GrOsyenor Rcnominatcd.-The Hon
Charles II. Grosvenor was renominated for
Congress by his admiring constituents yes
terday without opposition. At the same
time General Grosvenor explained to the
convention that he was aware CT the con-
ditions in his district. and he appreciated
the fact that soon it will be proper foi
him to step aside and permit some young
er man to take his place Presumably he
means not to again be a candidate. and
with that understanding the fnpertinent
Youngsters Of the district permitted him
TO have clear field this year. The des-
patches briefly relate that General GrOs-
yenor satisfactorily explained 10 his con
stituents the necessity which brought
about the small tariff proposed for Porto
Rico evidently meaning the OXnard bill.
The telegraph has not yet brought the de-
tails of General GrOsvenor's satisfactory
explanation" and when it does the nation
will be treated to a rare burst Of conf
dence from the Administration mouth

man has not thus far deigned 10 vouch-
safe this explanation in Washington.
though he has talked great deal about
the Porto Rican bill. Evidently be has
reserved for his constituents the first an
nuuncement cf the necessity which
brought about the small tariff proposed
for Porto Rico Ii is hinted however. that
General Grosvenor has told the Ohiosns
that the Tariff bill was framed solely for
the purpose of protecting the helples,

A BIG FORTUNE INVOLVED.
Durkee Heirs Begin Legal Proceed
inEs Against Secretary Gage.

A petition has been presented to the
Supreme Court of the District asking that
Lyman J. Gage, Secretary of the Treasury
CT the United States. be compelled to turn
over to the heirs Of Charles Durkee. for
merry Governor OF Utah, certain bonds of
the Central Pacific Railroad Company, ag-
gregatins S6i,s23.512. The petitioner is
Leonard C. Biaisdell, the attorney in fact
of the heirs OF the alleged original owner
of the bonds, and is represented by Thomas
]. Mackey, formerly a circuit judge in
South Carolina.
The petition cites that the bonds in
question were. in the year 1854, seen in
the United States Treasury, but how C..
when they came TO be placed there the
petitioner is unable to say.
In calling the matter TO the attention of
Chief Justice Bingham. Of the Supreme
Court of the District, a few days ago, Mir.
Mackey stated that so far as is known the
bonds in dispute were purchased by Charles
Durkee at a very low price in 1870. From
that time until 1854, when the bonds were
seen in the Treasury, it appears that ali
sight of them was lost, and there is moth
ing to show how they passed from Dur
kee to the possession of the Treasury au-
thorities.
After hearing the petition, Chief Justice
Bingham declined to issue rule against
| the Secretary of the Treasury. requiring
him to show cause why he should not turn
over the bonds in question 10 the petition
! or. He, however. informed Mr. Mackey tnat
the Secretary of the Treasury would be In
, formed of the claim, and Sci the matter
for hearing on Thursday next
In the mean time, the District Attorney,
who was absent from the city. was in

THE HOWARD DAMAGE SUIT.
Settled Ont of Court After Thirteen
Years of Litigation.

Years of Litigation.
The Howard damage suit. which has
been a matter of litigation before the
District courts during the last thirteen
years, and which was once taken to the
Supreme Court OF the United States on
appeal. was yesterday ended. The original
proceedings were filed in November 1887.
the plaintiffs, William Howard. and his
wife Laura r. Howard claiming 100000
damages against the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad Company for personal injuries
sustained by Mrs. Howard.
II was alleged in the declaration that
ON November is. 1885, Mrs. Howard was
passenger in one Of the defendants cars,
between Louisville. KY, and Washington.
D. c. While making the journey the car
In which Mrs. Howard was riding was de-
rallied. and precipitated over a steep and
high embankment. AS result of the ac-
cident. II was alleged, Mrs. Howard's spine
was permanently injured. For nearly a
year she was confined to her bed and II
was about a year afterward she filed suit
for damages.
At the time she was injured Mrs. Howard
was employed as a clerk in the Depart
ment of Agriculture and her injuries were
such as 20 incapacitate her, and require
her resigning her position.
During the time the suit has been a
matter of litigation, four attorneys.
Messrs 6. s. Henkel, C. s. Moore, ].
Francis Smith. and r. Rose Perry, have
represented the plaintiffs. The first two
named. however. have died since the pro-
ceo6ings were begun.
When the case was first called up for
trial in the circuit branch Of the Supreme
Court OF the District, the presiding JUS
tice took it from the jury. The plaintiffs
appealed to the Court of Appeals for the
District. which tribunal reversed the de-
cision OF the lower court. The case was
then called up for trial second time and
the Jury which heard the testimony rem
dered a verdict awarding the plaintiffs
the damages claimed.
The defendant noted an appeal to the
Court OF Appeals for the District. There
the judgment OF the lower court was af-
armed and an appeal was taken to the
Supreme Court Of the United States. which
tribunal in May last sustained the findings
of the lower courts. Messrs. Perry and
Smith, representing the plaintiffs. caused
to he entered upon. the records of the case

there is no purpose to make public the

proceed to Pekin by way of san Fran
cisco and Taku, accompanied by his
aides. IL has been expected that the
military forces would be concentrated
at Che Foo or some other convenient
military base, but the direction to pro-

empire. indicated a firm determination
on the part of the government au-
thoritles to have a strong military
force at the capital of the Chinese
government. The announcement of
General Chaffee's assignment. and the
orders to proceed to Pekin, came after
the state department had declined to
