WASHINGTON, April u.-From an
early hour this morning the capitol
has been besieged by crowds of people,
who have waited rather impatiently.
When the outer doors were finally
thrown open, there was a ru b for the
the stair cases leading to the galleries.
At this hour, (9 q. m the sections
open to the public were filled in q very
few minutes. Atten O'Clock, there
were no vacant places in any of the
galleries, except one which had been
assigned to the use of the diplomatic
corps, and two front rows of the sena-
torial galleries, which were reserved
for the use of the families of the chief
executive and the vice president. The
bitter disappointment of last Wednes-
day had no effect in repressine the
eagerness of the vast crowds today.
Women are in the majority, the bright
costumes of many of them helped to
lend an air of gaiety to scene which
is liable itself to become momeptous
and solemn, as there is strong possibili-
ty of letting "slip the dogs of wsr."
The foreign relations committee held
no meeting this morning.

LIFE INSURANCE HOSPITALS.
Proposition to Look After Policy
Holders In the ArIny


Milwaukee. Wis, May 16.-President
Thomas H Bowles of the National AS
ISOLATION of Life Underwriters, today
issued a letter to the presidents of all
the life insurance companies of the
United States. in order to establish a
cooperative hospital service for the
benefit of policy holders who are taking
part in the present conflict between the
United States and Spain. The letter
in part is as follows:
In the line of progress and scientific
development that has so marked the
history of the American life companies
of today, it would appear only natural
and proper that the scope of their use
fulneSs should be extended al this time
in q patriotic effort to give care and
protection to those of their policy hold
ers who may be called to battle, in
providing a hospital service for those
who may become sick and wounded.
While the government will provide such
service as far as possible, the insur-
an6e companies can offer valuable aid
in looking after their own policy hold
ers. In the event of an extended war
in Cuba. it might be decided to locate
a hoSpita! at Key West and one on
he island of Cuba. This hospital serv-
ice could also be made a bureau for

ance companies to the subject prior to

REBUTTAL TESTIMONY
EXPERTS INTRODUCED TO SHOW
THAT DOUGLASS Is SANE.
The Prisoner Sits Sullen Through the
Trial, Unmoved By the Most Dam
aging Evidence of His Guilt and
Responsibility.

In the Douglass trial yesterday, the
prosecution continued with rebuttal
testimony, including that of number
of experts. The defendants manner
remains unchanged through all the tes-
timony, some of which was quite dam
aging to his cause. He sits apart
from all others, paying little attention
to the case. His beard has been al
lowed to grow, and gives him some
what unkemDt appearance.
His fingers are frequently run
through his beard or hair, and now and
then the prisoner casts furtive glance
at the witness, then his head will fall
forward on his hand, and he will re-
main a long time in this attitude. The
testimony was opened yesterday by the
prosecution putting on a number OF
acquaintance of the defendant, to
prove that he was of sane actions and
habits. Among these were Mrs. L. S.
Starke. r. NJ. Breeder, Mary Mosely,
Fred Tout, Hannah Leavi-t, Mary
Shumers, Mrs. ]. Olsen, Mrs. Josephine
Larsen, Lars Larsen, James c. Wangs-
gard.
Hypothetical questions were put 10
DR.. Fernlund similar to the previous
questions OF this character. The cir
cUmstances attendant to the murder
and the previous acts of Douglass were
related from the standpoint of the
prosecution, and the question asked if
he considered the actions of the defend
ant those of a sane man. The answer
was that he considered the conduct
that of a sane man. Cross -examination
failed to elicit anything materially
new.
DR.. Il. J. Powers was another expert
witness for the prosecution. The hypo-
thetical question was put to him, and
the answer was that he considered the
actions those of a sane person. The
discrimination was searching, but
in general the first statement of the
doctor was adhered to.
DR.. E. NJ. Conroy was the next wit
ness. His testimony was considered
especially pertinent, from the fact that
he had attended Douglass while he was
in the hospital four months with a
broken leg. His reply to the hypothet-
ical question was that the acts were
those of a sane person.

CitY Council.

The feature of last nights city coun-
ell meeting was the unexpected change
in the vote of Brewer in the vote on the
merchants license ordinance. This
question came up on the veto of the
mayor and the question of sustaining
it. Brewer, who has heretofore voted
against the ordinance, voted for pass
ing il over the mayors veto, and conse-
quently, the ordinance passed.
Those voting against it were Ash,
Cullen and Williams. The remaining
seven were, Tor the ordinance. II is
almost certain that the enforcement
OF the ordinance viii be resisted by or
ganiZed opposition from the merchants
and others interested.
The council also passed an ordinance
granting TO Messrs. Eccles, Spencer,
Dee, AIatson, Scowcroft and others a
franchise to operate a telephone sys-
TEN in Ogden. The features of this or
dinance were that il is to be in force
for % years. The company has so days
in which TO accept the terms of the
franchise and u months in which to
complete the system. The maximum
charges shall be 81 per month for resi-
dences, SO per quarter in business
houses. Where five or more instru-
ments are on one line, the charges
should not exceed 81 per month per in
strument.
The claim of ]. c. Armstrong for
costs Of the paving tax suit, amounting
TO S27S.35. with interest since 1890 at s
per cent, was allowed.
The petition of Orson Riser and 9th
ers for another fire hydrant was denied,
as the council will not extend the water
system in any respect till the water
suit is settled.
The petition of Richard Hall asking
that bicycle riders be kept off the side
walk on North Washington avenue was
denied
Chief of Police Davenport reported
that he had complied with the provi-
sion of the ordinance for cutting down
the force of patrolmen to three and
specified the three patrolmen to be re-
tanned as Brown. Murray and Layne,
and notified all the others of their dis
niSsal.
The pound-keeper was allowed $50
for four months salary.
Willard Snow claimed that the city
street department had uncovered his
water pipes in street grading, and he
asked that the city sink them deeper.
The matter was referred to the COM
mittee on streets.
Communications were received from
William Glasmann and from the Bell
Telephone company, each requesting
the. return of their respective checks
for SIS, deposited when they submitted
their requests for telephone franchises.
The requests were granted.
An ordinance introduced by Cullen
passed its third reading. II provides
for changes in certain technical fixtures
in the plumbing of buildings, viz: the
use OF siDhon jets.
The resolution was passed dismissing
the charges against Officer Reisner.
