The morning hour was dispensed with in order to take up the army 2p- propriation bill, which passed It ap- propriates , $27,011,000, an increase over last year of $1,000,000. The house spent the entire day on the army appropriation bill, to which the committee had attached a section removing war claims from the quar- termaster’s department to the court of claims, and retiring officers at the age of 62. The last named section was favored b{_ Messrs. Brage and Butterworth, The first mentioned was vigorously opposed by Messrs. Updegraff (fowa) and White, and supported by Messrs.

A message was received from the president, conveying copies of com- munications with the British govern- ment regarding the protection of American citizens in Persia during the Kurl-Persian war of 1880, which had been asked for by the house; also a copy of a letter from the state de- partment to the British government asking to attend to the protection of American missionaries in Persia if needed.

It was decided to refer the question to the attorney general for an opinion. That opinion was presented at the cabinet meeting '.D-dl{. and discussed to unusual length. It 18 defiritely known that a message will be sent to both houses on Monday, including the legal opinion in support of the ground taken, which ground it is expected will be that the best policy would be for congrees #0 jointly ask the return of the bill without “signature for modification. There is a difference of opinion as to the exact decision reached, but the weight is with the idea that the bill will neither be signed or vetoed until it comes again before congress. FOLGER'S ABSENCE. It is definitely stated that Secretary Folger's absence has no political sig- uificance. He wont on private busi- nees and only kept his destination secret to avoid annoyance.

Hasford, at Oukdale, and m an introductory paragraph as referring to a Mr. Har- ford, but which I doulit not that a largo proportion of the business men and bankers of Omaha will readily recognize as identical with the signa- ture to innumerable scraps of paper containing dishonored prowises to pay. The burden of this Jeremiad 18 that ©0. P, H.” was disappointed in ob- taining a special rate on trans- portation of wate for build- ing a church reminary by rea- son of the provision of the “tub law,"” which prohibits discrimin- ation. But while shedding these crocodile tears on behalf of the church of which ‘0. P. H.” ix «i bright and shining a light (hewscu help the church!), the true inwarduess of this latest complaint of the oppression of the ““tub law” is brought out by the following extract from **0. P, H.’s” letter: “Just before the passage of that law we had a special rate on flour to last for a certain period, but as scon as the time expired the epecial rate was withdrawn, and the locai freight on flour advanced be- tween sixty and seyenty per cent. This of courso was a fatal blow to the milling interest,” ete. As “0, P. H.”is so devout a Christian, and, without doubt, reads his Bible at least on Sundays when the water is low, I will commend h m for his next Sunday’s reading to Acts xix: 24, et seq., for a parallel to his own disioterested Christian stutesman- ship. But every cloud has its silyery . liniag, snd while the “slough of despond,” by reason of having to pay the same as other peo- ple for its transportation, ‘‘O. P. .’ has just received notice that ‘‘yielding to the urgency of our ap- peals,” the Sioux City & Pacific road, m its “generosity,” will establish a low rate on flour, and thereat ““O. P. H.” gushes his gratitude. And this low rate 18 to be made *‘general and equal all along their line.” This is a result, however, that *‘O. P, H.” does not want to bargain for. He wants the low rate, but he wants it for the flour manufactured at the Oakdale mill,and that the law prohibits, ‘‘hence these tears.” But why should the consum- ers of the Hour weep? They obtain the benefit of the low rate instead of the difference being pocketed by *‘O. P. H,” aud the other railroad pets. This is u fairsample of every complaint made against the operation of the law, outside of railroad managers themselves, They are not expected to ace anything but blue rumin any law which is calculated to check their greed or lessen their power, Is it not about time for The Herald editor to order to the front us other licutenant, Jo.

Tney have beon nominally quoted of late at $60 to 865. But within the last few days there have been transactions at $73. The negotiations concluded to- night will result first in a change of the board of directors of the Mutual Union, which has consisted of seven members. The new board will be composed of Messrs. Baker, Ballou, and Peck, of the present board, John (. Moore, senior partner of the firm of contractors who have built the lines, and H. C. Fahnstock, all of whom may be considered as repre- senting the Mutual Union as it stood before the transaction of to-day, and Gen. G. M. Dodge, of Washington, B. Connor, and probably Jay Gould and his son George Gould. It is possible that George 8. Scott will be decided uponin place of one of the Goulds. John G, Moore is to' be president of the company.
