silver speculation, and did not recoilect

CONGRESS IN A RUSH.

Reed Blamed for the Delayed Condi.
ton OF Business,
WASHINGTON, Feb. A.-Senator Halo.
speaking apparently with the full approval
OF his colleagues, republicans as we'll as
democrats, solemnly announced in the
Senate to-day that Speaker Reeds rsvolu-
tion had proved failure In tho only par
ticular-namely, the expedition of legisla-
tive business-which has furnished its
author with an apology for it. Senator
Hale announced that the appropriation
bills had been slower in getting to the Senate
In this congress than, perhaps, ever before
and pointed out, as did other republi-
can leaders, that as a consequence it would
be all that the Senate could do to get them
through in time to be signed by the Presi-
dent before noon Of Wednesday week aud
that all chance of getting the bankruptcy
bill, the revenue marine bill and all other
important measures through seemed to have
vanished.
AN OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.
This announcement is not weakened by
the fact that there is personal estraneenent
between Senator Hale and Speaker
Reed, for it was made officially and without
contradiction, and must be taken to be the
deliberate Judgment of the Republican
party Of the Senate on the results of Speaker
Reeds work, now clearly exhibited. None Of
the republican senators are frank enough to
confess in an equally public way what
they all admit privstely-their great
regret that they frittered away so
many precious days in the fore
doomed attempt TO pass the
force bill. Had il not been for the stubborn
ness Of Senator Hoar and a few others.
backed by the obstinacy Of President Har.
rison ana Speaker Reed, which kept the
Senate occupied with the bayonet bill, It is
safe to says that the bankruptcy bill, rhe
revenue marine bill and other bills could
have been passed and the copyright bill
would not now be in danger of perishing for
the lack of time.

NEVER PROMISED BETTER.
The Crop Outlook improves as the
Season Advances.
Sacramento Orchards and Grain Lands
Promise Remarkable Yield of
Fruit and Grain.

Supervisor f. Greer was in town day
or two ago, and told RECoRD-UNIoN re-
porter that the outlook in the county for
this years fruit crop is unusually bright.
''Yes, SIR" he said, ''I think we're
going 20 have phenomenally prosper
Gus fruit year. Everything except the
peaches looks beautiful and healthy
throughout the county, and particularly
in my district. When l say except the
peaches L don't mean to say that the
peach-crop is a failure not by any
means. The leaves of the peach trees
have been falling considerably from some
unknown reason, and this may hurt the
crop some, but not enough to call it a
failure.
But everything else is in magnificent
condition-particularly cherries, plums,
almonds. strawberries, blackberries and
raspberries. ] tell you California is rush
ing to the front like creased lightning,
and Sacramento County is right in it,"
THE RIVER LANDS AND ISLANDS.
Yesterday a reporter met l.. Scatina,
a prominent San Francisco fruit-dealer
and Gamer, who had been for week in
specting the orchards and gardens along
the Sacramento River south OF this city,
81 never saw such crops" said Mr..
Scatina, sin that section. The trees are
fairly loaded down with young fruit"
(which variety" he was asked, zap
pears to be in the lead?"
Upon my word, it is hard to say" he
replied. Every kind is doing well, and
the yield will be very great. The or
chardists thought they had big crop of
apricots last year, but they will have
more this year.
1.-The same is true of cherries, pears and
all other fruits. And what is more, the
ground crops will be just as heavy. There
isn't an article grown in those orchards
and gardens along the river that doesn't
give promise of the heaviest yield ever
known"
Are the same conditions manifest on
the islands down that way?"
''They are. Why, you never saw things
growing as they are on Grand Island.
The potatoes and Iother ground crops
will be immense. while the trees are as
heavily loaded with fruit as on the main
land. / tell you, people will have an op-
portunity this year to realize the value of
fruit and garden lands in that locality"
THEY ARE ALL SMILING.
Farmers and fruit growers from various
parts Of the county were also seen on Sat
urday, and all said they had never known
brighter prospects than those which now
confront the tillers OF the soil.
The additional prospect Of wheat COM
manding better price next summer than
it has for some years past, has had the
effect Of still further raising the spirits OF
the farmers, and all things considered,
they are about the happiest people that
one meets.
CHERRIES ARE BACKWARD,
The cool weather has prevented cherries
and strawberries from ripening as
rapidly as usual, and there will probably
be few OF the former shipped within the
next two or three weeks, but by that
time they Will be coming in in consider
able quantities. Other varieties of early
fruits win soon follow, and almost before
we become aware of it the fruit shipping
season will be upon us.

San Jose Defeated.

SAN Francisco, April 26.-The Sacra-
mento team had walk-over in the two
games with Oakland to-day, and almost
every man in the Capital City team
swelled his batting average.
Robinson put in his three pitchers
against the Senators-two in each game
but it was all the same, the Sacramentos
hit the ball right and left, loosening the
boards on the fence and making the
fielders earn their salaries.
In the afternoon game the Colonels coll
lapsed, and were thoroughly disheart-
ened. France and Hoffman pitched great
ball, and the hits made off them were
seldom of much use to the Colonels.

Master Frederick Williams, 10 years of
age, the famous London boy-soprano
from the choir of Westminster Abbey,
will give concerts. He Is on leave of alb
sence for four months, by permission of
the Vicar Choral of Westminster.
He will be assisted by Charles A. E.
Harriss, superior solo .organist. The
little lad has had phenomenal success in
this country. In fremont Temple, BOs-
ton, he drew an audience of 2,500 people.
At Toronto he was given an official re-
ception by the city, and presented with q
watch, emblaZoned with the city coat of
arms.
The well-known conductor Jules Jor-
dan, Of Providence, r. l., rendered him
the leading soprano work for the great
May festival, in which the leading singers
of the East are to take part. He goes
from here to give six concerts in Chick
ering Hall, New York, under the auspices
of the impressario, Ruben, who brought
out Albani in her last season in Califor-
MIA. The lad won instant success in San
Francisco and drew immense audiences.
His notes are high, clear as a silver bell,
smooth and resonant, and his phrasing is
something phenomenal. Charles Pe2rce,
Musical Examiner at Cambridge says
He sings in a treble of beautiful quality
of tone, without effort, and in natural
and delightful manner, has complete
management OF the breath, clear articu-
lation, accurate pronunciation, good at
tack and artistic phrasing." Sexton, the
Vicar Choral of Westminster, says: Il
will trust to him any solo work, however
difficult. He sings a high G with ease.
He has all the oratorio arias at his fingers
