cratic members of the senate and house
held a joint caucus in the hall Of the
house this afternoon, to receive the re-
port of the joint advisory committees
on the subject of the judicial bill. E2-
traordinary precautions were taken to
guard against the possibility of caves.
dropping, it apparently being supposed
by some of the officers of the caucus
that the representatives of the press
had obtained their accurate reports Of
the previous caucuses through key
holes, transoms, ventilators, pipes OF
similar avenues of communication with
the outer world.
Senator Herman presented and ex-
planned the committees report. AS
foreshadowed yesterday the advisory
committee this morning decided to re-
commend the passage by congress of
two bills in lieu of the judicial appro-
priation bill that has just been vetoed,
but distributing its provisions in such
a manner as to concentrate in one
measure all those to which the president
made objections.

the doctor knocked Finke down twice.
Last evening young man, stranger,
came for the doctor to visit Mrs. Ber-
nard- The doctor got in the wagon
and started. A mile from town he
overlook two footmen, who asked to
ride. After going about mile further
the three made deadly assault on the
doctor, pounded him terribly and left
him for dead in the woods. After they
drove away the doctor managed to get
to the house, half a mile away, where
the wounds were dressed. He was
brought home to-day.
The officers arrested John Brauer and
Fred Finke, jr., and brought them be-
fore their victim, who feebly identified
them as two of the persons who at
tackled him. The prisoners were bound
over in 50, 500 each. The doctor is in
critical condition, but the skull is
unbroken. When the prisoners were
brought in quite disposition to lynch

Bismarck Triumphs.

Berlin, June 25.-The German reich
stag by a large majority, has approved
of the governments proposals in regard
to the duty on oil, grease, lard, soap
and perfumery.

prospect of Bismarck realizing his wish
for speedy increase of the revenue.

Going for the Police.

New York, June 25.-The World to-
day utters almost the universal senti-
ment here, in which the press is all but
unanimous, as follows: The most i'm
portant reflection for New Workers, in
connection with the confession of the
murderer Of Mrs. Hull, clearly is, that
the police of New York have done alb
solutely nothing towards securing his
detection, his arrest or his avowal.

Chicago, June 25.-The Times this
morning has the following on the races
for to-day: The Garden City cup
prizes will be the most interesting race
ever run in America. This is the opin-
ion of some of the most experienced
turfmen in attendance upon the meet
ing. Indeed, it could hardly be other
wise since twelve of the most celebrat-
ed horses in the country come to the
post, and they all have histories made
at other points, full of interest.
The public favorite is James A.
Grimstead's feet and game mare Janet
who, as race horse, is thought to have
no superior in Kentucky. She is re-
garded as exceedingly fleet as well
as being slayer. She is the favorite
in betting, but she will find strong op-
position in Baldwin's celebrated Molly
Mccarthy, the great California crack,
who is conceded to be one of the best
mares ever bred in America.
Then comes Charley Howard from
Louisiana, an own brother to the great
Harry Bassett, and frst-class race
horse. He is one of the last sons of the
great Lexington now upon the turf, and
is most worthy representative of a
worthy sire.
Another of the starters is Henry
Schwartz California horse Lottery,
who has made the fastest two mile heat
ever run in the world by a three year
old, and is horse of great speed and
bottom.
California is also represented by
Baldwin's Clara D, who comes east
heralied as the best three year old flly
in California last season.
Kentucky is also represented by Dave
Moore's remarkably fleet son. Of the
renowned Longfellow. He is the win
ner of a strong reputation, and has as
much backing as possible.

Shot At.

A certain person in this city was a
little hasty Monday night when he
went to residence on Sixteenth street
and sought to effect an entrance to the
house, whether the occupants were
willing or not. His rude act was the
cause of the sharp report of that pistol
shot which was heard by many of our
citizens about IL O'Clock at night.
From the hasty and undignified retreat
which the intruder made, it is judged
by those who saw him that he will not
be liable to repeat his rude act very
soon.
