The crowd last light was almost as great as

nice weather and warm atmosphere, the peo-
lie never seem to tire of the display.
Last night was Dallas night; After the scenic
features had been given with all regard for
finish and detail. and after grim Vesuvius had
poured forth frey destruction upon
Mayor Counor OF Dallas was given in fireworks.
The likeness was complete, and anyone who
had ever known Bud" Conner would have
recognized him in the representation made by
the Pompeii people.

:he managers announce that something
very grand and startling and sur
prise TO everybody may be expected. Every
body of course will want to know what the sur
prise is in store, for there appears to be no end
to Pains originality.

GREED TO BE PUNISHED.
A Law to Make Steamers Carry Life
Guns to be Repealed.

A Law TO Make steamers Carry Life
Guns to be Repealed.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-In the Senate
to-day Mr.. Frye. from the committee on
commerce, reported the bill to repeal the
law of the last congress, requiring steam
ships to carry guns and rockets for casting
lines in case of distress, and stated the rea-
son for the passage of the bill in order ''that
the greed of certain companies might re-
ceive notice." The statement was to
the effect that the Lyle Gun Company
furnished to the life saving stations
guns at SS7 so, the Hunt Gun Company guns
at $o7 25, and the Cunningham Rocket Com
pauy rockets at $50, but that after the en-
actment of the law steamships were re-
quired to pay $400 for a Lyle gun, $3.50 for a
Hunt gun and 800 for rockets. The commit
tee on commerce had considered the matter,
and now recommended the repeal of the
law.
MIR. Cockrell-The bill should be passed
this morning
Mr.. Frye-I do not care to have it passed
this morning. Let it 60 on the calendar.
Mr.. Cockrell-Let it be passed now.
Mr.. Frye-Ishall be very happy 10 have
it passed now.
Mr.. Hoar suggested that it would be
better to let the matter stand for a day or
two, as there might be something to be said
on the other side. The bill was placed on
the calendar.

D0LPH STILL In THEDARK
"A NEWSPAPER MAN WHO FAILED
TO TURN INFORMER.

The Committee Thought George a.
Harries Was Going to Let the Cat
Out of the Secretary HaIford
and Clerk Pruden Among the Days
Witnesses.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-This afternoon
Senator Dolph's investigating committee,
having finished questioning the senator's and
employees as to their completely, if any, in
the previous publication of executive session
proceedings, began an inquiry relating to
the premature publication of treaties.
By request Private Secretary Hal
ford and Executive Clerk Pruden
of the white house, and Messrs.
Cridler. Philip and Taylor of the diplomatic
bureau of the state department appeared
before the committee. The first two were
questioned merely as to the method of
transmitting messages from the white house
TO the capitol, and the latter as to their
knowledge of the manner in which copies of
certain treaties reached the press in advance
of toe action thereon by the Senate. They
could tell the committee nothing respecting
these publications.
LOOKED UPON AS AN INFORMER.
George 81. Harries of the Washington
Star was called. Sergeant-at-Arms Can
ady had told the committee, so they under
stood, that if immunity were granted him
he would give away three members of it.
When Senator Dolph approached Mr. Har-
ries to administer the oath, the lat
ter expressed his unwillingness to be
sworn until satisfied that the commit
tee had been regularly and duly
constituted; :; he had ,she, said, read the pro-
ceedings of the Senate with great care, and
had observed no motion whatever OF the
appointment of such committee. The
resolution, passed in secret session authoriz-
ing the committee to make the investiga-
tion was shown to Mr.. Harrles, which he
said was perfectly satisfactory, although
it did seem to be betrayal of executive
session matters by the committee and he
was sworn.
DENIED HAVING MADE THE STATEMENT.
He denied having made such a statement
as was imputed to him by Mr.. Canaday,
either in the latter's presence or elsewhere.
When the members of the committee,
headed by the chairman, assured the witness
of perfect immunity if he would tell
whether or not any of them, not intending
the question to refer to any other senator,
had ever given him information respecting
secret session proceedings, Mr.. Harries
declined to answer.
After he had retired Mr.. Canaday was
recalled and testified that the committee
had misunderstood him in the first instance.
D. S. Barry of the New York Sun had told
him, he said. of MIR. Harries' willingness to
testify.
Mr.. Barry was then summoned, but he
| could not recollect any such conversation,
and added nothing to the committees stock
| of knowledge on the subject, How does
executive session matter become public

ENGLAND's PARLIAMENT.
Estimates for War Ships-The Out
RACES In Siberia.

LONDON, March 13.-In the House of
Commons tonight Lord George Hamilton,
first lord Of the admiralty, said that the
estimates for the building of war ships for
the coming financial year were R6, ,4S6, 900.
This sum was exclusive OF the estimates for
armament, which amounted to 81. 200, 900.
Samuel Smith, member for Flintshire,
liberal, asked whether the government had
seen the printed reports of oruelties inflicted
upon political prisoners In Siberia and
whether it would ask the British ambas-
sador at st. Petersburg to direct the atten-
tion of the Russian government to the
matter. W. Fl. Smith, the government
leader, replied that the government had no
means Of ascertaining II there was any
truth in the reports, nor had 1t the power
to approach the Russian government on the
subject.
In committee of supply Gen. Sir e. B.
Hambley, conservative, moved to increase
the grant for the volunteer service so as to
meet the deficiencies In the equipments.
The motion was opposed by Mr.. Goschen,
chancellor of the exchequer, but was, never
theless, carried by vote Of 1875 to 102. The
announcement OF the result was received
with cheers by the opposition.
There was much cross-voting In the divis-
ion on Gen. Hamley's motion. Mr.. Cham
berlain and the bulk of the unionists and
thirty conservatives supported the motion.
HOME DEFENSE CONTINGENT.
Mr.. Stanhope, secretary of state for war,
explains the scheme Of Lord Wolseley and
Gen. Sir Redvers Butler for mobilizing the
army for home defense. By this plan
force OF l25, 900 men is provided for the
protection of the harbors and coaling sta
tions, the defenses Of which are practically
completed. In addition to this force there
will be first line of defense, consisting of
10000 regular troops, all amply provided
with cavalry and artillery equipments, and
a second line, consisting Of the great volun-
teer army, which, the minister stated, is
now better prepared for an emergency than
ever before. The arrangements for the
transportation of troops are good, and the
gun supply is satisfactory. The minister
said be hoped, during the coming year, to
be able to arm all the regulars here and In
India with magazine rifles. He believed
that the smokeless powder now used by the
| army is equal to any in the world. The
appropriations asked for the army were
