The President Makes a Change in she Routine of Business Hours-A British War Vessel to be Sent to Behring's Sea to Investigate the Seizure of Illegal Sealers-The Morgan Envelope Com.
 pany Awarded a Contract.
 WASHINGTON. D. O., May 20.-In order to
 have more time for the transaction of public
 business the President has decided upon cer-
 tain changes in the hours devoted to the re-
 ception of visitors on business. Commenc- ing with tomorrow the business receptions will begin at Il o'clock instead of 10, as heretofore, and on cabinet days (Tuesday and Friday will close at 12 o'clock promptly. On Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday, the receptions will last until 12:30 o'clock. The President will reserve Monday to himself and will receive no visitors on business except by Persons desiring to pay their will be received as usual at p. m. on Wednesday and Saturday. This plan, it is expected, will result in greater rapidity in the matter of appointments. The Presi- dents visitors to day were Secretaries Blaine
 sNoble, Postmaster-Gensral Wanamaksr, Asssz4ey General Miller, First Comptroller Matthews, Senator Farwell, District Conmis sionsr Douglass and Adjutant- General Drum.
 AAo POneiAonGol- SoAOAa2 AnS dWoAuSN tAo contracts for supplying the post office de- pertinent for the next fiscal year with regis tered package and other official envelopes to ! the Morgan Envelope company and the Plympton Manufacturing company, Spring field, Mass, at $95, 1889.
 Inquiry at the department of State, based upon the report from Ottawa that British war vessel is to be sent to Behring's sea to in- vestigate seizures of illegal sealers, elioited the fact that nothing has been done by this government in the matter since the issueo of the Presidents proclamation distinctly noti- flying all nations of the intention of the United States to protect the seal and fish fife from depreciation. It is presumed that the treasury department through the revenue marine will cary out the provisions of the laws. At present the only govern ment vessels in Alaskan waters are revenue cutters, but they will soon be reinforced by the man-of-war Thetis which is now at San Francisco preparing for summer cruise.

BIG CHECKS FOR BREWERS.
Ex.CongressnanJ y oaes' Pockets Heavy With English Money.

NEW YORK, May 20.-Two very large checks have reached this country from Eng land in part payment of the Jones Portsmouth breweries, which were sold some time ago to an English syndicate for $15, 100000. Last week Brown Brothers of this city received from London two checks amounting to $3,- 16S, ,432. These precious bits of paper wore handed over to MT. Samuel Muntermeyer of the firm of Guggenheimer & Untermeyer, who acted as attorneys and selling agents for Jones & Co.,, the former agents of the brew cries. From MT. Untermeyer's hands the checks passed into those of MT. Sinclair, of Jones, Cook & Co.,, who took them to Boston
 where they created nine days wonder.
 These checks, although very large for pri-
 vate parties, have been surpassed in amount
 by single check presented some years ago in Dublin. When Sir Arthur Guiness of the famous porter brewing firm was raised to the peerage he had to give up all connection with his breweries So he sold them to his brother and other partners in the concern. His share in cash amounted to $5.000,000 A check for this sum was presented one fine morning at the Bank of Ireland office in CollegeGreen, Dublin. The bank promptly confessed it's l inability to pay the amount and begged foI time. So the check was credited to Sir Ar thur Guiness' private account and he drew ii in instalments.

DIED WHILE BTHEK1zED.

SA@-A-A~A-@-A~s An Italian Dies Within an Hour After
 Surgical Operation.
 PHILADELPHIA, May 20.-Donati Fieri, aged 36 years, while ane5thetized by ether for the purpose of undergoing surgical op- eration, died in the Philadelphia hospital on Saturday.
 Fieri was suffering from disease of the hip joint, and about two weeks ago was an- ssthetized by ether to examine the joint and destroy some adhesions.
 No i'll effect from the ether was noticed, and the doctors subsequently decided that an incision of the hip joint was the only mesns of saving the patients life. The oper- ation was undertaken Saturday.
 In the course of over three.qusrters of an hour, it is said, nearly ten ounces of ether wes poured upon the towel held over the pa- tient's nose and mouth. Meanwhile the op- eration wes being performed.
 Then 1t wes evident that Fieri would die. Re Jpiration became slow and shallow, the pulse feeble and the face blanched. Every eHorS ws3 then made to restore him, but he expired in eight minutes. The patient had been in the hospital for three monSbs, but the doeto1I thought he wes strorg erough to undergo the opera- tion.
 Cle of the suTgeons connected with the osse says that, while death from shock under such circumstances is not rare, it is shown by statistics collected by Prof. Andrews re- lative to 92, 815 cf 1es of etherization in Euro pean f1d American hospitals, that there was only one death i-om the ether itself for every 23, ,2c4 csGss.

 OREGON ABANDONMENT A Compromise Arrived at by Which she Union Pacific WIIl Run the Road.
 NEW YORK, May 20.--The sensation caused by the sharp corner in Oregon Trans continental last week appeared to be grsd- ually dying out today but both parties to the contest for control kept the interest in it alive by their manipulation for the purpose of liquidation. It is generally believed that a compromise was arrived at Saturday by which the Union Pacific will continue to pay six per cent. dividends on Oregon Naviga- tion stock and retain control of the road. This eliminates all the bitterness from the cleo tion and leaves nothing for the Willard party to fight for. Over S10,000,0 900, however, has been tied up in the stock and the brokers for both sides have joined in working the market for chance to unload. With this end in view they absorbed several thousand shares which arrived by steamer from Europe and bid three to four per cent. more for the cesh stock than it was offered In the regular way. The short interest has been all covered and no demand whatever appeared except from the brokers of the two factions.
