Castle Gardens Death Blow.

Special to the Gazette.
New YORK. Feb. ga dispatch from
Washington received this afternoon an
nouuced that Secretary Window has
issued orders for the establishment Of
an emigrant landing depot on Bedloe'S
island, New York harbor, and arrange
ments will at once be made for the con-
struction OF necessary buildings. This
decision has been largely discounted, and
the selection of this island was a for G.
gone conclusion. Collector Erhardt and
others interested favored it, and it will
prove much more convenient for the
transfer of emigrants TO the trunk lines
for transportation west than would
Governors island which had also been
mentioned TO supercede Castle Garden.
Collector Erhardt returned yesterday
from Washington, but the secretary had
not at the time rendered his decision.
The former was asked to-day: els it
true that Mr.. Weber of Buffalo is to be
placed in charge as Federal commits
sioner?''
ellis name was mentioned, and he
may be chosen TO fill that position, but
nothing was decided on that question. I
do not know when the choice of an
official will be made

Correspondence Of the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2G.-As an in
stance of the way in which some Wash
ingtou correspondents draw upon their
lamentations for newspaper material, I
cite an item in the New York Sun of Sun
day to the effect that Mr.. ]. Stanley
Brown, formerly private secretary OF the
late President Garfield, and who recently
married Miss Garfield, lives in a large
and stylish house on Massachusetts ave-
nue., one of the most attractive boule-
wards of the city. The correspondent
also states that the residence is
"roomy, - built Of red brick with light
stone trimmings, and stands on the very
spot where the father of Stanley Brown
used to work in little shop at his trads
rs a carpenter. As soon as the big house
Is completed, Mr.. and Mrs. Brown
are coming here to live in their new
home, which is large enough
TO entertain all Washington in at one
time. - This is all very pretty, if there
was grain Of truth in il. But there is
not. ! have per sonally known Stanley
DIo"d toF nIteen years. he is self
made man, and was born OF poor
parents. After President Garfield 3
tragic death, Mr.. Brown went TO New
Haven and pursued course of scientific
studies at Yale college, after which he
went abroad to study geology and
mineralology. For the past three
years he has been connected with the
geological survey, and is looked upon as
one OF the rising Young scientists of the
Gay. His hCuse on Massachusetts avenue
IS probably the smallest residence on this
fashionable boulevard. 1t is two stories
IN height, and situated far back from the
Sidewalk, and, while cosy and conforta-
bic, makes & rather odd appearance be-
iue The mammoth structure across
the alieyway, which has re-
Gently been erected by Mr. NJ E. Morris,
a wealthy lawyer, and the surviving
partner of the successful firm of Merritt
& Morris. 1t is this house which the care
less correspondent OF the New York Sun
has gwen 20 Mr.. Brown. Mr.. and Mrs
Grown are deserveGly popular in Wash
inEtou society, where they are often
seen. They live modestly, but could not
comfortably entertain, if they would,
more than ty people at one time IN
their demure residence.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-Amos J.
Cummings in one of his characteristic
letters to the New York Sun photograph
ing the scenes in the house of representa-
tives, is authority for the following sling
at Mai. Martin, in writing of the recent
furry in the house over the action Of the
speaker in counting members for the
purpose of making a quorum:
''The scenes on the floor were well
worth Witnessing. At times both wings
or the house were in dire disorder.
Democrats were protesting defantly
against the rulings OF the speaker, and
in laundering tones demanding what
they deemed were their rights. The
Republicans were on their feet, laughing
derisively and bibbing them. Anon,
silver-haired Breckenridge, towering
Springer, silver-dollar Bland, or other
prominent Democrats would rush to the
arena and demand recognition. Some
would persist until they obtained 1t,
while others would give up in despair
aud drop into the nearest vacant seat.
Even ex-Speaker Carlisle was once
forced to mpve down the side isle to the
fronts seats pnd thrice ask for recogni-
ton before he received it. There
was intense excitement when Mr..
Bynum denounced the speakers
ruling as "arbitrary, outrageous and
damnable. - The Indianian was roaring
like n lion. Major Martin of Texas,
better known as "Old Howdy," was In
the speakers lobby cutting q plug of
tobacco He heard the roaring and
rushed upon the floor, plug and jack
knife in hand, just as Bynum uttered
the word ''damnable. - The arenn
was flied with members listening breath
lesslY to Bynum's speech. The major
throw back his long hair, shook the plug
and jackknifr in the face of the speaker
and reiterated the words, "Damnablel
in tones expressive of his
sense of the injury TO his party and to
his country.
For four days these scenes continued.
Gradually those " DO claimed that their
rights were tram pied under foot by the
decisions of the speaker, calmed down.
The fight was maintained. but in more
quiet manner. Each ruling was fol-
lowed by protest The Democrats OBJ
structed hnsiuess as far as they were al
lowed TO do so by the speaker,

NEW YORK, Feb. ga decision was
handed down to-day by Judge Beach in
the supreme court, part three, sustaining
a verdict recently rendered by jury In
favor Rev. Albert P. Miller, the coIored
clergyman of New Haven, Conn. who,
with his family was refused steteroom
accommodation in the steamer Drew of
the Peoples line to Albany. Judge
Beach, IN his opinion, says: 1.-The YER
diet must represent what the jury found
to be suitable compensation to the
plaintiff for violation of legal right and
for injury done to his feelings Al
though a verdict of $500 seems to
be more than adequate for
the plaintiffs compensation, it cannot
in my opinion be held excessive. Great
ing the belief that the jury was misled
by passion, prejudice or ignorance. -
He then quoted from similar cases in
other states, there being no precedent in
this state, where jures have awarded
from one hundred to one thousand dol
lars in similar cases.

IMPORTANT ORDER

Issuod by tho Interstate Commerce Conn
mission-Gr Carrying Rates From
Points West of the Mississippi TO Chicago
and st. Louis Reduced.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.--The Inter-
State Commerce Commission will issue
an order to-day, to take effect Septem-
ber 1, in regard to the reduction of rates
on grain products, based on it's recent
report to the Senate. This case is one
of the most important yet brought be-
fore tho commission, which has given it
precedence ovor the other cases. The
order is accompanied by the opinion of
the commission overruling the protest
/ and motions of the roads for want of
jurisdiction. The reductions made APP
ply only to corn, oats, wheat and flour
carried from Iowa, Missouri, Kansas and
Nebraska to Chicago, st. Louis and the
Mississippi river. The reduced rates are
from Missouri river to Chicago on corn
and oats-17 cents-and wheat and flour
90 cents per hundred pounds. From
Kansas and Nebraska points corn IS to
90 cents; wheat 81 cents. Reductions
extend 200 miles in Nebraska, and $50
miles in Kansas from the Missouri river.
Where rates are fractional the roads
may charge even cents, which consid
erably modifies the reductions.
No reductions arc required which will
leave the roads less than 615 mills per
ton per mile for hauls not longer than 500
miles, nor less than mills for any dis
tance.
As to rates east of the Mississippi the
commission says, "The rates from Chi
cago and from st. Louis and the Missis-
sippi river now charged on corn, oats,
wheat and flour to the eastern seaboard
are not found to be excessive. The
charges on other principal food prod
ucts between the Mississippi and the
seaboard are involved in pending COM
plants heard on petition and answer,
and therefore no order as to these rates
and charges will be now issued"

The PUBLIC DEBT.
A Small Reduction During the Past
Month-New Form of the Statement.


Month-Sew Form of the Statement.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-The monthly
debt statement for July was issued from
the Treasury Department yesterday in
a new form and shows a net reduction
in the public debt during the past
month amounting to S395, 257. The
bonded indebtedness, according to the
new form of statement, now amounts to
S100, 79S, $50, or decrease of $40, 513, ,750
during the past and first month of the
current fiscal year. The total debt to-
day, less cash in the treasury, is placed
at SS76, ,4S9, lib.
The treasury surplus, or available
cash balance, shown by the statement,
aggregates S127,214,119. This amount
includes S22, ,541,719 fractional silver
currency and minor coin; and S54,207,-
975 National bank redemption fund
placed in the treasury cash under the
sixth section of the Silver act which be-
came law last month, and which, of
course, did not appear as cash in the
debt statement heretofore issued. The
fractional silver coin and minor coin in
the treasury is now treated and consid-
cred as available cash, while under the
form adopted by Secretary Manning in
July, 1885, and in use since that time, it
was regarded as unavailable for the
reduction of the public debt"

MURoERoUS POLITICS.

Two Men Fatally Shot During an ARRAY
Caused by Betting on the Result of an
Election.
OGDEN, Utah, Aug. 4.-Political ex-
citement is running high in Ogden and
vicinity. AS result of the bitter feel
ing engendered, serious affray oc-
Cured Saturday in which G. e. Emer-
son, John Hamer, brother of the can
didate for county recorder, and James
Griffin were shot, Griffin and Hamer
fatally. The men met in a well-known
sporting resort where heavy bots wero
being made on the coming election.
Several thousand dollars had been
staked when a quarrel arose over a bet
that had been made. Griffin attempted
to shoot Washburn, an employe in the
county clerks office, but Hamer inter-
fered, when Griffin ehot him twice.
Griffin was shot in the abdomen, and
Emerson caught bullet in the foot.
No one knows who fired the last two
shots, but it is supposed to have been
the negro porter, who fired indiscrim-
inately into the crowd when the affray
commenced. He has been arrested.
