A Stam re- porter, after an investigation, found that there Wes no truth in the rumor. Mr. John W.

On motion of Mr. Hawley the resolution to int the inaugural addresses of all the Presi- Dents was recommitted to the committe on printing. 3 Mr. Hoar moved to take up the election out- rages resolution, and Mr. Harris demanded the yeas and nays on that motion. Agreed to: Yeas, 28; nays, 26; (a party vote). Mr. Gorman took the floor, but yielded to a motion of Mr. Allison to proceed with the con- sideration of THE SUNDRY CIVIL APPROPRIATION BILL, The resolution was therefore laid aside; and the consideration of the sundry civil bill re- sumed—the question being on Mr. Hiscocks amendment, offered yesterday, appropriating $300,000 for expenses of the celebration of the centennial of the Constitution. Mr. Hoar offered a substitute for the amend- ment, and it was agreed to without discussion or division. It declares Tuesday, 30th April, 1889 (the anniversary of the inauguration of the first President of the United States, George Washing- ton), anational holiday throughout the United States; provides for the assembling of both Houses in the hall of the Honse of resenta- tives on the second Wednesday of December, 1889, when (under an arrangement by a joint committee) suitable ceremonies are to be had in further commemoration of that historic event; authorizes the joint committee to sit the recess and to invite officers of the United States and of the ‘tive states and (through the Secretary of State) representa- tives of foreign governments to attend, and also to invite the Chief Justice to delivera suitable address on the occasion; and it appro- riates $3,000 to defray the expenses of the Joint committee and of carrying out its ar- rangements, ir. Mitchell offered an amendment (which was agreed to) appropriating $6,300 for a tele- ‘aph cable ee nautical miles) between Cape Wistincy oud Tateyoch Ieland. THE GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE AMEND- MENT. ‘The bill was reported back to the Senate, and all the amendments were agreed to, in gross, except that one for the purchase of land for additional accommadations for the government rinting office. On this amendment Mr. Vest demanded a separate vote, and he made an argument against the amend- ment, declaring that there was no locality in Washington so objectionable for a public build- ing as that where the government printing of- fice stood; that 1t was the malarious condition of the neighborhood which was complained of by the superintendent of public printing; that | it was now proposed to buy the remainder of the block, and that the whole cost of the im- provement would amount (he had not the least doubt) to a million dollars, All that the pub- lic printer, he said, asked was anappropriation of £50,000 for a storehouse. ‘Mr. Gorman replied to Mr. Vest, and advo- cated the amendment. Mr. Vest asked him whether he thought, in the face of the public printer’s statement as to unhealthy and malarious character of the local- ity, that the proposed purchase should be made. Mr. Gorman said he was not going into the question of its sanitary condition. THE LOCATION OF THE PRINTING OFFICE might have been unfortunate; but it was there and no body in Congress or out of Congress would think of proposing a new building in an- other section and abandoning that immense affair constructed ata cost of a million dollars. Besides all the operatives in that establishment had their little es in the neighborhood. ‘The only practical therefore, was to ac- quire property for an ement of the build- ing, and to put up an addition which would be fireproof ventilated. Mr Voorhees expressed his opiniou that the subject of MALARIA IN WASHINGTON WAS GREATLY EXAG- GERATED. With due precaution and the observance of the laws of health, people could enjoy as good health in Washington as anywhere else. The result of indiscretions, late hours, and excesses of every kind was cl d up to ma- Sa. Senay, by who not know what else to assign it to. So he disposed to set down the public printer’s idea as to the sanit condition of the locality at about the same He had never been in the it printing office without a discomfort and a) It was a low, dark, ———— wind on prairies, a dirgrace to have the tremendous work of the govern- ment printing carried on in that dark, Telegrams to The Star.

NO ESCAPE FOR THE WHITES. Seventy-five Families at the Mercy of Well-armed Kootenai Savages. Missouna, Moyt., Feb, 22.—The excitement over the threatened outbreak of the reds on the border is growing hourly more intense. Dispatches have been passing between General Ruger at St. Paul pets the officers of Fort As- sinaboine and other posts in this neighborhood, and it is understood troops have been ordered ready to move ata moment's notice. John 8. Roberts, partner of the late J. E. Clifford, killed at Flathead lake by the Indians, is here and says of the fight: “The savages laid in wait for him and shot him. They feared him too much to do it openly. The Indians who did the deed are Kootenais and not Flatheads, as stated. The Flatheads are allies of the whites, and their proud boast is that they never killled @ white man.” The place where this all took place is known as the Upper Flathead country, and is com- —— of the small settlements of Selish, Egan, eweraville and Ashley, Thirty miles beyond Ashley is the place known as Tobacco Plain where the Indians live, and that is but forty miles from the Canadian line, AT THE MERCY OF THE SAVAGES. There are about 75 white families in all and about 2,000 Kootenai Indians. The Indians are all armed with Martini-Henry rifles, and if any outbreak should occur the whites are ut- terly defenceless, They are 120 miles from the Northern Pacific road at Ravalli. At this time there is an abundance of snow, and travel to the railroad would be almost impossible. They would be butchered before getting one-third of the way. In the summer they could take the steamer on the lake and thus escape. The men are prepared in a way to resist an attack if they can get their wives and children out of harm’s way. The Indians get their ammu- nition from the Canadian line, and are always well supplied. Dewersville, where Clifford was killed, is a miserably small place. It consists of Grigg cabin, the cabin occupied by the ferryman, and the United States land-office, Clifford's store and hotel anda liquor store. "The place is a veritable trap, and if an outbreak occurs the whites cannot escape. Frequent appeals have been made for a company of soldiers, TROUBLE AT AN IDAHO POINT. Great excitement also prevails at Pocatello, Idaho, on account of the closing of all places of business on the reservation by order of the Indian agent, acting under instructions from Washington, ' Special notices are being posted on business houses, declaring them closed, and the buildings erected since September 1, 1888, subject to confication, thereby rendcring 2,000 people homeless. That it is the deter- mination of the citizens to prevent the Indian police from destroying their property is very manifest. Strenuous efforts are being made to settle the difficulty, and if that is not accom- plished there may be trouble. —_——— ATTACKING TIRARD’S CABINET. Most of the Paris Papers Show Hostility Toward the New Ministry. Pants, Feb. 22.—The Paris press receives the new cabinet coldly. The Republique Francaise says it will demand from M. Tirard, the new rime minister, what it demanded from M. Floquet, the late premier. The Journal des Debats says the composition of the cabinet renders impossible a clearly de- fined Program and a firm policy. The radical journals sneer at the ministry, declaring that it was drawn from the minority. The republican and conservative papers openly express hostility toward the gabinet. La Presse says the new cabinet appointments are in defiance of the wishes ot the country. M. Decrais, the French ambassador at Vienna, was offered the portfolio of foreign affairs, wferanecvar ns ase Wrecked on the Chinese Coast. THE CREW OF AN UNFORTUNATE BRITISH VESSEL MOBBED AND ROBBED BY CHINAMEN. Sax Francisco, Feb, 22.—Advices from China nd Japan per steamer Gaelic state that the itish whip Anglo-Indian, Capt. Cattanach, | Liverpool, was grounded, January 6, a few miles from the shore of China, near Tamsui. ‘The captain stated that the vessel left Shang- hai, where she had been unloading her cargo of kerosene oil from New York on January 3, to proce. . to Hoilo, to load sugar for England. While the vessel was running before a strong northeast wind, making about twelve knots an hour, the ship’ went aground on a sandbank with great force. The second mate and eight of the crew took a boat and pulled for the shore. On-landing they were surrounded b: about Pape —— os mobbed them and took ay their clothes. They were subsequently taken care of by the officials from thet consulate, who sent them on to Tamsui. On Tuesday, January 8, persons returned to the village from the scene of the wreck, and re- ported that the vessel had been burned, and nothing was known of the captain and the re- mainder of the crew, 23 in all, and all Euro- It was thought, however, that they left ipwrwe apm 12-ton cutter and the large lifeboat, made their toa it on the mainland. epdeeaets: TREN eae be Forty-Two Lives Lost at Sea. it B Pyah Pebnet bh) with the of traits light, The Pyah yy minutes.
