Miller of the Supreme Court was stricken with paralysis and is now so seriously ill that his recovery is regarded as doubtful Justice Miller, who was apparently in the best of health, was out walking. About twenty-five minutes of $ he was on the west side of Scott Circle, within sight of his residence, 1415 Massachusetts avenue. Jobn Woodford, his servant, who was stand- ing im the doorway of the house, saw the Justice approaching. ‘Then he was startled at seeing him suddenly raise his hand to his heart, then reel and fall on the car tracks, which he was crossing at the time. Woodford hastened to the spot and found the justice apeechless and apparently in s stupor. He at once secured a coupe from the neighbor- ing hack stand, and,with assistance, placed the suffering man in it and had him borne to his house, Meantime a crowd had collected and there were many willing hands ready to help bear the form of the stricken man into the house, Dr. Cook, who resides in the neighborhood, and Dr. Lincoln, who fortunately was passing at the time, were soon in attendance at the bedside. They found that the whole left side of the Justice was paralyzed, The justice at 4 o'clock was speechless and in # most critical con- dition, Justice Miller was born in Richmond, Ky., April 5, 1816. In 1862 he was sppointed by President Lincoln associate justice of the U. 8 Supreme Court, Panrarment or Ixterner.—The prepayment of interest on government bonds by the Treas- ury Department yesterday aggregated €58,880, maktag s total thus far of $11,472,437, Repemprion or Boxps,—The Secretary of the Treasury has issued a circular stating that until further notice the bonds of the 41g per cent loan of 1891, acts of July 14, 1870, and Jan- ‘uary 20, 1871, will be redeemed with interest to August 31, 1891, on presentation at the Treas- ury Department, Too Mucn Raix yor tax Cortoy.—The Oc- tober statistical returns of the Depart- ment of Agriculture report a material decline in cotton prospects, a fall in general percent- age from 85.5 to 80. The iargest deterioration has been in Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas and Louisiana, the fertile and productive bot- tom lands of the Mississippi valley. The canse is too much rain. Examinations ror THe Coast Sunver.—An examination for applicants for positions in th const survey will be held atthe rooms of the civil service commission October 23, commeno- ing at9am. The subjects of the examination will be letter-writing, geography, arithmetic, algebra, geometry, descriptive geometry, plain trigonometry, shades and shadows and draw- ing. The last two subjects will be weighted as one-half of the whole examination, Residents of the District will not be admitted. Increastna Ta Batrenies.—The Navy De- partment has decided to increase the batteries of the three battle ships by giving each of them eight 8-inch guns instead of four, as at first contemplated. The increase will be made by mounting two guns in each turret corners of esereectare #o that no addi- tional turrets will have to be carried. This will make the batteries each consist of four 13:inch guns, eight 8-inch guns, four 6-inch or four 5-inch rapid fire guns, twenty 6-pounder rapid fire guns, six 1-pounder rapid fire guns and two Gatlings. ———— Orrosep ro Leasiva THE Pier.—Mr. J. 8 Dunham, representing the marine interests and the board of trade at Chicago, accompa- nied by ex-Senator Conger of Michigan, ap- eared before Assistant Secretary of War rant yesterday and presented u sumerously signed protest azainst the leasing of the Sout pier, Chicago, by the government.

The demand for Secretary Blaine in Ohio, and especially in Major McKinley's district, has been more than the Secretary could withstand. He will go away some time next week and will have with him as an oratorical companion Rep- resentative Dalzell of Pennsylvania. Mr. Blaine said to «Stan reporter the other day that he desired to go very much and would go if the business of the State Department would per- mit, A great deal of pressure has been brought to bear on the distinguished states- man, and it is stated this afternoon on reliable authority that he will talk for the benefit of McKinley and per! for one or two of the other republicans who are wesolon d to keep their heads above water in democra’ cally-gerrymandered districts.

Thompson, the president of the Metropolitan Bank, has returned from an extended European tour, He was absent about four months and during his travels he revisited North cape in Norway, which Is known as the land of the midnight sun. Here from June to the latter part of July the sum never sets, and the novelty of seeing the luminary of the day shining at midnight, end during the early morning hours, attracts a large number of tourists each year. Mr. Thompson says that this trip is becoming more popular thane journey through Switzerland. The climate is so delightful and invigorating and all the sur- roundingsareso Se thatthe traveler finds the trip a delightful one. Mr. Thompson spent some time in Holland and in Switzerland. While traveling through the Fluelen Pass on tho 24th of Auguet he had a singular experience, as the Ug was covered with snow to the depth of several feet. The snow was a good deal of a novelty to the at = that time of the year, ‘as they are reported, so Mr. Thompson says, to live on tourists in the summer and snow in the winter their winter supplies were laid in early inthe season. Mr. Thompson says that he bad @ very pleasant trip throughout and that he returns in improved health, He was in the bank this morning for the first time since bis return and when it became known on the street that he had returned he held quite a reception, Batives and —_s—__ CLEANING TIME ON TRE HILL Topsy-Turvy Appearance of Things ut the Capitol. Any housekeeper who waits until fall to clean house don’t know his business, but that’s the kind of a housekeeper Uncle Sam is. Right now, inthe month of October, he has got his coat off and is just making the dust fly at his big marble residence on Capitol Hill, The chamber of the House of Representatives looke as if lightning had struck it, During the sessions of Congress the House often takes on a disor- dered and disarranged appearance, but the out- look yow would make Messrs. Beckwith, Wilson, Kilgore et al. turn green with envy. The desks have been taken up and are piled together in ®sort of acrazy acrobatic pyrainid. Several energetic gentlemen of color are busily engaged in scrubbing them and ef- facing the big splashes. of ink and ‘gore from the polished surfaces. ‘The carpet has been removed and the floor— well, the floor does not look pretty. It is a dark fluor and it isavery uncomplaining-looking floor, but it is dirty. Along the wails of the house 1s a curious kind of an ornamental wain- scoting formed out of a large number of tin ecuspidors. Tuken all together the house has a very rakish, up-all-night expression. IN THE SENATE CHAMBER, The Senate chamber still retains « good deal of its dignity. AU the chairs have been re- moved, but the desks, recently scrubbed and polished, are back in their places. Altogether the Capitol just at present is not place any one should scek for mad excite- mentor wild revelry. It hasa very lonesome, family-away-for-the-summer appearance. A Few VISITORS. Some few visitors wander dejectedly through the deserted corridors, Only half of the eleva- tore are running, but they amply suftice and you usually have to gently but firmly awake the elevator man asa preliminary to going up or down. The Capitol police are there still, and they look just as handsome as ever, but there is nobody for them to watch, They walk around with a far. y look in their eyes in one big circle around the rotunda. PLAYING TAG AMONG THE STATUES. This morning when a Stan reporter visited the Capitol statuary hall was the only live place in the building, and here three small boys were playing tag, undaunted by the frowns from Fulos, Lincoin and the other distin- guished statues. The House restaurant wag closed, all but one room, and that room, from all ap) ces, wasn't making enous to pay for gas; but Tax Sran reporter hada gi time, anyway.
