The Arthenio Loses Six Men by Storm and Fire.} New Yorx, Juno 30.—The bark Arthenio, which arrived here last night from Windsor, Ne S., had among its crew two seamen—Henry Williams and George Wilker, who were part of the crew of the Norwegian bark Nordap, which was burned at sea June 9, June 7, when off the Grand Banks, on her way to London and Christiana, she met rough weather. A fierce gale knocked her about that day and night. A heavy sea boarded the vessel, smashed the wheel house and swept one of the crew over- board. On the 9th fire was discovered among the cotton in the hold. The crow fought heroi- cally against the fire. The flames enveloped rigging and masts, The yard arm of the miz- zen mast fell and killed two of the crew, The flames rapidly spread and the captain reali: the hopelessness of longer fighting against He gave orders to clear away the boats. Just then the mizzen mast fell and knocked three of the crew intothesea, The others finally got away in the boats and were adrift for four days when they were finally picked up by the Norwegian bark Agatha, from London. oe Turned Tongue Slugger. New Yorx, June 30.—John L, Sullivan arrived in this city from New Orleans yester- day afternoon, In answer to a question con- cerning the row between Muldoon and himself Sullivan said: “I saw a letter which Muldoon wrote to one of the prosecuting officers offering to turn state’s evidence against Donovan and myself and testifying that we were implicated in get- ting up and carrying on a prize fight, pro- viding he was allowed to go free. A man who Rane do a thing of that kind is acurand a coward.

He wasnotscen by the conductor until after he bad been picked up in an unconscious condition, The police patrol wagon was sent for and the injured man was removed to the Emergency Hospital, sci cbt Mls THE ACCUSED LIEUTENANTS, Some of the Details of the Charges Laid Before Commisioner Robert. It will be several days yet before the trial of Lieuts. Guy and Boteler commences, aud from the witnesses to be examined it is believed that the trial will take up a good deal of time. The charges have been formulated by the attorney for the District, but as yet they have not received the approval of the major of police. It is authoritatively stated that the charges under which Lieut. Guy is to be tried are, first, bribery; secondly, conduct unbecoming an ofticer, and thirdly, inefficiency. The first is the most serious charge, and consists in the allegation that he accepted a bribe from a noted gambling house while he was Sergeant, This charge hinges upon the testimony of ex-Policeman Atkinson, at pres- ent a door keeper at the White House, buts patrolman at the time of the alleged bribery, who in his testimony before Col. Robert stated that every month he handed Lieut, Guy (then Sergt. Guy) an envelope con- taining $40, which they divided. The money, he testified, came from’a well-known gambli house. The charges contained in the secon count—namely, conduct unbecoming an offi- cer—relates to Lieut. Guy's alleged intimacy with Mrs. Nellie D. fish, ‘The charge of inef- ficiency, it is understood, rests on Lieut, Guy's alleged failure to successfully raid a certain | house after all plans had been laid, Lieut. Boteler is to be tried on a like num- ber of charges, namely, drunkenness, conduct unbecoming an officer and general inefficiency, ‘The most serious charge in his case is that of conduct unbecoming an officer and it consists in an alleged intimacy between him and the wives of two policemen. ———__—— DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.

The situation In the House is decidedly one of anxiety. Neither side can see its way clear to a victory on Wednesday and both sides re- gard the bill at issue as of the highest and gravest importance. The democrats con- tinte to denounce the national election scheme as of the most revolutionary character, calculated to oppress | the people of the south in particular, but capa- ble of being oppressively exercised everywhere, while the republicans continue to advocate it upon grounds of essential protection to the congressional bailot boxes throughout the the whoie country. REPUBLICAN DEFECTIONS, The advantage so far is with the democrats in the simple fact that while their ranks are solid against the bill there are several republi- cans who have broken away from the Speaker and canuot, it is thought, be brought into camp for the bili, There is a) question as to how many bolters there are, ‘Three are outspoken and firm as a rock. They are Coleman of Louisiana, Lehiback of New Jersey and Ewart of North Carolina, Mr. Ewart and Mr. Lehiback put} themselves on record last week and Mr. Cole- man spoke against the bill today in terms that forbid the idea of his being influenced in any manner to change position. There are rumors of other defections from the repub! ranks, but as yet they have not been confirmed. ‘TALK OF A SUBSTITUTE MEASURE. The talk that at the last moment the Speaker, in order to unite his party, will withdraw the bill now under cousideration, and, instructed by the debate, present a substitute which will command the votes of his party friends, arouses interest. There 1s much speculation, too, ag to what such a bill would prob- ably contain. The situation is fraught wit so many embarrasements, and the objections to the Lodge bill urged by repubii- can seceders have been so numerous, that it is difficult to conceive of a measure which would command the full republican support that would in any important sense accomplish what the Speaker and his supporters have in view. THE SPEAKER NOT DISMAYED, But, rocky as the road seems to be, Speaker Reed is undismayed, He is exercising his best gifts asa politician in dealing with his weak- kneed brethren. He expresses the opiniun that the bill will pass, although acknowledging that the difliculty is great, He thinks the dispatch from New Orleans in this morning's news- papers giving an account of a difficulty Amite, La.,in which seven negroes were killed, points the moral he and his friends are now dwelling upon. He said dryly this morning: “The story contains the two statements that always accompany an account of a political row in the south—the negroes are dead and all is quiet now.” DISTRICT IN CONGRESS. THE DISTRICT APPROPRIATION BILL. It was rather expected that the Senate would consider the corference report on the District appropriation bill today, and! peed before adjournment this evening the | ill may be taken up, At any rate the Senate | will consider the bill tomorrow and _ finish it. The appropriation committee has, how- ever, held the fluor all day on the agricultural and legislative appropriation bills, THE COLUMBUS PARK BILL, There has been considerable anxiety felt as to the fate of the Columbus Park bill, which seemed to be slumbering in almost a trance condition in conference over the House amend- ments. The cause of the delay, however, arises from the sickness of one of the members of the conference committee—Mr. Harris. As soon a8 possible on his recovery the conference will commence their work, ALEXANDRIA. Reported for Tur EVENING STAR.

Today the period for taking the census ends. By a coincidence today is also the birthday of Superintendent Porter. Among other pleasant incidents of the day was a ietter of congratulation from Prof. Francis A. Walker, the superintendent of the last census, He expressed the opinion that the consus just closed wasagreat success. Mr. Porter says that information received from all portions of the country indicate that the work has been gomg along and that there has been no serious hitch, Of course all the returns are not yet sin. In some of the sparsely settled sections it takes several days’ traveling to get one name. There are cases where onumerators have been delaved by sickness and other causes and they will be al- lowed an entension of time. Mr. Porter esti- mates that of the 48,000 enumeration districts into which the country is divided # per cent have Leen completed. The returns are not yet all in even of the cities and towns where the census taking was practically ended the 18th of June. But they are retained by the super- visors so as to make all necessary changes. and when fully completed are sent to the Census Office, where the rough count is in progress. ESTIMATES OF TRE GENERAL RESULT. In speaking about the results of the census Mr. Porter said today that of course it was too early to base an opinion upon the retarns. Six months ago he had estimated that the Population would be 64,500,000, Statisticians all over the country have made guesses, and some of them are as follows: J. C, C. Kennedy, 77,266,989; Silas L. Loomis, 248,252: E. elliot, 64,600,000; F. W. Hews, 64,584,000; San FranciscoJ papers, 64.000.000; Francis Bonynge, 61,946,143; Congress (esti- mated), 60,000,000. —_$_———_. AMONG THE LAW MAKERS. The Speaker Says the House Could Ad- Journ Next Week. Spenking on the subject of adjonrnment Speaker Reed said this morning: “The ques- tion rests entirely with the Senate. For the first time in many years the House is ahead of the Seuate with the pubhe business, We over on this side could wind up the session next week, but, of course, we shall not be able to do Inquiry on the Senate side of the Capitol re- vealed the fact that there was no thought of adjournment there before August, while several Senators feared that September 1 wouldgstill find them here. THE RIVER AND HARBOR BILL. The Senate committee on commerce today Gecided to recommend several important amendments to the river and harbor bill. One of them gives authority to the engineer in charge of Galveston harbor to contract for the completion of the work and xppropriates $500,000 tor the year 189-01. Another amendment appropriated £900,000 for the constfuction of a new lock at St. Mary's Falls and $400,000 to improve the bay lal channel immediately below the falls. Both these improvements are the subjects of sep: rate measures, but it was deemed best to in- clude them in the general bill. NEARLY A MILLION NEEDED. ‘The Seeretary of the Interior today trans- mitted to the House an estimate of an ad- ditional appropriation of 090 to carry out the provisions of the disability pension bill signed by the President last Friday. Of th amount $800,000 is for surgeons fecs, $100,000 for clerk hire aud the rest for incidental ex- penses, THE MAN WHO SUCCEEDS MR. CARLISLE Hon, W. W. Dickerson, sworn in today to succeed Mr. Carlisle in the House, is a young man just turned forty, trimly built, of medium height and decidedly good looking. He is a lawyer by profession, has served several terms asa member of the Kentucky senate and was reckoued one of the best debaters in that body. Mr. Dickerson’. reception was a particular hearty one, due, of course, in great measur the very high esteem in which his predecessor is held in the House. Lut those who know the new member well predict that his hold on members in his own right will shortly be very strong. Mr, Dickerson’s committee assign- ments have not yet been arranged by the Speaker. UNION PACIFIC LANDS. In response to a Senate resolution asking the Secretary of the Interior to report the cause of witholding patents for lands within the | Swoui granted limits of the Union Pacific Railroad Company which are free from all claims and were not reserved at definite location of the road, y Noble has sent areply. He stati that after a careful exminat of th he tinds that the patents were suspei cause of the indebtedness of the road to the government. The Secretary, however, is of the opinion that this indebtedness is not a just cause tor withholding the patents, and that he had decided to order the patents to be is- racticable. itis stated that the lists of lands already filed by the company in the General Land Ottice comprise about ten million acres of land, mainly in Nebraska and Utah. —— Real Estate Matters, R.

For example, @ number of applications have bees received signed only by the attorney. Some have also been prepared and prior to the date when the bill ooeadiny which is contrary to the new regulations just issued. The first defect applies to all pension cases and is sufficient to cause the return of papers. There are, however, a number of minor defects which appear in the applica- tions, and in regard to these Gen.
