The pemoera.ie Programme.

Washington, May PA special to
the Bulletin says: The house members
of the joint democratic caucus commit
tee met this afternoon and unanimously
agreed on the following line of policy
which will be brought up tomorrow be-
fore the joint committee. They pro-
pose to send to the president rs a first
bill, the test oath, which will be signed
as separate measure; next they will
send in as separate bills, one repeating
the use of troops at the polls, and an
other repeating the supervisors law.
These will both be vetoed. Then they
will pass joint resolution extending
the Appropriation for the army till De-
cember, coupled with the proviso that
no troops shall be used at elections, and
also for legislative purposes, on condi-
tion that the supervisors do not act Ii
they are vetoed, they propose to adjourn,
and if again convened by the president,
to repeat the programme. Beyond this
all is chaos

The Arkansaw Excitement.

Little Rock, Ark, May 27.-Trust-
worthy advices from the silver mining
region in Montgomery county, near
the Hot Springs, are to the effect that
rich ore has been discovered near the
surface, in many places covering an
area of several miles. California, Ne
vada and Colorado miners now there,
concur in saying that the prospect Is
good. AS yet there is no satisfactory
evidence of the discovery of a true Hs-
sure.
A stamping mill has been ordered
and will soon be expected.
Diamond Joe Reynolds, of Chica-
go, sunk Il shaft one hundred and
eighteen feet and stopped operations
after eXpending $4,000 last season,
from want of cooperation by other
claimants. Some specimens taken
from several of the mines are very rich.
The question is as to the quantity to be
found.
Prospectors are very sanguine, but
have yet to realize their hopes.
A great many claims are staked off
and there is heavy rush to the region,
which is about twenty miles west of
the Hot Springs.

The Presbytery Adjourned

Saratoga, May 27.-In the Presby-
terian assembly this morning the dis
cussion continued on the question OF
re affirming the deliverance Of the as
sembly of seventy-hve upon the validity
of the Catholic baptism. They event
ually adopted resolution as follows:
That this assembly, in full accordance
with the words of our confession of
the faith respecting the church at
Rome and its so-called spiritual, do
now re-afflrm the deliverance upon this
subject of the assembly of 1885, as ap-
plying to the Romish hierarchy, headed
by the pope, falsely claiming to be the
church. which is opposed absolutely
and irreconcilably to doctrines of the
holy scripture, is corrupting and de-
grading large part of Christ's church
over which it has usurped supreme con-
troll.
After adopting the usual compllmen-
tary resolutions they adjourned.

The Cabinet Meeting

Washington, May 27.-At the cabi-
net meeting to-day, the attorney gen.
eral gave an opinion in regard to the
Eads jetties, to the effect that Capt.
Eads is entitled to'the payment of $780,
900, claimed to be due under his con-
tract. Although the work is slightly
imperfect, he has ordered the payment
made.
The same officer also submitted an
opinion in the case of P. n. Coleman,
a citizen of Tennessee, who was tried
for murder by court martial during the
war and sentenced to be executed. He
was subsequently taken out of the
hands of the military and tried by
state courts, and again sentenced to be
executed, but ON appeal to the United
States supreme court, the action of the
courts was set aside. The attorney
general holds that the sentence of the
court martial was not affected by the
decision of the supreme court, and can
be carried into execution, but, in view
of the circumstances and times when
the crime was committed, and the lapse
Of time since its commission, he re-
commends that the president commute
the sentence to Imprisonment for life.

Those Ruckeye Nominations.

Chic igo, May 27.--Much speculation
is being INDUCED in by correspondents
and politicians concerning the result of
the Ohio republican convention to-mor-
row. As the democrats are likely to
nominate Thurman the republicans
incline more and more to put up Sher-
man. 1t is stated that there is no
doubt but that Thurman will accept if
nominated.
The Journals Washington special
says: More than ordinary interest is
manifested here in the Ohio republican
convention ON account of the position
taken by the president in favor of the
nomination of ex-Representative Fos-
ter for governor, as against Judge Taft.
The friends of the latter say they have
advices to-day which indicate quite
conclusively that he will defeat Foster
and receive the nomination. Nearly
all the republican members in congress
from Ohio have gone to Cincinnati to
attend the convention. Senator Thur
man and the democratic representa-
tives evlnce much anxiety about the
action of the convention.

order.

Riverton, KY, May 27.-The Under
wood war has again broken out. On
upper Tygart's creek, in Center county,
Elva Underwood, while peacefully at
work in a corn field near his house, was
shot from an ambush on Thursday, and
when his children hastened to him they
found him in dying condition, with
his chest perforated by two balls. Geo.
Underwood, Elva's father, was also
killed in u similar manner, and Jesse
has entered the field rs the avenger of
his family wrongs. 1t is feared there
will be fearful amount of blood shed,
and the farmers in that neighborhood
are afraid of becoming the victims of
some assassin's ball, and are forsaking
their fields. TroHble is again reported
in Breathitt county, with one murder.

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS
HOUSE AFTERNOON SESSION.

HoUSE- SESSION
Washington, May 27.--The morning
hour expired and no action was taken
on the bill relative to the removal of
cases from state to federal courts.
The house then proceeded to the con-
sideration of the bill to prevent the in
PRODUCTION of contagious diseases into
the United States, the senate bill in
relation to that subject having been
substituted for the house bill.
Conger advocated the bill, which if
it meant anything meant that the fed
eral government had absolute author
ity over states. If state rights could
interfere with the exercise of the ON
nipotent power Of congress to defend
the people, let them come. Let state
rights men pass this bill, and they
would have passed rubicon. Let them
pass this bill which the scourge of pes
thence compelled them to pass, for in
no other way could they shut out the
scourge of pestilence from the land,
and they would have overstepped all
their finely drawn distinctions. The
friends of state rights dare not make
that question paramount when the
lives of thousands of their fellow citi-
zens quiver in the balance. He had
looked in vain the past two years for
southern state rights democrat who
didn't believe in the annual appropria-
tion of three hundred thousand dollars
for the Big Kanawha and a quarter of
a million for the Little Kanawha.
Gradually his state right friends were
slipping from the moorings. What
foghorn would recall them from the
unknown seas. His own was insult
cient. (Laughter.)
At the close of Conger's speech,
Young moved the previous question,
which was seconded, the bill pass
en-, and it now goes to the president.
Garfield and others having asked
leave of absence, Reagan objected to
granting it except in case of sickness.
Adjourned.

Something About Whisky.

Washington, May 27.-The senate
finance committee to-day resumed the
consideration of Voorhees, bill making
allowances for the losses of spirits by
leakage or unavoidable accidents dur
ing their transportation from distillery
warehouses for expectation. Secretary
Sherman opposed the bill on the ground
that Its enactment would tend to in
duce carelessness on the part of man.
ufactures and shippers, and result in
allowances to the amount that would
appreciably diminish the government
revenue. The secretary also contended
that the existing law works well and
affords American manufacturers of
alcohol, whisky, rum, etc, ample pro-
lection against foreign competition.

Additional Treaty Points.

Simla, Africa, May 27.-The princi-
pal points of the Anglo-Afghanistan
treaty have already been known. In
addition TO these, the treaty provides
that henceforth there shall be peace
and friendship between the contesting
parties, and that the British sympa-
thizers in Afghanistan shall be am
nestled. The ameer shall be supported
against foreign aggression; that the
British resident at Cabul shall be pro-
vided with proper escort; that he shall
have power to depute British agents
to the Afghan frontier on special occa-
sions, and that the ameer shall be per-
mitted to send agents to India. A tele-
graph line to Cabul will be established.
Commercial affairs will form the sub
ject of separate convention, to be
concluded for one year.

Prices of INDIAN Supplies.

Washington, May 27.-Commissione
Hayt, of the Indian bureau, has re-
turned from New York. The annual
purchases of Indian goods have been
completed, and considerable portion
shipped to the agencies. Prices this
year have been remarkably low, and
purchases eminently satisfactory to the
department. Contracts for transporta-
tion have been made at unprecedentedly
low rates, and it is believed with re-
sponsible parties. The chief of bureau
statistics, in his tenth monthly state
ment for the current fiscal year of i'm
ports and exports of the United States,
says the excess of the exports over the
imports of merchandise was, for the
ten months ended April Both, 1879, 24l,-

locks, while stating that the level
canal course proposed by Lieut.. Wyse
