In the House.

WASHINGTON CITY, May 2S.-In the
House the legislative appropriation bill
was reported and referred to the commit
tee of the whole.
Newberry of Illinois reported Scott's
bill appropriating 100000 for public
building at Decatur, Ill. placed on the
calendar.
The House then went into committe of
the whole on the postoifice appropriation
bill. Hayes of Iowa favored striking from
the bill the section authorizing the post
master general to fix the rate Of mail
transportation on overland railroads.
Kendall of Kentucky. who recently sue
ceeded to his fathers's seat. delivered
an eloquent free silver speech. which
ELECTED marked applause. Fithian of
Illinois denounced the Mckinley bill and
favored the enlargement of the free list.
Watson of Georgia scored the Democrats
for failure to consider the bill repeating
the Mckinley act, and proceeded to extol
the plank of the Ocala platform on that
subject. Enloe, replying to Watson's
criticism, said if the Democratic majority
was to be criticised it should be criticised
for the rules it had made and not for the
administration of business in conformity
with the rules. After further debate the
committee rose and the House adjourned

England's Trade With Her Colonies.

LONDON, May S-In the house OF lords Lord
Dunraven moved for q copy of the petition
agreed to by the Canadian parliament on April
%, regarding the preferential trade with the
United Kingdom. He said:
He considered the motion a distinct proposal
Tor reciprocity with every par. of the empire
This was the nrst time such proposal had been
advanced by a seli-goyerning co,ony in practical
shape. The suggestion should be attentiyey
received by Great Britain. Lord Salisbury had
made very practical suggestion at the bagin-
ming OF the session when he proposed that
the colonies be invited to confer with
the home government on the subject
1t would greatly increase Britain's export
trade with Canada and extend her manufacture
ing industries. But As Great Britain levied no
duties on food imports it would be necessary to
place an ad yalorem duty on them for the pur.
pose OF securing reduction of the duty i'm
posed on British manufactured goods by Cam
ada by imposing lower duty On Canadian
raw food products i'm ported into Great Britain
than that leviei on similar imports from other
countries, the duty on food products would
only increase the price OF Loaf OF bread farth-
Ing, aud would give an immense impetus to
corn growing in the British empire. The French
duty on imported wheat had not increased the
price OF bread in France. He did not believe
that the adoption of his proposal would lead to
any sacrifice OF other British commercial inter.
ests such measure he held to be necessary to
avert the disintegration OF the empire which
Tree trade was gradually producing.
Lord Balfour, parliamentary secretary of the
board OF trade, replied:
The matter was of the greatest importance to
the country. The government had agreed to
accept Lord Dunraven's motion because i. was
oovious that parliament should know officially
what specific resolutions Canada had come TO-
but he hoped II was clearly understood that he
Ola not agree with Lord Dunrayeu's argument,
OF the policy foreshadowed in Great Britain to
free herself OF foreign engagements without los
Ing advantages OF great value to her. II she at.

Prominent Citizen of Walla Walla Weds
seattle Lady In Olympia.
OLYMPIA. May 2s.-rSpecial.l- IA novel
marriage ceremony was performed in this
city this evening, the form being civil
one and Chief Justice Anders officiating.
The contracting parties were Colonel
Frank It. Gilbert, of Walla Walla, and Miss
Susie NJ. Russell. daughter of NJ. G. Rus
sell, of Seattle. The wedding party arrived
on the Multnomah and took quarters at
the Olympia hotel after which the chief
justice was sent for. Judge Anders had
never tied legal knot of the kind before,
but he consented to preside for the pur-
pose of affirming the decision Of the lower
court, which had been favorable to the
suit of the colonel. The wedding was prl-
vate, only the bride and groom, the chief
justice and Mrs. Anders, the father of the
bride and Miss Jennie \. Russell, sister
of the bride, being present. The chief
Justice arrived at the hotel at o'clock,
and the ceremony took place few
minutes later, in the parlor. A
very simple form was used, the
Judge only asking the bride and groom if
they wished to take each other as husband
and wife, and then pronouncing them, by
virtue of the authority vested in him by
the laws of Washington. duly married.
Colonel Gilbert stated to PosT-INTELLr-
eEscER correspondent that the perform
ance of the ceremony by the chief justice
was at his suggestion, as he had been
fellow-townsman of Judge Anders for a
number of years, and because he
did not belong to any religious
denomination. He said that Miss
Russell was an Episcopalian, but that she
consented freely to having the ceremony
performed by the judge. If the chief
justice could not have been secured to
officiate, Colonel Gilbert said, an Episco-
pal clergyman would have united the
couple.
The colonel, who is a member Of Gov
ernor Ferry's staff, has just returned from
Washington City. where he resigned
position in the Senate secured for him by
Senator Allen, to accept position as spec
ial agent of the land department. Il was
directed to report for duty at the Spokane
land office, said the colonel archly. few
minutes previous to standing before the
highest judicial officer in the state, ''but
reported to Seattle instead. / think I
shall be excused for the little DEPRESSION,
however, under the circumstances, espe-
clally as will reach Spokane in few
days" The wedding party will return to
Seattle on the Multnomah in the morning.

Politics in Germany.

BERLIN, May 25.-The conventions ofthe
National, Liberal and Freissinnige parties
have been keeping political leaders on a
strain. Richter explained to the Frei-
sinnige convention the attitude OF
the government in the matter
of electoral reforms in Prussia,
showing that the government will uphold
the existing system. The Freisinnige
leaders, hoping to find the National Lib
erals willing to unite in an attack upon the
proposed policy, are surprised to find the
National Liberal leaders pronouncing in
favor of the government. In the coming
general elections for members of the land
tag each party will pro oably fight by itself.
Overtures for an entente between the lead
ers of the Conservatives and Centrists,

Report of His Murder Came Through
Indiana and La Unreliable.

Report of His Murder Came Through
Indians and Is Unreliable.
VICTORIA, May 2S-fSpecial. when the
steamship Mexico arrived in port this
evening from Alaska careful inquiry was
made of Captain Hunter, the officers and
passengers as to the correctness OF
the story which reached on the
Danube Friday, to the effect that
Rev. Sheldon Jackson, d. D., had been
killed by Indians. Captain Hunter said
that he had heard nothing about the
alleged murder, and certainly when he
left Sitka, on the Dist, there had been no
word there of such an occurrence.
The Alaska papers had nothing
of the supposed murder either,
and none of the passengers
had heard of it. A well-known Alaska
pilot, w. e. George, called at the Co'onist
Office to say that notwithstanding tho
story brought down on the Danube it can
scarcely be true. Pilot George said:
DIR. Jackson is not resident missionary in
Alaska, but is United States government super
fntcndent OF education of that territory, with
head Office at Washington City, where his family
reside He has not been in Alaska for the past six
months, and on May Ii / met him at Port
Townsend, going northward to Alaska on the
tional department, and also to to the intro
duction of Siberian reindeer into Alaska. Thus
he could hardly have been murdered.
Mr.. James Dean, special Worlds fair
commissioner, who brought the report
down, heard that the murder had been
committed about three weeks ago, and as
the information came from the Indians
themselves it was looked upon as unreliable
Mr.. Dean is not man likely to make mis-
takes about a matter of this kind, but it
is possible that the name of the murdered
missionary has been misunderstood. The
purser of the Topeka, which was in port
yesterday, says that the name should have
been Rev. Edwards, and that the story of
shooting is another account of the murder
on January II. 1t is sincerely hoped that
this is the correct theory.
PoRr TOWNSEND, May 2s-TSpecial l.
The report that Rev. DIR. Sheldon Jackson
was recently murdered in Alaska is gen.
orally disbelieved here. DR.. Jackson
sailed on the revenue cutter Bear from
this port on the 18th inst. direct for
Unalaska. The dispatch in today's
Posr-INrELLIoEScER from Victoria says
the crime was committed near Juneau
about three weeks ago. This statement
cannot be authentic, because if the Bear
had gone into juneau she could not have
arrived there much before the 18th or 10Th,
and the news would not have had time to
arrive down since then. Furthermore.
DR.. Jackson had busine IS of Importance,
which required his immediate presence in
Unalaska, and there is reason to presume
that he went to Southeastern Alaska. He
is one of the most widely known mission
aries in the United States.
Malcolm Campbell, the whisky snug
gler, charged with the murder of Charles
II. Edwards, a missionary. last January,
was not indicted by the grand jury at
Juneau. Campbell had the influence of
the whisky element, and secured his re-
lease with little difficulty.

the unhappy Anderson's cries soon ceased
to be heard.
Not knowing anything about the man
agement of boat, Miller and Mitchell
went broad off before the wind, and IN a
short time struck the beach OF Lopez
island, near the residence OF Judge
Thacker. The judge, who is good
samaritan. took them in, and their troubles
were ended. The Odd Fellow was iioated
at the next tide, and Mitchell and a friend
piloted her to Anacortes. while Miller pre-
ferred to travel on the mail boat.
Captain Anderson was Swede. who
came to the Sound from the Great Lakes
two years ago. He squatted on one OF the
Sucia islands, where he has cleared some
land. He was well known around Ana
cortes, where he often handled one of the
race yachts in regattas. He was man OF
about 40, and it is reported has no family
or relatives out here.

that Captain Lugard imprisoned several

gathered posse started in pursuit. The
