Final Interment.

New YORK, Aug. 23.-The remains OF
John Ericsson, the inventor, started for
Sweden, his native land, to- lay.
The pageant in this city was one OF tho
grandest ever seen since Grants funeral.
There were no bitches, no delays. and
everything went like cfockwork. Six
American seamen, six of the original
sailors who served on the monitor built by
Ericsson during the war, acted as pall-bear-
ers and carried the casket to ths
hearse. Whenever the procession
passed in front of church, no matter of
what denomination, bells tolled a requiem
to the memory Of the great Swedish Ameri-
can who was being carried away. All
along the route the streets were thrOnged
with people, and uncovered heads were
bowed IN respect to the precious contents
OF the hearse. When the procession arrived
at the pier the remains were at once carried
On board the tugbOat Nina, which, pre-
ceded by the steam launches Of the fleet,

more Secretary Tracy, and other offi-
more by Captain Schley, the Swedish
Minister. represented by his secretary,
Baron de Fries. The remains of Captain
Ericsson were hoisted aboard the boat and
the casket placed on the quarterback.
Every one stood with uncovered head,
while Mr.. Robinson, one of the executors
Of Captain Ericsson's estate delivered
q brief address. delivering the remains to
the care of Captain Schley. He said:

A PEACE CONGRESS,
Emperor Williams Efforts 10 Induce the
Gar 10 Agree 10 One.
Report That the Rul ers CT Germany snd Aus.
tria Will Shorty Confer on the Sub
ject-DistrustfuI Organs.
Copyrighted 1880 by the New York Associated Press

BERLIN, Aug 23.-To-night the news from
Peterhof conveys the distinct impression
that the imperial meetings have had a
highly satisfactory result for Emperor WILL
lam. The officials of the Foreign Office
maintain an absolute reticence regarding
the nature of the German Emperor's pro-
posals, but admit that there was immense
political significance in the interviews.
Advices from various reliable sources all
confirm the announcement that Emperor
William desires that another European
Congress be held, with the preliminary
cessation Of further armaments. Whatever
the nature of the inducements offered the
Gar it is certaiu he has met the Emperor's
overtures favorably.
Since the Cars first conference with
Chancellor Won CapTiyi communications
have been passing between the authorities
here and at Vienna, with a view to expe-
diting meeting between Emperors William
and Francis Joseph. Austrian official circles
regard the impending change in position
with intense distrust. Hence the semi
official press Of Vienna throw doubt on
the probability Of holding another European
Congress, and profess incredulity as to the
EmperOTs presence at Peterhof causing
great political transition.
At the same time there comes news from
Vienna that Emperor William has asked
the Emperor of Austria for a conference
within fortnight, preparatory to the pro-
jected reception Of the Car in Berlin in
October.
The Munich Neuste Nachrchten states
that the Gar and Emperors William and
Francis Joseph will meet on Austrian soil
before definitely agreeing to the holding of
a Congress.
After the court banquet tonight the En-
peror will start for Kronstadt on board tine
imperial yacht Hohenzollern. His Majesty
proceeds to LoetZen. where he will witness
an attack upon the Notifications there. He
will arrive at Potsdam Friday, and his new
departure as regards his foreign policy.
though only vaguely known, has aroused
the ire of the old Blsmarckian press.

exhibiting copy of the paper was the
gentleman's picture. Nine-tenths of that
paper was devoted to that picture and to
arguments in favor Of the bill. He made
no charge against Wedderburn. He simply
wanted the evidence called for by his reso-
luton offered yesterday. He would at the
proper time offer resolution asking for an
investigation as to what influence con-
trOlled the POStmaster-General in with
holding the evidence. The gentleman from
Iowa and his friends had stopped the in
formation from coming to the House. In
the course of conversation the gentleman
had so admitted.
CODger Indignantly denied the correct
ness OF TINS statement, and Mason as warm
ly reiterated it.
For a few N: nutes the gentlemen contra
dicted each other with greater bluntness
than pollteness, much to the amusement of
the House.
On motion OF Mason, an amendment was
adopted, striking from the bill the clause
preventing the use OF casks second time,
also an amendment al lowing the use of the

Hayes of Iowa moved to amend, by strk-
ing out all after the first section defining

amendment, on the ground that it was not
proper.
The Speaker sustained the point of order.
Mason appealed from the decision.
The decision of the Chair was sustained
by the House.

The Fl, anciel situatio,

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-The Commercial
Advertiser in reviewing the financial situa-
ton says: The statement of bank aver
ages shows precisely what the cash loss
is, S4,346, GOO. as against S4,04l ,0C0 in last
weeks statement The contraction of
S4, 491, 600 in loans explains in a measure
the course of the money market during the
excessive decrease in deposits. The bulk
of currency withdrawn has been sent west,
the loss through sub-treasury operations
being inconsiderabe Probably the actual
condition of the banks to-day is better than
the statement of averages would indicate,
from Out-of-town since Thursday. The
statement, however, shows the surplus
fund of the Clearing house banks to be
S2,512, 975 below the legal requirement.

LONDON, Aug. 23.-Ex-Maharajah Duleep
Siugh's apologies and submission to Queen
Victoria are wholly dictated by poverty and
disappointment. Owing to the instIgation
of a well-known Irish leader, Duleep, four
years ago, renounced his loyalty, declared
his hostility toward the British Crown, and
placed himself in the hands of Russia, as an
instrument for whatever designs Russia
might develop against India. The ST..
Petersburg Government welcomed him.
made him substantial allowance for his
expenses, but kept him from court, care
fully avoiding actions of serious response
bility, the time not being ripe for fomentlng
trouble against England in India.
Two years ago Russia intimated TO
Duleep that he was not particularly wanted
and Duleep sought refuge in Paris. Mean
while the British stopped Duleep's pension,
devoted a part TO the payment Of his debts
and assigned a portion to Duleep's neglect
ed children, the balance having accumulated
to the amount of many thousand pounds.
Duleep now hopes to secure this balance.
The Government is not unwilling to permit t
his return to England, but he will never be
received at court or readmitted to the royal
circles. DIleep, though son pf stable
boy, was adopted by the great RunJeet
Singh, Lion of the Punjab, whom the
British defeated, and his territory was an
nexed. Duleep was handsomely treated
until his extravaganza exceeded all limits
and his conduct disguised the Br itish au-
thoTlties. He will now have to take back

PACIFIC SHORT LINE.
Spirited Bids for the Purchase OF a New
Railroad

Spirited Bids for the Purchase OF New
Railroad.
CHICAGO, Aug pa railroad mystery
is partially explained. The Pacific Short
Line, now building between Sioux City and
Ogden, is backed by the Manhattan Trust
Company of New York. Glass traffic ar
rangements have been made with it by the
st. Paul road, as admitted a short time ago
by President Milton, and probably also
with the Great Northwestern. When CON-
pleted, the road could easily divide through
business with the Union Pacific, it having
all the Union Pacific connections aud three
others. An interview year ago with
Chairman Blanchard Of the Central Traffic
Association and Director of the Pacific
Snort Line seems to have attracted atten-
ton to the road and its possibilities, and
the con sequence is the ST. Paul and North
western roads and two large banking firms
are making spirited bids for the property.
Chairman Blanchard does not wish to sell.
The Manhattan Trust favors the sale, which
probably will be made.

The Senators Sustain a Humil-

Fourteen Base Hits Made Oh Pitcher
Harper in FIVE Innings.
a Close Contest Captured by the San
Francisco Club at Stockton.
Result Of Eastern Games.

The Colonels have had their revenge.
They were crushed by the Senators at
Emeryville Friday and turned the tables in
good style yesterday afternoon at the
Haight-street grounds. Game was called
at the conclusion of the eighth inning to
allow the leaders to catch the evening train
and the score then stood "a to in favor of
the Oakland Club.
After the fifth inning the play was of the
dreariest kind and the game dragged along
as if it would not be ended by nightfall
The heavy slugging by the Colonels was
not enough to make the contest interesting
there being too many bases on balls and
too much fumblng and wild throwing in
the Senatorial team. Harper pitched for
five innings, and during that short period
his curves were so roughly handled by the
Athenians that he gave way to Reitz.
Harper was hit safely fourteen times,
triple, two doubles and three singles be-
ing made off him in the fourth inning.
When young Reitz stepped in the box there
was faint cheer from the Sacramento
side of the house, as the second baseman
had never pitched here before and the
cranks were anxious to see him in the new
role. The game had been lost, however,
and the little fielder very sensibly took
things easy, but he should have attempted
to put the ball over the plate. The Colonies
hammered his slow curves at will and kept
piling up runs. When they did not hit.
they were forced around by getting bases
on balls, and two men scored through
Reitz's lack of control. Then ex-Pitcher
Goodenough took hand at the twirling
and Jared little better than the rest. He
was speedy but wild, and struck out two
men.
Cobb was in fine form, and pitched good
ball for Oakland. The opposing Datters
seldom hit him hard, and Colonel was
generally ready to catch or block a batted
ball. The support given him was first
class until the eighth inning, when single
and some errors gave the interior men
three runs. 1he score:
