NOT MUCH PROSPECT OF IMPORTANT LEGISLA- TION THIS SESSION. ‘The outlook for legislation of importance in the House this session is not bright. The dis- cussion of the silver question, which dragged on to-day, has in it no promise of action, and the speeches on either side have ceased to pro- Yoke any bitterness. ‘The question was talked out betore the “official and authorized’ debate began. There is a growing impression that there ‘will be no tariff legislation. The oppo- nents of the Morrison bill are resting confident in their strength, and many of the democrats who have been reckoned as protectionists are haltbreeds or indifferent. ‘This condition. of affairs 1s a matter of much uneasiness among leading democrats, who fear a loss of strength in the House. Tn addition to this trouble the Blair bill ts a sort of two-edged sword, which is found to cut, whether passed or defeated. Its passage, however, would probably make the deepest cut, es CoUNTERFEITERS ARRESTED.—The agents of the secret service division arrested Charles Coleman and William Clarke, while engaged in passing counterfeit coin last evening in Newark, N.

From the New York Heraid, to-day. A motion was made yesterday before Judge Lawrence, in supreme court chambers, to pun- ish Leonard Grover, the actor and theatrical manager, for contempt of court for neglecting to obey an order which required him to pay his wite, Ida May Grover, alimony and counsel fees. The arrears now amount to $310 In her suit for a limited divorce from him upon the ground of abandonment and failure to provide for her support, J. K, Fur- Jong und Otto Howitz appeared in support of ch was opposed by William. ‘over separated from hls wife in July last. She obtained an order requiring him to pay her alimony at the rate of 17.50 per week and acounsel fee of $100. For six months prior to the date of the order of the court, Mrs, Grover says, her husband refused to support her, and even the mandate of the court had no effect upon hit, for he has dis- obeyed it, so that now the alimony has ac- cumulated to upward of $210. ‘Some time ago Mrs, Grover met her husband on Broadway, near 24th street, and asked him. why he did not support her. He declared that he would never pay her a dollar; that he was too smart for either herself or her lawyers. Judge Lawrence granted an adjournment until to-day in order that Mr. Clark may see his ieni, and, if possible, make some definite ar- Tupgeinent about the controversy. News Briefs. The Paterson, N.

CHIEF JUSTICE CARTTER ORDERS THE DIS- CHARGE OF THE TWO SOLDIER PRISONERS, ESMOND AND M’GURK, BROUGHT HERE ON A ‘WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS. ‘The case of the two soldiers, Frank Esmond and James McGurk, was before Chief Justice Cartter, under writ of habeas corpus, this morn- ing. They enlisted in the 3d United States ar- tillery, quartered at, Washington barracks, and Major Burbank left his watch in an out build- ing, and it was found by one of the men and sold by the other. On trial in the Criminal Court here they were acquitted and were subse- quently tried by the military authorities and sentenced to the loss of pay, dishonorable dis- charge and to be imprisoned in the Albany Penitentiary, Their counsel, Messrs. J.. W. ‘alker aud W. Pierce Bell, sued out a writ of habeas corpus, and subsequently the govern- ment had the prisoners returned here. Assistant Attorney General E. ‘Watson appeared for Colonel Gibson, and argued. that in this case the petitioners had not been twice put in Jeopardy for the same offense. The chiet justice said he was disposed to unite in the position taken by the counsel for the complainants, that the civil and military authority were ed-ordinate, and when the {or- mer ied a party and judgment had been en- tered another trial was debarred. If there was additional punishment he did not doubt but a military court in its discretion could impose an additional sentence, not, however, imprisou- n Mr. Watson cited a number of authorities, several of which were construed by the chief Justice. 4 ‘THE DECISION. The chief Justice, after reviewing the circum- stances, said that in time of peace the civil law ‘Was supreme and should be maintained—exe- cated plainly and fairly, but maintained. With his veneration for ihe constitution and the unmistakable force and meaning ot the per- sonal life and liberty clause, he thought the men should be discharged.’ He would. not interfere with or embarrass the authority of the military, yet the men had been tried by the court for a penitentiary offense and acquit- ted, and they had been tuken up by the mili- tary and tried upon the identical charge, con- Vicied, sentenced and sent, to the penitentiary, allin the time of peace, when the civil author: ity was supreme. The respondent had their pathway open—an appeal to the General Term and thence on to the Supreme Court of the United States if they desired to go there. NOTICE OF AN APPEAL. Mr. Watson gave notice of an appeal and asked what would become of the men in the meantime, The chief justice said he had no alternative bui io discharge them, Mr, Watson asked that the men be held pend- ing the appeal, but had no objection to their being held by the civil authorities. “Twi turn Luem ivuse, a8 T have no right to hold them,” said the chief justice. Mr. Watson asked a suspension of the order riy-cight hours, The court gave him till 2 o'clock Monday next, and the counsel became responsible tor their appearance at that hour. ee Alleged Confidence Men.

Alllsom, the boat used for exchange of prisoners on the James cheng. the war; but he was especially notable as having been the sole survivor of what was known as the Creole massacre in 1841, which came ‘near — causing trouble between England and America. The Creole was bound trom Richmond to New Orleans with 135 negro slaves for the New Orleans market. When the vessel got out at sea the negroes mutined, and the next day @lf tord, who was the only survivor of the crew, tound himself lying on the quarter deck, slashed and shot and left for dead The muti- neers at first decided to kill him, but on consid: eration demanded that he should pilot the ship to Abacco, where, they said, they had been told by # preacher in Norfolk they would get their freedom, He fooled them by Steering for Nassau. On reaching that place he reported to the American consul. The latter calied ‘on Ad- miral Cockburn, of the British navy, and the admiral, despite Gifford’s protest, decided to free (he nesroes, who, as soon as they landed, claimed protection as British subjects, and at once declared subjects of Great Britain. Gitford was arrested and put under $2,000 bonds and the penalty of twelve months’ im- prisonment if he attempted to take one of the: irom the island, He therefore abandoned that idea, but protested against such proceedings and’ sent the protest to Washington. Joho ‘Tyler was President of the United States then, and the case was managed by President yler and Daniel Webster, They made a demand upon the British government to pay for the slaves, and after fourteen that government did ee them, prince and compound interest. rd Ashburton came here from England to treat for them, and known as the Ashburton treaty. ‘Five ofthe negroes, however, decided to remain on ‘ue ship and go to their masters in New Or- jeans, and with iis crew Gitfurd succeeded in reaching that port, Capt. Gilford’s son, Who Was an officer in the confederate army, was aken ill with yellow fever at the Bubama ant and was nursed by one of the negroes who was with the mutineers. slender oes A Niece of Postmaster Vilas Disappears Detroit Special to the New York World, March 18. On Weduesday Miss Gracie Whitcomb, ot Jackson, Michigan, niece ot Postmaster General Vilas, and daughter of wealthy parents, accom- panied friends to the depot in that city and un- accountably disappeared. The police at once made a thorough search, but without satistac- tory result. Miss Whitcomb did not leave on the cars, and to-day the river was dragged, but no trace of her was found. All Jackson has joined In the search, and the greatest interest is shown throughout southern Michigan, Miss Whitcomb being widely known and highly re- spected. She hud suffered greatly from spinal troubles, which at times produc great mental depression, The last attack, however, was about ten months ago. Recently she had been suffer- ing from severe pains in the head, and it is hinted that she was somewhat deranged from the effects of illness. Some of her friends think she has met with foul play. Salome Bramm and Her Father. THE LATTER VINDICATED AND THE GIRL LENT ‘TO CHOOSE HER OWN HOME. Salome Brumm was in court at Pottsville, Pa., Thursday, and her great brown eyes and rich, dark complexion marked her among the nundreds of women present to hear her father’s claim for her against her foster parents, as the principal in the case. The case (heretofore re- ferred to in THE Star) had excited the widest comments, and people were present from nearly every town in the county, George Brumm, ot Boise, Idaho, father and claimant of the gir}, is a brother of Congressman Charles N. Brarafi, He was the first witness called. His examina- tion ocenpied nearly the whole day. He said that he provides two houses for the Roads tam- ily, who raised Salome. One they lived in and the otherdrew the rent for. They sold his stock of watches and jewelry and never accounted for the proceeds, He sent them $3,500 for the support of Salome and her brother, He sent the children resents of money and jewelry. When he feard that the eg eyes were failing and she was io delicate health (rer, mother died of con- | sumption), he determined to come east, take her to the eye infirmary at Philadelphia, and then to Idaho, where he hoped the climate would be beneficial, He offered to take the Koads family out and place them on @ farm a few miles from Boise. His second wife was anxious to care for Salome, and he hoped to complete her education, which had not been finished. He concluded by saying he would not now take her against her will, because of the furore his request had created.’ He wanted his demand vindicated simply, Salome then went on the stand. She saidshe always understood her father had abandoned her and never contributed to her support. She never knew any parents but the Roads. “Their home was happy, and she wanted to stay. She would not go west unless forced to. The court decided to dismiss the writ of habeas corpus, leaving the girl free to goor stay. Terribie Explosion of Natural Gas. BUILDINGS BUMNED AND SEVERAL PERSONS FEARFULLY BURNED. At 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon a new gas well, known as the McWilliams well, be- longing to the Chartiers Valley Gas company, at Murraysville, Pa, was being turned into the company’s main line at that point, when the connection suddenly broke and the gas escaped im such volumes that it almost instantly filled the adjoining houses. The gas ignited in the house of Wm. Taylor, and a terrific explosion followed. The house’ was shattered and was soon wrapped in flames, The inmates of the building, seven in number, were quickly taken out, and carried into neighboring houses. T! fire'communicated to four other buildings, in- cluding the post office and a store, and all were totally destroyed. The fire ran back aiong the Pipe to the well, burniug the derrick and ever: thing surrounding it. Tho villagers were wild With fright, and il was feared at one time that the entire town would be consumed, The flames were, however, confined to the five buildings, Wictinis of the explosion are Wm. Tayior, bis wife and two children; Mrs. Parry Taylor and her three children and Sallie Lacock. One of the Taylor children and Miss Lacock are so fearfully burned that they can- not live more than « few hours, All the others are dangerously burned, except Wm. Taylor, who will recover. The loss on the building and to the gas company will amount to about $30,000. Declines to Arbitrate. VICE PRESIDENT HOXIE SAYS THE RESPONSI- BILITY RESTS WITH THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR— JAY GOULD'S REASONING, A dispatch from St Louis says that Vice President Hoxie telegraphed last night to Grand Master Workman Powderly declining to arbitrate. The present strike, Mr. Hoxie says in his telegram, ts without @ redressable srievance, It was entered upon without notice {© the company, and has resulted in the wanton destruction ot the company’s property by vio~ lence and incendlarisin, und in the almost total stoppage of its busitiess by threats, intimi- dation and “force. In conclusion, Mr. Hoxie Says: I desire emphatically tostate thatthe re- spousibility for future continuance of the ent unjustifiable strike will not rest with the management of this company, but inasmuch 4s Your organization bas comuuitted the error of Striking first and endeavoring to negotiate aflerward, it has power to and should end the present trouble by permitting such of our em- Ployes and others who desire to work to 40 80 without tear of the threats and intimidation, leaving this company free to resume iis opera tiona and adjust with itsemployes, as itis at all times ready aud willing to do, any griev- ‘ances they may have. Mr. Powderly’s reply to Mr. Hoxie says that the continuance of the strike must not be charged to the Knights of Labor. No itame- (late action will be taken ‘by the executive pour The dispatch sent by Mr. Jay Gould, from Charleston; 8.C., vocitizens of Dallas and Green- ville, quoted In the dispatches to yesterday’ fhe Missouri Pacitic employs 14,319 men. Of these 3,717 only are concerned in the present strike, so that in addition, these 3,700 ‘conspirators, who are by force aad in- tmidation stopping our trains, are thereby de- priving the remuining 10.900 of their eo- laborers of their daily earnings.

Her sister and companion in the “army of two,” Rebecca Bates, dled December 13, 1581, aged eighty-three years. Reuben Bates, father of the heroines, was Keeper of the old light-house formerly located in Scituate harbor, but which was dis continued after the establishment of the Minot's Ledge light-house. One day during the continu: ance of the war of 1812 the Bates sisters, Abigail and Rebecca, were leit in charge of the light house, their father, brothers and other male In- habitants being absent, as they were members of the militiacompany. The girls descried a British ship approaching the harbor, and divined that it was the object of those on board to burn the fishing boats lying in the harbor, and perhaps to sack the town. Rebecca said to Abigail that if ‘she could ““file,” she (Rebecca) would “drum,” and perhaps they might lead the Brit- ish to think there was a force of armed men near by and thus frighten them away. Abigail replied that she would. So the two girls went around behind some sand hills near the light- house and the music of the fife and drum were soon heard sounding the lively notes of “Yan- kee Doodle.” The ruse proved very successful for it is said that the British, becoming alarme‘ by the a) nt nearness of a hostile force, quickly pulled back to their ship in their small ats without attempting a landing. The men were considerably crestiallen upon their Tre. turn, at the smartness of the girls, and some of them have been ungallant enough to question the authenticity of the narrative. Praise for the Smithsonian. THE WORK OF THE BUREAU OF ETHNOLOGY COMMENDED BY AN ENGLISH JOURNAL, From the London Times. English ethnologists must envy the pro- vision made for the pursult of the study in the United States. Among the departments ot the Smithsonian Institution at Washington is a bureau of ethnology, which devotes itself par- ticularly to researches into the physiology and customs of the Indian subjects of the Union. ‘The third annual report of its director is before us, and it comprises a vast quantity of informa- tion. Tribal peculiarities of the American abo- riginese are dying out faster than themselves, Ifthe race be hot doomed to extinction it will gradually be absorbed in the mullions of its White “supplanters. Whether it perish or live its distinctive features. will equally be effaced. To the Smithsonian bureau of ethnology is due an assurance that whatever can be rescued from oblivion by the most. painstaking zeal of chroniclers and draughtsmen Is safe. The Smithsonian collec tons and reports will enable posterity to imag- ine with all possible accuracy and completeness the strange type of humanity once sovereien over a continent, and now fading irretrievably away. © * * No work could be more profits- ble and instructive than that which the Sinith- sonian bureau of ethnology is performing. The Smithsonian Institution ‘accomplishes its gen- eral object, “the increase and diffusion of knowledge ‘among men,” as economically as ably. On its bureau of ethnology it spent in the Year covered by the present report £5,000, and £5,000 could not have been laid out ‘to better effect, A special obligation, doubtless, has fallen upon the people of the United States to, store up recollections of the previous lords of the soil, of Whose extirpation they have been for the most part the innocent cause. If they do not undertake the charge, none else effectually can. But as cleara duty might be shown to lie upon Englishmen, and it is to be feared that they would be unable to make out that they are discharging it as adequately.

Mis Views on the Tarif, Silver, Civil Service, amd the Attitude of the Seuste, From the New York Herald, to-day. Speaker Carlisle was at the Gilsey house last night, and his roddy, clean-shaven face and keen, bright eyes rendered his contradiction of the sickness attributed to him quite supereragy atory, “I am feeling quite well,” he said, “better than I have for some time.” Being Qsked about the tariff, he sald: “I cannot say anything about the tariff pil, Nobody can say anything about it until the bill, ‘comes from the committee, because nobody can ‘speak with any certainty as to their intentions or the the bili will take.
