WASHINGTON. April l7.-Telegrams have
been sent by the chairman OF the Caucus
Committee, to all Republican absentees to
be in their seats by the middle of the pres
ent week. 1t is expected on Wednesday or
Thursday to call up the contested election
case of Lynch against Chalmers. The Com
mittee of Elections have reported resolu
tion that Lynch is entitled to the seat now
held by Chalmers. The Republicans anti
cipate that the Democrats will fhbuster to
prevent Lynch being seated; hence the
necessity of the Republicans having quo
rum of their own members.

DR.. LAMSoN'S CASE.
what il Said oft on the Other Side.

IONpON. April 1.-THE news of the re-
spite was communicated to DR.. LamsOn,
yesterday. The daily Telegraph says: What
has not been shown, and must be shown, If
the convict is to be reprievad is that he
was irresponsible when he plotted and car
ried out the horrid murder"
The Standard Says the present respite
must be regarded simply as a further act OF
courtesy towards the United States.
The solicitor OF Dr. LamsOn has made at
idavitS that the prisoners relatives in
formed him. prior to the trial. that Lam
sons mind had been DESTROYED by morphia.
The line of defense. he says. however, was
not adopted at the trial because the prison
erS counsel were miSled by the statements
of Medical experts and il was decided that
the actual defense was good and sufficient,
without touching upon the mental condi-
tion of the prisoner.
The friends Of DR.. LamsOn are not with
out hope that the prisoner may escape the
death penalty despite the statements in
the HarCourt letter.
DIR. I-amsOn again ResPitei-
LONDON. April T.-Lamson has been
granted further respite until the 2Sth
inst. The Secretary of State for the Home
Department has addressed the following
letter TO the High Sheriff OF Surrey:
white HALL, April I6.-SIE: The Minis.
ter of the United States having communi-
Gated TO the Secretary of State the earnest
wish Of the President that the respite
granted TO convict George Henry Lamsom
should be further extended in order to give
time for the consideration of certain docu-
ments, portion of which are now on their
way from America, | am to SIGNIFY to YOU
the Queens commands that the execution
of the sentence of death passed upon said
Lamson be further respited until Friday,
the 2Sth inst. You will, at the same time,
see that the prisoner is informed of this ex-
tension of the present respite. Take care
clearly to explain to him that no further
respite will be granted, and that no evil
dence which has hitherto been submitted
to the Secretary of State, either from Eng
land or America affords any justification
for advising any interference with the SEN
tence of the law.

struct the navy. In other words q number
of Democrats who have been disposed to
favor spending more money for the navy
now say that if Chandler is to be the man
to spend the money the appropriations will
not only be made without the aid OF their
votes, bat also will have to be made in spite
of their opposition. A good many members
do not object to the expenditure of fair
amount of money in reconstructing the
navy. and, in fact, think it ought to be
done, but when it comes to permitting
Chandler, the notorious lobbyist OF unsav-
ory reputation, to disburse the money
different light i, put upon it. L.

BURTON, W. Va, April IA break in
the arch OF the Doe Gully Tunnel, near
this place, yesterday, which is being wild
ened for double track, precipitated nine
men and great mass of rock, brick and
dirt upon the track beneath, distance OF
thirty or forty feet, completely covering
them with earth and debris. 1t was thought
at first that many of the men must be
killed, and ready hands were soon at work
rescuing their unfortunate fellow work.

OF the party who fell all were more or

we're Manuel Obersoll, of Hancock, Nd,
badly cut and bruised about the head and
shoulders; John OBrian, arm and ribs
broken and otherwise injured; 7. Nilaus,
of Rowlsburg, bruised; John Igo. Of Clarks-
burg, back slightly hurt and head cut and
bruised. The balance were all more or less
injured.
A special train was dispatched from Cum.
berland with doctors. etc, who arrived
promptly and done all that could be done.
Had the break occurred a moment sooner
it would have fallen on moving train,
and no doubt killed them all. AS sitwas, it
was very fortunate. The track was blocked
but for short time, and trains are now
passing. y.

Special Dispatch TO the Register.
WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE Senate took
Up the bill for the improvement OF the
Mississippi river, and the week will proba-
bly be devoted 10 the consideration OF the
subject. Powerful influence has been
brought to bear on Congress to give the
necessary aid for the stricken section, and
hardly day passes that petitions for relief
are not received rom the overfowed dis
trict. The recommendations of the Mis-
sissippi River Commission will undouot-
edly be adopted, but the contest will come
on the proposition for repairing and re-
building levecs. Senator kellogg has
charge Of the matter in the Senate, while
on the House side MessrS. King and Rob-
ertson have shown the most activity IN Tor
wardmg the work. 4 number OF bills each
appropriating a different amount, have
been introduced since the last overflow,
but it is generally conceded that the one
which has the best chance for becoming
law is that in which about seven millions
OF dollars are appropriated, one million OF
which is for the MiSSuri river. u.
