MONDAY, Aug. ,.
Sen0te-In the senate, the conferees on
the sundry civil appropriation bill this
morning reported back a disagreement
on that measure. Many points of diff
ference have been ad justed, however, and
the only matters that require the action
of the next conference are amendments
relating to the coast survey, public land
surveys, occupancy of the pension office
building, stenographers to supreme court
justices, Yellowstone park and an ad-
ditional building for the government in
sane asylum. In the secret session of the
senate to-day when the case of Dement,,
nominated to be surveyor general of
Utah, was reached, it was announced that
General Logan, who was absent, left word
that he had no more fight to make on De-
ment's behalf. Nobody defended Dement,
and he was rejected without discussion.
Fitz John Porter was confirmed with
out debate by nearly the same vote as
that cast for Fitz John Porter. The
nomination of G. II. Potter, to be Indian
agent for the Omaha and Winnebago
agency, and Z. II. Kinman, to be post
master at Jacksonville, ILL.,, were rejected.
Senator Sherman tried to call up the
the ratification treaty with Great Britain
which was favorably reported from the
committee on foreign relations but is was
voted down by a majority which made it
seem improbable that any action will be
reached this session.
HouSe-In the house, the speaker laid
before the house the bill to increase the
naval establishment, with the senate
amendments thereto, and Herbert, of AL
ALBANIA, moved concurrence in the amend
ments, the senate amendments to the naval
appropriation bill were concurred in, and
the bill, after the signature of the speaker
and the president of the senate have been
attached will go to the president for his
approval. On motion of Mr. Mason, of Ill.
the rules were suspended and the house
by a vote of yeas, 167, and nays, 81,
passed with verbal amendment the SEN
ate bill increasing the pension of soldiers
who have lost an arm or a leg in the ser
vice. The house then adjourned.
A Specific for Swclled Heads
New York Cor Baltimore Herald
A fashionable hotel in an uptown re-
gion, where the facilities for obtaining
an enlargement of the head are more
ample probably than anywhere else in
the city, has given permanent place in
its bill of fare to boiled clam Juice. The
secret of the potency of this preparation,
which is simply what its name calls it
the juice of the clam boiled until moder-
ately thick-has long been known, it is
said in London swelldom, but here it is
comparatively new. 1t is the only thing
in the world that will safely, surely, and
quickly restore the normal equilibrium
of a system upset by over much of
good time by the boys. 1t is pleasant to
take, perfectly harmless, and never fails,
even in the most hardened case. 1t has
none of the deletrous after-effects of
bromide and the other drugs usually ap-
| piled as nerve-soothers and constitutional
bracers. Another form of the same thing
| is the calm cocktail, and this also Is dis
pensed at the modifh bar.
There is only one objection to clam
! juice-that is the peculiar smile that goes
with it. Nobody ever orders boiled clam
| juice but man that needs it, and man
who needs clam juice is in condition to
| be irritated by knowing grin on a
walters face. If the clam juice hotel can
only arrange to have the stuff served by
cast-iron walters, the demand for it is
| bound to be immense.
