Conference on the Amendment to the Rock Creek Park Bill. —— ACTION ON OTHER DISTRICT BILLS, es SENATE, The House amendment to the Senate bill es tablishing a public park in the District of Co- lumbia was disagreed to and a conference asked. OTHER DISTRICT MEASURES. Among the bills reported from committees and placed on the calendar were the following: House bill establishing a free public bathing beach on the Potomac river near the Washing- ton monument (substituted for the Senate bull on the same subject); Senate bill for the as- sessment and collection of water main taxes, THE COLUMBIA RIVER BRIDGE. Mr. Mitchell moved to reconsider the vote by which the Senate passed yesterday a bill authorizing the construction of a railway bridge across the Columbia river, near Van- couver. The motion was entered, A TOBACCO PETITION. Mr. Platt presented a petition from tobacco srowers and dealers of the Housatonic Valley, Conn.,in favor of a specific duty of not leas than $2 pound on imported wrappers. Referred to the finance committe ON CONFERENCE, A new conference was ordered on the depen- dent pension bill, and Messrs, Dawes, Sawyer and Blodgett were appointed conferees on the part of the Senate, TRE SILVER DEBATE. The silver bill was taken up and Mr, Plumb addressed the Senate, HOUSE, ‘The silver debate was resumed this morning, Mr. Lind (Minn.) being the first speaker. He represented, he said, an agricultural district, the farmers of which were not poor, but not wholly prosperous, The depressed condition was due to the low prices of agricultural pro- ducts, He believed that prices were affected by the amount of mouey in circulation, Commenting on the three measures before the House, he said that the Treasury bill was the most objectionable. Under a friendly Secretary it might be made useful in increas- ing the volume of the currency, but under an unfriendly Secretary it might be dangerous. _Personally, be believed that the free coinage bill presented not only the best but the quick- est way to settle the question. But he be- lieved that it was best to yield something even to prejudice, if by so doing legislation almost equally efficacious and less objectionable to some classes could be secured. Such a meas- ure was the republican caucus bill. MR, FLOWER TALKS OF SOMETHING ELSE. Mr. Flower (N. Y.) confined his remarks not to the silver question, but to a constitutional amendment relegating to the people, within prescribed localities, the choice of such ndmin- istrative officials whose functions of oftice lie entirely within the prescribed area and whose choice is of consequence only to the people whom they immediately serve, “I advocate,” he said, change in the Con- stitution required bythe altered conditions } under which our government and our people now exist—a change that would be in perfect accord with the broad democratic principles which underlie that instrument.for it will serve to strengthen the government by bringing it back, a8 the framers intended it should always remain nearer to the people. The present system has too — much that attribute of monarchy which centers in the power of onc man the appoint- ment of thousands, which makes officers posi- tion the reward for partisan intrigue, en- genders a lack of responsibility on the par of public officials and consumes too much of the time of executive and legislative officials in securing appointments whicn should be given to the consideration of affairs of state.” TO OFFSET THE CONTRACTION. Mr. Lacey (Iowa) said that the country was met with a contraction of the currency. The banks were calling in cireulation, It might be that figures would showas much money in the United States per capita as there ever had been, but there was an absolute shortage of funds. The pending bill proposed to give the country an increase to offset the contraction and even more, It was practically a free coin- age bill. » MR, WALKER SAYS IT IS NOT 80, Mr. Walker ( Mass.) referred to the argument that there was business depression because of low prices, There was not a word of truth in it, ‘There was not a solitary fact that justified the statements made in favor of free coinage; not one. It was said that the farmers were oppressed, and there were men on the floor who enjoyed “burning corn,” when the fact was that there never was a day since the sun shope on the earth when a farmer could ‘pay off a debt on his farm with as few days’ work as he could today. He asserted that the demonetization of sil- yer was not the cause of a decrease of prices. Prices had been going down for a hundred years, The demonetization of silver had not had the slightest appreciable effect on the de- preciation of prices. More money meaut more misery.

WALKER TAKES HIS COAT OFF, In the course of an argument to show that there was sufficient gold in the world to supply the money demand Mr. Walker was frequently interrupted by Mr. Payson (Ill), Mr. Heard (Mo.) and others. “The energy of ‘his replies, taken in connection with the heat of the day, was too much for Mr. Waiker, and, much to the | merriment of the House, he doffed his coat and proceeded with his speech in his shirt sleeves | In conelusion, he argued that with improved machinery all products had gone down in price more than farm productions. MK, BLOUNT ON SILVER DEMONETIZATION. Mr. Blount (Ga,) contended that silver de- monetization had cast a blighting curse over everybody except the capitalist. This curse was somewhat removed by the act of 1878, and the business of the country began to grow more prosperous. The present contraction of the currency was due to the demonetization act of 1873. To in- crease the ‘yolume of circulation was the only way to relieve not only the agricultural inter- est, but every interest in the country. ND'S PROTEST.

Superintendent Porter is receiving dis- patches from the census supervisors in the Principal cities of the country in regard to the progress of the work of taking the censua. He is informed by the supervisors®in New York city that very few refusals to answer the census questions have as set been reported. In PY delphia there have been up to date only two refusals and in Baltimore none. Some of the supervisors state that the people do not object to any of the questions as much asthey do the one in regard to their age. There isa general disinclination to answer this question. Superintendent Porter expected to find, from the agitation made by some news- papers, that the disease and mortgage indebted- ness questions would be the ones to elicit the liveliest opposition, but it seems that these questions are answered readily, while the age question is the one that the people don't like. Superintendent Porter expre his gratification at the action of one of the Knights of Labor assemblies of the District last even- ing in protesting against opposition to the mortgage indebteness questions, He says that the Knights of Labor were largely instramental in bringing about this inquiry, and they should | now co-op forced, The most sweeping refusal yet brought to the notice of the superintendent is that of a Catholic convent near Jersey City, where the enumerators were retused access and the information deaired was given, A similar case came before th office in the last census, but no action was taken, as an order was obtained from the arch- bishop, an authority which the convent people recognized, and the doors were opencd.

There are few new developments today in the trouble at the Washington Arsenal, in which it 1s alleged Sergt. Clishiam, acting ordnance sergeant, 1s involved, as stated in yesterday's Stan, The board of survey has not yet com- pleted its labors, or at any rate has not yet made a report, so the exact extent of the losses of the government in addition to the two brass howitzers and the 700 pounds of guupowder, reported yesterday isnotknown. Orders reached the command- ing officer at the arsenal this mornin ouven- ing a court martial for the trial of Sergt. Clish- iam next Monday morning between 10 and 11 o'clock, THE NATIONAL GUARD'S AMMUNITION. It was reported this morning that a large amount of ammunition belonging to the Dis- | trict National Guard and stored at the arse- nal was missing, so large an amount in fact as to promise serious interference with the target practice and drill of the men for some time to come. It was impossible to verify this rumor at the arsenal this morning. Cxpt. Hobbs and t. Bennett were away on business and Gen. Gib son told Tux Sra reporter that any such loss had not been reported to him and that he really knew nothing about it, SERGT. CLISHIAM PROTESTS HIS INNOCENCE. Sergt. Clishiam has expressed a decided objection to saying anything about the matter ever since his arrest, although he maintains that he is entirely innocent and will be xon- erated whon the proper time comes, A Sran reporter saw m in front of E bar- racks at the arsenal today and asked him if he cared to say anything for publication. The sergeant seemed decidedly provoked at being spoken to on the matter und declined the re- porter’s invitation without thanks. He simply remarked that he would not say ans- thing about it for Tue Stax nor for anybody else. When the time came for him to appear before a properly constituted court of justice then he would speak out, but not ull then. He promised, however, that when his troubles have blown over, as he was quite sure they soon would, he would make things very lively for the 8 of his good name. DEATH IN THE HEAT. One Fatal Case of Sunstroke—How Children are Affected. Yesterday afternoon while Mr. David Reeves of 139L street was at work repairing a store window on F street he was overcome by the extreme heat. He was unconscious when tuken to the Emergency Hospital His pulse was at 110 and he was suff ing from a severe congestion of the brain. The physicians atthe hospital did all they could for the unfortunate man and worked faithfully with him all night, but he died a little before 8 o'clock this morning, Mr. Reeves was formerly a prominent member of Hamline Church and was superintendent of the Sunday school. He left a family of five children, Their mother died some time ago. No cases of sunstroke were reported at the Emergency Hospital up to 3 o'clock today, and before noon today not a single case of sun- stroke or person overcome by the heat had been reported at the health office. A Srar re- porter learned there that the deaths from diarrheal diseases were on the increase. Dr. Pool said that the large death rate from diarrheal diseases usually occurs between the 15th of June and the 15th of July. A majority of the deaths under that class result from chol- era infantum, which in most cases, the doctor said, result from giving them improper food. Last week there were twenty-one deaths from diarrheal diseases, which is an unusual num- ber for so early a date. During yesterday and today there were seven deaths from such dis- eases reported. ——___ Interior Department Changes.
