Senato Judiciary Committee, composed a of Senators Evarte, Hoar and Pugb. 8 As the measure is ono of great im- f portance, the sub-committee have been giving it cartful attention, and, after ** conieriDR win a number 01 Associate Justices and other legal lights, have decided to modify it in some respects. Instead of providing for 18 additional Circuit Judges, tho number has been reduced to nine. This number is thought to bo Buflicient. Tho Appellate Court will,' therefore, consist of ono of tijo'qew Judges, and one of the present Circuk or District Judges. In other respects tho bill has not been materially changed. The committee expect to have the bill ready to report to the Senate early next week, and an effort will bo made to secure immediate consideration. The Associate Justices are very anxious that it should be passed as early as possible, so that it may go into operation at the commencement of the October term. TUB SILVUK JHLL DlMcuiiftctl lu tlid JIoubo?Vote to bo Tnkeu Tlilx Afternoon. Washington, June 0.?The Silver debate was resumed in tho House this morning, Mr. Liud, of Minnesota, being the first speaker. ? Ho represented, ho said, an agricultural district, tho farmers of which were not poor, but not wholly prosperous. Tho depressed condition was due to the low prices of agricultural products. He believed that prices were affected by the amount of money in circulation. '.The increase of circulation advanced prices, and shrinkage of circulation diminished them. ' " Tho increaso in tho purchasing value ' t wno ilnn Ir\ tlin 1at*t tlint ilo rirru (taction was decreasing, while its use in art was increasing. If eilver had been f allowed to retain its placo_as money i throughout the world, it too, would have 1 enhanced in purchasing power. Filver, J he said, should be restored to its former 1 position. This was demanded by the 1 great mass of the American people. It * was no argument to say that the pnoplo did not understand the question. Thoy J did. The people could think and reason 1 as well as a member of Congress. The 1 judgment of the popular mind, like wo- i man's reasoning, was generally right. Commenting on the three measures ] before the House, Mr. Lind said that the Treasury bill was the most objection- ' able. Under a friendly Secretary it 1 might he made useful in increasing the 1 volume of currency, but under an un- j friendly Socretary it might be danger- ' ous. Personally, ho believed the free coinage bill presented not only tbo best but the quickest way to settle the whole question; but he believed that it was best to yield something even to prejudice, if by so doing legislation almost ' equally efllcacious and less objectionable tq some classes besecurod. Such a measure was the Republican caucus : bill. .Mr. Flower, of Now York, confined his remarks not to the Bilvor question, but to a constitutional amendment relegating to tho people within prescribed localities the choice of such aaministra/ tive ollicials whoso functions of oflice He entirely within tho prescribed area and whoso choico (b of consequence only to tho people whom they Immediately Berve, Mr. 2,acey, of Iowa, said there woe an absolute shortage of funds. Tho pending bill, which was practically a freo coinage bill, propound to increiuo tho circulation to offset the contraction. It was a freo coinage measure becauso it proves that when silver was at par the mints should be open to freo coinage. The country needeu an expansion of tho currency, in a sale way, which this bill provided. Mr. Walker, of Massachusetts, denied that there was business depression because of low prices. There was not a solitary fact that justified the statements nade in favor o( free coinage. There was never a day sinco the sun shone on ho earth when a farmer could pay his lebts with as few days' work as he could o-day. Trices had been going down for 00 years. Tho demonetization of silver lad not tho slightest appreciable effect on hodepreclation of prices. Money had uo >)ace in economics; it was an incident in conomics. You might destroy all the ;old and silver in tho world to-night, nd wake up in tho morning and the rorld would not be hurt one iota. It Kos an absolute disgrace to tho House o hear the rot that was talked here; nd he had talked some of it himself, lo asserted that there was not another tusiness in the country that could have lad as much over-production as tho irming industry, and iret anvthinp fnr la goods. He said be" would vote for bis biJJ. A Silver Tlirenti Washington, Juno G.?Tho National IxecuUve Silver Committee to-day dopted a resolution to tho effect that i case o satisfactory measure for tho estoration of silver to its former placo 9 a money metal be not enacted, it will all a National Silver Convention, in iiichtho Farmers' Alliance and all ther industrial organizations will bo inked to join with bUmetallista every- 1 'here with a view to sinking politics ad makingtho silver question the conrolling issue in future campaigns, parcularly in Congressional districts in 1 le next election, and advise that noody be supported for Congress, or the . residency, who is not in favor of such lli restoration. The committee regard ith unalterable disfavor any bullion idemption provision. KICK STATE' OF AFFAIRS t Cedar Key*, Florida?Mayor CottreH'* OutragcouH Action. Washington, Juno 0.?The President ;nt to the Senate to-day in response to resolution of May 2G, requesting inirmation cpncerning the alleged landi/j of an armed force from the United lates Ravenue cutter McLane, at Cedar leys, Florida, and tho alleged entry of ie uuudco ui cmzeub oy iorco an<i tueir j leged pursuit of citizens of the United l tatea in tho surrounding country, a t Iter containing what bo describes as 1 the information possessed by the ] xecutivo Department, relating to the ] tattera inquired about. "It will be observed," savs the Presi- t ent, "that tho U. S. Collector of (Jus- j )ins of Cedar Keys, had been driven i oin his office aud from the town and ( le administration of the Customs laws j I the United States at that port sua- ( ended by tho violent demonstration f ad threata of one Cottrell, the Mayor of j io place, assisted by his town marshal, * [itchell. If it bad been necessary, as I o not think it can be in any case, for a < i. S. officer to appeal to local authorities ; tr immunity from violence in tboexrcise of his duties, the situation at 1 edar Keys did not suggest such an ap- c eal, for those to whom the appeal < ould have been addressed, were them- . ilvea the lawleaa instruments of the { ireatened violence. It will always be t ?reeablo to me if the local authoritiea j cliog upon their own sense of duty, t mintain the public order in such a way aat ollicers of the United States shall ave no occasion to appeal for the interention of tho general government, but i ?hen this is not done, I shall deem it jy duty to use the adequate powers ested in the Executive to make it safe nd feasible to hold and exercise the * flices established by the Federal Coh- ( titution and laws. The means used in ( bis case were, in my opinion, lawful j nd necessary, and tho ollicers do not eein to have intruded upon any private ' ight in executing the warrants placed 1 a their hands. The letter dated August < th, last, which appears in the corres- I londence submitted, appealing to me to 1 ntervene for the protection of tho city I if f!o<Inr Tv dvh /rnm hrutnl viftlonwi 11 if Cottreli, it will be noticed, was writ- ( en before the appointment of the new ! Collector. That the o/licera ol the law i hould not have had the full aympatby if every good citizen in their efforts to jring these men to merited punishment 8 a matter of surprise and regret. It is , i very grim commentary upon the conlition of social order at Cedar Keys, hat only a womau, that had, as she lays in her letter, no son, or husband, vho could be made the victim of bis nalice, bad the courage to file charges igaiuBt this man, who was then holding i subordinate place in the customs service." The papers accompanying tho message nclude the correspondence between the Department of Justice and Marshal Weeks, and between the Treasury Department and the customs oflicers, and jflicers of the Revenue Cutter McLane, vliich was sent to Cedar Keys. The dated report of S. L. Estrangr, United States Deputy Marshal, who wua lent to Cedar Kevs to search for Cotrt 11 and Mitchell with warrants for heir arrest, shows that Cottreli was not outid, but Mitchell was arrested and reeased on bail. Estrange Buys that he md Captain Smythe, of the McLane, vere .victimized by people who foiled ,hcm several times in their eiforta to :apturo Cottreli. The Captain of a iteam launch owned by E. Faber, demanded $30 a day for the use of tho veslei to make a trip up the Suwanee, *rhere it was believed Cottreli was hidng, whtn $10 a day, it is said, would lave been a bi& price. After Mitchell's relense, be was reinitateil in office. "So < m nuy safely inrer that the policy of Mayor G'ottrell has jeen fully endorsed. Not one word ippeared in the newspaper published riere (Cedar Keys) in relation to tho lifiicultiea between Coltrell and the Collector." The reports of Captain Sipythe, of the McLane, and J. H. Pinker ton, Collector it Cedar keyB, agree with tho reports that have been published. Pinkerton jays; "I heard that Cottrell said that United States Attorney Stripling would not prosecute him as they were particular friend*, ami J must say pat Mr. Stripling discouraged my action in the matter and advised me to wait until Oottrell made further demonstrations, ind then to take a shot guu and shoot bim if he interfered."

Washington, Pa., Juno 0.?Several Umea during the term of court, which is now in session hero, there have been reporta floating around that jurors wero using intoxicating drinks while deliberating on cases. Yesterday afternoon it became evident to tho court that such was the case, and a juryman who had iust returned a yerdict was brought be-1 loro the judge, and, on boing questioned, admitted that ho had been drinking. The judge reprimanded him severely and committed him to jail until he should pay afino of $25, TWO PERSONS KILLED Near Charleston, W. Va,, by Flash of Lightning.

In it he finds an e that legal steps in accordance with the stl h church discipline had resulted in Bishop , i- Esher's suspension. In view of this the bu d judge thinks Usher had no right to pre- w* e side over the Illinois conference, and rai that body acted iii strict conformity to e the discipline in appointing a presiding oilicer, and if their proceedings therein i. were regular all were bound by its acta; r01 0 and if the ministers sent out with the toe b seal of conference attached to their cer- tw D titicatea were the appointed ministers th( s sent to their respective districts, he don't c0] 1 see any reasonable cause to doubt their pa ? ouunmijr. ir "But Buppoee the action of the Illinois wn Conference was improper, did the mere we ) fact that he, Eaher, went off aud set up ity f a conference somewhere else make it a t0, . legal conference? If he could take twen- raj 1 ty members and go off and set up a con- i3i 3 ference with any kind of a minority it we ; wouldn't make any difference how many th< i there were. Can it be possible that a - minority can set up a conference to 3 transact business without any majority ? ] a I don't think a man would make any ^ - Buch claims. If he could do it with - twenty or thirty he could do it with five mc or ten. If the minority rules it could Th rule just as well with three. The whole thi theory of government is that the major- vir 1 ity must rule in church, and in state tho ha' majority must rule." Th 3 Coming down to the Naperville wr !. trouble Judge Smith says: "While it Tw - is true that under the statute of the in ? State the trustees have the control of fre I the church to look after its property for Ea q the benefit of tho congregation, they 1 have only such a control as the law gives, and have no right to shut up the J church on account of the mere fact that he they have charge of the church property; poi it does not give them any right to lock . - uj> the church whether majority or minority.
