Reading, cotton oi! and sugar, with American tobacco, monopolized the greater part of the business, but only in the Inst named was there movement of special importance. Sugar was | inclined to weakness and retired a large frac- tion, but cotton oil, stimulated by a hope of a dividend, rose 8{ per cent. American tobacco, after opening down 13¢ per cent at 108, retired to 104, and after a rally to 1064s again reacted to its lowest figure. The | rest of the list was entirely barren of interest, while displaying a firm temper after an irregu- lar opening. At 11 o'clock the market was fairly active and firm at only slight changes from opening figures. ‘The market developed 'a drooping tendency after 11 o'clock among railroad shares, But changes were of no importance except in Omaha, which, after selling to 57, lost 1 per cent. Distillers were strong and sold up to 3934 after touching 383 American tobacco again rallied to 10534 from 104, but transactions in the remainder of the market were still barren of feature, and at | noon the market was comparatively quiet and | steady to firm at insignificant changes from the opening.

IN CONGRESS TODAY. Not a Senator Present When the Chaplain Commenced. _ THE NICARAGUAN CANAL BILL UP. Senator Frye Makes a Speeech in Its Advocacy. BUSINESS IN THE HOUSE. The District Committee Occupies Most of the Time. SENATE. The chaplain had the unique experience this morning of beginning his prayer for a legis- lative body not a single member of which was present to get the benefit of it. Before the invocation for light and wisdom was con- cluded Mr. Faulkner (W. Va.) strayed into the chamber, and when the chaplain, retired, called attention to the absence of Senators. ‘The roll was called and in the course of half an hour there was enough Senators present to con- stitute a quorum. Mr. Teller gave notice that he would tomor- row ask the Senate to take up and dispose of the McGarraban bill. He thought it would not occupy much time. Mr. Cullom (IIL) introduced joint resola- tion to transfer to the state of Illinois (at the close of the Columbian exposition) the naval exhibit of the United States government asa naval armory for the use of the naval militia of Illinois, and asked to have it considered and Mr. Cockrell (Mo.) objected, saying that this was simply the entering wedge of Chicago to get overything that would be sent there for ex- hibitio: ‘The joint resolution was referred to the com- mittee on naval affairs, Mr. Carey (Wyo.) moved to proceed to the | consideration of the House bill to enable the | people of New Mexico to form a constitution | and state government.

Having no jurisdiction it is unnecessary to add that it could not and did not attempt to decide anything further, and the matter stands | today precisely where it did before the suit was instituted, the merest tyro‘in law knows that the mere dictum of a judge in case in which he has no jurisdiction as to what might | be were the case within his jurisdiction decides | nothing, is binding upon no one and is not nec- essarily good law. Indeed judges frequently change their views after u case is before them and they hear the arguments pro and con. In fact, the beliet 1s quite general that such is the case in the present instance, the judge before argument fully believing the case to be within his jurisdiction. ‘The facts are thata blunder was made by the “advisers” of the attorneys for complainant in bringing the suit ina court having no juris- diction. Smarting under the defent, the more humiliating because of the blunder and “the costs,” your correspondent would now like to make it appear that after all the decision is favorable to complainant, But it will not do. People are too intelligent to be led to believe that anything but a long bill of expense for at- tornevs’ fees, dc., has been gain the dis- missal of a suit for want of jurisdiction. Nor, indeed, can people be led to believe that the complainant, not a Methodist, but who came Yoluntarily to ive among them, and who has been honored with office by them, is doing what is right in involving the Camp Meeting Awsociation in law, to change a Methor dist practice as oid as Methodism iteelf, i.e, to allow exch man one vote and one ‘only in the government of _ its affairs. That there is an old Maryland statute permitting one vote in joint stock companies for share of stock has been well known for years, but no one believes, not even complainant himself, I suppose, that it waa ever intended to apply to a religious association. And not only Methodists, but Christian people in general, even in complain- ant's own denomination, have as little sympa- thy with him as would the people of Maryland were he to attempt to have enforced the old statute, still on the books unrepealed, authoriz- ing the boring of tongues, &c., for blasphemy and non-observance of the Sabbath, or as would the people of Connecticut were ‘he to méve there and attempt to enforce the blue la\ cause he found them unrepealed. ‘Taverexs, Three Broke Jall.

CABINET GOSSIP, ‘The Latest Rumors as to Mr. Cleveland’s 5 Intentions. | It is understood that Mr. Cleveland has changed his mind somewhat as to those places in the cabinet which still remain to be filled. He had at one time de- termined not to appoint a southern man to the Attorney Generalship. It is said now that he has reconsidered this determination and that there is a strong probability that Mr. son of Texas will be made Attorney General, though this has not yet been settled. It is Mr. Cleveland's desire that the Sec- taryship of Agriculture should go to the Pacific coast. e name of J, Sterling Morton is under consideration for ‘this place, but it is Mr. Cleveland's desire if he can find the right man to give the appoint- ment to the state of California. The under- standing is that Mr. Cleveland has decided that both the war and navy portfolios shall go north, and that the navy portfolio will go to Connecticut. The Navy Department, the De- partment of Justice and the 'Depart- ment of Agriculture are the only ones now open, Gresham having been se- lected as Secretary of State, C»rlislo for Secre- tary of Treasury, Hoke Smith for Secretary of Interior, Bissell for Postmaster General and Col. Lamont for Secretary of War. ——__-e— BISSELL FORK THE CABINET. He Has Decided to Accept the Office of Postmaster General. As Tux Stan has announced, Mr. Wilson 8. Bissell, Mr. Cleveland’s old law partner, has been chesen for the office of Postmaster Gen- eral in Mr. Cleveland's cabinet. The an- nouncement is now confirmed from Mr, Bissell’s home in Buffalo. A dispatch from Buffalo to the New York Times yesterday says: Wilson S. Bissell of MR. | this city has becn offered the portfolio of the Post Office Department in Cleveland’s cabinet. He has had the matter under consideration for several days, and has decided to accept the place. His letter of acceptance, if not already sent, will be mailed to Mr. Cleveland at Lake- wood without delay. Mr. Cleveland's selection of his former law partner for the important office of Postmaster General finds amle justi- fication in the high character, pronounced abil- ities and forceful nature of the man selected. Mr. Bissell not only stands high in the legal profession, but he is a sagacious and successful usiness man, with an executive capacity that is remarkable. ‘The fact that Mr. Biseell has been invited to enter Mr, Cleveland’s cabinet is known to very few persons here, and the news will be a gratifying surprise to the residents of Buffalo ‘general Bissell ia respected by every and ody, best. His ‘acceptance of the honor tendered him by President-clect Cleveland some surprise, for the reason that he has per- sistently declined to take public office of an: ness interests have engrossed his entire time and attention. In forming his determination to go into the cabinet Mr. Bissell undoubtedly complied with a most cordial and earnest re- tner and friend. His ac- large personal sacrifices, but his sense of public duty is akin to th: terized Mr. Clev the conseientiow the next administration. Buffalo may well feel proud of her contributions to that ailtnin- istration. energetic and efficient forces AL +e ae HERARDUS FLEET ADM @rdered to Remain in the West Indies Un- til an Appropriation for the Review. Rear Admiral Gherardi’s fleet—consisting of the Baltimore, San Francisco, Cherleston and Yorktown--arrived at Barbadoes yesterday, eighteen days from Montevideo, The vessels will remain at Barbadoes long enough to coal, which will take three or four days. ‘The Secretary of the Navy has sent a dis- patch to Admiral Ghorardi to keep his fleet in the vicinity of Barbadoes until other- wise ordered. There is great significance in this action but exactly what it means cannot now be told with positivenesa, ‘The impression in naval circles is, however, that it hus refer- ence altogether to the proposed naval revie It is said that Secretary Tracy is inclined to abandon the review unless Congress make the necessary provision for In the eve of such aconelusion it would of course be waste of time and money for the vessels named togoto the rendezvous at Hampton Roads, as the station to which they belong (the Pacific) is now 80 short of naval vessels and is so much in need of them just at this partioular time. According to this theory the vessels will remain in the West Indies until the purpose of Congress in the matter is known, If an appropriation the necessary expenses of the review the four vessels will continue their cruise to Hampton Roads, but if no more money is appropriated some of the fleet, if not all, will be ordered to return to the Pacific station, — Officials of the Navy Depart- | ment will not talk on the subject, but it is be- | lieved that the facts in the case are practically as above stated: In case of their return to the Pacific one of the vessels wiil undoubtedly be sent to Hawaii to relieve the Mohican as Admiral Skerritt’s agship. ‘This afternoon ordera were given to Admiral Gherardi to sail north with bis fleet on the 1Sth instant unless he gets orders to the contrary before that time. The Territorial Bin. There was a Dackset to the bill to admit the four territories. to statehood this morning, but | Mr. Carey, who has the matter in charge, says it is but a temporary defeat, Today during the morning hour Mr. Carey cailed up the bill for the purpose of getting the Senate and ordering it printed. . chairman of the committee on terri- who is opposed to the admission of any mare states at present, objected and Mr. Carey farced the ixsue by moving that the bill be taken up. Ona yea and nay vote his motion was de- feated by a somewhat decisive vote of 30 nays and 14 years, There appears to have been a fear on the part of some Senators that Mr. Carey sought — to lace the Nicaragua Dill, and this to some extent accountable for the vote.

It is asserted that there has been an agreement reached that Judge Jackson's successor on the circuit. bench will not be appointed by President Harrison. pats ee Clerks Back to Work. ‘The clerks in the sixth auditor's office, who have been furloughed for the past few days pending the removal of the heavy weight of the files from the upper floors, were back at their deske today. During their absence from the offite some twenty-five tons of files have been carried from the fourth floor to the first, and now that this great weight is removed’ it is believed that the building is safe. At least that is the written opinion of a representative of the supervising architect who today made an inspection of the building.

The Hawaiian negotiations have reached a Point so near completion that there is every | Feason to believe that the President will be able to submit the question to Congress inside of the next ten days, with a message giving his views on the subject. Hawaii has a full-fledged government in existence, and the disposition of the several branches’ thereof, with their almost infinite | ramifications into the life and business of the country, requires patience and research. The revenues of the country are derived from vari- ous sources, and how to divide them between the general government and the local govern- me*t is a difficult question. What differences were experienced on this point it is believed have been harmonized nd a practical conclusion of the conferences | is looked for early in the week. But the date | of the official adjournment will probably de- | pend upon the arrival of the representatives of the deposed Queen Liliuokalani, The condi tions, however, indicate an early conclusion of the matter by the State Department. In case annexation of the islands be recom- mended by the executive, the method of a | complishing it remains to be decided. The | question has been discussed by those most | interested and it is understood ‘that only two | modes of procedure are deemed feasible. One | is by treaty, which the Senate alone may ratify; | | the other is by ordinary act of Congress, re- | quiring joint action of Senate and House, It is believed that the former method will | be adopted.

Mr. Peffer, the Farmers’ Alliance Senator, thinks, however, that the ccmmittee did not Ko | far enough, but believes that nothing in the way of legislation could be accomplished at’ thin late in the session. For this reason he will not take any [steps this session. Mr. Peffer said to- day that he firmly believed that Congress had the power and the anthority to regu- lute the movertent of these armed [bodies of men from one state to another, and he proposed as soon as possible im the coming session to introduce a bill in- tended to cover this phase of the case. While his proposed measure may not be what is re- | quired, Mr. Petfer says that it is only by discussion that a bill of some sort would bring about that the proper remedy can be ascer- tained and applied. | BROOKLAND.

Several days ago a discovers was made in fear among the employes of the office. It was the discovery in a waste of the office of a «mall | glass testing tube, commonly used by physicians | d scientists in carrying specimens of disease | germs and other like articles, The tube was sealed, and in the bottom was an inch or so of gelatinous matter. There was no label | on the tube, nor anything else by which it could be ascertained from «hence it had come, its contents or to whom it had been mailed. Health Officer Hammett ceived a note frem Chief lerk Cooley of the department requesting him investigate the matter, it being generally supposed that the tube contained chol germs, supposed to have been mailed from some ‘infected European point to some one in this city. Dr. Hammett and his chief clerk, Mr. Tracy, and Dr. Osmun of the health office visited the department only to learn that the tube had Signs of Health, You don't have to look twice to detect them—bright eyes, bright color, bright smiles, bright in every ac- tion.

He believed | that there was no occasion for any alarm, even if it should be discovered that the sus- ted tubes really did_—scontain ihe “ceaded cholera germs, for the reason that the tube was securely sealed. Dr. Hammett said he had no doubt that cholera germs had often been so sent through the mails but said that there was no danger in doing so $0 long as the tubes remainad securely sealed.
