The Navy Department has sent the following letter of instructions to the commandant of the New York navy yard anent the Ericsson cere- monies: Sir: Upon the occasion of the embarkation of the remains of Capt. Ericsson it is the de- sre of the President to give solemn expression to the cordial and fraternal feeling that unites us with « kindred people, the parent source of wlarge body of our most valued citizens, of whom the late inventor, # Scandinavian by birth and an American by adoption, was the most illustrious example. In recognition of this feeling aud of the debt we owe to Sweden for the gift of Ericsson, whose genius rendered us the highest service in a moment of grave peril and anxiety, it is directed that, at this other moment, when give back his body to his na- tive country, the flag of Sweden shall be sa- luted by the squairou. The department there- fore issues the following instructions: The colors of the squadron will be at half- mast during the embarkation. Minute guns wiil be fred from the monitor Nantucket dur- ing the passage of the body from the shore to the Baltimore. As the Baltimore gets under Nay Gnd passes the vosscls of the squadron each vessel will mast head her colors, display the Swedish ensign and fire s national salute af twenty-one guns.

Assistant Secretaries Spaulding and Nettle- ton of the Treasury Department had a confer- ence with the President this afternoon with regard to the financiat situation, and it is not at all unlikely ‘hat action will be taken this sfternoon for the relief of the money market, SHOOTING STARS. ‘The difference between a dog and a tree is that you can tell to what family the tree be- longs, by its bark. Mr. Plummer, a civil engineer of Tacoma, says that there are trees in the woods of Wash- ington 650 feet high by actual measurement, Something even iarger than the trees appears to be found out there also, A correspondent suggests that Tolstoi’s work be called “Kreutzer Sonaughty.” ‘The third Vice President of the New York Central is not a cob-Webb any way. The woods are full of them—trees, The telephone company will never put a Hello round the head of Senator Morgan. Our Minister to France fairly bristles with enorgy in his defense of the American hog. A visiting sport was seeing the sights with a resident and in their wanderings they came up toward the Capitol from the north side, “What's the big white joint?” inquired the visitor pointing it out, “Oh, that’s where the Senators hang up,” replied the resident. “Move out will you? I t’onght youse fellers said base ball didn’t pay in Washin’ton,” and the visitor hurried along to get a better look at the “white joint” Is Senator Edmunds thinking about eternity that he should be displeased with the time told by the Senate clock? Plumb—smashing a corkscrew over the Senate bar: “Well, we have shut Jim out of the Senate anyhow.” Blair—curiously: “Jira who?” Plumb: “Jim Jams, of course.” Blair—with a burst of langhture; “Gadzooks, T had forgot the festive Jim.” IN THE WEREAFTER. Now Plumb and Blair have joined their hands To knock the bar so high, As not to leave the Senators A drop to “‘squinch ther dry.” In moral rectitude they stand, And pointing toward the sky, They laugh because the Senators Have nought to “squineh ther dry.” And Reed comes over from the House, With sash in graceful tie, And laughs with them, when Senators Have nought to “‘squinch ther dry.” Ah, well, some day these suffering ones, When safe at home on high, Will kuow that elsewhere, Blair and Plumb Have nought to “squinch ther dry.” P.S.—“Squinch ther dry,” vulgar for “quench their thirst.” Senator Morgan objects to the high-priced telephone and wants his Hel-low. ———_+e--_____ _ LIVELY ROW IN THE COUNTY. Pistols, Bullets, Bricks, a Meat Saw, a Knife and a Beer Glass as Weapons. There was a lively scrap at Frederick Koh- ler's store, corner of 4th and Wilson streets in the county, yesterday afternoon. Albert Cur- ter and Chas. Nelson. young colored men, called at the store and ordered drinks, Nelson emptied his glass, but before Carter had drank what had been set before him Kohler entered and told him not to drink any more, that he had enough. Before Carter could make a move in any direction Kohler grabbed his glass and emptied its contents. en a general row ensued. One of the colored men grabbed a meat saw while the other seized a knife. Then one of them got out in the street und hurled brick through the window. A beer gla: thrown by the proprietor took a piece off Nel- son's scalp. Kobler's fifteen-year-old son George then appeared upon the scene with a loaded revolver, aud two bullets from the weapon found their way into Carter's arm. Policeman Jobn J. Smith appeared upon the scene—atfter the trouble was over—and the re- sult of his work was the trial of several cases in the Police Court today. Kobler and the two colored men were charged with disorderly con- duct and the boy was charged with the shoot- ing. Lawyer Campbeil Carrington appeared for the Kohler family and Lawyer Oscar Nauck represented the negroes, Nelson was fined #5 and Carter and Kohler were acquitted. The case of young Kohler for the shooting was continued. Validity of Another Law Questioned. Lawyer Cahill appeared in the Police Court this morning as counsel for George Killeen, jr., who was charged with disorderly conduct. Po- liceman Kimmel of the sixth precinct was the prosecuting witness. The officer wanted to charge the defendant with refusing to assist a police officer, but for some reason the prose- euting officer would not file such a charge. In discussing the matter of refusing to assist the officer Mr. Cahill said that there was no such law iu force in the District, That law was enacted before the organization of the metropolitan police force and although it has been enforced during recent years he was of the opinion that the law had been repealed, The court intimated that such was the court's opinion of the law, but no definite opinion was given. The court considered the facts in dis- a of the disorderly conduct case and the ine was made $10. ———_— A Low-Down Establishment, From the Pittsburg Dispatch. A tall man, somewhat rumpled, but looking as if he had a lot of native pride and dignity, stepped into a down-town saloon, and in a stately way said to the bar tender: ‘A glass of imported beer, sir.” ‘o imported,” said the bar tender, “Bless me!” exclaimed the tall man. “No imported beer!” “Nothing but the every-day United States beer,” said the bar tender. The tall man turned scornfully away and walked toward the door, He stopped before he reached it. it cool?” said he to the saloon man. ‘See them flies limpin’ round on the bar?” said the saloon man. The tall stranger said he did. “Feet frosted from hoverin’ over that beer,” said the saloon man. “And is it served in schooners?” asked the tall man. “Reg'lar double decker reply of the beer drawer. ‘he tall man returned to the counter and told the bar tender he guessed he'd take a glass, but he was afraid it would go against him. ‘The beer was drawn out and the man walked to the end of the bar where the lunch was. “Stars alive!” he exclaimed. “Crackers and red herring! Is that all you serve for junch?” “Tuesdays,” replied the bar tender. “Come sround Wednesdays for terrapin and boiled salmon.” ‘The dignified man looked disgusted, but he took two red herring and « handful of cri era. Ho ordered his beer carried to a table and was the assuring “Expectin’ our marble-top rosewoods in every minute, and our plush sofies ought to have been in last night,” said the bar tender. “We sent 'em out to get ‘em nickel plated.” ‘Che tall man ate his herring and crackers and drank his beer, and patronizingly told the clerk that he might draw him another glass, He drank and then said: am introducing « tent memorandum book, sir, for use in your business. You'll find it much more convenient than the slate. “What!” said the stranger, rising with great dignity. You don’t keep a slate?

And the tall man went out of the door so quick that the bungstarter the bar tender threw after him wouldn’t have caught him if it had been fired out of a gun, eee Found Embaimed in a Salt Mine. From Public Opinion. A strange and, from a scientific point of view, an interesting discovery has been made at Her- mannstadt, in Hungary. The bodies of several Honveds, proved to have fought in 1348, were found in « disused salt mine. How the soldiers * WASHINGTO THE LODGE BILL CONTEST. The Quay Resolution in the Senate Goes Over Till Tomorrow. SENATORS FRIEYDLY TO THE ELECTION BILL WANT TO TALK—HAVE THEY ABANDONED THE IDEA OF PASSING IT?—18 IT A QUESTION OF SACRIFICING EITHER THE LODGE BILL OR THE M’KINLEY BILL? In order to give Mr. Hoar and some other Senators time to complete the preparation of their speeches on the subject, Mr. Quay con- sented to his resolution going over until to- morrow. The assumption is that Mr. Hoar will offer his amondment to the resolution and get off the speech he would have made on the fed- eral election bill. Other advocates of this measure who are primed with speeches will deliver them on this occasion. Some whose anxiety has prevented them from accepting the defeat of the election bill, as assured by the course of events during the past three weeks, regard the fact of the advocates of the measure wanting to speak at length on the anbject at this time as an hope of indication that they have given Bp all be they ac- Passing the bill this soasion and cept this as their iast chance to have their say. It is understood that the discussion of the reso- lution will be one-sided, aa its friends on the desire to consume any consideration than is abso- lutely necessary, and the democrats prefer to say nothing at all. The votes to adopt the resolution are all counted im a canvass, and Mr. Quay regards talk as a waste of time unless it shall become necessary to reply to some point made on the other side. A sentiment in favor of the proposition to postpone the election bill has begun to develop among republicans in the House, and an effort 1s being made certain ‘directions to counteract the criticism of Mr. Quay, which his resolution at first provoked. The advo- cates of postponement have begun to whisper about in the House that some such course as that of Mr. Quay was necessary to secure the assage of the tariff bill before Novem- er. They are urging that the inter- ests of the party and of the country demand the prompt passage of the McKinley bill above all things else. Iwo days ago there was no voice given in the House to this sentiment. TROUBLE AMONG THE MARINES. The Court of Inquiry at Norfolk—There may be a Court-Martial, Lieut. Geo. R, Benson, marine corps, arrived in the city this morning and handed to the judge advocate genefal of the navy tho record of the court of inquiry which recently investi- gated the troubles among tho marine office! stationed at the Norfolk navy yard. Capt. Wm. R. Brown, marine corps, was charged by Maj. MeLane Tilton, who commands the marine forces at the yard, with being absent from duty without leave, and there fave been sev- eral complications resulting from the accusa- tion. It is possible that the Secretary may order @ court-martial in the case, SECRETARY RUSK’S SILK HAT. The Transformation Produced by a Little Silk Cap. From the Pittsburg Dispatch’s Washington Letter. “Icame east to get ort rest at the sea- shore,” said ‘Uncle Jerry” Rusk the other day, “and when I landed at Nantasket Beach I found that only myself and the coachman were wea: ing high hats. These Bostonese are a curious sort of people. you know. ‘They want to look at your genealogical tree and analyze your blood to see if it is blue before they have much to do with you. They are especially afraid of anything” that is not from New Eng- land, or that is at all out of the way, and I wandered around among them for three days before any of them spoke to me. I had never been treated so before and I couldn't under- stand it, and at last said to myself that it must be my hat. IT at once went to my room and put on a little traveling cap, that made me iook like the deuce, but which was not ualike some of the hats of the Bostonese. I then went down and posed on the hotel piazza. and I had not been sitting there five minutes before a man camo up and spoke to me. He was a one-legged man, and he hada Grand Army button on the lapel of his coat. He noticed my button, and from that asked me where I was from. I told him that I was from Wisconsin, “I know an elegant fel- low from Wisconsin. He is one of the bright- est and brainiest men I know,” ‘You do, and who is he?” said I, replied the one-legged “He is governor of the state.” id I, coolly, as I looked the one- legged man in the eye. “I know him better than you do, and Ican tell you you are mi taken in your opinion of him, He's a whelp. “What!” suid the man, and he jumped from his seat and pranced around on his one leg as if he were going to get mad. He turned to go away and I called him back again and m him sit down. As he took his chair I sai It seems to me that I have met you before. Have you ever been in Washington?” Yes,” was the reply. “Have you ever been before the invalid pen- sions committee of the House?” “Yes,” be again replied; “and were you there’ “Yes,” said I; “I was the chairman of that committee.” “Wh: id the old man, “you're Old Rusk himself,” and with that we again shook. ‘The old man had not seen me for years and my hair and beard had grown white. Under that little traveling cap he did not know me, and I don’t suppose he would have recognized me under the tile. I got a new hat a day or go later, and T found things as pleasant as I could wish.” HE WEARS THE SCAR TODAY ADeputy Marshal and a Gambier Raised Revolvers Together. From the New York Tribun ‘Do you eee that tail man standing thero’ asked the colonel. “Notice how he brash his hair forward on the sides, as some English- men do. One of those locks hides a scar which bears eloquent testimony as to a narrow escape from death, “Thirty years ago he wasa deputy marshal in Nevala, He started out one day to arrest a notoricus gambler who had killed a man over agame of cards. The gambler knew that the marshal was seeking him, but with a cool effrontery walked about the streets ull day. Wil-that is the deputy marshal—heard that the man he wanted was in a I-known bar room. He set out for the place and carelessly walked boldly into the room. He had not crossed the threshold before he found himself looking into the barre] of a six-shooter. “Come, Hardy,’ he said coolly, ‘this won't do. I've come to get you and I want you.’ ** ‘See here, John,’ said the gambler, ‘I don’t want to kill you, but I won't let any man arrest me. Go away and let me alone.” ‘No, I want you,’ said the marshal quietly. ‘Put down the six-shooter and come with me.’ ‘Til see you shot firs I can't help that,’ ‘Imust have yoa.

Facts of Interest About the Public Schools of the District. THE STEADY INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF PUPILS—NEW SCHOOL HOUSES—TWO BRANCH HIGH SCHOOLS AND A BUSINESS SCHOOL TO BE STARTED—INCREASED PAY FOR TEACHERS, ‘The public schools ‘of the District will not be opened this year until the 22d of September. This date is only about two days later than that of last year, The children and teachers are still enjoying their vacation, and although the middle of August is past there will stil) be some wecks before the school exercises will be resumed. The usual work in repairing and refitting the school buildings that is done during the long vacation isin progress, Nonew school buildings will be occupied for the first time when the presentschool year opens. During the past year, however, abotit fourteen eight- room buildings were completed and as rapidly asthey were finished they were occupied by the schools. This large increase in the num- ber of buildings for the schools, however, is not yet sufficient to meet the increasing de- mand, THE NEW APPROPRIATION BILL authorizes the erection of four eight-room buildings during the present year, which will bo located in the first, third, seventh and effith divisions, An eight-room building will also be built in Anacostia. The erection of a new high school building for the seventh and eighth divisions has also been authorized. The sites for the vo paket buildings have not yet been sclecte: The District Commis- sioners decide the question of the location of the school buildings and the school trustees submit to them reeommendations designating sites which, in their opinion, are suitable. ‘The new appropriation bill granted to the Commissioners the power of condemning land for the location of school buildings, and in the event that they are unable to purchase the necessary ground in the location that they de- sire they can resort to condemnation measures. THE STEADY INCREASE in the number of scholars attending the pub- lie schools is shown not only by the increase in the total attendance, butalso in the addition to the number of school buildings. During the ast five years thirty-two new school buildings ave been erected = in the Dis- trict and yet the accommodations are not yet cqual to the demand. While there will be no new school buildings to be occupied at the beginning of the coming school year, yet the number of new schools is estimated as follows: Seven in the first division, five in the third, two in the fourth, one in the fifth, two in the sixth and eight or nine in the seventh and eighth divisions, Last year there were about 87,000 pupils in attendance at the public schools of the District, an increase of about 2,000 as compared with the previous year. It ix esti- mated that the same ratio of increase will be maintained for the coming year. The addi- tions made to the number of the schools, with- out avy increase in the number of school rooms, is explained by the system of having half-day schools, so that one school room will do duty for two. THE TEACHERS, Owing tothe late date when the appropria- tion bill became a law the school board has not as yet made the appointments of teachers for the ensuing year. At the meeting which will beheld on the first Tuesday in September the lists will be sppeired There will be but few changes made in the personnel of the present corps of _ teachers. All those holding teachers’ positions last year will be reappointed, with the exception of those who have voluntarily resigned. Owing, however, to the change made in the averuge sulary to be be paid there will be some changes made in that particular. The new bill appropriates for teachers’ sularies » total of $544,575 and has f'xed the average salary to be paid not to exceed $685. This average salary is #5 higher than that of last vear. The num- ber of teachers provided for is 795, an increase as compared with last year of fifty teachers, Of this number the colored schools will have fourteen. THE MOST NOTABLE CHANGE that will be made in the schools will be the re- sult of the plan adopted for relieving the press- ure inthe High Schoois. It is proposed to establish a branch High School inthe Curtis building in Georgetown, one inthe Peabody building on Capitol Hill and a business school in the uilding on 12th street near K. ‘This latter school will take the place of the business course in the high school and will be a one year’s course, The second-year pupils at present in this course in the High School will be allowed to graduate and then the business course will be Acopped from the High School. ‘The branch schools will be conducted by teach- ers taken from the present corps of teachers and there will be some new appointmente, The estimate made of the number of teachers re- quired for the High School snd its branches is as follows: High School, 37 teachers; Peabody School, 6 teachors; Curtis School, 3 teachers; Business School, 6 teachera. PRECEDENT FOR MR. REED. Gen. Banks Said He Made Similar Rul- ings When He Was Speaker in 1856. Gen. N. P, Banks has been at home the past week looking aftcr a renomination and re- election to Congress, He said yesterday con- cerning affairs in Congress: ‘Speaker Reed has made rulings that have caused much dis- enssion, and they were perfectly proper aud correct, I took a similar position in 1856 when I was Speaker of that body. We hada very small majority of the House at that ses- sion, A Mr. Orr, who afterward became Speaker, raised a point in regard to a quorum, and I made a ruling like unto that of Speaker Reed. Without doubt Mr. Reed is looked upon asa very strong und powerful man and one of the leaders whom the party will select for the presidential nomination, If such a nomination should fall upon him he would be elected.” “How about the federal elections bill in the Senate, general; do you think the Senate will puss it?” “Ido, most positively. this session it will be at the short one. At any rate, under the present administration, colored citizens can rest assured that it will become a law.” If it is not done at ‘an you account for the action of Senator Quay in’presenting his resolution looking to its postponement?” “I think Senator Quay wanted to have the tariff bill, which he considers to be the most pressing public measure, acted upon first. 1 am of opinion that Senator Quay wishes such an election bill as do the rest of the members of the party who are aware that there are frauds in the south. No, I attach no importance whatever to the talk that some kind of a trade has been entered into between Senators Quay and Gorman,” es Marcus Morton Resigns. There was great surprise among the lawyers in Boston yesterday over the news that Marcus Morton, chief justice of the supreme court, had resigned. The rosignation is to take effect on the 27th of this month. The chief justice was born in 1819, He was graduated from Brown University and the Harvard Law School and in 1841 was admitted to the bar. He presided over the Suffolk county court, the Massachusetts superior court during the years 1858-'69 and was then appointed associate justice of the su- preme court, and in 1832, when Horace Gray was appointed by President Arthur to the United States Supreme Bench, Morton was pro- moted to the supreme justiceship.
