NECESSARY TO THE PARTY'S SUCCESS Innovation of the Republican Speaker Now Regarded s the Only Method of Disposiug of the Aggres- sivo Fillbusterers. 518 FOURTEESTH STREET, WASHINGTON, June 24. Western free silver democrats will, in all probability, be brought faceLo face with the rules of ex-Speaker Reed in the next house, and any attempt to block the financial policy of the administration will be squelched. Representative Catchings of Mississippi, who was i member of the committee on rules in the last house and is likely to oc- cupy o simiiar position in the coming con- gross, Is in the city. “Ithink there is no doubt that the rules of the house of representatives will have to be changed during the coming session,” he said. “Itis necessary that we should bo able to have a better grip on legislation, or we shall find dificulty in carrymgout the ASmINGTON BurreAu or Tne Bee, } policies to which the party has been pledged.” “In what do you think these changes will consist? I have not given the matter very serious consideration yet," was General Catchings' roply, “having been occupied with other matters, but I should not be surprised if they were to be in the line of taking away the privileged character of some of the motions which are now used to ich effect by the filibusterers. There are three motions I may make which never fail to be used; the inexperienced filibusterer relies on them on all occasions, and they are 80 ready that they cannot fail to be effective. I'hey are the motions to adjourn, to take a recess and to fix a day to which the house will adjourn. These being privileged motions under the present rules, have caused in the past an almost endless obstruction to busi- nes To remove the privileged character of these motions would at once furnish very considerablo relief,” Western Penslons.

MORTON IS TOO SLOW, Democrats Complain ecause Ho Doosn't Give Out Offices Fust Enough. WASHINGTON, June 24.—A prominent dem- ocratic congressman, professing to voice the sentiments of other members of like politi- cal faith, said: ‘A number of western congressmen com- plain that the sccretary of agriculture is too slow about appointing democrats to office, He spent a great deal of time and has had much success in finding where there have been crookedness ana wastefulness in the department and has stopped some of the uscless expense, but leaves republicans in all the good pluces, while democrats with first-class recommendations are waiting to take the places which in some cases have been promised them. “There are not many fat offices in his gift, 80 far as pay is concerned, but he has a good many eusy jobs at moderate that could be divided out among the sons of democratic farmers. A stalwart republican still holds the office of ussistint secretary and draws a salary of $4,500 a yewr. It is said that this ofice will be filled byi'a democrat as soon us the president finds, @ southern democrat to fill the place. His, theory is that the two principal ofiicers of the department would best come from the dgricultural sections, the west and south.” ‘The same authority said that Secretary Morton's annual report will show that he has made a saving of expenses in his depart- ment which will comfire favorably with the records of economy that will be shown by any other brauch of the public service, Some of the figures,mentioned by way of illustration are a showing of $0,000 in the item of inspeciors of meat at Chicago, §20,- 000 &t Omahu and #0,000 at Kansas City, i T OFFICE CASES, — Disbarment Proceedings Against Messrs.

Mr. Simonds' testimony was cowpleted today. He said the War department began ordering copies of the Berliner and Bell papers, uud, as the suit was un attack upon his (Simonds') action in issuing the Berliner eut, he determined to have copies of ything the goveruwent or the Bell com- 0y should issue. He had never paid for the covics und pever intended Lo pay for PAT) them, the argument will begin July .

Mexzo Park, Cal., June 24.—Funeral ser- vices over the remains of Senator Leland Stanford were held today on the grounds of the Stanford university at Palo Alto, and the remains placed in the family mausoleum.

It is evident that his mental wor- ry has to a.considerable extent abated now that he knows practically the ultimatum in his case. Noone appears to know as yet whether he will be sent to Sioux Falls or Lincoln, but it is altogether probable that he will go to one or the other before two weeks more have pussed. The work of the present term is drawing to a close and his sentence will be pronounced before adjourn- ment. —_————— GOES TO SUPREME COURT. Judge Davis'® Decision on the Hill Will Be Appented. Speaking of the Hill case Judge Wakeley said last evening to a BEE reporter: “It has been deciacd to take the case of the state vs ox-State Treasurer Hill to the supremo court immediately to obtain a re- versal of Judge Davis' ruling that the court in Douglas county had no jurisdiction, “The hearing of the e can be advanced on application and can be had atan early day. “The attorneys for the state are confident of a decision there that suit may be brought legally in this county where, for satisfac- tory reasons, they believe the rights of the state can bo protected and enforced and thoey will test the question of jurisdiction at once rather than to submit to the ruling.” it P Setao Rald on Mendicants, It was a great day for beg; yesterday. A round half dozen were gathered 1 by the police during the afternoon for begging on the street. Most of them p as cripples of some sort and Jaller Havey is the custodian of a varlegated assortment of crutchos, goggles and wooden legs. This class of people has become a little 100 nu- merous of late to suit the authorities and they are causing the arrest of all the pro- fossional beggars. s Movements of Ocenn Steamers June 24, At London—Sighted—Nordland, from Rot- terdam; La Champaigne, from Now York.

Rep Croup, June 24.—[Special Telegram to ik BeE.]—A shooting affray, resulting in the death oftone man and the serious and perhaps fatal wounding of another, occurred here at 6:30 this afternoon. me d since Albert Cummings, fors merly cook at the rdner house, obtained a judgment against James Frame, proprietor of the house, for § Frame had seen the Justice who had rendered the judgment and prom y it, but did not, and an exe- cution was issued and placed in the hands of Constable Charles Winfrey, who saw Frame eral times before he tempted to make a nd some ill feeling was aroused, ame visited the justice and wanted to pay the amount. He wi told to settle with the constable, but said he would have nothing to do with nim and de- clared that if he attempted to take any of his stuff he would shoot. Not much attens tion was paid to him, and the constable attempted to levy on some of Frame's hogs. No one saw the begiuning of the trouble, but the constable suys that Frame drew a revolver and put it against him, but that he did not believe he would shoot, He did shoot, however, and Wintrey pulled his gus and returned the fire, Shooting at Short Range. As near as can*be ascertained Frame fired once and snapped his gun again, but the hammer caught on Winfrey's clothing and did not go off. Winfrey emptied his gun and then walked over to where Frame was lymF, took up Frame's gun and with both guns in his hands walked nome, a distance of over three blocks, Frame was hit twice, first in the groin and then in the breast near the heart and died in a few minutes. He was unable to speak from the time he was shot. Winfrey is shot through the body from the point of the breast bone to a point below and slightly to the right of the right shoulder blade where the surgeons found the ball near the surface and removed it, The guns were both 38 caliber and if the course of the ball that struck Winfrey was direct he can survive, ‘The coroner lives at Bladen and has been telegraphed for. There were several people near enough to see the shooting and their stories are somewhat conflicting, e Music at Courtland beach today. ——— Hanscom Purk Conoert, The musical program at Hanscom park this afternoon at 8 o'clock will consist of the following numbers, rendered by the Musical Union Military band: PART March—Coronation Overture—Zam i Andante Keligios Belection—Ye Olden Overture Serenade M The Silver Hell loppergrell or Flute und French poeret srs.
