WASHINGTON, May IA.
Mr.. Hoar asked and obtained unanimous
consent TO postpone the consideration of the
Utah bill from two O'Clock today to Monday
next at the same hour.
On the pension bill reported by Mr.. Cam.
den, from the committee on pensionn, a de-
bate arose anticipated in by Messrs. Camden,
Logan. Beck, Harris and Jackson, and be.
came animated when Mr.. Van Wyck took
the floor.
Mr.. Blair, in the course of his remarks on
the bill, had said that he moved in the CON-
mi.tee for reduction of the amount of pen.
sions in the belief that smaller 'amoun,
would more readily secure the favorable
recommendation of the committee.
Mr. Van Wyck criticised the action of Mr..
Blair in the committee, and the statement OF
that senator as TO the reasons which induced
him to move in the committee for a reduction
of the amount of pensions.
While MIR. Van Woek was speaking, Mr..
Allison raised point of order that referred
to what happened in the committee rooms
were not in order.
Mr.. Van Wyck said he was proceeding by
unanimous consent
The chair ruled that such references were
out of order
Mr.. Van Wyck made attempts to be heard
and Mr.. Blair would occasionally put in a
word, out both were called to order and the
matter dropped.
On motion of Mr.. Blair the Senate took mp
the bureau of labor statistics bill passed by
the House. and Mr. Blair urged its passage.
MIR. Garland moved an amendment provid-
ing that the bureau of statistics OF the treas
ury department shall do the work required
by the bill, and also providing for the collec-
nf inf frthn fhta M a
divorces in the United States.
Pending the debate the Senate adjourned.

The reports in favor of the contestants in
the election cases of English against Peele of
Indiana, ind Wallace VS.. Mckinley of Ohio,
were submitted and laid over.
The House went into committee of the
whole on the consular diplomatic appropria-
ton bill.
Mr.. Burns of Missouri who has charge of
the bill, explained its provisions. 1t appro-

After considerable debate, during which
Mr.. Robinson of New FORK bitterly denounced
Minister Lowe ell the bill was read by para
graphs.
Mr.. Robinson moved to abolish the office
minister of Great Britain.
Mr.. Curtin of Pennsylvania opposed the
motion, declaring it to be in wreched taste
to break off the relations with any one
nation in so rude and improper a manner.
The motion was lost and the committee e
rose.
Mr.. Springer of Illinois asked consent to
put on passage bill authorizing the secre-
tary of the treasury to purchase about S42,-
600. 600 worth of bonds with the greenbacks
held in the treasury for the redemption of the
retired national bank circulation, which
would relieve the money market to the ex

On Tuesday evening it was reported in the

have fallen into the canal. The people
turned out in large numbers. The water was
drawn from the canal as much as could be-
and search was made its whole length, but
as there was still foot or more of w4ter, 1t
proved unavailing though the search was con-
tinued well into the night Wednesday
morning the ground was looked over again

Defective.

New YORK, May IA.
The reference in the suit brought BY Jno.
Morris against the firm of Grant & Ward was
begun today before Referee cole. Ward was
nlsced on the stand and asked in regard to
what he paid for the property. the time, place
and how he paid it. His memory was de-
fective and when he remembered anything it
was only in an indistinct and indefinite way.
He said he paid for the property purchased
in checks; did not know on what bank; got
money for rents and dividends and the check
books would show this; he bought the Brook
lyn property at . receivers sale and paid for
il by check; gave $4,000 for it; bought an
interest in Booths theatre but did not re-
member what he paid for it.
The Buffalo, New York & Philadelphis
Railroad procured an injunction restraining
Julien T. Davis, assignee of Grant & Ward,
from disposing of bonds. A prominent Off.
cial of the Erie road said that the second
consolidated bonds for June would probably
be paid. EC& A8A
Mr.. Davies, receiver Of Grant Ward
saws he has not yet made an inventory of the
securities Of the firm. He believed General

makes the following statement: my son,
who was between three and four years
old, was all drawn up with rheumatism
His bones were twisted, and he was al
doubled out of shape. He suffered in.

cross and fretful He was reduced to q

about on pillow. As these cases OF

and the joints were all crooked, had fol-

according to directions. with the most
satisfactory results. My son commenced
improving with the first dose of the med
icine. His sufferings diminished daily
and his appetite increased; he became
cheerful and in good spirits. Gradually
he regained use of his limbs, the twisted
bones and joints Strengthened out and ii
lesa than two months he was entirely
cured, and could walk and get about as
well as any hid of bis age.

eral from the localities where the duties are
to be performed, and upon the recommenda-
ton of the marshal, and are to receive COM
pensation in fees for actual service per-
formed All constructive fees and mileages
are prohibited. The deputy marshals
are entitled to the fees which they earn
Writs must be sent in all cases by mail when
practicable and for distances covered by the
postal service no fees are allowed The court
officials, when travelling, must use public con
yeyanees, where there are such, and are TO bs
reimbursed for only the actual amount ex-
pended for fare. Where free or reduced
transportation is afforded, this fact must be
stated in the service account, and the allow

The provision relating to United States
commissioners is very important 1t requires
the United States courts to establish com
missioners' districts, and to appoint one COM
missioner in each district, before whom all
cases must be brought that arise in his
district. Commissioners are allowed IS for
each case tried, instead of S. for each day,
which will largely reduce the cost for such
commissioners. It provides that United
States courts may appoint justices of the
peace, commissioned under state law, to act
as United States commissioners, and sheriffs
and constables may be appointed deputy
marshals. The amendment on the single sub.
ject which it covers, that of expenses of

We have intimated that the widening
and deepening revolt that has followed
the nomination of Blaine and Logan is
not merely resentment of these nomina-
tions, but moral revolt against the re
publican party which can be neither ar
rested nor placated. The following
extract from the well written letter of a
Massachusetts republican in the Boston
Advertiser shows pretty clearly the natule
of the movement, and shows, too, that
constantly increasing element of republi-
cans is ready to see, with satisfaction and
relief, their own party displaced with
democratic regime at Washington:
''In the discharge of its trust the repub
hcan party drew to itself the intelligence
and virtue of the land, but with its tri-
umph it caught the infection of corruption
which so often attacks success. Suffers,
placemen and soldiers of fortune f1ocked
to it and sowed the seed of the deadly
upas tree which burst into blossom at
Chicago, casting its fatal shadow. A
valiant struggle against this has been
waged in the ranks for years and the fate
has trembled in the balance. Loyalty,
but under protest, have thousands voted
the old ticket, closing their eyes and let
ting no word pass their lips because of
the faith and the hope in their hearts that
the sores might be purged. That faith
and hope is dead, so far as the pending
campaign is concerned; the tie is severed
and the tongues loosed, and hundreds of
thousands throughout the land are set
adrift. Yet logically and Loyalty, they
can not go into the democratic fold
they are of different faith.
"They are prepared, if need be, to &C.
cept four years of democratic rule. Bet
