From information received on the

HALLS OF CONGRESS
DAILY PROCEEDINGS OF BOTH
HOUSE AND SENATE.
What Our National Law-Makers are
Doing for the Country.
In the house, Tuesday, Mr. Boatner
eadeavored to secure the immediate
consideration of Senator Hill's anti
anarchist bill, but Mr. Warner, of
New York, objected 60 strennously
that the bill went over. The consid
eration of Mr. Hoar's anti-lottery bill
was prevented by objection from Mr.
Davey, of Louisiana. The house then
adjourned until Thursday.
About fifty members were present
when the houee- met ""Thursday morn
ing. A number of senate bills were
laid before the house and several
passed. Mr. Cummings, chairman of
the committee of naval affairs, pre
sented a report of the committee's in
vestigation of alleged frauds in tho
manufacture of armor plate. At 1:10
the house adjourned.
The house at Friday's session passed
a joint resolution providing for the
adjournment of the present session of
congress at 2 o'clock p. m. Tuesday,
August 28th. Another effort was made,
also unsuccessfully, to consider the
Hill bill for the exclusion and depor
tation of alien auarchists. An amend
ment had been agreed upon by the ad
vocates of tho measure, and those
members who had previously antago
nized it, defining an anarchist to bo a
person who advocates the destruction
by force of all governments or of the
government of the United States. This
satisfied the ' objections heretofore
made, but Mr. English, of New Jersey,
entered an objection, and tho bill again
went over this time probably finally
- for this session. Two or threo un
important measures were passed and
after a session of an hour, the house
adjourned until Monday.
THE 8ENATK.
When the senate met Wednesday
morning 21 senators were present
less than half of a quorum. Upon a
later call 32 answered. Mr. Harris
moved that absentees bo sent for, and
this was agreed to. At 1 :20 o'clock a
quorum was securod and the senate
went into executive session. The ex
ecutive session lasted but a few min
utes, and at 1 :40 the senate adjourned
until Thursday. Immediately after
wards a long list of confirmations of
presidential nominations to minor of
fices were made public.
Even before the reading of Wednes
day's journal the absence of a quorum
in the senate Thursday morning was
pointed out by Mr. Manderson and
the roll was called, showing the pres
ence of thirty-three senators, ten less
than a quorum. Mr. Harris moved
that the sergeant at arms bo directed
to request the presence of absent sena
tors, but Pasco and Cockrell pointed
out that the order made Thursday was
still in forco and the latter asked that
the report of the sergeant at arms be
read. This was done aud reported
that of forty-two senators who had
failed to answer to their names the
previous day only two were in tho city
and one of these, Mr. Voorhees, was
too ill to attend. The others were tel
egraphed to attend immediately. Up
to 12:30 o'clock thirty-five senators
had responded. At that hour it
being apparent that a quorum
could not bo secured, upon mo
tion of Mr. Harris, the sergeant-at-arms
was directed to compel the atten
dance of the absent senators. This, it
is said, will not amount to anything as
the sergeant-at-arms has always and
now refuses to arrest the senators, and
bring them before the bar of the
senate, unless he is given a warrant
for their arrest. The senate has al
ways likewise refused to issue its war
rant. As a matter of fact, a quorum
could be obtained if all the republi
cans would vote, as there are a number
about the building who have so far
declined to enter the chamber. At
1 :18, tho senate, pending tho ex
ecution of an order to compel the
members to attend, adjourned un
til Friday. This was owing
to the fact that it was de
monstrated to bo impossible to get a
quorum. Executive clerk, Prudcn,
reached the capitol at 1:15 with some
important nominations, but owing to
the absence of a quorum they could
not be laid before the senate. They
were takeu back to the white house.
The session of the senate Friday
lasted until 1:25 o'clock p. m., and
then adjourned until Monday. The
general public was excluded from the
chamber during all but four minutes
of the session, the remainder of the
time being spent behind closed doors.
There was no test as to whether or not
a quorum of the senators was actually
present, and in fact, matters were so
arranged in advance by mutual agree
ment that the question did not arise.
The matters discussed in secret were
not exclusively of an executive char
acter. On tho contrary, eight or ten
bills (three of them bridge bills) were
taken from the calendar and passed,
and the concurrent resolution for the
final adjournment of congress on Tues
day at 2 o'clock p. m. was laid before
the senate and was passed without a
word of opposition and without a vote
in the negative. The senate then, at
1 :25 o'clock, adjourned until Monday.
Thirty-Seven Miners Dead.

The national league for the abolition
of the house of lor'ds made a demon
stration in Hyde park, London, Sun
day. It had been much advertised
and was expected to be an imposing
affair, but it was a fiasco. Hardly ten
thousand persons were present.
Shortly afternoon Friday an explo
sion of gas took place in the works of
the Philadelphia and Reading Coal
and Iron company's colliery, at Gil
berton, Pa., by which one man was
killed, one fatally injured and nine
others more or less seriously burned.
The United States steamship Charles
ton sailed from Vallejo.Cal., for China,
via Honolulu, Sunday. The Philadel
phia docks in a day or two. ,The Ben
nington is now being fumigated. Sev
eral of the crew have been allowed
their liberty and there is evidently no
serious malady aboard.
A dispatch to the London Times
from Lima, Peru, says that a band of
six hundred insurgents, armed with
Winchester rifles, is reported to be
moving northward on the southern
frontier. The government has sent
further reinforcements south and a
collision is daily expected.
Saturday tho Pythian camp on the
monument grounds, in Washington,
D. C, was formally turned over by
the citizens' committee to Major Gen
eral Carnahan, commander-in-chief of
the order. All the tents have been
erected, and everything is in readiness
there for the visiting organization.
In the face of a general belief in
the magnificent condition of the
cotton crop, The Garland Neivs pub
lished in the heart of the cotton
region of Dallas county, Texas, states
that in that section half of the cotton
crop has been destroyed by boll worms,
and if the showers continue, the crop
is likely to be entirely destroyed.
Tho democratic ticket, so far as
nominated by the California state con
vention is as follows : Governor, James
H. Budd ; lieutenant governor, William
T. Jeters ; justice of the supreme court
(long term), Jackson Temple and
James E. Muiphy; justice of the su
preme court (short term), E. A. Bridge
ford; secretary of state, Ben M. Mad
dox ; attorney general, A. B. Parris.
Tho stir among the coal miners at
Belt, Mont., has ended with the com
pany's closing down all its mines com
pletely and permanently. The pumps
have been drawn, the stores and hotels
closed and all the contracts for ma
chinery canceled. Work on the rail
road branches has also been abandon
ed. About 400 men are thus thrown
out of employment.
Fire broke out Saturday night in the
commission house of Jones, Lee & Co.,
Norfolk, Va. , and communicated to three
adjoining buildings stored with pea
nuts and cotton. The fire department
has recently been reorganized and
fought the flames savagely, keep
ing the loss down to $50,000, al
though at one time it looked as if tho
whole block would go. The property
destroyed was fully covered by insur
ance. There were no new developments in
the industrial situation at New Bed
ford, Mass., Friday. After one full
week the trouble is no nearer a solu
tion than it was tho day it started.
The Bristol, Pierce, Acushnet, Hatha
way and Potowamat have paid off their
help to the last cent. Tho Wamsutta
will pay for stock in the looms Mon
day. What money the operatives have
they are husbanding with great care
and preparing for a long struggle.
Four miners in the Amethyst mine
at Crede, Col., were literally bruised,
burned and boiled to death Friday
morning. The shaft caught fire from
a candle and so great was the heat that
the wire cablo holding the ship was
melted, and the huge iron cage, heated
to a red heat, fell to the bottom of the
shaft, carrying with it the four men
who were on the ladders. It will take
a day or to recover tlje bodies. The
loss on the mills and machinery will
be about $20,000.
At Birmingham, Ala., the conclu
sioa of the preliminary trial of 120
miners, for participation in the Pratt
Mines riot was reached Friday. The
tiial was in progress for more than
three weeks and during that time
about GOO were examined. Out of the
120 tried, 95 were turned loose. Ten
are held without bond and fifteen were
allowed bonds. There is strong evi
dence against the ten that have not
been allowed bond and there is a
probability that they will stretch
hemp.

leons, in the rusting marlinspikes
and shattered tiller heads, swinging
to the mistral, in reverential offering
before the shrines. These graces
after danger.these insurances against
evil to come, circle the world. No
people have escaped the influence of
such hopes and thanks. Our Indians
were fettered by them, and no cere
monious offerings were more com
mon tbnn those which went to ap
pease the angry Spirit of the Waters.
On the upper tributaries of the Miss
issippi, the Indians, with occult rites,
gave tribute of tobacco from it beet
ling cliff to the (Jreat Spirit of the
River, and to the winds that smote
the water with blasts from the cav
erns of the jealous gods. Algonquin
in the North, Aztecs, sons of Ata
hualpa and Marco Oapac, in tho
South all blew incense out of their
pipes, and strewed upon the currents
and tide-ways just such offerings of
tobacco as, in our more subjective
days, we give with lost meaning tothe
minor gods who rule the man's hour
in our feasts.
