HE DIB HIS BEST. Enn Claire In Building Bill Lost In. the Great Final Miuffie of the House. Claims that Democratic Opposition to the Bill KUI it Hew They Got Nack. A' dispatch from Washington says: "Congressman Hangen made a determined fight, this morning, to pass his Eau Claire building bill.

About one o'clock he was recognized by the speaker.and the outlook, for a few minutes was' good for his success. But Owens, of Ohio, who had been indulging too heartily in the several lunches spread in the committee room, saw a i chance to distinguish himselt and he objected to the unanimon's consent asked for. Tellers were caiVd for and Haagen got eighty-seven votes for his bill to two against. There being no quorum, a call of the house was ordered. Before another vote was taken Owens sobered up enough to state thai Mr.

Haugen had objected to. his bill for building at Zanesville, O. cf also--said his bill killed by Mr. Haugen's objection when i the speaker had 'Tomised lecoguize him. of Maryland, a Republicanalso a grievance.

Mr. Hangen had knocked nt his biil for additional improvements' to'--the- Balti more custom house. It appeared 'that Mr. Haugen had minifost-l no ci.il hostility to those various bills, but had hoped to get the speaker to givo r.ll public buildings on the caienuar a chance. Eau Clairft beiug first on the list, of course stood a good chance of passage.

He is looking af ter his bill to regulate naviutioh on the Chip pewa and bell vxt.that it will go through With but utue oppositioa. He also thinks the passage will be a great factor in bnildiug up Eau Claire, and the great good to result cannot be esti mated at this time.
