Miss Mary Fuller Married.

There has been another romantic mar
rage in the family of Chief Justice Mel
| vile W. Fuller of the supreme court of the
United States. He has eight daughters,
and four of them have married either con-
trary to his wishes or in such way as to
create the impression that all of the Misses
Fuller are extremely self-wIlled in love af-
| fairs. Miss Mary, the eldest daughter, is
the latest victim of that sly little rogue,
Cupid, and the happy bridegroom is Colin
G. Manning, a son of ex-Governpr Manning
of South Carolina. Young Manning came
to Washington several years ago to act
as private secretary to Senator M. e.
Butler, OF South Carolina, and at the same
time take the law course at the Georgetown
University He at once became popular in
society circles, and at the instance OF the
Breckenridge family, of Kentucky, was
introduced to the daughters of Chief Justice
Fuller
L was soon apparent to all who knew
him in Washington that he was deeply in
love with Miss Mary Fuller. This atfec-
ton was reciprocated, and they made no
attempt to conceal the fact. For reasons
not known, Chief Justice and Mrs. Fuller did
not look with entire favor upon young Man
ming as prospective son-in-law. They knew
him to be member OF an estimable South
Carolina family, but they probably thought
he had not made sufficient progress up the
ladder of fame and prosperity. They also
recalled the fact that one of their daugh-
tiers, who participated in an elopement
might have made more desirable choice in
selecting a husband.
In spite of the mild but determined oppo-
sition on the part of the young ladies'
parents, young Manning continued his at
tention to Miss Mary, until it was thought
best for all concerned that she should be
sent to Berlin to finish her
musical education. All of the
chief Justices daughters are mora
or less accomplished in musical
and literary affairs. 1t was thought alb
sence might make the heart of the young
lady grow fonder of some one else. So she
went abroad to take musical course at one
of the famous Conservatives at Berlin. In
the meantime the young folks kept up
constant correspondence and never for a
moment allowed their love to grow cold.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Manning went
abroad and Joined Miss Fuller. About the
same time Mrs. Fuller learned that her
daughters health was not good, so she
also went to Berlin, with the intention of
bringing her home While travelling
in Italy, so the story goes Mr..
Manning met Mrs. Fuller and her
daughter and without delay induced the
young lady to marry him. When Mrs.
Fuller learned what had occurred she ex-
pressed her surprise and disappointment,
but finally gave them her blessing, and,
after attending the wedding. Immediately
started homeward, leaving the young
couple to spend their honeymoon in Europe
and come back to America at their sweet

WAND to Como Torethor.

There is feeling of uneasiness on the
part of the Democratic members in the
house over the condition of business in the
house, and there is disposition to get to-
gether and agree upon a programme.
At present the members are simply drifting
along and it is desired to bring order
out of the confusion which prevails. The
silver question is the most disturbing ele-
ment Tariff bills and regular annual APP
preparation bills viii soon demand great
deal of attention, and it is agreed
there must shortly come a
time when the programme of business
Tor some months to come must be settled if
anything is to be accomplished. The abb
sence of Catching has delayed the meeting
of the rules committee for some days past,
and the health Of the speaker has made it
necessary he should seek respite from
public affairs, while the house is
temporarily in recess on account of
the visit of number of the members to
Chicago Meanwhile q call for caucus
has been issued. This call has been pre-
scented to Holman, chairman of the caucus,
and as it has the requisite number of
names a call will be issued by
Holman. It is probable the whole
Democratic policy will be considered
at the caucus and programme of action be
outlined as far as possible. The silver men,
including Bland, all say they have 20 inten-
ton to antagonize the tariff and other
measures, but they will not consent that
the tariff and other measures shall be used
to prevent the consideration of the silver
bill

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20-The conference
with the postmasters of sixty-five of the
large cities in the country, which has been
arranged for the 9th of March is received,
it is said, with much favor by
postmasters addressed and the meeting
promises to be very interesting and profit
able. The following are some of the ques-
tons that have been suggested as proper
ones for discussion:
Consolidation of third and fourth class
matter (printed matter and merchandise)
into one class at the lowest existing rate of
postage, one cent for two ounces
notifications or amendments of
existing laws and regulations 1govern-
ing admission of second-class matter
and insuring against loss by the govern
ment of parties sending registered matter;
the question of more rapid transportation
of mails between depots and postofices and
postoficss and stations of large cities.
Consideration of measures looking to 1.-The
improvement and extension of the special
deli very system.
Consideration of charge for money orders
and the propriety of any amend
ment to existing laws and regulations
governing the same; the ACCESSIBILITY
of establishing branch of the dead letter
Office at San Francisco or some other point
On the Pacific slope, the question of a
closer separation on the various railway
postofice lines of mails for larger cities.

The iirst bill upon the calendar was laid
aside. The next bill for the relief of a. j.

was set in motion by Bland, who sent to
the clerks desk and had read a letter from
a U. A. X. post in Missouri, asking him to
inform the gentleman from Ohio (Harter)
IN response TO his auti-siIver circular that
the &. A. L. posts were able to attend TO
their own business. Bland again criticised
darter attitude on the silver question.
Harter said he aScr1bed to his friend
(what his friend did not ascribe to hin)
honesty OF purpose. The tree silver bill
was an infamous measure, yet he ascribed
TO the gentleman an honest purpose in sub
uniting 1t. There was no difficulty with
the heart of his friend, Bland, but the
trouble was with his head. He predicted
II the house passed the measure which in

cratic party would lose the votes of the
men who labored for their living, and
when the party marched TO the polls in

whelming victory, it would march to GER

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Feb. 2O.-The Reform
press association held an open session this
morning at which there was a
much more numerous attendance than
yesterday. Most of the morning
was consumed in discussion and
denouncing the National Union company as
being connected with or backed by the cord

pointed to investigate the whole
subject and report at the after
noon session. The rest of the
morning was taken up with addresses by
Col l. I. Polk. Gen. Weaver, A j.

All took ground in favor of third

At the afternoon session the investiga-
ton committee reported that a re presenta-
tive Of the National Union asked to be
heard, and the association granted further
time in which to hear the other side
Of the affair. The committee
on resolutions, it is learned,
have submitted two reports to the press

Governor Jones has written letter in re-
gard to the anti-Hill movement in the
course of which he says: s'The effort which
starts forth with such enthusiasm and
vigor as remonstrance will result in still
further degradation Of the party If its ac-
ton be limited to protest If
we are TO but 'grieve and groan'
and then fall meekly into line
we but strengthen the chain that bind US.
Our Remuneration should be made so
broadly in the interests of pure Democracy,

them to be construed as being for the ad-
vancement Of the political fortunes of any
one man, no matter how deserving in his
own merits or in contrast with David 3.

ably low. All the world stands ready to

Several brokers said that everything was
