Nearly Fatal smoke.

The Old Davis Mansion.
The War Department has sent com
munication to the City Council OF Rich
mond, offering to surrender the Davis
mansion to the city authorities on condition
that all claims for rent or damages shall be
reiinquished For some time the Govern
ment has been holding this property on
the ground that il belonged to the Confed-
eracy. 1t was purchased by the city of
Richmond early in the war and presented
t. the Rebel Government for the residence
Of its President Proof Of this purcha
and donation has, however, been lost.
The Return OF WhIttemOrc.
Nearly complete returns for Congress
man from the First District of South Caro-
lima give Whittemore 9, 504 votes and Dunn
1889. Two years ago the Republicans cast
II, 467 votes and the Democrats IL, 018.
The Charleston Ne5cS says that many of
the colored voters were disguised with
Whittemore and felt the disgrace he had
brought upon them, and that the failure of
white voters to support Mr. Dunn was, in
al probability, mainly due to the feeling
that it is better to let Whittemore go back
to Congress with ali his sins on his head
Democratic Caucus.
The Democratic Senators and members
held a caucus at the capitol last night,
Representative Randall, Of Penn, in the
chair. proposition for an effective cam
paign organization in close Congressional
districts with view of electing Democratic
Representatives next fall was discussed,
and it was finally agreed to appoint COM
mittee consisting of Senator Thurman, of
Ohio, Senator Hamilton, of Maryland, and
Representatives Woodward, Beck and Stra-
der 10 take the matter under advisement
and devise a plan. The caucus discussed
the feasibility of uniting on some financial
policy, but an adjournment was carried
without any result having been reached.
A campaign committee, to be located in
Washington, will probably be decided on.
Deficiency Bills.
It came out in debate in the House des-
pite the pretensions of the reform and re-
tronchment made by the Republicans in
passing the appropriation bills, that there
had been deficiency bills already passed
amounting to the enormous sum of ten
millions Of dollars, being seven millions
more than a Republican member boosted
there would be in January last. Mr.. Beck,
of kentucky, reiterated his statement of
two weeks ago, that 1000 clerks were en-
pIoyed in the Treasury Department whose
specific salaries were not provided for by
law.
Naturalization.
The friends of the naturalization bill de-
feated yesterday secured to-day a recon-
sideration and recommittal of the same to
the Judiciary Committee. This committee
will not be called again at this session for
reports, and there is no way in which the
subject can be again brought before the
House at this session. A reconsideration
was carried by very close vote to-day,
and would have been lost if there had not
been some absentees on the Democratic
side.

lie, of the Supreme Court Of the district,

appearance to answer certain customhouse
