Washington, June 3.-The senate COM
mittee on foreign relations did not take
action IN its meeting today on Senator
Morgan's Cuban joint resolution. There
was no quorum until few minutes be-
fore the close of the meeting, when 1t
would have been impossible to have Sc
cured vote if there had been nothing
else in the way. 1t appeared from the
Informal discussion which took place
that some of the members Of the com
mittee which expressed sympathy with
the objects of the resolution, were
doubtful whether it would not cause the
Cubans and Americans in Cuba more
harm 10 report the resolution and have
the senate adjourn without action taken
Senator Morgan, however, impressed
the importance of the action and de-
clined to accept The opinion that the SEN
ate would not vote on the resolution If
it should have an opportunity to do so
before adjourning.

A Aneefacmlnr widow.

A young widow in London engaged
the services of a young photographer to
take her picture while she leaned weep.
ing over the tombstone of her "dear
departed" On the day appointed the
sentimental beauty went to the grave
yard and at once opened the sluices of
her great sorrow. She wept and wept
for hours, but he came not. Finally she
went dry and home and straightway
sued the photographer for the return of
the money she had paid in advance.
The artist claimed that the appoint
ment had been vague; that he went to
the cemetery and waited three hours
for her at the grave, also in vain. No,
they didn't comprimise by MARI ling
each other. The Judge rendered de.
cision against the photographer, because
"the photographer showing the undy.
ing fidelity of the pretty widow might,
If finished at the time agreed upon,
have been instrumental in procuring her
second husband" At least. So saws a
Belgian paper.

OVER THE VETO.
House Passes the River and marbo
Bill.

House Passes the River and marbOr
Bill.
Washington, June 2.-The house de.
voted itself today to the passing of the
river and barbor bill over the presi-
dents veto and to unseating, by a vote
of I62 to 80, John ]. Walsh, the Demo
cratic member from the Eighth New
York district, whose place will be filled
BY John Murray Mitchell, Republican.
Both of these actions were foregone
conclusions, hence they excited but lit
tie interest, although there was a full
house to vote on the river and harbor
bill. 1t was passed by 22o to 60, many
more votes than the two. thirds necessary
to oYerrule veto, and it was passed
without debate, although Mr. Dockery
(dem No. protested vehemently that
debate had been promised. Thirty-nine
democrats voted to override the presi-
dental objections and twenty-six repnb-
licans stood by Mr.. Cleveland. The
naval appropriation bill was reported
from conference with an agree ment on
all items but the number of battleships
incidentally, Chairman Cannon of the
committee on appropriations, predicted
that congress would adjourn late nexi
week.

Aftera Meteorite.

Topeka, Kan, June 3.-It Is possible
that there is an object that does not APP
pear On the surface In the sudden de-
parture for Alaska of Professor L. L.
Dyche, Of the Kansas State university.
During his northern trip last summer,
the professor paid a visit, while IN
Greenland, to the largest meteorite In
the world and Immediately announced
his determination. to possess it. Lieu
tenant Peery, with whom Professor
Dyche never got along very well, claim
ed the meteorite by right of discovery,
and warned the professor not to attempt
to remove 1t. As the meteorite weighs
tons, Peery's warning was of little
necessity at the time, but Professor
Dyche stated distinctly that he intend
ed within few years to return to Green.
land for the meteorite.
Last week the dispatches announced
that Lieutenant Peery would sail for
Greenland this summer to secure the
meteorite. AS soon as Professor Dyche
can reach Seattle, he too will sail for the
north pole and IT is quite probablel that
his destination Is neither Alaska nor the
north pole, but the point In Greenland
where the coveted meteorite lies.
Professor Dyehe will have the longest
route through Boring straits and the
northwest passage, but he is mans.oi
great energy and If he has in reality
arted on a race for the coveted me
teorite the chances are in favor of g
lively race to Greenland.
The meteorite is roughly estimated Il
be worth 100000.

TROUBLEIN KENTUCKY
The Senatorial Contest Is As
 surning Grave Aspect.
THE FIRST CONFLICT QUIETED.

.Ie Came About In tho House Over the
 Serious Conse q uences Will Result Un-
 less the Cooler Heads Succeed In Keep
 ing Hotheaaed Members Down.
 FRANKFORT, Feb. 2S.-For some time during the senatorial contest it had been believed that all trouble had passed and that q senator would be elected by the general assembly with out any personal conflicts between the friends of Hunter and Blackburn. but the developments Wednesday revealed the fact that unless cool heads work hard and fast blood will be shed.
 The attempt of unseating members in the house began Wednesday with the Werner Tompkins contest and after some debate an order was made to take final vote tomorrow. Then came the Kaufman-Dunlap and over this came near being personal encounter be- tweem Phelps, Democrat, and Howard, Republican, in which Swinfurth joined to help Phelps. After considerable con- fusion quietude was restored.
 The exciting scene of the house between Howard. Phelps and Swim furth soon filled the Hobbies and the ladies who already occupied seats were so much interested that they never thought of leaving. The senators heard of the warm times in the house and few of them rushed over to sec the fun.
 There is no doubt that many of these present were prepared for trouble and it is fortunate that cooler heads suo- ceeded in preventing a conflict.
 The rollcall of the general assembly shows 134 members present; necessary to choice 69. There were only two pairs. This was one of the largest at- tendances of the session.
 The ballot resulted: Hunter, 61; Blackburn. 62, Carlisle, 3; MoCreary, 8; Yerles, 1; Holt, ); Lewis, l. Bate, 1.
 A resolution has been prepared by the gold standard Democrats who have been supporting Senator Blackburn for reelection to the United States senate asking his withdrawal A caucus will be held on Monday and some other can- didate selected.
 The goldmen claim they have assur- ances from Judge Petrie and from two other Republicans that they will join the Democrats at any time in an effort to elect gold standard Democrat, and they call. on Senator Blaokburn's per sonal followers to unite with them in an effort to induce tho senator to with draw from tho race.
 If Senator Blackburn refuses to with draw pronunciamento will be issued next week, and it is claimed 25 Demo- crats will vote for some other Demo- crat.

 1T was amused at woman on train coming into Washington from the south, ? said a gentleman. .It showed novel phase of the new woman ques- tion.
 At Go1dsbore a man got on tho train with baby in his arms. A woman fol- lowed, but paid no attention to the man. Tho baby was evidently sick, and the father, d North Carolina mountaineer, paced up and down the car trying to quiet tho child Every lady on the car except tho woman who got on the train at Goldsboro was interested. Gonsidera- ble speculation was indulged in as to the father and child, the consensus of opinion boing that he had just lost his wife and was taking the baby to it's grandparenss After two or three hours tho woman who boarded the train at the same time the man did spoke to him, and he tlf9n passed on, fondling the baby
 "A benevolent looking old lady seat ed near tho woman, curious to know something about tho matter. said:
 q Tho child seems to ho sick
 !" Yes m.
 "' I saw you speak to tho father. Do you know him?'
 !" 'Orter; he's my husban.
 Do you mean to say that you are that child's mother and let the baby suffer that way?'
 He's jess as able to tote it as I be. He's jess as much kin to it as be, and tho woman turned unconcernedly to the window, while tho man continued to walk and dandle the child. "-Washing ten Star.
