The eight-iuch gun.sheds for the steel
cruisers Boston and Atlanta have arrived at
the Brooklyn navy-yard. When they were
fitted to the guns on the Boston II was found
that the apertures were entirely too small,
aud they will have to be enlarged.
The shields were made at the Government
ordnsnce-foundry in Washington, and are
the first as yet turned out for eight-Inch
rifles. They differ considerably from those

the festure OF a hood which protects the

Twelve Years OF Litigation over Sf5
Worth or live Veal

A Waterloo Qowa) special to the Chicago
Tribune says: There appears TO be pros
rect for final settlement of the celebrated
Joaes.county calf case. One OF the attorneys
for the plaintiff was in the city today, and
stated that judge Lenehan, before whom
the last trial OF the case was had, was expect
ed to be here during the term OF court
which begins this week, and a motion
BY defendants will be argued before him
asking that Judgment be rendered against
plaintiff Of the special findings OF the jury
at the Inst trisl. These special findings, the
defence claim, are at variance With the gene
raj verdict. II this motion is oyerrued, AZ
the prosecution expect, It Il believed that
there will be no further litigation, and that
the last verdict OF 81 900 snd costs against
the defendants will be accepted by both par
tics.
The case has been in the courts since 1871,
and has been tried six times. The action
was for malicious prosecution. and at each
trial. with one exception, TIE plainiin se'
cured verdict ranging from $1,000 to
$500 The last trial was held In this coun-
" IN September last, and verdict Of $1,000
was rendered for the plaintiff. The value Of
the calves out Of which the suit grew was

Senate.
fBy Telegraph to tho Dlspatch.l

WASHINGTON. March 12.-ln the continued
absence OF the Vice.President Mr.. ingalls,
acted to-day. as syesterday, as presiding
officer pro teDl
Tbe message Of the President transmitting
the papers IN the case OF Louis Riel was pre-
sented and laid on the table.
After wait OF several minutes Mr. Ed
munds broke the stiffness by the statement
thst he bad been requested by Mr.. Platt to
sag that the gentlemen representing both
sides OF the chamber who bad in charge tue
recommendations for the committees OF the
Senate would be ready to call attention 70
the subject In very short time and 10 ask
the Senate to remain 10 session or to take a
short recess.
No motion for a recess was made, and the
Senate continued In session without any At
tempt 10 transact business.
At 1915 Ar. Plat asked and obtained
unanimous consent TO bsye suspended so
much OF the rules as require the standing
committees TO be elected by ballot and as re-
quire the election OF the Committee on Ex-
penditures OF Public Moneys, that commit
ice to be represented by one on "organiza-
ton, conduct. aud expenditures OF the exc
cutive departments"
MFR. Plstt then offered resolution (which
was a1reed to) for the election OF the stand
ing committees, a full list Of which was en-
bodied In the resolution.
Mr.. Plat next offered a resolution APP
pointing the select committees, the full list
to be named in like manner.
Mr.. Payne called attention to the select
committee on relations with Canada and
moved 20 strike 1t out OF the list.
Upon this motion long and interesting
debate arose.
Mr.. Payne said be regarded such an inyes.
tigatlon by the committee OF the Senate as
usurpstorv OF the functions OF the Executive.
He also looked upon the appointment OF
select committee on the subject as an inter-
ference With tue duties OF the Committee on
Foreign Relations.
MIR. Hosr explained that on account OF the
lsteness OF the long session and Of the poll
tlcal campaign which followed IT, the special
committee appointed at the first session OF
the last Congress on his motion had not
been able to discharge its duties, and there
fore It was decided 10 renew the appoint
ment. IL was useless, he said, TO
be blind to the fact tand no discretion
reonired silence Is TO ~ that there
was large and growing body OF men In
canada bat desired annexation TO the United
states. But nobody proposed 10 accomplish
n without the free and Intelligent and in-
strucscd will OF the people OF both countries.
So far from there being thought OF disre.
spect 10 the las, Executive In the originsl
sppo,ntmeut OF tho committee, the PROPOSE
tien bgd met with the hearty concurrence OF
the Democratic senators who were supposed
10 have been 10 the closest relstions OF con-
i;deusc with President Cleveland.
Mr.. CuiIom did not think there could be
too much investigation into the relations cx-
istIng {and 10 exist between The United
STATES and Canada. lie very much desired
that such inyestlgatlon and progress should
