Talks of the Coming Encampment. ‘The most important visitor at the headquar- tore of the citizens’ Grand Army encampment | Committee today was Gen. John Palmer, the commander-in-chief of the Graud Army. He reached the city this morning from Albany and intends to remain a couple of days. He was accompanied by R. H. McCormick, the major, and P. J. O'Connor, the quartermaster, of the G. A. R. battalion which has been formed in Albany and will act as especial escort to the commander-in-chief when he starte for this city to attend the encampment. The ‘ty will come in a specis fain reaching here on August 16; Gen. Fulmer and his escort will be quartered at the Ebbitt. ‘The representatives of the battalion came in at this time to comy lete their arrangements. Gen, Palmer has not been here sinoe his re- turn from his latest official trip covering some 40,000 miles. He told @ Stam reporter this morning that he heard everywhere expressions from the old soldiers that convinced him this encampment would be more largely attended | than any previous one. He said that | the veterans were anxious to come to Washing- ton and he believed that the parade up the avenue would be the greatest thathas ever been seen here, He spoke of tho progress of the arrangements for the ition, and entertainment of the old soldiers | nd thought that all the plans showed horoughness which argued well for the suc- ess of the encampment. He said that Wash- ngton had an experience in handling large crowds which very few cities possessed. HIS VIEWS ABOUT THE GREAT PARADE. Gen. Palmer had a long talk with Chairman Edaon, and before he leaves the city he intends to call on the President. He and Mr. Edson discussed ‘in a general way what was being done by the citizens’ committee. In fact the object of his visit here at this time was to learn what is being done by the executive com- mittee. Gen. Palmer taken great interest in the parade and he has some ideas about the plas of parade which he will hare an oppor- tunity talk over with the committee on arnde. He is of the opinion that the parade might be a double one, as, for example, have two lines or two bodies marching down the avenue abreast but separated by a short space. Gen. Palmer says that he will feel greatly re- lieved when bis term expires in September and his successor elected. Few he thinks have | | any idea of the amount of work which the place entails, Having a supervision over an organi- zation’ that containg nearly half a million of men, he suys, is no trifling matter. In order to perforin the dutics he has been able to give but little attention to his private business. He says that he has bad one or two troublesome questions to pass upon uring th t year, the most important one being hot “of the color line which was drawn in Lonisna. His decision was in favor of the colored posts and he says that the matter is gradually shaping up all right. He spoke of his recent tour through the south and said that he bad o cordial reception andenjoyed himself immensely. She is Improving Physically, but Is ‘Anxious to Have the President With Her. At the White House it is said that the desire of the President to leave for Loon Jake as soon as possible does not moan that any alarming news has been received relative to Mrs. Harri- son's condition. Her physical condition is im- proving right along and to a gratifying degree. ‘She is still nervous and weak, however, and is anxious to have the President with her. He is equally desirous of going, and does not foel like remaining in Washington any 1 than ix necessary. If Congress adjourns this afternoon he will leave immediately. ee THE AMMEN RAM.

WATSON’S CHARGES. The Committee Keport Them Absolutely False and Meriting Condemnation. ‘The committee appointed to investigate the charges of drunkennevs make against the House by Mr. Watson submitted their report today, which was agreed toby the republicans and democrats of the committee. ‘The report states that the charges are absolutely false and merit the condemnation of the House. No action has been taken on the report. — = THE GARBAGE INVESTIGATION. No Report to Be Made This Session—More ‘Testimony Probable. “There will be no report on the garbage in- vestigation resolution,” said Senator Hans- brough to a .8ran reporter this afternoon. “It bas been impossible to sift out the precise . situation from the mass of testi- monv taken by the committee, but the recess will afford me an opportunity to go over the entire matter with great care, and when we meet in December next everything will be in satisfactory shape. It is not improbable that before the report is concluded we shall hear a fow witnesses as to the garbage condi- tions provalent during the summer.

WILL PROBAB! It le Likely That Congreas Will Ficish Up Ite Business ond Depart. gress will close today. It is not expected that there wil be any material delay in the action meeting of the House it was: sidered that the world’s fair bill would be adopted by the House, probably before 2 o'clock, and that it would be immediately acted upon favorably by the Senate. With this pros- pect in view it was conceded that there would be Dut little trouble in adjusting the minor diffi- culties in the sundry ofvil bill and thet it would the President. who had informed the Speaker come to the Capitol to sign the bills, “The ex- ctation therefore is that the House may sd- four at 6 o'clock or, possibly, the session might end will come tuday. There is a possibility, of course, that there may be some trouble in the Senate on account of the lack of a quorum there, but in view of the very general desire for an adjournment at once and on considera- tion of the fact that the President may be called away at any time on account of the ill- ness of his wife, the expectation is that there will be no obstruction of any sortineither house. THE PRESIDENTS WISHER. ‘The President while not making the illness of Mrs, Harrison a plea for Congress toadjournand not desiring to have his personal convenience considered in the matter at all. has informed members of both Houses that there is some danger of his being called away from Washing- | ton, in which event it would be a matter of compulsion and not desire on his part to‘leave before Congreer adjourns should there be much delay. Since there is really nothing to necessi- tate a prolongation of the sestion the worst of ineonvenience on account of the President's shesnes can be avoided by a speedy adjourn- ment. ‘The world’s fair people felt entirely confident this morning because of the fact that the hour fora vote on their bill fell on Friday. They called attention to the fact that every step in the progress of this matter “has been made on Friday. The bill authorizing the exposition originally on Friday through the House: by the President on Friday; the commission ‘was announced by the President on Friday; the exposition will be opened on Friday; it is be- lieved that Columbus landed on Friday, and this leads them to believe that Friday is ‘their lucky day and that their present troubles with ‘Congress will be settled today. —___-.-____ RECORD OF THE CLERKS.

For the past week he has displayed an cager- ness to be at work that pleased the physicians and showed his great strength of purpose, Dr. Litchfield reluctantly gave bis cousent to the chairman resuming his duties this morning and dnsicted on coming along to the office. Mr. Frick would not agree to thisand came unattended. Mr. Frick has yet made no expression of desire to vec his assuilant, Berg- man, punished. Of course he has such « wish, but has refrained from vindictive utterances, Itis probable the chairman will return home at 2o'clock and there remain until tomorrow. Mr. Frick was confined in the house twenty days, having beea wounded three weeks ago to- morrow. DUQUESNE THE PLACE OF INTEREST XOW. The attempt yesterday of the Amalgamated Association members to prevent the old men not organized with them from returning to work in the Duquesne mill has, for the time, drawn public attention away from the other 8 les between the strikers and the Carnegie Steel Company. Duquesne has been often the battle ground and the victories for labor and capital heretofore have been even. In this instance the company has taken active measures promptly. Late last night Constable Grifiths, accompanied by James E. Morrison, who was beaten badly in the riot yesterday, came to Pittsburg, on the advice of Superintendent Morrison, and made informations for riot twelve of the participants, who” are mostly Duquesne men, but some of them reside in Homestead. A force of constables will serve these warrants today and they expect seriotis trouble and have gone to meet it. William Weihe, president of the Association, who has kept @ close watch on Homestead events, told » press representative this morning that it might be posm- the Senate adopted it on Friday; it was signed | bie the company hed 1,200 men in the Homertead — mi than one hundred of them bad any skill, and serious accidents were a daily occurrence. “Yesterday,” he said, “when the fur- naces in ‘the open ‘hearth department hed been tapped and the steel ran into the ladle, the men trying to move the ladle to the casting pit upset it, spilling twenty-five ; ca Owing to this the open hearth department is shut down and the metal is lost.” Mr. Weihe said his association was tons of molten me! receiving large contributions of money from all parts of the country. ‘The Carnegie officials tell a different story.
