ee CITY AND DISTRICT. > The principal value of Tuz Evexrxe Stam to advertisers is the fact that it is not thrown away after once being read, but passes through half a dozen pairs of hands at least be- fore being tossed aside. This is the adpantage presented by a farnly newspaper, THE RAILROAD BILL. Another District Day Used Up Without Definite Result. The action of the House yesterday falls far short of insuring the passage of the Atkinson bill, It shows, however, how watchful of its interests are the friends of the railroad and what an influence they can exert upon the House if thegriends of the people are for a moment off their guard. While a very large number of the men who want to preserve the Fights of the District against the encroach- ments of the corporation were absent the rail- road people were careful to assemble their full force. They succeeded in undoing some of the good work done at the last District day, when the House voted to recommit the bill with in- structions, but they made no progress toward the passage of the bill. As stated in yesterday's Stan, the matter came up with aroll-call on the motion to table the motion to reconsider the recommittal of the bill, and this motion was defeated by a Vote of 55 yeas, 113 n: The recommittal of the bill was then recon- sidered by a vote of 110 yeas to 51 nays. A motion to adjourn was then made by Mr. Milliken and was lost. By a vote of 108 to 51 the previous question was ordered on the motion to recommit, upon which the vote recurred after reconsideration. Mr. Milken moved to reconsider the vote by which the previeus question was ordered on the vote to recommit. Mr. Bayne then moved to lay this motion on the sable. ‘The vote resulted 86 to 33, and the point of Bo quorum was made. Pending a further count the House adjourned. Thirty-one of those members who voted to Fecommit the bill at the last District day were absent yesterday. Seventeen changed sides and voted with the railroad. These were Breck- enridge (Ky. ), Clarke (Ala. ), Crain (Tex.), Cul- bertson (Pa.), Dolliver, Forney, Gest, Kelley, Lewis, McClellan, McCreary, Morrow, Owen Ind.), Penuington, Stewart (Tex.) and Vheeler (Ala. ). But fifteen members who voted with the railroad a month ago were absent yesterday. The bill is now im practically the same con- dition it was when the House met on the 14th of July. Stripped of parliamentary circumlo- cution the question that comes up next Dis- trict day, whether or not the bill should be re- committed with the sam instructions with which #% was Fecommittgd on the last District it is not recommitted the bill is still sub- t to amendment, as if no vote to recommit ever been taken. A motion to recommit ith other instruetions—such as to provide for Jower grade crosgings, say—will be in order. MURDERER KEMMLER’S BODY. The Effect of the Electric Current on the Blood and Brain. Dr. Geo. E. Fell, one of the physicians pres- entat the autopsy on Murderer Kemmler, filled a jar of fragments of Kemmler’s body to take to Buffalo for scientific purposes. That jar was stolen by somebody. Kemmler’s skull was sawed into four pieces and thoroughly scraped. Dr. Daniels took one piece, which shows the effect of theelectrodes. Dr. Daniels thus describes it: - “The blood channels within the circle where the electrode touched are all colored a dark blue, while outside of it they are red. The blood vessels lie between a thin membrane, which has been removed, and when we sawed the skull open we found that the blood within the circle of the electrode was like charcoal. ‘The application of the current had absorbed all the waters of the blood. Between the two layers of bone which compose the skull spongy substance which, acting as a cushion, Protects the brain against blows on, the head. ithin the compass of the electrode this dis- appeared, being dried’up by the electricity. ‘The doctor has two vials, one filled with FF THE BOYS IN BLUE Their Grand Assembly in Historic Old Boston. As the Baltimore, fiving the President's flag and bearing President Harrison, Secretaries Rusk and Noble and Private Secretary Halford, entered Boston harbor yesterday afternoon the new cruiser was met by the other vessels of the fleet—the cruiser Atlanta, the corvette Kear- sarge, the gun boats Petrel and Yorktown, the dispatch boat Dolphin, the dynamite cruiser Vesuvics and the torpedo boat Cushing—all save the Kearsarge and Cushing firing salutes, The revenue cutter Gallatin, with Gov. Brack- ett, Collector Beard and Mr. and Mre. McKee on board, escorted the flag ship 5 her anchor- | age. ‘Mayor Hart and other members of the | city government also went down the harbor in the J. Putnam Bradlee to welcome the chief | magistrate, while Mrs. Noble and other ladies | were on board the Vigilant. President Harrison janded at about 5:40 p.m. amid the thunder of cannon at Rowe's wharf, and was escorted to Hotel Vendome by the tirst battalion of cavalry, Maj. Horace G. Kemp, | the ronte being through Broad, State, Wasbing- | ton, School. Tremont, Boylston and Dartmouth | streets. The sidewalks and windows along the line of march, which was nearly two miles in extent, were packed with enthusiastic multi- tudes, who greeted the President with hand clapping and cheers, The President rode with Gov. Brackett ina carriage drawn by four dark bays. carried his bat in his hand and | bowed right and left at the greetings of the | throngs. Behind rode Secretaries Rusk and Noble, and in « third carriage were Private nor’s staif. President Harrison occupies the state suite | at the Vendome, and the reception room has been put im regal floral dress. A great arch of evergreens, mingled with gladiolus, is in front of the bay windows on the Commonwealth avenue side. From this to posts and pillars of green hang long festoons of laurel ornamented with chrysanthemums, There are palms and ferns about the long double rooms, Across the [sees ball from the reception room are the President's large sitting room and sleeping room in summer array, all with the entrance quite apart from any other in use in the hotel. THE STATE BANQUET. At the Vendome a battalion of the first corps of cadews was drawn up in waiting, and as the presidential party alighted quickly opened an avenue to the state entrance of the hotel, the President mounting the steps arm in arm with Gov. Brackett. ‘The cadets were then de- tailed to guard the various approaches to the President's apartments and the reception room, A few minutes having been allowed the visitors to remove the marks of travel, the party pro- ceeded to the state dining hall, where two long tables were arranged leagthwise of the room, with a third one across the upper end of the hall, At the latter Gov. Brackett occupied the post of honor and the state’s guest, President Harrison, at his right, with Secretary Proctor on his left, Also seated at this table were Secretary of the Interior Noble, Secretary of Agriculture Rusk, Gov, Leon Abbott of New Jersey and Lieutenant Governor Haile of Massachusetts, Among the more notable persons who occupied seats at the tables were Admiral Gherardi of the United States squadron in the harbor and his staff in full uniform, Private Secretary Hal- ford, Department Commander Innis of Mussa- chusetts, Cotiector Beard, Adjutant General Dalton, Secretary of State Pierce, State Treas- urer Marden and members of the executive council and branches of the legislature. The adornments of the hall and tables were elegant, though not so profuse as on some previous oc- cusions. Flowers and plants formed the princi- pal embellishments. The table -decorations were handsome, the masterpiece being a fac simile of the White House and the state house in white sugar, the latter with igs gilded dome giving as sweet a welcome as possible to the resident of the White House from the hub itself, the state house. The company sat down shortly before seven o'clock and it was past eight when Governor Brackett broke the almost painful stillness that had prevailed throughout the entire feast, with the an- nouncement that carriages were in waiting. This was the only audible speech that was made during the entire banquet, the entire absence of «peech-making being one of the conditions upon which Gen. Harrison ac- cepted the tender of a state banquet. Escorted by the governor and members of his party they were driven to the Parker House, where they attended areception given by E. W. Kiusley Post of Boston, to Lafayette Post 149 0f New blood taken from the right side of Kemmler’s heart. It is somewhat darker and a little thicker than that taken from the left side,which is in the other bottle. The peculiarity of the blood is that it has remained in the same liquid state as when it was taken from the heart. This has been noted in persons who have met an electrical death, and is called electrolysis. The blood of a person who dies a natural death juickly coagulates, and, when placed in a dish, the serum rises to the surface while the fibrine forms a substance of the consistence of liver at the bottom of the dish. “Theoretically.” said Dr. Daniels, “the elec- tric current has destroved the fibrine. The examination of the blood may reveal whether this is the real cause, or it may give us no light on the question. I have given the analy- zation of the blood toa chemist, In this large bottle is a piece of the brain, taken from be- neath the electrode, where it had something of a buff color. Here also is a piece of the cere- bellum in the back of the head, and the first section of the spinal cord beginning at the base of the brain. There is enough material in that smal! bottle, if properly used, to make 10.000 microscopic slides.

Perhaps the observing citizen may have noticed a peculiar-appearing bronze badge, patterned after a four-leaf clover and fastened in the lapel of sundry coats. It is evidently a stranger upon the scene, and if the citizen's curiosity is aroused he will examine closely. He wiil see upon it in raised script letters the | words: “Anti-Treating League.” The words | have a signiticant sound, and the curious ones will naturally ask a question or two. He will ascertain that this anti-treating league is a | Society without any officers, by-laws, constita- | tion or meeting place. He will also ascertain that no meetings of auy kind are held, and that the members of the organization—if it can be dignified by the name—have no opportunities to confer with one another, unless it is when they meet upon the street. All these anti- treaters are not teetotalers by any means. They do not all scornfully refuse a drink. But they do in a determined manner refuse to re- turn any compliment of the kind that may be tendered to them. They give every treater to understand that, while they may drink with bim, he may never drink with them. It is not from any lofty motive that they pur- sue this somewhat odd course and adhere to this somewhat exceptionable principle. They are opposed to treating because it is an ex- pensive habit. “If I treat every one that treats me,” they reason. “I shall have to have & purse as long as a yard stick.” So they give Up the practice altogether and perhaps they are wise. There is no perhaps aboutit. Their | sdom is of the practical kind. The habit that Americans have of inviting a half-dozen friends to stand in front of « bar and pour down the liquid is one wholly without sense. And, besides, it is exceedingly burdensome upon the pocket book. The German and the Frenchman make their bibulous propensities take the form of an artistic indulgence. They mix friendship and wine together and some- times add a little intellectuality by way of a or. The wine or beer ig sipped between the intervals of cgnversation and not thrown down as if one's stomach were on fire and it Was necessary to put out the flames with the beer or wine or whisky. The American can profit by the example set for him by the Frenchman and the German. The anti-ireating league may bear good fruit, but the members of the society, such as it is, York. Vice President Morton, Secretary Tracy, Gen, Sherman and Postmaster Corse were on the list of the state’s guest ut the banquet last night, but the Secretary telegraphed from Bar Harbor that the U.S.S. Despatch would not reach Boston until morning. MAKYLAND POSTS, Post 51, of Philadelphia, on arriving, were taken to Paine Memorial Hall about 11 o'clock. The Maryland posts arrived after an unevent- ful trip of two days. They, with their friends, numbered six hundred persons. There also ar- rived Dusbane Post, No. 1, of Baltimore and full fife-and-drum corps and firing guard, 125 men; Wilson Post, . of the same city, 135 men, including the post band, thirty-two pieces, and a firing squad of sixteen men; A.

Six comrades have been sent to the city hospital suffering slightly from change of climate and water. From 12,000 to 15,000 veterans will be eared for in this camp alone. Daily religious services have been arranged for. ‘The arrivals of veterans are increasing every hour, Camp Murdock, with accommodations for 350 men, and the camp at the new armory, ac- commodations for 1,200 men, were also officially opened yesterday morning. Gen. Alger visited Salem, where the prin- cipal streets were decorated in his honor. Frederick Douglass, minister to Hayti, called on Gen, Alger at the Vendome. A Strange Claimant of an Estate. Some days ago Jobn H. Irwin, an inventor and scientist living in the suburbs of Philadel- phia, fell dead ina boat in the Adirondacks. He left an estate of $200,000 and it was sup- posed that he died intestate. But Lillian War- ren, of Springfield, Ill., his cousin, has pro- duced « will without witnesses which she offers for probate. Mr. Irwin had been twice married, his second wife dyimg a year or two ago, The alleged will speaks of Miss Warren as his afti- anced and gives her all his estate, real and pe sonal, only stipulating that she shall support his aged father and shall provide for a nephew aud two nieces of bis second wife until they reach their majority, and then give them $2,000 each. A caveat has been filed against the will being admitted to probate and the lawyers will come in as residuary legatees. cee — Charged With Two Murders.

The curtailment of production generaily went into effect yesterday morning. Nearly three- has eo excited Charleston, W.Va, people as the | quarters of the corporations, including the An- Barnard, attempted assassination of George H. Nutter, | nawan, ® prominent republican candidate. On Satur- day primary conventions were held throughout the county to select delegates to the county convention. The contest was between George H. Nutter and Wm. Diles for the nomination for county clerk. The convention at Charles- ton was a most disgraceful affair, there being five fights in the convention. Every other one in the county was of # similar nature, ten fights being the result of oue of them.* Th colored men became angry at the Charleston convention because they claimed that they were not receiving proper recognition. The contest was a most bitter one, and so close that each claims that he has enough delegates to nominate him. On top of all this the news that George Nut- ter was shot on the public street about 12 o’clock Sunday mght by an unknown person threw the entire community into a fever of excitement. Mr. Nutter was seen by the Sun correspondent yesterday; he was very weak and could speak but littie. He says he hearda Otho Wells, colored, one of the delegates who was for him, had weakened and after 11 o'clock went to his house to inquire as to his position. He saw Wells an‘ left about midnight. After going a short distance some one shot him with a revolver. He heard the report, but at first did not know that he was shot. He soon fell from loss of blood. A pas ing boy was sent for a physician, who took him home inacarriage. The physician said that the ball entered the breast just left of the heart and came out of the back. “He considered the wound dangerous and wanted to take him to Cincinnati to a hospital, but the family pre- ferred he should remain in Charleston, The police have been unable to secure any clue £0 far to the ussassin, or, at least, refuse to make it known if they have. The Diles men laugh at the occurrence. They attempted ut first to have it believed that he was not shot at all, but was playing for sym- athy. Later they admitted that he was shot, at say he was out drunk and either shot him- self or was shot by the husband of a woman whom they said he went to see, Mr. Nutter claims he can give an account of himself for every minute of the evening. He has no idea, though, who shot him, and does not even sus- pectany one. He had not heard the threats which are said to have been made against him, ‘The whole thing 1s a mystery, and the public iganxiously awaiting its solution, A large crowd had gathered at a hall with a view to holding an indignation meeting, but the jan- itor, who is one of Natter’s delegates, claimed the hull to have been leased by a lodge andran them out, —— 00 TUBES TO THE INFERNAL REGIONS Singular Delusion of an Insane Woman Physictan, Miss Eleanor M. Chapin, a physician who practiced medicine last in Hudson 1s at present at the Keith Home, a private asylum for the insane in New York. An application will be made to Judge Clement in the city court, Brooklyn, to have her permanently committed. Drs, Burns and Stone, the examining phy: cians of Kings county, certify that she is insane and subject to hallucinations that she is in fre- quent communication with the devil and there | are tubes leading from her room to the infernal regions and to tugboats, She asserts, they say, that she has received directly from the King of Heaven the knowledge that there is shortly to be a great war and that the universe will be de- stroyed. Mixs Chapin is about fifty years ol: She has been in the Poughkeepsio insane asy- lum, but was discharged cured. Recently manifestations of insanity began to reappear and she was forced to give up her practice. She says she is perfectly sane and able to take care of herself and asserts that she is being pursued and characterized as a lunatic because she ac- cused the physicians in the Poughkeepsie asy- lum of starving the patients there. cee Suspicious Burning of a Distillery. Craddock & Saunders have been manufact- uring whisky near Sandy Cross, in Rocking- bam county, N.C. Revenue Officer Wrey went tothe distillery Saturday to list the stock in the storage house for taxation.

Bakk, ‘1111 Penna eve tf} “ecee ts THE EVENING STAR is offered to the pnt lic, in good faith and with confidence, as THB BEST LOCAL ADVERTISING MEDIUM IN THE UNITED STATES. In point of fact, i may be truthfully said that it is without am equal in this respect any where in the world, These averments are borne out by the figures given below, which are compiled from the | Sworn weekly statements printed in the paper 00, | on each Monday in the year, and condensed from the sworn tabular statements showing the average daily circulation of the paper during the year 1889, published im Taz Sram on the 18th of January, 18%. Briefly stated, the points upon which the above claim is based are these: That— 1. The Star has three times the circu- lation of any other paper in Washing= ton! 2, The Star’s circulation in Washing: ton is double that of all the other dai Papers published im the city added to- gether!! 3. fhe Star has larger and fuller circulation in the city where printed, in proportion to reading and purchas ing population, than any ether news | PBper im the world!!! 4. The Star has the largest regular fad permanent home circulation ef any twe-cent afternoon paper im the United States !11t In support of these claims and to show the constantly increasing circulation of the papem, attention is invited to the figures following: DAILY CIRCULATION IN 1885-86-87-88-88, ISS5. ISS6. INS7, ISNS, 15S, -20,456 23,388 25,470 26,386 27,841 Jan.. 24,727 25,575 27,166 29,553 24,359 25,742 26,722 29,6 23,902 25,116 27,453 30,173 23,156 24,870 26,363 29,650 22,364 24.559 25,521 25,595 22,302 24,905 25,324 25,478 21,701 24,807 25,046 30,328 23,651 25,697 25.514 31,053 24,657 26,466 26,752 31,653 Av'ge.22,123 23,682 25,484 27,052 30,090 Increase ....... 1,559 1,803 1,598 3,008 Of this remarkable average aggregate of 30,090 copies circulated daily, no more than 1,102 copies are sent out of the city by mail, and 1,106 go to suburban places, by expres, railway trains, etc., leaving as a net circulation an the city proper the PHENOMENAL PRO- PORTION of 92% PER CENT, or AN AGGRE- GATE of 27,882 copies! Of this number, 21,142 were delivered daily by regular carriers at the homes of permanent sub- scribers. The remaining 6,740 copies represent the sales over the office counter, at the news stands, end by newsboys. But of this latter number a very large proportion is supplied regularly to per manent residents of the city living in lodgings, &c. (not householders), so that its whole circula tion may be literally said to be in the family circle. While its aggregate circulation there fore gives Tur Sram a distinctine and enviable Position in modern journalism, the fullness of its home circulation, the extent to which it is relied upon by members of the household, and particularly by the pur= at | chasing portion of the community, are the marked characteristics of the paper, to which no other daily journal now | published can furnish a parallel. This is no idle boast on the part of the paper. It is a well established fact, demonstrated to the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter- prising business men of Washington, who seek and know where to find THE LARGEST RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PAID OUT FOR ADVERTISING. This is proven by the | growth of Tus Srar’s advertising patronage. Nothing can more surely illustrate the esteem in which «ny article is held by the public than a constantly increasing demand for it—day by day, week by week, month by month, and year by year,—in the face of ad- verse claims and pretentiouscompetition. The figures following tell the story on this point: NUMBER OF NEW ADVERTISEMANTS ¢RINTED Ct 1885-86-87 88-30. Iss6. 1887. 3,613 347 4,669 3,478 3,393, 4,522 33St 3.170 4,517 isss, 4,076 3,924 4,603 4,956 S171 4,606 3.915 3.508, 4,906 3,412 in the way of tax sales, poll lists, election returns, etc., such as occasionally swell the business of political organs, being included in its patrom age. In conclusion, it is only necessary to say that, fm proportion to the extent and high character @f ite circulation, Tux Stan's advertising rates take rank with the very lowest in the country, and to add, finally, that every statement herein made can be abundantly verified THE CIB- CULATION OF THE PAPER 15 SWORN TO, ITS PRESS AND CIRCULATION BOOMS ARB OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, AND ITS BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED BY ANY ONE HAVING 4% INTEREST IN THEI EXAMINATION.
