J0E'S HAPPY DAY.
Birmingham Welcomes Chamberlain and
His Wife-Warm Words for America.

BIRMINGHAM, January S.-The Right
Honorable Joseph Chamberlain and his
bride were given a most cordial greeting by
the people of Birmingham tonight. The
reception to the distinguished couple was
held in the town hall, which had
a salon and beautifully decorated
with artistic groups of ferns and
orchids and other plants. The gathering
was a large and representative one. Until
the arrival of the guests of the evening the
time was occupied in listening to a concert
and viewing the presents intended for the
bride, for which the citizens of Birmingham
had subscribed 200.
The entrance of Mr.. and Mrs. Chamber
lain, who were accompanied by Mr.. Cham
berlain's sons and daughter, Lady Mande-
vile and others, was the signal
for great cheering, which was again
and again renewed, the organist
meanwhile playing a wedding march.
Handsome bouquets were presented to Mrs.
Chamberlain, who was greatly pleased at
the heartiness Of the reception, and re-
peatedly bowed her acknowledgements. The
bride was dressed in pink satin, and her or
naments were diamonds and sapphires.
The presentation of the wedding gifts and
accompanying addresses followed. The
gifts consisted of a pearl necklet with a
diamond clasp from the citizens, and a
brilliant diamond brooch, containing 55
gems, in the shape of a six-pointed star, the
gift of the women of Birmingham.
Mr.. Chamberlain, in replying to the adj
dresses, said that they surpassed his ex-
pectations in the warmth of their greeting
to his wife. whose ancestors left England
over $50 years ago. ICheers. Although he
neither hoped nor expected to lessen her
love for the country of her birth, he knew
that she was prepared to take up life among
them in all its fullness, and that she would
say with Ruth: ''Thy people shall be
nv people," [Cheers. Referring to the
feeling of kinship with America, expressed
in the address just presented, he said that
that was no new feeling in Birmingham.
At the time of Americas greatest trial-the
crisis of the Union-the eloquent voice of
John Bright, now unfortunately hushed for
a time by illness, was raised again and
again in that very hall to defend the
integrity of the Republic. The
same feeling permeated the whole country.
1t was now admitted on all hands that a
serious quarrel with America would be the
greatest national calamity. [Cheers. Diff
ferences were certain to arise from time to
time, but the democracies of both countries
were determined that they should be annie
ably arranged. He was glad to say
that even that august body, the
United States Senate, had nothing to say
about his private negotiations which his
hearers had just ratified by their presence.
He again rendered his own and his wife's
heartfelt thanks for the kindly reception
and beautiful gifts.

CHARLESTON, S. c., January S.-Pierre
Lorillard's floating stable and kennel was
successfully launched here to-day. 1t is a
unique naval structure, built after designs
made by himself at Pregnall's shipyard, in
this city. 1t is 40 feet long, Is feet
wide, and draws only 2 feet of
water. The hull is sloop-modeled, with
fiat bottom. 1t is provided with a rudder,
but no propelling apparatus, the intention
being to tow it behind the Reva, Mr.. Loril-
lard's yacht. The main deck is housed in
with a stable with stalls for four horses.
There are also cabin accommodations for
stablemen, and a spacious and comfortable
dog kennel.
Above the cabin is a spacious quarter
deck, rallied, from which the sportsmen may
take a passing shot at the alligators. There
is also a hoisting apparatus for the gang
plank. Everything, in fact, is constructed
to afford the utmost convenience. With
this vessel, Mr.. Lorillard and his friends
can navigate to many parts of the coast
which nave hitherto been comparatively in
accessible to sportsmen, and which are team
ing with game and fish.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.1
WASHINGTON, January S.-After the
expenditure of four days in useless fill
clustering ever the effort 10 change a rule,
the House to-day recommitted the PROPOSE
ton to the Committee OH Rules, from which
it originated. The object of the change
proposed was to prevent the opponents of
various bills, notably the Pacific Railroad
funding bill and the bill to create the Ter
ritory of Oklahama, from wasting the whole
of suspension Mondays by the introduction
and enforced reading OF useless bills. Four
days have been spent and a Democratic
caucus has been held trying to effect this
purpose, and now the House is in the sam
position as it was before.
The condition of those bills has not been
advanced a step. When suspension day
comes around again the flibusterers can
flibuster to their hearts content. It is
true the Democrats who were present at the
caucus last night may not participate in
this flibustering, but even if all the Demo-
Gratis bow to the will of the caucus, Messrs.
Anderson. of Iowa, and Anderson, Of Kan
sas, two Republicans, still remain to carry
on the fight. There seems, therefore, to be
no chance of either one of those two bills
becoming a law at this session.

WHY ARTHUR RESIGNS.
The Chief of the Brotherhood of Engineers
Has Had Two Disputes With the
Organization He's Headed
So Long.


ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.1
CHICAGO, January S.-The report from
Cleveland that Chief Master Arthur, of the
Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers, in
tends to resign the Office he has held for
nearly II years, seems to be well-founded.
The first dispute between MI. Arthur and
the brotherhood occurred at the Chicago
Convention in 1887, when he strongly rec
commended in his report the continuance of
the graded system of payment for engineers,
and the convention, under the lead of the
Western engineers, who were mostly new
men. defeated this measure and adopted the
rules which demanded the same rate of pay
for ar engineer who has served one year as
for one who was an accomplished mechanic.
1t was expected at that time that Mr.. Ar
thur would resign, but his friends induced
him to reconsider his intention, and he was
reelected without opposition.
1t is also a well-known fact that Mr.. Ar
thur was opposed to the manner In which
the Burlington strike was ordered. Instead
of waiting for the arrival OF President Per-
kins from Boston, after their conferences
with General Manager Stone had failed,
and after Mr.. Perkins had announced that
he would come to Chicago and hear what
the men had to say, the Grievance Commit
tee of engineers and fremen, headed by
Hoge and Hanrahan, ordered a strike at
once. Mr.. Arthur and Mr.. Perkins reached
Chicago the same day, but when a confer
ence was asked for Mr.. Perkins announced
that the men were already on strike, and
therefore could only be treated as ex-em-
ployes of the road. Failing to adjust the
difficulties, Mr.. Arthur at last reluctantly
approved of the strike, and thus the strikers
were enabled to draw their pay from the
working members of the brotherhood.
These are the reasons which are believed
to have led Mr.. Arthur to contemplate sever
ing his connection with the organization.
As soon as his successor is appointed he will
be placed in charge of the magazine pub
lished by the engineers at Cleveland.

LOTS OF GRAIN TO THRESH.
The SmaIls- Elliott ConIesttoL Lead to Long
and Warm Debate.


ESPECIAL EGR TO THE pIsPATcH.l
| WASHINGTON, January San attempt
was made this afternoon in the House to get
up for consideration the last of the contested
election cases, in which Mr.. Smalls, a col
ored man, and ex-member of Congress, is
contesting the seat of Mr.. Elliott, of South
Carolina. Owing to the flibustering tao
tics of Nh. Weaver, of Iowa, who says he
is determined nothing should be done until
the Oklahoma bill has been considered, the
attempt was unsuccessful, but the case is in
such a position that it is the first order of
business tomorrow, and the debate upon it
will then begin unless Mr.. Weaver renews
his exhibition of one-man power. The case
of Smalls-E Elliott is one which has attracted
a deal of interest and the discussion upon it
will be listened to with more than ordinary
attention. Its salient features have already
been discussed in these dispatches and it
is unnecessary to again allude to them
here.
From the fact that Mr.. Smalls is a negro,

Several of the Southern Democrats in antic-
ipation of the coming fight on this case,
nave been preparing themselves to defend
their section, their election methods, and
their colleague, Mr.. Elliott. Knowing that
the negro question would take an important
place in the debate, these Southerners have
been collecting data on that problem, and
their speeches will consequently contain a
great deal of information pertinent to a
subject which is of considerable current
moment.

WASHINGTON, January 8.-The Wash

never was a lawyer, but only an honest

the country.

these six ask for Blaine as Secretary of
State. Golf has four calls also for a place;
