Immediately after the reading of the journal the House took a recess until 12:45. After the recess, on motion of Mr. McCreary (Ky.), the House adjourned in order to enable the mem- bers to attend the funeral ceremonies to be held in the Senate in honor of the memory of the late James B. Beck. Then, preceded by the aker and the sergeant-at-arms, the members of the House proceeded to the Senate chamber. PROHIBITION IN THE STATES. Representative Bontelle of Maine, today in- troduced in the House a bill intended to repair the damage inflicted upon the state prohibition laws by the recent decision of the Supreme Court in the original package case. The bill is in the shape of a section, which it is proposed to add to the interstate commerce act, and reads as follows: “That nothing contained in this act shall be construed to authorize the sale or traffic in in- toxicating liquors in any state contrary to the laws thereof.” CAPT, BASSETT WAS XOT THERE. When the recess taken by the Senate just be- fore the Beck obsequies today came to an end, there was a somewhat remerkable occurrence For many years past, in fact so many that the memory of man runneth not to the contrary, Capt. Bassett has always made such formal announcements to the Senate as were necessary on occasions of @ like nature to that of today, but Ks Bassett is indisposed and his doctor ordered him to remain indoors, so when Clerk McPherson of the House of Representatives appeared to notify the Senate of certain action of the House he was announced by Chief Page Stewart. PHYSICAL CULTURE FOR PAGES. Col. Canaday, the sergeant-at-arms of the Senate, has fitted up two of the rooms in the terrace of the Capitol asa gymnasium for the use of the Senate pages, The little fellows have to be at the Capitol by Yo'clock every morning and remain there very often until 6 or 7 o'clock in the evening. Col. Canaday con- cluded that reasonable exercise would be bene- ficial, so he gives the boys an hour every morn- ing before the Senate convenes to develope their muscle. HIS WORK WELL DONE. Assistant Sergeant-at-arms Reade had his first experience today in looking after a big crowd and was complimented highly on the efficiency with which he discharged his duties, AFTER TRE FUNERAL. Twenty minutes after Senator Ingalls de- clared the Senate adjourned today the cham- ber had resumed its regular business-like ap- pearance. Chief Page Stewart put his boys to work and they removed the large number of extra chairs in a little while. PROCEEDINGS IN THE HOUSE YESTERDAY. A message having been received from the Senate in the House yesterday afternoon an- nouncing the death of Senator Beck and in- viting the House to be present at the funeral services. today, Mr. Breckin- ridge Ky offered’ a — resolution accepting the invitation and requesting the Speaker to appoint a committee of nine repre- sentatives to take action with a similar com- mittee appointed by the Senate to take charge of the funeral arrangements. The reso- lutions were adopted unanimousiy. After some feeling remarks by Mr. Breckinridge, the Speaker, in accordance with the terms of the resolution, appointed the following committee: Messrs. Breckinridge of Kentucky, Holman, Blount, Bland, Hatch, Wilson of Ky., Banks, Dunnell and Butterworth. The House then, a8 a mark of respect to the de- ceased, at 2:30 adjourned till today.

To the Faitor of Tae EvENre Sr, I would suggest one or two sites for the city post office. First, the square bounded by 5th and 6th and D and E strects northwest, which is high ground and centrally located and very convenient to both railroad depots, The post office could occupy the basement and main floor, and if the authorities thought proper the District offices could occupy as many floors as might be added, which on the whole would make an economical outlay for the gov- ernment. My second suggestion as to a proper site would be to purchase the square bounded by E and F and 8th and 9th streets northwest, and extend the Post Office Department build- ing so aa to take in said square, leaving the en- tire ground floor for the use of the city post office.

The continued liquor case of Griffin 8. Reed, whose place of business is at No. 1607 11th street, heretofore mentioned in Tax Stan, was called in the Police Court this morning to hear the evidence for the defense. He was charged with selling liquor without license. Mr. Closs called the colored waiter, George Laws, who served beer to the government witnesses, ac- cording to their testimony taken last Saturday. Laws testified that he was in the employ of Mr. Harris, whose place adjoins Mr. Reed's, and he said that since Mr. Reed's application was rejected witness had not been able to pur- chase any beer there. When the witnesses in the case came to Harris’ place last week he says he told them that no beer was served in the house, but he would go out and get them beer. He said he went across the street to = Columbia Club and bought the beer for em, Sergt. Dunnigan then took the stand to show that there had been beer in Reed's place since the rejection of the application. Ali he could say was that he saw a beer pump in the place, and when Lawyer Closs asked if there was any beer in it he replied in the negative. but added that the pump was used for cooling beer. “Sergeant Dunnigan seems anxious to swear this man through,” remarked Lawyer Closs, ‘‘and he also wants to swear his brother officers throug a 's none of your business,” retorted the ° “Yes it is my business,” added the lawyer, “you seem to be very anxious about this case.” After hearing other evidence and arguments the court imposed a fine of $30. Counsel noted an appeal. Reed's is the house for making favorable re- ports on which several policemen have been on trial, as stated in Saturday's Star. ————__—_ THEY WERE ALL FOUND GUILTY. The Trial of Police Sergts. Duvall, Con- nelly and Jones and Private Moreland. The Commissioners today received the find- ings of the trial board in the cases of Sergeants Duvall, Connelly and Jones and Private More- land of the police force, who were tried by a board consisting of Col. Robert, Chief of Police Moore and Capt, Austin for —vio- inting the regulations of the po- lice department in failing to report the character of the house occupied by Griffin S. Reed. It will be remembered that Tar Srar has from time to time called attention to the facts connected with this case and how Col, Robert personally visited the place in question and found sufficient evidence, in his opinion, to refuse the house a liquor license, The trial took place several days ago and the board was unanimous in finding them all guilty and recommending that Sergts. Duvail and Connelly and Private Moreland be dis- missed from the force and Sergt. Jones be reprimanded and cautioned to exercise more watchfulness in the future. These papers have not as yet been acted upon by the Commissioners, but it is believed that they will approve ‘the findings of the board, especially in view of the fact that Col. Robert has conducted these investigations himself, The officers implicated seem to have ob- tained a notion of the findings of the board, for already a great deal of influence has been brought to bear upon Col, Robert to change his decision. The colonel, however, is firm and it is understood will stick to his position. Five Days in Jail for Mutiny. The warrant which was issued from the Police Court Saturday for the arrest of Karl W. Wilsen, a sailor on the schooner Lydia M. Deering. on a charge of refusing to do duty, as published in yesterday's Star, was served yes- terday by Policeman Chamberlain, and the defendant being unable to furnish bail was locked up. This morning the case was called in the Police Court aud the master of the schooner, W. H. Hamilton, told the story of the defendant's alleged refusal to do duty about twenty miles off the coast of Virgini:. Witness said he ordered Wilsen to tar the ropes, cut he twice refused because his hand was sure, The defendant said he refused to tar the rops because he was not furnished with a brush and he did not want to use his hand because the tar would injure it. He accused the master of having used bad and threatening language to- ward him. Judge Miller read the act which requires the master to record any alleged disobedience in the log and read it to the accused. This the captain had not complied with, The cou finally disposed of the case by sentencing Wil- sen to five days in jail, —— The Police Looking for Him. The police of the different precincts were notified this afternoon to look out for and ar- rest aninsan> colored man named Harry Mid- dleton, who has three small children with him.

Yesterday morning at 2 o'clock Sheriff Drafts, who occupies part of the jail as a residence, heard a rapping at his door. Before he could rise the blows of a sledge hammer broke in the door and a moment later a mob of masked men surrounded his bed and overpowered him. ‘The lynchers secured his keys and gained entrance to the jail, When Leaphart, whom they sought, appreciated his peril, he made a desperate fight for his life. He prevented entrance to his cell for a time by holding the door untila volley of shots drove him into a corner. ‘There, with astout stick which he had se- cured, he se with the desperation of a mad man_ and felled the first four or five who en- tered, The lynchers had intended taking him outside and hanging him in the yard, but his resistance prevented this, They poured volley after volley into his cell, some five hundred shots being fired. Finally two bullets simulta- neously pierced his brain and he fell lifeless, ‘The lynchers then departed, The inquest will be held today, and it 1s stated some of the lynchers can be identified. Great excitement prevails, but in the vicinity of the occurrence public sentiment seems to be in approval of the lawless act, Pasted on @ tree in front of the jail was the following: “Gov. Richardson and Judge Wal- lace are responsible for lynch law in Lexing- ton county.

He spoke of the injustice that would ensne if the bill became a law, aud said a man might ride ail day for five cents. Mr. Douglass suggested that a system of transfers might be devised so that a person could ride but upon two different roads; in r words, could ride upon two different lines but afterward acknowledged that that was not practicable, Mr. Dunlop said the bill if adopted would destroy the railroads of Washington.
