boating ON the Potomac,
THE CLUBS GETTING READY FOR THE OCTOBER RE

THE CLUBS GETTING READY FOR THE OCTOBER RE-
GATTA-
Pleasure-rowing up the Potomac has almost
entirely ceased for this season, but every after
noon the river is fairly alive with shells. All the
boat clubs are working hard for the coming re-
gatta-
THE ANAIOsTANs
have been somewhat backward. A great many Of
their members have been out of town, and they
have been unfortunate I'm losing the services OF
several OF their best men. 1t is hardly posi-
BILE that they will be able to put forward three
crews at the day OF the races. They have not en-
gagged trainer, but VIII make every effort to
nave at least one good crew TO represent them
anu nave ordered a new paper shell from Waters
for it. 1t is probable that PairO Douglass, Nc
Kenny and Marshall Will OCCUPY the sc ITS In this
boat, unless some of the new members should
snow up unusually we'll. IL is understood that the
AnaloStanS may not enter for the senior race, but
VIII put this crew in the junior race and make
sure OF one out OF the three.
THE PoToMACs
have been very active for several weeks past.
Taylor, their trainer, has made several changes In
the crews as they were originally selected. The
seniors are now rowing Baldwin, stroke, Zap
pone 3, Wheatley and Wheeler bow. The senior
she'll from Waters has arrived and gives great sat-
isfactiop. The junior crew rowing at present con-
s1StS OF Johns ton stroke Appleton g. Keryand aud
a change man bow. 1t is possible that Carpenter
Will occupy the bow seat. Taylor has not made I'D
his light weight crew yet, but he has selected
cftd men and viii attend to them when he can
spare time from the other two crews.
THE COLCMBIAS
Ellls Ward Is working well with the Columbias
and there Is no fear but that he Will have three
number one crews ready on the 4th OF October.
The senior crew that is rowing now consists of
hintner, Mute, Woodward and Davis These arethe
same men that rowed at fredericksburg with the
exception OF Woodward, and everybody knows
that they can row. Henderson, who rowed bow
at Fredericksburg, will probably in the light
Weght crew, and viii also contest the junior SIN
gle race. Smith and ZeIgler, it is thought, will
also be In the lightweight crew. Ellis Ward has
every diy, number OF men out in the pair-oared
smell, seeing what they are made OF. The race for
Junior singles viii have but entries, as decd-
Ing the kimbal race OF last fail. an open race has
QeDarfed number OF single-Shell men by max
ing them seniors. Taking everything together
The prospects for the regatta are splendid, ana
great deal OF interest is being manifested.

The COngress1OnaI Circus.

Washington, 24.-The republicans
accomplished two important results
in the House to-day. They secured
the attendance of a quorum to vote
on the Mackey-Dibble contested
election case. and in the course Of a
spirited debate, lasting one hour
and half, made plain TO the country
the merits o. the pending cOntrO
versy. The democrats have asserted
as reason for tilibustering against
the consideration of the case, that
Mackey interlined, interpOlated,
erased and falSified the dispositions
OF witnesses examined in his behalf,
when the contest was begun inSOuth
Carolina one year ago, Dibble filed
ten afidavits in support of this
charge. Mackey was called upon
to answer; he produced the affida-
Wits of eighty-fOur out Of ninety
four witnesses examined by him,
swearing that their testimony as
printed was word for word what
they had swOrR to; he produced the
affidavit of the stenegrapher who
took the testimony, to the effect
that the printed testimony
of thirty-three witnesses, all he had
time to examine, was identical with
the notes taken by him. Mackey
rested his case on fourteen deposit
lions only. The stenOgrapher swore
he had compared these dispositions
with the original notes taken at the
time of the examination, and they
were identical. Back, however, of
the issue as to the character of the
testimony, the republicans rest the
case on the fact that the democratic
precinct managers certified that
Maekey was elected by SIS
majority. This result was over.

That Bill.

London, 24.-ln the Commons
Forster denied that government
had negotiated with the suspects
clandestinely to him. Debate on
the repression bill was resumed.
Gladstone severely denounced Dill
lon for endorsing the Outrages by
refusing TO assist government in
carrying through the bill. Dillon
declared that he had always de-
nounced the outrages. Gladstone
replied that the meters to agitation
were responsible for the cOnse-
quences. Dillon affirmed that
Gladstone spoke of BoycOtting as
legal. EYictiOns were more culp-
able than the Outrages. Gladstone
spoke with great passion. He said
the Irish must confne themselves to
agitating for changes in the land
law, or whatever they may desire, by
means respecting the private iudg
ment and liberty of the people. In
regard to the objection of Irish
Judges to the suppression of juries,
he declared that if Parliament
allowed the judges to interfere in the
framing Of the bill they would
abandon one of the most important
functions of government. The in
stitution Of a special tribunal is
necessary, but that question can be
discussed in the committee. No good
could come Of a prolonged discus
sion, unless it was the intention of
some members to eXasperate the
luminosity between England and
Ireland. He beseeched the House
not to obstruct the bill. Richie,
conservative, for Tower Of Hamlets,
stated that he would not vote for
the bill. NOrthcote said he regretted
this Intention. Whatever fault
might be found with governments
Irish policy. the conservatives ought
to give a solid vote for the bill in
the interests Of peace and order.
ODonneI, home rule member for
DungraYan, denounced the bill.
The Irish, he said, ought never to
rest until the administration of Ire
land is free from British interfer-
ence. The debate on the motion to
go into committee on the repression
bill was again adjourned on motion
of Parnell. The utterance of Dillon
provoked Gladstone's attack, when
he implied that evictions were more
culpable than outrages.

An Exceptional Case.

Washington, 24.-In the Senate,
to-day, Slater reported from the
committee on Indian affairs the
original bill appropriating $500 for
the relief of Mrs. A. Boldly, Of Lake
County, Oregon, widow of the VIC
tim of the Modoc Indian massacre.
The committee, in their report, con-
cur in regarding this an exception
to the usual class of claims for In
dian depredations, because the out
break was the result of an unsuc-
cessful offensive movement by the
United States troops for the purpose
Of combining the MOdOcs to their re-
servation, and was without notice
by the United States authorities.
The bill went to the calendar.

HOUSE.

w aShlngS0n, 24.-The request OF
the Senate for the return of the 3
per cent. land bill was acceded to.
Calkins, rising to a question Of
personal privilege, sent to the clerks
desk and had read that portion of a
letter written by Hewitt to Man
ming which charges that the COM
mittee ON elections refused to in
veStigate the charges of forgery pre-
ferred before the committee.
CalKinS said when a member Of
Congress made these charges it was
a reflection on every member of the
committee. He indicated the COM
mittee, and noisy discussion arose,
and there was an uprOar until
CalkinS demanded that Anterior,
his chief opponent in the debate, be
allowed the floor.
Reagan objected.
Hewitt thought the whole matter
should be referred back and the
forgery charge investigated. He
would not filibuster to keep any
man from Il seat if the truth were
admitted in advance.
CalkinS held that the democratic
party couldn't afford to stand ON the
footing of filibuStering because some
testimony is questioned.
Filibustering was resumed.
a call of the House was then or
dered, but the roll disclosing no
quorum, further proceedings under
call were dispensed with and the
question again required on the mo-
ton to adjourn over. The vote re-
sulted-yeaS l, Benz. Wood, OF New
York, nays AS, two more than
quorum.
Muldrow, of Mississippi, who had
voted in the negative, Immediately
rose and moved reconsideration
and Calkins moved TO lay that mo-
ton OH the table. The motion to
reconsider was tabled-years 147,
nays none, exactly a quorum.
A motion adjourn, submitted by
Randall, was lost yeas, none nays IA.
During the roll call on q dilatOry
motion, Walker, of Pennsylvania
standing in the rear of the members
seat, fell in fainting fit and was
laid on a sofa. There was some
excitement which ceased, however
when it was announced that
Walker was suffering simply from
slight attack of vertigo.
Kenna, Of West Virginia, moved
that when the House adjourn it bC
to meet on Saturday.
Randall moved to amend by sub
shutting Friday. On this vote the
| republicans lost their quorum, the
result being yeas /, nay 40, and 6
call Of the House was ordered.
| Walker recovered in time to an
swer to his name on this call. Mat
tiers remained in StGtU quo for al
hour and a half. The sergeant-at
arms was dispatched after the
absent members, and those present
killed time in conversation anC
reading until 5, when CalkinS Qnd)
stating that he would call up the
election case tomorrow, and adVlS
ing the members to bring five days
rations with them, moved an ad
Journment. Agreed to.

MISSISSIPPI OVEKFLOwS.
MOre and Greater Suffering
Along the Bic River.

Little Rock, 24.-General Man
gum, state agent for the Edistribu-
ton of supplies on the Arkansas side
of the Mississippi river, during late
overflow, writes Governor Churchen
that the second overflow is nearly as
DISASTROUS as the first. He says more
then three-fourths Of the tillable
bottom land of Phillips county is
now under water, with no prospect
Of being out before the last of June.
His information is that Disha is in
about the same condition; also a
portion of Lee, Monroe and Critten-
den counties. The suffering
with the labOrers in these
counties will be greater than
ever known. They are nearly
all negroes, with nothing and no
means Of obtaining the absolute ne
cessaries of life. No merchant or
planter will advance for them as all
hopes of making crop are gone.
They are willing to work, but there
is no work for them, as planters af-
fected by the water have all the
labor they want. Gen. MaUgum
concludes: "If the general govern
ment will rebuild the levees at
once, the negroes can get
work on them, so that
they can support themselves and
families. If the government does
not feed them until they can get
work, I fear many will starve. The
condition Of the people on lands
now under water is alarming. I
do not know what can be done for
them, except through the general
government. Intercede for them
and do what you can with the gem
eral government" .az1
