THE GROCERS PICNIC.
About 800 People Enjoyed 1t Yester-
day.
There Was a Big Dinner-An Exciting Bal
A Good Time Generally.

A Good Time Generally.
Yesterday WAS the long expected and
arranged for day of the grocers' picnic and
luckily it proved as fine day as heart
could wish. Several hundred ladies and
gentlemen took the steamer Merryconeag at
nine O'Clock after having formed in Monu-
ment square, and marched to Portland Pier,
headed by the American Cadet Dand. AT
Harpswell the programme of a dinner at
the Merryconeag house and of various
sports and games and enjoyments was very
successfully carried out. The number was
so large that they overfiowed into the Law
son house and dinner was served simultan-
eously at both hotels. The Merryconeag was
well filled and she is licensed to carry $50
people. 1t is estimated that there were
about 300 in the party.
The dinner was very excellent and Land
lords Reed and Alexander did everything
for the comfort of their guests. Following
is the menu: Eu6
Steamed CLANS.
Clam Chowder.
Baked Haddock. Tomato Sauce.
Boiled Ham. Boiled Tongue.
Roast Beef, Dish Gravy.
Roast Chicken, Gilbet Sauce.
Mashed Potatoes. Green Corn.
String Beans Cucumbers.
Broiled Live Lobster.
Steamed B5n 3 Pudding Wae P Sauce
Vanilla Ice Cream
Assorted Cake.
Fruit. Tea. Coffee.
Among the sports was of course the newt
able and glorious base ball game. This con-
test was fiercely waged between the
Butchers and the s'Grocers,'' and strange
as it may seem, the men of llood were de-
feated by the mild hammered tradesmen. 1t
was good game too, we'll worthy of pro-
fessionals as far as it went. which was only
six innings. Following is the list of players,
and the score by innings:

MIR. Vest then proceeded with his
description OF the diffiulties in connec-
lion with sugar schedule. Under the
Wilson bill, as reported to the house
| from the committee it carried O duty
and bounty. When it was in the house
free eagar was inserted. The finance
committee prepared bill which gave
no ditfersntial benefit to the truet; and
| yet" said Mr.. Vsst, with bitterness,
"they call US the creatures OF tie sugar
trust"
The senator paused for q moment and
then with increased earnestnees added
"Slanderous lies."
Mr.. Vest said he would not enter into
the charges that the senate was party
to the fight between the president and
the senator from Maryland (Gorman).
He (Vest) had his strong differences
with the senator on the tariff, and had
written q letter long ago to the Grey
stone club stating his objections to the
policy OF Mr.. German and supporting
Cleveland for his position on revenue
reform.
But" continued Mr.. Vest. 81 belong
to no man; | belong TO no faction, and
am neither Montague nor Capulet, York
or Lancaster. l can never follow one
who does violence to the principles of
the Democratic party"
Mr.. Mills said in conclusion be hoped
the senator from Tennessee would with
draw his motion to refer.
Mr.. Harris replied he had great re-
spect for the opinion Of Mr.. Mills, but
in view of the letter of Mr.. Carlisle, he
would prefer at this time TO take his
judgment, rather than that OF Mr.. Mills,
and would insist on his motion.
Mr.. Villas replied to some OF the OBJ
servations OF MIR. Vest, taking issue with
him. Villas drifted into the discussion
the sugar trust, aud finally declared
that the bill should not 60 TO the finance
committee.
I'll the bill is not referred to the
finance committee" asked Mr.. Mitchell
(Rep.) of Oregon, lido you favor the bill
So it came from the house?"
Mr.. Villas replied he considered suga.
legitimate object of revenue, but the
people should be rid OF the trust. How
ever, rather than have the trust profit
TO the extent of untold millions, he
would be willing to sacrifice the revenue
from sugar.
Mr.. Mandsrson (Rep.) of Nebraska
said if the senators on the other side
of the house had concluded, be would
move to adjourn, but at the request OF
Mr.. Dolph, however, he allowed
motion to 60 into executive session to
take. precedence.
Mr.. Gray (Dem.) OF Delaware dc.
named the yeas and nays and the motion
was defeated--18 to "a.
The session concluded with o humor-
GUS passage at arms between Messrs.

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.

Discussion OF tho Southern Pacific's
Ciatm for 81 500, 900.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-Hsrdly q rip.
pie of interest was exhibited in the
house today. There were passed the
senate bill to extend the time for
constructing railroad bridge across the
Columbia at Vancouver, Wash. Some
interest was caused by the reading of q
resolution of Mr.. Black, reciting the de-
pletion Of gold in the treasury, and in
structiug the coinage committee to re.
port bill for the proper "use and
avail' of the silver in the treasury, and
instructing the rules committee to re-
port rule for its prompt consideration.
1t went to the box in the regular order.
The conference report on the general
deficiency bill announced an agreement
on all amendments but one, the appro-
priation of 81, 300, 900 to pay final judg-
ments of the court of claims, among
them the decree in favor of the Southern
Pacific Railroad company. The report
on the deficiency bill was also agreed to,
with the reservation OF the one item OF
the Southern Pacific claim.
Mr.. Mcguire of California delivered q
vigorous speech in opposition to the pay
ment of over 1880, 900 to this company.
He maintained the Southern Pacific
company was not company at all, in
the true sense of the word, but was
simply the agency of q copartnership

found very exciting state OF affairs.
Macy had evidently been drinking.
He had loaded shotgun, which he
threatened to use upon his wife and
children. He was creating so much
neics, and became go dangerous that he
had to be taken to the county Jail.
1t is thought Macy is mentally de-
