RIVER MEMORIAL.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 14,-The committee ap-
pointed by Mark P. Dunncl, President OF
the river convention, recently held in this
city, and charged with the preparation OF
a memorial to Congress on the subject OF
river Improvement, met in the Merchants
Exchange reading room this morning,
nearly all the members being present. Elk.
Governor Stannard, of st, Louis, chair
man, presented a1engthy and somewhat ell
aborate memorial, drawn up by the St.Louis
members of the committee. After long
discussion, during which the whole ground
of river improvement was gone over, the
memorial was adopted and will be sent to
all members of Congress.
The memorial discusses the question OF
cheap transportation and shows its bene-
fits, and says that more than 800, ,000, ,O0O
have been given to artificial highways,
while not a quarter of that amount
has been given TO the river. Floods
in the lower valley have again and
again destroyed more than the whole
amount given the river by Congress.
Congress is not challenged for being SO
liberal to artificial highways, as rail
roads have largely built up and
developed the country through which
they pass, but more aid should be given
to the river. Figures are given showing
that with the improvement of tie mouth
of the river the export trade iH grain OF
St. Louis alone was more than doubled II
one year. and the same effects would re-
suit to the whole valley with the perma
nent improvement of the channel of the
Mississippi. Congress is thanked for it:
river commission and is urged to go on in
the good work and appropriate yearly the
sums recommended by the commission, anc
give it all the power and authority to carry
out the objects for which it was appoint
ed The propriety of recommending ap
preparations for improving the upper Mis-
sissippi in dry seasons by the reservoir sys
tenn and the special mention of the Ohi6
river in the memorial, was freely discussed
1t was decided to let the memorial stand a!
originally framed, and it was unanimously
adopted in that shape. President Stan
nard was directed by the meeting to ap
point commit tee to take the memorial tt
Washington 1t was also directed that th'
memorial be hriefed and sent to variou
produce exchanges and cities and towns il
the valley for signatures. Copies of tn
memorial will be sent to absent member
Of the committee for signature. 1t wa
announced that Mr.. Walker, of Minneapo
lis, will commence the publication on Jan
Is of weekly paper, to be called 9TH

eSts.

GARFIELD MONUMENT.

CLEVELAND, Dec. 14.-The following
statement is made in answer to many in
quiries. The Garfield monument fund
committee desire to raise S250,000 for the
purpose of erecting an appropriate monu
ment at the late Presidents grave. Ofthis
amount over $51, 900 has already been SUBJ
scribed bJ the city of Cleveland. The
State of Ohio, including Cleveland. will
raise not less than 100000, and $4,000
has been raised by small voluntary sub
scriptions In different parts of the country
and forwarded to the committee. Thus
one half of the desired amount is practi-
cally secured, leaving only $125,00 to be
raised outside of Ohio. In order to carry
out the plans OF the committee and raise
over the remains of Garfield one of the finest
works of art in the civilized world, when
sufficient funds have been subscribed, it is
the purpose of the committee to have a
monument association incorporated under
Ohio laws. The design of the monument
viii be determined and erection directed
bv this association, which will be composed
of the representative men of the country
It IS hoped and believed that the addition
al amount required can be easily raised Sc
that the association may be incorporated
md all necessary arrangements made fol
ha rinning work early in the coming yea.

al executive departments. After discus
sion of the best means of conducting the
investigation, it was fully delegated to
Senators Allison, Logan, Hale, Davis, of
West Virginia, and Cocaerill as a sub
committee. They began their labor imme-
diately.
Acting Postmaster General Hatton au-
thorizes a ruling that no supplement con-
tanning any advertisements whatever, can
be allowed in the mails at second class
rates, unless the publisher makes affidavit
that the same rates are paid on the adver-
tisement in the supplement as for those in
| the body of the paper itself
The committee of both houses on mem
orial service in honor to President Gar
field are in joint session to fix the day and
hour of services il the Capitol. Conger
and Brown have been added to the conn.,
mittee. eGt
1t was reported here this afternoon that
Senator Paddock. of Nebraska, had been
selected for First Assistant Secretary, vice
Upton, resigned, but the report was untrue.
The Nebraska republicans urged Paddock
for the place but Secretary Folger replied
he wanted man that he knew well. Fol-
ger wanted to appoint New York man,
but some of his friends advise against it
on the ground that New York has patron
age enough, but Folger is decided ana VIII
probably take a man from his own state.
The President said to senators who urged
the appointment that he does not get time
to think; that he is kept talking about
appointments and filing offices twenty
hours out of twenty y-four and can't get
time to consider anything.
The Senate and House Committees on
the death of President Garfield had a joint
session to-day and considered the proposed
memorial service. The matter was very
generally discussed and finally referred to
sub committee of which Representative
Mckinley is chairman, with instructions to
report to the joint committee as soon as
possible. General preference was expressed
that some distinguished orator be invited
to deliver eulogy and that two Senators
and two Representatives be selected to fol-
low the orator with brief remarks. The
services will begin and close with prayer
and be held in the House of Representative
in January.

recommend the pas sage of Sherman's three
per cent funding bill with amendments re-
ducing the aggregate amount of three per

million, provided the amount of deposit to
be received shall not exceed at any one
time twenty five million dollars. The com

Folger. who expressed himself in oppo-
sition to the proposition, preferring to re-
tain the governments privilege of calling
in the three and one half per cent bonds,

SCOyILLE LECTURES.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 14.-Geo. Scoville, |
hrother-in-law OF Guiteau, 1ectured tonight
on the Guiteau case. Though large num-
her of tickets were sold the audience was
small, but heartily appiauded the lecturer:
ScovilIe introductorily stated that he had
not the least intention Of rejecting Oh the
court or endeavoring to affect that case IN
any way It was to public opinion that
| he desired to address himself, without en-
,1eavoripe TO extenuate the crime or create
feeling in favor of the prisoner. he
complained that the press had no dispo
eition to give that force and consideration
to the defense which had been interposed
that ought to be given. Not only the
press but the pulpit had prejudged the
| case. The pulpit condemned Guiteau on
the assumption that he was sane man,
/ and vet not single minister had called
on the prisoner and not single letter nad
been sent by them to him as d sane man,
/ calling on him to repent and turn TO doo
! (applause) Nineteen-twentieths OF the
{ letters received by Guiteau were simple
I threats against his life, and not more than
| two or three bears a Christian spirit. He
/ criticized the action of Judge Davis in re-
cert marder case in New York for going out
SD 1sne case and instructing the jury In
the Guiteau case and giving as law what
s. Tr.(ipe ss!ox would not give, if he (Scoville)
= ERE not mistaken (Applause.) The
s, eaker said lie had good reason to believe

1t was not for the life of this man h gave
it, but because he wanted to see order ore
vail and because he didn't want the Anne u
can people disgraced by having a man on
trial for his life assassinated like deg.
The lecturer declared that the greatest
peril to the prisoner was in the passage
from the court room to the prison van
and pointed out the danger that some
desperate man would stab the prisoner
with a dirk and escape without detec
tion- 1t was not the prisoner alone who
was on trial. for, he predicted, should Gui-
teau be hanged and post mortem exam
nation prove him to be insane, it would
be almost the last case of capital punish
ment in the country. At the conclusion
Scoville was applauded and a resolution
adopted expressing sympathy with the
family of the prisoner and complimenting
Scoville upon the management of the
case
