Troubles never come singly! Scarcely has Secretary Blaine begun to recover from his terrible affliction in the loss of his eldest son before there comes before him the threat of an equally crushing blow. Mrs. Coppinger, his eldest daughter, wife of Lieut. Col. John J, Coppinger, eighteenth infantry, whose slight ill- ness from a supposed malarial attack was men- tioned in Te Srar a few days ago, is now ly- ing in a most critical condition, so dangerous that the physicians who attended a conference at her bedside this morning hold out but little | hope to her sorrowing parents and relatives, | Her aifiliction is a relapse of a brain trouble from which she suffered severely some months ago. The lower portion of the brain is affected to an extent that renders the last resorts necessary. As stated, her indisposition was at first attributed to malaria, and no alarm whatever was felt for her health, She was weak and languid and was forced to remain very quiet, but it was confi- dently expected that she would soon recover. At 6 o'clock this morning, however, unmis- takable symptoms of brain disease appeared and from that moment her life has been in the balance. Dr. Magruder was summoned immediately, and he made a sufficiently rapid diagnosis of the case to learn that heroic measures were necessary. Other physicians were called in and after a consultation cups and leeches were Ia: ea WASHINGTON LOAN AND TRUS’ MEPANY, CAPITAL 31,000,000.

But the Speaker Pursues the Even Tenor of His Way. THE HOUSE. That the public at iarge understood the con- test inthe House was notended by yester- day's republican victory was made manifest by a glance at the galleries this morning. Half an hour beforo noon every nook and cranny was filled with spectators and the cor- ridors outside the gallery doors were crowded with expectant throngs patiently awaiting an opportunity to be admitted. The spectators an to arrive at the Capitol as early as 8 o'clock this morning. On the floor there was an air of subdued excitement, especially on the democratic side, where Mr. Carlisle was sur- rounded by a number of leading members of his party consulting as to the course to be pursued. THE BLIND CHAPLAIN’S SIGNIFICANT PRAYER, In his prayer the chaplain said: ‘Grant us, O Lord, that we fall not into any sin, neither into any kind of danger, but that all our doings, be- ing ordered by Thy government, may be right- eous in Thy sight.” The clerk, Feoreesing in the usual manner to read an abridged journal (omitting the detailed vote), Mr. Bland (Mo.) demanded the read- ing of the document in full, and this was ordered by the Speaker. ‘The clerk was proceeding to read from the record the detailed votes of yesterday when Mr. Outhwaite (Ohio) objected and demanded that the reading should be from the original document, ‘The Speaker said that the clerk was reading from the record asa matter of convenience, but if the gentleman objected he might have his way, and he instructed the clerk accord- ingly. ‘The reading of the journal was not completed until 12:50, and immediately Mr. McKinley of Ohio moved that the journal be approved ‘and on that motion demanded the previous ques- tion, A QUESTION OF RULES. Mr. Springer interjected a motion to adjoury, saying that he didso to enable the committee on rules to bring in a code of rules, The Speaker—The gentleman is not in order in speaking on a motion to adjourn. Mr. Springer—There are no rules for the House, ‘The Speaker—There are rules for the House. Mr. Springer—Where are they? ‘The Speaker—The rules that govern parlia- mentary assemblies and those rules distinctly declare that a motion to adjourn is not debat- able, of which the gentleman is perfectly aware. . THE SAME OLD TACTICS, The motion to adjourn was lost—yeas, 135; nays, 162, and the question recurring on the demand for the previous question the yeas and nays were ordered. The democrats again pursued their policy of not voting and the Speaker once fore pursued his method of jotting down the names of members present ‘and not voting. The vote having been taken the Speaker directed the clerk to enter on the journal the names of several members present but not vot- ing. Mr. Bland immediately arose and de- manded that the vote be announced before the names were read, but the Speaker calmly ig « nored him and proceeded to call the names notwithstanding. ‘MR. BLAND'S VIGOROUS PROTEST, in which he declared that the Speaker might be deaf to his appeal, but that it was on ac- count of a tyranny that this House was getting ick and tired of. ‘The Speaker, paying no__ attention to Mr. Bland’s’ indignation, directed the clerk "to enter the | names of the following members on the journal as present and not voting: Messrs. Barnes, Bland, Breckinridge (Ark.), McRae, McCreary, Me- Millin, Oates, O’Ferrall, Outhwaite, Price, Say- ers, Stewart (Ga.), Stone (Ky.), Tillman and Turner (Ga.) He’ then declared the demand for the previous question carried—yeas, 160; nays, 0—amid the LOUD PROTESTS OF THE DEMOCRATS. The Speaker (calmiy)—The previous ques- tion is ordered and the question is on the ap- proval of the journal. Mr, Bynum (Ind.) moved to adjourn, but the Speaker declined to recognized him and again put the motion on the approval of the journal. MR, BLAND SAYS IT 18 AN OUTRAGE. Mr. Bland demanded the yeas and nays (which were ordered) and, pending this, moved to adjourn, But the Speaker was deaf to thi® motion, which called forth the declaration from Mr. Springer that this was tyranny simple and unadulterated, and the further declaration from Mr. Biand that it was an outrage and that the House could not be in a more demoralized condition than the Speaker. ANOTHER STORM soon swept over the House, caused by a vigor- ous protest from Mr. Bynum, in which he at- tacked the Speaker, calling forth cheer after cheer from the democrats. LOCAL TRUST ORGANIZATIONS. Hearing Before the House District Committee Today. ARGUMENTS OF MEMBERS OF THE DISTRICT BAR ASSOCIATION AGAINST CHARTERING THE NEW COMPANIES AND OF MR. B, H. WARNER IN FAVOR OF THE WASHINGTON TRUST COMPANY. The subject of trust organizations was before the House District committee today to a large extent. The full committee was in attendance, and the various arguments were listened to with attention. Yesterday, as stated in Tae Star, several representatives of the vari- ous trust organizations seeking charters from Congress were heard by the judiciary subcommittee of the main committee. The question was looked upon as of so much im- portance that today the entire committee were called together, The bar association was rep- resented by a special committee a) ted for the urpose = of oppes the granting of certain te in subject. The companies were not necessary. They aia not reduce the commissions and in- creased the risk. ARGUMENT OF MR. H. E. DAVIS. H. E. Davis said the method proposed was artificial, when a perfectly natural method was working satisfactorily. At any rate, a general law should be framed. Allow that the incorporators of ® company were re- putable, for how long would the Death, rosie ning of tock were all ith, resignation, se! were factors in placing the trast in the hands af an entirely different setof men from those to whom ‘they were intrusted. From the known and reachable you were to the unknown and = intangible. The danger of defalcation would be eer increased, The guardian at present could only rob one person and there were two sureties for protection, but the trust company would have any amount of rope, and it was well known that the great shame of the day was the tremendous defalcations of financial men. MR. WARNER ON THE OTHER SIDE. B. H. Warner spoke in favor of the granting of the charter. All they wanted was the priv- ilege to form partnership and be on an equal footing with the corporations of Boston, New York and Philadelphia, in which cities the trust companies were monuments of fidelity and business prudence and sagacity. Mr. Worthington was the last speaker. THE FIGHT STILL ON. Democratic Members, Encouraged by Randall, Will Stick to Their Point. The fight in the House did not end with the vote before adjournment last night to sustain the Speaker. The democrats are de- termined to carry on the fight until they are exhausted or overpowered. The word that went along the line this morning was: “Keep cool, but keep up the fight.” The great anx- iety of the democratic leaders is that their men should all maintain an appearance of calm- ness however they feel. What they wantisto have one man at a time insist upon recognition for questions of personal privilege and points of order, and to keep on insisting whether recog- nized or not, as Springer did yesterday. Mr. Mills appeared in the House today, and he and Carlisle, with Crisp, Springer, Holman, McMillan, Breckinridge and others, held a long conicrence. COUNSELED BY MR. BANDALI. They have got fresh encouragement from Mr. Randall, The Pennsylvania chief reads the papers carefully and keeps posted on the proceedings in Congress, When the fight started up he for the first time expressed a wish that he could be in his seat. He wrote a letter to Mr. Carlisle, full of encouragement, telling him to keep up _ the fight, not to yield before anything, and saying he wished he were able to be in his place to help him. Members who have been to his house to consult with him have come away set in the determination never to give up the fight. The spirit of the old warrior who fought off the force bill has been transferred to them. They do not propose to cease their fight within the length of the session, though there may be times when they will be helpless to pre- vent action by the majority. REPUBLICANS READY TO GO AHEAD. The republicans were on hand, cool and con- fident, determined to take up the election case, and regarding the question of the Speaker's ower to counta “silent” quoram as settled nally. Mr. Dalzell was prepared to call up the election case and to proceed with it in the ordinary course of business, making his argument on the start Under the old rules of the House it was permissible to raise the question of con- sideration against a measure at the beginning of each legislative day, but it is held now by the majority that there is no such right or privilege under general parliamentary usage, 80 that the question of consideration is re- garded as already settled, CAPITOL COMMITTEE ROOMS. Work Steadily Goesonin Them Regard- less of the Hubbub in the Hause. DEVELOPMENT OF TRADE WITH THE AMERICAS. Chairman Baker laid before the House com- mittee on commerce today a letter from the Secretary of State transmitting a communica- tion from the minister from Ecuador speaking of the possibility of the de- velopment of @ vast trade between the United States and Ecuador and other countries of Central and South America and suggesting that Congress might contribute to the exten- sion of commerce by authorizing one or more government vessels to be laden with the products of the United States and sent to the principal ports of those countries for exhibit. ‘The communication was referred to a sub- committee. AGAINST REPEAL OF THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE LAW. The House committee on commerce today signified its disposition toward efforts to repeal the interstate commerce law by ordering that all bills with that end in view be reported back to the House with the recommendation that they lie on the table. A DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS CALLED, Acall for a caucus of the democratic Repre- sentatives is being circulated for signature and @ caucus will probably be held tonight. THE ALABAMA CONTEST.

Boardman, Erastus Corning, James Wood and Ellis H. Roberts, Speaker Husted ruled that unless the report received sixty-five votes the world’s fair bill was irretrievably beaten.

He said: “It has been all mere supposition that I was in the field asa candidate for the sénatorship. I have never said that I wasa candidate. The feeling be- tween Senator Voorhees and myself is friendly and I shall give him my hearty support.” — THE “MILE SQUARE.” Boomers Ready for a Grand Rush When the Sioux Land is Opened Up. Fr. Pierre, 8.D., Jan. 21.—Fort Pierre is somewhat excited waiting the proclamation opening the reservation, Large companies of boomers have organized across the river, pre- paratory to making a grand rush when the time comes. Preparations have been made for the immediate organization of several counties, even going so far as to determine on their oflicers, and, owing to the fact that there arc several organizations, some counties will be favored with two sets of officers. Every conceivable scheme is being resorted to by the Pierre boomers to capture the town site of Fort Pierre. The officers in charge of the sol- diers here have received orders not to molest the squatters on the “Mile square,” but to pre- vent any further settlement thereon from out- side partics. An order has been posted to the effect that persons on the reservation prior to last August may stay, but others are intruders and under suspicion. —— Capt. Anson Reads O’Brien’s Decision.

He hascome to that conclusion as the result of reading Judge O'Brien's decision. “But,” said he, “I don’t think the members of that law committee are fools, and when they say they are going ahead with the suits I believe they think they have good reason to do so. One thing I do know; A. G. Spalding wants the matter settled. He wants the courts to say whether the present contract will hold a ball player, and if it won't what kind of a con- tract will, and I don’t think he'll stop until he finds out.” Good-Bye, San Franc’ Chicago, et al.

Up te noon Poll had not got bondmeen, 4 DEPOSITORS WILL BE PROTRCTED. The outlook at present is that the depositors of the Sixth national, the Lenox Hill and the Equitable banks will shortly receive in full the money due them. Two or three wealthy busi- bess men who had been deceived into allowing these schemers to get control of the banks im question have pledged themselves to make good any deficiency in the money due deposit- ora, Bank Examiner Hepburn this motning would not be interviewed about the affairs of the Sixth national. His representative said Mr, Hepburn was hard at work preparing the de- tailed statement which he expects to forward tonight to the controller of the curpency at Washington. He corroborated the report that Mr. Charies H. Leland, the late president of the bank, had given a guarantee to Mr. Hepburn that he would see that the depositors were all paid in full. One of the book keepers of the bank stated to a reporter that Cashier Colston’s prompt action had prevented wreck- ing of the bank, and that in’ addition to Mr. Leland’s guarantee the securities held by the bank were sufficient to save those who had im- trusted their money to the institution. TEMPORARILY CLOSED, At10 o'clock this morning u small card was placed on the front door of the Equitable bank, bearing the announcement: “This bauk is temporarily closed.” It was reluctantly laced there by Cashier Colston, who had een hoping against hope all the morning that the bauk could remain open for busi- ness. State Bank Superintendent Preston had met Mr. Colston at the bank an hour earlier and told him that the bank should NOt resume at 10 o'clock, the usual opening hour, unless President Taliman had made | good his promise to produce 50.000 in cash by that time. Cashier Colston said: “President Tallman is a retired builder and a man of wealth, He is determined that the bank shall notgo under, After a talk with State Superin- tendent Preston last night he and Mr. Meyer, one of the directors, started out to raise the mon But $50,000 in cash is a great deal of money to raise even on good securities and they have doubtless been delayed. I have no doubt, however, that we shall again open for business this afternoon or tomorrow morning.” ———ieeoss THEY REALLY ARE ENGLISH. Something About British Monomania for American Breweries and Mills. Curcaco, Jan. 31.—Edward Crewsdon of London, England, who has “promoted” several of the sales of American brewerivs, mills and elevators to English syndicates, was at the Sherman house yesterday. He bas been in the Rocky mountains and is making a burried trip to London. __ “it is hard for me to understand why Amer- ican newspapers aud people heap abuse on Ene glish syndicates,” said he. “This country is new and it needs money. England has lots of money which it is wiing to use in this country terms advantageous to Americans. The Amer- ican people are tue gainers in every transaction that has been made by the English syndicates, but they do not seem te know it, “The Trastecs’ sud Executors’ company of London and the city of London contractors make it their business to seatter wealth, They send representatives or promoters all over the world to make arrangements for the purchase of mauufactorics or mines, These men satisfy themselves that the business they” are about to purchase is really a paying one. As far as I know the deals | that have been made in America have all been rotituble except the purchase of the Detroit reweries, The syndicate lost money on that deal because tt was bard to market the stock im England. The purchase of the St, Louis brew- eries was particularly good deal. The stock is now quoted $7 above par in England.” —— MISSISSIPPI AND THE NEGRO.

This morning in the ‘ice Court Mr. Du- mont called Judge Miller's attention to charges of keeping unlicensed bars against Louis Ze- rega and William Nicholson, who have applicas tious pending before the Commissioners, Judge Miller remarked that the prosecutions were instituted by the very persons who bold the $100 deposited in cach case by the defend- ants and have their applications under consid- eration. Both Mr. Carrington and Mr, Wil- liams, who appeared for the defendants, argued that the court ought not to permit any such prosecutions, Mr. Williams cited an act of the legislative assembly passed January 19, 1872, which he claimed regulated the matter of depositing cole lateral while the applications are under consid- eration. Mr. Williams argued that if the court im; da fine on any such defendant the ju mut of the court would be rendered void when the application was acted upon. WHAT A COMMISSIONER SAzD, Mr. Williams said that a District Commis sioner told him yesterday that if the applica- tion was refused the amount of license for the time during which the application was would be deducted from the deposit. Mr. Wi liams said that it was in the power of the Com- missioners to grant the license in ten minutes, as it doesn’t take that time to read the ic. “What do they do?” asked Mr. Williams, “They remain silent. They will not they will grant the license or not, say their attorney: ‘Go into court and prosecate, We have his $100, and when the court fines will deduct the i | ah Hh | E | let Hy it iH “™
