POPE LEO XIII CELE-
6RATES 25TH CORONATION


ROME, March 3.-From sunrise to-
day all Rome was on the alert show
ing the most unusual animation and
interest in the celebration of the
twenty-fifth anniversary of the coro-
nation of Pope Leo XIII. Vast
crowds gathered around ST. Peters,
and when the doors opened. there was
an indescribable struggle in which
those present forgot all rules of holi-
ness in their effort to reach the in
terror of the sacred edifice. A num-
ber of women had their gowns ruined
and some had TO be carried away in
a fainting condition. After hours of
fatiguing waiting the majestic process
sion began to appear. A few minutes
after eleven the Pope was brought in
on new sedia gestatoria, cerried by
IL men. He appeared more than hui
man, and seemed more like white
spirit as he moved his hands slowly
in the benediction. Profound silence
fell over the multitude as the Pope
performed mass, and after the bene-
diction retired. 1t is estimated that
$4,000 people were present including
about 1000 Americans.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 81
At IL O'Clock today, the senate en-
tered upon the last legislative day Of
the fifty-seventh congress. There will
be no adjournment until IL ocolck
tomorrow, when the congress expires
by limitation. A resolution was adopt
ed continued until the next regular
session the standing and select COM
mfttees. The conference reports on
the sundry civil bill was agree.s to-.
Mr.. Hoar called up the conference re-
port on the bill to protect the presi-
dent. Mr.. Bacon, of Georgia, declar-
ed the alleged conference report is a
bill which, with the exception of one
single sentence, had never been read
In the senate. The bill, he said, is
far reaching in its character and abb
solutely subversive of the fundamen-
tai principles upon which the govern
ment is founded. replying Mr. Hoar
insisted that conference report was
the senate bill in it's entirety, with the
exception of the matter pertaining to
anarchists.
The program in the senate for the
closing legislative day is to take re-
cess at o'clock until 8 o'clock to-
morrow. Before 5 o'clock probably all
the conference reports, except the
naval bill. will be agreed to. The un-
derstanding is that the Aldrich bill
will not be pressed. This will prac-
tically clear the decks and the SEN
ators can avoid the usual all night
session proceeding the end of a con-
gress.
WASHINGTON. d. c., March s.
When the house reconvened at II
o'clock this morning. tie prospect was
that ii might feu..in in continuous
session until tomorrow noon. Despite
the fact, the scssi5 n last night VAS
prolonged until midnight, there was
a fairly large attends, &C on the fJJr
and the galleries were well filed. As
soon as Speaker Henderson called
the house to order, Mr.. Richardson,
the minority leader. attempted to
make the point of no quorum, but the
speaker recognized Mr.. Payne to de-
mand the ayes and nays on the pend
ing question coming over from last
night-the adoption of the conference
report on the immigration bill. Mr..
Richardson insisted that his point
was good, but the speaker overruled
him, and when the democratic leader
appealed from the decision he de-
clined to entertain the appeal on the
ground that it was dilatory. The re-
port was adopted 1877 to H. The pre-
sentation of the conference report on
a private pension bill was made the
occasion for some good natured poll
teal chatting Mr.. Mieres, of Indi-
ana. said if the republican party was
the G. od friend of the old soldiers it
professed to be, the house managers
would bring in rule to adopt con-
ference reports on the remaining pen
sion bills, "En bloc"
