Review OF the Market.

Henry Clews' Weekly Financial Recie,c. is
sued to day, says: During the past week business
at the stock exchange has been largely confined
to the dealings of professional operators. The
''bear'' element has been out in force, led by
strong and skillful commanders. Their attacks
have been mainly directed to exposed special
ties. through battering which they have hoped
to reach the general list; they have conducted
their operations with skill and vigor and their
success has perhaps been proportional to their
efforts. but the confidence of holders Of diri-
dend properties, whether on this market or in
London. remains virtually mistaken.
Within the twelve months there has been a
vast recovery from the worldwide effects of the
Barring shock. and the Improvement is about as
manifest in the European markets as on this
side of the Atlantic. But, nevertheless. al
though the bears may be acting upon false
theory Of the situation, it is not to be denied
that they have lately had the upper hand and
their success must be respected. A vigorous
bear" campaign. however, usually eliminates
in an oyersold market, and. if the overseihng is
carried to excess, naturally an upward reac-
ton follows.

THE FIRE AT THE CAPITOL.
Report Of the Committee That Investigated
Its Cause.

ANepott OF the committee That Investigated
Its Cause.
The committee on public buildings aud
grounds has for some time been investigating
the fire in the folding room of the Capitol
which took place March %. and today rendered
its report. The report gives a description Of
the rooms used for folding docu-
ments and storing of books in the basement of
the Capitol and states that 500. 600 volumes
were stored there. The rooms were greatly
overcrowded and were lighted solely
by gas, most Of the burners being side
lights and very close to the piled
mp books. On March 20 gas jet was left burn
ing ns usual over the desk of the order clerk
upon which WAS considerable pile Of papers,
DC The committee is Of opinion that the fire
started here and was carried by a draft
into the inner room aud communicated to
the piles of books. The damage was about
sl.ooo The committee could ind no other
reason for the fire except that the rules
against smoking in the room had not been
strictly enforced. According TO the report
fires had occurred in these rooms in 1884.
1887, 1889, 1891. and in February, 1892. Nearly
all the previous fires had originated from the
gas jet. and although only small damage had
resulted the constant. repetition showed the
decided requirement for some change
In the arrangement. The report rec
ommcnds that snHpking be strictly for
hidden in The folding room. and that
electric lights be substituted for the gas Jet
Attention lis also called 10 tine fact that the pres
ent quarters are entirely inadequate for the
service required. The report was accompanied
by resolution providing for the substitution
OF electric lights, which was adopted by the
House.

SOME IMPORTANT MEASURES.
Judge kimbal1 Calls the Attention of I'll
Comm iss ioners to Them.


The follosEing letter. addressed to the Com
missioners of the District by Judge !. G. KIM
ball of the District Police Court. has been re-
ferred by them to Chairman Hemrhill of the
House District committee, with their approval
CONTAMINATION me to call your attention
to the following bills:
First. Senate No. 267. for the preservation of
public peace in the District of Columbia. which
passed the Senate and for some months has
been in the House District committee. This
bill is very important and makes uni
form the laws on that subject in
the District. It is almost Il copy of the law in
"Webb's Digest" the changes being to make
that law complete. As the law now stands
there are three laws on the subject-one passed
Digest). one by Georgetown and the third for
the county outside of these cities. Some things
are ofenses against the law within certain ter
ritory and not in the rest of the District. This
ought to be made uniform.
Second. Senate No. LOGO, which was passed
by the Senate about the same time and is in the
House District committee upon the subject of
concealed weapons. The law il now stands is
entirely inadequate 20 curb The offenso and
am very anxious that some legislation be made
on the subject l am told tina. besides both
judges of the police court committees of citi-
zens have urged upon the committee OF the
House the need of legislation.
Third. Q ouse bill S419. to amend the Police
Court act This proposed legislation will enable
defendants to receive jury trials, which under
the wording of the act of March 3. 1891, the
Supreme Court Of the District has recently de-
cided cannot now be done. Unless some act like
that proposed by the bill is enacted
there will be large deficiency in the
appropriation for the jury, for we now have to
have the jury six days in every week in place of
1GO days in the year heretofore. Another
reason why the act should be passed is that,
should all who are entitled to jury demand it.
both i'll United States and District gases
another jury VIII have to be provided zone for
each branch). and this will double the expense.
respectfully ask that the Commissioners
take such steps to secure the legislation needed
in the matters hereirbefore referred TO.

NASHVILLE. TENN, May Alas this dispatch

there is still feeling of uncertainty to what
will happen next. After the committee

Weems, the would-be rapist who had been
brought to this city to escape lynching in
Chattanooga, the city work house and the
iailer's residence were searched BY the commit

came convinced that the negro was in the city
police station and. regardless of advice of lead
ers. the crowd swelled by this time TO about 500
men. made dash across the public square and
down Market street upon which the station IL
located. about 200 yards from the square. As
the angry and boisterOus crowd neared the pO-
lice station it was met by platoon of twenty
Eve policemen armed with Springfield rifles.
At the point of the bayonet the police
drove the mob back to the square During
the time the mob was held at bay at the head
OF the street rock throwing begun and
Chief Clack and Lieut. Cassten of the force
were struck with large rocks, receiving painful
injuries.
No shots were fred.
The mob then held a consultation on the
square. speeches were made and committee
appointed to go through the police station.
The examination allowed. but negro
was found. Another committee was permitted
to search with like results.
After more speaking the mob left the square,
broke mp into small bodies. and whether it will
again assemble tonight is not known. The
negro. it is stated on good authority, was taken
from the city yesterday afternoon. carried to
Kentucky and placed ON a Memphis-bOund
train. II il believed that about fifty of the
moi were from Chattanooga.

THE FOLDING ROOM FIRE.
Mr.. Warner of New York. from the committee
on public buildings and grounds, submitted a
report relative to the recent fire in the House
folding room. The committee finds that the

ports a resolution for the substitution OF cleo

luton was adopted.

THE SUNDRY CIVIL BILL.

Mr.. Forney (Ala.) offered an amendment
providing that the board of managers of national
homes for disabled volunteer soldiers shall
siOns of all inmates to the support of the
home-except where the inmate has dependent
wife, child or parent.
This gave rise to good deal of discussion
and was vigorously opposed. In advocating
the amendment Mr.. Snodgrass of Tennessee
said that the pension roll, which should be
roll of honor. had become. owing to the legisla-
ton of the republican party. roll of dishonor.
Mr.. Bland (Mo.) commented upon the
large expenditures made by the
present Congress and attributed many of them
to the legislation of the Fifty-first Congress.
He referred more especially to the dependent
pension act. which he announced his willing
ness to repeal. He demanded economy, and he
demanded that the wealth of the country should
be taxed.
There should be tariff reduction all along the
lne and the tariff tax should be supplemented
by an income tax. Today poverty was taxed to
support the pensioners. II the wellth were
faxed he would not complain. But to tax poor

poor people was not only class legislation it was
unjust and oppressive legislation.

MRS. HARRrsoN.s HEALTH.
DR.. Gardner Says She IL Not Alar,ningiy IN.
But VIII Require Weeks to Recover.


But VIII Require Weeks to Recover.
In view Of the many conflicting and in some
instances alarming, reports which have recently
appeared in the public press concerning the
condition of Mrs. Harrison's health. DIR. F. A.
Gardner, her physician, was requested by q
reporter TO state the facts in the case.
In response to this request DIR. Gardner
said that Mrs. Harrison was suffering from COM
plete nervous exhaustion. which was the indi-
rect result of three years of attention TO the
severe and exacting social duties OF the White
House. Late in February of this year Mrs Har-
rison had an attack Of the grip. 1t was particu-
larry severe and tenacious and from il developed
bronchitis. While in this condition she caught
cold and this brought ON bronchial pneumonia.
Other severe and trying complications followed.
Low malarial fever set i'm and il was several
days before its weakening and wasting force
could be broken. and hardly had she begun TO
mend before an attack of rheumatism added its
exhausting and enervatiug influence to what had
preceded it. Mrs. Harrison's strength had
been seriously overtaxed by her conscientious
attention to the Notwithstanding duties
which, as the wife of the President. were in
cumbent upon her. and the result Of ii
ali Is complete nervous prostitution. While her
condition Ia not in any sense alarming il will be
many weeks before she has fully recovered.
She now needs perfect quiet and rest, and with
these she will gradually regain her strength and
ultimately her usual good health.
Mrs. Harrison is reported to be resting COM
fortably this afternoon.

AN INNOCENr-LOoKING PROVISION.
But It Has Caused . Good Deal Of a Stir
Among Western People.

nut mas Caused GOOD Deal OF n Stir
Among Western People.
Considerable stir has been raised among the
people interested in the western land grant
railroads and in the mail facilities of
that section Of the country by an
innocent and economical looking pro-
vision which was put in the pct office
appropriation bill by the committee at the re-
quest of Mr.. Holman. No special impor .ance
was attached to the provision when
Mr.. Holman asked to have it put in the bill,
since the interested parties have learned of it
there is a fight on hand. The provision is that
the allowance to land grant railroads for the
carrying of mails SHALL be but fifty per cent of
that to other roads for the same service.
Representatives of the roads are here making
fight. Judge J. NJ. Spencer of the c.. B. and
O. road said to STAR reporter today that he
believed the provision would be knocked out
as it was put into the bill merely in a perfume
tory way and without consideration of iA pur-
port.
There is absolutely no authority" he said.
''for the position that these land grant roads
should be paid so per cent of the
price paid other roads, which means
only so per cent of fair and reason
able price. Its result would be very dis
astrous to the people of the west, because it
would drive the present facilities in use by
these roads out of the service and the thousands
who live 300 miles west of Chicago and
st. Louis, who get their mail and papers
from these cities by 10 O'Clock on the day of
their issue would have to wait till 10 O'Clock at
night or possibly the next day. This reduction
will not only drive these roads out of
the service, which service they now rem
der ut 80 per cent Of the cost
of other roads, but it will re-
suit in other railroads doing the service, which
will cost the government 100 per cent for what
they are now paying only 80 per cent. thereby
inceasing the cost Of conveying the mail 81 ,000-
600 annually instead Of reducing it,
The interested parties had hearing before
the committee and discorcred that Mr.. Holman
was responsible for the paragraph.

The Sherman Statue Knocked Out,

In the committee Of the whole House yester-
day Mr.. kilgore raised a point Of order against
the clause in the sundry civil bill appropriating
100000 for the preparation of a site and the
erection of pedestal for statue of Gen. W.
L. Sherman in Washington.
Dir. Henderson of Iowa made an earnest ap-
peal to the gentleman from Texas to withdraw
his objection.
The chair (Mr. Herbert) said that he would
SEE his way clear to do But he could find
no law authorizing the appropriation. and was
constrained to sustain the point and rule out
the clause.
Mr.. Henderson of Iowa then asked unani-
nous consent to reinsert the clause, but Mr..
kilgOre objected.
Mr.. Henderson then gave notice that he
would call the matter up in the House tOmor-
row in the shape of a separate bill and ask
unanimous consent for its consideration.
