to the eastern sky. which was quickly swallowed up
 Unfortunately clouds were "agin" any successful efforts to view the conjunction and the astronomer at 5:20 gave up the ef- fort in despair.
 Here in New Haven, at Yale, the conjunc- tion was observed by W. L. Elkins at Yale observatory. MT. Moore of the sophomore class is also recorded as having witnessed 1t. Another account says: "The conjunction was closer than that of 1879 and 1877. About 5 o'clock the two planets were visible to the naked eye just above the eastern horizon, and appeared like two shining points of light. The rings of Saturn point ed towards Mars, and the leaden hue of the former, together with the fire red light of the latter, were strongly contracted with the pure white light of the fixed star Regulus, near which the conjunction took place. Above the stars hung a heavy dark cloud, and this, together with the morning twilight, added oonsidera- bly to the beauty of the event. The interest in this conjunction Is enhanced by the cir- cumstsnce that another planet, Venus, will pass near Regulus on the 25th, and will come into conjunction with Saturn and Mars in the following week. It is doubtful whether dur ing the last 5000 years any time can be found where- such special combinations of coniunctions have occurred.
 Astronomers, as rule, pay very little at tention to these conjunctions, considering them of no astronomical value, and interest," ing only as beautiful phenomenon to wit ness through Q telescope"

 and dropped over per cent. The general list after

WASHINGTON. Feb. 26.-As experience
showed there was little chance for bust
ness before IL O'Clock, but few members
were present when the house opened at
10 O'Clock. Several messages from the
president vetoing pension bills were read
and on motion of Joseph of New Mexico
a bill was passed for the establishment of
Lincoln land district in New Mexico.
Then the flibustering began. Bland of
Missouri moved for half an hour recess;
Randall asked unanimous consent for the
report from the appropriations commit
tee on the sundry civil bill with the senate
amendments, but was aggrieved at the
notification of the special order, Hills of
California, whose name stands high on
the list of re%cognitions, objected and the
house relapsed into inaction. Eleven
o'clock having arrived Bland withdrew
his motion and Randall reported the sun
dry civil bill.
The recommendations of the committee
on appropriations relative to the senate
amendments were agreed to and a confer
ence ordered. No effort was made to call
up the contested election case, and the
house went into committee on the def
cheney appropriation bill.
Alter the kouse went into committee on
the deficiency bill Sayers of Texas read a
letter Scott of Pennsylvania received from
Col. Lamont stating that when he ac-
cepted the position of private secretary to
the president he had full knowledge of
the pay attaching to it. He preferred
not to be a beneficiary OF retroactive legis,
%lation, and he therefore asked that the
committee recede from its amendment
appropriating $1,000 for his benefit. The
committee then rose and the bill was
passed, the Lamont amendment being
eliminated. The conference report on the
pension appropriation bill was presented
and agreed to and the house went into
committee of the whole on the Indian
appropriation bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.-Dolph from
the committee IN public lands reported

and Charles II. Chamberlain of Califor.
MIA, with the recommendation that the
bill pass Notwithstanding the objections
of the president. Dolph made explana-
ton of the facts. claiming that the presi.
dents objections were made under his ap-
p%rehension that the bill is to reimburse
parties formerly register and receiver OF
the land office in California for clerk hire
paid by them. Tie vote resulted yeas
As, nays 8. Two-thirds having voted in
the affirmative the bill was passed.
The senate then resumed consideration
OF the army appropriation bill. Stewart
offered an amendment, which was agreed
to, appropriating SlS7, 500 for the pur.
chase of three pneumatic dynamite guns
of fifteen inch calibre ready for use on
the Pacific coast. A number of other
other amendments of minor importance
were agreed to and the bill passed.
The senate then proceeded to the con
sideratlon Of bills on the calendar unob-
jected to.
The house amendment reducing the
pension to the widow of Gen. Fitzpatrick
to $T5 a month was agreed to. After the
disposition of several unimportant meas
ures the senate went into executive ses-
sion and soon adjourned.
