The audience of statesmen, judges, bankers and other busy men, whove time is usually valuable, sat through the per- formance with evident interest.

Mr. Johnston, Mr. Webb. ‘The young ladies of the chorus, all of whom are known in society and had hosts of frienda in the audience, looked unusually pretty in their becoming costumes, and per- formed their parte very satisfactorily. Mr. Pierre Stevens, who has frequently appeared on the amateur stage, assumed the part of Vasco de Gama, the’ hero, and was weil re- ceived. Mrs. Whelen, who his taken part in the opera several times, complimented him highly on his acting, particularly as he had had noone to act with at the rehearails. Baron Beck Friis as Vasco's At showed considerable dra- matic ability in the line of comedy.and in a more retentious role would doubtless make a hit.

Mrs. Brown had another large reception in her own parlor at the Arlington and had Mrs. Goodwin and Mrs. Rixey to assist her. Mrs. Harlan's comfortable home was espe- cially, attractive yesterday after the long drive out there. She had her daughter and their young lady guests to assist her. Justice Lamar was calling at the homes of his asociates. He expects Mra. Lamar to return from the south in a few days. She has been spending a few weeks with her grandchildren, whove mother died last summer. Mrs. John W. Foster received her friends fepterday afternoon, assisted by her guests, the ‘isses Orr.

Mr, McKinley Defends the Speaker m Wis Ralingy—The Elections Rill. Yesterday, after Tux Stan's report closed in the House, the rather exciting discussion on the question of the Speaker's right to refuse to entertain an appeal was continued. The Speaker Inid before the House a number of quotations from the record showing instances in which Mr. Randall had refused to entertain appeals from his decision where the appeals were evidently dilatory. Mr. McKinley held the attention of the House in a short speech in support of the ruling of the chair. He held that Mr. Mills’ sppeal on Saturday was a purely dilatory one and should not have been entertained. Mr. McKinley, continuing, gave a history of the oc- currence on Saturday. Mr. Mills, he said, had Taised the question of approving the journal. TRE JOURNAL'S CORRECTNESS UNQUESTIONED. Continuing, Mr. McKinley said: “No one had Tained any question as to the correctness of the Journal. No member had moved any amend- ment to the Journal or ad pointed out any in- accuracy. No member suggested that it failed to record with absolute exactnem all that had occurred onthe preceding day. So when the journal was read the gentleman from Texas demanded a division upon the approval of the journal and it was granted. “Then & Jea,and nay vote was had, and w that vote 174 Representatives on this floor had | recorded themselves in favor of the approval of the journal, declaring thereby that it was cor- rect in every particular, and but eleven gentle- | men voted in the negative. And that the jour- nal was correct we have the evidence of the painstaking and careful gentleman, my friend rom Arkansas (Mr. Rogers), who had voted in pe and against the approval of the jour vote had but who rose in his place before the ‘ been announced and asked to change his vote from “no” to “aye,” because be was “satisfied the journal was eorrectly made up.” THE SPEAKER WAS RIGHT. “Now, after that substantially unanimous vote on the part of this House, 173 for approval to 11 against it, when the motion was made to re- consider that vote by the gentleman from Texas, he having voted in the affirmative origi- nally--not voting in the negative and then changing his vote that he might move to recon mder, but in the first instance voting that the journal was correct—I say after that great vote and that almost unanimous expression of judg- ment on the part of the House the Speaker had aright and a perfect right to refuse, be cause the motion was dilatory, to entertain the motion to reconsider. And having re- fased to entertain the motion to re- consider, afterward when the appeal was taken from that refusal it was his was taken for the very duty, because the ap; same reason that the motion was oftered, (0 wit, for delay, and it was manifest to every one on the floor that it was for that purpose, it was his duty to refuse to entertain the appeal, which he did. “Task, Mr. Speaker, to remind gentlemen on the other side that when in the discussion of the rules of this House during the first session of this Congress, when we were in framing the rules under which we are now act- ing, the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Crixp) desiring to take from the Speaker the right to | declare whether he would or would not entertain 4 motion on appeal, offered an amendment to the rules providing that the Speaker shall not in any case refuse to entertain an appeal from his decision.” This amendment was yoted down, said Mr. McKinley. SOME LIVELY POLITICA. Mr. McKinley then entered into something of a political discussion. “What led to our de- feat last Noveniber gentlemen are divided about. They do not All we ask you to do on that side of the House is, you gentlemen who will be charged with the responsibility of legislation in the next Congress, all we ask of you is to put into public measures and public law your interpretation of that victory. We have put into public law our promises of 1888, ‘and when you have done that we will go to the American people upon the issues thus made up and let them determine in 1892 whether that side of the House or this side of the House shall be given in control of the government of the United States. [Applause on the republi- can side.) One thing is certain, Mr. Speaker, that eo long as this House of Representatives continues, to long as the Fifty-first Congress lasts, so long is the republican party in control and will keep in control. (Applause on the re- publican side.) And it must be manifest to the country, and it must be manifest to every entleman who sits on this floor, that for the t six weeks the whole efforts of that side of the House have been put forth to obstruct the Public business of the country.
