Berlin, June 27.-Throughout the week
the Reichstag has made good progress in
its consideration of the governments civil
code bill and the measure, which passed
its second reading this afternoon, is now
certain TO pass all of the stages necessary
for 1t TO become la W before the end of
the present session.
The only debates that have attracted
even a partly full house this week have
been upon these clauses OF the civil code
bill relating To civil marriages and tue
property gifts OF married women and the
game laws.
The bill proposes to make civil marriage
compulsory. and in opposing this pro-
vision DR.. Lieber, the leader OF the Cen
rists. expressed regret that the commission
to which the bill was referred had not
treated marriage as a sacrament. to W hich
the assent of the civil authorities was un-
necessary.
Other Centrist deputies. as well as Gen.
Won Room and several other Conservatives.
supported the view OF DR.. Lieber. holding
that the civil marriage clause was deros-
atory to the office of the clergy.
Herr Nieberding. imperial minister Of
Justice. denied that the government had an v
desire to place Il mere civil marriage upon
anequal footing with u religious ceremony,
tNtS WISH W tDtbe Will
the churches; yet Tor many reasons. he said
II was desirable that the clause should be
naintained. The clause was finally Iassed.
INSANITY NO GROUND.
The Centrists aftcrward scored vic
tory. however, by succeeding in having
eliminated frcm the bill the provision max
ing incurablc insanity Il ground for divorce.
A motion offered by Herr Bebel, Socialist.
giving married women control of their own
pr, pcrty. was rejected, hut another Social
isi anne ndment fixing twenty one years
as the limit Df age beyond which parental
q nscnt to marry was not required was
adj, pied.
Prince Bismarck is of the opinion tina the
civil code ought to have received more
matu consideration. and as a protest
against the hurried manner In which the
bill was bundled the ex- chancellor directed
Count Herbert Bismarck, his eldest sou, to
leave the house when the first vote upon
the measure was taken in the Re;chstag
This direction was obeycd aud Count
Herbert's demonstration in leaving the
Ci amber, followed by ten Conservative
q, pu,ies, created u me meEtary sensation.
Prince Hohenlohe's parliamentary din
ner, which was gwen by the chancellor
Tuesday evening, and Is still being talked
about as having been sparsely attended, in
contrast to the ministerial dinner, given
during tue PERIOD or Prince Bls;narcb's
occupancy of the office of imperial chan
ceior, ai which the fate of the parlia-
meniary measures was wont to be de-
cided.
The presence OF DR.. Stoecker. ex-court
chaplain, bearing very lightly his fall
from court and political party favor, was
also noticed and commented upon. Another
subject upon the occasion was the at
tendance OF Baron Rcidel. finance minister
OF the kingdom of Bavaria. who is
sociated with a project for the CONVEX
sion OF the imperial securities. a fact which
is most remarkable in that the scheme has
hitherto been strongly opposed by the
Bavarian government.

A committee went up to the baseball
park yesterday to see how the citizens
were responding to the invitation: Don't
ride on the Ninth street cars From the
report it is working very peaceful result.
1t was estimated that the crowd at the
mark was about six thousand. The COM
mittee took position at T and Ninth streets.
They figured it out that the Ninth street cars
carried downtown only $50 passengers,
while the crowd was disappearing from
the grounds Ordinarily they would have
carried about two thousand.
The talk on the streets and i'm the stores
is generally in favor Of the men. and there
ia no denying the fact that If their opinions
are put into practice. as it is on the Ninth
street line. the company may lose thousands
of dollars pending the unpleasantness.
: A special committee OF the men will wait
today on one of the most prominent men
in the District and endeavor to get from
him both an expression of opinion ON the
situation and some suggestion as to the
attitude of the men during the fight.

THE LITTLE ROCK BASE BALL TEAM COULDN'T CUT THE
 MUSTARD.
They Played the Baby Act. Jumped on the Umpire and Quit the
 Game.

The Dickinson base ball team play cd beautiful ball Monday afternoon, but they were mighty anxious to quit in the tenth inning when the score stood 10 to 10. The umpire accommodated them and called the game draw. Yesterday it was a fizzle The prize crawfishes in the goverement exhibit at Washington couldn't have accomplished double back action movement with more alacrity. Success is the sine qua non want to play unless they are sure of winning. They could not win from the Pine City boys and they said, "We'll quit" The gentle response was, "Quit and be ---!''
 This is how it happened. Every thing was lovely and the goose hung high, with her eggs for the visitors. The score was 10 to and the 10 was ''ourn." That made all the differ ence in the world. A three bagger was knocked right over the head of the first baseman. The umpire call ed it a fair ball and the game ended. Of course the people were disgusted. It was playing the baby act in q very discreditable manner.
 If the Dickenson men ever expect to play in our back yard again it would be well to remember that our cellar door has nails in it.

Master Joseph Mooney Falls From a Tree and Sustains Serious But not Fatal
 Injuries.

Late yesterday afternoon Master Joseph Mooney, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Mooney fell from a tree on Sixth Avenue, and was severely hurt. The injuries will probably not be lasting, but for the time are quite serious. The fall was from tree and of about thirty feet in height. The unfortunate boy was nncon- seious for almost an hour,and had it not been for the fact that he fell into the street where the dust was so deep, the accident would doubtless have proved fatal. The young man was resting well this morning and his physicians stated that the unfor- tunate occurance would not probab- ly bring about any serious result.
