The Senate Emblem Was Flying at Half-Mast Today. Quite an excitement was caused this worning on Capitol Hill by the appearance of the Senate's flag at half-mast. It is a melancholy fact that several times this winter death has stalked through the great white building, and has caused the nation’s | colors to droop, so the good people of the Hill are somewhat accustomed to the dole- ful signal. This morning, just about 10 o'clock, the stars and stripes were run up to the mid-point and there they rested. In a few minutes the telephone bell in the ress gallery of the Senate was ringi Restousty. and an anxious voice inquired the name of the departed. The young man whose duty it is to furnish information to the world from the press gallery replied that he did not know that any one had died, but he would ask. Upon some one’s suggestion, he hunted up the gentleman who is charged with the duty of signaling the sessions of the Sen- ate by means of the tri-colored banner, who blushingly acknowledged that so far as he knew the world was as healthy as ever. When pressed for an explanation, he said: “Well, I don’t mind sayin’ I jes’ run her up a little way a bit before 10 o'clock to air her so she would go up easy and Bice when the clock struck.” This experierce brings to mind the scare that was given the country one summer night several seasons ago, when, toward the close of a concert on the White House grounds by the Marine Band, the flag ap- peared at half-mast. A too-enterprising | correspondent of an out-of-town newspaper immediately bulletined a death in high official circles, and the people were nearly | scared out of their kaleidoscopic wits before the reassuring fact was sent out that there was no one dead and that no one was sick. It appeared later that Uncle Jerry, the faithful major domo of the nether regions | in the Executive Mansion, had let his hal-| yards slip a little during the rendition of the last air, and so had let the flag go down the mast. Still later information revealed the fact that Jerry is abominably afraid of “ghoses” and is convinced that the White House garret is thickly populated with spirits. Hence his haste to run down | the flag before the darkness had quite covered him. | Last autumn some amusement was! caused by the appearance of the flag on| the Senate mast one morning during the extra session, when the silver bill was under debate, with the bright blue field| with its white stars fluttering ignomin-| fously underneath In other words, it was floating “Union down,” the direst signal of distress that can be shown. THE FIRST VOTE. Mr. Telier’s Motion to Restore the MeKinley Rate on Wool Defeated. The first vote on the wool schedule was taken in the Senate today at 3 o'clock, upon Mr. Teller’s motion to restore the Mc- Kinley rate on wool. Lost, 20-37, a party! vote, Stewart voting yea, and Peffer, Allen | aad Kyle, the other populists, nay. 1 -o Personal Mention. Dr. Samuel W.

Knights of Pythias Commander En- thusiastic Over Prospects. Gen. Carnahan, commander-in-chief of the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, ac- companied by a section of his personal staff, arrived in Washington over the Ches- apeake and Ohio railroad at 2:45 this after- noon. The general was in first-rate spirits when The Star man met him, and while shaking hands took time to say that he had had a splendid trip, and but for the dust and other inconveniences incident to sum- mer travel, never felt more vigorous or en- thusiastic in his life. Gen. Carnahan is a military-looking man. His bearing and car- riage are erect, self-possessed and com- manding, and he appears to be every inch the leader which his followers believe him to be. He is a strongly built man, of about 160 pounds weight, and stands about five feet seven or eight inches in height. He has a forceful facé, square jaw, and a Piercing eye that searches deep down Into the soul of the man on whom he fixes It. “Although,” said Gen. Carnahan, “I have not had an opportunity of inspecting the field, yet from what I have learned through private correspondence, the press and com- munion with those who are closely in touch with the coming celebration, I feél that it is to be one of the greatest periods in the his- tory of the Knights of Pythias. One of the most inspiring features of the approaching encampment is that ycur citizens have taken hold with a spirit and vim which means success. This is especially gratifying to me, as in the early part of the campaign I was iomewhat troubled lest they feel apathetic toward us, and class the convention and en- campment as rather a local thing, interest in which would be confined to the order. Of course, I cannot tell you all about the details as yet, because they will not be agreed on until the confer- ence tonight. I have been in personal communication with Secretary Medford and Gen. John E. Smith of your committee, and in this way, with the aid of the full and complete reports which have been printed in the Washington papers, I have manage1 to follow the drift of things pretty well, but then this is not so satisfactory as being on the field. The meeting tonight, at which I am to meet with the executive committee, and, I trust, with the citizens alsp, will be productive of much good, inasmuch as sev- eral controverted points as to detail will be dispcsed of. We will talk over the camp plan thoroughly, and the ball matter will be discussed. The question of the parade will be settled and all the details of the great competitive drill will be arranged. Every- thing here seems to look very bright, and I have no fear as to the outcome of the en- campment. The prospects seem more flat- tering to our order than they dif at Kansas City in 1892." —_ > WILL CO-OPERATE. Secretary Carlisle Desirous for Better Architecturai Designs. Messrs. Price, Kerriher and Kendall, a subcommittee of architects, interested in the plan of having the designing of public buildings opened to general competition, had a conference with Assistant Secretary Curtis and Architect O’Kourke ut the Treasury Department today, with a view to the formulation of a bill free from the objections found in the present law. As- sistant Secretary Curtis sald that ihe de- partment was perfectly willing to have the matter placed in the hands of a commis- sion, as proposed in the bill prepared by the architects, but that he could not an- swer as to the other provisions of the bill until he had more time to examine them. He made it perfectly clear that Secretary Carlisle is decidedly in favor of any ieyis- lation that will tend to an improved sys- tem of government architecture, and that he will gladly co-operate with the archi- tects in securing legislation that will ac- complish that result by practical methods. = Court of Appeals.

NEW YORK, June 15.—The stock market today continues to be of the same purely professional character as that cf yesterday. Lordon is not a factor one way or the other, and foreign houses say that this con- dition will obtain abroad until the fate of the tariff bill in both houses is definitely known. in Sugar the “bears” met disappointment at the start. Brokers for “insiders” were early in the crowd with supporting orders, and although the price Gipped fractionally urder last night's closing figures, the stock remained strong throughout the entire merning. t “Whisky,” which declined sharply 4n.\the, closing hour yesterday, was also we taken care of by its friends, and while transaa- tions in it were limited, the price remaimed firm. The other “industrials” were without feature. There is little to be said about the rail- road list. Dullness, or rather stagnation, prevails, the disheartening earnings con- tinue, and it is not surprising that they are exerting a depressing influence. Following Atchison’s enormous decrease of upward of @ quarter of a million for the first week in June, on top of St. Paul's unfortunate loss of $129,000 for the same period, comes Union Pacific’s statement for the month of April, showing a decrease in net earnings for Union ‘ific proper of $158,000, and for the entire system a decrease in net of a sum approximating $400,000, This result, shows that traffic conditions in the west and northwest are in no better shape than those of the southwest. This statement ‘accounts for the weakness in the stock developed early yesterday morning, and in view of the fact that it railied slightly on the pub- lication of the above statement, its effects may be considered to have been discounted. New York Central may be considered, the only feature in the railroad list. The sen- sational showing made by the contpany (even in these times) for the month of Ma, created a very: bearish feeling on the pro erty, and as the dividend time approaches rumors of a reduction in the rate are plen. tiful. The directors will meet on the 22d instant to act on the dividend. North Pacific preferred, which has been very strong of late, owing to the large short interest, was more plentiful in the loan crowd, and was correspondingly weak in the market, selling at 15 3-8 against 16 1-4 yesterday. Gold exports of about $4,009,000 have been made, but will show a smaller loss to the banks, as currency has again come in from the country to the amount of $2,750,000, or more, according to estimates of bank offl- cers, The south is sending much. actual money this way. The market continued very dull and flat up to about the delivery, when a vicious at- tack was made on “Sugar,” the price for which had hung steadily around 98 for the Preceding couple of hours, knocking the price to 965-8. The same firm that was Prominent in yesterday's selling movement was active again, their sales being estimated at 7,000 for the day. The flurry was very short-lived, and had absolutely no effect on the rest of the list, the price recovering to about 98 before the close, which, while very duil, was firm, the general feeling being more hopeful than that of yesterday. —_-_~ FINANCIAL AND COMMERCTAL, The following are the opening, the high- est and the lowest and the closing prices of the New York stock market today, a§ re- ported by Corson & Macartney, members New York stock exchange.
