All the —news- wr agree that the riots of last night were Gilder thea thoes thet Bave occurred every nigbt since last Saturday, and express their belief that the firm hand of the government will restore order. Two hundred arrests of rioters were made yesterday and last night. A vioient attack upon M. Dupuy, the prime minister, was made in the chamber of deputies today by M. Paulin Mery and Tony Revillon. The attack bad its origin in the course the gov. ernment has pursued toward the rioters, a1 the three deputies were very bitter in their denunciation of the prime minister. M. Revillon charged that the government was alarming the provinces by withdrawing troops from ten de; euts and drafting them to Paris. ‘The closing of the labor exchange, he declared, was a wanton act. There was not | a sing'e workingman among the rioters. The workingmen were devoted to the republic. M.

He also — against the troops charging upon the . BL. Duniay, a socialist, demanded that the government ‘be impeached. Their tizade had no effect upon the sentiment of the chamber, for the house, by a vote of 343 to 134, udopted the order of the day expressing confidence in | the government. After the result of the vote had been an- nounced, M. Ernest Roche demanded that M. Dupuy be prosecuted on the.charge of foment- ing civil war.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. New Yorx, July 8.—Variations of % to 3¢ Point either way from last night's closing were recorded at the opening of today’s stuck mar- ket. During the first hour the market devel- oped an undertone of strength which resulted in an improvement of prices throughout the list. ‘The dullness that has characterized the week's trading still continues and transactions are Himited to a small cirele of professional opera- tora. ‘The stagnation in the stock market and the easier rate for money is turning the atten- tion of investors toward the bond market. ‘The estimated loss in bond values during the period of depression is said to be in neighborhood of #285,000,000. New England was strong again today on lim- ited buying and sold up to 23. St. Paul opened off $ point and closed at 663, lowest for the day. General Electric was the strongest of the industrial group, advancing 36 of & point to 71%. Burlington gained 1 int aud reacted to the opening price of 841 Northwest advanced from 102'; to 103. son was weak and notwithata sold down a full point to 213, also lost a poi.t to 103. The bank statement, which is always a prom- inent factor in Saturday's market. was very unsatisfactory. The enormous decresse in lega's is undoubtedly attributable to the July settlements of savings banks and trust companies. Many timid depositors havi withdrawn currency from their banks and locked it up in safe deporit boxes until this financial storm is over. The decrease in re- serve is due in a measure to the large increase in loans during the past week. ‘A summery of the bank statement follows: $6,383,750 1,284,600 4,874,100 709,200 100,900 While this statement presenta some features that were unexpected, the street generally looked for a poor showing, so that the market did not decline noticeably after it became known.

It has plainly passed the crucial point of the crisis and the process of recovery has set in, but it proceeds so gradually &s to make no conspicuous impression upon the value of securities. The special intervention ofsgroup of ‘infuential banks last week, by taking out a large amount of clearing bouse certificates, had the effect of breaking up the dangerous stringency in money, but the serious- ness of the circumstances which led to that saving effort causes yet to remain a certain de- gree of cautionary effect. The President's call for a special session of Congress was the only kind of treatment that could produce any relief. That effect it has certainly had: but there is a limit to what Mr. Cleveland's intervention can accomplish. While it is bighly desirable that Congress should pass without delay a bill repealing so much of the Sherman act as provides for the purchase of silver, yet, considering the uncer. tain composition of the Senat bility that the “more moni nsation or sub- stitute for the suspension of the present issues of silver money, it is not improbable that con- tentions may’ ariso from that sort of bargaining. It is mot to be supposed that a "stoppage of silver issues is the only amendment the curreney situationre- quires. We must have an elasticity in bur currency that will permit its volume to increase with the growing busiuess of the country; and if the new silver issues aro stopped without pro- vision being made for « natural additional sup- ply of money the change will be simply one from unsound inflation to the opposite extreme of violent contraction. It would be neither an unreasonable nor an unwholesome demand if, concurrently with the consideration of a re Dill, the sense of Congress should be consulted ax to the procurement of this needful elasticity through amendments of the laws relating to bank note circulation. . _ Baltimore Markets.

Difference Between Official and Unofficial Thermometers. |EVERYBO OVERCOME BY THE HEAT. The leaves of the trees have been kept pretty constantly rustling today, but if at/ lany time» you got a little out- side of the breeze the temperature was calculated to cause hair to crackle. That means that it was hot and a collar stood about as much show as a ropub- lican voter in Texas. Collare wore not the only affairs that showed up with « wilted appearance.

The preliminary report of Commander Con- verse, inspector of ordnance in charge of the Newport torpedo station, on the destruction of the gur cotton factory there, has been received by the chief of ordnance. The fire, j the report says, started at 140 p.m. in the northernly part of the building, the ewuse of the fire and the exact loca- m of ite origin being unknown, An alarm was immediately given and the fire force of enlisted men responded with alncrity, and the entire civil force of the station repaired to the scene as volunteers. About fifteen minutes after the beginning of the fire an explosion, with characteris-| tics of an explosion of the second | order, occurred in the northern end of the factory, blowing out the northeast sido of the building, killng three men who were at work in the’ locality, seriously wounding four and less seriously wounding three. Allefforts to extinguish the fire were una- vailing and in about two houre after its begin- ning the building was burned to the ground. A part of the gun cotton stored in the building was removed during the fire and a quantity partly consumed was recovered from the ruins ‘afterward.

WKSTERN TORNADOES. The Weather Bureau Has Something to Say on the Subject. The weathor bureau has issued a special bulle- tin on the question of tornadoes, which says: “Referring to the occurrence of the recent tornadoes in thé west attention is called to the fact that these destructive storms have been un- usually numerous and severe during the present season. During February tornadoes were reported from Mississippi and Louisiana; during March from Alabama, Georgia aud Mississippi, Louis- jana, Arkansas, Missouri, Indiana and Ken- tueky. During April from Ohio, Ilinois, New York, West Virginia, Iowa, Arkansas, Indian territory, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Ne braska, South Dakota, Texas! Ala bama, Louisiana, Indiana, and Tennessee, ‘During May trom North and South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, Arkansas, Indiana, Obto, South ' Dakota, Minnesota, Michigan, Missonri, Tennessee and Kentucky. During June from Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Indiana, Georgia and Texas and during July Georgia, have been lost, and probably a million and a half dollars’ ‘worth of property destroyed. The most, destructive of these storms, those entailing the greatest loss of lite and property, were those of March 8 in Mississippi, April’ 11 and 12 in Missouri, April 25 in Uklahoma and April 28 in Texas, May 23 in Michigan, May 25 in Missouri, June 21 in Kansas and that of July 6 in Iowa. This last | storm exceeds all previous tornadoes in the number of lives lost since that of March 27, 1800. at Louisville, Ky. “In the greater number of these cases the weather bureau has given warning twelve to in the twenty-four hours in advance and of the Iowa tornado that -severe local occur in’ Iowa : warnings were disseminated as widel ble throughout the state by telephone and tele- graph during the day and people within reach Of these agencies were cautioned to be on their guard. “‘Special attention has been given to the fore- casting of tornadoes this year by the wenther bureau and with marked success. It is not to be inferred from the foregoing statement that there is @ permanont change in the weather conditions in the direction of the increase of tornadoes, but this is an unusual year for their | Oocurrence, as was also the year 1883. As a matter of precaution and protection residents of tho states in the upper and central Mianis- sippi and Missouri valleys should provide places of safe resort,such as a portion of the cellars in their houses strongly protected.” es SILVER MEN IN GOOD SPIRITS, Senator Teller Says That They Are Not De- moralized, but Are Ready for Battle. Curcaco, July &—The silver men are not lemoralized, and we will be ready to meet Mr. Cleveland and bis friends on the battle ground in a special session,” suid Senator Henry Teller yesterday evening, and he spoke with the confi- dence of » man who seemed sure of his ground. Continuing, he eaid: “Despite the great hue and cry and the thun- derbolts that have been launched at the silver ople, we find ourselves in good shape and our mt unbroken. Of course I refer more par- ticularly to the Senate. We have had a good working majority for silver for some years, and in the changes that have taken place we still | have a majority. The silver law will stand unless it is replaced by another law that will maintain the double standard of this country. I know Mr. Cleveland ts making great efforts to bring about the repeal of the Sherman act, and is using the lever of patronage to move some of the silver men of his party. “He might as well go to the bankers in Wall street and get the money and attempt to buy them outright as to use the federal patronage, for there is no differ- ence between the two so far as the morality of the act is concerned.” When asked what he thought of the India suspension of free coinage, the Senator said with deliberation, as if weighing every word: “I believe that’ the suspension of the India coinage was brought about by collusion, and that it was deliberately planned in order to allow Mr. Cleveland to follow with the call for the special session oP Congress, and in the ap- parent collapse of silver secure the repeal of the Sherman bill without any compensating clause. But it failed. India has not aban- doned silver and never will. pala tas CHIEF JUSTICE FULLER'S TRIBUTE. His Eulogy of the Late Justice Blatchford. Curcaco, July 8.—Chief Justice Fuller was apprised of the death of Justice Blatchford by telegraph lust night’ He was deeply moved by the news, “Justice Blatchford has been in a serious con- dition for two weeke, but the news of his death comes no less a shock for that,” said the chief justice. “I shall go cast immediately. Justice Blatchford was a profound lawyer and judge. He wax a man of indefatigable industry and of exact method. He was an especially able judge of admiralty and patent law, but was an able all-round jurist.

It is peculiar in that it renders to its owner and tiller but one crop in four years, and that a crop of willow shoots. ‘The farmer, Antone Spath, came from Frank- fort, Germany, many years ago, and after erecting himvelf a comfortable stone house, which still stands in the midst of a picturesque clump of willows, at the end of the little val- ley, set about planting bis firet crop of willow shoots, Every year since he has gone on plant- ing row after row, until tho valley has become covered with them. Spath had lenrned the art of weaving willow ware in his boyhood days by the shores of the River Main, and as fast as bis little plantation grew he gathered the shoots, stripped them of their green outer covering. nd, after drying them, wove baskets of every conceivable form or #1ze. “It seoms rather peculiar work in this coun- try,” said the willow farmer. in speaking of his business, “but in all parta of Europe, especially in the German provinces, it is a very common thing to find willow plantations and willow weavers, for there willow ix used in many forms and fora greater number of purposes than I find it used in this country. In Germany and France willow is employed in making at least twonty different sorts of bird cages, while in America metal is used—braes or iron wire—and different woods. Among the best families in European countries cradles, woven by Germau workers, may be found constructed entirely of willow. ‘Then there are a hundred and one shapes of marketing basketa, baskets used by milliners and laundresses, baskets and panniers to be carried upon the bacas of man and beasts for holding fivb and fowl. “In preparing the willow for the weaver, wa plant the slips in long rows, parallel with a running stream of water, and cnt them when they have attnined four years of growth. ‘The cutting time is early in the spring, before the sap is done running, and after tying them in bundles they are placed in ponds of water to keep them in a green state until rendy for stripping. Stripping the willow is uccom- plished by drawing the switches through and betweon two heavy iron stanchions, whose edges peel the light green bark from the white heart, and then, after drying or curing them upon’ long racks, we have got the willow in a form for the weaver. ‘-It was many years after I planted this farm with willows before any one thought of imit ing my example, but now there are several other plantations iocated upon the Washington and Annapoiis roads, and though vou may find ite as busy rcenes there, you will scarcel, nda more picturesque piace thau this any- where, and that was one of tho reasous that led me to settle here sos Conservation of Conversation, From the Philadelphia Record.

The New York arrived at quarantine early this morning and reached her dock at the foot of Christopher street at about 9 a. m. The songers told how they celebrated the “Glorious Fourth” at sea and of the grand entertainment in honor of the marriage of the Duke of York and Princess May two days later. ‘The comumnttee of arrangements fur the In- dependence day celebration was com) of Col.

Both the first and second cabin passengers held entertainments on Thursday, July 6, in honor of the royal wedding. The eeds were for the benefit of the society for the relief of destitute children of seamen of Staten Is- land and Southampton. The celebration in the main caloon was an elaborate affair.

Cutcaco, July 8.—Unofticiaf information has been received from Germany to the effect that two, and perhaps more, members of - the royal family will arrive in Chicago carly in September. Ernst Gunther, better known as the Duke of Schies- wig-Holstein, is already making preparations for his visit. The duke is a brother of the Em- press of Germany. He will probably be nc- companied by Prince Heinrich, a brother of the emperor. The chief object of the trip, of course, is to see the exposition, but the royal visitors are especially interested in the German section. Herr Wermuth’s work for the ex- ition has been so highly praised yy the press of Germany that much curiosity is felt among ail classes to see what the fatherland is showing at the fair. This feeling extends to the roval family. It is not improbabie that Herr Wermuth, who will soon return to Germany, will come back to Chicago as an honorary escort to the roral visitors. At their meeting yesterday afternoon the for- eign commissioners received the apology of Prof. Pugman and Director General Davia for “the arrest of Dr. Emil Hass- ler, the delegate of Paraguay, by a Go- lumbian guard. The commissioners served notice on the officers that a suitable apology must be made for the arrestor they would follow the example of Dr. Hase- ler and veil their exhibita. The explana- tions made public yesterday were en- tirely satisfactory to the foreigners. A com- mittee of six was appointed to call on Director General Davis and make some arrangements by which foreign exhibitors could sell duplicates of their exhibits and also to learn whether the collection of customs duties on sales so made could not be simplified. One week from today the judges who are to make awards to exhibitors at the fair will begin their work. A few of tho foreign judges have alreedy arrived in Chicago and are quietly inspecting the exhibitw in @ifferent sections. Most of them are now aboardocean steamers bound to New York, Boston or San Franciseo and will reach Chicago Thursday or Friday of next week. The German judges sailed Inst Sunday and are due in Chicago Friday evening, Most of the German judges are experts of national reputation, many of them having erved as jadges at previous expositic Prof. Wittmann, the judge for horticulture, is said te be the best known expert in that line in Ger- many.

Caunon and other heavy implements of war, for some reason ‘that has never been satisfactorily explained. are in- cluded in the transportation department. It was for the purpose of making sure that Krapp received due credit for his display that Maj. Grosser was selected as « judge in that depart- ment. The English judges also sailed early this week and will ‘reach Chicago about next Thursday. They number forty. Belgium's quota bas already arrived.

Considerably secrecy has apparently been thrown round the operations of the inter-conti- nental railway survey authorized by Congress in accordance with the plan adopted by the pan-American conference in 1890. Though reports of a more or less detailed character have been incorporated in the esti- mates laid before Congress, there has been a hot fight over the appropriations for con- tinuing the work, which have only slip) in conference between | the two houses. It isnow stated. however, in | an unofficial way that the survey has been prac- tically completed. All the — survering | parties have. retarned to.

They are now engaged at the eadquarters of the commission in this city working up the data they have secured for the ‘publication of their final _ re- ports and the. of the line. This work will occupy several mouths. The line surveyed runs from the southern boundary of Mexico to the northern of Bo- livia and is 4,000 miles in length. It connects the railway system of North America with that of South America. It is said that feasible route has been found for the entire distance with no grade greater than 4 per cent, but no particulars are givon, tee It is further said that the engineer who was in charge of the survey thro Columbia reporta that for many miles ine runs through a mini jon #0 rich thet the material. dug out for "the, ‘cate of the road would contain enough gold and silver to pay for the construction of the road over that section. This possibly accounts for the reticence maintained as to the progress of the work. —__—_-e—____ THE PATENT OFFICE GAZETTE. The Contract Has Practically Been Given to = New Company. “TI have practically awarded the contract for printing the Patent Office Gazette,” said Mr. Seymour, the commissioner of patents, today to a Sram reporter, “to the Na- tional Lithographing Company of this city. This isanew concern, and has, I believe, the plant formerly owned by the Bell Company. They began their work by getting out the issue of the 4th inst, The issue was delayed, but today the entire issue has been delivered. The new company will get out the issue due next Tuesday.

If I find that they are not able todo the work then I will give tho contract to some contractor who is able to do it.” It is said that some of the difficulties the new company bas to contend with arise from the fact that the Norris-Peters Company, who have done this work for a number of years past, have continued their force of lit in their employ, although they haven't work for them all.

A ttle woman dressed in black was on trial in Judge Kimball's court today. Habitual drunkenness was the charge against ber, and her sister appeared against her. The broken-hearted sister was moved to tears when she appeared and saw the unfortunate woman in the toils. “She has been the torture and torment of my life for twenty years,” said the sister, “and if I were the only one to suffer Lwontd willingly bear it, but I am not ios tee imens abana se tema ne time in six months, Most of her time she is drunk and is continually hanging around bar rooms. At all hours of the night she returns home under the influence of liquor, and 1am able to stand it no longer.” “What does she do?” the court inquired. “Nothing,” the witness. “She had been living with me, and if she would do right I would only be too glad to continue support- ing her as long as I have work, but she will hang about bar rooms and the love of drink bas taken full of her.”” “I don't get drunk often,” was the ‘* response, “and nowI injend to be a good woman, “This is s sad case,” remarked the court. A sentence of thirty days in default of bonds was imposed. Susie Kobineon, a female from Jackson alley, was next called. She had been disorderly in the alley and she admitted her guilt. Not bav- $5 she went down for two weeks. ‘wo other colored women from the alley were tried for vagrancy. One of them wore white shoes and carried a baby in her arms, while the other wore red shoes and was childless, They were disc! It was Annie Smith's first offense, and so the judge would not send her down. ‘Annie is a Zoung colored woman who lives in the neigh- rhood of Willow Tree alley. The worst the officer could say of ber was that she was usu- ally half drank. ‘What supports vou?” the judge asked. “A triend,” was her response. “That's not a very respectable way to live,” said the judge, “but as it is your first offense T'll take your personal bonds.” Maggie McLane, a young woman from Rochester, admitted thet she was here for no good purpose and the court released her upon & promise to retnrn home. lary Simms, a fifteen-year-old colored girl, who has been spending her night« about tne flying horses, in addition to being guilty of bad conduct, was sent down for thirty pe Sercrmandniy Over a Bet.
