who have very slight acquaintance with
the red faces.
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The Fire Department brought up the
rear, closing the line of the parade. The
Fire Commissioners had issued an order
for the regular ssmi-annual inspection
Of the department at A. NJ. and so it
suited admirably to close up the inspec-
ton with parade. After the inspection,
about 800 o'clock, the department,
beaded by Lee Camp Drum Corps,
moved by way of Tenth and Leigh to
Fifth and Broad streets. where the line
waited for the column, and upon its ar
rival took position on its left. Fire
Commissioners Frischkorn (president OF
the board, Boswell, Harwood, and Levy
occupied seats in carriage heading the
line, followed in order by the Fire
Alarm Department wagon, with Super
intendent Thompson and his force,
Chief-Engineer Fuller and his assistants,

GOING TO LEAD.
THE MARYLAND SENATOR GOES TO
NEW YORK,

WASHINGTON, October 11.-[Special. Sen
ator German went to New York last night to
attend meeting of the national campaign
committee. 1t is not probable that he will
again return 10 Washington until after the
election. There has been very strong
pressure from democrats of late to persuade
! him to give his undivided attention to the cam
| yass from now until it shall close, and
he will probably consent. = Senator
| German is undoubtedly the shrewdest political
manager in the party, and democrats feel con-
| fdent that he will repeat his successful work
of 1884. He will not succeed MIR. Brice as
chairman of the campaign committee, as the
republican papers are claiming, but will
only lend his efforts and advice to
the committee, which, however, will
be similar to his being at the helm.
The option on the Post, which was recently
purchased by Mr.. w. H. Smith, of the Asso-
ciated Press, and others, has been withdrawn,
and the paper goes back into the hands of Mir.
Stilson Hutchens. 1t will probably continue
as an independent paper, and will lean to
late.
Major and Mrs. Barnes and Miss Addie left
for Augusta tonight. Miss Ella is with friends
in Pittsburg, whore she will remain a week
longer.
THE QUESTION OF ADJOURNMENT.
There were only twenty-seven senators in
the city today. Two of them left tonight and
BY Monday there will be only about twenty
left. Despite the pending tariff bill there is
an air of listlessness about the senate pro-
ceedings. Tho sessions seems to drag, the
galleries are almost deserted great portion of
the time. Now and then q group, usually
strangers in the city, drop in, but few of them
remain long. The question asked by every
one is: when will congress adjourn?" The
belief that adjournment will be reached soon
is general.
The house was not in session today. Both
Mr. Kilgore and Mr.. Taylor still declare that
no more business shall be transacted this ses-
sion, and the house will do nothing more than
to enact the daily farce of meeting and adjourn
ing. Today General Clark, clerk of the house
OF representatives. has been comforting, on be-
half of the majority in the house, with Senator
Allison and other republicans of the senate
about adjournment. General Clark said the
house would take she responsibility of origi-
mating the resolutions, and members
OF the house were in favor of
fixing the time for adjournment for
Saturday of next week or Monday of the
week after. He asked the senators which
they would prefer. The sentiment in the sem
ate was favorable to an adjournment one week
from next Saturday. General Clark says the
house will probably pass the resolution to ad-
journ Wednesday or Thursday, and that the
senate will concur. The only difficulty now in
the way is the possibility of some member of
the house calling "no quorum on the resolu-
ton. Mr.. Oates, of Alabama, says he will de-
manda democratic caucus on it, and it is feared
there will be a wrangle and failure to agree
on that.
