THE MATTER PROBABLY SATISFACTORILY SETTLED. Herr von Elsendecker, the German minister, called upon the Secretary of State at noon to-day at the State department and carried out his instrue- tons from the German government by submitting to Secretary Frelinghuysen the returned Lasker resolutions and the accompanying leter from Prince Bismarck. It ts probable that the President will send a communteation to the House of Repre- Senfatives on the subject this afternoon. The German minister was met y-a Stan re. Pomer after his visit to te Seeretary of State, and In answer to Inquirles stated that the whole matter was now settied so far as he was concerned, and in @munner that he thought would prove generally Satisfactory. Further than that hecould say nothe ing. Nothlig regarding the correspondence will be imide public by the State department until after the necessary communication 13 transmitted to Congress. IF THE RESOLUTION REACHES THR NOCSE Yefore adjournment this afternoon, an effort will be made to have tt read, in which ¢ase a lively dls- cussion may be provoked. Itmay, however, be re ferred to the committee on foreign affalrs without the reading, and ff this Is done it may never see the | light of diy again, though. the committee are anxious to Inquire into the matter.

Curtin called on the Secretary of State this Morning to make some tnquiries into the matter, and on hls return he sald to a Stan reporter that he thought {f 1t went into the committee without being read in the House the matter would be all over. He said he thought tt would be found that the German minister at Washington had fixed Une matter up 80 Uk there would be nothing for the coumittee to Society Notes. ‘The Literary Society met at the residence of Mr. Charles Nordhoff, on K street, on Saturday evening, and, notwithstanding the disagreeable weather, the ‘altendance was quite large, both of members and invited guests. features of the evening were an essay by Miss’ Kate Foote, and Unree short poems by Mrs. Noble, which were very. bly read by Dr. Gallaudet.” After the formal ‘3 Were closed an excellent collation was en Joyed, and the remainder of the evening was pleas- antly'spent in the enjoyment of music, conversa on, ete. ‘The art exlubit of the meeting was con ted by Mr. E.
