Acting Secretary Fairchild received = re-
port from Collector Anderson at Portland
in regard to the detention of the British
schooner Sisters, in which he states that
the statements made by Capt. Ellis are in
the main correct, and that he had not dis
covered any attempt on the part of Capt.
Ellis to defraud the revenue. Theschooner
was detained for d failure to comply with
the navigation laws and customs regular
tions, and the case is referred to the treas
ury department for decision.
The president has vetoed bills for the
relief Of Rebecca Eldridge and Eleanor c.
granting pensions to Mrs. Anna Cowen,
Simon w. Harden and J. D. Haworth.
Approval is withheld on the ground that
the disability for which relief or pension
is asked, had it's origin in causes existing
prior to the enlistment OF the persons for
whose services the claims are made. In
the case OF Mrs. Eldridge the president
says: 1T il not a pleasant thing to in
terfere, but we are dealing with pensions
and not with gratuities.' ..#~
Antonio Nardello was hanged in the dis
trict jail, near Washington, for the murder
of Carmine Rotunno. He made speech
on the scaffo.d, land protested hisinnocence.
Rotunno was laborer, who had accumu-
lated $500 or 5000. To obtain this
money, Eardello, on July %. 1885, killed
his fellow. eountryman by cutting his
throat. ..a. -...G. ..@.s ~

sci for the board.

cepted, while other presents In the form
of cur1osiries have been sent over to the
National museum, but us the president will
probably not be married again during his
term of Office it is thought he will not count
this time and will permit the bride to receive
the usual courtesiea The members
of the cabinet will present Mrs.
Cleveland solid silver dinner service,
and Mrs Whitney has been delegated to
make the selection She went to New York
Saturday morning to arrange the family
residence there, and this was another Of her
errands 1t is understood also that in addi-
ton to this general gift the families of the
cabinet officers will make other presents to
the bride, and that many Of the presidents
intimate friends here will follow this ex-
ample. A Democratic member Of congress,
with several millions Of money and an init
mate Of the White House, to make him
happy has sent to a friend in Phila-
delphia to secure him something hand
some and appropriate, and on Saturday there
was an unusual number of customers In the
iewelry stores of this city.
