The Senate ‘Toway. Mr. Pendleton, from the committee on foreign relations, reported: in“the Senate to-day a bill to provide for the exercise of the jurisdiction con- ferred upon the United States in places out of their territory and dominion. He explained that its Intention was to correct, Imperfections In ex- isting laws relating to civil and criminal adminis- tration in the consular courts in the Levant and eastern countries.

Mr. Hiscock, chairman of the committee on ap- Ppropriations, reported in the House to-day a joint resolution continuing, and making available, for @ period of fifteen days after the 30th of June, 1882, all appropriations for the necessary operations of the government,on the basis of the appropriations for the current year. Passed. The Speaker announced the appointment of Mr. Crapo, Mr. ley and Mr. Buckner as conferees on the “bank charter extension” bill. Mr. Wait, from the committee on elections, re- ported a resolution in the contested election case of Smalis vs. Tillman, from the 5th district of South Carolina, declaring the contestant entitled to the seat. This, together, with the minority res- olution, takit ‘cont ‘view, was laid over for uture actioh, © OY THE WATER SUPPLY BILL. Mr. Neal submitted the conference report on the Dill to increase the water s upply of the District of Columbia, but as there was a disposition shown to debate the matter, and as the House was anxious to procced to the consideration of the naval ap- propriation bil, Mr. Neal withdrew the report. MR. ROBINSON AND THE SPEAKER. Mr. Robinson (N.¥.), arlsing to a question of privilege, sent to the Clerk’s desk and had read the report of the controversy yesterday between himself and the Speaker, a3 published in the Record, ind said that he thought that the Speaker would See that he had treated him (itobinson) somewhat unjustly. He then referred to his state- ment that he would bring in a resolution to im- peach Minister Lowell, saying that he had made up bis mind that it would only block legislation, and that therefore he would walt to see the effect offthe resolution adopted yesterday and which was pretty vigorous for the House. ‘The Speaker disclaimed any intention of being unjust to the genticman, stating that he had feit it his duty to call the gentleman to order when ho Was addressing the House out of order. THE NAVAL APPROPRIATION PILL. ‘The House then, at 11:50, went into committee of the whole (Mr. Page in the chair) and resumed consideration of the naval appropriation bilL = * Mr. Harris took the floor and concluded his speecif, and was followed by Mr. Hewitt. | Mr. Hiscock denied the assertion that the pend- ing Dill had been delayed for an improper purpose. ‘The District in Congress. The Senate District committee at thelr regular meeting to-day transacted no business beyond referring some House bills to appropriate sub- committees, THE RIVER FLATS BILL. ‘The Senate commerce cominittee are still work- ing daily at the river and harbor bill, and it will require four or five days nore to complete it. The general impression 18 that the appropriation for che reclamation of the Potomac flats will be Mcorporated in the river and harbor bill by the enate. THE WATER SUPPLY BILL, But for the objection of Mr. Biount, of Georgia, and his further demand for a quorum, the bill to increase the District water supply,agreed upon by the Senate and House conference committees, would have passed the House to-day. Under the forms of legislation, the bill having been amended in the House must first be agreed fo by that body before the Senate acts. Mr. Neal withdrew the Dill to-day because there was not 2 qnorum in the House, the democrats having reirained from voting. He will again call it up to-morrow and he has no doubt it will pass as agreed upon In confer- ence, Washington News and Gossip.

CLOSING HOURS OF GUITEAU'S LIFE. A Visit from His Brother—He Still Has Hope, But Does Net Want a He- prieve “Sprung” on Him at the Last Moment—A Mock Execution to Yesterday afternoon John W. Guiteau, the brother of the prisoner, visited him, going into the cell with Rev. Dr. Hicks—Deputy Warden Russ and Mr. T. T. Johnson, the death watch for the day being present. The interview was rather of a cold, business-like character. Guiteau ex- tended his hand to John very formally, and said: “How are you, John?” The prisoner told his brother that he was ready to.go, feeling that the act was God’s act, and that he was God's man in it, He then spoxe of his hope, and turning the leaves of his Bible to Reve- lations, spoke of the beauties he expected to see in the other world. This, it is thought, was the last visit that John expected to make to his brother. TESTING THE SCAFFOLD. About 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon the scaffold was temporarily rigged with a rope, and a bag of Sand, weighing about 160 pounds being placed in the noose on the trap, the trigger was pulled, the volts cileked, and with ae dul ‘thud the’ bag dropped. HOW PASSES ARE ISSUED. ‘The question of passes to persons to witness the execution has been an exceedingly dificult one to Settle, and their issuance seems to have been attended with difficulty at every step, owing to the stringent provisions of the law limiting the number of spectators. There have been hundreds of applications, pnd a3 much as $30) has been offered for a single pass. A MISSING DOCUMENT. After due consideration Warden Crocker con- cluded to take care of the local press, and on con- sultation with Marshal Henry It was determined that as the law would allow peace officers to be selected, that the marshal should procure a list of such correspondents as would best subserve the interests of the public. This was prepared by a committee of the press, and was placei in Gen. Crocker’s hands to guide him in filing up the passes. While engaged yesterday afternoon in filling in the names, and before more than three had been filled in and signed, the list alsappearea, and stopped further work in that direction. At the timae of the disappearance of the lst there were some six or eight newspaper men in the office. Warden Crocker had finally to procure a duplicate from the gentiemen who prepared the criginal list, and the passes wil) ail be delivered to-day. GUITEAU RESTLESS. Yesterday afternoon Guiteau was lying on his bed for some time, and was evidently striving to get to sleep, but failed. He appeared to be very restless. He took his supper about six o'clock, eating tried potatoes, beefsteak, toast and coffee, He seemed to be in good humor, and talked with business-like calmness, telling “Bo,” (the steward,) ‘that he would have some money in the morning and pay him a small sum due him. THE DEATH WATCH. Mr. George Winters relieved Mr. Johnson, as the night watch, at 5:30 o'clock. Later in the evening Guiteau went to sleep, and dozed till 9:45 o'clock, when Rey. Dr. Hicks called, the prisoner being awakened to recelve him. DR HICKS’ NOCTURNAT, VISIT. Dr. Hicks remained about five or ten minutes. Guiteau eskea Dr. Hicks if he had been to see the Attorney General. Dr, Hicks replied that he had, and that It was of no use. Guiteau then told him that he desired the question. of reprieve settled. He wanted a definite answer from the President, for the Attorney General had nothing to do with the subject. “I want the question settled now,” said he, “and don’t wish a reprieve on Friday morning. Ican get ready in five minutes, but if it does not come before Friday I don’t wish it sprung on me.” Would be of no avail to see the President again, but notwithstanding that he would see him. GUITEAU AFPARENTLY HOPEFUL OP A REPRIEVE. Prior to this interview Guiteau was in very good humor, as he was expecting Dr. Hicks with some good news for him. To Mr. Winters (the death Watch for the night) he talked cheerfully. Soon after Dr. Hicks lett he remarked to One of the of- ficers passing through, **T don’t believe that I will be hung on Friday.” Evidently he has some hope lett. He is looking remarkably well, and will weigh now 145 pounds. 4 GOOD NIGHT'S REST. At 10:20 o'clock Guiteau was asleep again, and slept soundly, turning two or three times in his bed during the night. He did not awake until 6:30 o’clocic this morning, when he said to Mr. Winters that he had slept well and was feeling well. A TELEGRAM FROM SALT LAKE CITY. ‘Ati0 o'clock this morning a telegram was re- ceived at the jail for C. J. Guiteau, dated “Salt Lake, June 29th,” saying: “My father and I are one, Will take care of you. J. K. Trumzo.” : A HEARTY BREAKFAST. Guiteau was up only a short time this morning before he laid down again and took a short nap before breakfast. The meal was brought into him by John Herndon, one of the cooks, and consisted of his favorite dishes—an ommelette of four eg; nearly a pound of beefsteak (broiled), a dish o1 fried potatoes, four slices of toast and oue quart of coffeé, and he cleared the table. After this he laid about tn his cell until after the hails were swept, when he took his usual walk and asked for a bath and a shave. Mr. Woodward is the death watch for the day. DRAPED WINDOWS—THE ROPY. This morning windows on the east side of the north wing of the jail were draped in black muslin, ‘The rope having been tested yesterday,wascare- fully stowed away and will not be rizged again Ull to-morrow morning. The fact that the warden procured a fifty-foot piece of rope from an Avenue Merchant about two weeks ago has led many to ‘believe that the lne purchased was to be used for the execution, andl consequently pleces of it have been tht as mementoes, but the relic hunters have made a mistake, as that rope wlil be used on the elevator, and a piece of that used in the execu- tion of Bedford and Queenan will be placed around Guiteau’s neck. PRESSURE ON THR PRESIDENT, BY WOMEN MOSTLY, ¥OR GUITEAU'S REPRIEVE OR PARDON. Anumber of people, callat the White House daily for the purpose of seeing the President to make an appeal for the pardon or respite of Gui- teau. These are mostly women. They can be picked out at once by thélr general appearance, and are not allowed to see the President. ‘They are informed in the ante-room that their efforts are useless and that the whole matter has been finally settled by the President, but it is with dim- culty that they can be dissuaded from their pur- pose. This morning a woman when finally con- vineed oe her Lote was a ae tears and gave ven’ proaches ant ve No petitions have been received excepting those already mentioned in THE Srar, but many letters are recelved from unknown persons asiing for the pardon of the condemned man. ‘The writers are generally considered ta.be “cranks.” JOHN W. GUITEAU AND MR, SCOVILLE, John W. Guiteau told a SraR reporter this morning that he had not seen Mr, Scoville since his arrival in this city. What he said in regard to having him arrested was intended as a joke, althouzh, if he committed any violence oF at- tempted to out his threats, he would con- sider it his duty to arrest him, . DR. HICKS CALLED AT THE WHITE HOUSE this morning, but did not see the President. He talked with Mr. Phillips, however. He ts still firm peter aah Mi nepedler ‘seaf- fold a 80 - Dr. Hicks assured Guiteau that it | then réad from the 14th chapter of Revelations, commenting thereon, and added: “So you see the Dottomless pit is the abode of the damned forever and ever, and those who have anything to do with my hanging will mect their rewant. But, Jonn, I am not hung yet, and I have a presentment that I won't be hung and will have twenty or thirty rears Yet to live.” He then commented on the uties of Paradise Uill the close of the inter- SCOVILLE NOT ARRIVED. A telegram was received by John W. Guiteau trom Mr. Scoville last night, stating that he would be here thts morning and stop at the National, Mr. Scoviile’s name had not appeared on the reg- ister at the National ap to a late hour, GUITEAU’S WASH BILL. ‘This morning the washerwoman who has done Guiteeu’s wash returned his shirts, drawers and other clothing, according to his direction on Mon- day, and sent in word to him that the Dill was 60 cents. Guiteau sent to her 50 cents, with the ee that he would pay the balance on Mon- ay. 2 NEVER FELT BETTER IN TS LIFE. After his walk, Guiteau laid down on his cot and Passed the time in fanning himself and reading, holding but little conversation with his guard, Mi. Woodward. He told Mr. Woodward this morn: ing that he never felt better in his life. His kid- neys are in good order. GUITEAU’S COFFIN. In the absence of any arrangements made by the family for the disposition of the body of Gul- teau, Warden Crocker has ordered a cofiln to be prepared by Mr. Jonn R. Wright, the undertaker on 10th street, near O. The coftin was compleved about 7 o'clock Jast evening, and ft was placed in tie shop to await further orders from the jail. It ‘s as plain and cheap an affair as could be put to- gether, and it ts no better than is prepared for criminals buried at the expense of the govern- ment. It is made of white wood stained in cheap imitation of rosewood. A square of white painted strips of wood along the side relieve the plainness a little, while the three handles on each side,made Of some white metal, rather adds to the chespness of the appearance of the coffin. There is a row of white studs along the edge of the cover, but no Plate.
