The q. Louis whisky Cases.

ST. LOUIS, Defender ia large
crowd assembled at the United States
District Court in anticipation that the
case of Supervisor Mum would be called,
but it was not. District Attorney Dyer,
however, presented the recognizance OF
Colonel Mann taken before Judge Blod-
gett, of Chicago in the sum of $4,000,
also the recognizance of General Bah
cock for $1,000, both of which were flied.
d. W. Voorhees, then moved the cases
of William Mex ee and Constantine Ma
guire, under indictments found by the
grand jury at the May term, and which
were set for Wednesday, be certified up
to tho United States Circuit Court ut the
January term, to follow the course OF the
indictments found against those gentle.
men by a jury of the November term
just adjourned A report having gained
circulation that new evidence of an
important character, duplicating
parties not heretofore named having
been discovered another grand jury
would be empanncled, the District At
torney denied the report and stated that
no grand jury will be empanncIed until
next May.
A special venue for 20 additional petit

The Democracy Understands and Up
prccfRtcs its Responsibility.

WASHINGTON. December l3.-The
Democratic members of the House met
in caucus this afternoon in the hall OF
tho House OF Representatives, Mr.. Lamar
in the chair, Messrs. Banning and Rub.
bins acting ms srcretary's. Mr.. Waddcll
offered n resolution for the appointment
by the chairman of the Democratic Exc
cutlvc Committee, tn consist of three
Senators and three Representatives and
three citizens of the District of Columbia,
and Mr.. Cox offered resolution pro-
vding for the appointment by the Chair
man ot the COMMITTEE, of eleven mem
bers, and to suggest 10 the caucus at
future meetings such line of policy or
action ms public measures as would best
serve the interests of the country.
These resolutions were, after debate
agreed to.
During the incidental discussion there
was a harmony of views with regard to
the duty of the majority of the House.
All agreed that they should. as tar as
possible, effect a reduction of taxation,
and that the Government should be
honestly and economically administered,
and that much responsibility devolvcd
on the majority of the House although
the Senate was not politically, in accord
with them. The country desired the
stoppaCe OF corruption and wasteful ex-
penditures, and the Democracy could not
expect the people to stand by them un
less they stood by the people.
No business, apart from that above
mentioned, was considered.

Of wool, though in small lots compare
tIvely, AS the manufactures do not pur-
chase much ahead While prices are
very firm, there is no advance, as buyers
are asking for reduction, but choice fleece
wools are held more and more firmly,
and those who want them must pay
the price. Receipts of California
have come IN very fairly this week, and
about all that is to come this season is
here or is on its way, while it has been
taken about as fast as it arrived. The
amount on hand, considering the guam
tity shipped, is as nothing compared with
stocks of former years ut same time.
There has been steady, fair demand for
fleece woods this week, with very little
change in prices. We quote: Picklock

The $4,000 Race.

SAN Francisco, December l3.-The
members of the Pacific Jockey Club say
the statements in the TirJ, Fjetd ana
Farm and other Eastern papers relative
to the $4,000 race, is entirely unwar-
ranted and do great injustice to the club
and owners OF horses. The latter are
satisfied with the action of the club. 1t
is now considered reasonably certain that
the race will come off Christmas, weather
permitting. The horses are reported in
good condition, except Wild Idle and
Trinstead. The former will not run.
Foster is coming from Oregon to take
his place Trinstead, no doubt, will be
all right in time for the race Probably
not less than six horses will start.
