SENATOR PADDOCK’S PICTURE. ‘The picture was of a youngster that had evidently been in the land of the living for at least seven or eight months, although the letter which Papa Duvall sent with it asserted that this specimen of his offspring was but three wecks old. Beneath the photograph Senator Paddock pasted a slip of paper on which he had written: “Photograph of Baby Duvall, who died early” from too much chris- tening. The following are the bap- tismal names which crushed out his young life.” ‘Then followed 1 lint of the dis- tinguished Senators who have contributed to the necessities of broken-legged William Duvall. THE VICE PRESIDENT BLUSHED. When Vice President Morton was shown the counterfeit prerentation of his godeon he blushed and laughed aloud. Every Senator in the chamber was more or less interested in the pieture and they cracked johes innumerable about the little one who was so overwhelmingly named. A DOUBLE DOSE. FOR SENATOR M' MILLAN. Papa Duvall tried it twice on Senator Me- Millan.

The meakuro wes, however, amended in two important particulars at this morning's meeting. The first was the exclusion of section 4 dill. This section provides that when the national bank circulation falls below €180,- 000,000 the deficiency shall be supplied by the issue of treasury notes: on silver bullion purchases if the silver can be purchased or if not by the direct insue of notes. The second amendment was the insertion in place of the section stricken out of the following section: That the Secretary of the Treasury is hereby authorized to issue in asum or sum# not exceeding in the aggregate $200,- 000,000 coupon and registered bonds of the United States in such form as he may prescribe and of denominations cf #50 or some multiple of that sum, redecmable in lawful money ut the pleasure ‘of the United States on and after July 1, 1900, and bearing interest semi-annually intended for dixplay in a cabinet or isan object of science and is not for sale. aoa Distnict Parexts.—Patenta wer> today is- sued to residents of the District as follows: urles E.

He failed to answer and some time was lost in trying to find him. Mr. Wilson said he had no other witness that could be examined very well before McKenney, gswhea the defense were through with him they would practically have finished up with their testimony. Mr. McKenney then entered the room and was plated on the stand. He testified that he was ticket agent and general officer aboard the Jane Moseley and was for- merly a special police officer in this city. Some time in June, 1889, about ix or eight days be- fore the Moweley began running, which was on the 17th of June, he saw Adler and Ward in the Marble Saloon together. They matched for a bottle of wine and Ward won. They then matched fora $5 bill and Ward won again. Adler asked for satisfaction, but Ward paid no attention to him and left the saloon. Croas-ex- amined, he thought that the 17th of June was a yy, but was not sure about it. MR, NEUMEYER RECALLED. Mr. Neumeyer, the proprietor of the Marble Saloon, was next recalled to testify about what Ward said at the time of his arrest. He said that he was standing close by when the officer took Ward into enstody, but he heard no suc! remarks as Ward is raid to have made. He did not hear Ward say, “I done the s— of yy or any other remark of that nature. Mr. Neu- meyer also testified to the occurrence between Adler and Ward that was told of by McKenney. When cross-examined by Mr. Clagett he ad- mitted that the police came into the saloon so uickly after the shooting that it seemed as ough they had received their cue in a the- ater. He was with them and also went over to ree Adler lying on the floor, but he was confident that Ward did not make any remarks about the shooting. Mr. Ginnity was also resent at the time Ward and Adler matched for wine and se it was about six or seven days prior to the shooting. He was within ten feet of the officers when they arrested Ward, but he denied hearing any remarks made by Ward with reference to the occurrence. ,_ THE DEFENSE RESTS ITS CASE. Mr. Wilson then announced that the defense would rest its case with the reservation as to the privilege of introducing the absent witness Drew's deposition. DB. on CALLED, BUT DID NOT RESPOND.

Mr. Neumyer testified for the defense that the pillar had been washed once a week from the time of the shooting down to the time of the microscopic examination made by Dr. Schaeffer. ‘MR.
