The extremity to which the filibuster in the House has gone makes, a vory serious situation | for those branches of ‘the government which | depend upon appropriation in the sundry civil vill. The purpose this morning was torelieve the sit uation fora while by the passage of a resolu- tion under suspension of tho rales extending the old uppriation until the 4th of August. ‘The filibustering was shifted for a moment and Mr. Hopkins appeared as the leader of the | obstructionists, his purpose being to prevent | the adoption of this resolution. Later, a quo-! Tum appearing, the motion was put for passage | ‘under suspension.

A special committee of the House investigat- | ing the charges made by Representative Wateon 2| of Georgia that members had been seen on the floor of the House to stagger and reel from | drunkenness met this morning. Ex-Gov. Josiah Patterson of Tennessee was the firet witness called. Chairman Boatner asked bis name, Mr. Patterson replied: “Josiah.” Mr. Boatner—Have you had thet name all| the time? Gov, Patterson—Always. Witness eaid be had never noticed a member drunk on the floor of the House and so far as | he knew the statement was untrue. He had | known Mr. Cobb since his arrival here as a member of the House, and the day that Mr. Rockwell very long and exhaustive one. He had seen Mr. Cobb drink from a cup, but as to it can- taining whisky he could not state, but as to the charge that Mr. Cobb was drunk he wished the public to know that it was not true. Witness sot within four feet of Mr. Cobb while he was i speech. Mr. Bynum of Indiana was the next witness, He said he was not in the House the day that Judge Cobb spoke. é Mr. Boutner askc€ him if’ he had ever seen any member of the House drunk on the floor of the House. Witness replied that he had never seen such a thing, and was of the opinion that no such thing had ever taken place on the floor. ‘Mr. Simpson objected to the question. Mr. Boatner told him that he could appeal to the Mr. Simpson—I do not wish to appeal to the committee. MR. WATSON SATISFIED. Mr. Watson made a statement to the effect it hud proved that his charges were true and that he did not intend to make the charge gen- erally against the House, but only against indi- viduals, a Mr. Simpson moved that the question put to ‘Mr. Bynum respecting the general character of the House as to sobriety be stricken out. ‘The committee overruled -Mr. Simpson's mo- tion. ‘Mr. Bynum said that this House was as sober and dignified a body as he was ever in. Delegate Marcus Smith of Arizona was next called. He was present when Mr. Cobb spoke on the day mentioned, He was stire that Judge Cobb was sober. ‘Mr. Bontner asked if he had seen any member or members staggering and reeling ‘about the jouse, Mr. Smith replied that he had not seen any such affairs, ‘Mr. Simpson—Have you ever seen any such instance occur during’ your service of three terms in the House? ‘Mr. Smith started to answer the question, when he was told by Mr. Boatner not to ontr Grout (Vt) ybjected to the question, ir. Grow ol q Mr. Simpson withdrew it. Mr. Smith said that Mr. Cobb, as every mem- ber of the House knew, was delicate and of nervous temperament, and that it was neces- sary for him to take ‘some no t, as it wonld have been impossible for him to have talked for two hours as he did without it. Gen. Myer of Louisiana was the next wit- nest. “He eaid he was of opinion that Mr. Cobb was sober when he delivered his speech on the Noyes-Rockwell contested election ‘case. He noticed that he was somewhat mixed toward theend cf his speech, but that was doubtless due to the frequency of the interruptions which occu! juris colloquy. Gen, Wise of ‘Louisiana, clerk to the commit- tee on interstate commerce, called. said that he listened to Mr. Cobb's speech from the silery and was of opinion thet he was perfectly sober. W. P.

THE WASHINGTON ASYLUM. Superintendent’ Stoutenburgh’s Estimates for the Next Fiscal Year. Intendent Stoutenburgh of the Washington Asylum today submitted to the Commissioners a detailed estimate of the amounts required for the maintenance of the Washington Asylum, together with a statement of the improvements needed for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1894 For contingent expenses an appropriation of 960,000 is asked, based on a daily average of it f r a © n Time Extended for the Bill of Exceptions— ‘What » Fortune Teller Said. The time for filing the bill of exceptions in the case of Howard J. Schneider, convicted of the murder of his wife and sentenced to be hanged on Jenuary 20 next, has been extended until September J. This oxtension was made necessary by the voluminous record in the case, which had to be minutely examined and com- pared in order to fix upon the exact pointe which will form part of the bill. The extension will not interfere with the hearing of the condemned murderer's appeal by the Court in General Term, and that court will not resume its session until the first Monday in October. The points which will form the bill of exceptions have al- ready been published in Tux Star, and relate chiedy to alleged erroneous rulings of the trial ney and misconfuct of certain members of jury. ~ SCHNEIDER'S JAIL Live. Schneider's life in jail remains the same monotonous = of eating, smoking. His’ suffered considerably from the heat of the past week, ag did the other convicte confined re. He bas little to say on any subject, ae rather conversationalist, the matter of crime. His mother and sisters visit him once or twice a week, and oo- casionally his brothers. For the most part he subsists on prison fare, but now aud then his family supply him with a few delicacies. What- ever is brought to bim {a.carefully examined by the prison officials before it is handed to him, whether it is food, clothing or reading Matter, end no one is permitted to converse with him except under the eye and in hearing of an ofticer of the prison. At certain hours of the day Schneider is al- lowed the freedom of the corridor running past | his cell. He spends most of the day, however, ints narrow cell, which is the same occupied by Guitean and from which he marched to the scaffold. At 8 o'clock in the evening Schneider, in common with his fellow prisoners, is locked in his éell for the night and remains so until 7 o'clock next morning, when the prisoners clean their cells, have breakfast and then begin another day. WHAT A FORTUNE TELLER SAID. A curious story in connection with Schneider's crime is told of the murdered wife going the day before she was so cruelly slain to a colored fortune teller, an old woman living in the northwestern part of the city. It is said by those who tell the story that the ‘old woman told the murdered l that there was great trouble in store for her; that two hearses would stand before her home at the same moment before a week | should pass. Two hearses did stand before the poor girl'shome before the week had passed, > 4 done bore her body to the grave and the Cobb made his speech on the N br contented election he (air. Patter other that of her beloved brother. son) jtened to im ough- out his ary mt, whieh was a THE CooL WAVE. Though a Little Overdue It Has Arrived et Last. Well, it's here, To be sure, it wase long time coming—but maybe it had to travel by easy stages and rest during the hg of the day. It is a fact that cool waves inWhe summer make their journe; very leisurely, totally ignoring time tables and often keeping the perspfring citizen fuming and fretting over ite non-arrival. In the winter, however, with equal perversity the cold wave swoups down suddenly with fiendish glee upon the unsuspecting citizen, catching him with his coal bin empty and emiting him hip and thigh if he hae happened to come down town without his overcoat. Although the present cool wave is a Hittle overdue, the weather bureau cherishes the hope that it will “bide a wee wi’ y that he was satisfied with the investigation, as| ing the inion that this cool wave did not come overland from the northwest, did not slip ona northeast breeze from the ocean, but that it came from above. It is thought that the atmosphere for some distance above the carth has gradually cooled off and assumed that con- dition whereby it protects the earth from the heat of the sun. This is not, construed to mean, however, that there isnot tobe any more hot weather this summer, and the weather bureau is not lay- ing any wagers tbat the vertebral column of summer has suffered nt fracture. In the course of time the up likely to again become heated, local conditions will lend their aid and warm weather next month may be expected. COOL ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. The cool weather exists all over the country today. Washington is being treated very fairly, and when a comparison is made with last week it may be said that the capital city is in great luck, At 11:30 today the thermometer regis- tered only 90, whish lesbout 15 degrees cooler londay. It Se contaanty predicted that it will from that condi- tion for a few days following. ‘The maximum reached at Washi yee terday was 88, at Boston it was 70, New York city 68, Philadelphia 80 and Cleveland and 76. Throughout Iowa and Nebraska it ranged in the early nineties, and in Idaho and Utah was 94. Yuma was 102. The city today made visible show of the wel- come People were refreshed and too grateful for the chan horses moved with livelier step. quick to a ciate the difference. Business showed a revival and there was considerable shopping during the morning.
