CONGRE SIGNAL.
IN THE SENATE


WASHINGTON, March 29th.-The Senate con.
vened at the usual hour.
After twenty minutes devoted TO the introduc-
ton OF bills, DOlph took the floor to reply to
Voorhees, "BelshaZZar's Feast speech. His
reply was a most able one and was listened to
attentively by a large majority of the Senate.
He based his reply on pro ection versus free
trade, and showed that the country had decided
in favor of the former by electing Republican
President and the House of Representatives and
largely increased the Republican majority in
the senate He denied that protection was the
cause of depression among the farmers and
claimed tariff bill would pass this Congress
and it would be based on the lines of protection.
tThe speech of voorhees, was made on the 10th
instant, in support of his preamble and resolu-
tion setting forth the deep and widespread de-
preston and decay of the agricultural interests
of the American people, the enormous and ap-
palling amount of mortgage Indebtedness on
agricultural lands. the total failure of home
markets to furnish remuneTative prices for farm
products, and that there is palpable scarcity
and insuffciency of money in circulation in the
hands of the people with which to transact the
business of the country, and effect the ex-
changes OF property at fair rates; that these are
circumstances Of most overwhelming import
ance to the safety and we'll being of the Gov
ernment; therefore it is the highest duty of
Congress in the present crisis to lay aside all
discussion and consideration of mere party
issues and give prompt anG immediate atlen-
tion to the preparation and adoption of such
measures as are required for the relief of the
farmers and other over-taXed people and under
paid laborers of the United States
Senator Allen presented a bill allowing Edwin
C. Richardson TO take water from SiusIaw river
during the season of melting snow, and store in
a reservoir for future use.
The Senator has also introduced bill appru-
priating S1O0, goo to purchase site for dock
and navy yard on Puget Sound, and authorizing
a Commission of army officers to select site.

WASHINGTON. March 29th.-The House to-day
took up and passed several public building bills.
Reports were made favoring life-saving sta
tons on Tillamook Bay and at the mouth OF the
Siuslaw river, Oregon.
Thomas introduced a bill to insure the purity
of elections in Arizona. 1t simply applies the

PLANTATIONS FLOODED.
Garden Spots in Louisiana Ruined by the
Flood


'GRRENvILLE Miss, March 29th.-The
storm of Thursday drove the waters OF the
swollen Mississippi over the levee and
caused great crevasses where the embank-
ment was heretofore thought to be secure.
Breaks are reported at Easton's levee.
half mile above Mound Landing. and a
mile and half below Huntington on the
Timber Lake plantation. The overflow OF
water from these places will inundate a
large section of country before it reaches
the 1azoo river, again to join the great
river, leaving desolation and ruin in these
parts, and submerging the garden spot OF
the Iazoo delta and entirely suspending
railway travel from the Landing TO Rolling
Fork
The water from the Huntington break
will DIN the outpour from the 0futt break,
which will inundate a large section of
country. These waters will swell its vol
ume, bearing to the west against Green
vile and that portion of country spread
ing ont toward Williams Bayou on the
east and no doubt will blend with the
waters from the eastern break, making a
perfect sea of water from here to Bayou
Phalis and perhaps overfiowing the east
banks of that stream.
q Theiunotion of waters from these streams
will inundate all the plantations in Wash
ipgton county in its entire length and
breadth, until Sharkey and Issaquenna
counties are reached, then connecting with
the outpopr from the Skipwitb break, over
flowing everything in its track until the
Yazoo river is reached.
The damage this flood will do to the
plantations, stock, fences, houses, stores,
towns and railways is beyond calculation.
The crops will all be late, and in many
cases it may not be possible to plant at all.
The latest from the Easton break states
that it is now 600 feet wide and increasing
rapidly. The water crossed to the west
bank of Williams Bayou at Avondale, and
is six feet deep in stores in that place.

Important Meeting of Railroad Officials
Strange Disappearance.
PORTLAND (Or.), March 29th.-William
age, who has been stopping at the Mer-
chants Hotel in this city, is wanted for
forgery, having passed forged checks bear
ing the signature of E. b. Hunting & Co..
of Baltimore, Md, on Mayor Delashmutr,
and Tom Sutherland, of the Weekly Vel
come, and saloon man named Murphy.
Hurd Is supposed to have skipped last
night for Canada The total amount he
secured is about 500. He is well connected
| in the East, and has mother now visiting
Europe who is reported to be quite wealthy.
Fred. Silcock, clerk in the First Ma
tional Bank in this city, has suddenly dis
appeared. He left the bank about 8
o'clock Thursday night to go to Knights
since. Foul play is feared, as Silcock's ac-
counts are all right and he was most
trustworthy man in the bank, and there
seems to be no motive for his leaving so
suddenly.
This morning an important meeting of
the officials of the Union Pacific, Southern
Pacific and Northern Pacific Railroad CON-
panies was convened. The principal sub
ject of discussion was the terminal union
depot at Portland. The matter of the con-
struction of Union Pacific line from here
to Seattle and other points on the Sound
was not discussed.
Mr.. Holcomb was shown a dispatch re-
ceived from San Francisco this morning to
the effect that the new Japan steamer, in
stead of plying between the Orient and
Portland, would make San Francisco its
Western terminus. The dispatch stated
that Mr.. Mollen of the Union Pacific had
made overtures to General Traffic Manager
Hannaford of the Northern Pacific to the
effect that if the Northern Pacific ceased its
endeavors to get steamship service at Ta.
coma and give the Union Pacific track
privileges over its lines between Portland
and Tacoma, the Portland transpacific
service would be abolished by transferring
it to San Francisco. II know nothing of
the matter" said Mr.. Holcomb. mo such
overtures have been made, to my knowl.
edge"
1t is understood that after the depot
question was disposed of the Union and
Northern people held a meeting to make
arrangements between their respective
lines regarding the transportation from
Portland to Puget Sound.

San FRANCISCO, March 29th.-The ex-
tremely unfavorable condition of the
weather to day acteG as damper upon all
operations between the strikers and the
founders, and matters continue without
change from yesterday.
A little excitement was manifested this
morning when dray-load of patterns was
seen on the way to the Broadway wharf
Four or five of the strikers immediately
followed the dray, and had the satisfaction
of seeing the patterns uuloaded and learn,
ing that they were consigned to San Diego
presumably to the Coronado Foundry al
that place. This foundry is said not to bs
union concern, though some union mer
are at work there, so il does not seem as
though the efforts of the strikers to close
it would be etfectusl.
The coming of those Eastern molders re-
mains deep, dark and impenetrable mys
terry. The strikers are all at sea upon the
subject, and know but little more to-day
than they did week ago. They have
about come to the conclusion that these
men are coming in small squads, and are
keeping watchful lookout for the pres

tary Tracy's House.
WASHINGTON, March 29th.-The New
York Star this morning printed story to
the effect that the originator of the Tracy
fire had been discovered in the person of
Bridget Sweeney, the old Irish servant of
the family. The Star says that there are
well sustained rumors that Bridget Sweeney
has confessed that early on the morning of
the disaster she poured coal oil over the
dining-room paneling and as far up the
stairs as her stock of oil would go, and that
she then lighted the parlor gas, and lighted
the coal oil, and started at once for church.
When the fire. bells rang out, ii is stated
she was just entering the church, and ex-
claimed, without having any intimation of
the reason for the alarm, My God, that's
our house"
The Star stated that ever since the fire
Bridget has been kept under surveillance
by the police, and has been under such
surveillance since she went to Brooklyn.
The story is generally discredited here.
Mr.. Raymond, the private secretary to Mr.
Tracy, who is now in Brooklyn, says that
he does not think there is anything in it,
and that Bridget has been living for some
time with Mrs, Graver, niece of the Sec-
retary, in New York.
Lieutenant Mason, the Secretary's naval
secretary, said: THAT story has been
brought out before. do not think there
Is any truth in it. Bridget is about half
witted, and after the fire she made all sorts
of statements, being almost crazed by the
calamity. She was paid off shortly after
the fire, and went at once to New York,
and has since then been out of the Secre-
tary's service. l do not know ANYTHING
concerning her present Whereabouts

the climate of ASIA is becoming colder
than it formerly was, and its tropical ami
mails and plants are retreating south at a
slow rate. In high antiquity the elephant
and rhinoceros were known to the Chi
nese, who had names for them, and their
hides and horns were valued. When, two
centuries before the Christian era, they
conquered Cochin-China and Cambodia
the name Of the prefecture most to the
south was the Elephant Prefecture" and
afterward Elephant Forest" For some
centuries elephants were sent as presents
by the King of Cochin-China to Pekin to
supply the Emperor with the most noble
kind of draught animals, but now the
climate is too cold for the animal to re-
tain his health and perform his duties.
