Washington. March 1.—[ Special. ]
There is a great pow wow among the
oklahoma contingent over some idfor-
i mat ion fecured at the postoflftce de-
i partment today. It is to the effect
thatSiwbuck Hoss, while here some
i time n>sro, indorsed for postmaster at
Oklahoma City T. M Upshaw, and
formerly he had indorsed for tlie posi-
tion Thomas Newell.
Newell is from Kansas and it hap-
pens that Hoss concluded that he
would change his indorsement, so that
he would be helping a gentlemau from
Texas. '1 here is also another very in-
' teresting feature. It is declared
that Newell, having his indorsement,
had, according to the present custom,
put up tln money to Ross to make the
trip here in his interest. Now it ap-
pears that Hoss came all right enough,
but that he failed to continue in the
support of Newell.
Washington, March 1. — In the house
this morning Mr. Oelssenhelmer(dem.),
of New Jersey, first tried to secure
unanimous consent for the considera-
tion of the bill making an appropria-
tion to save the wreck of the Kear-
sarge, but Mr. lllaud demanded the
regular onler.
After the calls of committees for re-
ports Mr. Kilgore, of Texas, presented
the following resolution as a question
of privilege:
Whereas Th© li*s of th* United Siatea. nee
t'on 4 '. dU^ptSP t of the r«'-. i* ett StStatSS, pro*
t.de that wbea any member of lhe bouse of
r. eseati ivei shall be u oat for any own
except that of ittckneH* of himself or famllr, It
shall he the duty of the sergeant al arms to do-
duct frt m the monthly Halary the amount due
him each £hv he is so absent from such cause,
Slid
Whereas. Durin* the present session many
member* have be^-n absent, ; s appears from
the record, for causes other than those named
In the statute therefore be ii
Resolved, 'Jhit 'he sergeant-at arras be re-
quired to report to this hou.se wi;hout delay the
names of such absentees, and whether or not
the law in such cases mide ant provided has
beeu b hitn OOflipttod Willi aul that if It has
not been compiled with to report his reasons
whv he has been derelict in his duties in ihit
regard and if In his Judgment the law cannot
be compiled wiih, thit he > e required to
give his reasons *hy it cannot lx- enforced.
Mr. Heed made the point of order
that the resolution was not privileged
and the speaker decided that the reso-
lution as drawn was not privileged,
but if it contained an allegation that
an officer of the house had been dere-
lict In his duty it would t e clearly in
that character. Accordingly Mr. Kil-
gore withdrew it to make the change
suggested.
Mr. I'land then moved that the house
go into committee of the whole for the
consideration of the seigniorage bill
and that general debate on his bill
close at 3 o'clock to-morrow, and on
the latter motion demanded the pre-
vious question. The vote was a signal
fur a break In the New York delegft*
linn, Messrs. Cummings, Clancy and
Magner declining to give countenadce
to the filibustering of tlu-ir colleagues
by not voting.
During the progress of the roll call
Mr. Johnson (dem i, of Ohio, rose to a
point of order. He called attention to
the fact that the rules required mem-
bers to vote and that the member
whose name the clerk had just called
(Mr. Bingham) had refused to answer
to his name. The speaker said the roll
call could not be interrupted Mr.
Johnson then reserved the point of or-
der and the roll call proceeded.
At its conclusion Mr. Livingston, of
Georgia, renewed the point of order
made by Mr. Johnson and read rule 8,
as follows:
Ererv member shall be pre er.t within tnt>
hall of the h >use during its sittings, unless ex
cu fd or neco3«arlly prevented, and shall vote
on each ti i^stion put, unless on motion made
by division or lhe commencement of roll call he
ah all I hi excused, or unless he has a direct por-
fonul cr a primary interest in the event of such
question.
Under the rule, Mr. Livingston de-
manded that Mr. Tracey, who had re-
fused to vote, be held in contempt of
the house, and Mr. Johnson said ho
had u list of twenty-five members who
had violated the rule.
After some further debate another
ballot was taken. This showed that a
quorum was secured and the silver men
went wild.
The special order fixing a time for
voting on the bill was taken up and
the previous question sustained by
the speaker casting the vote neces-
sary to make up a quorum. The
quorum was then lost ou a motion to
adopt the special order aud the house
adjourned till to-morrow when an ef-
fort will be made to remove the last
barrier to a vote.

j most deplorable tragedy that ever oo-
I curred in this section of the state was
' enacted yesterday afternoon ou the
ferry boat plying between this city and
Callaway county, lion Charles LI.
Harlan and Mr. Charles 1 Moore, two
of the most prominent and highly re-
spected citizens of Callaway, be. ,ir
Involved in t QKifftl, aid Harlan ihot
, and killed Moore. The facts of the
I case are hard to obtain.
Eye-witnesses on tHe boat state that
Moore came aboard about l Wo clock
from Cedar City, lie told (apt. Kay
that Harlan was following, and that
he expected trouble. Harlan arrived a
few minutes afterward, and Moore, on
the advice of the captain went up into
the cabin to avoid him, but was fol-
lowed by Harlan. A war of words en
sued and Moore left the cabin
and returned to the lower deck,
picking up a piece of cord wood
as he passed the engine room.
Harlan ngain followed him and
the quarrel was renewed, 'lhe crew
of the boat again interfered, but Har-
lan insisted that he would not desist
until Moore dropped the sti<*k of wotJd.
A moment later he drew his revolver
and fired the fatal shot. Moore stag-
gered ttp the fiompanionway to the
cabin and sank on the floor in a dying
condition. He lived about twenty min-
utes after the shooting.
Moore's body was brought to this city
where he is residing temporarily. He
is a wealthy, retired farmer, and a man
of hierh character. Harlan has in the
past been one of the leading democratic
politicians of Oallaway oounty. He
was elected representative in IS89, aud
in 1S90 was a candidate for the demo-
cratic nomination for railroad commis-
sioner.
