WASHINGTON.

Washington, 5.-Senator Miller
introduced in the Senate, to-day,
bills relating to the revival of the
shipping interest recommended by
the board of trade of San Francisco.
These bills were introduced in the
House, yesterday, by Page and
Rosecrans.
General Rosecrans is urging the
committee on public buildings tore
port his bill for a postoffice at San
Francisco, but as yet without sue
cess. Mr.. Shallerberger, chairman
of the committee, says the trouble
about securing report on this bill is
that the committee, in concurrence
with the secretary Of the treasury.
have determined that in every case
where it is agreed that a public
building shall be erected, a commits.
sion of disinterested citizens shall
be appointed to select a site, but
that Rosecrans' bill provides for a
commission named therein, and
that he insists upon the passage of
the bill with this provision.
The bill introduced last session by
Delegate Brent, of Washington
Territory, to permit army officers
ON the retired list to hold civil Offices
in territories, which was reported
favorably from the committee on
military affairs, was reached on the
House calendar to-day, but the House
refused to consider it at this time.
Governor Sheldon, of New Mexico.
is in the city to secure the passage
by Congress of an act legaliZing the
present biennial session of the legis
lature of that territory and to in
troduce biennial sessions.
1t is understood that Representa-
tives Blount and Belmont, of the
foreign affairs committee, who Wert
to have signed the minority report
on tn Nicaraguan Canal bill, have
disagreed as to some important
points, and that each will make
report on his own account mex
week.
The House, to-day, passed a bill
relating to American shipping laws
| which is similar in its provisions t
one of the bills recommended by th
San Francisco board of trade, an
introduced yesterday by Californi
members. 1t provides for such
modification Of the shipping laws a
| will relieve ship owners from tn

NeiIsson as chicago.

Chicago, s. Christine Nelson
sang here tonight in a concert. The
audience was very fashionable, ana
limited only by the capacity of the
house. "Standing room only" was
paraded before the doors were
opened. Many were tut led away.
She was warmly received at frs, en-
Enthusiastically at the last. For
the second number she sang
the Jewell Song, from Faust,
and responded to a hearty
encore with the little Swedish Folk
song and to the second encore with
sold Folks at Home" whsse homely
melody SIC elevated almost to the
classic. While she seems to have
lost SOM Ching of the silvery clear
ness of her voice Of u years ago,
when last here, the lack was more
than made up in the expression. As a
dramatic singer she is without equal.
She goes next to San Francisco.

THE COMMISSIONERS.
Marriage Law wanted

Washington, 5.-The Utah COM
mission in its report to the secretary
of the interior, recommends that a
marriage law be enacted by Con-
gress which WonId form an auxil-
liary in the suppression of polyga-
my. The commission says, owing
to the peculiar state of affairs in
Utah, the territorial law allowing
women the rights of suffrage, is an
obstruction to the speedy solution of
the question and it should be re-
pealed or annulled by Congress. The
commission says the law, so far, has
been a decided success in
excluding polygamists from the
exercise of suffrage and continued
enforcement Of the law will place
polygamy in a condition of gradual
extinction. The commission, no.
tees, as an encouraging sign, that
many of the Liberal meetings
had been largely attended by Nor
mons. In conclusion the report
says, after counselling moderation,
if, however, the next session of the
legislative assembly, elected under
the act of Congress, shall fail to
respond to the will of the nation,
Congress should have no hesitation
in using extraordinary measures to
compel the people Of this territory
to obey the laws Of the land.

BeImont's Libel.

New York, 5.-The criminal libel
salt of August Belmont against
John Dewey, editor of the Irish
Nation, is continued. The defen-
dant was present, having been
brought up from the tombs, where
he is undergoing a sentence of thirty
days imprisonment for contempt of
court. August Belmont testified
that when he saw the libel he went
to Cardinal Met losky, Vicar-generaI
Quinn and others, with a statement
Of the matters. These gentlemen
went to Dewey and endeavored to
have him retract the article. Bel
mont said he was N the employ of
OF ROthschilds as an apprentice and
clerk from thirteen years of age till
he came to this country in 1887,
without pay.

Austria's Finances.

Vienna, 5.-The Reichsrath reas-
sembled. M. Dunajewski, minis
ter of finance, submitted the budget
for 1888, showing deficit of $4,000
forms. The taxes of the first nine
months in 1882 yielded an increase
of $4,000 forms, compared with the
same period in 1881. The condition
Of the treasury is extremely favor
able. Government will be able TO
pay off uncovered credits to the
amount of 14,200,000 florins. 1t is
probable that a considerable portion
of the deficit for 1888, can be met by
cash in hand fer the current year.

abe Body Snatehers.

Philadelphia, 5.-Lebanon Gene
terry, from which the bodies were
stolen, is the tavorite buryingground
of colored people. Long before the
hour set for the hearing crowds of
colored people hlockaded the streets.
Plots to lynch the prisoners were
discussed, but they were rushed
through the hallway to the
back room before the PEG
pie realized what was going on.
Two keys were found on McNamee
which fitted the doors in the room
where the bodies are prepared for
dissection at Jefferson College.
MeNamee denied any knowledge of
who gave them to him, but finally
said he waited outside the cemetery
while the others brought the bodies
out, and he knew where they came
from.
Robert Chew, when arrested at
the cemetery, said he was paid So
for every body taken from the
cemetery. The money was handed
him by his brother. He did not
know how many graves had been
robbed; sometimes Pillet did the
digging and sometimes Levy. He
had been in the cemetery
eleven years and body snatching
had been going Zen for nine years.
His brother-in- law, Solomon Butch
er, now in Maryland, did it first,
then a man named Myers. then
McNamee. Sometimes wagons
came and drivers saw they were
short. Collins were opened in the
vault, corpses snatched and the farce
of burying the empty coffin was
gone through next day. The rec
ords of the burial Eat the cemetery
showed that in two months fifty
three bodies had been put in one
grave. THIS statement created q
great sensation.
Defendants were committed in
default of $1,000 bail for further
hearing on Friday.
As soon az the crowd outside of the
N agistrate's office learned that the
examination was over, a rush was
made for the entry and the gateway
with threats to lynch the prisoners
A sergeant and ten men were sent
for, the snatchers were then
brought out. and the crowd made
another rush. Women and men
struck at the prisoners, who cow
cred before them. The policemen
drew their clubs, and on the trOt
they went to the central station
where the prisoners were locked up
| fer the night.

The Attempted Assassination

London, At is reported that
Maclean bears himself cheerfully,
and sings in his cell. The British
press expresses much qualification
at the manifestation of feeling of
the American press and people of ali
shades of politics, which fulflls the
anticipations expressed here in first
comments ON the attempt on the
Queens life. The almost universal
opinion in England seems to be that
Maclean is a lunatic.
Ponsonby replied to LOwell's per
sonal telegram as follows: "The
Queen is much touched by your
congratulations, and desires to ex.
press her sincere thanks"
The Empress of Austria will visit
Windsor on Monday to personally
congratulate the Queen.

W aShlngton, 4.-The Secretary Of
war to-day telegraphed Senator
| Vest, of Missouri, in reply to a tele-
gram received by the Department of
war from Governor CrittendOn for
more ratiOns, as follows: Eight lavs,
supply for the number stated bv
him (GovernOr CrIttendon) in Mis-
sissippi and PemiscOtt Counties have
already been sent. In view of the
enormous demands from lower
down the river, it does not seem ad-
viSable to increase the supplies to.
this point at present. For example,
the Arkansas commissioners ask
$4,000 rations for forty days, which
alone would cost about $4,000 more
than the total amount appropriated
by Congress for all sufferers. -,
Secretary Lincoln has been busy
to-day, in pertecting plans for the
distribution of the subsistence
stores authorized by Congress to be
issued To those made destitute by
foods in the Mississippi valley.
From data furnished, he thinks four
times the sum granted could be ex-
pended without meeting the actual
immediate needs of the people
Eight officers of the army
will be detailed TO investigate
the wants of the people on
the spot, and General Sheridan
has been ordered to detail four or
more of those from his division to
proceed at once to the flooded dis
trict. In view Of the widespread
distress it is intended by the dele
gates from the states affected to
ask Congress for an additional ap-
preparation for relief, and also to
furnish the poor with seed corn for
the coming spring planting. Il is
represented that all the corn re-
served for that purpose has been de
S troyed, and unless it can promptly
be replaced the suffering Of the
present will be turned into an abso-
lutte famine during the year. The
advocates of the imprOVent of the
River are urging the
present condition Of the valley as a
strong argument in favor of a lIO-
eral appropriation to build national
ievees and strengthen tie course Of
rivers.
