GENETA ANARD.

! AT the meeting of the House Judiciary
Committee Monday morning, several of the
most important points connected with the pro-
posed legislation for the distribution of the
Geneva award were determined. BY vote
of six to four, it was decided that the distribu-
ton should be made by the court and not by
commission. Ii was then agreed, by vote
of eight to two, that the business should be
done by single court instead Of any Circuit
Court before which claimant may appear, as
proposed in one of the pending bills. By six
to four the committee next voted that the ac-
tual losses allowed by the Geneva tribunal
! only should be paid. motion to include the
actual losses presented but not allowed was
lost by tie vote. 1t was decide d by the same
vote of six to four TO admit the war risks
by like vote Gen. Buffers section to allow
insurance companies to participate in the
award where they can show that their losses
ON war risks exceeded their total receipts from
war premiums, was adopted. 1t was further
decided that interest on actual losses should be
paid at the rates of five per cent. from the date
OF the losses. The committee will first vote
on a pending motion to restore to the
bill section admitting claimants for actual
losses not allowed at Geneva, and war risks
in such losses, and will next decide the ques-
ton of priority of clases Of claims, and final
ly perfect the details Of the bill. Four men,
bers of the committee are in favor of admit
ting the claims of all insurance companies,
under the law of subrogation, and three mem
bers hold that all money awarded ought to be
covered into the Treasury, on the ground that
it was the nation at large that suffered most
by the depredations of the Anglo-Rebel cruis-

SPRING STYLES.

An exchange has the following in relation
to the styles, subject always interesting to
the ladies. Grenadne, the terror of seams
tresses on account of its tendency to ''fray,
and the delight of the dressmakers, because of
the opportunity which it gives them for dis
playing their skill in devising graceful designs,
is the most popular of the thin materials, and
its varieties are innamerable. This year,
embroidered grenadines will be much worn,
and purchasers find it hard to choose between
those ia which the tracery of flowers and vines
is Of black or lavender and those in which
daisies and violets and roses are represented
in their own colors. Linen grenadines are
also embroidered, and the same material is
shewn in natural colors for travelling suits,
and with large polka dots for ladies who like
10 remind beholders of circus horses. The
camefs hair grenadine, which has one stripe
smooth and one shaggy, is regarded as an inn
provement on the Algerine, with its alternate
rough and smooth stripes. and will probably
partly supersede it for polonaises. For these
garments, Japanese grenadines, made of linen
and raw silk, and of the popular ecru shades,
will be used. Batistes will be worn both for
pollnase and for entire suits, and some suits
which are shown at very low prices have pret-
tiy embroidered bands and wreaths in bronze
and ecru shades. Grenadine beaded bands
are also SHOWN IOr OVERWHELMING pain sulLS,
and the novelty of introducing little colored
beads, matching the shades of the floss EN-
broidery, appears on suits of silk aHd velvet
shown for sleeveless house jackets.
Among the Opaque fabrics shown are the soft
chalies, which have the merit of being delight
fully cool without looking too airy for the
most decorous of dowagers; yak cloth, which
appears in the fashionable olive Green and
olive brown; basket serges, which retain
their lustre in the most discouraging Newport
fogs and mountain mists; and Scotch plaids
of the very dark shades, for ladies who are
weary of the monotony of gray and buff travel
ling dresses.
Parasols and fans, those indispensable apen-
dases, are, as they always are, pretty, novel
and expensive, and both are to be very large.
Painted silk fans, gorgeous feather fans, and
lace fans almost too fragile for use, are the
most fashionable styles; the sticks are of bone
shell or handsome wood, and either plain or
carved, according to taste. Parasols have
fringes this year, and that which is partly
composed of jet is the most stylish. The
material is either heavy armure or gros grain
silk, and the slender handle may be either of
ebony, ccrneian or horn, and those ladies
who do not mind carrying heavy burden, if
by so doing they may appear stylish, can find
parasols with solid silver handles, which will
strike envy into the hearts of all their dear
est friends, and drive them to seek consolation
in whispering "plated.'
