AFFAIRS AT WASHINGTON.

The testimony in the Pollard Brecken-
ridge breach of promise suit is all in and
the arguments of counsel are now in pro-
gress. The case is not likely to get to
the jury till some time next week.
The oldest men in the United States
senate are Morrill, of Vermont, who Is
81; Pal of Illinois, II; Harris of
Tennessee, 76; Pugh of Alabama, "A A.;
and Sherman of Ohio and Hutton of
Virginia, II.
The President has issuel proclama-
ton warning sealers to keep out of the
waters of the North Pacific ocean and
Boring rea under the penalties prescribed
in the act carrying out the decision of
the Paris tribunal.
President Tracey of the national Re-
publican league has called a special
M eling of the executive committee,
representing all the States and territor-
les, to be held at the Arlington Hotel,
Washington, April %.

umbia has returned a new indictment for

last, in which 81 lives were lost, against
Col. Frederick G.. AinswOrth, chief of
record and pension division of the war
department, which occupied the building

President Cleveland and Secretary
Carlisle have been comforting with some
of their friends in the senate and house
over the prospect of securing some tinan-
cial legislation that will obviate the
necessity of the further sale of bonds
issued under the resumption act. The
continued falling off of customs and in
ternal revenue receipts will render it
necessary before long to raise more
money. The expenditures are each
month six millions more than the re-
ceipts, and it is admitted that new bond
issue, sooner or later, will have to be
rcsorted to. Both these high officials
have been Informed that it will be very
difficult to get any legislation, even
though it were coupled with the coinage
of the seigniorage, authorizing the sec
rotary of the treasury to issue, in his
discretion, shOrt-time three per cent
bonds to maintain the gold reserve.
