Pont Wasunaton, Wis., Dec, 12.—A terrible | and peculiar drowning accident occurred yester- day by which a mother and her three children were drowned at Saukville, on the Milwaukee ‘river. Asix-year-old sonof Claude Augustin , Went to the river bank and ventured out on the ice, It saddenly broke and he fell into the water. His mother heard his cries and rushed | tohis rescue. Frantically throwing herself into the icy water she endeavored to save the drowning boy, Iu few moments she was be- yond her depth and drowning herself, Her seventcen-year-old daughter, Augusta, heard the cries and hastened to the spot. Seeing her mother in the water she rushed to her rescue. The ice broke with herandshe was thrown into the chilling torrent, Mother and daugh- ter locked themselves together in a death struggle and sank beneath the water and ice. ‘They were just disappearing when a four-year- old son of Mrs, Augustin, who had been with the sister, toddled out on the ice. With plain- tive cries of “Mamma, mamma, I want you,” he ran over the ice until he reached the hole in which his mother, his sister and his brother were buried. The little feliow saw his mother and sister sink and threw himself, as he eup- poset. into tis mother’s arms. In an instant e was carried beneath the ice. A man named Christian Nelsen saw the tragedy, but was powerless to render any aid. He was on the rotten ice and broke in several times before he reached the oe where the family had been wiped out. When he finally got there they had disappeared. The body of Mrs. Augustin was recovered, but the bodies of the children can- not be found. i CRIME’S CALE DAR, SNATCHED A SHERIFF'S BAG. Wuezuixe, W.

THE SILCOTT DEFALCATION. Mr. Payson’s Resolution and the Dis- cussion On It. In the House this afternoon, after the report in the first edition closed, Mr. Payson of Illinois immediately upon the conclusion of the reading of the report offered ® resolution for which he asked immediate consideration, authorizing the committee not to examine the accounts of the sergeant-at-arms’ office and to report thereon. but to take charge of all the assets of the office until the further order of the House; to receive any | from Mr. Lee- dom, orany one with authority toact for him, for making good any deficiency; and also to make fall report as to the effect of any deficiency, and especially as to any unpaid 3 of the membersof this House,accompanying the report with a billif necessary, Mr. Payson said that the concluding paragraph of the report of the select committee was the explanation for the offering of the resolution. Quite a number of members of the House having been advised yesterday evening after adjourn- ment of the conclusion to which the committee hed arrived that, under the appointing resolution, its jurisdiction ended | with simply stating the account, it was thought ad- visable that the resolution of this character should be prevented. It was thocgnt that the committee which ad already investigated the office could with more propriety and perhaps with better efliciency and great celerity take charge of the matter. There seemed to be two opinions prevailing that the sergeant-at-arms was disbursing officer, and —_that he was not, but was simply the agent of the individual members of the House. Speaking only for himself, he believed—and had no more doubt about it than about any other matter in regard to which he had ever reached @ conclusion, that the late sergeant-at-arms was a disbursing officer of this body, and that the loss, whutever there might be, growing out of this unfortunate transaction was a loss the government should carry. For the pres- ent there seemed to be an absolute necessity that the sum of money in the safe should be in the custody of somebody in whom the House had absolute confidence, Mr. Bland (Mo.) said that if the sergeant-at- arms wasa disbursing officer of the govern- ment, a part of the treasury system itself, the money belonged to the government ‘and should be in the custody of the Treasury. How had the House by a committee or otherwise a right to take custody of that money unless the sergeant-at-arms had been acting as its agent? Mr. Payson said that the answer was this: The money was there and there was a dispute as to who had control over it, The Treasury disclaimed respousibility. It could not be given to the new nor to the old sergeant-at-arms, and the thing seemed to stand as a waif, nobody claiming to have charge of it. He did not by this resolution propose or assert which view of the sergeant- at-arms’ office was right or lpsia b but simply proposed to placed this money, in which the louse had an undivided interest, in the hands ofsomebody in whom the House had conti- dence. Mr. Bree anridze (Ky.) asked what right, under th vastitution or statute, the Ilouse had to take possession of the money. If* the sergeant-at-arms was @ dis bursing officer, then his duty was to turn it over to his successor; if it was the individual money of the mem- bers of the House it was the duty of that officer to pay it to members in such proportions as he thought they were entitled to, aud if he did not do this, to take legal steps to recover it, W. Payson answered that it was because the House found the money in its possession, or in the possesion of one of its agents. It was in a government ollice in a sate provided by the government, aud nobody would assums legal responsibility for its care, IF THERE WAS A QUESTION OF DOUBT, he preferred that the money in which he was interested should be illegally in custody where it would be safe than in the custody of gentlemen who might possibly treat it as Silcott treated the money which was gone. Nobody could possibly be in- jured by the passage of the resolution, Mr, Breckinridge (Ky.) suggested that if the House gave the funds into the charge of the committee it instantly discharged Mr. Leedom’s bondsmen, Mr. Payson Seopa that that question had been considered by some of the lawyers of the House aud they had concurred that the legal status of affuirs would not be altered. Mr. McComas (Md.) suggested that the res- olution be so amended as to request the Treasurer of the United States to receive the assets of the sergeant-at-arms’ office as # spe- cial deposit, Mr. Paysun replied that he understood it was the purpose of the committee, in case the reso- lutions were adopted, to take the responsibil- ity on itself of having the funds deposited in the Treasury as a special deposit, A SUBSTITUTE RESOLUTION, After further discussion Mr. Boutelle (Me.) then offered as a substitute for Mr. Payson’s resolution a resolution directing the com- mittee to report as to the effect or result of eny deficiency in the cash of the sergeant-at-arms’ office, and especially as to unpaid salaries to members: accompanying their report with a bili if necessary. ‘THE SUBSTITUTE ADOPTED. The resolution was adopted, as was also one offered by Mr. Hemphill (8.0.), directing Sergeant-at-arms Holmes to arrange with the Treasury department for the payment of the mileage of members and delegates. ; Mr. Payson subsequently offered a resolution transferring the funds to the custody of the committee, but it wus defeated. ADJOURNED TO MONDAY, The House adjourned until Monday. a se° SWINDLER. AN ALLEGED Arrested on a Requisition of Gov. Beaver of Pennsylvania, States Attorney J. W.

Senator Ingalls, who was a decidedly antl-Fuller man when that gentleman was nominated as chief justice, was a very close listener yesterday and watched the speaker from pogans toend. Toa Srar re- porter who asked him what he thought of the dress the Kansas Senator said: ‘I confess with some contrition that I was agreeably dis- appointed.

He says that the plumbers of this District in the trausuction of their busi- ness with the engineer department are con- fronted with a more arbitrary sct of regula- tions and more petty annoyances than would be tolerated in any other city, and the officers having the immediate supervision over these matters, he says, do not appear to be clothed with any discretionery power that will alow them to make departures from these rules, even when it would ve to the advantage of the public to do so, de says that af this cut at 2220 M street has been allowed to stand nearly six months without repairing it is « neglect of public duty.
