e LORDS DENOUNCED.

The Daily Neus says there is a possibility
of a dissolution of Parliament either by
Gladstone or, after his acceptance Of office, by
the Marquis of Salisbury. After attacking
the House of Lords az icing an unrepre-
sentative chamber and declaring that the
country will do well to ask itself how far the
existence Of the House OF Lords IN Its prese ut
shape is consistent with the interests of the
realm, the Ners says 1t hopes the lords
will give way in their opposition to the ar
rears rent bill and prevent the responsible
ties of obstinacy.

CLEVELAND, O., August LA Miliersburs
special to the Leader reports that the dani'
age by the wa'er-spout yesterday was greater
than was at first supposed. The storm w.
confined to an area of about six miles etst
and west and four miles north and south.
The town of Millersburg was about in the
center. It was the most devastating rfln-
storm ever known there, although il lated
but three hours. Hundreds of acres Of corn
are covered with mud, many acres of yota-
toes are washed out, hay stacks swspt away
and other crops ruined. The Bowen coal
mine, three miles from Millersburg, was
filled with water 30 rapidly that the miners
barely had time to escape. One old msn,
named George Hoops, saved himself BY
jumping on the back of mule, which swan
out with him. Witnesses we're astounted to
see great waves several feet high roll over
the land which a few minutes before was
parched from drouth. No loss Of life il re-
ported.

The Chinese Bill,

- Washington, l9.-The House Chinese
bill was reported back to the Senate THU
afternoon by General Miller, with the
amendment proposed by the foreign re-
latlons committee, aud was ordered to be
printed and placed on the calendar.
Senator Miller, in reporting it, gave
notice very significantly that the amend
ments we're not uusnimcu', but that on
the contrary each msmbef OF the COM
fnl;tee reserved the right either to oppose
or support any Of the reported amend
IRE Is. This remark was intended to
toreshad ow the intention of Miller and
al! The democratic members of the COM
mite to resist the adoption Of the amend
meDts, which provide for striking out
the 18th and 18th asections, known as
the Farley rnd Grover provisions of the
vetoed bill, and as stated in these dis
p4tChes yesterday, there is nc doubt bat
Doth sections will finally be retained in
The bill. SeLatOr Miller also gave notice
to-day, that he will endeavOr to call I'D
the bill for action at 2 o'clock Tomorrow
afternoon. 1t is not considered probable
that the Senate viii consent to lay aside
the unfinished business, namely, the
Mississippi River bill, in order to take
up the Chinese bill to morrow, but Mil
ler's notice mean while serves as a pre-.
emption claim upon the time aud stten-
ton of the Senate to be enforced as soon
as the pending measure shall have been
disposed of.
Washington, 20.-Psge has very care
fully csnvsssed the Senate upon the
chances for the final passage of his Chi
nese bill, and is quite certain it will 60
through just the same as it came from
the House. The amendments proposed
by the Senate committee on foreign rels-
tons are not acceptable to Pacific Coast
members. Tney we're substantially
urged when the vetoed bill was before
the Senate without success That bill
passed by large msjority and was much
more stringent 10 all its provisions than
the present bill. Neither Page nor Sen
stor Miller is able to think of any senator
who voted for the first bill who will op-
pose the present one They expect to
have 9 tWo-thirds vote for the asssge,
and without much debate.

to turn an honest penny the Capt.

City for Benton, he borrowed a
brace of thoroughbred Cochin
China fowls; which he placed in a
conspicuous position on his boat.
Upon rounding to at military post
or Indian agency, the officers and
civilians attention was naturally
attracted to the birds in the coop
and in order to break the
monotony of their garrison life
they wanted the chickens, but the
honest old tar would .refuse, assn.

fowl fancier in Montana. OF
