SUPREME COURT ADJoURNs.
A Large Amount of Business Disposed of
 During the Term.

Washington, May 24.-After render- ing final decisions in thirty-six cases and giving attention to other business incident to the last sitting of the term, the United States supreme court ad- journed to-day until next October. When the court crier announced the
 final adjournment for the term there were apparently 3S0 cases on the dock ct undisposed of, but there were actually 359 cases, ,21 having already been argued and submitted.
 This is a smaller number than the records of the court have shown for thirty years. At the conclusion of the term ending year ago there were 533 cases undisposed of and since then 2S5 have been added. Of this number 437 have been finally disposed of and the principal labor done in 21 others, in- cluded in the 21 cases which have been argued, several are of importance. Among them are: The Nebraska max imum freight rate case, the controver- sy between the Boudin Power brake and the Westinghouse air brake conn., panies as to the validity of the latter's intention; the Alabama Midland case, involving the validity of the long and short haul clause of the interstate commerce act; the Southern Pacific land and two or three important land grant cases.

BANK VRECKER JOHNSON.
Will Plead Guilty and Accept Punish
 ... ment.

Indianapolis, May 24.-"Johnny' Johnson, wrecker of the Logansport bank, who is in jail in this city, was asked to-day if he had been preparing for years for the failure and if he had saved large sum of money, as alleg- ed. Whatever the facts are," Johnson replied, twill appear when I am taken before Judge Baker. I can say that never in my life have I had other than honest motives and an honest heart. I had no dishonest purpose, and now that I have done one wrong Is 1t not better for me to accept punishment and the sentence of the court, bear up and try to right this wrong? Should not my friends lend me strength by their sym pathy? I think I am doing right in fol- lowing the course of pleading guilty and taking punishment"
 Johnson says he lost no money in speculations. He does not specifically say whether he lost 1t all. His wife asked permission to occupy a cell in jail with him. This was denied her The federal grand jury will indict John son, and the probabilities are that he will plead guilty and be sent to the Columbus penitentiary before the week ends. ...

THE HONOR OF SPAIN.
Premier Canovas Says 1t Cannot be Sold
 Tetuan Incident In the Senate.


 Madrid, May 24.-In the senate to- day, in reply to a conservative senator who asked why the liberals were ab- sent, Senor Canovas Del Castillo, the premier said:
 Tn the opinion of the government the matter which the liberals plead as an excuse for their absence from the senate is an incident of a purely per- sonal character, which has already been arranged The government re- spects the opinion of the liberal minor- ity, but rejects their theory of the in- cident and their demands for the resig- nation of the minister of foreign af- fairs, as contrary to the constitution of parliament.
 Formerly governed in the absence of a minority; but under the present circumstances the responsibility be- longs to all parties. It is impossible to face the negotiations now on foot, with out serious detriment, if we change the foreign minister.
 The Marquis of Perales, on behalf of the dissident conservatives, declared that under the circumstances they felt compelled to absent themselves until the liberals had received satisfaction.
 In the chamber of deputies the pre- mier repeated the statement he had made in the senate, adding that he re- gretted the absence of the liberals, be- cause it prevented Senor Sagasta from defending himself against certain accu- a,.te, r1F ;,, depreciation of one of his speeches. Senor Canovas referred to the bad im- pression which had been produced in this way at Washington where, he said, it seemed to be supposed that the sale of Cuba was possible thing. Spain said Senor Canovas, lis not a nation of merchants capable of selling its honor"
 Senor Francisco Silvela, leader of the dissident conservatives in the chamber, who quarreled with Senor Canovas in 1891 over the expediency of reforming the municipal abuses in Madrid, &C., cused the Duke of Tetuan of grave error, which could not be righted by a few eloquent words. He said the for eign minister ought to expiate his of- fence by resigning. In the course of his speech he described the action of the United States senate in recognizing the belligerency of the Cuban insurgents as a great iniquity' and characterized the diplomatic conduct of the govern ment as altogether blameworthy, add ing an expression of his doubt as to the intelligence of Senor Canovas in retain ing the Duke of Tetuan under the cir cumstances.

TdILORS ARE CONFIDENT.
Leader Schoenfeld Says That the Strike
 Will be Short Lived.


 New York, May 24-Leader Schoen- field of the striking garment makers said tonight that he was sanguine that the strike would be short-lived and would end in a victory for the tail DTS. Three large contractors have al- ready capitulated and number are ex- pected to agree to terms tomorrow or next days.
 Notice was given the United Brother hood of Tailors tonight that three thousand members of the Pants Mak- CTS union would strike tomorrow. A number of the progressive tailors have signified their willingness to join issues with the strikers, but the union as a whole is opposed to a strike at the pres ent juncture. The Lithuanian tailors tonight decided to remain out until the demand of 25 per cent. increase in the daily wage scale is conceded by the contractors.

ORATORS AND On4r0RY.
Rev. r. Stanley Root Speaks Before the
 Chautauqua Union.


 Chautauqua Union.
 The Chautauqua union was addressed last evening by Rev. F. Stanley Root on the subject of Orators and Oratory," The address was given in Republican hall on Temple street. The speaker was introduced by MT. James Howarth of the union.
 He said that while it was undoubted- ly true that orators were born and not made it would be found that most of the great orators prepared their speech es with the greatest labor and pains taking.
 The requirements for oratory given by Goldsmith, speak without fear or fa- vor and be in sympathy with your subject-are not broad enough. The eXtempore sermons preached by Spur geon while powerful in their effect would not be selected by any educated man as classic sermons. On the other hand, the sermons of Wendell Phillips are classics and were the product of much painstaking and thought. Many of the great orators reWrote their ora tions many times over again.
 Some speeches listed as orations do not use the sublimity of thought requi- site to give them that title. As the greatest English orator, the speaker se- lected the elder Pitt, the Earl of Chatham, contemporary with him and great orators though far from being his equals were Sheridan and Fox. Burke was also selected as one of the greatest of orators.
 As the greatest orator on this side of the water Webster was selected by the speaker as the greatest With him were Clay and Calhoun and his equal at the law Mason.
 Some say We have no orators now as then, a statement which is part true and part false. As for the effect that they produce we have to-day no men the equal of these old time orators, but in their understanding of affairs of the day such men as Blaine, Garfield, Sher- man and Reed are their superiors.
 Thomas B. Reed was selected as prob ably the ablest orator of to-day in this country.
 Robert Ingersoll while a great orator, his views in matters of religions are hopelessly absurd
 The speaker gave many interesting incidents and facts about the lives of the various orators and criticised their literary qualities.
 The Chautauqua union holds it's an- nual election of officers June 23.

KING AnKIvEs IN BOSTON.
Crowd of ,5OO People Await His Coming in the Union Station.


 Boston, May 24.-Under the strict sur veilance of Inspector Collins of the To- cal police force, Albert M. King, the wayWard messenger of the Boylston bank, arrived in this city tonight, ac- companied by his father, Samuel M. King, and his attorney, John K. Berry.
 The trip from Pennington, Me-, took exactly seven hours, and other than the crowds at the different stations at which the train stopped the Journey was without incident. The party left the scene of Kings arrest at 2:30 and rode to Portland, where Inspector Col lins managed to evade a greater part of the hundreds of curious persons, and the party were soon in the compart- ments of the Pullman Yankee" of the Boston express, which was standing on the adjoining track Here the party went to the refreshment room in the station, for the wait was thirty-fye minutes at length King did not want anything to eat, and so was left alone in the car. During the remainder of the trip King had nothing to say, and he paid no attention to the crowds at every station passed
 At Portsmouth there was a short wait, but a curious crowd outside tried hard to get a look at King. At the Union station in this city crowd of nearly fifteen hundred surged at the gates as the headlight of the engine flashed in sight outside the depot. By the time the train had come to a stop half the crowd had managed to get in- side the gates and crowded about the Pullman. It took a force of nearly a dozen policemen, assisted by as many trainmen, to keep the crowd back, but again Inspector Collins managed to get his charge through without any hind rance.
 A carriage was in waiting over on the baggage room side of the depot, and the party was rapidly driven to the was asked a few formal questions, his description taken and other formalities gone through; then after a short con- sultation with Deputy Hanscom his father and Lawyer Berry bade him good night and lie was taken into the prison and locked up. Tomorrow he will be arraigned in the municipal court, but as his lawyer will probably waive examination he will be bound over to the June term of the grand jury without further hearing.
 MT. Samuel King expressed himself as being greatly relieved that the trip was over, but other than this he had nothing to say regarding his son.
