Scene in n Hotel Dining ssoom at Manhattan
BeRch-A Beautiful Oung Lady Severely
COwhided.
New York, July S-The walters at Man
haitian Beach were very busily employed last
evening when about : O'Clock a young lady,
escorted by stately looking gentleman, en-
tered the large dining room. She was attired
in white with ribbons in strong contrast and
a rich display of lace and elaborate trim
mings. The lady carried herself right royalty.
She glanced rather haaghtily about her as
the waiter drew back her chsir, resigned her
psrasol to her escort as if she were doing him
signal service, and being finally seated as
sumed an air of languid and superb indiffer-
ence. Her face bore well the scrutiny it was
subjected to- 1t was pale, oval and peculiarly
fascinating. The eyes were singularly large
and full; the nose a model for the highesC
form of Grecisn chiseling. The gentleman
was evidently nearly twice her age, and
there was no mistake as TO his devotion. The
pair proceeded to discuss as good q supper as
the bill Of fare afforded, when another lady
msde her appearance on the scene. There
are excellent reasons for believing that the
newcomer was the gentleman's wife. Her
eyes wandered about the dining-roOm until
they rested on the young lady and her friend.
She made her way very quietly over TO the
table where they were seated, and before
any one could appreciate What was going on
had drawn q riding-Whip from her pocket.
The gentleman sprang from his seat with
lock of dismay, but he wss too late to save
the girl. Three or four times the riding
whip whistled in the air, one vigorous stroke
leaving a scarlet streak across the young
lady s face. Ii was all the gentleman
could do to get the ladies parted and
the moment she was free the owner OF the
dsshing hat hurried out with all of her impe-
riousness gone, her features crumpled and
her dress disoTdered. This little episode had
taken up less than a minutes time, but the
excitement which it caused was of much
lorfer duration. The lady with the whip
struggled so iiercely to get free from the
gentle mans grasp that she finally succeeded.
In a moment she disappeared IN the direc-
ticn taken by the younger woman. The
prompt interference OF Manhatten Beach
police man saved second whipping. He
threatened to arrest the elderly lady ii she
made any violent demonstration and the
girl loCk refuge in the ladies' waiting-room.
How the gentleman and his companion sue
&C eded in meeting each other sgain is mys-
terry, but they were seen TO get on train to-
geiher while the assailant wandered about
the piazza as If in search of them. All at
fempts TO establish the identity of the parties
failed.

MISTAKEN ECONOMY
In the NIanagement of The Patent

In the Management of tho Patent Office.
WASHINGTON. July Cuisines in the
Patent Office continues to increase in vol
Ome, and there are alread 7
complaints of the reduction OF the
force, wbich took place tie 1st inst. For the
first half of the current year the mum Der ri
applications FOR patents was about $500
greater than for the corresponding period of
1852, and the receipts of the office were more
than SlOO, 0CO in access of those for the first
SIX months Of last year. Not onlv is the
Patent Office embarrassed by the reduction
OF the force, but by the frequent resignation
of Examiners ard other officers. Within
the last six months one Assistant
Commissioner of Patents aud eight Exami-
ners and Assistant Examiners have re-
signed. besides six or eight clerks and copy
isls. On the average there is a complete
change in the force OF examiners once in
five years. The most frequent changes are
in the electrical division, where the entire
force of examiners changes about twice in
sftTN uTte years. Very few men feel that
they con afford to remain in the Patent OF
flee moIe than four or i've years On account
of the opportunities offered them outside.
Ore OF the cOmplsints made on account OF
tDe r CuctlOn OF the force is that the Overn-
msnt j. / n equity bound to offer inventors
every 0ssbie facility for speedy adjust
merl heir claims because il receives f,Om
herr ernuPlly great deal more money than
il ps1s out for the support of the Patent OF
hce service. IT is remarked too, that much
OF the opposition TO sufficient appro-
pTlailOns for the support Of the
Office comes from Senators and Representa-
tives of States where the number of inven-
tions produced is very small An analysis of
the patents granted to inventors for any
stated period will show that, excluding Mis-
souri, the States south Of Mason and Dixon's
line produce only about or 10 per cent. of
the number of patents granted. The votes of
Senators and Representatives from these
States can always be counted upon to cut
down sppropnat ons for the support OF the
Patent Office.

ANTI-nONOPOLIsrs.
Proceedings of the Conference I'm Session at
ChicagO-The Platform.


CHICAGO, July Little progress was made
this morning at the National Conference of
Anti-Monopolists. The proceedings were
marked by good order, all present having
been recognized as delegates. The Committee
on Resolutions was not ready to report, and
the interim was filled with speeches on the
advisability of organizing a new party and
the stand it should take on the tariff. Let
tiers of encouragement from anti-monopoly
bodies of Oregon and New Jersey were read
to the Convention, espousing the objects for
which the assemblsge has been called.
Mr.. Brand, delegate from Nebraska, while
in favor Of free trade, was willing to put the
question aside, provided the platform con-
templated the suppression of all kinds of
monopoly, and particularly railroad monop-
oily.
Samuel Crocker, of Iowa, characterized the
present tariff system as 2 scheme Of robbery,
and he asserted that the delegates from his
State were not present TO keep quiet on cues
tions which involved the robbery OF the
former class.
Mr.. Wolf, of New York, urged the Con
Yention to coniine itself TO the question of
anti-monopoly. and not attempt TO organize
a new party until it had million votes at It's
back.
Mr. Lamb, OF Kansas said the Convention
had been called to organize new party, and
it was bound to abide by this resolve. Kansas
had the nucleus ready for new party.
William Dodge, of the District of COlum-
bia, made speech directed at the Railroad
Companies of the country, claiming that
they had robbed the people OF 200, 600 090 OF
acres of the public domain.
Ex-Congressman De ia Matyr. of Indiana,
discussed the greenback question, and stated
his belief that the country was ripe for the
organization Of a new party directed against
mOnopolieS. He declared that in Nation
where the average salary of the working pso-
pie was $500 a yesr and another class had
incomes ranging from 100000 TO 81, 900 900
annually, there was every prospect OF 2 reyG-
luton,
Rev. f. Heber Newton and A. II. Dun
game, of New " ork, were admitted as dele
gates, after which the session sdjouraed 10
o'clock The platform will be announced
this afternoon.
The afternoon session was not entered
upon till p. m. Mr. Streeter, OF Illinois,
submitted the platform prepared by the
Committee, which advocated a postal tele-
tional Banking system, the establishment OF
graduated income tax aud Of postal say
ings banks. 1t denounced gambling in the
necessaTies of life, protection of patent laws
and confining the taxation power Of Congress
10 assessing tax for the necessary expenses Of
the Government only.

missal of the appeal, therefore, IN vacation
by the appellants counsel, with the con-
sent of..the Solicitor General, put an end
10 the suspension and restored to binding
effect that order. 1t has been strenuousIy
insisted that the original order was not to be
enforced until the case 10 which the second
order refers should have been actually de-
termined by the Supreme Court can not
seQuiesce in this view, inasmuch as the COM
plainant could at any time by dismissing his
appeal withdraw the case from the de-
termination of the Court. The second order
would thus at the option OF the complainant
have the effect of absolute reyocation of the
preceding order. While mere suspension
of il was obviously intended, there is no
difference between perpet'isl suspension and
revocation. The controlling, indeed,
the only question in the case,
was the constitutional power of Con-
gress to enact a statute. Upon that
question / have no doubt The Supreme
Court affirmed the constitutionahty of the
act which declares 'no letter or circular con-
cerniDg lotteries, so called gift concerts or
other similar enterprises Offering priz as, shall
be carried in the mail" In view of this de-
cision the constitutionality OF the act appli
cable to this case can not be seriously
questioned. ] have confined myself TO mat
ters as they appear from the records of the
Department. Something was stated by
counsel representing parties in interest
as to verbal agreement or understanding,
but 1 have not felt at liberty to consider any
other facts than such as the Department
records establish, and the FIRST order will,
therefore, be executed as if the second had
not been entered.

Washington Special:
The new tariff Law having gone into effect
since the 1st inst, and stamps for bank
checks being done away with it may be valu-
able for business men to know that any per-
son having stamps or stamped checks, in
sheets blocks, if purchased within three
years may have them redeemed, and receive
money or an equivalent value in stamps by
complying with few requirements. It will
not be necessary to employ claim agent, for
such an agent viii only do what the original
holder can easily do without expense. The
holder OF stamps or stamped checks
should first procure a blank form,
which will be provided on applica-
ton to the Internal Revenue
Commissioner here or ono Of his Collectors.
On this form an account is given of the value
of the stamps sought to be redeemed, and il
must be sworn to. The filled-out form and
a package containing the stamps offered for
redemption must be addressed to Tine Com
missioner of Internal Revenue, Washington,

re turned over TO the chief of the Stamp Di-
vision, who will give it number correspond
ing with the order of its receipt, and it will
in its turn be examined 10 ascertain whether
the invoice and the stamp correspond and
whether the Government limitations do or
do rot exclude the stamps from redemption.
If all, or part, of the stamps can be redeem
ed, or if all are rfjected, the owner will be
informed. He may not get the money or

THE DEAD ARCHBIsHOP.
His Death without Apparent Physical Pain
The Funeral.


The Funeral.
CTNcINNATI, July Bishop Elder arrived
to-day from the deathbed of Archbishop
Purcell. The reaction of yesterday was
slight, but Rev. DR.. Callaghan, the faithful
secretary of the Archbishop, who was con-
stantly by his bed, was greatly rejoiced at
the signs of returning consciousness. They
did not include power to converse, as the
Archbishop's tongue had been stilled by
paralysis. He was able, however, to give
some tokens of recognition of friends. His
death at last was peaceful and apparently
without physical pain. Slight convulsions
appeared toward the end. and in one of
these he passed away. At his bedside were
