CAPRIVI WINS.
The Reduction of Grain Duties In the Ger
man House.

BERLIN, June ~. In the lower house
of the Prussian Diet to-day the debate
on grain duties was resumed. Chancel-
lor Won Caprivi declared that 1T was i'm
possible for the government to submit
to the House the reports which had been
received from foreign countries in regard
to the inquiries made by the government
about grain matters. But, the Chan
cellor added, commenting on the Rus
sian report, said that there was
no danger that Russia could
not supply sufficient grain for the use
Of Germany. In conclusion, the Chan
cellor strongly protested against the
reproach that the government had not
paid due consideration to the welfare
Of the working people.
After considerable additional debate,
Herr Rickerts motion OF yesterday;
that the government should submit to
the house the material upon which
Chancellor Won Caprivi based his recent
speech upon the grain duties, was re-
jected by vote OF 223 to 90.

There was no more imprisonment for
Jack High and Old Jugg Brown. A few
days later they were discussing the sim
gularity of their escape and the COM
mendable parts played in that event by
their children.

quite hiding his idea that such thing
would be condescension, ''that nothing

Jugg, with still less concealment of his
belief that the bestowal Of honor would

his account under the guidance Of Capt.
Csebits, with QuartermasTer Hurner and
Bait Catcher Waldron. Dir. Palmer was
taken up the crooked Ocklaweha and the
boat tied up in secluded spots only known
to expert fishermen, and trout and Dream
were hauled out to the satisfaction of the
party, MIR. Palmer proving himself an ex-
pert with bobbins, getting a nine-pound
trout. Capt. Csebits contented himself
with striking a sleeping alligator
over the head with an oar,
which came near resulting in the
party taking an unexpected bath. The
boat stood the shock, much to the relief of
all. The excitement caused the quarter
master to drop a bottle containing snake
antidote, losing its contents, thus making it
risky to hunt up snakes, which this region
abounds in. The day wound up with a
general fish fry after getting home, in which
the families of the lucky fishermen par
took Mr.. Palmer has had a chance to
compare Florida fish with Georgia fish, and

ing the navy yard of the District OF
Columbia. The charges are to the ef-
feet that General Orday, in lecture to
officers of the guard, used language
that was reasonable and incendiary
and calculated to create in the minds of
the officers of the militia feeling OF
their superiority to the law and to en-
gender bitter hatred and blOod thirsty
vindictiveness toward such persons as
they may be called upon to restrain in
the interest of peace and good order.
Also, that when he abandoned the field
of instructions in the proper military
tactics to be used in the suppression OF
civil disorder, to elucidate, compare
and condemn social, political and eco
nomic doctrines, he exceeded his prop
err function. The secretary promises
the committee that the charges shall
have proper consideration.

DR.. Briggs Case.

NEW YORK, May 27.-A Presbyter-
ian clergyman friendly to DR.. Briggs
and connected with the Union Theolog-
ical seminary, said yesterday that in
his opinion the directors of the semi
nary would simply ignore any vote OF
the general assembly which disap-
proved of Dr. Briggs appointment. He
said:
"Mr. Day, the counsel of the semi
nary, gave it as his opinion a short
time ago that the board could not le-
gally recognize any action of the assem-
bly, which would have even the appear
ance of taking hand in the govern
ment of the seminary. The govern
ment of the seminary is vested in the
board of directors, according to the
charter, and any recognition OF the as
sembly's acts might violate the charter"
DR.. Briggs friends are saying now
that they do not believe that the pres
bytery will take any further step to-
ward trying DR.. Briggs. They have
come to the conclusion that the presby-
terys action was merely political, in
tended to bring DR.. Briggs's case to the
attention of the general assembly and
to draw its attention from revision.
They believe that the committee which
Moderator Sherrer appointed will re-
port no findings against DR.. Briggs at
the June meeting of the presbytery.
DIR. Parkhurst started yesterday for De-
troit. He will be on the scene OF battle
to champion DR.. Briggs.

Acting Marshal Murphy received
orders from the commissioners to close
the places, and they are closed, the
commissioners say, permanently. The
first bank was opened about two months
ago. In fortnight the second estab-

game fever was confined to limited
number who frequented the first house,
and the others did little or no business.
