GRAIN DEALING.
Action by Members OF tho City
Council Yesterday.

Council Yesterday.
Just before the meeting of the Board OF
Health in the Mayors office, number OF
the members OF the Council INDUCED in an
infor n al discussion of the Turf and Grain
Exchange" and, on motion of the Mayor,
which was supported by President Hum
phreys, City Attorney DAILY was instructed
to prepare an opinion to be sent in to the
Council at its next regular meeting, Mr..
Dunn, Assistant City Attorney, stated that
the affair was so run as to make it positively
in favor of the manipulatoIs of the m schine,
but as the operators guarantee the delivery
of the produce or grain at the prices quoted
on their put and call board, it would be
hard to reach them under the law. He
would see, however, that a written opinion
was prepared and submitted to the Council
on Monday.
Mr.. Humphreys said that in his opinion
the game was nothing more nor less than
the most tngeniously gotten up game he
greater in favor of the manipulation of the
machine than the buyer, and he thought
that there was little law behind 1t, so as
to protect 1t and act as blind. He be-
lieved that If anybody ''squealed," the firm
would deliver the grain, pork, or whatever
it might be-. to the purchaser in thirty
days, rather than cause trouble 1t had no
connection with any of the Eastern mar
kets but the firm set their prices on the
first of the month with the prices of the
Chicago market. In conclusion, he said
the game was as much ahead of faro as the
telephone was ahead of walking.

and also to convey to the pastor, Rev. w. w.
Tinker, and his wife, the congratulations of
the body to them on this, their tenth ami

The Rule OF Courtesy In Flag
DisplaYa.

EDITORS HERALD: Please answer the fol-
lowing question through your paper, to set
tie dispute. An Englishman residing in
this country desires to celebrate the Queens
birthday by display of the English colors.
What courtesy is due the American Flag in
such display? Would it be discourteous to
display the English colors and not the Amer
ican? If both flags are displayed on the
same staff which flag should be uppermost.
Would it be sufficiently courteous If two
stats are used to display the American col.
ors from one and the English from the
other? A general explanation of the rule
governing this matter will be thankfully re-
ceived by a subscriber. VIM. B. CRISP,
Sierra Madre, CAL, Feb. %, 1888.
1T would be proper at all times to display
both flags side by side. A Consul may dis
play his own country's flag alone; but pri
vate alien should recognize the propriety o.
the country in which he lives by displaying
its flag whenever he displays any. If botf
| flags are fioated from the same staff on az
American holiday, the American flag should
be on top, vice rersd when celebrating the
holiday OF foreign nation.-EDs. HERALD.

perate parents. 1t Is not surprising, then,
that so many women are to-day taking reg
ularly, during the period OF pregnancy,
Scotch Oats Essence, that great nervine. 1t
averts rights and terrers, counteracts the
evil effects OF impressions, assures healthy
offspring, and, best OF all, easy confinement
and abundant breast milk. The oat kernel
contains phOsphorous that not only makes
strong bones and healthy muscles, but
clear brains and steady nerves. 1t also
contains "Boskine" from the oatmeal husk
or bosk that relaxes the bowels gently and
prevents distressing morning nausea. Scotch
oats Essence contains, In concentrated form,
all the food, tonic, and medicinal properties
OF the best oats.
1t is fact now well recognized by physl-
clans that not only is Scotch oats Essence
an almost certain cure for commissions, ner-
vousness, fretting, &C., in children, and Is
largely taking the place OF soothing syrups
ana the like, but that mothers who use 1t,
both before and after confinement, have
plenty OF pure, rich milk, and their chill
dren are singularly free from nervous and

MISS MARIE BREGAZZI
Enchants Select Circle of Friends
with Her yocalization.

Enchants Select Circle of Friends
with Her yocalization.
A most delIghtfulinformal vocal treat was
afforded about forty invited musicians last
night by Miss Marie Bregazz! at the parlors
Of the Young Mems Christian Association.
Niles Bregazzi is pupil of the late Sig.
Barrili, and has but recently returned from
the Royal Conservatory OF Music In Milan,
where she studied under the world famed
Paulina Vaneri Filippi.
AT the urgent requests OF numerous
friends she consented to give to select
company an exhibition of her vocal powers,
and last night the promise was fulfilled In
a manner that was most pleasing to those
who were fortunate enough TO be invited.
Six selections were rendered and the ver-
satility Of remarkably fine soprano
voice was established beyond cayll. The
and the marvellous beauty OF that grand
composition was revealed as but few can
reveal 1t. This was followed by Harrison
Millard's "Waiting,n and the sympathetic
song was as charmingly sweet as pure,
full voice and perfect enunciation could
make It. Following these were Lavalee's
"Beautiful Girl of Rildare;" Meyerbeer's
lie Diablc; j. l.. Gilbert's "Bonnie Sweet
Bessie, the Flower of Dundee,n and, as a
concluding triumph, Meyerbeer's "Arla del
Sonno.n
Rapturous applause greeted each effort,
and simple justice demands the statement
that the applause was honestly earned.
Miss Brega2zls presence is good and her
style excellent The general public will
have an opportunity to judge for Itself In q
few weeks, when a concert will be given, at
which this gifted young Washingtonian
will be the stellar attraction.
Her songs last evening were accompanied
On the piano by Prof, William Waldecker,
and 70 his skill not little credit Is due.

MIR. BAYLEY's CONSUL SUIT.
Question OF Authority Between Two
Departments Settled.

The case OF the United States against
Sampson p. Bayley, jr., and others was
yesterday called for trial In the United
States district court, Judge Hughes presid-
Ing, In Alexandria, Va, District Attorney
j. Catlett Gibson appearing for the govern
ment and Mr.. j. V. Brooks, of Warrenton,
for the defendants. Mr.. Bayley, while
consul for the United States at Palermo,
Italy, after consulting the Secretary OF
State, and by authority obtained from that
official, expended $s46. CO In clerk hire, and
so charged the expenditure In his accounts.
When the first comptroller of the treasury
came to pass upon tho accounts he declined
to allow the expenditure on the ground
the authority of the State Department
given him to employ the clerk
and Its subsequent approval OF
the voucher did not iegalize the act. 1t
was further held that relief could only be
obtained through special act Of Congress.
AS the money had been paid by the consul
and the expenditure was disallowed at the
account short iust that amount. Believing
that be could. not he held liable, having
acted under the instructions OF the State
Department, he declined to comply with
the demand of the comptroller to pay over
the $s46 GO, and consequently suit was In
stituted to recover that amount with ia.
terest At the TRIAL yesterday the only
witnesses examined were Mr.. Z. j. Red
dick; acting chief Of the bureau OF the
foreign division of consuls, first comptrol-
ler's office, and DR.. F. o. Sinclair, chief Of
Tic eeBsuiar btireuti 6if he ssssata SepzrS:
ment. The testimony of the former was In
support Of the action which had been taken
in the Treasury Department, and that of the
latter to susts n the Department OF State In
the position il had assumed. This virtually
condensed matters, and reduced the ques.
| ton to one OF authority between the two
departments. The counsel did not deem 1t
necessary to make an argument, and agreed
TO submit the case to the jury on the charge
| Of the court.
Judge Hughes, 10 giving his instructions,
| said that in the case before them the Jury
had more power than tbs first comptroller,
and II was for them to say whether or not
the defendant should be made to pay out
OF his own means for clerk service for the
government, when that assistance was all-
| thorized by what had heretofore been ac-
knowledged as the power to give such au-
tbority.
The jury without leaving the box re.
turned a verdict for the defendant. Mr..
Bayley has received many congratulations
on the result.

Tho Fact About ButterIne.

There is certain cake baker In this city
one who takes particular pride in the quality
of his manufacture, and who really enjoys
i enViable reputation-whoh has been con.
tlnuous consumer OF butterine for some
months past. At first he was preiudiced
against It, because 1t was not the Simon
pure dairy product; but, after he saw that
the use of so.called "cOoking buttern was
having decidedly injurious effect upon
the standing of his goods, he was induced
To make trial OF butterlne, chiefly upon
the recommendation Of lady friend who
had been led to try It By reason OF its pub
llshtd praises. This baker, In conversation
with Billy Ford, said onyesterday:
81 admit was little backward at first
In trying butterlne, but that was only bs.
cause feared II was on par with other
manufactured articles. But heaven knows
had had trouble enough with poor butter,
and, after one of my customers had glvcu
me her experience with the article, cou-
cluded to try II. | am more than satisfied
For, apart from the saving In money, am
satisfied with the absolute reliability OF the
article"
W. c. Scrlbner Is the agent for butterlne,
and his stalls are In the Center, Eastern,
and Northern Liberty Markets.

DR.. II. q. Flower, OF Boston.

We understand that DR.. r. G. Flower, of
Boston, will be at the Hotel Windsor,
Trenton, N. J., Tuesday, JAM; 10; Carroll
ton House, Baltimere, Nd, Wednesday,
c., Thursday and Friday, Jan. l2 and l3,
where he may be consulted professionally.
This will afford an excellent opportunity
for the sick who wish to consult the dis
tiDguished Boston physician TO do so.
DR.. Flower, we understand, will be on
his way with his family to Florida, where
they will spend the winter In their palatal
tropical home on the st.John's river. The
doctor himselJ will return In few days to
his practice In Boston, which demands all
his time. But few men are as well known
In this country as DR.. Flower. His prac-
tice is said to be the largest Of any physi-
clan In the world, his patients numbering
thousands. He has In his employ the most
skilled physicians OF the country, also cleo
tricians and magnetists. One remarkable
feature In DR.. Flowers practice, as claimed
by his friends, is that he can tell anyone
his disease better than they eau
tell him and this without
asking them any QUESTION:. This is a great
claim to make for any one, hut our sick
readers will soon have the opportunity OF
demonstrating the correctness Of II, But
II this be true we see no reason why he
should not successfully treat and cure the
supposed incurables, whose diseases are not
ordinarily understood. DR.. Flower is
rapidly completing his health home or
sanataiium In Boston, which, II is said, will
be the most complete, perfect, and mag
nilicent health resort in North America.
1t is said In this sanatarlum every treat
ment In the known world IN which there is
any merit will be given; that the elaborate
bath departments will vie with the old
Alhambfian Bath Emporium OF Madrid,
The stopping OF DR.. Flower at the above
named places Is the result OF an earnest
effort on the part OF some Of his patients
aud friends, and though his stays are brief
they viii afford some OF his many admirers
all opportunity to consult with him.

A MoRE-AcTIvE MARKET.
several Bull Rumors Circulated and

Prices Advance.
New YORK, Jan. 5.-The stock market
was less active to-day, but was decidedly
strong and showed broadening tendency,
which has not been seen for long time.
The coal stocks and the grangers were again
the leaders OF the speculation, and In the
early morning the prevailing bullish feeling
was strengthened by reports that the Read
ing officials would arbitrate the question
with the miners, and general buying
movement was inaugurated, which ex-
tended to the general list. This was aided
by rumor that the more Influential bull
leaders had formed pool to twist the
shorts, which prevented further increase
In tho short interest and so restricted busi-
ness to very small limits.
The opening was quiet but steady, and
the market was firm from the first SALE
The market became barren Of feature be-
fore noon. After that time, however, there
was little more animation, and Quick.
silver preferred became the special feature.
Moet OF the list reached their highest points
at about p. m, after which the market
remained steady at the advance. The close
was quiet but firm at about the best prices
OF the day.
