Touse Will Hold n Can- Relteve the dnces Wasnisaros, July 16.—[Special Tolegram to Tne Ber]—A caucus of the domocratic members of the house oi representatives will be held on Saturday, August 5, to elect the officers of the Fifty-third congross. A lively fight is expected over the doorkeeper- ship and that of sergeant-at-arms. The soveral candidates are even now priming their arms. Houry Hurt of Mississippi, who held the doorkeepership during the Fiftieth congress and who is now connocted with the agricultural section of the World's fair, is tho latest candidate to enter the lst for the doorkeepership of the next house. Mr. Smith of Texes, the present superintendent of the document room, and “Ieeman” Turner of New York, who now holds the office, are pitted against the Mis- sissippian, Smith Has Plenty of Triends. Smith of Texas has strong backing, not only among the western members, but the represeutatives of the southern states, as well, are said to strongly endocse him. = He has also many friends among the delcgations from the eastern states, “Ieeman® Turncr has, it is understood, the solid backing of Tammany, whose influence was of sufticient strength in the caucus held two years ago to nominate him for door- keepor. Mr, Turner, it is thought, will not be able to sccure the unanimous support of the New York delegation, as several are said to be pledged to Smith. The situation as regards the office sergeant-at-arms remains unchanged. Tho fight for this ofice 1 be- tween General & S, Yoder, the present incumbent, and Samuel E, Johnston, a correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer. General Yoder is putting up a stiff fight, but he is finding some difficulty in explaining hi failure to keep certain promises, wich he is said to have made prior to his recent elec- tion. M: of the Ohio members have left him for this and other reasons and are sup- porting Mr. Johnston, who now cluims to have a majority of the delegation from that state pledged to him. It has been under- stood all through the fight that whoever got the majority would receive the entire vote of the delegation. 1t Mr. Johnston's claims are well founded, theve- fore General Yoder would appear to have been knocked out, for without the support of his own state he would cut but a poor figure in the caucus. Withdrew from the Race. x-Representative Snow of Illinois, who was entered for the position of sergeant-at- arms by his friends, has withdrawn, lea: ing the fight to be fought to a tinish by the two Buckeyes. The present clerk of the house, James C. Kerr of Penns: will have no opjos tion and will be re-elected. P. S H. of AN-AMERICAN RAILROAD, ‘What 1s Belng Done on the Great North and South System. WasniNatoy, July 16.—The International Railway commission, which was one of the outgrowths of the late pan-American con- gress, is now eugaged in winding up the work it has boen pursuing for the past two ) ana the engineers and survoyors who have been in tho fleld are now preparing their reports and reducing their field notes to the shape of maps and charts. The com- missiou was appointed for the purpose of sccuring surveys of suitavblo lines for a railway system which should couneet tho uorthern and southern hemispheres with cach other and form a continuous line of railroad from the Umted States through the American republies of the south. As, in the case of the Buroan of Americin Republics, each country inter- ested pays its share of the expense n pro- portion to population. Congress last year failed to make any appropriation for” tho continuance of the work on the part of the United States, and it will require the great- est economy for the commission with the funds on hand to be ablo to close up its work and perfect its reports, which will soon be open for the use of capitalists who may seck to profit by these government, sccuritios and build the railronds that are contempiated. The field work was pursued by three par- tics, one in Central America and two in South America. That in Central America was under charge of M. M. Macomb, wh surveyed a line from the southern boundar of Mexico through 5 Honduras, N Savagre river. to the United States, arriving July 8, and is now at work upon the reduction of its field notes and the proparation of maps and charts, Corps No. 2. under the comand of Mr. William F. Shunk, started in at Quito, Ecuador, aud surveyed a line through the dif- ficult Andean region as far as Cartagena, on the Caribbean sca; also a line from the Sav- agre river.in Costa Rica, through Panama and theisthmus to the neighborhood of Antioquia, in_Colombia, where it connected with the other line from the isthmus to Certagena. Mr. Shunk’s party returned to the United States in June and was also engagod in riting up its final report and preparing its maps, The vemaining corps was under the direc- tion of Mr. William D, Kelley, who sur- ed a line from Quito, Keuador, to Cuzeo, Peru. The mavs of this last party are nearly completed and its reports, coveriug the sur- veys, aro now in preparation. Of the whole work it may be said that the reports of the field engincers demonstrate the feasibility of building these railroads to connect the systams of North America with those of South America and that there are no_insur- mountable engincering difficulties in the way of a successful prosecution of such work. The whole nuwber of miles suryoyed aggro- gate 4,500, Iv is expected that all the reports will bo made to congress some time this winter. Work of the Special Examination Divislon ot the Bureau of nsions, WASHINGTON, July 16,—The special exami- nation division of the bureau of pensions, which is charged with the investigation of criminal matters in pension claims, as woll as the iuvestigation of the merit of claims in which o prima facie case has been estab- lished before roference to that division, has kept & rocord since May 1 of the amount in- volved in final payment of every case re- jected after special Investigation. Thi rocord shows that for the months of May aud June last in these prima fucie cases, which would have been allowed had thoy mot been specially investigated, the first payment would bave amounted to §150,- 279, A great many cases investigated were found to possess merit and were allowed ; but of the number investigated and rojocted 4 saving to the government of the above amount has resulted. The expenses of the special examination division for the months of May and June last in the investizgation of prima facie merit claims and all other matters pertaining to the work of the division amounted to §36,859, leaving a net saviug to the government of §113,88. To this amount may be added §,504, which was recovered in cash by special examiners and covered into the strcasury, making o total net saving to the government of $116,585, DEVELOPED AN ENOERMOUS TAIL. Hesalt of Kecent Observatlons of the Latost Comet in Sight. Wasuinaroy, July 16.—At 12:30 last night the comet which has been the object of so much search suddenly developed an enor- mous tail, which, to the unpracticed eye, was taken o be 4 display of the aurora borealis. At that hour Prof. Frisby of the Naval ob- servatory, was studying the comet through the nine-inch glass. He noticed a long streak of greenish white light shoot out from the comet and extend itself almost Lo the zeuith Avfirst tke pucleus of the vowet, beiug at that moment hidden by a fleecy cloud, it was thought that t urora borealis had sent out an mh'l\m'n'ib co of a brilliant engago- mont, but as thdve tvas no flickering and as the light came steadily from where the comot haa last bevfrseen, the professor con- cluded that he was goeing the comet in pro- cess of developmeenl. The tail ot the comet was 303 in length, a distanced About sixty times as long as the moon Is wide, ana extended from 10= above the horizon almost to the zenith, Tt was filhinly visible to the naked eye and broke forth some time before the corps of observers, Prof. Frisby said: ‘‘There is no way to explain the suddgn freak of the comet. They are erratic bodies at best, and the only thing tosay is that thistne had reached a stage whore it was ready to throw out the long stroak of luminous gas which we call the tail. Tt was not a bushy tail, but was a long ribbon of light about three times as wido as the moon." Westorn Original ensions, widows, etc. Linn, Towa: Original widows, otc.—Susan M Byrnes.

When the troops appeared all the lepers surrend- ered except the murderer of Marshal Stoltz and several others, who have taken refuge in the mountains and declare they will not be taken. Among those are two women and A child. 1tis thought they will escape over 4 secret trail and go to another island or, failing in this, that they will commit suiride. Among those who surrendered only two were well. One was o year-old baby and the other a woman who said she was going with her husband, How strong superstition is oven among educatod natives is shown by the praying match which is going on at tho Lataina seminary over & half white woman, the wifo of Charles Biake, one of the teachers. This woman incurred the enmity of a kahuna, or witch doctor, who proceeded to pray to her death. When the woman learned of thisshe was stricken with mortal foar and took to her bed. It appeared she would die, but her husband engaged another kahuna to coun- teract the first doctor’s wiles. The match is watched with great interest by the natives, but the seminary authorities are disgusted that Christianity has obtained so littlo hold over theso Kanakas. Breaks Up Royallat Plans, The examination of the conspiracy cases resulted in the di. arge of Crick on July 3, and the committal of Walker and Sinclair for trial. The head of the police consider the royalist plans to be substantilly broken up as a result of the trial. Walker appear to have been the act military loader of the conspiracy. He is a British subject and served under Custer. He is a daring man. nited States Minister Blount is impa- tient for the appointment of his successor. whose arrival will set him free to carry home his report. At a shooting match on July 4 it was ob- served that Prmec David and Tom Cum- mings used rifles and cartridges of Japanese make. As none such have ever passed the custom house it is likely they were presents from the Japaneso naval officers. Since, however, there was a great stir last April about the rumored lauding of rifles for royal- ist use from the Japanese cruiser niwa, the police are pursuing inquiries into the matter. President Dole says that their re- lations with Japan are extremely friendly and that a strong disposition to support th provisional goverament has been expressed by Japan. .

Whether it is a wedding ora funeral all services are conducted publicly in the ranks of the Salvation army in accordance with its own veculiar customs. At the barracks yesterday the funeral ceremonies over the remains of a 7-months- old child of members of the army wero in charge of Major French. The casket con- taining the little body was brought from the parents’ house early in the morning and placed in the barracks by the undertaker. By 9o'clock a large congregation of mem- bers and some curiously inclined persons had gathered to witness the last rites to be per- formed. Promptly at that hour Major and Mrs. French, accompanied by other ofticers of the followers of Booth, stepped onto the plat- form. The services wero opencd with sin ing after which Mrs. French read a chapt from Revelation. A short address was made by tho major on what death means o Chris- tion and ending with words of sympathy and consolation to the bereaved father and mother. After more singing all present were given an op{mrtuuuy t0 view the re- mains in front of the platform. Four young lady cadots, now in tralning by the ofticers and dressod in the regulation un- iform with white sashes, thercupon tenderly raised the casket aud bore it outside, where 4 parade was formed with the parents fol- lowing immediately behind the romains and about soventy members falling into line. The flags were unfurled and to the tune of mufiled_drums the procession started to- wards South Omaha, where the body was Inid to rost. AU the' Sixteeuth stroet via- duct carriages wore taken by all those who desired to soo the last resting place. Beforo the body was finally lowered it the grave short services were agaiu conducted by the head of the army here. e WEATHER FOKECASTS, Falr, Proceded by Local Showers Is the Prediot for Nobraska Today.

RESTING OVER A VOLCANO Paris Authorities Feel the Working of Dan- gerous Foroes Beneath, PEACE CONSIDERED ONLY TEMPORARY Cannille of the Capital Only Waiting for an Excuse to Break Out Again Fiercor Than Before-Cause May Come Soon, Pants, July 16.—The French republic has by no mrans outgrown the period when hot weather is a distinct menace to public au- thority, The present season, like a baby's second summer, has been awaited with con siderablo anxicty., Last week the tempera- ture was above ninety daily and blood was shed quite freoly by oficial sabers. The weapons of the mob this weok have boen cooled with frequent April showers, and the city has been calm {and abnormally quiet, oven on the greatest national foto day. Per- haps a good weather prophet could bost fore- cast the recurrenco of the mob spirit during the next few weeks. That it will recur is the general belief of most people in 1 The principal officers ot the police all say the greatest dangors of summer are yet to come. Although thore was undoubtedly rash brutality on the part of the police last week, 1t must be admitted that tho riots were handled with remarkablo skill and forboar- ance. The revolt would have been stamped out at first appearance by o few rounds of ball cartridges, except that the radicals wore secking to raise the ery of oppression and tyr against the governmentfor uext month’s elections. Tho force used was only suflicient to prevent the mob from gain- ing the mastery. That the police suffored much more than is supposcd is shown by the fact that 185 men aro still disabled by wounds received in last week's riots. When the government massed its army ol 60,000 in Paris the malcontents wiscly de cided to disappear till this force was with drawn. There must be some excuse before the violence is renewed. The most trifling incident may bo seized upon and the various elements of disorder will again unite. The goneral national strike which the socialst and labor party will probably order cannot possibly obtain the magnitude of the similar movement in Belgium last spring. “The pop- ular unrest and political discontent in France is by no_means so_decp rooted and aggres- sive as in the Belgium monarchy Anything May Start the Riot, Tt is impossible, however, to indieato to what extremes a sudden attack of midsum- mer night madness might lead. The strik if undertaken, will have the greatest in the mines and elsewhere in the provinces, where the socialist movement is very strong. but where the leaders probably control the votes of their followers it is not believed they can persuade them in great numbe abaudon work under the existing provo tions. “The political phase of the situation contin- tinues interesting. 1t is plaioly apparent that M.

Parading the Siamese Imbrogho, Some indications that the acute phase of the Siamese imbroglio is used by the gov- ernment to dis:ract attention from home a fairs is that the disavowal of the attack of the gunboats is received with somo susy cion. 'The only reason that such a high- handed outrage 1s rogarded with tolerance by the French people is that it is considered by the anglophobists as an _intended blow against ngland, The chief secrots foroign affairs this afternoon gave qui different yersion of the gunboat affair to that horetofore current, which he explained came from English sources.

VIENNA, July 16.—Among other effects pro- duced by the depreciation of silver is a threatoned disturbance of the labor market in this country. According to accounts from Prague it is anticipated that the silver mines at Przibram will shortly be closed, ana even now the question is being considered as 1o what new industry could be most expedi- tiously and easily introduced to provide work for miners when thrown out of employment. It appears that the governmont intends to continue work exclusively in the state mines at Siebenburgen, which yield the largest percentage of silver. “‘Agitation still continues among the work- ing classes in Bohomia, and either through tho action of the authorities in forbidding meetings there which are allowed olso- where, or owing to the more violent dencles of the povulation, there appears Lo be a decided disuclination w submit Lo ofti- cinl control. Thus the workers at Lieben in Bohemin attempted to hold a secret meet- ing notwithstanding the prohibition of the suthorities. The police, having become aware of the fact, succesded, with the as- sistance of & detachment of ‘military sum- mpned from a uefghboring town, in clearing ufo promises, st the same time arresting over eighty persons who had refused to dis- perse.

Ke- ferring to the results of the elections in Germany, he pointed out that universal suffrage had led to o great extension of soclal democracy, which, in addition to certaln legiimate demands, put forward others dangerous both to the state and so- ciety. And who, he asked, has beon most successful in stemming the current of social democracy ; who elso but the Christian so- cialists, who represented the solidarity of all classes!( Another speaker, & member of tho Reichsrath, in answer to's question as to his views on universal suffrage, declared himself to be in favor of its introduction, maintaining at the same time that the ideal aud just electoral systom would bo a fran- chise providing for the representation of tho various trades and professions in the community.
