MEMBERS ADSENT TUEMSELVES TO BREAK A QUO- RUM—ME. CANNOX PROPOSES TO PUT THEM ON RECORD —INDIONANT PROTESTS AND A PRETTY SHARP DISCUSSION. The opponents of the lard bill succeeded in Preventing action on it yesterday by resorting to a new method of filibustering. A call of the House disclosing the presence of a quorum, aroll call immediately afterward showed no quorum present. This was because members absented themselves from the hall for the pur- pose of breaking a quorum when the vote was on the lard bill. Mr. Cannon made a list of mombers who were present but lett the hall when a vote was ordered, and recited the names in a preamble revoking leaves of absence. This provoked indignant protests from members whose names were xo reported, and from some whose names were not on the list aud who were advocates of the lard bill. Messrs, Crain, Vaux, Flower, Hatch, Blount, Wheeler, Osborne, Cummings, ‘Turner of New York and several others criti- cised Mr. Cannon's action severely, and sev- eral sharp tilts occurred. MR. CANNON DEFENDS HIS RESOLUTION. Mr. Cannon, in justification of his course, said that he offered the resolution not for the purpose of censuring anybody. It recited two facts—first, that the House had found itself without a quorum twice during the day, and second, that there had been two calls of the House, and that upon those calls more than a quorum had responded; but that after the pro- ceedings were dispensed with a quorum could not be found in the House. There was nothing in the preamble except a recital of the facts as shown by the Record. The gentleman from Georgia said that it was a censure, He (Mr. Cannon) could take issue with the gentleman on that point; but if it were a censure it was a censure based upon the facts. He recited those facta for the purpose of showing the necessity for the adoption of the resolution, namely. that one moment the House had a quorum, and further, what was absolutely patent to everybody, that between the call of the House and the call of the roll MEMBERS BY THE SCORE DISAPPEARED into the cloak rooms and the lobbies. Mr. Crain of Texas—Have not they got that right? Mr. Cannon—Have notI the right to recite the fact and let their constituents judge of their right? Mr. Vaux of Pennsylvania—Mave you a right to impute motives? ‘That is not the parlia- mentary power of the majority in this House until the empire comes. [Applause on the democratic side. Air..Crain—Did you not threaten to lock the doors and compel us to stay here until the bill rmaptisced? iy, Cxnnon, not noticing the question, sald that before this Congress gentlemen had bustered and broken quorums sitting in their seats. Mr. Flower of New York (interrupting)—So did you, Your party is now leading the fili- bustering. THE GALLED JADE WINCES, Mr. Cannon—The galled jade winces, [Langh- ter.] Now, for the first time since the adoption of the new rules, with the federal election bill and the tariff bili and other important bills passed, when this bill, which prevents the counterfeiting of food products—[{Here his voice was drowned by applause and laughter on the democratic side.) For the first time, continued Mr. Cannon. in this session a new order of filibustering takes place. (Renewed laughter and applause on the democratic side. } Men answered to the call of their names on the call of the House and march out of the chamber the moment the vote is taken on the pending question. [Renewed laughter.) I want here awd now to rescind leaves of ab- sence. I want to telegraph to members who are absent that their place is here and that their leaves of absence are rescinded. [Ap- Piause on the republican side.} I want more than this. I want this preamble to call atten- tion to the record—to tell the exact facts, noth- ing more or less. Because, so far as I cau, as a member of this House, this bill must be voted upon if I can get it votedupon. (lenewed ap- plause.} Mr. Hatch, as an earnest advocate of the bill against which the filibusters are operating, disapproved of Mr. Cannon's course. Mr. Osborne. who was on the list, attacked Mr. Cannon vehemently. asserting that he had been present and had yoted on every roll call. Members on every hand took partin the wordy scrimmage. NO APOLOGIES TO MAKE. Mr. Crain of Texas got the floor and said that being one of them, he claimed his right to reply to that censure. So far as he was personally concerned, he had no apologies to make to anybody, whether he be a humble member, like himself, or the honorable chair- man of ‘the committee on appropriations, the lieutenant of the Speaker, who, in his absence, attempted to control everything that went on, not only within the chamber, but outside of it, with how much accuracy could be drawn from the fact that his statement had been contro- verteton his own side of the house. [Ap- planse.] He (Crain) was responsible to his constituents alone, Mr. Henderson of Iowa mado the point of order that the gentleman was not talking to a question of personal privilege. Mr. Crain—Yes, 1am. I have been charged with impropriety in my official capacity. Mr. Henderson—Nothing in this resolution can be construed into a censure. Mr. Crain—The chairman of the committee on appropriations must be in a sad plight when he requires the assistance of the able and fiery gentleman from Iowa. [Laughter.] Mr. Henderson—I will do what I please, WILL NOT BE BULLDOZED. Mr. Crain—You cannot bulldoze personally or through the chairman of the committee on appropriations. This is nothing but a petty species of bulldozing, the object being to reaten us in order to compel us to vote. I believe if we had adopted this line of pro- cedure when the so-called Lodge bill was before the House it would not now be in the Senate awaiting consideration. I say the “so-called” Lodge bill because I beheve that the author was not Lodge, but that he was only the wet ni [Laughter.} Iam responsible to my constituentsalone. I went out of the chamber intentionally to avoid being counted as present and not voting. Ieven took my hat and um- brella away, because I have heard it asserted that clerks and pages were sent to the cloak rooms to hunt up hats and umbrellas in order that the Spenxer might count hats and umbrel- las present and not voting. (Laughter.] I had the right to do that. I have the right to do that whenever I please. I ask the chairman of the committee on appropriations if he did not threaten me and another member on this side if we continued to do what we were doing that he would see that the chamber was locked up and we were compelled to stay here as prisoners, The charge was made that the democrats of the south were depriving the negro of the right to vote and refusing to count his ballot when cast; but no man in the south had ever done or attempted to do what the Spesker, backed by the majority, had done in the House, and that was to count the votes of men who actually had not voted, It was to avoid this that the men who thought the lard bill ought not to had gone out of the chamber, They had aright todo thatand no censure that could be put upon them would stop them. ° WILL VIOLATE THE HOUSE RULES. Mr. Burrows of Michigan—Is not the gentle- man aware that he was violating one of the rules of the House in going out? Mr. Crain—It is perfectly immaterial to me whether I did or not. If I sit in my chair and am counted as voting when I did not vote, I will get out of my chair, Mr. Burrows—The gentleman publicly de- prem he is going to violate one of the ‘Crain—For that I am responsible to a : ‘or am my constituents alone. Mr. Burrows—This is a violation of one of the rules of the House. For this you do not — to your constituents, but to the jouse, Mr. Crain—I am not to be censured uniees I'am Wlod and feanh ett. ‘ou do, they are farmers who produce cot- Toc coed oll, between @uich odd yore land there is no more comparison than between heaven and heil. Lsvetter.) Mr. Hen \—Then put it on the market ——_ oh poe Beaman, (Republican spplause. ir. Turner of New York then got the floor and talked until adjournment, THEY ASK “RECOGNITION.” A Lively Convention of Colored Rorth Carolina Republicans. A state convention of colored men met at Raloigh, N. C., yesterday. The delegates were among the ablest negroes in the state. James H. Young called the convention to order and said ite purpose was neither child’s play nor the disruption of the republican party, but to make all men, from the President to the smallest officeholder, understand that the negroes demand the! rights and privileges to which they are entitled. The negroes, he said, met now as the real republican party of North Carohns and will never get any recognition until they thus demand it, Their purpose is not to draw the color line, but to de- mand in plam language that the negro must be recognized in the distribution of patronage. John 8. Dancy read the call for the convention, in which the committee states that for twen ree Phe the negroes have voted wildly. mith, ex-minister to Liberia, was made temporary chairman. CHEATHAM COLDLY RECEIVED. Acall was made for Cheatham, the negro Congressman from the second district, but e: Minister Smith made a speech bitterly opposing the call, and said that he did not want to hear Cheatham, who bad opposed the convention, and he positively refused to hear him. A | lively scene followed, but finally Cheatham spoke and attempted a defense of himself. He said that President Harrison had made some abominable appointments, but that still his administration was a great one, and called upon the convention to indorse it.’ The republican Senators had planned and plotted the defeat of the Blair biil, but he assured the convention it would becor law next session, NO WHITE MEN WANTED, There was a motion for Congressman Brower to come forward and explain his actions to- ward the negroes, but the convention refused to entertain it, the chair ruling that white men had no business in the convention and that the explanations could be made with ballots noxt November. ‘ The convention adopted resolutions which, briefly summarized, reaffirms allegiauce to the republican party and avk that the negro race receive proper recognition in the distribution of patronage; commend Harrisou's udminis- tration on all ‘national questions; condemn the self-appointed white bosses who goto Wash- ington and make the representation that the negro, no matter whether he is recognized or not, will support the republican party; call for ®& committee to go to Washington to lay the grievances of the North Carolina negroes be- fore the President; ask for the establishment of a negro school of technology in the south; in dorse the Morrill educational bill; commend the state election Jaw and jury system; indorse the plan of @ southern exposition in soine northern city by both races, and condemn Senator Blair for his work for the educational ae a) THE GRIP SPREADING AGAIN. Prevalent in London and Austria and Hungarian Rural Districts. The influenza, which has lingered in London through the summer, is again becoming very Prevalent. Reports from the continent an- nounce that a similar outbreak has occurred in Vienna, in the Austrian rural districts and in Hungary, the only differenco being that this is accompanied by symptoms of choleraic troublo instead of thoes of ‘affections of the lungs. THE BATTLE OF WATERLOO. A Stately Shaft Erected and Unveiled in Memory of the Slain Soldiers. The Duke of Cambridge, commander-in- chief of the British army, yesterday unveiled the memorial to the soldiers slain in the battle of Waterloo, erected in the rural cemetery three miles beyond the Louvain Gate of Brus- sels, The sculptor of the memorial is the Comte de Lalaing, who is not thirty years old. He rendered his artistic services without any charge, The masonry is thirty fect long, fifteen feet wide and thirty feet high, — IRELAND’S POTATO CROP. In Some Places the Yield Will be Less Than One-Hulf. The Irish land commissioners have just issued their reporton the condition of the potato crop allthrough Ireland. It confirms the statements of the newspapers that the blight is universal. In Donogal there is only haifa crop, in West Cork the yield is far below the average. In the poor districts of Mayo the crop isa total failure. The continued wet weather in- creases the gloom of the picture and the situ- ation threatens to repeat the horrors of 1848. oo His Son Obeyed Orders. Jonathan Hartgroves of Hills¥oro, Ill., owns large watermelon patch and has a chronic fear of the melon thief. Monday night he loaded a big duck gun and gave the weapon to his twelve-year-old son with instructions to watch the patch till daybreak and shoot any one he saw in the hie Later on the old man fell to wondering if the boy would really shoot. So Jonathan sneaked into the melou patch. fe was juston the point of devouring a melon when the boy emptied both barrels into the old man’s body. Jonathan is very badly hurt and may die, ee A Pretty Scotch Widow’s Romance. Among the seventy passengers that arrived in Philadelphia yesterday aftcrnoon in the Allen line steamship Canadian, Capt. Dunlap, from Glasgow and Halifax, was a handsome oung Scotch widow, who gave her name as is, Johnston, and said she had come here to marry A. Ross of Danville, Va., who had prom- ised to meet her on the dock. A search was made on the dock for her betrothed and he was taken ou board. A most affecting meeting took place in the presence of ail the ofliccrs and crew of the ship. The two immediately departed in » oarriago to be married, Fond of Siceping Out of Doors. From the Louisville Commercial. There is a peculiar individual who may be seen iu the neighborhood of tho river front at any hour, day or night. Nobody knows his name, and he refuses to give it, though he does not hesitato to speak freely of himself and his past history. He says he will be seventy-one years old the 13th of this month, and one re- markable thing about him is the fact that he has not sleptunder aroof since ho left the Cincinnati hospital in 1861. He was born and reared near that city, and was a private in the first Kentucky regiment, U. 8. A., during the late war. He served until its close, during which time he slept in the open air and became ac- customed to it. Since the war he has followed various occupations, but in winter as well as in summer he invariably sleeps out doors, For several yours he was eniployed asa deck hand on the James Guthrie. and the river mon who knew him say he invariably slept on the deck, no diffprence what the temperature was below zero blanket or quilt,and would under @ box. — In spite of all that 16 Wi w er.

BRUMMW’S BRAVER’ The Wife of the Px-Congressman Grap- ples With a Burgiar. At Pottsville, Pa, about 1 o'clock yesterday morning the wife of ex-Congressman Brumm was roused by seeing a man in the room. Thinking it was ono of the boys she made no outcry at first, but noticing the man looking among her husband's clothing, which lay on a chair, she sprang from bed and shouted to her husband. She grasped the burglar and contin- ued calling for help. The man grappled with her, dragged her into the hall and, displaying a large knife, threatened her with death unless she remained quiet. Meanwhile Mr. Brumm had become roused to the situation and sprang to the rescuc, when the burglar went out over the couservatory roof and escaped, carry- ing with him the ex-Congressman’s gold watch and pocket book with valuable papers. eee HEIR TO MILLIONS. A Poor Farm Hand’s Remarkable Good Fortune, George Cransfield of Greene, f..1., a farm hand, who has beon working for the past threo months for $6 a month and voard, has received news of the death of an uncle in Melbourn Australia, the sad tidings being somewhat tem- pered by the information that he is heir to more than €2,000.000 worth of property. The Uncle’s name was Michael Cransfield, Besides being # heavy land owner, he engaged in the hotel business at mland Australian points and had a big branch house in the East India trade. Cransfield left this country about fifty years ago and at one time during the Yachandanha gold excitement he was estimated to be worth 10,000,000, made throngh speculation in ernde gold. Young Cranstield ix believed to be the only surviving heir of the Australian spece- lator, Correspondence has becn opened with Sydney and Melbourne attorneys, who for some time past have been looking for young Cransfield, 200 SEVENTY-SIX DROWNED. Terrible Scenes at the Wreck of the Ship Oneida. Survivors of the wreck of the ship Oneida arrived at San Francisco Monday, bringing tho firet full details of the loss of that vessel ona sunken rock in Cook's Inlet and the drowning of seventy-six Chinese hired to work in asalmon cannery. The Oneida left San Francisco in March with a full canning outfit and 200 Chinese. In a heavy fog at 9 o'clock at night she struck on a sunken rock with groat force. An immense hole was stove in the ship's bottom and water came pouring in. The scene that followed was terrible. John Ericsson, ono of the crew, described it as follows: “The Chinese in the hold came swarming on deck. cursed, charged on the boats aud had to be driven back by the crew. Some ran into the rigging and downto the deck again, Then they attempted to take possession of the boats and it was necessary to push them from the side of the ship. To attempt to holdthem in check was impossible. They were like demons. ‘They ran to the side of the ship, scufled with each other in their madness and one-half leaped into the water only to drown. None of the white men were drowned, but every strip of clothing, except what they had on their backs, was lost. All this happened in leas time than I can tell it. Twenty min- utes after we struck there was nothing to be seen of the ship. She lunded fairly on top of the rock and was broken in two as she was settling. Three dories were washed out of the hatches. ‘There was a scramble for them by the panic-stricken Chinese, but only four floated off in them. It was terrible to listen to the wails and cries of the doomed creatures, and we cou!d give them no help. A number were caught like rats in a cage. aud went to the bottom in tho Oneida, Thirty minutes after the ship struck not a sound could be heard except the oars in the locks of our boats, When day broke we found twelve Chinese floating on some wreckage. Seven days afterward three were found ona rock, which they reached by swimming, but only one was alive. He had lived by drinking from a keg of spirits. When work began at the can- nery the Chinese seemed to have lost heart and little was accom phish: ~ ooo NO DOUBT ABO MAINE, The State Will Go Republican and Speaker Reed Will be Re-Elected. The election takes place in Maine in two weeks. A governor, legislature and four Con- gressmen ure to be chosen. Four gubernatorial tickets are in the field—republican, democratic, prohibition and labor. The last two will hardly make aripple. ‘The campaign up to the pres- ent time has been very dull and lifeless, A dis- patch from Portland, Me., to the Philadeiphia Press says: The Democrats are badly split up over the proposition in the platform, adopted by their second state convention, to resubmit the prohibition amendment Their first stats convention had refused to indorse any such movement, but the second convention, which was called to fill the vacancy caused by the death of their gubernatorial nommee and which was very thinly attended, was controlled by the license faction of the party and got in the resubmission plank. The rural democrats are generally opposed to it and probably many of them will stay at home on election day. The prospect is that the republican candidate, Gov- ernor Burleigh, will have the usual majority in off years, say 10,000 or 12,000 and perhaps better. Nobody regards Speaker Reed's district as at all doubtful. The democratic candidate is a very respectable lawyer of Portiand, who bus seen a little service in the state legislature, He will poll his party vote pretty well, but that is all, “He probably accepted the nomination more for the purpose of getting into a good position to become the patronage dis- tributor for the district if the next administration should happen to be democratic than with any expectation of being elected, Mr. Reed's defeat has been pre dicted biannually for the last twelve yoars, but every time he has been elected by an increased majority. Two years ago his plarality was 2,000, but that wus a pfesidential year, when great effort was made to get out the full vote, Possibly, theretore, Mr. Reed's plurality may fail somewhat below that figure. All the other districts are yo overwhvimingly republican that the democrats will make only a show of contesting them, MARYLAND'S OYSTER LAW. An Effort to be Made to Have Its Pro- visions Enforced Rigidly. The Baitimore oyster exchange has deter- mined to buy no oysters from violators of the laws and they appeal to packers, commission merchants, boat owners, the general meas- urers and the civil authorities to enforce the oyster law rigidly, They have also put meas- ures into operation to discover and prosecute violators. ‘The law provides that all oyster shells and all oysters less than 234 inches long from hinge to mouth shall be culled and returned upon their natural beds, and that every fiftieth tub shall be dumped upon the deck of the vessel from which the oysters ate sold, so that the per- centago of shells and small oysters may be as- certained, This percentage is to be deducted from the oysters sold and the remainder shall be regarded as the amount sold. The penalty for having over 5 per cent of shells or illegal oysters and for not returning them to the natu- ral beds is a fine of $100 to $500 ora sentence to jail or the house of correction in the last case, or a fine of from $100 to €300 or imprisonment — a in the first ore ou aaa: je tonging season be; londay next September Land ends April 25.

The Alleged Defects in the New Cruiser Philadelphia. ‘New York Dispatch to the Baitimore Sun. A great deal of gossip has been going the rounds at the navy yard in relation to several alleged defects in the new cruiser Philadel- phia. Capt J. N. Miller today denied that there was a particle of truth in the story. Ad- miral Gherardi said: “The Philadelphia is the sister ship of the Baltimore, and any defects found in the former would necessarily be found in the latter.” The Philadelphia is now the fiagship of the North Atlantic station pending the return of the Baltimore. Carpenters and seamen are busy preparing her for her in- tended cruise, and everything on board is con- sequently in a confused shape just at present, The na a le say that on her to New York the Pithdelphia listed a Tittle, but it was not due to any tendency to avoid riding on an even keel, as stated in the published story. The trouble lay in the fact that she was not evenly balanced. The coal was put too much on one side and her guns were not shifted properly. The Philadelphia is soon to have a new captain, Capt, Bradford having applied for asick leave on the ground of being unwell, whieh leave’ will probably soon be granted im. ——_—_.ee—___ BOYCOTTING IN IRELAND. It is Carried on Vigurously in Spite of 5 Catholic Clerical Condemnation. Bishop O'Dwyer in his letter anent the Dillon dispute says that he does not impute personal dishonesty to Mr. Dillon, but simply adheres to the papal decision on the Persico report and denounces the plan of campaign and the system of boycotting. Despite the clerical condemna- tion the boycott is still employed largely as a Political woapon, and the system is especially strong in the west of Ireland. The case of a man named Ryan, living near Limerick, is being cited as a proof of the thoroughness with which the plan is carried out. Ryan has been striving since 1887 to live on an evicted farm. For speeches denouncing Ryan two members of parliament, Finucane and Sheehy, Rev. Father Marinan and others were sentenced to imprisonm ‘The congregation left the eu lery in the c! apel xs soon as Ryan entered it. A grocer in Limerick sent a messenger after him and returned him money paid for goods ordered as soon as he knew to whom the articles had been sold. Ryan was shadowed at fairs until tre police began shadowing the shadowern, and he could not get his horses shod. A firm that had always repaired his mowing machine refnsed to do so any longer, and he has been subjected, he declares, to “ail the annoyance and inconvenience that human ingenuity cam devise.” But he still holds ou. THE GREATEST RIVER TUNNEL. Canada and This Country Connected by an Underground Highway. ‘The workmen engaged upon the two ends of the St. Clair river tunnel between Port Huron and Sarnia, Ont., shook hands with each other Monday morning under the St, Clair river and made the great subterranean highway echo with their cries. When but 100 fect of the tun- nel proper remained to be completed work was suspended and an 8-foot drift was begu.. This was to enable the engincers to adju st the mas- sive shields wo that thoy will forma perfect lining for the tunnel when brought together. The last spadeful of earth will be removed Thursday morning. Tho tunnel is practically completed and every one connected with it is jubilant, for their success has surpassed the most sanguine anticipations of its promoters. river tunnel in the world, and possibly the greatest picce of enginecring in this country. It is eleven fect longer than the Brooklyn bridge. and the difficulty of underground work compensates for the finer work necessary on that structure, The tunnel will not be in use for some months, as 13,000 fect of approach is to be dug on the Canadian side and one of 9,000 on the Michigan, At 9:40 o'clock Monday morning Mr. Hobson, chief engineer of the tunnel, and Mr. Maliman, engineer in charge; Mr. Eames, mechanical superintendent, aud Mr. Murphy, who has charge of the excavation, passed through the tannel, going in on the American side. They made the trip through in thirty minutes and were greeted upon their arrival on the Sarnia side by all the stcam whistles on the river. st on = A Tobacco Ware House Syndicate.

Lieut. Iturbide was yesterday found guilty by a court-martial for criticising his superior officers and sentenced to 340 days’ imprison- ment to date from July 27, dismissed from the army and prohibited from holding public office for the period of ten years, The case has attracted great interest on ac- count of the high social Say of the accused, Iturbide was adopted heir of Maximillian to succeed to the throne of Mexico, toe - A Drugged Jockey. In the Monmouth handicap yesterday Firenzi was the favorite at 6 to 5. This would have been a great race had it not been for the dis- graceful exhibition that Isaac Murphy, the crack jockey of the country, made on Firenzi. He nearly fell off the mare several times dur- ing the race, and after the finish did fall off, and had to be helped on to get back to the scales, It is said Murphy was drugged, He Wanted to Kill His Fiance, James Harold Sawyer, a young Englishman, attempted to kill bis fiance, Miss Madie Elliott, at her home at Summit, Pa,, Monday evening. Sawyer became acquainted with the Elliotts in Europe. Aiter a brief courtship he became engaged to Miss Elliott aud came to this country with the family. It was learned shortly afterward that Sawyer wasa gambler and a confidence man and the engagement was broken off. Monday evening he obtained aecess to Miss Elliott's home and after asking the reason for the breaking of the engagement and getting a reply he drew arevolver and fired twice, the buileta grazing Miss Elliott's check, Mr. Elliott rushed into the room and was knocked down with a blow from the re- volver. Sawyer then made his escape. Mr. Elliott is prostrated and fears are eutertained for his recovery. The B. and O. and C, and O. Railroads. From the New York Sun. A dispatch from Lynchburg, Va., says that a railroad deal is on band whereby the Baltimore and Ohio will run its trains over the Lexington branch of the Chosapeake and Ohio road to Baleony Falls, and there connect with the main line of the James river divisien of the Chesa- peake and Ohio, This will give the Baltimore and Ohio a direct line to Richmond and Lyneh- burg. It is also stated the Chesapeake and Ohio will run its trains over the new line pro- jected by the Baltimore and Ohio trom Bu- chaman to Koanoke, This looks as if a start was being made by the Baltimore and Ohio tu form those affiliations and connections in the south aud southwest which, it was said, would be a result of the successful culmination of the recent deal in stock.
