In the New Jersey legislature today, the committee was about to report declaring Haines (republican) elected instead of Tur-ley (democrat), the sitting member. Immediately the democrats withdrew, leaving the housa without a quorum; then the democrats attempted to hold a caucus with a view of pledging all their men to support Abbett for senator, but three members promptly bolted and others followed, so that they could not agree on anything. Both parties are demoralized, and almost the only thing clear in the situation Is that neither Sewcll nor Abbett will be elected senator. Trying to Wear a Rabbit's Eye. CharleB Williams of Minneapolis has been undergoing an unsuccessful operation here for the substitution of a rabbit's eye for his own, which had been injured.

Restoration of the sight was uot expected, but the object Was to get a more sightly member. Dr. May, who condncted the operation, has transplanted eyes from one rabbit to anqther with success. In this case the muscles adhered, and Williams was able, after a few days, to roll the new eye in its socket; but inflammation set in. the eye burst and hod to be removed.

He now has a glass eye instead. This is the first time this has been tried In America. Relief that Can't Relieve. The Texas drought commissioners, who are to distribute the hundred thousand dollars relief fund, report that the chief need of the sufferers is grain for seed and feed for live stock, neither of which they can bestow under the terms of the law.

1887. News of the Day. "The' Retaliatory Bills." Secretary Manning Eesigns. The Western Floods-Suffering and Loss of Montana Cattle. Opinions of the C.

A. R. Wanted. Snow Flakes Larger thdn Milk Pans. WASHINGTON.

The Retaliatory Bills. The sub-committee of the house committee on foreign affairs, consisting of Messrs. Belmont, Clements and Rice Monday pre sented its report on the retaliatory bills. A substitute bill is recommended for the senate bill and the Belmont bill. The retaliatory section is as follows That hereafter, whenever the president shall be satisfied that vessels of the United States are denied in ports or territorial waters of the British dominions in North America rights to which they are entitled by treaty or by the law of nations, or are denied comity of treatment or reasonable privileges usually accorded between neighboring and friendly nations, he may, in his discretion, by proclamation, prohibit from entering the ports of the United States, or from exercising such privileges therein as he may, in his discretion, by such proclamation define, vessels owned, wholly or in part by a subject of Her Britannic Majesty, and coming or arriving from any port or place in the Dominion of Canada or the island of Newfoundland, whether directly or having touched at any other port, excepting such vessels shall be in distress of navagation and of needed repairs and sap-plies therefor; and be may also forbid the entrance or importation, either by land or water, into the United States of any goods, wares or merchandise from the aforesaid Dominion of Canada or Newfoundland, or any locomotive, car or other vehicle from the Dominion of Canada; and upon proof that privileges secured by article twenty-uine of the treaty concluded between the United States and Great Britain on the 6th of May, 1871, are denied as to goods, wares and merchandise arriving at ports of British North America, tne president may also by proclamation forbid the exercise of like privileges as to goods, wares and merchandise, arriving in any of the ports of the United States, and any person violating or attempting to violate the provisions of any proclamation issued under this act, and any person preventing or attempting to prevent any officer of the United States from enforcing such proclamation shall forfeit and pay to the United States the sum of $100 and shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof shall be liable to imprisonment to a term not exceeding two years, by both of said punishments, in the discretion of the court, and it on any after date at which s.ich proclamation takes effect, the master or other person in charge of any vessel thereby excluded from the ports of the United States shall do, in ports, harbors, or waters of the United States for or on account of such vessels any act forbidden by such proclamation aforesaid, such vessel, and its furniture and boats and all goods on board shall be liable to seizure and forfeiture to the United States, and any goods, wares or merchandise and any car, locomotive or other vehicle coming into the United States in violation of any proclamation as afterwards, shall be seized and forfeited to the United States.

The remaining sections of the bill give the president power to withdraw or reissue the proclamation whenever circumstances warrant such action and provide for the appointment of a commission to take testimony with respect to damages inflicted upon American citizens and American vessels. The committee adjourned without reaching a point of action. Secretary Manning Resigns. Secretary Manning called at the White House Monday afternoon and placed bis resignation in the hands of the president to take effect on the appointment and qualification of his successor. The action is taken in order to allow Mr.

Manning to accept the presidency of the Western National bank of New York. His letter of resignation will not be made public for some days. It Is stated at the White House that no immediate appointment will be made to the office and that Mr. Manning will continue to act as secretary fpr several weeks. The president's veto of the dependent relatives' pension bill was discussed without result Monday by the boose committee on invalid pensions.

The president has allowed the act appropriating $400,000 a year to provide arms and equipments for the militia to become a law without his signature. Mr. George H. Pendleton says that after a few days' longer stay in Washington he will go home to Cincinnati for a visit of a week or two, and then return to his post at Berlin. Col.

Jameson, general superintendent of the railway mail service, has resigned. Thomas E. Nash, chief clerk of the post-ofllcc department, has been appointed to fill the vacancy. MISDEEDS AND MISHAPS. The Western Floods, The whole country from Lyons, to Muir is a scene of desolation.

Many merchants' have been unable to visit their stores since Thursday morning and several who attempted were swept down by the current and narrowly escaped death. All the merchants lose heavily. All manufacturing establishments are crippled and many buildings ruined. The ice gorge shows no signs of breaking. It is solid glaciers five miles long and 15 or 20 feet thick.

The loss of property will doubtless reach 150,000. January 1 200,000 head of cattle and 25,000 sheep on tha ranges north and Bouth of the Yellowstone river, wit inn a radius ox iuu miles of this point. Ud to that date stock had not suffered much from the severity of the winter, but during January aud the half of February just closing, storms have been of unprecedented frequency, and the tem perature nas averaged tne lowest ior niteen years. Jt is not possible to accurately estimate the losses, but they have been enormous, in some places amounting to the practical annihilation of whole herds. A Tongue river stockman says At Lignite, where my herd is located, I saw a piteous sight.

As far as I could sec up and down the river cattle were standing knee deep in the snow, unable to obtain a Diaue oi grass ior susieuunce tutu giiumug me woou oi iuu wmuwsas it jasii. resui i hi a space fifty yards square I counted 25 dead beasts, and a cowboy told me there were fully 1,000 dead cattle between Lignite and Moon Creek, a few miles above. The living cattle are almost unable to move, as their feet and ankles are but raw masses of bleeding flesh from having been cut at every step by the crusted snow. They occasionally go upon the ice in search of water, and Ending an air hole tumble into the river. Men cutting ice saw thirty cattle drown In two hours.

They could not be driven away, as they were mad with thirst. At Haverhill, a young daughter of Laura S. Wassou fell on the ice Sunday, sustaining injuries which will probably prove fatal. The jail at Murfreesboro, was burned Saturday. Moses Maney, Nelson Lyon and John Erwin, all colored, were burned to death.

Fifteen others escaped. Rev. Father Meron, a clergyman from New York, was robbed of $75 and a gold watch in one of the leading Montreal hotels Monday. He left his door open, when the thieves entered and made the haul. The man named Schofleld, who was reported to have been foully murdered in Winnipeg on Saturday night, is in jail at Minneapolis.

He said he killed two chickens, and scattered the blood about the office to give the impression that he hod been murdered. He did this to escape domestic trouble. Edward E. Ball, collector of Fompton township, X. has been held in $10,000 bail to answer the charge of having forged the names of Richard Sloan aud Peter De-baun to his official was for $10 000 and given as security for the faithful performance of the duties of his office.

Ball asserts that the signatures arc genuine. Charles Klose, a SchleisioeerviUe, saloon keeper, loaded two shotguns Sunday evening and emptied the contents of one Into his wife's head as she was knead ing bread, killing her instantly. He then tried to shoot himself, but merely blew away one cheek. He locked the doors, poured kerosene over the furniture, and set the house ablaze. When the neighbors tried to enter he reloaded one of the guns and blew out his brains.

IN GENERAL. Opinions of the C. A. R. Wanted.

The following circular was issued Monday from the national headquarters of the Grand Army of the Republic, signed by Commander-in-Chief Fairchild In view of the recent veto of the dependent pension bill, and of the very great importance of that measure to many of our disabled comrades who need and are justly entitled to help, it is recommended that the posts and comrades everywhere, by resolutions and letters, immediately inform the members of congress who are entitled to and will gladly receive these expressions of opinion of their approval or disapproval of the principles involved in the vetoed bill. Comrades are requested to move at ouce without waiting for a printed circular. Snowflakes Larger than Milk Pans. Curious phenomena sometimes attend a snowfall. Near Matt Coleman's ranch, January 28, the flakes were tremendous in size.

Some were larger than milk pans. Some flakes measured fifteen inches square and eight inches thick. For miles the ground was covered with such bunches, and they made a remarkable spectacle while falling. A mail carrier was caught in the same storm and verified it. The prohibition war In Iowa has reached that stage that the governor threatens impeachment proceedings against a United States judge.

At Santa Una, 11 is positively stated that the famous San Joaauin ranche, contain; ins 400,000 acres, has been sold for to a syndicate representing the Southern Pacific railway. At Syracuse, N. a great fair for the benefit of St. Joseph's hospital was opened by telegraph by President Cleveland at 1 o'clock Monday. The fair is held in the state armory and all Syracuse takes part in it i The republican joint caucus of the New Jersey legislature Monday night nominated William J.

8ewall for United States senator. Three members strongly protested against him and then withdrew to the ante-room. The result of the democratic caucus Is not known. The Boston baseball club agree to pay Michael Kelly, the released Chicago right-fielder, $2000 for his services the coming season, and to give him $3000 for his photograph to place In the club's album, making his compensation for the season $5000. Kelly received only $2250 from the Chicagos last year.

At Bloomlngton, 111., the Salvation Army are wild in their rejoicing over what they claim was the miraculous cure by faith on Saturday night of Mrs. Richardson, an alleged sufferer from abscess of the stomach and paralysis. After several hours of supplication by captains, lieutenants and privates of the army, aided by several praying citizens, Mrs. Richardson stretched out her paralyzed arm, and cried out she was well. Her doctors and the neighbors declare she never was as ill as she claimed to be.
