WASHINGTON, June ll.-Nineteen Dem
ocrats to-day declared by their votes
against the army bill that It was sur
render. Twelve Republicans voted with
them because they were not satisfied that
the bill did not hamper the President in
executing the national election laws. Be
fore the bill was taken up the Democrats
at the suggestion Of Frye, surrendered the
bill which they have pushed so steadily
in the morning hours for some weeks
past, to prevent the government from pro
tecting its officers in its own courts. The
Democrats agreed to let it go over until
December.
Joe Johntson moved against that section
OF the bill which prohibited promotions,
and his demonstration was so strong that
Clymer, who was managing the bill, con.
sented to striking out the entire section
without the action Of the House. The Re.
publicans hold, generally, in regard to the
army bill as finally passed, that it contains
no restriction not already in the law, and
that, in fact, the Democrats have aban-
doned everything for which they were
really fighting, and that the rider attached
to this bill is merely form OF words to
cover their retreat. The signing OF this
bill is regarded as sure.
There is difference OF opinion concern
ing the judicial bill. II the President
finds that 1t hampers him in any degree
in executing the laws under title 2G he
will not sign it. The Democrats to-day
admitted that 1t did not interfere with ex-
listing laws by which Supervisors can be
appointed and paid. The Republicans
hold that Deputy Marshals can be appoint
ed, but that the present bill will prevent
them from receiving pay. This feature Of
the measure will receive the full attention
OF the Presidents and the Attorney General
will examine it closely.

TlIR GREAT GERMAN JUnILEE.
The Progress OF the Cincinnati saenger
fest-Last EVening'S Concert.

CINCINNATI, June l2.-The streets this
morning have resumed their wonted ap'
pearance as far as crowding moving null
titude is concerned. but the vast throng
Of yesterday (still in the city, seem to
have taken themselves to the hilltops and
parks, where balloon ascensions, picnics
and concerts are the order Of the day.
Tonight has been gala one for the
saengerfest both In the quality OF the
singing and the attendance. Fully four
thousand people were seated before the
opening Of the concert, and the total
attendance will probably number some
hundreds more. Tho chorus seats were
packed solidly by the male singers, and
they presented quite a contrast In their
absence oil color when compared with the
bright costumes OF the lady singers Of last
evening. Prof. Carl Barus was director
for the evening.
The concert opened with the German

Ferdinand MoChring previous 10 the break.
ing out Of the Franco. .Prussinn war, and
was inspired by the interview between the
then King ot Prussia and the French En-
voy Bendetti at Ems. Mr.. Remmertz sus.
tanned the solo admirably, and the chorus
was exceedingly promptin its movements.
The second number Of the programme,
an aria, "Ah PerfidO," was sung by Emma
Hickle, Of this city. This was followed
by chorus for male voices, "Take Wing,
My Song" sang without orchestral &C.
compartment, and was delivered In fine
style. Miss Helen Balatka, Of Chicago,
drew rounds Of hravos, and fairly received
an ovation after singing an aria from the
Magic Flute, and the applause con-
tinued until she repeated it. "God, Fa.
therland and Love-" serious but beau.
tilul composition, by TschirCh, was finely
given by the full chorus OF male
voices, and was followed by Mr.. Whitney
with solo "Honor and Arms" which
won an encore. The closing number OF
the first part OF the concert was Easter
Morning" Madame Alveslehen sustaining
the solo, supported by the full orchestra,
chorus. and the great organ. In this
Madame Alvesleben achieved her
greatest triumph thus far during the
fest, and sang with great expression and
magnificent effect. At its close half the
vast audience, besides the chorus, was on
its feet cheering and shouting an encore.
The concert closed with Paradise Lost.
There was evidently greater sympathy
between the singers, orchestra and audi
ence tonight, than at any previous con.
cert, and this, no doubt, had its effect on
the execution of the music on the pro.
gramme.

His Views on the Subject OF Demo.
cratic Candidate for the Presidency.
New YoRE, June ll.-Wade Hampton,
now in this city, saysin a political inter.
view tonight:
"Wed do not intend to ask place upon
the Presidential ticket fora Southern man.
We want the party in the North to place
two good men on the ticket and we will sup.
port 1t for national success Of the Demo.
cratic party. With reference to the per.
sonal choice Of the South for particular
Presidential candidates, do not think the
South has made any. believe that there
has been feeling that, in justice to the
old ticket, it should be renominated. There
are many reasons, however, which may
be urged against this, and the refusal Of
Hendricks TO be put in nomination again
seems to render it impossible. don't
think the South cares a copper who the
next Presidential candidate may be, rs
longas he is strong national man They
do not care where he comes from, or what
his financial views may be-.
