ACTION OF THE UPPER HOUSE. —_—_———_—— Appointment of a Committee to Super- intend the Funeral. —_o———. SUSPENSION DAY IN THE HOUSE. The Chaplain Refers in His Prayer to Sen- ator Beck’s Death. SENATE, There was an unusually large attendance of Senators present in the charaber and of spec- tators in the galleries this morning when the opening prayer was offered by the chaplain. Mr, Beck’s desk and chair were covered with black crape, and a feeling of solemnity seemed to pervade the chamber. The chaplain made a feeling allusion to the “shadow of death” under which the Senate met. MR. BLACKBURN’S ANNOUNCEMENT. As soon as the journal of Saturday was read Mr. Blackburn rose and, in a voice tremulous with suppressed emotion, said: Mr. President, my colleague is dead, It is not my purpose at this time to speak cither of him or of the great services which he has rendered to his country. In the freshness of the sorrow, the love which | bore him would blind with its’ tears. The drapery of his desk furnishes a fitting type of the sor- row which pervades every heart in this cham- ber. A great commonwealth, with bowed head, today puts on the weeds of mourning. At an appropriate time, and in the early future. I will ask the Senate to afford to his frieuds an opportunity to pay their tribute to his memory, I will now ask the Senate to consider the reso- lutions which I send to the clerk’s desk. THE RESOLUTIONS, Resolved, That the Senate has heard with great sorrow of the death of the Hon. James B. Beck, late @ Senator from the state of Ken- tucky. Resolved, That a committee of seven Sena- tors be appointed by the President pro tem- pore to take order for superiutending the fu- neral of Mr. Beck, which will take place to- morrow (‘Tuesday)in the Senate chamber at 1 o'clock p.m., and that the Senate will attend the same, Resolved, Asa further mark of the respect entertained by the Senate for his memory, that his remains be removed from Washington to Kentucky in charge of the sergeant-at-arms and attended by the committee, which shall have full power to carry this resolution into effect. Resolved, That the secretary communicate these proceedings to the Honse of Representa- tives and invite the House of Representatives to attend the funeral tomorrow, ‘Tuesd o'clock, and to appoint a like committe Resolved, That invitations be extended to the President of the United States and the mbers of his cabinet, the Chief Justice and the associate justices of the Supreme Court and the diplomatic corps to attend the funeral in the Senate chamber. Resolved, As a further mark of respect, that the Senate do now adjourn, The following Senators were po gsc as the committee to superintend the funeral: Messrs, Blackburn, Harris, Vance, Kenna, Dawes, Evarts and Mandersoa, HOUSE. In his prayer this morning the chaplain made feeling reference to the sudden death of Sen- ator Beck, speaking of the deceased as a man large in understanding, echooled by work, ripe in experience, dauntless in courage, kindly by nature and habit, whose patriotism was unsullied, his integrity and honor above sus- picion, the dedication of whose days aud nighte, powers of mind and body to the common wou. were absolute. CONFERENCE ON THE CUSTOMS ADMINISTRATIVE BILL. On motion of Mr. McKinley (Ohio) the Sen- ate amendments to the customs administrative bill were non-concurred in and a conference ordered, Messrs. McKinley, Burrows and Car- lisle were appointed conferces. On motion of Mr. Wallace ( .) the rules were suspended and a bill was passed for the sale of a portion of the navy yard aud naval hospital fands in Brooklyn ‘to the city of Brooklyn for market purposes, OTHER BILLS PASSED, Under suspension of the rules the following bills were passed: Senate bill to establish two additional land offices in the state of Washing- ton; Senate bill authorizing the Arkansas Pass Harbor Company to improve Arkansas Pass; a bill for the issue of orduance stores and sup- plies to the state of Maine to replace similar stores destoy e, anda bill for the re- moval of the . court house building at Bal- tumore, Md. ~.— KENTUCKY SENATORSHIP. TH A General Impression That Mr. Car- lisle Will Succeed Mr. Beck. There is very general impression that Mr. Carlisle will succeed Mr. Beck in the United States Senate. There is considerable interest in this suecessorship and there is a number of good men, either of whom might be selected, If the matter is settled by state pride merely Mr. Carlisle will certainly be chosen, as he is regarded as the blest man of the state, Next to him in prominence stand ex-Chief Justice Lindsay, who is now a state senator, and Representative W. C. P. Brecken- ridge. Others spokenof are ex-Representative J. A. MeKenzie and ex-Representative John Young Brown, whose attack on Butler gave him wide notoriety, and who became con- spicuous on account of his joining with Lamar, Gordon and other southern men to sustain the electoral commission after it had been ap- pointed, THE LEGISLATURE NOW IN SESSIO! The Kentucky legislature is now in session and it is desirable that the election should be held by this legislature, which was chosen without any idea of electing a suecessor to Mr. Beck and is free from any money influences, It has always been a matter of state pride in Kentucky to send the best man in the state to represent them in Congress and corporation. Money has never played any part in the selection of these men, ‘ow railroad and other corporate interests are ettung more powerful in the state, and = when Gfe ascok was re-clected the lass time two or three money candidates appeared in the field, ‘Though Mr. Beck was chosen unanimously, the fact that these candidates showed their heads atall suggests the growth of such in- fluence. FIVE YEARS OF THE TERM LEFT. There are five years yet to run before the term to which Mr. Beck was elected will ex- pireand itis quite sure thata man chosen now would succeed himself if he’ proved a | success in the Senate. Mr. Carlisle declined the Senatorship at the time the successor to Sena- tor Williams was elected and Mr. Blackburn was then chosen. It has been suggested that he might decline it again with the idea of be- ing Speaker of next House. There is nothing in that, The democrats have not got the next House yet, and if get it it has been pretty well understood for e time that Mr, Carlisle has no invention of standing in for Speaker. It is pretty well underst among democrats now that their next Speaker will probably be Mills or Crisp. + Marriage Licenses.

The Little Boat Runs from New York in Twenty-Kight Hours, THE HER ARRIVAL AT THE NAVY YARD—DESCRIPTION OF THE WONDERFUL LITTLE VESSEL—SHE WILL REMAIN HERE SOME TIME—TO BE FILLED WITH TORPEDO TUBES. A long, low, narrow little boat, painted a dirty gray, with two flat smoke stacks and @ couple of warty-looking turrets protruding from her round back, lies tied to a wharf at the navy yard, the center of admiration and comment. Her crew. consisting of sixteen brawny-locking fellows, with their wide trousers rolled up to their knees, were splashing around on the wharves this morning with water buckets and cleaning a lot of wooden gratings. The little vessel was the new torpedo boat Cushing, recently built by Herre- schoff. the blind inventor, for the U.S. navy, and she arrived at the yard last evening at about 6 o'clock, after a twenty-eight-hour run from New York’ in a heavy sea, This ves- sel is probably one of the swiftest ever put into the water, her record last week of running from Newport to New York in 6 hours and 57 minutes being the best on record by 7 min- utes, A VISIT TO THE BOAT. A Stan reporter visited the wharf where the Cushing lies this morning shortly after 10 o'clock and found everything in a_ bustle, ehip cleaning. Lieut. Herbert Winslow, the commander of the brisk little vessel, had gone to the Navy Department to report his arrival, and Ensign William ‘Trux- tun, the executive, was in charge.

Employers Here and There Concede the | Eight-Hour Demand. Cuicaao, May 5,—Today will probably see an amicable adjustment of the labor troubles in the lumber district and the “Black road.” It 4s believed that all the planing mill owuers will grant the demands of their men for an eight honr day and resume operations. In all the iron works on the Black road, with the possible exception of the Malleable, business will be resumed as if nothing had happened. The strike at the Malleable may be settled, too. The molders, who have demanded a 10 per cent advance of wages, feel confident that they will reach a definite settlement with President Bailey, in which case the strike will come to a sudden end. ‘The striking carpenters read in the afternoon papers of Saturday and the morning papers of Sunday that the arbitration committees had come to an agreement and that work was to be resumed for the new bosses’ association today, Without waiting for orders from the strikers headquarters many of thea: went to work this morning. When this fact was reported at headquarters runners were sent out to pull them off, Secretary Howard of the Carpenters’ Coun- cil says the men will not be allowed to resume work till every point of difference between the men and the bosses has been fully settied and this will in all probability not be accomplist before Thuraday or Friday.

HER FUTURE ARMAMENT. At present she has no armament whatever, but when completed by the government she will be provided with two torpedo tubes amid- ships and one in the bow. ‘The ordnance department of the navy is now waiting, before putting in the tubes, to tind out whether or not the Howell auto-mobile torpedo 18 a success. It is now being tried by a board. and if found to come up to the élaims of the inventor will be used on the Cushing. A number of rapid-fire guns will be mounted on the deck of the vesse en eschelon” and this will com- plete the biting powers of the boat, HOW SHE WILL FIGHT She is designed to run up on an enemy under cover ofa heavy fire from her own fleet, to sur- prise the antagonist, if possible, and shoot out | torpedo before she is discovered. If a shot i shouid strike her, good bye! Her sides and deck are covered with quarter- inch steel, which is the heaviest material used on her, and tne only protection she has from an enemy’s fire comes from her coal buukers ou each side, extending from one boiler to the other. She carries about 30 tons of coal, THE LOOKOUT TOWER. Near her sharp prow, on the highest part of her curved deck, is a pilot house or conning tower of iron, round, with sides slanting slightly and a turtle-back roof that screws up and down, thus allowing a ventilating space of several inches all round. Glass ports are fixed in the sides for sighting. From this tower the vessel is run and fought, her steering apparatus being controlled by steam worked by hand gear in the tower, Here is also the firing gear of the torpedo tube, which comes up from near the water line to within a foot or two of the tower. Abaft the smokestacks is a second tower, to be used in case the forward Sprrixorierp, It, among the miners here is still unsettled.

New York, May 5.—The carpenters of this city as a body did not go on strike today to en- force their demands for eight hours as a day's work. morning it was stated that two hundred bosses had granted the demand and that only thirts tive had refused. In the latter places the men had struck, but it is expected that all the dif culties will be settled within a week. ‘The housesmiths did not go on strike, their de- mands having been complied with. Fait River, Mass., May 5.—At yesterday's meeting of the trades council representatives of the Amalgamated and Protective Weavers’ Unions expressed themselves in hearty accord with the plan to merge the two unions, and a committee was appointed to secure this end.

A little Japanese servant was hanging the officers’ pea jackets on a line to dry this morn- ing and the reporter asked him how the vessel acted, He shrugged his shoulders and said that she shook too much, Xo wonder,” laughed Mr. Truxtun. when this was told him. “He lives mght over the screw and feels every turn.” TO REMAIN HERE SOME TIME. The Cushing will probably be here for a month or six weeks and may be fitted with her armament while here. It is quite possible that Secretary Tracy may send her down the river on a test run, and in this case she will open the eyes of the river boatmen, ‘The Old Dominion steamers from New York to Norfolk take twenty-four hours for the trip, vhile the Cushing, running all the way from New York to Washington further, with one boiler, came in tweuty-eight hours, TWENTY MILLION 5S HEDULES, They are Now Being Distributed to the Census Supervisors.
