but it was foregone conclusion that no busi-

There'were probably more members in the
Senate chamber than in the House when an
attempt was made to get vote on Mr.. By
NUNS bill for the reinstatement Of railway
mail clerks discharged in the closing days of
the Harrison administration.
Mr.. Heard had made list Of bills which
he intended to push, the first being the bill
to provide for the free departmental library
for the District. Realizing that an attempt
to secure action on any bills would be a waste
of time he consented to an adjournment,

Better Than a Message

The letter method of addressing Congress
has its advantages and disadvantages. The
personal feature in it attracts attention and
secures more general popular reading than
would otherwise be the case. President 4
message has something dreary, formal and
monotonous in its very nature, and thus re-
pels the public, whereas letter from the
President will be read with zest by all classes.
President Grant once wrote one of these
personal letters about greenbackism TO a
Senator at a time when fiat money appeared
TO be in the ascendant: and although he was
tartly arraigned by his own political friends,
he easily survived all hostile criticism.-Bos-

The cornerstone laying of the new Masonic
Temple for the Naval Lodge OF Masons, "a full

About thirty members of the Naval and
grand lodges were on hand. but the rain kept

to-day.

MISSIYE LIKED THE GOING
Heavy Track Just Suited the Winner
Of the Distance Race.
JOCKS USED POOR JUDGMENT
Murphy and Moore Raced all the Speed Out
Of Their Mounts and Had Nothing Loft
with Which to finish-Four Wsll.backsd
Choices Landed in Front

II was rainy, cold. and cheerless at the
Island track yesterday, yet the attendance
was almost up to the average and the racing
was fairly interesting. In spite of the heavy
track well-backed choices captured the first
four races, while in the fifth the winner
turned up In Missive, the extreme outsider,
who was at 80 to In the betting.
The success Of Missive was not due to supe-
rior fieetness, but to the wretched manner in
Kenyon. The two latter were the favorites and
both were heavily supported Kenyon closing q
pronounced first choice. The distance was
one and one-eighth miles, and instead Of
waiting both Moore and Murphy started out
with the evident intention OF killing each
other of. So well did they succeed that when
Strengthened out for home neither had any
thing left with which to finish and Missive
had no difficulty in coming from the rear and
winning with ease. II Brooklyn had been
handled In any fair shape he could not have
lost. Hedley allowed him to get knocked
about, pinned In and cut of, and even then
he finished fair third.
As rule widely tipped and touted good
thing fails to go through. but this was not the
case with Mike Daly's two-year-old McFonso,
entered in the maiden race for youngsters.
Everyone at the track seemed to have the tip
and crowded about the books waiting for a
price. Dan Donnelly broke the ice by chalk
ing up 10 to /, and the rush TO get on was
something frightful. But Dan winked the
other eye and took not n dollar Of the offered
hundreds. The only money that did go on
was at to 5. and this WAS shortened to to
at tho close. Several hundred dollars was
played on the colt in the Albany pool room
at the average price Of to 5. For a wonder
McFonso won easily.
In the opening event Graceful closed shade
the choice over Delury, but the latter came
away in the stretch and won easily. In the
second Cheddar was first and Miss Bess Sec
ond choice. In a break Tedd Gegg ran into
Miss Bess, throwing the latter to her knees
and unshipping Jockey Donnelly. The mare
ran away one mile and fve-eighths and was
withdrawn. Cheddar won easily. Lyrist was
backed down to Z to 10 to win the third, and
he did the act in romp. Summaries:

There May Yet. However, BE Interesting
Developments in the Cincinnati
Diocese Liquor Case.
1t was intimated at Mgr Satollis residence
yesterday that some interesting developments
in the much-discussed liquor case may be
forthcoming later, though it is said to be the
present intention of the ablegate to drop the
matter and let the diocese OF Cincinnati here
after attend to all matters growing out OF the
affair.
II was stated by one OF the archbishop's
friends that the decision. which had been
known TO outside parties prior to its publica-
ton. was intended 10 apply only to the i'm
mediate jurisdiction of Bishop Watterson who
Is characterized as an intense adherent Of the
temperance cause.
The real aim, it was explained, was merely
to influence those of the diocese who were
Indicted to the use of liquor to use intoNi-
eating stimulants with more moderation, as
many cases OF want caused by their excessive
use had been brought to his attention and had
aroused his sympathy.
Whether any communications had been is
sued from liquor dealers rs a result OF his
ruling. Archbishop Sntolli refused to say, but
it Is believed that several dealers have sub
mitted protests. The archbishop. according
to an informant regards many of the pub
lished statements about the case as inten-
tional Misrepresentation, but does not regret
the publication of the full letter to the bishop.
1t was expected by some that Bishop Wat
terson would visit Washington to confer with
the archbishop. but this belief is not con-
flrmed at the latter's home. The last visit of
the bishop here was about month ago.

OF the civilization of these times can bring
forth nothing better than political mad
ness and su eide; we may therefore hope
that this gloom of the European outlook
is but the prelude of great saving effort
to conserve and perpetuate the vast
modern progress of the nations. These
are matters that deeply underlie the
present situation of financial affairs and
the prospects of every form of investment
IN the early future. Whatever tends to
the revival of confidence and enterprise in
Europe is Of vital importance to
progress on this side of the Atlantic. We
are rapidly drifting toward greater

to a broader commingiing with the worlds
markets; and it is on the new continent
that the old must find the most profitable

Remotely, therefore, as these foreign
factors may, at first sight, seem to bear
upon the investment interests of the

a STAGE STRUCK BEAUTY.
Hunting For a Manager Who Engaged
Ter For the Season.

OA - "a VIC 1Ce~0OAs
Brunswick, Ca, June 1.-THE sensa-
ton in Brunswick at present is the lively
chase being given Col sam E. Whitmire
the versatile newspaper man and hotel
expert, by lovely stagestruck blonde.
who at last accounts was only four hours
behind the genial Sam. The accounts
given Of this chase and the rapid pace at
which the blonde was gaining on him
reached brunswick yesterday morning
and since then the keenest interest has
been felt here in the probable outcome.
The published accounts state that the
girl, who is described as a beautiful
blonde, and who goes under the name of
Marie Rice, claiming to be a relative of
Rice, the manager of "1492, " now running
in New York, is laboring under halluci-
nation that Whitmire had agreed to star
her this season in "l492,' the season
dating from Sept. l next, and that not be-
ing able to hear from her supposed-to-be-
manager, she grew suspicious and started
on searching tour. The peculiar feat
ures OF the case and the connection of
Whitmire with it make the story doubly
interesting.
Whitmire is one of the most pictur-
esque figures in Georgia journalism, and
one of the best liked men that ever ans
wered call for copy" in an editorial
Office. As man he has always been
known as thoroughly honorable and has
friends by the score in every city in
Georgia.
His friends here had despaired of see
ing him again, but now they hope he will
reach this port in safety and receive the
welcome awaiting him. The general i'm
preston is entertained here that Whit
m1re generously, but automatically
promised some stage-str uck girl to star
her, in view of his success with the COM
edy company, but no one believes he in
tended to disappoint any one, and all hope
to hear that he has amicablv arranged
matters with the maiden ere this.

Oscar johnson, TO say that he is a sober,

Mr.. Way, father of the injured young
lady. that he voluntarily urged the impo-
sition of no penalty.
