o il » - wa' ELEVENTH YEAR. HAPPY NEW YEAR. How the Day Was Observed at the National Capital. President Arthur's First New Year's Levee a Brilliant Social Success. The White Houce a Scene of ; Subdued Glory — T'he Ladies Who Assisted the President: As Well as What They Wore on the Ocoasion. National Aseocia‘ed Press WasniNetoy, January 2. -It 1s generally remarked here that the re- ception at the White House to-day, though a very quiet oue, was more largely attended and more brilliant than for many years. The general feeling towards the new president is wost kindly. Everybody is willing to testify regard for him and their support in the duties of his position. Party feeling scems to have been for- gotten, aud his most ardent op- ponents Jspeak Lindly of [him and his abikity thus far displayed. This accounts in part for the lurge attend ance at the rcception to-day. An wther cause is that comparatively few people here have seen the president and many lese have had the privilege cf meeting himi. There has not been @ New Year's reception at the Whi House for twelve years in which there was mingled with the feeling of re spect as much curiosity as to-aay. Be. side a desirc to see the president in pereon, there were many who were anxious tosee the White House since it had been refitted. 1t is considered by all that the interior hee never looked so well as it did to-day. Still ancther cause for the large attendance was the fact that the weather, though quite cold, was very pleasant and particularly by comparison with forwer asiong of this sort. Oue year ago the day was much colder, while ou January 1880, a heavy snow storm and v disagreeable weather prevented attendance. The attendance of the army and navy was particularly large. The toileties of the ladies were in many cases very handsome. The ladies who received with the president were Mre. Fre- linghuysen, who wore a black satin and brecade; the wife of Attorney General Brewster stood next; she wore a dark wine-colored velvet with collar and ruff and-elbow eleeves of antique lace; Mrs. Lincoln, wife of the secretary of war, was next. She wore black Spanish lace, open on the sides and frount, showing a rich wnderekirt of old gold ‘astin. Mrs, Senator Logan’ blue velvetszith white satin, and pro- fusion of white lace and a handsome dress. Two-of the mostelegant dresses were worn by Postmester ‘Guoneral Jamee' wife;who stood next, and their daughter, Mrs. Pearson, with whom ‘the president had made it a personal matter that they should return from New York and assist hita to-day. Both dresses were evidently worn for the firsttime; that of Mrs. James was of a sea shell tint of pink woire antique, with broad ruffs of plain satin, same.shade, over which fell a very wide point duchesse lace. The exquisitely tine skirt had a long train, pe fectly vluin, of the rich material, anc the wuiet, which was cut square 1 the neck, was tricn- | med with the vame lace. The skirt was very long end graceful, and was cut out at the bottom in a vandyke; across the front it was fimshed with narrow triple bix pleats. The wifo of Senatar Miller, of Califoraia, was the next lady; she wore a superb moire an. tique made wih watteau pleats, | trimmed with poiut lace. 8he wore rich jewels. A daughter of the sec retary of the navy stood at the end in line. She wore black Spanish lace over colored silk. Mrs. Don Came- ron wore white sil. with the front breadth trimmed with gold brocado, her gatin dress was also trimmed with point lace and peari fringe ornaments of dianonds; Mrs. Pendleton, over white skirt white stviped gauze; Mus. Blaine wore an elegant dress of pure velvet and satin, with a few ehoice diamond ornaments; Mrs. Robeson wore heliotrope and white brocade combined with plain feliotrope silk; Miss Lucy Frelinghuysen and her-sis- ter, Mrs John Davis, wore very elo- ant full dress toilettee. The "num- or of ladies precent was unusually large, nearly all officials having ouo or more members of their families with them, Particularly noticeable among the foreign represontatives were the new Chineso minister and assistaut, dressed in full Chinese costumo ve wearing upon Lis cap the ineizna of rank to which he belongs. The T'urk ish winister was also a notable fizure, | wearing his red cap with tassell dar- ing the reception according to the cus tom of his nationality. The p was very | lainly dressed in black cut less gloves buing the only dash of white in his costume. This innoyu- tion upon costume so long held by which the presidents received in full dress was the subject of nu little com- | sition candidates and the unseating of ment and the cellent taste 80 often com- plimented in the past few months, received much farther commendation, At 12 o'clock the army and navy off cers calle!, presenting a very hand some appearance in their brilliant uniforms, At 12:30 came the com- wissioner of agriculture, Mr, Loring; the assistant secrotaries of the depart ment, the assistant postmaster gen eral, Solicitor Gencral Phillips and president’s ex- the heads of bureaus of the several | departments. The uuwmber of scua wors and members of con wiks quite small, owing to the fact that | most of them were absent from the city. The new attorney goneral an l} THE OMAHA DAILY BEE postmaster goneral were among the WASHINGTON., oallers. The Marine band discoursed - excellent music during the hours of reception. At 12:4H hasitants association called, and at 1 p. m. the generai reception to citizens began. The attendance of army and navy officers this year was particularly large and brilhant; among habitues of the White House the reception was remarked as being & remarkably quiet one, though generally well at- tonded. There was a subdued and solemn air in the personal conduct of many callers, which showod that re. collection of the scenes in the house of the past few months was very vivid before their minds. Probably to none are’ they more vivid than to President Arthur. Commerce Bill. House Probable INTER-STATE COMMERCE Special to the Clucinnat Commercial Wasnisaxox, D C., Decomber 30. Among measures which will be early presented for the consideration of con- ress is an inter-state commerce bill, which bears the name of Mr. Reagan, of Texas, Reagan says that he be came a momber of this congress chiefly for tho purpose of urging this bl The cards “of admission to | Page, of Cahfornia, chairman of the the principal callers were | gommittee on commerce, has an- in deep bla border, and by [ younced himself in favor of this meas- the president’s special dosire all dis play in the housé was dispensed with save the halls auf rooms were made cheerful with plants and light and warmth. It is, however, the genvral rezairk that the house never looked so woll as at this time. The halls have been refurnished snd repainted in ex cellent taste, righ Turkish carpots Iaid and the lls of the blue and red roowm§ newly decora- ted. The house was very comfortable in thé early part of the day, but the constant stream of eallers passing throwch *he deors, making it necessary to keep them couetantly open, chilled atmospkere in the re- ception rooms, and the biting winter air of the outside had hefore 2 o'clock found its way to every part of the house. Daring the citizens’ hour the number of callers was unususlly large, due in part to the fact that the day, although cold, was unusually pleasant, and the fact that few people here have yet seen the president. The gas was not lighted in any of | the parlors or oorridors, but curiaing were 80 arranged as to make a semi- twilight as the sun shone through them. Most of the foreign countries ware represented by ministers, but in | a fow cases in the abserce of that othi- | cind, anather personacted in his stead. | M=, De Meseener, of the Russian le- | gation, represented that country, in I the absence of the Russian minister All members of the ciplomatic cor, s whose uniforms on stete occasions is prescribed by 1heir reapective govern. | rants, wora full court, dress. while | those havirg no uniforin wore dress suits.

No Iadicz wero ‘with this party, which entered last of all, as its minister is the latest accession to the diplomatic corpe. - After the reception at the White Houne ‘those of the cabinet officers who were so oireumstanced &sto e able to receive did so. Sucretary Frelinghuysen reesived the foreign cepresentatives at his residence on ‘I otreet, after which his doors were ure, and several of his associates in the committee oncommerceare known to be also favorable to the Reagan bill. The fundamental provisions of the bill are: First, That the constutional inter- protation of “‘commerce’ includes in- ter-state trdflic, and that while froight and passengers transported within the state are solely under control of the laws passed by state legislatures, freights, passengers, &e., which are ved in one state to be delivered in another, are subject to regulations prescribed by congress. Tho bill is lengthy and explicit as to the manner in which the authority over inter state teaftic, which it asse | exists in congress, should be exer cised. Reagau isquite sanguine as to the passage of his bill if a reportcan be had from the committee on com- merce. but the bill will encounter heavy opposition both in connmittee and in the kouse. The eonstitutional doetrine which it asserts will be stout- ly contested. It will be argued in the ittee on commerce that thirty- eight state legislatures are better guardiang of the pesple’s interests in these matters,which come under their immedia‘e observation, than one na tional legislature could be. Tt will be argued again that raiirads derive their charters from the states; that the charters ars contracts between the states on the one hand and certain individuals corporations on the other,-and that congress has not the power to invalidate or alter or im- pair the obligations of these con- tracte. It will be imsisted that transportation is not commerce; that trade 18 not commerce; that property which may become the subject of commercs 43 not commerce, and that mwary things and conditions, which, together g¢ to make up commerco ave not themselves commerce within the meaning ot the constitution, and are not, therefore, proper subjects of can- grossional regulation. s, In the case of Gibson against Og¢- don, the supreme ' ceurt, through Judge ‘Marshall, declared that laws which reepect turnpike roads, ferries, &¢., aro-not within the:power granted th congreas.

This | city was thrown into intense excite- | ment by o rumor that a terrible acet dent had happened on the Bostor Maine railrond. As soon as word | was received in this city, wrecking trains were sent out with physicians, reporters and others, From that time until 7 o'clock not a word could be obtained from the scene, and the wildest rumors prevailed. The wreck ed train, which left Boston on the Boston & Maine rmlroad at 8:456 a. m., consisted of two engines, baggage car, parlor and four passenger coaches. About a 1hile the other side of Kennobuuk depot, at a placo called Cold Corner, is an iron bridge over which the road crosses. The bridge is betweon 30 and 40 foot high The tram went upon the bridge, and the engine, baguage and parlor car had safely passed, whon the | bridge gave away, precipitating the four passengors cars down the en bankment. The cars were heated by Baker's heator which burst, and in a short time the “cars were in flames and were entirely con sumed.
