nrmniainff the claims of committeemen
anxious to secure favors from the rules
committee in behalf of measures in which
they are interested. There are at present
a dozen measures in behalf ol which the
special order is being asked to set apart
a day next week for consideration.
Chairman Stump, of the immigration
committee, has seen the Speaker, who
asbured him that the committee would
be given a dav for its immigration
restriction bill. The Torrey bankruptcy
bill is being pressed for a special order.
It is not expected, however, that the bill
will become a law at this Congress.
Buckner and other members Irom the
Great Iaitea region, are after another
opportunity to pass the omnibus light
house bill, which secured a special order
just before the holidays, but received
scant consideration owing to sum at
tendance in the house.
Special orders have also ljecn prom
ised tor the Raum investigating report
and the bill for the election of president
and vice-president and of senators by
direct vote ol the people.
Bland has not yet preferred a request,
but it is his intention to see the Speaker
and ask another opportunity to pass the
bill providing for the free coinage of
silver. Harter and other uncompromis
ing anti-silver men say they are anxious
for a trial at the repeal of the present
Shermati stiver bullion purchase law,
and as a renewal of the silver fight is
about the only thing in which the radi
cals on either side of the currency q no
tion seem agreed, it looks as if there
would be another bout in this Congress
over silver legislation.
The House is today considering private
pension bills coming over from last ses
sion as unfinished business. There is a
bare quorum in attendance.

out and hung. But they were dead be

Yesterday new forces came in and
about noon another battle was fought.
It is said at least twenty-five were killed
on each side and scores wounded.
