CHICAGO, May 13.-The only new feature in
to-day's market was the export demand for
No. 2 spring wheat, which was quite good.
There was but little change in The price, but
on the whole the market closed stronger than
yesterday. l am mixed on the wheat situa
ton and therefore won't venture an opinion.
The curb for June is S1.24%.
Corn was quite weak most of the day, but
closed up stronger. The bears are feeling
very happy over the fine weather we arc hay
ing, but when they realize that they must cover
their shorts, don't think they will feel so
gay, for even now the shippers are taking all
they can get at May prices. The curb fer
June is 72Ac.
Provisions were quiet but strong. Even
under the large receipts of hogs.

CoNGREssMEN's CHAMPAGNE.
$4,000 for Liquor and Cigars Consumed
on the Yorktown Trip.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-The House this
afternoon agreed to pay bill of $4,000 for
champagne, whisky and cigars. These arti-
cles were consumed on the occasion of the
Yorktown Centennial, and the money pre-
viously voted by Congress to defray the ex-
penses of that celebration proved inadequate
to meet the bill. The deficiency altogether
amounted to S32, 600, but it was this one
little item that stuck in the throats of
great many gentlemen who did not hesi-
tate to drink the rum on the
famous trip from Washington to Yorktown
Blunt of Georgia, Springer of Illinois, Cobb
of Indiana, and Dingley of Maine, protested
loudly and earnestly against the payment of
the bill. Cobb sent an itemized account of
the liquors and cigars purchased to the
clerk S desk to be read. The liquors embraced
madeira, sherry, brandy, port wine, whisky
and champagne, Burgundy, Rhine wine,
Sauterne and beer. Several hundred dollars
worth of cigars were embraced in the
account. The item of champagne alone
amounted to $500, Randolph Tucker of
Virginia, saw that it was necessary to say
something in behalf of the appropriation. If
Congress did not vote the money, the com
missioners who incurred the expenditure, of
course, would have to pay the bills Mr.
Tucker said 1t was ridiculous to higgle
about paying bills incurred for the enter
JalnmcnJ Oh bne BueSJs OF Jne government
Suppose, he said, some of the French gentle
men invited to attend the celebration wanted
glass of champagne, were the commits
sioners to stick their hands in their pockets
and say the appropriation is exhausted2 You
must drink Potomac water
Robinson of New York asked If the French
drank all the champagne. "If we would
have let the French drink alone," exclaimed
Tucker, 1--WE would have been blackguards
and not gentlemen" Springer character
ized the entertainment on the steamer from
Washington to Yorktown as free drunk
Mr.. Martin of Delaware jumped up and said
that there was not a drunken man on the
boat. Mr. Springer asked Martin if he was
there. Martin said he was. Springer said
he had no reference to the boat that Martin
was on, he meant another boat. Martin
said the explanation was satisfactory.
Robeson closed the debate by saying that
this government had invited certain French
and German gentlemen to be present at the
Yorktown celebration. Those gentlemen
were unaccustomed to the temperate habits
of the people of the United States. There
was not a child in all France, who was able
to procure a bottle of wine that drank
water The water was poison. The Com
mission, he declared, did its duty. The
only question was whether Congress should
endorse its actions or leave the bills to be
settled by those who, acting in good faith for
the good of the government, had incurred
them. 1t was voted to pay the money with
out division.

This was a dampener to the Republican

a motion to take recess for five minutes

During the recess there was another con-

bers with Mr.. Baker and with Mr.. Bird, Incl
dantally, and when this was concluded
the majority took their seats at the con-

objection to the seating of Mr.. Smith and
the contest was decided afterward. He
hoped the Republican members would not

the Presidents chair to take the oath amid

Mr.. Clayton took the oath and then Bailif
Daley stepped forward and warmly grasped
his duslly, but honest-looking successor by

capped the climax. Surprise gave way to
unbounded amusement and cheers, cat calls
and wild applause filled the chamber with a

AInsIIouse Work.

The engine just placed at Hare's Corner
to supply water for building purposes at the
new Almshouse is of eight-horse power and
answers the purpose very well. 1t has been
tried, and the supply of water found to be
much larger and Of better quality
than was expected. One of the Board of
Trustees says he is Of the opinion that enough
water can be obtained on the premises to
supply the Almshouse when built, provided
there is no dimunition in the quantity at
present available. The experience of hot
summer will be required to test the supply
however. A cistern has been built to
receive the water pumped. Work is being
pushed rapidly on the excavations.

SCHOOL NO. 4.
The Board OF Education Discusses Plans
for Building and Improving.

AT the special meeting of the Board of
Education last evening, called at the request
OF Messrs. II. ID. Hickman, B. r. Heisler
and Samuel +. Belts, there were present
Messrs. Baird, Mckay, Wiley, Fuekel,
Brooks, Hickman, Reeve, Morrow, Heisler
and Belts. The subject for discussion was
the proposed erection of additional rooms 10
school No. and alterations in the old
building. Mr.. Heisler made brief ex
planation in regard to plans for the addi-
tions and moved that recess be taken TO
| allow the members to inspect several draw
ings by Frank X. Carswell, the architect,
who was present to explain them. There
were three plans presented, which were
plainly elucidated by Mr.. Carswell and in
telligently discussed by the members.
The plan generally favored was one allow
ing for the erection of an addition having
two rooms, 23x42 feet, ON each of two floors,
and changes in the old portion. After re-
cess Colonel Heisler moved that the com
mittee having charge of the matter be au-
thorized To procure specifications and esti-
mates for the plan mentioned The matter
provoked discussion, anditwas finally decided
to divide the plan and act only upon one por-
tion at time, that course being deemed
advisable owing to the amount of money on
hand for building purposes. A motion was
therefore made and carried without dis
thorized to procure specifications for plan
No. for addition TO the rear of school No

motion was made and carried by a
vote of six to four, that plan known as No.
3, as amended, for making changes in the
old building be adopted and proposals
asked for. A discussion followed In which
Mr.. Carswell stated, when asked, that the
plan would be an expensive one, costing
considerable money. Mr.. Morrow objected
TO the changes as it would neeessitate, he
said, an expenditure Of about $4,000 to
81, 900. A motion was also carried request
ing Mr.. Morrow to present estimates for the
plan suggested by him during the evening,
and declared to be an economical one.
The plan accepted for the new building,
and for which estimates are to be obtained,
also includes an entry l2 feet wide between
the old and new buildings.
No other business was presented and the

Still Under Consideration - COnciliatory
Amendments Defeated.

LONDON, June 6.-In the debate on the
release Of tine suspects in the House of Lords
last evening Lord Cowper, late Lord Lieu
tenant of Ireland, said he had only signed
an order for the release of the Irish mem
bers of Parliament after obtaining an under
eeN8slitts shat his action was eorsidorea a
mere matter of official routine. He had
been so astonished at the telegram ordering
their release that he had at first hesitated to
credit it. He believed that the opinion of
the educated classes was against the release,
as the sudden manner in which it was
effected gave the matter the appearance of a
complete surrender to disorder.
In the House of Commons, last night, in
committee on the Repression bill, Sir Will
liam IIarcourt, Home Secretary, consented
to insert provisions assuring a prompt trial,
causing the Judges for the special court To
be selected by ballot, instead of being ap-
pointed, and obliging the Judges to state
the reasons for conviction in open court.
The House Of Commons, in committee,
resumed the consideration of the Repression
bill this evening, taking up clause 3, which
prescribes the manner of the constitution of
the Court of Criminal Appeal.
Mr.. Redmond moved an amendment, pro-
viding that in questions of fact the determi-
nation OF an appeal shall rest upon unanim-
ity of the Judges. The amendment was
rejected by vote of 21G to 55.
Sir William Harcourt, Home Secretary,
replying to Mr.. Healy, said the Government
was willing to insert provision to assist
poor prisoners who wished to appeal.
The fourth clause, providing that persons
guilty of intimidation shall be guilty of an
offence against this act, was then taken up.
Mr.. Healy moved an amendment requiring
that in cases of intimidation the persons
aggrieved shall complain. Messrs. Dillon
and Parnell supported the amendment.
Sir William liarcourt opposed the amend
ment, and it was rejected by vote of 219
to %.
The Daily NepS denies that Mr.. Dillon is
going to America.
