In the house, Representative Cammettl Introduced a resolution providing for holding: a con ference of nations of the western hemi sphere to draft treaties remonctizing silver. Filibustering' was resumed to prevent the ungating of Hellborn, republican, of California. The democrats were sev eral votts short of a quorum. Hellborn, of California, was finally vnseated. At 4:15 roll call on the passage of the Bland bill over the president's veto created great disorder. There was heated controversy between Speaker Reed and others. Reed was ordered to his seat. The vote at the end of the first roll call stood yeas, 130; nays, 45. More than two-thirds voted lo pass over the veto. The republicans did not vote. On the second count the vote stood ayes, 144; nays, 11B, not the necessary two- thirds. Bland stated that on Saturday at o'clock he would demand the previous question. From all quarters of the democratic side there seemed to arise a conflict of opinion, and island's sug gestion of three days' debate was met This statement was received with witih cheers and cries of "Vote," "vote." Then followed one of the most remark able scenes witnessed In the house in years. Tracy, who was standing in the side al3le, said that as far as the dem ocrats of the minority of the coinage committee were concerned, they were willing to take a vote Immediately, shouts of approval from the democratic side. Stone, of Pennsylvania, who made the minority report against the bill, replied he was unwilling lo close the debate at this time. " When he ceased speaking there was great confusion cn the floor. Members on both sides were conferring In groups. The speaker, with uplifted gavel, surveyed the house for a moment. Bland expressed his willingness to have a vote taken Imnie- dlately. Keed, Dingley, Burrows, and Stone were in earnest consultation, and they agreed that Dingley should make the opening argument for his side. The speaker stated the question to be cn the motion to pass the bill to pass the bill, the president's veto notwlth standing. "On. this," said he, looking down upon the confusion on the floor, 'the constitution requires that a vote shall be taken by yeas and nays." Again he paused, but no one addressing, he added, with a bang of the gavel, "The clerk will call the roll." There was a gasp of astonishment on the re publican side as they awakened to rind that the roll-ca'll had begun. The democrats, who were anxious to see the debate suppressed, were over joyed. Among a great uproar a dozen republicans jumped to their feet and clamored for recognition. They saw the coveted opportunity of exposing to the public gaze the dlssentions In the camp of the enemy slipping from them, and they fought hard. The confusion was so great that the clerk got no further than the first name. "Toa late," shouted the democrats, as Reed tried to make himself heard. At last, by hard pounding, a sem blance of quiet was restored. Mr. Speaker," said Reed, "my col league, Mr. Dingley, was ready to ad dress the house upon this question be fore roll call began." ! "The gentleman, Mr. Dingier, made no Buch statement until the first name on the roll had been called." 'The reason he did net," said Mr. Reed, "was because the gentleman fn.m Missouri, Mr. Blan-1, was entieled to Ihe floor, and I submit to the speaker ind the house this Is a notable breach. My colleague was ready to address the chair, and If he did not do so It. was because In the a-mfusion the first name on the roll was called before an oppor tunity was afforded to the house to know what the situation was." "Regular order," shouted the liemo- crata - The speaker then explained ihe situatio.i. His explanation was not satisfactory. The republicans, led by Reed, were ap- Reed was persistent, but the speaked declined to heap him. Mr. Wilson, of Washington, cried "Tyranny! Tyranny!" but the speaker would not listen, and ordered the clerk to proceed with the roll call. The republicans were beside them selves with anger. They refused to vote on the first roll call. The antl silver democrats were In despair as the first roll call gave the bilver men the necessary two-thirds. Finally, after consultation, they agreed to vote, and did vote on the fecond roll call. . This turned the tide and uponi the announce ment of the vote it was found the mo tion to pass the bill over the veto had been defeated, the silver men lacking seventy-four for the. . necessary two- thirds. The house then (at 6 o'clock) adjourned. RIOTING STRIKERS. Pennsylvania Miners Preparing for Battle. T'nlontown, Pa., April 4. The war be tween the strikers and workmen Is on In earnest.

He denied asking a colored woman at Goldsboro to cook for him after he married the plaintiff. He never pro fessed affection for the plaintiff,, but was solicitous when he knew she was about to become a. mother through him. Ho went with her to certain places for an understood purpose. He placed his arms about her and kissed her.but both understood there was nothing deep. He denied having placed the plaintiff In the care of Mrs. Blackburn, saying he intended to marry her. lie though Mrs. Blackburn was confused about some matters. Col. Breckinridge averred Mis. Black bum's description of nearly every one of the material occurrences when their paths were crossed are wrong, but qual ified his denials by the statement thai fhe had confused dates und d .ccs; had put constructions not intended up cn his utterances; had attributed to hlin things 'said by Madeline Pollard, but asserted as a saving clause, that she had no d.ml-t honestly endeavoieu to givo her recollection of the events. Tomorrow the defense will close. The Inquisition suffered by Breckin ridge at the hands of Judge Jere Wll son regarding the testimony of Mrs. Gov. Blackburn would be the talk ol the city tonight but for some remarks from Judge Bradley which enliven the close of the proceedings and ob- ui-ui-eu tin oiner reaiureg of the ease, For days past, since' the case reached the renith of Us sensationalism, crowds or men, Doys, and women, many of them well dressed ind respectable ol appearance, have thronged the court corrmors ana stdevalks, and even the street in front -of the offloes of the at torneys at the hour of adjournment waiting for the principals to appear, elbowing for vantage points, Indulging In personal comment, and making things so grossly disagreeable that the objects of their attention have been driven to make their escape through the side doors, adopting various ma neuvers lo avoid unpleasant intorl- ty Judge rruuiey haa In the mea.ulnif been smothering a growing feeling of dlfiust. Ti night his emotions pnsjd the safety guage, and he gave some rf v-ho pcoBlo such a pointed tongue-lush ing ns nas rarely been heard In the court r.'Mim. 'Mr. Buttreworth, defendant's counsel, drew out the colonel In reference to a conversation between himself and Miss Pollard regarding) their marriage. She had told, he said, that his wife wbb dead, nad there was nothing to prevent him from marrying her. He replied to this with some angen, and she said If he would change his tone she would retire from society; give up trying to go in society and be his mistress; take care of his room, and do his type-writ ing. He had told her that under the circumstances she was the last person who could do his typewriting. She hiui liiKlsted she would not leave him, but would go wherever he wenU Then they had walked together to a house on H street where thoy had been accustomed to visit. His anger had cooled down and Jie sat down; she nut on the (low with her arm on his knees, and they talked fur into the night He had told her that after their relations he could not marry her; that no man could be expected to marry a woman with whom he hod had Intercourse unless he had seduced her. "You know I have not seduced you," I eald, and Col. Breckenridge contin ued: "She urged me to marry her or account of those relations. I said,' '1 can't afford to put Jim- Rhodes' mis tress and my mistress at the head o( my family. She threw up the window and said she would scream. Just then some one rapped nt the door and said we were making a great deal of noise: 1 that my voice was peculiar, and thati there was another member of congress In tho house who might recognize It." i (Laughter.) Col. Breckenridge smiled, and contin ued: "I did not core to know who." Before court adjourned the crowd rose and Btarted out. The judge com manded them to take their seats. As tho nun collapsed Into their seats the judge declared In his sternest tones: "This morbid curiosity which has been .manifested since the beginning of the trial is perfectly disgusting. These men who come here day after day remind me of buzzards sitting on a fence wait ing fon a sick horse to die waiting for a pile of carrion." Then turning to the crier, he commanded, "Adjourn the court." WHERE TUB BLAME LAY. The Cause of the Reported Indian Up rising. Chicago, April 4.
