The conference report on the Forti fication bill was presented and agreed to. Mr. Plumb offered a resolution (which was agreed to), calling on the Secretary of War for information as to the need of greater accommodation for ex-soldiers at the National Soldiers' Home of Hamp ton, Va., whether men having been dur ing the winter sheltered in tents, and whether part of the buildings that could have been used for their accommoda tion was not used for other than abso lutely necessary purposes.

At the conclusion of Mr. Quay's re marks, the Senate resumed considera tion of the : Consular and Diplomatic Apprporiation bill, to which the follow ing amendment had been agreed to in executive session: To enable the Presi dent to make an engagement with any such citizen or corporation of the United States as shall appear to possess means and facilities necessary to that end, for telegraphic communication be tween the United States and the King dom of Hawaii, which engagement shall contain provisions sufficient in the judgment of the President to secure to the government and citizens ot the United States early and equal com--munication by telegraph with said Kingdom on reasonable terms for "a period not less than fourteen years, a sum not exceeding $250,000 is appro "priated for each year during which the engagement shall be in operation, and during which such engagement shall be so in course of execution, not exceeding twenty years.

The Democrats who voted in the affirmative .were Messrs. Hampton, McPherson and Morgan; Republicans who voted in the negative were Messrs. Plumb, Quay and Wal cott.

Taylor, of Ohio, rising to a personal explanation, said Saturday in the heat of debate, he had used language towards the gentleman from Illinois (Fithian) which he was immediately sorry for. He had said that the gentle man from Illinois had the right to make a fool of himself, but not with his (Tay lor's) consent. The words were unrea sonable, unparliamentary and unjust, and he apologized to the House and to the gentleman, and regretted exceeding ly that he was, under the excitement of the moment, induced to make use of them. Applause. Mr. Fithian said that after hearing the manly statement of the gentleman from Ohio, he accepted the apolo gy in the same spirit in which it had been made. Mr. Cutcheon presented and the House adopted the conference report on the Army Appropriation bilL Mr. Owen, of Indiana, from the Com mittee on Immigration, reported a bill amending various acts relative to the immigration and importation of aliens under contract. Some objection was made that a measurejof such importance should be given more consideration than coujd be given on the fir.st reading, and - Mr. Owen withdrew it for the present. The House then went into Committee of the Whole on the Indian Apprppria- tion bill and without disposing of the bill the committee rose. MrJ Cutcheon, Chairman of the Com mittee on Naval Affairs, reported a lawman eSOlUtinS n the death f Gen' ShTrmnV regret'ad respect to Gen. bherman s memory were paid by Messrs. rntrViPon Hmcwnnr. Outhwaite, Hen derson of Illinois, Cogswell, -Vandever and Williams of Ohio. . Mr. Wheeler of Alabama voiced the sentiment of the Confederate soldiers in expressing his sorrow at the demise of Gen.

Cutcheon, Spinola, Cogs well, Cummings, Grosvenor, Kinsey, Henderson of Illinois, and Outhwaite. The House then adjourned. CHICAGO REVIEW. Fluctuations in Prices of Grain and Provisions. Ey Telegraph to the Morning Stai Chicago, Feb. 1G. Hutchinson was selling wheat, corn, oats and provisions, and his was the dominating local influ ence in the grain pits. Fluctuations in May were confined to 97 as the highest for the first hour. After touch ing 98i there w&s a break on free sell ing to 76 Y2 but there was little re covery before the close. . There was no news of importance affecting trades, and local influence governed trade throughout, which was light. Oats were about steady. The market was quiet, attracting little attention out i,ide of the local scalping crowd. The provision business was dull and generally heavy in tone without espe cial cause in anything which cropped up to-day to account for the downward ten dency of prices. Receipts of hogs were rather under previous estimates, but there was no activity in the demand for them. There was more than enough for all who wanted anything in the line of provisions and at the close pork was 2.c lower than . at the corresponding time on Saturday," having in the course ot the day been oc lower than the price it closed at. Lard closed at 2c decline since Sat urday. The decline in ribs is oc. "JACK THE RIPPER." A Fireman on a Steamer Recently Arrived at London Connected With the Last White Chapel Murder. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. London. Feb. 16. The latest dis covery made by the metropolitan police in connection with the White Chapel murder, Friday morning last, by which a women known as "Carrotty Nell" lost her life, bids fair to connect the man Sadler, now in custody with this "Jack the Ripper" crime. The metropolitan police now have in their possession a sharp, dangerous looking knife stained with blood and showing traces of having recently been 'washed. The blood stains were examined microscopically by Dr. Phillips, police surgeon, who has no doubt that the stains are thoseof human blood. This formidable knife has been traced to the possession of Sadler, who, as already stated, was fireman on board the steamer which recently arrived from Turkey. The police have no doubt that Sadler was the murderer of '-Carroty Nell." COTTON. The New York Futures Market Yesterday. Ey Telegraph to the Mornins Star. New York, Feb. 14. The Sun's cot ton circular says: Futures were unsettled, closing steady at 1 point advance on February and 1 to 2 points decline on other months from Saturday's closing prices. The market to-day was again a see-saw, with fluctu ations limited to a few points and finally showing little change. An early decline in Liverpool was followed by depression in this market; a partial recovery there was followed by some improvement here. Then the crop movement for the day at the principal interior towns, as well as at the ports began to show pret ty full figures, and the Southern markets began to report dullness or depression, or both. Selling to realize was there fore the impulse of the hour and prices declined, The last quarter of an hour developed a steadiness on some buying orders which came in at the last moment. But it was a point less weak, and if you asked a broker about some matter relating to it his reply was quite likely to be that of the boy in "Bleak House" "I don't know nothing, I don't." Spot cotton was dull. RAILROAD ACCIDENT. A Car Crushed by a Fallinj? Rock oa the Pennsylvania Eailroad. By Telegraph to the Mornins; Star. Pittsburg, Pa., Feb. 1G.

London, February 16. Two expert bank sneaks to-day robbed the clerk of the London branch of theBank of Scotland, of a leather satchel containing ,11,590 in Bank of England notes. The clerk was waiting at the teller's window of the National Provincial Bank with his satchel beside him. One of the sneaks attracted the clerk's attention and caused him to tarn, when the other sneak took the satchel and slipped away with it. In the confusion the first man escaped, and there seems no hope for their capture. The thieves are described as rather dudish young men and the police ven ture the opinion that they arc Ameri cans. The clerk who was robbed is only 17 years old. The money is easily dis posed of. THE PFLESBYYTERIANS. Revision of the Confession of Faith. Cy Te'.esraph to the Morning Star. Washington. Feb. 16 The Com mittee of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of the United States on revision of the Confession of Faith, after a very harmonious session, lasting eleven days, completed their work and adjourned at 6 o'clock this evening. The changes made have gen erally met with unanimous approval. Its work will be reported to the Assem bly in Detroit next May, and by it re ferred to Presbyteries for their adoption or rejection. The changes made in statements of the Confession have been of great importance, but have in no way impaired the integrity of the system or the doctrine so long held by the Church.

They say they will show us a dude that has brains But they can't drfit, you know : That Vanderbil't chanty wastes an his gains But they can't do it, you know; Policemen are never seen asleep on their beat; That they'll sweep banana peels off the street, And they'll stiow us a Wilmington girl with big feet But they can't do it, you know. My tailor oft tries to induce me to pay But he can't do it, you know; Then tries to convince me I'm not built that way ; But he can't do it, you know. To get even he makes me a suit of nice brown - That fits like the scalp on the head of a clown ; When I call on my girl and she says. pray sit down . Why I can't do it, you know. I always try to keep up with the times But-I can't do it you know. y And count my cash dollars instead of half dimes But I can't do it you know., I go to the balls, to the races and fairs, The girls flock around me with beauti ful airs, And try to persuade me 'tis time for re pairs But they can't do it you know. They say they locate the. fire by the alarm But they can't do it you know. And they try to convince us it works like a charm But they can't do it you know. But that Newman, the chief, with elec tricity queer, Never misses the mark and is willing to swear, If you'll follow his current you'll surely get there But you can't do it you know. Mv landlady's house I would give a good name But I can't do it, you know ; For her tea is so weak it will soon go lame But I can't do it, you know. She paints the hash red with her hair so wavy. Her beefsteak's so tough you can't cut the gravy, And her butter could lift the American navy So I can't do it, you know. She often tries to induce me to mash But I can t do it, you know. She would wed me and starve me and take all my cash But she can't do it, you know. She's a lantern-jawed widow with chil dren nine, Four boys and five girls, all healthy and fine, And says if I'll have her they shall all be mine But I can't do it, you know. On my corncob mattress repose I would take But I can't do it, you know. The mosquitoe's wail on my senses will break And I can't do it, you know. My creaky bedstead, though badly dis jointed, Is a musical one and handsomely mounted; But its population will never be count ed For you can't do it, you know.

You no doubt think strange that I talk so queer, But I saw the thing that Henry Sholar put there And I would certainly name it if I had a name to spare But I can't do it you know. They would say that our city is out of its head But they can't do it you know. To build a macadamized road to the na tional dead For they can't do it you know. We will give it to the stock company so witty, For we are too poor and such is the pity ; If we built it the soldiers would march to the city But they can't do it you know. They say they will give us electric street cars But they can't do it you know. When they do they will get the current from the stars B-it they can't do it you know.
