The Senate committee on agriculture and education today received a committee of the Association of Amercan Agricultural Colleges and Experimental Stations who presented a memorial of their needs, The committee consisted of Henry E. Alvord, president Maryland College; James H. Smith, Indian: Merrill E. Gates, New Jersey; James W. Pat- terson, Kentucky; Henry M. Goodell, Massa- chusetts, The memorial says that agricultural colleges established under the United States I of 1862 are now educating nearly 10,000 students, Large numbers of the ares uates of these colleges are found in all the states engaged in useful vocations. The memorial eays: These colleges have now reached point in their development where their future growth and useful- ness is conditioned uy) their securing increased facilities for doing a larger work, that is, upon increased endowment or annual income. The next five years are critical years. ie memorial asks that at least $15,000 a year be provided now for each state, to be increased until a limit of not less than $25,000 is reached. The memoriaiists say they are willing this pro- vision shouid be made either by the Morrill bill, which the committee has under consideration, or im any other manner it sees fit to pursue, After the memorial had been read the mem- bers of the comruttee questioned the signers for some time. No action was taken. PENSIONS FOR DISABLED VETERANS. Senator Ingalls, by request, introduced a bill today to pay soldiers who lost a hand or foot or an arm or a leg, in lieu of the pensions now paid them, the sum of #50 a month from June 17, 1878. MEMORIAL FROM THE NATIONAL GRANGE. Senator Paddock today presented a pamphlet from the legislative committee of the National Grange, containing their memorial in favor of legislation to prohibit the adultera- tion of food, gambling in farm preducts and the formation and continuation of trusts; also in favor of the remonetization of silver and a revision of tariff in the interest of agri- culture. The memorial is signed by J. K. Bingham, Delta, Ohio; L, Rhone, Center Hall, Pa.; John Trimble, Washington, D.C., commit- tee, THE CHAPLAIN’S SMALL AUDIENCE.

On the democratic side every seat was vacant, IN FAVOR OF DIRECT IMPORTATION. Ex-Representative Darwin R. James of Brooklyn, a member of the New York Chamber of Commerce of New York. is here today to see members of the ways and means committee to secure the incorporation in the tariff bill of a piragraph in favor of direct importati ‘evious to 1882 all goods coming from India and other countries east of the Cape of Good Hope were subjected to an additional duty of 10 per cent if they did not come direct. In that year the clause assessing this additional duty was stricken out, and it is urged that the effect has been to make London and Amater- dam instead of New York, Philadelphia and Boston the great distributing points for United States purchasers of such goods as tea, spices, dyestuffs, manilla and other eastern products. Eastern importers say that the re- establishment of a penalty for reshipment will not only materially benefit American im- porters but will also serve to rehabilitate the American merchant marine. BILLS PASSED BY THE SENATE. The following bills were passed in the Senate today: Senate bill to amend the interstate commerce act (as to modes of procedure); Sen- ate bill to pay $86,202 to the Mobile Marine Dock Company for the use and eccupation of its property from April to November, 1865.

JAMES BEAGLE, THE WATCHMAN, ARRESTED— JUDGE MILLER EOLDS HIM IN $600 ON A CHARGE OF ASSAULT AND BATTERY WIIH INTEXT To | EILL. Last night about 10 o'clock three pistol shots | fired in rapid succession startled the large audience in the Globe Theater. A donble song and dance was in progress on the stage at the time @nd the performers kept right on, except @ momentary delay, and probably prevented a Panic by doing so. The shots were fired by James Beagle, the theater watchman. and ‘Were, it is alleged, aimed at Horace Boop, one of the proprietors of the house. ‘The shooting occurred in one of the dressing Trooms on the lower floor and followed a discov- ery that the building had been fired in three Places. A similar attempt had been made on a Previous occasion. THE ATTEMPTS TO FIRE TBE HOUSE, 4 Some clothing belonging to Ciara Shaw was found burning last night by Charles Nopper, one of the proprietors, who extinguished the flames before much damage was done. A short time afterward Mr. Nopper found that the clothing was again on fire and a trunk belong- ing to one of the actors was also burning. Had the flames made any headway before dis- | covery the fire might have been attended by Joss of life. After extinguishing the flames Mr, Ni Pper saw Beagle standing near by and accused him of having fired the clothing, THE WATCHMAN BECAME INDIGNANT at the accusation and called Sergeant Shilling and told him what had taken place and of his having been suspected of setting fire to the clothing. While this discussion was going on the other proprietor of the house, Horace Roop, ppeared, und bis partner, Nopper, related Tec what had occurred and whom he sus- Roop started to enter the dressing room, but Beagle stepped in front of the door and Ser- | could enter the room. Leagle asked Roop if he accused him of having started the tire, Roop replied that he did not accuse anybody, but added that if he had made the discovery there qould have been trouble. THE SHOOTING. : Beagle, who appeared to have been drink- ing, drew a Colt’s revolver from his Pocket and fired three shots at Roop, only one of which took effect. It entered Roop’s arm, inflicting a | slight wound. Fortunately none of the bullets | struck any one else, Beagle then turned to Sergeant Shilling and said: “You had better prepare to meet your God,” but he did not attempt to fire any more shots, ‘The sergeant reasoned with Beagle and finally succeeded in disarming him and tuking him to the first police station. . He was charged with assault and battery with intent to kill Roop, and Mr. Nopper charged | him with arson, ‘The cases not being bailable | ones until taken to court, Beagle was locked | up. The bullet was extracted from Koop’s | arm at Reh’s drug store on D street, | THE DEFENDANT RELEASED BY JUDGE MILLER | on $600 BarL, This morning the prisoner was taken to the | Police Court,where an assistant district attor- | ney investigated the case, The result was that the | only charge preferred against Beagle was as- | sault and battery with intent to kill, Mr. Cahill appeared for the defendant, He waived an examination and suggested that the court fix bail at $500. He said that there was but the one charge against his client and in all | probability that would be the only charge rought, ‘The prosecuting attorney, he said, | eens he would ask for ¥1,000 bail. “What is the objection to givit 5 asked the court, BLD I “We may not be replied Mr, Cahill, give $500."

In the Criminal Court, Chief Justice Bing- ham, this morning a number of sentences were imposed, Chas, E.

Tavenner—was sentenced to eighteen months in the Albany penitentiary. ‘The colored girl, Nannie Graham, convicted on the 18th inst. of housebreaking in the resi- dence of Wilson J, Fuller. was brought up for sentence. Assistant District Attorney Lipscomb stated she had been tried for arson and ac- quited, then for housebreaking, for which she received a jail sentence, but that she had nut been sent to the penitentiary. The court said that the jail sentence had not. it appeared, had a good effect and he hoped that she would real- ize that “the way of the transgressor is hard.” He imposed a sentence of fifteen months in the penitentiary at Albany. Rhoderick M. Campbell.- a young man, was arraigned for the larceny of a bicycle valued at $100 from: Atwater & Co., April 5, and plead guilty. Mr. Sillers, his counsel, subsequently appeared and stated that the plea had been filed through mistake and that the prisoner had a good defense. The court directed a change of plea. Daniel Williams, the colored man convicted April 3 of housebreaking, came up prepared to receive his sentence. It was found, however, | that a motion for .a new trial had been filed by his counsel, Mr. G. K. French. This was, how- ever, withdrawn, and the leniency of the court asked. In consideration of his previous good character a sentence of but six months in jail was imposed. ee A Husband’s Suit for Divorce. Edward J. Fallon has, by Mr. J. H.

Miss Daisy Dean, an em- ploye of the Government Printing Office, oceu- pies the house and a young man had cafled to see her. He seemed to be under the influence of liquor and Miss would not admit him. He, however, insisted on seeing her until he was taken y by a policeman. Before the policeman ed another young man had thrown the in- toxicated caller down the steps three times and each time he “bobbed up serenely” wanted to fight it out. It was just after one of the “knock downs” that Sergeant Byrnes appeared and placed both men under arrest. They continued to fight over the sergeant’s shoulder for awhile, but both were finally taken to the sixth precinct | station and charged with affray. ‘The intox cated man, who only sult of his rough handling, gave the name of John Warren, and the other man, who hada dislocated finger, gave his name as George Howard, Each left $5 collateral for his ap- pearance in the Police Corrt this morning, but they did not show up.

A Bill Providing for a Permanent Sys- tem of Highways Outside City Limits. Mr. Hemphill, by request, introduced in the House today a revised and extended bill providing for a permanent system of highways im that part of the Dis- trict of Columbia not included within the cities of Washington and Georgetown. The main features of the measures heretofore troduced for the extension of streets are re- tained. The manner of securing judgment is | elaborated more in detail. pres- ent bill provides for a system lof highways, as above stated, as near in conformity as possible with the’ street plan of Washington, the new highways in no case to be less than 90 feet than 160 feet in width. Plans and maps are to be prepared and placed on file and recorded at the office of the surveyor. Within thirty days of such filing the Commissioners shall make application to the Supreme Court of the District praying for condemnation of such land as is needed. Public notice shall be given and the damagess shall be asscased by a jury. The court shall. then make awards «nd one-third of the amount awarded as damages for each highway, &c.,-shall be charged on the land benefited. One million dollars, one-half of which is to be charged to the District of Co- Iumbia, is appropriated for damages and 25.000 extra for carrying out the provisions of She act CONVEYANCES OF REAL ESTATE. Mr. Ingalls today in the Senate introduced a bill amending section 452 of the Revised Statutes of the United States relating to the District of Columbia — concern- ing conveyances of real estate by adding to the eud thereof the words. “but such Tight of dower shall effectually pass by such deed whether such married woman be of full age or otherwise.” ‘MR.

CONGRATULATING MR. COLEMAN. Representative Coleman has received many congratulations trom his colleagues upon the promptness with which his resolution appro- priating money for the reliet of the Mississippi overflow sufferers was put through. It was the most speedy legislation of this very rapid session, As soon asthe bill was passed ir. Coleman telegraphed the Secretary of War, who notified the officers in the flooded district, Mr. Coleman then, as soon as the bill was passed by the Senate and engrossed, took it to the President, getting to the White House as quickly as a cab could carry him, THE ANTI-TRUST BILL, Report of the House Committee on the Judiciary. The object of the anti-trust bill, the report of the House committee on the judiciary says, is two-fold: First, to protect trade and com- merce among the states or with foreign nations against unlawful restraints and monopoly. Second, to protect trade between the states and territories of the United States and the Dis- trict of Columbia, or between states and territories and foreign nations against unlaw- ful restraints, The provisions of the bill, the report says, are carefully confined to such sub- jects of legislation as are clearly within the segislative authority of Congress. No attempt is made to increase the legislative authority of the states or even occupy doubtful ground. No mof laws can be devised by Congress alone which could effectually protect the peo- ple of the United States against the evils and oppressions of trusts and mcnopolies. Congress has no authority to deal generally with the subject within the states, and the states have no authority to legislate in respect to com- merce between the states or with foreign nations, It follows, says the report, that the legislative authority of Congress and that of the states must be exerted to secure the suppression of re- straints upon trade and monopolies, Whatever legislation Congress may enact on this subject will prove of little value unless the states will supplement it bysuch legislation as may be within their legislative authority. In conclusion the report says that while the measure isnot pre- | precisely what any member of the committee would have proposed upon his own motion, there was a general acquiescence in the recom. | mendation of its passage as perhaps the only legislation possible in existing circumstances by this Congress. The Great Brooklyn Dry Dock. Mr. J. E. Simpson, the head of the famous dry-dock building firm of New York, is in the city for a few days on business connected with the opening and acceptance of the great dock recently constructed for the government at |the Brooklyn navy yard. This dock, | which is one of the largest in the country, was built with great trouble, the foundation veing on piles that were driven a great distance into | the soft mud of the river bed, A spring of water was struck at one stage of the work and acarly destroyed what had been dono. It is to be opened on the 9th of May, when a party will go over from this cit; An effort was made to have the recviving ship Minnesota placed in the dock the first day instead of the mon‘tor Puritan, as she stands higher out of water and is fitted with spars and rigging. This would enable more of a decoration by flags and bunt- ing than woul: be possible on the Puritan, which is an unfinished monitor with |a low free board, But this request was not granted and the Puritan | will go into the dock. Mr. Simpson is quite active in his business, though over seventy-nix years of age. and attends to many of the de- tails of the enormous business of his firm. He is the guest of Naval Constructor Hichborn while here. ee ees ees Sent to Her Sister’s, Grace Gladmon, the young woman who re- cently attempted suicide by taking a dose of carbolic acid, was before the Police Court to- day charged with vagrancy. Policemen Sutton and Barney gave evidence against the young | Woman and Policeman Barney suggested that she be sent to the House of the Good Shepherd, but the defendant objected to being sent to such an institution. She told Judge Miller that she had been living in the disreputable portion of the city since last July. She was sent to the home of her sister in South Washington. en Capt. Duble Pays His Fine.
