Races Attract the Members.

WAsHINGToN, May 3.-Saturday Icing a perfect day for the races there was again a scarcity of members in the House and it took half an hour to mus ter quorum. After a quorum ap- peared the House took up the Diplo- matic and consular appropriation bill, the pending question being the Hit amendment to restore the salary of the Minister to Venezuela to S7,500, the committee having reduced it to S5,o00. The House sustained the committee-yeas, l9; nays, 149.
 The bill was further considered, but another obstacle was interposed in the next line, which cut off the mission to Denmark and consolidated 1t with Sweden and Norway. Much opposition was manifested, and finally, foreseeing defeat for the committee if the matter was put to vote, Mr. Blount said that he felt authorized to say that the com mittee would not press the question, and the amendment of Mir. Post, restor- ing the Danish mission. was agreed to.

FARMERS' ALLIANCE.
LEADERS PLOTTING FOR THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
A Very Clever Scheme Reported to Have Been Hatched-The Close of the Der ing Sea Negotiations at Hand.Gen- eraI Washington News.

WASHINGTON, May 2 There is a Farmers Alliance scheme in process of incubation, and if it matches it will cause a great sensation at the National Democratic convention. 1t is being engineered by President Polk and w. l.. Barnes, secretary of the Farmers Alliance of North Carolina. 1t has been guarded carefully, but the secret tanks sprung a leak to-day and let loose the story, which in brief is a plan to have instructions issued to the mem bers of the North Carolina alli- ance to capture the Democratic prima- ries and send a solid delegation of Ali auce men under the guise of Democrats to the National convention. There a demand for an Alliance plank in the platform will be made, and when it is refused the North Carolina delegation will withdraw in a body, thus giving eclat to Alliance principles and the lie to the assertion that the Southern Alliance will not stand to its colors during n National campaign. So, at least, the plotters argue.

h Jury Does Not Believe in Ills Insanity -Republicans Gain In the French EIections-A British Success in Africa -GeneraI Foreign News.

MELBOURNE. May 4-Deemine b
 trial for the murder of his last wife,
 formerly Miss Mather of Rainhill,
 has ended in verdict of guilty and
 the imposing of the death sentence on the prisoner. The attorneys for the defense devoted all their energies to at.
 tempting to prove that Deeming was
 insane The latest testimony for the
 prisoner was that of Dr. Fishbourne,
 who was called to give evidence as to
 the prisoners sanity. He swore that
 he had examined Deeming and found symptoms which indicated disease of the brain.
 Deeming and his counsel encouraged
 the idea that he was the Whitechapel fiend in order to sustain the theory of uncomfortable honicidal mania. During the early days of his imprison-
 ment Deeming was defiant, and even
 affected to laugh at the charges against him, and boasted of the libel suits he would bring against the English and Australian newspapers after his ac- quittal, but after the coroner's jury found him guilty of the Windsor murder he was very much changed, showed signs of breaking down and finally confessed the crime for which he has been sentenced to die.

Prepariny for the Convent,op.

SPRINGFIELD, H., May 4.-Republi' cans of high degree are assembling here preparatory to their state Con vention tomorrow. Rooms and boomlets stick out of half the windows in the Leland hotel. Some of these booms-are healthy and vigorous as q young mountain ash. Others are weaker than gooseberrie bushes. Mos, of the candidates are already here and at work. The rest, except George w. Price of Galesburg, who IS sick, will arrive tonight. The Chicago delega ton reached here this morning in q driving rain-storm.
 The State Central committee will meet tomorrow night and arrange the details of the convention. Congress man A. J. Hopkins will probably be temporary chairman and Charles A. Partridge temporary secretary. Col. A. S. Matthews is generally mentioned as temporary chairman. It is proposed to do without speeches in the convcn- tion and confine nominations to simple announcements of the candidates names.

ANDovER, N.

 It is said that the kidnapping party had no papers, either American or Can adian, to warrant the arrest. The facts have been laid before the Minister of Justice at Ottawa and he has been re- spectfully asked to quietly but firmly demand the return of the man.

The vessel carried l16, ,357 bush els of corn and 100 sacks of flour and will go direct to St. Petersburg and will unload at the most convenient port for shipment to the famine dig t,int

WASHINGTON, May 3 - Chairman Blanchard will probably get his River and Harbor bill up some time this week. It carries more money than any bill heretofore reported by the River and Harbor committee. It com mits the government to improvements which will require annual appropria- tions to the extent of S7,000,000 The total of the present bill is S20, 700, 900. Ultimately it will pass the House carry ing nearly s2l.0oo,0Oo and will go tc the Senate to be raised from three to four millions by that body. An in crease will be absolutely necessary tC insure the great waterways and har- bors of the North getting what is due them.
