then taken up, to reconsider the vote by which the Senate Passed the bill prohibiting members of Con- Gress from acting as attorneys of land grant Tallroads. MR. BECK OPPOSES RECONSIDERATION, Mr. Beck resumed the floor and continued his remarks against reconsideration. He de- nied that he had intended to injure anybody by the introduction of the bill, Referring to the amendment of Mr, Mitchell, of Oregon, to make the bill apply to almost all sorts of business, Mr. Beck said it took in almost all of creation; that there was, in bis ‘opinion, no illustration so apt as that of the fox that got his tail cut off and wanted all the other foxes to lose their tails, Mr. Beck reiterated his denial of any intention to reflect upon the honesty of Congressmen, and suid that if that charge laid against him’ it would apply to the other thirty-six Senators who voted for its Passage. He said his object was to prevent members of Coneress from being attorneys for land-grant railroads and from voting on questions of interest to these roads with the mouey of such corporations in his pocket, MR. MITCHELL DECLARED that he is not now and has not been for more than one year the attorney for any railroad company. But if it is proposed to passa bill upon the assumption that every Senator who is a lawyer is dishonest, and to make him hon- ay then it should go farther. Sir, Teller said he was one of the eleven who voted against the bill, and he owed no apology toanybody for it, Mr, Mitchell, of Oregon, pointed out what he regarded as the injustice of the bill, saying it would practically prevent members of Congress from engaging in the practice of the law. Re- ferring to Mr. Beck’s allusion to report. that he (Mitchell) was an attorney for the Nortuern Pacitic railroad, after repeating his denial of such employment, Mr, Mitchell said that some time ago when an important whisky question Was peading in Congress, there were newspaper charges that certain members of Congress were ver zealous in beball of tuat interest. “That was simply a lie, that’s all,” interposed Mr. Beck. Mr. Mitchell did not doubt that it wasa lie, but it showed what reports were worth. Mr. Pugh salu he voted for the bill, but sub- sequent examination had satisfied him it was hasty, iibedvised and mischievous: ion, 2 he -weuld vote to reco! ‘and would then vote against the bill. Mr, Evarts said that lawyers were under a double oath of honest pertormance of duty. He had never before been in an association that needed new penal law to secure propriety of conduct. He opposed tho bill and said it was a stigma upon the Senate. House of Representatives. CONFEREES ON THE DIPLOMATIC BILI. The Speaker annunced the appointment of Messrs. Belmont, Cox and Hitt as conferees on the diplomatic and consularappropriation bill. Mr. Wise (Va.), from the committee on naval affairs, reported a bill temporarily increasing the number of assistant engineers in the navy, find restoring certain cadet engineers to thelr al right and proper office and rank. Cop- mittee of the whole BFILIBUSTERING ON MR. MORRISON'S RULE CoM- MIITHE REPORT. ‘Mr. Morrison (Ill) then called up the report of the committee on rules, amending the rules ot the House, upon which the debate occurred yestertay. Mr. Heed (Me.) ratsed the question 6f consid eration, and Mr. Hiscock (N. Y.) expressing his desire to goon with the sundry civil bill, Mr, Randall remarked that he could take care of that measure. On a standing vote the House refused—80 to 91—to consider the report, and the result was Teceived with applause from the republicans. But ona yeaand nay vote the House deter: mined—yeas, 133; nays, 115—to consider the report, Mr. Reed changing his vote at the last momeat to enable him to move to reconsider. Having made that motion he yielded to Mr. Hiscock to move to udjourn, and this motion he supplemented with another th.t when the House adjourn to-day it be to meet on Friday next. Mr. Burrows (Mich.) ironically suggesting that Friday was too early a day, moved to sub. stitute Saturday. Thus, having laid a foundation for a day of UR een the Ropar cans: refrained from voting and jeft the House without a quorum. Mr, Morrison moved « call of the House. Mr. Reed suggested that the House might consider the sundry civil bill. “I will take care of the sundry clvil bill,” remarked Mr. Morrison, a; “You, too,” exclaimed Mr. Reed, in affected surprise; “I am afraid the sundry eivil bill 1s being taken too much care of,’ A call of the House was ordered and the doors of the chamber were closed, The District in Congress.

Buckey to be his own suc- cessor as justice of the peace, BAD SANITARY CONDITION OF THE TREASURY BUILDING, In the Senate to-day a letter was read trom Acting Secretary Fairchild, pf the Treasury, calling attention to the bad sanitary condition of the Treasury building, and reeommendin; that $96,000 be appropriated to put itin the best condition, with proper ventilation, &¢., as that was the amount estimated as’ ned: essary to carry out the best plans, Referred to the appropriations committee.

Commissiover Black Before the Sei ate Committee Again To-day. ‘The Senate committee on public expenditures to-day resumed the investigation of Pension Commissioner Black’s alley.tion that political influence had dominated the Pension office in the past. ‘The case of L, C. Houk, member of Congress from Tennessee, which was pending at the last adjournment, was resumed. The amount of arrearages he got with his pension was $3,090. The point made by Gen. Biack in this case was that the board of medical examiners of the pension bureau in Wasuington reported that Uhere was no disability, and yet sion Yas slowed very soon after the was ‘The case of George W.

He applied tor a. pension’ on the ground that he was ruptured by hauling cannon upa mountain neur Stephenson, Alabama, Affidavits of com- Fades to te effect that the injury was produced aw alleged were read. The feature which brought the case before the Committee was a letter writ- ten March 22d, 1884, to Commissioner Dudley by Robert Graham, ‘of Indiana, in which be galled attention to the claim’ of his friend ‘Wyatt, saying the latter was agood soldier, and thit his claim was meritorious; that it had been on hand # long time, and he requested Com- missioner Dudley to iucilitate it asinuch as pos- sible, as Wyatt “Is an active friend of ours and ‘A POLITICAL HUSTLER,” Letters from the pension office to the post- masterat Wyatt’s home, and one or two others asking for information as to the credibility of the witnesses in the case were read. Gen. Black had nothing to say against the merits of the case. Being asked If that letter caused it to be made speclal, he sald he pre- ferred to let the case speak for itseli; that he had no comments to make. He read a note from Graham & Yancey, attorneys in the case, calling attention to its status, and an endorse- ment from Commissioner Dudley ordering it to be sent forward tor examination, review, etc, atone. In regard, to this case, the substance of Com- missioner Black’s allegations was that the ap- Plication of Wyatt with utidavits showing his Suffering and needy condition remained in the Pension office for over ten years unuouced, but that soon after his recommiendation us a politi- cal worker his pension was allowed. He got $1,495 in arrearages, Gen. Black made no question of the mierits of the case, but it was what he regarded as the manner of its allow- ance that be commented upon, Senator Plumb called attention to the letters written and the orders issued for a rigid in- quiry into the testimony as proof that due pre- caution was observed. He wanted to know it Gen. Black regarded the Graham letter as the influence that procured the pension, LET THE RECORD" SPEAK FOR ITSELF. Commissioner Black preferred to let the record speak for itself, There was some inquiry as to the custom of writing letters to postmasters for information in pension cases. Gen, Black said he had practically discontinued it, He referred tosome insinuation or suspicion that such let- ters had been designed to elicit political inform- ation with regard to applicants, Mr. Plumb’ wanted any evidence to that ef fect which might exist, and Gen, Black said he would endeavor to present it, ——— ee ‘The Bladensburg Spa Springs. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY ABOUT TO BE TRANSFERRED TO THE GOVERNMENT. Scott's geographical description of Maryland and Delaware has the following reference tothe Bladensburg Spa. Springs, which property is ‘about Lo be formally transferred to the govern- ment, as stated in yesterday's Stan: “AU Bladensburg, in Prince George’s county, isatine chalybeate spring, to which a great many people resort in the summer months. It is impregnated with iron and contains a great deal of carbonic acid or fixed air. The water is exceedingly cleur and remarkably cold, in all cuses of debility the most silutary effects are produced irom the use of it, and in many in- Stances where itis drank for & few days the ap- petite is increased.” Another description of the springs is as fol- lows: “The mineral spring is pleasantly sit- uated on the side of the stream (Bastern Branch) near a fine elump of trees at the en- trance of the village. It would not require much expense to make this an agreeable watering place, ‘The temperature ot the water is Some years ago a public bath Was constructed near ine spring, but the tem- perature was iound to be disugréeably cold and it was entirely abandoned, The waters are Aight and agreeable and are drunk during the summer months by ‘valetudinariana frou ‘ashington and other neighboring places. ese Waters ure also used for culinary by the people of Bladensburg and vicin- Ry. “in the yeurtisod the surines the springs was com inundated, and atter ‘dood had subsided to tue tave or ae min- eral waters their current was not greater than usual, which proves that the spring is not sen- sibly’ affected by the rains, the autumnal season the location of the spring 1s "Ra nee Maney Bean ney the of this spring his residence for some i COST OF GAS IN WASHINGTO) Testimony Before the Senate Sab-Com- mittee. . PRESIDENT M'ILHENNY NOT ABLE TO BE PRES- ENT—TESTIMONY OF HIS BROTHER—GAS FOR 40 CENTS PER 1,000 CUBIC FEET—POINTS FROM SATURDAY'S HEARING. Senators Spooner and Blackburn were ready this morning to proceed with the gas inquiry, but President McIihenny of the gas company sent word that he was unable to get out to-day, as he is suffering with rheumatism. Mr. John Mclihenny, of Philadelphia, a brother of the president of the Washington gas company, was Present. In reply to questions he said that he has been engaged all his life in making and selling gas,and that he is now interested in several companies. He was not personally ac- Gyainted with the cost of gas manutacture in ‘ashington. His belief was that cual costs over $4a tom to the company here. As his brother had given the cost of gas Supplied at the burner at 84 cents per 1,000 cubic feet, he believed that to be correct." That would show that gas could be sold here at $1.25 per 1,000 Ata Profit, He would not undertake to supply itat any less; he would not invest capital to make and sell gas here at less than $1.25 per 1,000 cubic feet. He said the cost of gas was different at different places, as much depends upon the cost of coal and pon the manage ment of the company. Col. McCagthy, a gas expert and engineer, who has had wide experience in the man facture of gas, was present, He asked Mr. Mo- ihenny some questions, to which the latter re- sponded that he had no practical knowledge of the cost of gus here. He would not care to in- vest money in gas companies to make only 64g Percent profit. He sald that the cost of gas Varied trom $1.10 to $1.30 per 1,000, and in Portsmouth It cost $1.50. ‘The committee adjourned to await President MelIlhenny’s recovery. GAS AT FORTY CENTS PER THOUSAND FEET. Col. MeCarthy,in reply to questions of a STAR reporter, said that coal gas uf sixteen candle power can be made in Washington at forty cents per thousand cubic feet. He added that he is willing to give bond in any amount to make gas at that figure here. He remarked to the sub-committee that he was willing to enter into bond,to the amount of the value of the gas works,to put coal gas of sixteen candle power in the'holders here at forty cents per thousand, if the government wants to take charge of the works; orhe would give bond to establish a competing company and make the best quality orpure gas and sell it at one doliar per thou sand. He gave itas his opinion, based upon his knowledge and experience, that water and coal gas should not be mixed, as is done by the gas company here. He asseried that the mix- ture resulted in bad gas; that instead of the water gas improving the inferior coal gas the iter diminished the quality of the former. He said the two gases as supplied in Washington do not mix, aud hence the smoking of the light and the gumming up of the burners, POINTS FROM SATURDAY’S TESTIMONY. The gas inquiry conducted by Senators Spooner and Blackburn last Saturday after- noon, afler THE STAR report closed, developed some points of interest. Senator Spooner asked President McIihenny, of the gas company, to figure the price at whicii gas would have to ‘be sold to yield 6 per cent annually on a capitalization of $1,500,000. “But ‘we can’l figure our capitalization at that,” suggested Mr. MeIIhenny. “You can assume anything,” retorted Mr. Spooner. After ‘making acalculation’ Mr. McIihenny replicd that to yield 6 per cent on that capital gus would be sold at $1.08 per 1,000 cubic feet, “provided,” he added, “everything remains as itis.” ‘Mr. Spooner asked if there was any reason to suppose that the expense of making gas would increase. Mr. McIihenny replied that it was more likely ‘to decrease; that as the demand in- creased the cust of supplying decreased; thas as the distribution increased the expense dimin- ished, aud therefore with the steady growth of Washington and continuing in+ ¢rease of demand the price would be reduced. He said Luat the cost ot making water and coai gas is about the same. In response to questions he explained that the streets are lighied atso much per lamp, it being estimated that each lamp will burn six seet of gas per hour, He believed that was a fair average. There is a little key to each street burner by which the flame is regulated. He ‘Was sure the city was not defrauded by-the use of this key. ‘The gus company employs all the lighters of street lamps aud pays them uni- tormly $28 a month. No boys are employed, but some of the men in cases of sickuess or other emergencies might send out boys todo thelr work. ‘The street lighting 1s under the Supervision of the superintendent of street lamps—a District official. As a ruie Mr. Me- Ilnenny believed that municipalities get more gas for street purposes thau they contract for, CHEAP GAS; HIGH BILLS. Mr. Blackburn said he bad a huge mass of old gas bills handed to him by many respecta- ble people of Washington, with the complaint that as the price of gas had decreased the amount ot their biils had increased. Mr. Melihenny said they were mistaken; that in cases of similar complaints, where examina- tion had been made, it had been shown that there was a proportionate decrease on bills, Mr. Blackburn said that one of the complain- ants was A PROMINENT PRESBYTERIAN MINISTER of this city. Mr, Mellhenny did not regard that as signify- ing anything. Mr. Blackburn said it weighed a good deal with him in tae consideration of this question, Recurring to the street lights, Mr. McIheuny said the flow of gas cauld be restricted aud the light reduced by taking the trouble to turn down the keys in the burners, but he knew of nobody who would go to such pains. It would only be extra trouble tor the lamp lighter, without any compensation for it, They have no orders W thatellect, He said THE GAS COMPANY WOULD BE WILLING TO SELL 17S PLANT, but he could not undertake to say at what price; the directors would have to determine that, He said the works are undoubtedly ‘worth a good deal of money; that they could not be duplicated for $2,400,000. In response to the suggestion that every item which would swell the figures had been included in the valu- ation, Mr. Mellhenny said that was not the case. ’ Being asked if he would object to being uestioned by an expert in gas matters, Mr. Sictiuenny replied ‘that he was willing to be examined, for the committee, by a man of practical Knowledge, but men who had never lade a foot of gas inightask questions he could not answer. If the commitiee wanted experts who knew their business he could suggest some names, but there is a class of men, he said, who go about getting up new gas companies, and they make a practice of criticising old com- nies. Pir. ‘Spooner said the committee wanted to obtain accurate and reliable information. They did not care to cail men who are engaged in the business of making and selling gus, for, nat- urally, their interest biased them to’a certain extent, He asked what Mr. Mcilhenny thought, ot Mr. MeCarthy as a gas mau, ‘The reply was that McCarthy had nevermade gas; that he isa chemist, without the knowledge of the practical manuiacture ot gas. THE SUBJECT OF PROFITS that had accrued to the Washington Gas com- pany was discussed, and Mr. Spooner suggested that, as the company had enjoyed so fruitful & field for so many years, it would only be fair now to Jet the consumers get @ share of the ben- efit. ‘Mr. MeIIhenny replied that the price of gas had been repeatedly reduced. Mr. Spooner thought that ten per cont prot on aby investment these days, everything con- sidered, Is excessive, He sald mousy is loaned on. real estate at six per cent and tbat there is not a railroad in the country that is paying ten cent.
