How the Demoeratic Nominations were Made, - The democratic caucus Saturday night nomi- nated John G. Carlisle, of Kentucky, to be speaker. of the House; John B. Clark, of Mis- souri, clerk of the House; John P. Leedom, of Ohio, sergeant-atarms; Samuel Donelson, of ‘Tennessee, doorkeeper; Lycurgus Dalton, of Indiana, postmaster, and Rev. W. H. Milburn, of Illinois, chaplain. All the nominations, ex- cept those of Mr. Donelson and Rev. Mr. Milburn were without opposition. John B. ‘Trainer, of New York, was out in opposition to Mr. Donelson for the doorkeepership, but he had only received ten votes when Donelson had enough to give him the nomination, so his name was withdrawn and Mr. Donelson was coy by acclamation. There was a tri- angular contest over the chaplaincy, the candi- dates being Rev. Dr, Lindsay, the chaplain. of the last House; Rev. Dr. Milburny and Rev, Dr. Lodge. When the names had been presented, Mr. O'Nell, of Missouri, explained the situation thus: “Dr. Lindsay fs an Episcopalian, Mr. Lodge is a Baptist and Dr, Milburn is a North- ern Methodist. ‘They are ‘all wrong, but the blind orator fs the most excusable, because he cannot see.” There was @ roll eall, and Dr. ‘Milburn was nominated on the first ballot, ‘Mr. Carlisie's name was presented to the cau- cus upon its meeting by Messrs. Willis, of Ken- tucky, and Randall, of Pennsylvania. Mr. Carlisie, in his acceptance, sald: “Now, for the first time in a quarter of a century, we find our selves in political accord with the Executive department of the government, and therefore charged with responsibilities which have here- tofore rested upon our opponents. Al I think it ls demonstrated to the satisfaction of all reasonable men that the interests of the country are safe in our hands, notwithstanding the gloomy predictions made before our acces- sion to power. In my judgment, a full and complete recognition of the democratic princl- ple in our government is essential, not only to the preservation of the rights of individuals and local communities, but also to the perpetu- ation of the unton of the states.” He expressed the hope that during the Forty-ninth Congress they might be able to reduce expenditures, lighten the burdens of the people, reform abuses in the public service, restore good feel- ing between all sections of the country, and gusrantee along line of democratic adminis- trations. ‘The Republican Cauens. The republican caucus nominated Mr. Reed, of Maine, for speaker and the following minor officers: For clerk, Col. W. 0. Crosbie, of Iowa; for sergeant-at-arms, Capt. Albert O. Marsh, of Indiana; for doorkeeper, Col. Joseph R. Selden, of Connecticut; for postmaster, A. W. Adams, ot Maryland; for chaplain, Rev. Dr. F. L. Britt, of Nebraska. Resolutions were adopted by the caucus “that immediate action be taken by the Forty-ninth Congress to provide for the Presi- dential succession," and “that the caucus favors the passage of a properly-guarded Mexican pen- sion bill, with provisions for pensions for union soldiers 'of the late war. their widows, and orphans, similar to the bill passed by the Sen- ate during the Forty-eighth Congress; and we declare In favor of the unconditional repeal of the limitation on the payment of arrears of pensions. PROF. +o0——____ HALL’S ADDRESS. Discusses the Subject of American Scientific Societies Before the Philo- sophical Societ: . The law lecture room of the Columbian un!- versity was well filled Saturday evening with members of the Philosophical society and their friends. The occasion was the delivery of the address of the retiring president, Prof. Asaph Hall. Dr. J. 8. Billings presided and introduced Prof, Hall. The subject of the address was American scientific societies. The speaker gave brief historical sketches of the “leading American societies, beginning with the Ameri- can Philosophical society, organized in Phila- delphia in 1769, and having Benjamin Frank- lin for its first president. He gave an account ‘of the American Academy of Arts and Sclences, organized in Boston 1780, the American Asso- elation for the Advancement of Selences, orga- nized in 1840, and the National Academy of Sciences, organized during the war and de- riving its membership of necessity at first from one section of the country. Prof. Hall de- Voted much of his time to discussing the rela- tions of the National Academy of Sciences to the government and the attitude of the govern- ment towards sclence and scientists. He spoke | of the good office a national body of sclentists | would perform in the way of criticism of the sclentifle work conducted by the government. He suggested that the government should pro- Vide for the sclentists a channel o1 communtea- tion through which what they had to say could be made public. Government functionaries now, he sald, looked upon the scientist in the B inment’ service as an expert who was bund to outwit or get the better of the official | placed above him if he could. He drew an when it was found $10,000 had been spent by somé scientist without _re-/| sult, ant the complacency with which | the public looked on while half a million dol- lars was spent in repairing a naval vessel | whlen never cost originally half that, sum, and | was less efficient alter being repaired than | before. He discussed in an interesting manner the propriety of the government's engaging in scientific work, There were some works, such as the survey of the coast and a general geolog- ical survey, which it was admitted the govern- ment should undertake. ‘These were works of utility. He thought it proper that the govern- ment should undertake also other works whose commercial value was not so apparent, such as establishing a national observatory. Prof. Hall spoke of the Philosophical society. of Washington as the first in importance of local societies in America, He spoke of the rare advantages Washington offered for scientific pursuits, and predicted a brilliant future both tor the city and for the society. —— The Grand Jury's Work. INDICTMENTS REPORTED SATURDAY—THE CLOSE OF THE TERM, ‘The grand Jury reported on Saturday indict- ments against. John Mahoney, for man- slaughter; Wm. C.

HIS VIEWS ON THE SILVER QUESTION, ETc, Mr. C. V. Jordan, treasurer of the United States, reports the government's revenue dur- ing the last fiscal year at $323,690,706, or $24,820,168 less than that of the preceding year, and the expenditure at $260,226,935, or $16,100,690 greater than that of the preceding year. The treasurer recommends the estab- lishment of an issuing department for better security in the treatment of legal tender notes and other securities; that he be empowered to make frequent examinations of mints and sub- treasuries; that the sub-treasuries be reor- ganized; that advances to disbursing officers be restricted to the amounts of their monthly pay- ments; that pensions be paid by means of treasurer's checks, us is the interest on the pub- le debt, ete, . SILVER Too EXPENSIVE A CURRENCY FoR DAILY USE. ‘The Treasurer recommends that the practice of issuing legal-tender gold and silver certifi- cates be discontinued as expensive and danger- ous through the accumulation of the immense sums now in the Treasury, the silver certificate especially, on the ground ‘that it has proved to be @ positive hindrance toa more extended cir- culation of the silver dollar. This latter he also considers too expensive a currency for dally tse. as, owing to the express charges paid by tue'government in putting these coins into clr- culation and the further charges paid by the people to return them to the monetary centers, where they alone can be used, the culns causé @ large loss to the community. It is apparent, he says, that the execution ot the age law is gradually converting the funds of the Treasury into standard dollars. Every exertion has been made to give an ex: tended cireulation to these coins, but without the success which the large expenditure in- curred would warrant. Such measure ot suc- cessas hasbeen obtained has been at a very great expenne to the government, the excessive cost furnishing a strong argument against co: tinuing the Issue. The circulation obtained is short-lived, the coins finding their way back immediately to the sub-treasuries, the return movement ‘costing individual holders more for transportation than the original issve cost the government. As the sub-treasuries become overloaded with returned and the mints with unissued dollars, the government Is obliged to transport them ata heavy cost to the nearest place in which vault room can be found. He recommends that the Treasury be permitted to seek some more economical mode than now employed in order to distribute them and other moneys from the Treasury. FRACTIONAL COINS, The Treasurer states that the amount of frac. tional coin held in the Treasury is $31,23¢ 899.49, and recommends the repeal ot the redemption law as to these and the minor coins as tending to prevent their ovor-issue. He fur- ther gives a statement of the abrasion upon the | coins now in use and an estimate us to what it would cost to replace them with other subsi- {| diary coin of equal or greater value. He re Secretary Lamar Discusses the India‘ Questi Other Subjects Whic! Come Under His Supervision. Secretary Lamar, in his annual report of the affairs under the direction of the Interior de- partment, gives a very interesting sketch of the method of governing the Indians, and states that while the results are not commensurate with the efforts expenditures made, yet there has been good order and considerable Progress among these people. After dwelling upon the claims of these first possessors of the soil for the protection and support of the gov- ernment, he recommends as a measure of wise Policy that a portion of every reservation be divided up into separate tracts of suitable size for farms to be allotted to each individual as his sole and separate estate. Until After atime limited provision should be made against mort- gaging or selling the land. He renews the recommendation of Secretary Kirkwood that the existing reservation be reduced to a size proportion to the namber of the Indians thereon upon just and fair terms, A PROPOSED COMMISSION ON INDIAN AFFAIRS, He further suggests that In order to secure for the department intelligent and accurate in- formation in regard to the Indians, that a com- mission, consisting of six men, three selected from army officers and three from civil life, appointed to visit each of the reservations and | j investigate and report upon the condition, pe- cullar cireumstances and needs of the Indians residing thereon, In order to counteract the evil Influences of the “squaw men,” the Seere- lary suggests that a law be passed providing that any Indian woman who shall marry a citizen of the United States shall be dee citizen, and also the Issue of such a marriage. He thinks that the policy of securing the co- operation, of the religious and philanthropic societies In working for the benefit of the In- dians should be continued.

Other trusts are without change from last year. Notice is given ‘of the suspension of one and | two-dollar notes and the economy effected thereby, the saving for one quarter being the cost of printing 15,000,000 notes and the paper used in their manufacture. At this rate a re- duction in the small note issue is indicated of about $28,000,000 during the current year. ‘The ‘Treasurer apologizes for the length of his | report, but he thinks the Treasury should be as a glass house through which the sun shines to its uttermost nook and eranny. “There is not,” | he says, “a business interest in the whole cot try which may not suffer through ignorance of its affairs, and therefore its operations have been detailed as thoroughly as the time and intelligence of its custodian would permit.” +o Secretary Tindall’s Recommendati HE SUGGESTS THAT THE COMPENSATION OF CLERKS IN THE COMMISSIONERS’ OFFICE RE INCREASED, Dr. Wm. Tindall, secretary to the District Commissioners, in his report to the District Commissioners encloses copies of the orders of | general nature made by the Board of Commis- stoners of the District of Columbia during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1885, for embodi- ment in the annual report to Congress, as re- quired by law. “I take pleasure,” he suys, “in commending the very acceptable discharge of duty displayed by the clerieal force of tis of- fice during that period, as heretofore. This fidelity and efficiency should, in my judgment, be recognized to the extent at least of making their compensation correspond to that paid in departments of the general government for services of equal responsibility and. value, and I recommend that the salaries be fixed at $1,800, $1,600 and $1,400, respectively. Re- curring to the subject of arranging the old re- cords of former municipal governments under my charge,discussed in my reports tor previous years, I have to suggest that authority be asked for the use of a portion of the contingent fund of this office in employing the clerks of this office after office hours on that work, so far as it can be done without prejudice to their ability to render due service during. their regular offi- clal hours of labor. If no code of laws should be adopted during the next session of Congress It will be advisable to get authority for a like use of the clerical force in preparing an index of extant laws affecting the District, which, al- though, not an ample snbstitute for a well di gested code, would be a great convenience.” ‘The New Pension Building. THE CONDITION OF THE BUILDING UPON WHICH THE WORK 18 STOPPED. Gen. M. C. Meigs, the supervising engineer and architect of the new Pension building, in his report to the Secretary of the Interior of the work done during the month of November, states that the roof of the baiiding is completed and the flooring and plastering of certain rooms in the third story and in the fourth Story has been finished.

REPRESENTATIVE RANDALL EXPRESSES HIS ‘VIEWS AGAINST A PROPOSED CHANGE OF THE HOUSE RULES, Representative Randall has expressed his | views concerning the proposed change of the rules of the House. He says that to distribute the appropriation bills among several commit- tees would lead toextravazance, by breaking down all the sate-gaurds which exist through a rigid examination of the department estimates asa whole. In case of a distribution, he says, noone would know what the aggregate of ap- propriations would be until it would too late W avoid the disaster of a deficient treasury. He says: “The appropriations for the Agricultural department from 1877 to 1880, inclusive, when they were under the control ot ihe egminitice on appropriations, aver: per an- num, From 1881 to the Agricultural ap- proprlation bills, being under control of the committee on agriculture, averaged $439,616 perannum. ‘The appropriations Yor rivers and from 1876 to 1880, when this subject was controlled by the committee on appropria- Tons, averaged $7,300,028 perannunl” From 1881 to 1885, Inclusive, during which itme the committees on commerce and rivers and bar- bors have had the subject in hand, the annual jons have averaged $13,571,243.” "Hie eays further that there would be’ just as much logical reason in distributing all the bills ‘as. any part of them. A. tact to be con- sidered, he says, is that the estimated expendi- tures for the ensui See year aggregate 589,000, while the estimated revenues {or the saiue period amount to only $515,000. 000, being an estimated excess of expenditures over revenues of $24,500,000. ea a ‘The New Central Chureh Dedicated. ‘THE SERVICES OF DEDICATION HELD YESTER- Dar. ‘The New Central Presbyterian church, corner of 3d and I streets northwest, which was de- scribed in Saturday's Star, was dedicated yes- being Dright, the discourses eloquent eloquent and ‘the attendance at the At ‘school Rev.
