THE HMENNRPIN CANAL. Special Dispatch to THE Bre. ‘WasHINGTON, April 9.—Secretary Wright, of the Mississippi river conven- tion, is a good deal puzzled just now to know what ought to be done in regard to the Hennepin canal. He has been ap- pealed to by the friends of the canal, es- pecially Towa members, to go before the river and harbor committee and urge the insertion of a clause in the river and har- bor bill appropriating $500,000 for tho Hennepin canal. They say frankly that the Hennepin canal bill, as reported from the committee on railways and canals, appropriating $1,000,000 for the Henne- pin canal, is 8o far down on the calendar that there is no hope of reaching it this session, and so the only hope the canal has is to get 1t into the river and harbor bill. The members of the committee in- sist that they have no power to insert canal appropriations in the river and har- bor bill, and that if they open vhe doors to one canal they must load down their bill with every canal in the country. ‘Wright is undecided whether it is his duty under the resolutions of the con- vention to go before the committee in behalf of the Hennepin canal er not.

INSPECTION OF MEATS, ‘I'he senate committee on foreign rela- lations has agreed to report favorably certain of the amendments to the bill to provide for the inspection of meats for exportation, offered by Sherman a day or two ago, together with an additional amendment determined upon in commit- tee. The Sherman amendment was tion of the importation of cattle infected with contagious diseases, and for quaran- tine slaughter of diseased animals, The amendment agreed upon in committee, in addition to the Sherman amendments, provides that whenever in the opinion of the president it shall be necessary for the protection of animals in the United States againat infectious or contagious diseases, he may by proclamation sus- pend the importation of all or any class of animals for a limited time, and may change, modify, revoke or renew such proclamation, as the public good may re- quire, and that during the time of such suspension, the importation of any such animal shall be unlawful.

FORTY-EIGHTH CONG itESS, SENATE, WasHiNgTON, April 9.—Senator Hill from the committes on presidential offices and postal roads, reported favor: bly the original bill to establish the po tal telegraph system. Mill remarked that the committee were unanimous as to the first ten sections of the bill, which relate to doing the work by contracts with ex- isting companies, but that the minority of the committee were opposed to the section relating to the construction or purchase of the line by the government. The provision relating to liability of the contracting company for failing to correctly and promptly transmit messages has been amended by limiting such lia- bility to 500 times the amount paid for transmission, Two new features have been added to the bill. The first auth- orized the contracting company to em- ploy the postmaster as it agent and oper- ator at any postal telegraph oftice where the telegraph receipts are sufficient to the naval appropriation bill and Mr, Vest (dem., Mo,) continued his remarks. Mr., Vest (dom., Mo,) made the point that the decline of our shipping did not, as generally supposed, begin with our civil war. It bezan years beforo. It declined nearly 164 per cent between 1840 and 1860, American ship owner should be permitted to buy ships wherever ho chose; but this was not the only thing. He would reform the wholo protective system,which has struck down the Amorican marine, Mr. MoPherson (dem., N. J.) said that while the government persisted in keep- ing the present secretary of tho navy, it could not wonder at the lack of confi- dence in the navy do§nrtmont. Mr. Halo (rop., Mo.) defended the secretary of the navy. Mr. Vest thought the secretary unduly influonced by a party bias, but in reply to Halo adwmitted that he could not put his finger on any one act of that officer’s administration that would subject him to criticism, Vest arraigned the republi- can party as responsible for the mon- oxistence of the Amerioan navy. Mr. Hale said that during the past twelve years the democrats had control of the house half the time and of the senate part of the time. Mr. Vest replied that they had little sporadic control of the senate and house for about three months. Mr. Beck (dem , Ky.) said the records of the naval expenditures for the last two years would prove the rottenness and corruption in the administration of funds. Mr. Edmunds (rep., Vt ) stated that he had been much interested in the ac- counts given in the senate of the flour- ishing condition of the navy before the war, He read a letter from James Buchanan, dated September 1853, ad- dressed to Hon. Henry A. Wise, Vir- ginia, in which he said: ‘‘We Americans boasted much of our navy, but what was it in comparison to the navies of England or France. Sup- pose these powers should determine to prevent us from interfering in Cuba, in case the time should arrive when we ought to interfere? They had the naval power to carry out their determination, we should at least have navy enough to man our own coast.” Mr. Buchanan further recommended that part of the surplus in the treasury nhuuldp be expend- ed in constructing a navy. Mr. Edmunds eaid that was all the senate wanted to do. Buchanan had also expressed the conviction that the work had better ba put out under contract, which, Edmunds added was what was proposed in this instance. After an executive session the senate adjourned. HOUSE, Mr. Hopkins (dem., Pa.) offered the following preamble and resolutions, which were referred to the committee on commerce: WEREaS, Itis charged that the present system of teansporting Tive stook by tailroad companies engaged in inter-state commerce is barbarous and destructive, that ten per oent. of the animals perish in consequence of this treatment and the flesh of the remainder is unfit for human food; ‘WHEREAS, It is charged that the flesh of animals so treated, including that of dead and aying, is sold to people and cannot when dressed be distinguished from sound meats. and is the source of many and varlous diseases, WHEREAS, It appears by the report of the committee on ulture of this house, Janu- ary 21st, 1875, that the loss by shrinkago alone in the weight of animals causad by this system of transportation amounted to the immense sum of $8,000,000 on the business of 1870, and must now be nearly or quite $16,- 000,000 per annun.; and Wirereas, It has been charged that said railroads, by a system of favoritism, 7ive to a small number of persons known as 'the Asso- ciation of Eveners, a_bonus or gift of almost 815 on every car load of beef cattle shipy frowmn the west to the east, and said sum being 1o part of the actual legitimate cost of trans- portation, but is on the contrary collected by transportérs and paid over to the so-called Eveners as & mere gratuity, and, Waeeas, Tho losses and charges above constitute in the aggegate an enormous tax on & necossary articlewf food, which must be borno by producer and consumer alike, dimin- ishing the just protit of meat growers of the west, and placivg meav food in many in- stances boyond the reach of poor men in the east, and, . WHEREAS, Tt is charged that the act of con- gress requiring railroad companies to unload stock in transit every twenty-eight hours is habitually violated, therefore, Resolved, That the committee on commerce be instructed to inquire whether those evils do in fact exist, and to what extent they mny be remedied by law, with power to send for persons and papers, and_ with directions to report at any time by bill or otherwise. Then a struggle arose as to which of the many pending special orders should obtain precedence of consideration. Mr.Dingley (rep.Me ) essayed to bring up tho shipping bil, but the eflort was unsucos !, the motion being defoated by yeas, 76; nays, 156, Mr. Reagan (dem,, Tox,) met with a o fate on his motion to consider the interstate commerce bill, being voted down by yeas, 101; nays, 120, The speaker ruled that the unfinished business was the Oregon Central land grant bill, Mr. Stockslager, (dem. Ind.), under the order made Monday, asked the houss to consider the public building bills, and moved that the house go into committee of the whole for the consideration of such bills, The tegoni of these measures, united in oposition to the motion, but they were unsuccessful, as the house, by a vote of 160 yeas, to 61 nays, went into committee of the whole. The first bill called up was an appro- priation for a public building at Keokuk, Iowa, The bill provides for an imme- diate appropriation of $160,000. It was advocated by Mr. McCoid, (rep. Iowa) who presented the facts which in his judgment necessitated the erection of the building. Mr. Holman read from an article in the Burlington Gazette ridiculing the idea that the public business at Keokuk required the erection of thebuilding, and setting forth that this action would result in a logs to the government by & surren- der of leases, Mr, McLoid explained that the news- paper article was the outgrowth of a neighborhood quarrel, Alter six tedious votes by tellers, the bill was laid aside with a favorable pay & salary to the operator and to, Py him a commission not exceeding 60 per cent of the charges in messages trans- mitted from the office, The second re- quires the postmaster general to secure provisions in the contract which shall protect postal telegrams against discrimination in the order of transmission, in favor of telegrams re- ceived at such of the company's oftices as are not operated under the provisions of the bill, contract system remains the most promineut feature of the bill, and isnot Ihlal{ different from the scheme of the postal telegraph company,exocept it empowers the postmaster general to re- ceive bids from any telegraph company for contract, the provisions relating to the establishment of the government system pure and simple, in event of no satisfactory contract with established companies, is secured and are a combina- tion of the features of the Hill and Ed- wund’s bill, The eenate resumed consideration of recommendation, The next bill was one appropriating $100,000 for the erection ot & public building at Waco, Texas, This was bit- terly opposed. An amendment reducing the appropriation was lost, and then the bill was acted upon favoranly. The committee rose and reported the Keokuk and Waco bills to the house. Without action, the house took a recess till to-morrow at 11 o'clock. Alleged Crouch Murder Revelation.

Troasurer Eyster said yostorday that it was vory plain, unless the coinage should be stopped, that the new vaults will soon overflow, The annexed statement shows in detail just what the sub-treasuror would remove if the vaults were ready to-day: Standard silver dollars, $8,846,470; fra i coin, §3,645,600; gold coin, $3, minor coin, $334,280; gold cer 81,474 810; silver certificates, $680,330; United States and national bank notes, 4,187,130, Total assets, §28,373,318, TR 10WA ws. Half of Burmah's Great Capi- e Tho fifth building association has been established at Clinton. A new postoflice has boon established at Struble, Ida county. Oamilla Urso visited the oapitol build- ing at Des Moines last week. There wore forty-ona oars of cattle shipped from Sloan in March. The first boat of tho season left Du- buque for St. Louis on the lat. The Sac City Mothodists now go to hurch to tho musio of a now 820 pound oll. A travoling phrenological fraud was egged and hooted out of Sloan a few nights since. At Cedar Rapids the noisy small boy is hereaftor to be banished from the post- office lobby. Noar Cedar Rapids on the 1st the 9- yonr old son of Frank Cooley attempted to olimbunon a moving train, when he was run over and killed. A fiftoen-yoar-old muss of East Des Moines ran away from home last woek with a ‘‘peanuttor” on tho Wintorses division of the Rock Ialand. The tax collections in Monona county for Januai and Fabruary were $49,- 679.12, the largost iu the history of the county for the same length of time. LeMara Sentinel, 2: J. B. Close con- oluded negotiations her yesterday, by which Chicago parties take 2,600 acres of land near Kingsley for a consideration of $72,000. There seems to be a fatality of mal- orthography hovering about the name of Congressman McCoid, of the First Iowa district. A majonty of the newspapers outside the state, and a good many in the stato, persist in spelling it McCord, and the St Paul Globe puta it Mo- Quoit. There is a complaint in northern Cres- ton of the depredations of chicken thieves. In some instances they have stulen all the chickens in coops, and in others they seemed to be possessed with the quintessence of pure cussedness and chop the heads off of what they do not steal. When a Winterset girl wants her fel- low to go home she takes down her back hair. The Afton girls take off their shoes. Ottumwa girls say, *‘It's time for my dearest Augustus to unclasp his circling arms and hie away to his paternal domi- cile.” Creston giris are more practicul and less demonstrative; they simply say, “‘Sonny, time's up; git!"” Robert K. Hooper, foreman of the Central Towa round house at Marshall. town, was found dead near that city on the 1st, He had gone out hunting the day before, and not returning search was made for him. He had been struck by lightning, and everything indicated that he was instantly killed. He was 35 years 3! age, and leaves a wife and five chil. ren. A Des Moines watch thief became quite woll known to different business men throughout the city before he committed tho theft. He claimed to be the son of a Danish nobleman, and his finely cut features, together with the correctness and even elegance of his language, bore out, in a degree, his boast, He also fluently conversed in seven different languages. A Dubuque special says: The firat rip- ple of the flood that threatens to over- whelm the saloon-keepers of this city was seen to-day in a notification by landlords of several saloon-keepers that they must vacate the premises mow occupied by them, The latter held o mass meeting, but were unable to decide on a course of action. They will hold another meeting after the city election, when they hope in some way to avert the coming storm. In an Ottumwa saw mill on the 1st, as Aman was removing a board he allowed it to strike a swiftly moving circular saw when tho board was flung with great force and in its flight strack aa old nan named John Harris in the breaat, just sbove the collar bone, penetrating the chest about five inches, severing the jugular vein and almost severing the head, The force of contact was 0 violent that his lifeless body was hurled to the ground, fully feet from where he had boen mitting The doceased was about D years of age and loaves a wife and six children, November 30, 1879, John Norris was assassinated as he was going to his home from his store in Delhi, Deleware coenty. Several persons were arrested at tho time but subsequently released. Detectives were then put to work on the case. Cyrus Stover, a wealthy citizen of Delhi, Ed- ward Hughes, aud several others, were . | beater. of the second Hidinges~ died ina fiw houra, o — king Paper Pa Thero is & paperware factor¥ in Syra ouse, Now York, that is intende 4 to tarn out H0O paper pails per day. Tive Syra cuso Herald describes the process o' m ik ing them as follow: Rags and pep r waste are steamed in vats for a few hours and then thrown into beating troughte which are partly filled with water. The “beating” is done by a revolving cylinder with fifty knives sot at different angles, The knives reduce the rags tna dirty purple pulp and change the newspaper wrappers to a soft mass. About pounds of material are put under each When paper and rags are each reduced to pulp the opening of a trap lets it run into the stuf’ chest in the cellar. One part of rag pulp to three cf paper 18 run into the chest. When p from the stuff chest i the winding machine the pail looks like thin water gruel, A hollow cylinder covered with brass wire splashes around in the trough and the pu ings fast to the wire. After the cylinder has performed a half revo- tion it comes in contact with another cgl\nde{. m',:re?.h witll::;lt, ‘hl:l:d takes off the pulp. As the © cylinder goes down on the return trip, and just before dipping into the trough again, all little partioles of pulp sticking to the wire are washed off by streams of water from a sieyo. On the inside of the cylinder is & fan-pump that ~discharges the waste liquid. From the felt-covered cylinder the pulp is payed on to the forming cylin- inder, so-called. It is about the lev of the paper-cone caps worn by bakers and ocooks, but made of solid wood and covered with zinc with tho small end, or bottom part of the pail, toward the workman. The forming roll drops antomaticall; when pulp of the rmlmred thickness 1s wound around it. Krom here the now promising pail is put in the pressing chine, which lunE- sowething like hat block, in six sections, with perforated brass wire upper faces. The sections move from and to a common centre, and the frame is the exact size of the pail wanted. The workman dropped his damp skeleton of a pail into the frame, touched a lever, and the sections moved to their centre and squeezod the moisture out of th ‘sul . The pail is still & little damp, and spends a fow hours in the drying room at a temperature of about 160°, The sections of the pressing machine mark the bands which are seen on the finished pail. After it is dry the pail is ironed, or calendered, as it is called. The pail is drawn, like a glove, over a ateel forming roll, which is heated, and is ironed by another revolving ealen- der, with steam thrown on the pail to keop it moist, asif it were a shirt bosom. The pail, or rather ita frame, is pared at each end, punched with four holes to fasten on the handle, and corrngated, or channeled, for the putting on of the iron hoops. A wooden plate, large enough to spring the poil so that the bottom can be- ut in, is wserted and the paper bottom eld under o weight which drops and knocks the bottom where it elongs. The hoops are then put on. The factory has a machine of its own invention for the bending of the hoop into- shape, After it has been cut to the pro- per length and width the straight strip.of iron is run over a semi-circular edge of steel, on which it is tirmly held, and drops on the floor a round hoop with a fold in the middle to cath the wop and bottom eages of the pail. After a waterproof composition is put on, the pail is baked in a kiln for about foriy-eight hours at a temperature « f between 200 and 300 de- grees. It is dried after 1ts first cont of paint and sw:dpapered, and then takes two more costs of paint, with a drying between, and a coat of varnish which is baked on, before—with its wooden han- arrested. Btrong circumstantial evi- dence was obtained and the men indicted by the grand jury. The trial was be- gun last week and ended in the acquittal of all tho, partics, The feeling aguinst the prosécution is very bitter, as itis claimed that the arrest of Stover was malicious. 1t is likely that the matter will go before the grand jury. The trial of Robert Perigo, at Corning, for the murder of John Hidinger, farm- ers and neighbors, has just closed, Perige was found guilty of murder i the second degree, Perigo claimed the own- ership of a dog in the possession of Hidinger, and sent his son one Sabbath morning after the dog, Hidinger refused to let the bay have the dog, The morn- ing tollowing, Monday, Perigo went after the dog, and found Hiding, his hired man and the dog in the field. Perigo took a rope from pooket and put it around the dog's neck, and started off. Midinger and the hired man followed Perigo, who was leading the dog off, demanding that he let the do, loose. This Perigo refused to do, an gry words were exchanged without limit, Porigo being very abusive in his d, and Perigo a loaded revolver After Perigo retreated about crossing the fence Hidinger gave him / { dle and brass clamps—the pail is ready for the hand of the dairy maid, hostler or ocovk. The advocates of paper pails claim that they are lighter, cheaper and more durable than those of tin or wood. o —— A Ohinese Failure. Wall Stroet Nows. ‘When a native of China doing business goes to the wall, a mandarin investigates his affairs, and the result 1s usually about as follows: “I find that your housshold expenses have been eight cents por day.” “‘Alas! oh mighty Mandarin, I have an extravagant family,” *Your rent has been sixty cents per month. How dare you incur such ex- pense on your small capital?” “I was in hopes times would improve.'” “‘And I find ameng your items of ex- pense such things as opera tickets, oys- ters for Sunday, and smoking tobacco for your grandmother. No wonder you have to shut up shop and cause your creditors to mourn.” “0h, mighty Mandarin, thow mercy to an hones* but unfortunate man.” “Qall yourself honest, when you with- draw 70 centa of your capital to buy your wife a party dress? Come to tho tewple of justice,” h) At the temple the creditors divide up the assets, and eachone is then privileged to use & whip on the debtor's bare back until he thinks he has got 100 cents on the dollar.
