LATEST TELEGRAMS.
FORTY-sEVENTH CONGRESS.
EXTRA SESSION.
SENATE.

Washington, 30.-Floral tributes
were observed on the desks of KEEL
logg and Hill. Hills was from
ladies Of Alexandria, with a note
saying it was a feeble testimonial
of their admiration for the brilliant
manner in which he had recently
exposed the corrupt bargain made
by Malone with the republican
party. He had anchored himself In
the hearts of Virginians everywhere
by his timely and eloquent speech in
defense of honor, in the preservation
of the traditions and the mainte-
nance of the former illustrious his
tory of Virginia, when he sheathed
his sword on her own senators,
which had been treacherously
pointed to pierce her fair form.
A resolution was adopted to pay
the funeral expense of Senator Car
penter.
The Senate, % to %, refused to go
into executive session.
Harris said it was evident the
republicans did not intend to trans
act the business which the Senate
had been called to transact. He
moved to adjourn to-day, sine dte.
Rejected, % to %.
Pendleton, recalling the Presidents
inaugural statement, that he would
askC OngreSstof fix the tenure of minor
officers of government in order that
the Senate might no longer present
the spectacle of wrangling over
petit officers, moved an execution
session
Hill read an address, issued by Ma
hone, last October, calling the re-
publican party the gripSack party.
Dawes asked if Hill had objec-
lions to Riddlberger, because he had
voted for Hancock.
Hill-"None in the world" but
what was the gripsack party?
Dawes said Hill should know,
as he had tried every party
and every phase of political
life. He remembered that Hill
had written a letter after
Garfield's party and inviting the
public to come up and join the party
which had seeded. OaUghter)
That seems to be the first idea in
Hills mind in all his political
career, to find what party secedes
and then join. 1 think he said no
body could tell how much he loved
Garfeld-passing love of women.
| Naughter.)
Hill stood by his letter, and again
denounced the contemplate alliance
between the republicans and read
juSters to get offices.
In the midst of the controversy,
which was kept up at some length,
Logan entered upon a discussion,
induced to do so by a remark of Hill
that the republicans would not let
the war rest in peace. We are told,
time and time again, he said, by the
senators from that side, that
the war is past, and do
not want to allude to 1t;
yet every time an opportunity
offers he digs it up.
A lively spat followed between
Hill and Logan, in which the
former indirectly insisted that Lo-
gan had sympathized with the Sc
cessionistS.
Adjourned.

The BONANZA suit.

San Francisco, S0.-The decision
of Judge Sullivan in the bonanzs
case has been the general topic OF
conversation on the streets this
afternoon. The plaintiff and those
interested on his side of the ques-
ton in this and other suits, expect
great satisfaction and hold that
although the recovery of a larger
portion of the amount at issue in
this suit, something over 100000
is held by decision to be barred by
the statute of limitations, the prin-
ciple for which they contended is
fully established. They claim that
in the suit to recover the value Of
tailings to the amount of S26,0O0,-
600 which is set for May, the stat
ute of limitations will be inopera-
tive and that a decision in their
favor is almost a fOregOne cOnclu-
sion, as the case is much stronger
than the one to-day decided. The
case will probably be taken to the
Supreme Court on appeal.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1881-03-31
Important Decision for on
Gers,

Washington, S0.-A decision was
rendered by the Supreme Court of
the United States, to-day, in a case
which has a good deal of import
ance for officers of the army and
navy, and which settles the question
of the right of the President, by and
with the consent of the Senate, to
dismiss army or navy officers from
the service without court martial.
Charles NJ. Blake was, in 1868, post
chaplin at Camp Mcdowell, Ari-
IONA, and forwarded to the Presi-
dent, during temporary unitness,
what was construed as a
resignation. The resignation was
accepted, and shortly there
after Alex. Gilmore, nominated
and confirmed as Blake's successor.
In 1878 President Hayes, upon recon
sideration of the circumstances of
Blake's resignation, set aside its ac-
ceptance and restored him to
services, whereupon the latter
brought suit for back pay. The con-
clusion of the court is that what
ever view may be taken of Blake's
resignation, and the appointment
and confirmation of another man in
his place, it had the effect of dis
charging him from the service.
On Gilmore's appointment, he super
ceded Blake, VINO was discharged
from the service without any refer
ence to the latter's mental capacity
to understand what-was a resigna-
ton. Blake could not, thereafter,
have been restored to the service
without new nomination and con-
firmatiOn.

1t HAS not infrequenily besn sug-
gested that greater attention be paid
hereaboUts to tree culture. We do
not particularly mean the culture OF
fruit trees, for the immediate profit
and pleasure in that industry have
already induced the planting and
growing of innunersble orchards all
over the territory. Trees for timber
could be grown here with good sue
cess. TIE banks OF water bitches
and irrigation canals might all be
utilized for the growth oftimbei trees,
without in the lesst detFactipg from
the other legitimate uses OF those
conduits; indeed, the trees would
prove q positive benefit to them. Sup
pose the bsnks of the Salt Lake and
Jordan Canal we're planted with trees
OF some Of the quick. growing varie-
ties; the water supply would lot be
lessened, Lo harm could be done to
the sides, and in the course OF a few
years the timber would bring small
fortune. The idea is worth consider
ing at least, especially in country
where everything in the way OF tim
Der, except of the toughest kind, lie
brought from 500 to 5000 miles.

The Assassination Inwardness

st. Petersburg, 30.-Public curios-
ity centres in the female prisoner
Sophie Pieoffsky, whose close con-
nections in social positions and
whose superior education excite
general wonder. She is the daughter
of a former provincial governor and
niece of an officer of high rank in
the army. According to the con-
LESSONS Of Pieoffsky and Jelahoff,
they alone knew of the attempt to
be made on the Cars life and the
time and place. Their fellow con-
spirators In London and else
where knew, in a general way,
that another attempt would be
made. Roussakoff was only in
formed of what was required
of him on the day of the murder.
Jelahoff, chief director in the mat
ter, having been arrested two days
before, PieoffSky became the guild
ing spirit, and sent Roussakoff and
the other murderers with bombs to
the stations assigned them. Roussa-
kOff protests that he was not in any
admitted to the council Of the con-
spirators, but was merely fellow
worker. He asserts that the nihilists
latterly have had no money and that
there was considerable disagree
ment among them, and they
would probably have dispersed
had their last attempt failed.
Roussakoff seems to be nihilist,
pure and simple, having no project
or desire beyond the destruction of
the present order of things. Pieoff-
sky and Jelahoff ayow that the OBJ
ject of their operations was to ter
rorize the country, disarrange the
machinery of government and
bring about, if possible, a sociallstlc
republic after the pattern of the
Paris commune. The other two
prisoners, Mischeeloff and the
woman Helfmann, seem to be less
important. Both refuse to answer
the charges made against them.
