A REMARKABLE TRIBUTE.
North Eni~otu's Legislature HOnOrs tht
Memory of Senmtnr HmnsbrOuEE's VIII.

North I.ni<otn's Legislature HOnOrs the
Memory of senator HunsbrOuEE's Wife
The recent meeting of the North Dakota
legislature in joint memorial session to
express the common sorrow that prevails
throughout North Dakota over the death
of Mrs. Hansbrough, the wife OF the senior
Senator from that state, is perhaps the
first instance Of the kind on record. There
is not in mind similar occurrence as
tranSpiring in any other commonwealth OF
the Union, and it viii ever stand as
credit to the new north state that its iegis-
lature is the first to meet in joint memorial
session TO pay tribute TO the memory OF
woman. The proceedings of this remark
able asSembiage We're OF 4 most interesting
nature, the speeches by prominent Sena-
tors and members of the Legislature be-
ing unusually eloquent and touching. Up
on the announcement of the death CT Mrs.
HanSbrCUgh both houses of the leg slatu, G,
then in session at Bismarck, Immediate Y
adjourned, committees of the two branches
We're appointed to draft resolutions, and
week later the two houses met in joint ses-
sion.
Lieut.. Gov. Worst presided, and made
feeling address, speaking of the suffering
uncomplainingly endured by Mrs. Hans
brough fer over four years. The joint
committee on resolutions presented its
port, extending the sympathy of the legis-
lature of the state to the Senator in the
time of his bereavement. Remarks were
made. in seconding the resolution. by Rep
resentativeS ProSSer of Ramsay county and
Edwards of Cass, and Senators Day of
Ramsay, Gregory of Ward, Stevens Of
Dickey, and Burke of Rolette, after which
the resolutions were adopted by rising
vote and this remarkable legislative ses-
sion adjourned. The friends of Senator
Hansbrough in Washington who had the
pleasure of knowing Mrs. Hansbrough in
her life have been deeply grateful for this
touching mark of the esteem in which her
memory is held by her husbands asso-
ciates in his state.

LOCAL PRODUCE MARKET.
Butter Declines and Eggs and Poultry
Advance.


With few exceptions the market of the
the preceding week. In most products
wholesale prices remained, on the whole,
absolutely stationary, the only marked
changes observable being in butter. eggs
and poultry, in which prices slightly ad-
yanced. But, while it is true that only
live lambs and small and neat dressed hogs
also showed a slight advance, the market
in comparatively all products remained
firm and steady, there being, no overpro-
duction sufficient in any to weaken the
market as whole Throughout the week
the demand exhausted the supply in no
product, and Indications point to q gener
ally stronger demand for all staple stocks.
While the weather was not. favorable to
an active market it was not disagreeable
enough to seriously influence either ship
perS or purchasers.
Butter was disappointing, buyers de-
Ginning except where necessary. That and
the fact that receipts continued liberal
were responsible for an unsettled market.
dull and far from strong. Fancy. fresh
creameries and extra firsts continued at
reduced prices, and for that reason those
grades were much sought for, the lower
grades being correspondingly neglected.
to prevent accumulations. Country roll
was of poor quality and sold low. Fair to
good creamery fell from Is to 16. prime
New York tubs from 20 to 10 and good
New York tubs from Is to 16.
Eggs showed an advance, the market
gradually stiffening throughout the week.
Near by fresh and near by western fresh
and southern advanced point. from "a to
% and from % to "a, respectively, the
prices for other grades remaining sta
tionary.
In poultry the market not only remained
firm, but it gives good Indications of so
continuing. For that reason liberal ship
mcnts are advised All grades of turkeys
advanced from ] to cents 10 cents per
pound being the average price. Chickens,
ducks and geese showed a similar ad-
vance.
While there was a good demand for we'll
fattened cattle, common stock was diff
cult to get rid of. Choice spring and me-
dunn lambs advanced from $3.50 to $3.50.
and small and neat hogs, dressed, from s.
to $3.50. In dressed hogs a stronger mar
ket thar that of the preceding week ruled.
Calves, prime ones. were scarce, and
firm market resulted, prices having an up
ward tendency. Fer common grades, sta
tionary prices.
In oranges and other fruits. fresh and
dried, in potatoes, onicns and similar prod
ucts. and in hay, straw and grain, there
vas no observable change in supply. de-
mand or prices.

RAILROAD BILLS PASSED
Favorable Action Taken by the House Late
Yesterday Afternoon.
The Washington and Maryland and
the Burnt Mills and Sandy Spring
Roads Authorized.

The House yesterday afternoon passed
the bill amending the Incorporation of the
Maryland and Washington Railway Com
rany. AS explained TO the House by Mr..
Rusk, the bill is an amendment Ito an ex-
listing charter extending the time for the
completion of this road and arranging the
manner in which it may enter the District.
The road proper will be built in the state
of Maryland, and will come into the Dis
trict by way of Rhode Island avenue eN-
tended, the right of way to be acquired
either by purchase by condemnation.
The road is to connect with an existing
railroad, the lexington and Soldiers Home
line, at North Capitol street This road.
therefore, does not ask for The right of
way upon any streets in the city proper.
1t will bring its passengers from Maryland
to the District line and they will pass into
the city over the lexington road, which is
already in operation. l viii state further.
said Mr. Rusk, that this road is the Wash
l.gton erd of the contemplated road in
course of construction between Baltimore
and Washington, which will be completed
in year two, and will, of course, make
| q great reduction in the rate of fare be-
| tween the two cities"
No Overhead Trolley.
An effort was made by Mr.. Haines of
New York to permit the of the over
head trolley within the city limits, but the
motion was lest.
The bill to incorporate the Washington,
Burnt Mills and Sandy Spring Railway
Company was also passed. AS explained
Ly Mr.. Mckaig-."rhis is railroad started
in Maryland, ccmirg into the District for
the purpose of connecting with the Eek
ington Brightwood road, by the per-
mission of the &C mmiss!onerS OF the Dis
trct of Columbia This bill bill passed
beth the Serate and House in the Fifty
second Congress, but failed of approval for
the want of time. 1t is a trolley road
which runs into the country northeast of
the city, through a fine agricultural coun-
try and it is intended as road to develop
that region. When the original bin was
referred to the Commissioners they dis
agreed to the route which the road
should take in coming Into the city. The
incorpo, u tors of the road went before the
Comm: ssioners, and agreed with the Com
mssioners to accept the route herein
named connecting with the lexington or
BrEhtwood road whichever they may de-
sire
The bill was amended SO as to prohibit
the running of freight cars into the city,
and granting the charter for fifty years,
instead of making it perpetual.
The bill to incorporate the Washington
and Marlboro railway was taken UP, but
the hour for the Friday evening recess ar
rived before the bill was passed.
