The executive session of the Senate held just prior to adjournment yesterday was devoted largely to cases to which there was no objection, but no time of any con- sequence was given to any one case. With the time fixed for final adjournment all appreciated that any determined opposi- tion would inevitably result in defeat. On this account a number of nominations went over. Among them were those of Hamil- ton G. Ewart, to be judge of the district court for the western district of North Carolina, and Edward R. Meek, to be judge of the northern district of Texas. ‘The southern senators renewed their ob- jection to the nomination of some of the northern men appointed to places in south- to ern regiments and some of the went over. The nomination of E. H. Zurhorst to be collector of customs at Sandu Ohio, met with a like fate on the suggestion of Senator Foraker.

Allison, Chandler and Faulkner as the senatorial members of the committee to investigate the rajiroad rates for carrying the mails. Only one dill which had passed both houses of Congress fail2d to become a law on account of the failure of the President to attach his signature. This was a Housc bill appropriating $10,000 to carry into ef- fect some of the provisions of the Curtis bill concerning the government of Indian territory. It passed the Senat2 about a minute before 2 o’ciock, and not in time to receive the signatura of either the Vice President or the Speaiar of the House.

The War Department has been advised that during a severe storm off the coast of Cuba eleven lighters en route to Santiago, in tow of tugs, were swamped and lost. So far as known, no lives were taken. The lighters were intended for the use of Gen. Shafter in transferring supplies and ord- nance from the transports to shore. Frank Doyle and James Grace were ar- rested last evening for engaging in an af- fray. Today Grace forfeited $5 collateral which he deposited pee to his release, dnd Judge Scott ed Doyle a similar amount, é Dt ON BOARD CATANIA District Boys’ Experiences as Their Boat Lay Of Key West. WILD OUTBURSTS OF ENTHUSIASM When They Heard of the Annihila- tion of the Admiral’s Fleet. THE WEARISOME DELAY From a Staff Correspondent. On Board the United States Transport Ca- tania, Off Key West, July 5.—We have been rocking all day in a broiling sun waiting for some aggravating pumps down below to be fixed. We have had the additional a gravation of seeing six or seven transports go out, crowded with enthus ic troops going to join Shafter's forces at Santiago and complete the work Sampson began so brilliantly yesterday. All the troops on the transports, including the District regiment, had heard the good news of the utter annihilation of Cervera’s fleet, and the enthusiasm wes unbounded. Colonel Harries and Chaplain Dudley had been ashore, heard the good news and has- tened back to Jet us aboard know it. As the gallant transports, with their crowds of enthusiastic troopers came up to the anchorage of the Catania on their way out to the Bahama straits each tried to ex- cel the previous passer-by in the character and amount of the enthu Cheered and Cheered. They all knew the District beys, either Personally or by reputation, and as they Pi d they checred and cheered, while the band played “Dixie,” “My Maryland,” “Old Kentucky Home” and other popular airs. A significant thing in connection with the sailing of the flotilla was that only two Men-of-war accompanied them. The Wil- mingtcn and Machias acted as convoys, and their crews were no less fervent than the voluntes in their greeting to the District treops as they d by our anchorag Colonel Harrie out with the rest, and was no le: pointed than the men when informed by our skipper that he was not able to join ount of defects . the other transports on a to his machinery About 3 p.m. the interest and attention of all on board was raised to a keen pitch by the appearance in the offing of an un- usually large steamship, which proved to be the transport Iroquois, coming up to Key West from Santiago with the wound- ed, who were hit in the first engagement which took place in and about that point. Shafter’s Wounded Men. It was an impressive, sympath sight—those poor fellows with heads, arms in slin of wounds, which they had received in the ¢ of their country. Yet when they rousing were hailed by our boys to kn y who they were, there was a ring ¢ unmistakable pride in their vo ered back the hail, “We are S| a. There were more questions, chiefly as to the news, for they had teen about four days out from Santiago, and when they heard the story of Sampson's latest victory shouted back across the water to them, went wild with joyful excitement We've got Manila, too,” shouted one from the bridge of the Catania. e occasion for another great outburst of enthusiasm from the crippled ns, and our men joined them in the me to when we will get away. The latest news from between decks was to the effect that there was still another pump to fix, so we scarcely expect to sail tonight. D.1. M. THE TRIP FROM PORT TAMPA, Our Soldiers on the Transport Cele- brated the Fourth of July. From a Staft Correspondent. 8. Transport Ca ania, off July 4.—After many de- got the Ist District frem Port npa at 10 o'clock y terday (Sunday) morning. At the same time two other transports got away with several batteries of light artillery and an- other loaded with horses. The District men made their usual record for prompt movement in breaking camp and also for a fine and veteran-like appea ance as they marched away frem camp to take train for Port Tampa. Indeed, the District troops have become so accustomed to these deserved compliments that they are taken now ‘S a matter of course, though it has in newise turned their heads or developed that disease by no means un- common in the army, and known as “big head.” The Catania is a big, roomy old tramp steamer, and, though she can only make about half the speed of the Comanche, she has much pleasanter accommodations for the men. It was a novel experience for many of the men, but they soon got set- tled aboard and went about their new duties on board ship like veterans. Sighting Other Ships. The monotony was broken on several oc- casions by the appearance of ships on the horizon and chances of meetings with a Spanish man-of-war would become the topic of most eager conversation among the men. These ships*became more and more frequent as we came nearer Key West. We expect to make Key West sometime tonight, where we hope to hear the news of the fall of Santiago. We were quite fortunate in getting favor- able weather for the trip. The gulf was almost like a duck pond, though there was just breeze 2nough to kick up a few white- caps while not enough to make any of the boys seasick. : Sunday was celebrated by Chaplain Dud- ley holing service on the big afterdeck, at which a number of the men were present and took an active interest, joiniag in the singing with great zest. Indeed few chap- lains are able to command the respect and at the same time th? spirit of comradeship which the men all seem to feel for Mr. Dudley. This being the anniversary of the Dec- laration of Independence Col. Harries map- p2d out a very interesting program for the occasion. He managed to get hold of a copy of the Declaration in some way, which he read with much tmpressiveness. The band played national airs and in most instances the men joined in singing. Shark fishing is also another favorite amusem2nt with the men, but as yet there have been no catches of importance. In Heavy Marching Order. The District troops go to the front in heavy marching order, taking out with them sixty days’ rations and fifteen days’ travel rations. They only have eleven herses aboard, these belonging to the offi- cers, By the way, it is a curious fact that while the men have been absolutely free from seasickness, the horses show unmis- takable signs of nauseau from that cause. On all hands here in gulf porte are to be seen evidences of the cordial relations which have sprung up here of late between Englishmen and Americans. Around Port Tampa I noticed no less than half a dozen typical sea captains of the Johnny Bull nationality. They were al! offusive in their cerdiality toward Americans. About five troops finally 5 mies out of Tampa we passed an English cruiser. Her crew crowded to the bulwarks and ‘cheered lustily, and our District boys gave it back to them with a will and a tiger. The skipper of our ship is an English- man, formerly an officer in the royal navy, and a very accomplished man in his line. He said it was well understood on the other side that an entente has been renched between England and America, and that there Is grave prospect this new coalition is disturbing European diplomats more than anything that has come up in rs. To return to.our soldier friends: they continue to show a most flattering health record. There are only about five men on the sick list, and none ef them are consid- ered serious, It is quite the thing for every regiment going to the front to provide itself with several mascots. The Ist of the District is unusually well provided in this regard. We have a rooster who is very pompous, and who rejoices in the name of Grover Cleve- Jand. M Company has a pug dog for whom {t Is claimed by his friends that he can talk Irish on a push. Other companies again have all sorts of odd pets, which they value very highly which will accompany them to the field Db. 1M. LATE ARMY ORDERS, Capt. R. W. Thompson, jr. 8.

It is a Ten-Dollar Legal Tender Note, Series of ISSO, The Treasury Department has received information that a new counterfeit has made its appearance. It is of the $10 legal tender note, of the series of 1880, check letter C, plate number 8; J. Fount Tillman, register; D. N. Morgan, treasurer: small scalloped carmine real, portrait of Webster, It is apparently printed from plrto-me- chanical plates, more than ordinarily well executed, on two pieces of paper pasted tcgether, between which silk threads have been distributed. The numbering of the note at hand is of fairly good color, but out of alignment, and the figures poorly formed. The white outlines of the photo- graphed original numbers can be discerned beneath the counterfeit. The seal is too dark, being red instead of light carmine. The back of the note has a good general appearance, but much of the lathe work ts blurred and indistinct. The silk threads used are too heavy, and not well dis- tributed. This counterfeit is well calcue lated to deceive persons not expert. No attempt has been made to “doctor” or give the note the appearance of age. ——— +e “LOTTA” HID FROM MARSHALS, Actress Escapes Personal Service in a $100,000 Suit Against Her. NEW YORK, July 9.—For three weeks the lttle woman known to the theatrical world as “Lotta,” but known in law as Lotta Crabtree, has kept herself hid from the United States deputy marshals who have been trying to inform her by “due pro- cess of law” that she has been sued in the United States circuit court for $100,000 for alleged false imprisonment and malicious prosecution. j ‘The plaintiff in the case is Charles C, Macy, who was a member of the firm of Macy & Pendleton, bankers and brokers, of 45 Broadway, with whom Lotta kept a speo- ulative account and with whom she had deposited scveral thousand dollars’ worth of stock to indemnify the firm against loss from any advancements that might be made for her in the buying and selling of stocks. When Macy & Pendleton failed the books baalanced in Lotta’s favor, and she brought @ criminal action against Macy & Pendle- ton for alleged conversion of the stocks. This case was heard about a month ago before Judge McMahon and was dismissed. Thereupon Charles C. Macy instituted the suit in the federal court against Miss Crab- tree, claiming $100,000 damages to his char- acter and reputation. Lotta evidently heard of the ; uit, for she hid herself away for threo long, hot weeks + in her apartment house at the corner of 7th avenue and lijth street. There she staid until last Saturday, when she escaped . the vigilant eyes of the deputy marshals and went to the country. One report says she went to her summer home in Counectie’ cut, while another is to jhe effect that she’ left for some point in New Jersey, : ————_~e-____ Francis Woou was today arraigned be. fore Judge Scott on the charge of com-' mitting a simple e<sauilt on Estelle Phelps. | He asked for a jury trial and wes held in’ $500 bail by Judge Scott for his 8 anted. : 4) Zz when wi
