resolution was passed authorizing the
marshal of the supreme court to loan
the portraits of the chief justices to
the New York state bar associetion
for exhibition at the Judiciary CEN
tennary to be held on Feb. 4. 1890.
Mr.. Butler gave notice that he would
address the senate next THURSDAY on
the subject of his bill for the emigra-
ton of eolored people, and Mr.. Pasco
gave like notice for the same dav, his
remarks TO be on the subject of federal
elections. On motion of Mr.. Frye the
select committee on the Pacific rail-
ways was increased to nine members.

ing at the port of New York the laws
regulating immigration. A bill was
passed authorizing railroad bridge
across the Missouri river, between the
county OF Douglass or Sarpy in Ne
braska, and the county of Pottowatto-
mie in Iowa. Mr.. Plumb addressed
the senate on his resolution
heretofore offered respecting the
lease Of the Islands of st. Paul
and st. George to the Alaska CONNER
cial company and requesting the secre-
tary of the treasury not to make a fur
ther lease of such islands until further
action by congress or until the latest
period made necessary by existing law,
and meanwhile to make full report as
to the manner In which the Alaska
Commercial company has discharged it's
obligations under the present lease. MI.
Plumb argued that the time for putting
in bids under Secretary Windom's ad-
vertiSement was far too short. The
Alaska Commercial company was on
the ground and no bids would be made
by anybody else; besides the lease was
for too long period.
MIR. Dawes favored the adoption of
the resolution, as the monopoly enjoyed
on the islands by the Alaska CONNER
cial company made it impossible for
any one else to maintain trading post
or engage in business relations with
the indians on the islands. After
further discussion the resolution from
the house announcing the death of Rep
resentative W. ID. Kelley was allied up
by Senator Morrill,. and as an additional
mark OF respect to the memory of the
deceased, the senate at S:35 p. m. ad-
journed.

BISMARCK, N. D., Jan. 13.-An at

not stand. However this may be, the

EAU CLAIRE. Wis, Jan. 13.-This
section few weeks ago was flooded
with circulars to Grand Army posts
from a Mrs. Jennie Wells, of Yell
county, Ark, who wanted money to
help clear her husband, an ex-Union
soldier. who she claimed was unjustly
convicted of murder. The same circu-
lars were sent to Grand Army posts all
over the Northwest, and were followed
in some places by letters from Mrs.
Wells. A good deal of money was sent
to her by old soldiers. Now comes a
letter from the Arkansas department
headquarters stating that the circular
and letters were not written by Mrs.
Wells, who is unable to write her own
name: that the scheme was cOncocted
by sharp lawyer, Wells attorney, one
j. P. Byers. of Yell county. for the pur-
pose of gathering in funds; that Byers
wrote the circular and his wife thepa-
thetic letters signed Mrs. Wells, and
denouncing the whole affair as a hum
bug. Old soldiers who have contributed
are disgusted at their own credulity.
