The House to day adjourned immediately after the reading of the journal out of respect to the memory of Representative J. S. Sal mon of New Jersey. This is the third consecutive legis lative day on which the House has paid a similar tribute of respect to one of its deceased members. Never before in the history of the House have three dcfks ben draped at the tuime time. It was a coincidence remarked upon by members today in connection with the deaths of Messrs. Cummings, Otey and S.ihnon that Mr. Cummings was appointed on the committee to attend the Rosecrans obsequies at Arlington, that Mr. Otey was appointed on the committee to attend the funeral of Mr. Crmmings, and that Mr. Salmon was designated to attend the funeral of Mr. Otey. The chaplain, in his invocation upon the assembling of the House, referred feelingly to Mr. Salmon's death, and Mr. larker then announced the death of his colleague. In doing so he paid a high tribute to the character of Mr. Salmon. He offered the usual resolu tions of sorrow and regret, and they were unanimously adopted. The Speaker appointed the following committee to attend the funeral: Messrs. Gardner, Loudenslager, How ell, Fowler. Stewart. Parker and Mc Dermott of Xew Jersey: Graff of Illi nois; Ball of Texas. Lloyd of Missouri, Xevin of Ohio and Claude Kitchin of j Xor-.h Carolina. As a further mar of respect, the House then at 12:10 adjourned. power.

President Robinson declared that he had contracts with rv two players I which gave him their exclusive services this season. Judge FicheT, who had been asked fnf a similar injunction to restrain Heid rlek from playing with the American league local team, also denied the peti tien. The reasoffs given In both case for denying the petitions for injunction were that the jndges found the contracts igncd by the players with the National League were one-ided and contrary to the constitution.

Mr. Il.nte died suddenly at a late hour lant night at the Red House, Camberley, near Aldershot, from hemorrhage, caused by an affection of the tliroat. The well-known poet and author had been living qu.ietly in England for year.'. Most of his time was spent in the coun trv. and when in London he was almost equally secluded, having few visitors to his rooits at La nearer tinte and going to the houses only of a limited number of very intimate friends. The evening newspapers refer in the mont svmpathetic terms to the death of Bret'e Harte. The Pall Mall Gazette says "profound regret will be felt wherever the English language is spoken and read. His name was one of those which the endearing bond of common language rendered common property of Anglo-Saxons on both sides of the At lantic. His was one of those that Bri tons cannot regard as the name of an alien. Brete Harte will live in the Eng lish language as the pioneer of the short story. His followers have been legion, while few can boast that they have beaten Brete Harte." In his detachment in October. 1901. from i Crmsman Pon is notified that In- dnty as commandant of the Boston navy ector Boushee, who was in his dis- yaru. iue iiuujruuiie inusc ul uetiui wa ;.a cereliral hemorrhage at 11 o'clock this morning. Paralysis of the brain was simultaneous with the final attack, and the admiral remained totally uncon scious until the end. six hours later. For nearly a year it has been known to Admiral Sampson's physicians and hh? family that his death was a question of a comparatively shOTt time. Before then, however, he had been in poor health, and while he was able to perform in some measure the duties of his posi tion at the Beaton navy yard, those close-to him began to suspect that his Ijnind was giving way. The first real knowledge that Admiral Sampson s health was failing came to the officials of the Xavy Department in the fall of l!)0O. when ho made a trip here to see President McKinley and Secretary Long in 'behalf of a son-in-law, who was an applicant for a commission -in the ma rine con. lie became so in in sec retary Long's office that medical attem tion W required, and Mr. Long sent hi:n back to Boston in the care of a naval surgeon. The illness which finally resulted in his death may be said to have dated from that time. According to the medical diagnosis Admiral Sampson's trouble was soften ing of the brain with degeneration of the internal system, and these were accom panied by extreme physical weakness. Last Sunday he was able to take a short walk, but on returning to his residence was attacked by a slight hem orrhage of the brain which produced partial unconsciousness. There had been three attacks of this nature, each tend ing to sap his strength, but despite nis enfeebled condition, he always rallied and was able to be about the house or occasionally to take a stroll in the care c.f Mrs. Sampson or an attendant. Since the attack Sunday he remained in a comatose condition, gradually growing weaker from recurrence of the hemor lhagi's. until the severe attack came this afternoon. Those who witnessed the end were Mrs. Sampson, the admiral's daughter. Mrs. Watt Cluverius, the wife of a lieu tmant in the navy: Ralph Earl Samp on and Harold Sampson, the admiral's sons, aged fifteen and thirteen years re spectively: Medical Director William S. Dickson," -of the navy, and his trained Mrs. Sampson, wno was pio.v trier, five weeks, established seven new romes. Congressman Bellamy is in formed that eleven new routes were put in effect in his district May 1st, and that five more are to go into effect in Robeson county July 1st. .Light House at Cap tlaMeraa The Senate Committee on Commerce has adopted the report of the snb-eom-mittee for the coustruction of a light house off Cape Hatteras in compliance with the contract offered by Albert F. Ells, he bill has been favorably re ported to the Senate by Senator Mc Millan. In his report accompanying the bill Senator McMillan says: "The bill has not the approval of the light house board, but your committee, after long and careful consideration, have come to a conclusion that a light house at this point would be of very great benefit to navigation, and that the government may well give Captain Ella and his associates an opportunity to at tempt to place one there. The bill ha been so amended as to amply protect the government. Should the project fall the government" will lose nothing. Should it be successful the government will have secured a much desired light house at reasonable cost. The loss of property and lives in this vicinity has been very great and has been largely due to the want of a proper light. Tx neglect any opportunity for such a valu able aid to navigation offering reason able prospect of success would be repre hensible. t "There appears to be a difference ol opinion among engineers as to the feasi bility of erecting this structure on the outer Diamond shoal, but Captain Ells and his associates appear confident of their ability to construct a light house at this point. The tll provides that no payment shall be made for same until after the structure has been completed and approved and remained "lighted and securely established for ne year. The remainder of the consideration is not to be paid until the end of the second year. , "It is only proper to say that the committee regard the sum to be paid for the construction of this light houee as most reasonable, and this is particu larly true in view of the hazard and prospect of loss connected with the un dertaking." In this correspondence last night, through an error in transmission, Judge Shepherd was represented as removing the question of jurisriction in reference to the South Kakota suit, what he did was to expressly reserve the question. Mqj. Gardiner's Charges Given fo the Public Cruelty and Harsh Treatment Practiced on Natives-Wanton Destruction of Property Washington, May 6.
