Mr. Belmont, from the committee on foreign af- fairs, reported a joint resolution authorizing the President to call an international conference to fix upon and recommend for yniversal adoption a common prime meridian. The House refused (yeas 2, oe 58) to order the joint resolution to a third reading. Mr. Hiscock, chairman of the committee on ap- Propriations, reported @ jolmt resolution, appro- Priating $60,000 to provide for.a defictency in the Pee pea ons for fees of witmesses in U.S, courts. ADJOURNMENT ON JULY 10TH, Mr. Kelley, chairman of the committee on ways and means, reported a concurrent resolution for the final adjournment of Congress at 12 o'clock» upon the 10th of July. Adopted. REDUCTION OF INTERNAL REVENUE TAXATION. The morning hour having been dispensed with, the House, at 11:45, went into committee of the whole (Mr. Camp, in the chair) on the bill to re- duce Internal revenue taxation, ‘The first section having been read, Mr. Robeson moved to amend by striking therefrom the clause Tepealing the tax on bank capital. ‘Mr. Holman moved to amend by striking there- from all that relieves banks of taxation. Mr. Kelley op) the amendments, holding that the taxation of the capital of state and pri- vate banks was invidious and unjust. Mr. Townshend criticised the action of the re- publicans for proposing a measure which, pass by the poor men lifted the burdens of taxation 0 the shoulders of those best able to bear them. It should be termed a Dill granting a bonus of ‘$16,000,000 to the bankers and tobacco manufactur- ers of the country. Mr. Robeson advocated’ his amendment, which svould leave the tax on the capital of pankers but take it off his business, Mr, Carlisle asserted that the adoption of Mr. Robeson’s amendment would discriminate in favor ef national banks and against state and private anks. ; Mr, Smith (Ills.) advocated an amendment which he offered to Mr. Robeson/s amendment repealing the tax on the capital of state and private banks, and leaving it upon the capital of national banks. Mr. Page advocated Mt Holman’s amendment. Mr. Mills maintained thikt it was not wise states- manship for Congress to begin giving away the treasure of the country wuile there existed a large public debt due and payable. Mr, Haskell defended the bill, as reducing taxa- tion is the only way in which 1t could be reduced, “until the tariff commission had submitted its re- port, \ Mr. Randall replied to some critisms made by Mr. Mills upon a speech delivered by him recently in New York. At2 o'clock Mr. Smith’s amendment, taxing the capital of national banks; and Mr. Robeson’s amendment, striking out the clause repealing the tax on bank capital, were rejected—the latter by a Vote of 50 to 95, The District in Congress. The delay in the Senate in appointing confer- ence managers on the District water supply bill is because of the absence of Senator Harris in Ten- nessee, attending the democratic convention in that state. Upon his return the Senate will ap- point its confreres and a conference will be had at sc once. Bills were reported th the House yesterday from. the committee on the District of Columbia and re- ferred to the committee of the whole authorizing the Washington and Atlantic and the Washington and Point Lookout railroad compantes to extend their lnes into the District of Columbia, Capitol Notes, The Senate was not In session to-day. THE EXPENSES OF THE LATE PRESIDENT'S ILLNESS. Judge Taylor, of Ohio, in charge of the bill agreed upon by the House-committee on the Judiclary to pay the expenses incurred by the 1ll- ness and death of President Garfield, is endeavor- ing to arrange among members on the republics sie of the House to support a motion to take up measure for consideration tinmediately after tue disposal of the Internal revenue Dill. THE ADJOURNMENT QUESTION. A number of leading republicans, among whom were Representatives Robeson, Hiscock, Robinson, (Massachusette), held a conference yesterday to consider the question of adjourn- ment.sine die. It wasdectded that the business of the House could be disposed of by the 10th of July, and that the House could be ready to adjourn on that day, if it is fixed upon, provided the Sen- ate gets through with its work. It was the sentic ment of the conference that there would be no necessity of Congress remaining in session beyond the 16th proximo at the latest. A resolution passed the House to-day for adjournment July The prevailing opinion in the Sena‘. seems to be that Congress will not be ready to adjourn before the latter part of July. Several meiabers of the nate committee on appropriations said yester- y that the 20th or 25th of July would probabiy be as soon as adjournment could be reached. Washington News and Gossip.

DECISION OF THE CABINET. APPLICATION FOR A RESPITE DENIED. a HOW THE PRISONER RECEIVED THE NEWS, ———— THE DEATH WARRANT PREPARED, i At the special Cabinet meeting last evening it was decided to deny the request for a respite in the case of Gulteau. This decision on the part of the President was unanimously concurred in by oMicers of his Cabinet. The grounds upon which the decision was reached were that at the time of the trial the insanity question was definitely set- tled, and that there was no reason now for the ap- polntment of an expert commission to decide upon at matter, and consequently no reason for [Seen 4 @ respite. The Attorney General Bad prepa nothing to be made public to-day, and Said that it would rest entirely with the President Whether anything further would be made public ‘than that the prayer for a respite had been denied. IT I8 UNDERSTOOD TO-DAY that the regular meeting of the Cabinet: yesterday it was unanimously agreed to refuse to grant a re- Spite in the case of Guiteau, and that the special meeting in the evening was called for the purpose of formally considering the papers which had been presented by Dr. Beard and others, the tenor of which was already known. Guiteau’s Counsel Gives up Hope. Mr. Charles H. Reed, Guiteau’s counsel, called at the department of justice this morning, but the Attorney General referred him to the district attorney, and declined to grant him a hearing. Mr. Reed said toa Star reporter that he felt sat- isfled before he retired last night that the Presi- dent's decision-was adverse. “Has the adverse decision been written out?” asked tl r. she reporter. “Not that I know of. I heard of it through the Attorney General, who sent me a message.” “Are you going to inform your client of this re- suit?” asked the reporter. “Rey. Mr. Hicks has just gone to the jatl to see Guiteau,” was the reply, “and he will tell him.” “What are you going to do now?” “I don’v know. I don’t know of anything that can be done,” was the hopeless reply. How Guiteau Heard the News. HE RECEIVED IT CHERRFULLY AND SAID HE HAD NO FEELING IN THE MATTER—HE FEELS CONFIDENT OF BEING JUSTIFIED IN THE OTHER WORLD. Last night Guiteau slept like a top, and when he arose this morning he was as cheerful as could be, humming and whistling snatches of hymn tunes, though now and then indulging in music of a more worldly nature. After breakfast Guiteau turned his attention to the Bible and reada number of Passages of Scripture to Mr. George Winters, the guard at his door. To Mr. Winters he said he was prepared to go, and would just as leave be hung to-day as to walt till Friday. At this time the news of the adverse decision on the petition for a respite had not reached the jail, but he did got seem to be in any way interested in the result, THE ADVERSE DECISION ANNOUNCED 10 THE PRIG- R The minister, Rev. Dr. W. W. Hicks, called about 11:30 o'clock and remained for an hour. He in- formed Guiteau of the result at once of the efforts in his behalf. This announcement did not seem to have a depressing effect upon him, and he talked as cheerfully as ever. He expressed some feeling because the President had referred the subject of a c res A had not ap- peated to the Cabinet, but to the President, and as is act had made him such it was the least the President could do to respite him for a short time till the case could be heard in the Supreme Court of the United States. He then repeated that he was God’s man and was in God’s hands, and asked Dr. Hicks to be at his side when he was hanged, saying that he would DIE FOR HIS INSPIRATION, feeling that God would justify him in the other world, He had now no personal interest in the matter, buthe felt for the nation which would suffer in the event of his being hanged, and he now fully expected to be hanged. Dr. Hicks and the prisoner engaged in religous conversation for some time and ere parting, arrangements were made by which Dr. Hicks would spend some hours with him daily,ineluding to-morrow (Sunday). The Death Warrant. The death warrant in the case has been pre- pared by Mr. W. E. Williams, deputy clerk of the court. It is as follows: In the Supreme Court of the District of Colum- Dia, May 224, 1882: United States agt. Charles J. Guiteau—No. 14,056—mur‘er, The President of the United States.

The windows on the east side of the south wing of the jail, in which Guiteau’s cell is located, have been curtained to shut out the light. This morn- ing the rope which 1s to be used in the execution was rigged up for the occasion. Itis a fine plece of manila, originally seven-eighths size, which has been stretched until itis now of but three- fourths size, and is forty-six feet long. It isas soft and pliable as it can made, After having been laid out, the ends were firmly bound with twine and the knot was tled. ‘This is ope tne pest aa hangman’s knot ever pre] in the ic a8 COI as Die.

The — STAR ROUTE AMENITIES, Deportment of Counsel in the Case— Non-Intercourse Declared—The Truc Account of Thursday’s Scene. As much is being said, particularly in certain ‘aterested quarters, in regard to the mode of pro- ceeding in the courts of the District, and the de- portment of counsel engaged, it is only fair to give an accurate account of what transpired in Judge Wylie’s court on Thursday in the star route case. Some friction, it appears, had been caused by the oft-repeated Inquiries addressed to Mr. Bliss by some of the counsel for the defendants, from day to day, as to whether or not he had introduced in evidence ait the papers relating to the different routes laid before the jury. Mr. Merrick, when these ye Were first made, stated that the counsel for the government would introduce all Papers, touching every route, in any way affecting any question presented by the indictment, whether such papers were favorable to the one side or the other. This assurance was several times repeated: but as counsel for the government continued to be interrupted, while putting In the evidence on be- halt of the prosecution, by being asked for one paper or another, they seemed to regard it as an imputation epoe. their good faith, and as calcu- lated to create upon the minds of the jurors and the public the impression that the evidence intro- duced was weakened or destroyed by other evi- dence in lon of the government, but pur- ‘ly withheld, In this view of the matter, Mr. lerrick stated on Thursday morning that the counsel for the government were not treated with the fairness and respect to which they were entl- Ued, and, for that reason, would thereafter answer ho questions in regard to papers, and that if coun- sel for defendants desired the introduction of any Papers other than those offered by the govern- ment, they could obtain them by subpcena in the Tegular way. {ter the recess, Mr. Ingersoll stated that non- intercourse had been declared by counsel, and that he did not wish the counsel for the government to say anything to him, to which Mr. Merrick replied that the gentieman was not likely to be troubled in that way. It seems thet none of the counsel for the government have Mr. Ingersoll since the application by that gentleman of an in- thet to Mr. Bliss in open court, in reply to Mr. Bilss’ strictures upon the no! ce Of John W. Dorsey at the time guaran! by Mr. Ingersoll, abeut two months since. The state- ment, however, that the counsel for the govern- ment and the counsel for the defendants are per- sonally hostile has no foundation in fact. Judge Wylie has used the judicial power very effectively to preserve the dignity of the court, and to arrest in the earliest stages of its develop- a any tendency toward irregularity or buf- loonry. Se OUT-DOOR SPORTS, ‘The District Boat Clubs. WEEKLY REGATTA OF THE COLUMBIAS. At six o'clock this evening the Columbia Boat club will hold their weeily regatta on the Poto- mac. The course will be one mile—from the Col- umbia boat-house to the Aqueduct and return. The races will be for double working boats and for our-oared shells. In the former racé the entries are Kintner and Stinemetz, Williams and Smith, Brace and Olds, Murphy and Garland, and, Holle- rith and Davis, The men in the different boats are pretty well matched, and_ there 13 consiaerable doubt as to which of the five willcome ‘in ahead. The four-oared shell race Will be between a light and heavy weight crew. It has not been definitely decided who will row in Uhis race, but probably the light boat will be manned by Smith, Zeigler, Wiliams and Olds and the heavy boat by’ Henderson, Thompson, Nesmith and Woodward. ‘There 1s a’ probability that a Tace will be made up for single shells also. After the races a hop will be held in the boat house. ‘Phe cosy hous? of the Columbia boys is always crowded on these occasions with pretty girls from Washington and Georgetown, and they always enjoy both the races and the dances. THE POTOMACS have held but one hop this season, but that was a great success, and was greatly enjoyed by all who were in attendance. Their next hop will be held at the dost house on the evening of the 30th in- stant, and after that they will occur every Taurs- day evening during the season. OTHER LOCAL BOATING NOTES. Last evening the Columbias had out their two fours. They have eight men in good condition, from whom they can select a four at the shortest notice. The Potomacs had out their eight-oared shell last evening. The juntor four, which is to row the Rappahannocks, at Fredericksburg, on the 4th of July, are practicing every evening. They are in better condition than they were a week ago, and have improved somewhat in their style. ‘The Waist men are hea and the stroke and bow are light men.

PS Parker Page, who recently won a single scull race on the Harlem, has returned to Washington from New Yorx. qnd last evening occupied the bow seat of the Analostan four. He pulls a fine sweep, and his presence here completes the Ana~ lostan’ four. They had out as good a crew last evening as they could probably get together- White, stroke; Eddy, 3; Marshall, 2 and Page, bow. ‘In fact, it was Such a good Crew thatit gave rise to considerable speculation as to Whether the Analostans would not be represented im the open race at Fredericksburg after all. ‘The single scull race at the regatta at Fred- ericksburg Wil be very interestiug. McKinney and Morgan will represent the Potomacs, Brace and perhaps Page the Analostans.
