On last evening the officers of tho grand
lodge of Good Templars made their semi
annual visitation to Rescue lodge, and despite
the very inclement weather, were received by
an unusually large membership. The meet.
ing was in every respect the most pleasant
and important in the history of the lodge and
gave abundant evidence that tho member
ship has already acquired complete knowl-
edge of the elements OF success with which
the order abounds. A critical inspection by the
grand lodge officers showed every depart
mont to be well managed, and that though it
is young it has attained prosperity and
efficiency rarely secured so early by any

afternoon for Baltimore, whore they will

Bennett, by many considered the best catcher
in the country, wears the mask.
Much regret has been expressed that our
boys were prevented from meeting the Provi.

that the weather the balance of the week
will be favorable.
In the game this afternoon Hamill will

CHEAP TELEGRAPHY.
The Amended Postal Telegraph Bill as
Agreed Upon by the Senate COMMITTEES.

The Amended Postal Telegraph Bill as
Agreed Upon by the Senate COMMITTEES.
The postal telegraph bill, which received
tho approval of majority of the senate COM
mittee on postoffices and postroads week
ago, was retained in the committee until
Tuesday for the perfection of some of its de-
tails, and was reported by Senator Hill to the
senate yesterday. The provision relating to
the liability of the contracting company for
failure to correctly and promptly transmit
messages has been amended by limiting such
liability TO 500 times the amount paid for
transmission. Two new features have been
added to the bill. Tho first authorizes the
contracting company to employ the post.
master rs its agent and operator at any
postal telegraph office where the tele-
graphic receipts are insufficient to pay
the salary of an operator, and to
pay him commission not exceeding so per
cent. of the charges on the messages trans
mitted from the office. The second requires
the postmaster general to secure provisions in
the contract which shall protect postal tele-
grams against discrimination in the order of
transmission in favor of kilograms received
at such of the company's offices as are not
operated under the provisions of the bill.
The contract system remains the most prom
inent feature of the bill, and is not widely
different from the scheme of the Postal Tele.
graph company, except that it empowers tho
postmaster general to receive bids from any
telegraph company for the contract. The
provisions relating to tho establishment of a
government system, pure and simple, in the
event that no satisfactory contract with
established companies is secured, are COM
bination of the features Of the Hill and the
Edmunds bills,

MIR. TREADwELL,s DEATH.
Col. Broadhead's Clerk Dies From the
Same Disease that Removed His chief.

Col. Broadhead's Clerk Dies From the
Same Disease that Removed His chief.
On last Saturday afternoon Mr.. John Tread
we'll arrived in this city and registered at the
National hotel. He had been to San Antonio,
Texas, acting rs clerk to Col. Broadhead, pay
accompanied him from San Antonio to Boston.
Col. Broadhead, who had been i'll with pneu-
monis, died several days ago in
Boston, and Mr.. Treadwell come from
that city to Washington. He was not
seen again after registering at the National,
and yesterday morning the clerk of the hotel
sent up servant to ascertain whether or not
he was in his room. The servant reported
that he thought tho man was dead. Mr..
Hof, the clerk, found the dead body of MIR.
Treadwell lying across the bed almost en-
tirely unclothed, excepting as to shirt and
vest, and with the feet resting upon the floor.
Among the effects of deceased were found
papers showing that he was connected with
the paymaster's department Of the army, Sl1
in money, and life insurance for 5000.
He has wife living at Frederick, Md. An
autopsy was made by DR.. Hartigan, who de-
cided that death was caused by pneumonia.
1t is thought that the worry and care in
volved upon Mr.. Treadwell during the in-
sanity Of COL Broadhead in Texas and his
subsequent illness in Boston SO prostrated his
system as to produce illness resulting in
pneumonia. He was we'll known in WASH
ington by o number Of friends, who much
regret his sudden demise.
The remains will probably be sent to Farm
ington, Conn.,, for interment.

The Fire Engine and Truck Houses
Visited Last Night and the nIen Found
Prompt.
The officers and trustees of the Columbia
Fire Insurance company of which il. A..
Willard is president, on the invitation Of
Mr.. Cronin, chief of the fire department,
visited several Of the engine houses last night
for the purpose of witnessing the efficiency
of the fire department The first place
visited by the party was engine house No 3
Immediately on entering tho alarm was
struck. At tho first stroke trap doors in
the second floor were thrown open
and with hardly n seconds delay the men,
who were reused from their beds, made their
appearance, sliding in quick succession down
brass pole to the ground floor. The Soc
ond stroke of the gong threw open the doors
for the horses, which are fastened in such u
manner that the act of starting forward un-
iastens tho halters These bounded to
their places with neigh of de-
light, and were Immediately hitched
and ready TO start. Tho whole proceeding
occupied at this house but seven seconds.
They then visited Truck Il, on New Hamp-
shire avenue, where tho timo occupied in
getting the truck ready for starting was
seven and half seconds; engine No. 1, where
the tmo was eight seconds, and engine No. 8.
This company did best Of oil, making oil pre-
paratons in six seconds. At this point tho
admiration of certain members Of the company
burst into enthusiasm, and rushingup the stairs
they soon appeared before their astonished
colleagues, sliding down the brass rod with
gracefulness and rapidity which would have
been creditablo to the best fireman on the
force. At each engine house they visited
there was decided tendency on tho
part of tho party toward panic when
the alarm struck, tho sight of those
bounding horses being almost more than they
could stand, when there was considerable
danger of being run over In each house
they found the mems quarters In excellent
condition. After the inspection the entire
party returned to Mr. Willards house, where
an elegant supper was served.
