Bostoy, April 28.—The Union Pacific’s annual report, issued today, contains a copy of the contract of the alliance with the Chicago and Northwestern railroad, the report of Govern- ing Director Spalding, the Senate bill for the settlement of the Pacific railroads’ debts and the Senate committee's report. The whole Union Pacific system shows a comparative loss in surplus of $407,000, the total surplus for the year being #1,145,000, against $1,552,000 in the previous year, due, as President Adams says, to the decreased earnings of the Oregon Navi- gation Preaee | Lee reason of deficient crops asl im Oregon aud Washington, A College President Against the Ben- nett Law. Muwavxez, Wis., April 28.—President Mer- rill of Riponcollege, whois recognized as one of the leading educators of the state anda promi- nent Congregationalist,created a decided politi- cal sensation last night by declaring himself as unalterably opposed to the Bennett school law in the course of his address before the Con- regational Union, held at the Church of the Pilgrims on Grand avenue. He denounced the un-American,andjin the course of his re- said: “Those who say that the secular and sovereign state shall determine the method for the educational formation of a human soul in the most critical period of its existence are about twenty-five centuries be- hind the wisdom of the time, ‘That would have done for Sparta, but it is such poor wis- dom for a Christian country.” Sullivan Will Fight. . Sax Fraxcisco, April 28.—President Fulda of the California Athletic Club last night received a dispatch from M. ©.

Pirrspura, April 28—The Times’ Washing- ton special today says that Senator Quay will not resign the chairmanship of the national republican committee at present, but at the coming uct successor to State Senator Fassett of New York, as secretary of the com- mittee, will probably be chosen. It will probably be John S. Clarkson; and when Sena- tor Quay sees his way clear to retire, as he is anxious to do, on account of ill health, Mr. Ciarkson will very likely be made chairman.

The BUCKET SHUP TROUBLES. METHODIST EDUCATION. Representatives Here of Collapsed | “University Sunday” in the Churches— Firms Ask for Time. ‘There is woe in that part of Washington's Population that is in the habit of putting up small margins in the hope of getting rich very suddenly. The failure of large establishments in New York and Pitts- burg, known as bucket shops, last week has had a direct astringent effect upon the money market here, and this morning the an- nouncement was made by the most of the local bucket shop keepers to their customers that they had no money and could not meet their obligations at once, but asked for time. It is safe to say that at least one-half the “bucket shops” of the city are running under shortened sail, while hundreds of people groaned and moaned over the possible loss of Liberal Subscriptions to the Fund. “University Sanday,” as yesterday was called in the calendar of the Methodist churches in this city, was observed with a great deal of enthusiasm. The project of establishing a university here assumed definite shape a few months ago, when a tract of land was purchased on the northwestern heights. Thirty-five thousand dollars of the purchase money have alroady been subscribed in this city, and at the suggestion of Bishop Hurst yes- terday was dedicated in the various churches to the presentation of this ease. In a printed circular which was found in the pews of the churches yesterday Bishop Hurst says: “We have raised $35,000 on the purchase of the ground. We have yet to raise 865.000. Our It could not be adopted by the representatives of these countries in the conference, but was referred by them to their home governments amendment provides that to defray expenses of purchase, &c., the adjoining property es- pecially benefited shall be assessed the amount their property is benefited. To carry out this provision a commission of five, to be pointed by the President, is provided for. e amendment then proceeds to go into mi- nute details as to condemnation, &c. Any money needed in excess of the amount col- lected from the adjoining property owners is to be paid one-half by United States and one-half by the District, The amendment was agreed to without a division. AS TO ASSESSMENT OF BENEFITS. In the discussion Mr. Payson said it depended upon the commission whether in their judg- ment the adjoining property was benefited to the full extent of the $1,200,000 needed. In his opinion it would. Mr. Adams agreed on this and thought the entire sum would b3 collected from the adja- cent property holders. A WARNING FROM MR CLEMENTS, Mr. Clements drew attention to the condi- tion of the District fiuances and the eminent probability of a deficit by reason of the increase | in the District appropriation bill made by | the Senate. Mr. Clements said the House would | be appropriating money which it did not pos- sens. Mr. Hemphill said because the Senate had made great additions to the District appropria- tion bill was no reasou why the House should agree to the changes, Mr. Atkinson attacked the claim made by Mr. Clements that the District was in a bad way financially. He drew attention also to the assessment of cost on adjoining property as followed in Chicago and Boston, MR. BLUNT THINKS THERE IS NO NEED OF A PARK. Mr. Blunt said there was no surplus in the District treasury; that the present rate of ex- penditures swallowed up everything. To carry out the pending bill recourse must be had | | to a new issue of bonds or to some other method of raising the money. The United States had done enough | in the way of assuming the debts of the Dis- trict, and it should be stopped and this measure | be postponed. There was no occasion for such | a park. This city was already plentifully sup- | plied with parks without rushing pell-mell out | of the city for additions, Mr. Kerrsaid the District debt was already | over 220,000,000, more than three and one-half the debt in proportion to valuation than the debfof Virginia, which it was thought necessary to repudiate. “Gentlemen had said,” tinued Mr. Kerr, ‘that this land would greatly increase in value in afew years. If it does LORD HELP THE DISTRICT. Land inthe District now was so high thata poor man could just as easily build a house in the moon as in the District.” Mr. Hooker followed in an argumentshowing 1 why the District should be charged with one- | half the cost. In reply to the remark that | Washington had a sufficient number of parks he said that the Soldiers’ Home was not a park; it was a home for the soldiers, Neither was Arlington a park; it wasa burying ground. ‘THE PARK A PUBLIC BENEFIT. : Mr. Adams said the purchase would not be a mistake 1m a financial sense as the amount of taxable property would be largely increased and the District greatly benefited. THE NEED OF A PARK. Mr. Hempbill explained the action of the amendment which had been passed. It killed speculation in this property, he said. Ifa piece of adjoining property was enhanced in valne by this fact, even to the extent of ten cents, the owner would have to pay that amount, ‘The people of the District wanted this park. There is nota park in the District, he said, where a child could put their feet on the grass. | This park is going to obviate that trouble and } establish a place where the poor man can go and spend the day without obstruction. MR. BLUNT ON THE DISTRICT INDEBTEDNESS, Mr. Blunt (Ga.) referred to the condition of the finances of the District. Over $20,000,000, | he said, was the debt and here was an increase proposed. Millions of dollars | were being spent by* the government | in reclaiming 700 acres of land on the river front, which has often been eloquently de- scribed im this House as a park; why should more land be purchased of rivate parties, Mr. Blunt said | he saw no reason to suppose that children would have any more privileges as to welking on the grass in Rock Creek Park than they pos- | sessed in any other park, Mr. Kerr followed in opposition to the en- tire scheme. ‘The other amendments proposed by the com- mittee were then adopted. MR, M’ADOO’S AMENDMENT TO SHORTEN AND WIDEN THE PARK, Mr. McAdoo, by unanimous consent,offeredan amendment to the first section of the bill which } provides that the tract of land to be obtained shall run northwardly following the course | of the creek of a width not less at any point | than 1,500 feet of which not less than 400 feet | shall be on either side of said creek. | The Dill as it stands provides that | the tract shall be not less that 460 feet of which | not less than 50 feot shall be on either side of | the creek. Mr. McAdoo said he did not believe in confining the park to a narrow tract lying | down in a hot valley. The park should be shorter and wider. MR. HEMPHILL EXPLAINS. Mr. Hemphill explained that the park would be narrow only between certain limita North of Broad Branch road and Blagden Mill road the park could stretch out to such width as the commissioners might think proper. Mr. Hemphill finally agreed to have the sec- tion provide that the park should be of a width not less at any point than 1,200 feet, of which 400 feet shall be on either side of said creek. All other lines in reference to the width were to be struck out. Mr. Tillman (8.C.) wanted more money spent for useful things in the District and less for beautiful things, Washington was a natural park as it was, whereas the court house, police headquarters and District buildings were disgraces to the | city and nation. Mr. McAdoo’s amendment to the firet section was agreed to, A FAVORABLE REPORT ON THE BILL, Mr. Holman moved that the bili be reported to the House with a recommendation that it be recommitted to the committee on the District of Columbia. Tellers were ordered on the motion, the democrats, as a rule, voting for and the republicans in opposition to the motion to recommit. The motion was lost, yeas 55, nays 60. A motion to lay the bill aside with a favorable recommendation was then agreed to, This passes the bill, FOR A NEW BRIDGE AT BENNINGS, The next measure called up was the bill pro- viding for a bridge across the Eastern branch on the Bennings road, in place of the present structure, $60,000 is appropriated for the purpose, . Clements said he wished again to draw attention to the state of the finances of the District and the great chance for a deficit, Appropriations were exceeding all estimates anda shock would soon be felt. This bill, he thought, was probably of « better character than the last one considered, but the principle was the same, Mr. Post of Illinois said this bridge was greatly needed. ‘The present structure was very old aud was even unsafe to life. The bill was read by paragraphs and then laid aside with a tay. le recommendation, THE ROCK CREEK BAILROAD. ‘The bill amending the route of the Rock Creek railroad was passed. PROPOSED BRIDGE FROM SOUTH CAPITOL STREET TO GIESBORO. Senator Barbour today introduced a bill, by request, appropriating $5,000 for the survey of ‘a bridge from the foot of South Capitol street to Giesvoro. which have authorized their ministers to the United States to meet in Washington and sign for them. It is believed tnat all of the coun- tries inthe conference will sign eventually. This is the crowning act in the conference as this was the principal business for which the conference was called. PENS THAT WILL BE PRESERVED. One of the extremely interesting features in connection with the signing of the treaty was the evident appreciation by the signers of the fact that the occasion was _one which will be historically great. Mr. Mendonca of Brazil brought with him a gold pen and holder, both perfectly new and to be used for the first time when the Brazilian document was made com- lete. Dr. Cruz of Guatemala and Camaano of cuador were also similarly provided and the pens they brought were used on their own copies of the precious agreement by all the other ministers’ plenipotentiary. The treaty was printed in three languages—English, Spanish and Portuguese—on large sheets of heavy paper and those who had special pens sent them, with their documents to their re- spective governments, After the signing was over an effort was made to secure the speedy attendance of a photographer so that all the participants might have their counterfeit presentments pre- served aswell as their autographs, but no photagrapher responded and there is no picture, UNDER THE DOME, The Cuban Republic—Notes from the Committee Rooms. Mr. Call gave notice in the Senate today that on the 15th of May he would address the Sen- ate on the joint resolution heretofore offered by him as to opening negotiations with Spain to allow Cuba to establish a republic, ASHAMED OF THE STEAMER MICHIGAN. Senator Farwell today presented a memorial from the Farragut Naval Association of Chicago asking Congress to cause the steamer Michigan on the great lakes to be replaced by a new and suitable vessel. The memorial says the Michigan has been in the service fifty years,and has become so completely worn out as to make it very de- sirable as a prudential measure that she should be replaced by a new and staunch ship, and | further, “that if the foreign visitors to the ex- position see this antiquated vessel during her annual cruise throughout the great lakes it will become a matter of discredit to our govern- ment and excite ridicule from all who are fa- miliar with superior modern vessels of other nations,” TO LEGALIZE ACTS OF THE LEGISLATURE OF ARIZONA. The Senate committee on territories today ordered a substitute reported for the bill re- ferred to the committee to legalize the acts of the Arizona Territorial legislature, The sub- stftute will legalize the acts of ail legislatures, including the last one, reserving to future leg- islatures the power to amend or repeal any of the acts so legalized, FOR THE PROTECTION OF RAILROAD MEN.

Canal or Railroad—What They Say in Rockville—A Farmers’ Alliance. Correspondence of the Tur EVENING Stan. Rockviie, April 27. Messrs, Dennis E. O'Neal, John Galloway, George Smith and George Washington, who have been traveling with the receivers re- cently appointed by Justice Alvey of the circuit court for Washington county along the line of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, arrived here last night and will continue their jonrney to their homes in Cumberland tomorrow. From what can be gathered from their conversation it is to be inferred that the damages to that work are less than has been supposed and not so formidable as to deter a company from tak- ing hold of that waterway und running it to the advantage of the coal companies and the farmers living along the line. As was said in this correspondence ten days ago, the receivers found the greatest break in the canal between Great Falls and Georgetown, the Jong log wall embankment a short distance below Great Falls being almost entirely washed out, leaving agapin the embankment that it would take many thousands of dollars to repair. The idea of the residents here is that the canal can be repaired, that sufficient money can be raised for the purpose, but they laugh at any proposi- tion which Jooks to this being done under state management or under the pre of public works. 1’ Th the Baltimore and 0) canal and will furnish the necessary capital for that purpose, and they also claim tuat the Pennsyivania railroad is the chief backer of the West Virginia railroad in its efforts to reach tide water by a line of itsown.

A NERVOUS FEELING ALL AROUND, The trouble, however, does not affect the larger and more responsible brokers, although there is a nervous feeling today all along F street and a number of brokers who do not really fear any serious trouble have been « little chary about taking much new business until the market is in a more settled state, There have not been many actual cases of closing, although a number of bucket shops have been obliged to temparize and ask a few days time in which to settle up. The more hopeful dealers on the street say the trouble will not last long, and doubts are expressed as to whether there will be much actual loss, On the whole, however, “panicky” is the word that would best describe the condi- tion of affairs among the smaller local brokers’ offices, generally known as bucket shops. How long it will last no one can say with any degree of certainty. DOING BUSINESS WITH PAPER.

In the Court in General Term today Justice Hagner delivered the opinion of the court im the casesof Lewis Williams and Benjamin Hawkins, convicted of murder, affirming the judgment below in each case. Williams, after two trials, was convicted of having caused the death of ex-Policeman W. C. Alder near Bennings in October, 1887, by strik- ing him on the head with a stone, having pre- viously had a quarrel and fight with him. The court said that they had given each case care ful consideration and could fiud pe error i the rulings, IN THE CASE OF WILLIAMS the question was whether there had been suff- cient cooling time between the quarrels, The testimon y on this question showed that prob ably haltan hour had intervened, The de- fendant himself had supplied what evidence was needed to prove that there was cooling time. After the first quarrel he walked up the railroad and played the mouth organ, thereb; wing that the matter was out of his He went back to the place, and when Xpostalated with him he replied: you give good advice, bat TN. kill him to- night.” It was acool, deliberate crime and the judgment was approved, IN THE CASE OF HAWKING, convicted of the murder of his wife, Cora L., March 14 last on Virginia avenue, the court said they aw no palliating circumstances, No one saw the blow given and defendant said he killed her forsome of her smart talk, because she did uot return to the parlor social by the front door, It was an attrocious butchery and the motive seemed to be revenge. They had been living apart, n having ® paramour, dmitting all the defeudant said was true they 1a single palliating circumstance, sems to have given the prisoner could under the rules of law and court had no hesitancy in saying that the ha finding of the jury was im accord with the evi- deuce. BOTH MEN TO RE HANGRD NEXT FRIDAY. The warrants to the warden of the jail will be sent to Gen. Crocker today, and unless the President should grant another respite or commute the sentences that of Williams will be carried into effect between 8 and 12 o'clock next Friday morning aud that of Hawkins be- tween 10 and 1 o'clock Friday, It is likely, as yut three full days intervene from the decision to the executio: that friends of the prisoners will make efforts for a further respite and per- haps « commutation of sentence. HAWKINS SAYS HE IS READY TO DIR, Both prisoners have been paying attention to their spiritual affairs for some time, and have not been given much encouragement as to their hances when their cases were heard in the Court in General Term, so that the decision rendered today will net surprise them, Revs. br. Howard of the Zion Baptist Church and John Roberts of the Colored Yo Men's Christian Association, who are Hawkins’ spiritaal advisers, were at the jail yesterday, they told Hawkins that the chances of gettis @ new trial were against him. The news not affect him in the slightest degree, as he savs he has made his peace ‘dy to die. When arrested Hawkins weakened consider- ably, and it was thought he would remain so until the time set for his execution and there would be a scene upon the scaffold, but his spiritual advisers say thet imevent of his execution that will not be the case. They say that he is a changed man en- tirely and if he has to walk to the gallows he do so with a firm step and steady nerve, Tomorrow the reverend gentlemen will call upon the President and ask for a commutation of sentence, and if that is denied they will ask for a further respite of two weeks or @ month to give the condemned man further time to make preparation to die. WILLIAMS READY To MEET MIs Pare. They will also make the request for Lonis Williams, who is of the Catholic faith, He is also firm in his convictions that his sins have been forgiven, and he, too, is ready to meet his fate. > A Wife Granted a Divorce.
