BALL, 120 Broadway, New York, fel3-2w END OF THE REVENUE BILL. price Effect of the Senate’s Refusal to Give It Consideration. There was a curious misunderstanding among the leaders of the republican side of the Senate yesterday afternoon in regard to the fight precipitated by Senator Mor- rill’s motion to take up the tariff bill, As briefly noted in The Star, Mr. Sherman de- clared that he should not rest content with the vote just taken, but, to use the words credited to him in the Congressional Record this morning, he should, “at the proper time and under proper circumstances, move to take up this bill and then see what the defects are.” Mr. Frye’s Speech. Later Mr. Frye said: “I have been in- structing my constituents, business men, for the last month and a half that there was not the slightest possibility of the House tariff bill becoming a law. I think I have known for a month that it was dead. After the two votes, one of a fortnight ago end the other of today, there is not a Sen- ator here who does not know that It is as dead ‘as Julius Caesar, and that there is no resurrection whatever for it. The bus- iness men of this country ought to know it now, and they ought to conduct their business with a view to the fact that it is dead. When the democratic party of the Senate and the populist party of the Senate both announce that they by their votes will not support this tariff bill, that they will not consider it, it is utterly hopeless for any republican to undertake to obtain its consideration. I wish to dissent from the proposition made by the distinguished Senator from Ohio (Mr. Sherman) that it was his duty and the duty of republicans to further undertake to obtain considera- tion for this dead Dill.” Mr. Aldrich’s Diplomacy. As a matter of fact, Mr. Sherman had reached the Capitol soméwhat late, and had not been fully informed as to the program. Hence, his speech was somewhat at cross purposes with the plans agreed upon, and of which Mr. Morrill, as chair- man of the finance committee, had given public notice. In order to make good the discrepancy, Mr. Aldrich interrupted Mr. Frye at this point in his speech to intimate that Mr. Morrill’s announcement had not been rightly understood. Mr. Frye continued: “I did not hear the chairman of the committee make that statement. I am very glad he did so, and I trust that no republican’ will undertake to have a vote again on the consideration of the bill. Suppose, as the Senator from Ohio suggested, it should be ‘taken up and could be amended, there is not a Senator here who does not know that more than 600 amendments would be offered to it, and Senators know perfectly well that more than three months’ time would be con- sumed in its consideration, and that the business of the country would be held on the ragged edge for the whole of the pe- riod. Business has had blows enough dur- ing the last two or three PS ‘'s. Congress should not inflict any more upon it. I trust, sir, this bill will not be heard from again, and that no republican Senator, no friend of protection, will as the Senate to give it any further consideration. Let it be dead, and let the responsibility lie where it belongs.” Chairman Dingley’s Views. Chairman Dingley of the ways and means committee, in reply to an inquiry as to the effect of the refusal of the Senate yes- terday to consider the House revenue bill, said: 2 “Of course, this ends all chances for the passage of any revenue bill. By a solid democratic and populistic vote—making in themselves a majority, without the votes of the five free silver republicans who join- ed them—the Senate has said that it will not have the forty millions of revenue of- fered by the House bill to prevent further deficiencies. The House has done its duty in offering revenue, but this majority of the Senate assumes the full responsibility for refusing it, and no doubt President Cleve- land is grateful to them for relieving him from the difficult position he would have been in if the bill had reached him and he had interposed a veto. The vote of the Senate simply means that so far as the ma- jority of that body is concerned they want the deficiency to continue with the bond ales which it necessitate —-o—____ Lenten Lectures. Rev. C. George Currie, rector of Christ Church, Baltimore, delivered the first of a series of Lenten lectures at the Church of the Epiphany last evening. The course of lectures is under the auspices of the Churchmen's League, and a lecture will be given every Tuesday evening during Lent, with the exception of the last week, when the lecture will be given on Thursday. The usual religious exercises will follow and pre- cede each lecture. “The Church and the Nation” was the subject of Dr.- Currie’s address last evening. The lecturer con- fined himself chiefly to the religious future of our country, and also to the future wel- fare of the Christian church. The political future and the religious future of the coun- try were discussed on parallel lines, show- ing that the church and the state have many Interests in common. The next lec- ture will be given next Tuesday evening by Rev. Charles W. E. Body of the General Theological Seminary of New York on “The Chureh and the Conservative Forces in So- ciety." The other lectures will be as fol- low: Tuesday, March 10, “The Church and Christian Unity,” R William R. Hunting- ton of Grace Church, New York; Tuesday, March 17, “The Church and the Labor Question,” Rev. Nelson S, Rulison, bishop of central Pennsylvania; Thursday, March 26, “The Church and Evolution,” Rev. Geo. Hodges, dean of the Episcopal Theological School of Cambridge, Mass. ——.___ 5 Messenger Boys’ Entertainment. - The messenger boys of the District gave an entertainment at Loyal Legion Hall, on 10th street northwest, last evening for the purpose of raising money with which to equip a gymnasium for their use. The en- tertainment was a most enjoyable one, and a large audience helped to swell the gym- nasium fund very materially. The boys have a regular organization, of which Jas. A. Griffith, jr., is the president, and he pre- sided over the affair last evening. He was assisted by Mrs. Nellie E. Bradley. Those who took part in the program were as fol- lows: James Griffith, Miss Helen Welch, Mr. Kretcham, Miss Mabel Welch, Con- rad Newmeyer, Miss Helen Kretcham, Charles B. Spencer, Miss Cora McLean, a quartet and a chorus of the boys, which fang several songs very acceptably. ——___ Mr. Curtis’ Lecture on China. Mr. William E. Curtis delivered a lecture on “The Manners and Customs of China” at the Church of the Covenant last evening before an audience that completely filled the chapel room. As Mr, Curtis has but lately returned from the Chinese posses- sions, he 1s especially well fitted to discuss the habits of those queer people, and his lecture was listened to with the greatest amount of appreciation by every one with- in reach of his voice. Mr. Curtis touched upon many points connected with the Iffe of the Chinese, telling, among other things, how they execute their murderers and other criminals and how they punish other male- factors. He also spoke on the scientific and educational side of Chinese life, and illus- trated his lecture by means of handsome views. a It don’t smoke Sw: joments cigarettes sou don't ‘get ‘the best, fea a 26, 1896—-TWELV® PAGES! 2+ JURORS DRAWN Citizens Liable to Duty During the Month BES Names Announced by the Clerk of the Supreme Court of the District The names of the following have been drawn from the box by the clerk of the Supreme Court of the District of Colum- bia for service as jurors for the month be- ginning Tuesday, March 8: Criminal Court No. 1.

He Says the Charges Made by Lieut. Ross Are Without Foundation. Capt. Munger, who has been detached from the revenue cutter Corwin, having re- ceived instructions to report for duty to Capt. Hooper, as superintendent of con- struction and repairs for the Pacific coast, said, when informed of the charges pre- ferred by Lieut. Ross of the cutter Com- modore Perry: “This is the first intimation I have had that charges were preferred against me. I characterize the accusation of drunken- ness as untrue, denying most emphatically that I was intoxicated while in the Bering sea, or at any other time when on duty. “As to the sailor who was drowned a year ago in April in Taku harbor, it was an accident such as no human effort could have prevented, and I came near losing my own life. Twelve seamen and myself, in one ship's boat, with a seine, were return- ing from the shore to the vessel. When within fifty feet of the Corwin a ‘wollier’ squall, from the top of one of those Alas- kan mountains, struck us and buried the boat, throwing all of us into the water. Two seamen stayed by the boat, and the rest, save Welin, the sailor who was drowned, swam to the ship, though I would have drowned within ten feet of the vessel if I had not been rescued, for I was weighted down with a big fur coat. “Lieut. Ross was not attached to the Corwin at the time of the accident, conse- quently he must be preferring the charges either from hearsay evidence or the re- ports of some maliciously disposed per- sors, SPAIN’S PRESS CENSORSHIP. The Philadelphia Press Correspond- ent in Cuba Imprisoned. Murat Halstead telegraphs to the Phila- Gelphia Press from Havana: Charles Michelson, correspondent of the Philadelphia Press here, and his inter- preter, Lorenzo Betancourt, were arrested this morning at 2 o'clock by officers who searched the room and strictly examined everything. At 6 o'clock the prisoners were tnken to Moro Castle, where they row are and cannot be seen until their statement is taken and considered by the authorities. My declaratipn to the American consul is already in the hands of the chief of Polics. e consul general and myself will see the captain general as soon as possible. The arrest grows out of an at- tempt yesterday to visit the combat scene beyond Marienao and being refused au- thority. Others ventured through, I am told, and it was assumed that Michelson and his interpreter had violated orders. Possibly Michelson’s kodak has something to do with it. No pains will be spared to wecure the speedy release of the prisoners. —— oe Public Schools.

A MIGHTY HOST The Endeavorers Organising a Chorus of 4,000 Voices. Arrangements for the Convention in July Progressing Steadily and Successfully. Preliminary steps toward organizing the mammoth convention chorus, which will lead in the singing et the great meetings during the Christian Endeavor convention in July next, were taken at a meeting of the auxiliary music committee held in the First Congregational Church last evening. The music of the great international gath- erings of the Christian Endeavorers has al- ways been one of the most inspiring fea- tures of those meetings, and the members of the organization here are determined to make the musical feature of the convention a most prominent and effective one. . Charles S. Clark, chairman of the '96 music committee, presided. The meeting was opened with prayer by P. H. Bristow. W. H. H. Smith, chairman of theecommit- tee of "06, spoke for several minutes upon the great opportunities for usefulness and large responsibility which fell to the lot of the auxiliary music committee, and urged that in all their work the best of feeling and harmony of action should prevail. Mr. Clark outlined the plan of the organi- zation of the convention chorus. This chorus will be composed of 4,000 voices, and will be known as “The "6 Convention Chorus.” At the time of the convention this great chorus will be divided into four sections, which will be known as A, B, C and D, respectively. The preliminary or- ganization of the chorus will be in the hands of the members of the auxiliary music committee. Each member of this committee, which is composed of one per- son from each Christian kndeavor Society in the District, is directly responsible for the work of organizing a choir in connec- tion with his Christian Endeavor Society. How They Will Train. The membership of the choir is not con- fined to Christian Endeavorers, but is open to members of the congregation of the charch in which a choir is organized, mem- bers of adjacent Epworth leagues, Baptist Young People’s unions and other young pco- ple’s religious organizations, and such oth- ers as are deemed suitable by the organizer. In fact, membership in the choir will afford the only opportunity for any one else besides delegates to attend the regular sessions of the convention. Seats will be reserved for members of the choir upon the platfurm with the speakers, and, aside from the other seats upon the platform, there will be no ‘reservation, save for the press. The feeling prevailed in the meeting of the committee that the music-loving peovie of the city would heartily Go-operate in sup- porting the effort to make the convention music a most inspiring feature. After a cer- tain amount of drilling by the members of the auxiliary music committee, the choirs of the various churches will be assembled in sections and drilled by competent leaders. Cards of membership were handed to the members of the committee, one of which must be signed by each person desiring to become a member of the chorus. The com- mittee do not wish it understood that the chorus can be used as a convenience in order to secure admission to the sessions of the convention, but that every person applying for membership must be a competent singer, and willing to co-operate most earnestly in the work of making the singing a success. Mr. Clark stated that in all probability before the time of the convention the choir would give several large concerts, and that at least one time during the convention the entire choir would be assembled for a grand song service. The meeting adjourned with song and prayer. Hotel Headquarters, The Star recently published the list of state delegations which had secured hotel headquarters. Sixteen delegations have al- ready closed with the hotels for quarters, and excursion managers are continually visiting the city looking into the matter and perfecting their arrangements. It is significant that although the convention is yet four months in the future, hotel accom- modations have been secured for nearly as many delegations as were quartered in hotels in Boston last year when the con- vention opened. In other words, while eighteen state delegations put up at hotels in Boston at the last convention, seventeen delegations have already engaged their quarters for the Washington convention, ard others, having the matter under con- sideration, have not yet completed their ar- rangements, The last to secure quarters was the West Virginia delegation, which arranged yesterday, through its managers, Rey. Charles S. Trump and Mr. R. Frank Earr of Martinsburg, for a portion of the Ebbitt House. It is expected that West Virginia will send a delegation at least 250 strong. RECEPTION TO MR. CARLISLE. The Secretary of’the Treasury on the Doctrines of Democracy. Secretary Carlisle was the guest of the Manhattan Club in New York last night. After the reception a banquet was served in the dining hall, at the conclusion of which Mr. Couéert, in introducing ‘the guest of the evening, said: “The states- man we have with us tonight is worthy of our respect and consideration. Mr. Car- lisle’s proudest title is that of pedagogue. It is the schoolmaster that rules the world, and the great title of our honored guest tonight is that of schoolmaster of the na- tion in sound finances.” When Secretary Carlisle arose to address the assemblage he was greeted with loud applause. After thanking the club for its hospitality aad for the cordial reception it had extended to him, he said: “I wanted to be here tonight, because I knew that your halls would be thronged and your tables surrounded mainly by old- fashioned democrats who have never re- Pudiated, and I am sure never will re- pudiate, the principles of their party-— scund money, just taxation, economy in the expenditure of the public moneys, honesty and fidelity in the discharge of official duty ond the preservation of individual liberty and the rights of the states. After an extended argument agains: the free coinage of silver, Mr. Carlisle con- cluded as follows: “Gentlemen, the democratic party is not dead. (Cheers.) The time is not at hand to diseolve its organization and distribute its assets among the populists at large. (Cheers.) I hope the democratic party w. enter upon the coming political cont on a perfectly sound declaration of prin- ciples. If it does, it will come out of it with- unimpaired strength, with unblem- ished record and with courage for the ight.” Death of Mrs. Simonds. Mrs. Mary Isabel Simonds, wife of Stephen Simonds, died yesterday at Dr. J. Ford Thompson's sanitarium, after a short illness. Mrs. Simonds was prominent in works of charity in the southeast section of the city, and was the center of a large circle of iriends. She was an active mem- ber of the Order of the Golden Cross, hay- ing held the highest offices in Anacostia Commandery and the Grand Commandery of the District. The funeral will take place Friday morning from Christ’s Church, Navy Yard. ——._—_—_ For Divorce. Henry L. Burdette has filed a petition for d'vorce from Mary L. Burdette.

Speeches in Concludes. Senator Morgan yesterday concluded the formal part of his Speech on the Cuban resolutions, which mainly consisted in the setting forth of documents, and in laying the foundation for further remarks. He then ylelded the floor to Mr. Gray, saying that he should present other considerations in behalf of the insurgents later. Mr. Gray proceeded to argue that the recognition of belligerency was not within the powers of Congress. The President had the sole power in this direction. This statement brought out a sharp legal dif- ference between Mr. Morgan and Mr. Gray, the former asserting that the President had no power to recognize belligcrents without the approval of Congress. Mr, Gray ireisted that the pending resolutions gave an expréssion of sympathy, but did not involve a recognition of belligerency, The Serator urged the adoption of a sym- pathetic resolution. Mr. Ledge read an interview with Gen, Weyler prior to the captain general's de- parture from Madrid, stating that he did not expect to crush the rebellion within the next year. The general added that he intended to “exterminate” the insurgents in Havana and other provinces. Mr. Lodge said it disclosed how long Spain expectéd to prolong this bloody struggle. The Senator urged the adoption of the resolution for belligerency and also for the Cameron amendment, looking to independerce. Mere words were not what the people wanted, Action and decisive ac- tion was what was needed. Mr. Stewart spoke against the bloody, murders preceeding in Cuba. It was the duty of the United States to abate this in- ternational nuisance, this slaughter house, existing in Cuba. Mr. Call submitted tables showing that 180,000 Spanish soldiers were operating in Cuba. The Senator declared that the talk of “symyathy” for Cuba was cowardly in the face of the atrocities in Cuba. He gave nctice that he would move an amend- ment for the recognition of the complete indeperdence of Cuba, which statement brought out a burst of applause from the galleries. ———-o+______ CHARTER OBLIGATIONS. The Attorney for the District Recom- mends Senate Bill 572. The attorney for the District, Mr. 8. T, Thomas, has rendered an important opinion. upon Senate bill 572, providing penalties for charter violations by street car companies, In passing upon the bill he says it is necessary in order to enforce the charter obligations of the street railroads to have such legislation as is proposed. The change in the form of government since the two principal railroads were chartered renders the present goverament unable to corpel the observance by those companies of a number of duties enjoined upon them. In several of the charters of the railways ine corporated since 1871, he says, there is no penalty provided for compelling them to observe their duties. And, again, some of the street railways have ceased to oper-. ate portions of their lines, which they have apparently abandoned, leaving the streete incumbered by railway tracks. In such case the Commissioners are powerless to enforce the duty of such corporktions. At present, he sayr, their only remedy is to tear up the old tracks, put the street in good condition and depend upon a suit against the railway company for reim- bursement. As the bill is designed to sup- ply defects and deficiencies in the charters of street railway companies, Attorney Thomas thinks it would be well to state in express terms that it be applied to street railway companies, —_—_ Marriage Licenses, Marriage licenses have been issued to the following: George Voneiff and Alice Brownt Thomas Young and Louisa Williams; John Williams and Annie Hall; O.
