4 WITH OSIC, GREERS AND GATGALLS, g PASSAGE INTO HISTORY OF THE FIFTY-THIRD CON- GRESS. PRESIDING OFFICERS PRAISED Porrtics Hous LAD AsibE v Born S AND A Love FEasT ENJoYED. WASHINGTON, March 4.—At noon to-day, aftera continuous session of forty-eight hours, interrupted by an occasional recess, the flags above the Capitol were lowered and the Fufty-third Congress had passed into history. In the House the end was not marked or marred by any unpleasant incident. All the appropriation bills were out of the way n the House convened lock this morning. The time was dwindled away until 11 o’clock, the only feature being a rather brisk debate on the ts to follow from the projected mone- tary conference. The usual committee was sent to the President to inform him that Congress was ready to adjourn and the other formalities of the end of & Congress were gone through with. The concluding minutes were in the nature of a love feast. The best of feeling prevailed. The resolu- tion of thanks to the Speaker which came from the minority w offered to-day by Cannon in a very graceful speech, bearing testimony to the high appreciation in which the presiding officer was held by the Republican minority. Wilson of West Virginia responded on behalf of the majority, and Simpson of Kansas, representing the Populists, joined in the expres: of thanks for the cour- tesies and 1 extended by the Speaker. All the kindly sentiments were applanded, and when Crisp himself as cended the rostrum to return thanks and deliver his parting words the demonstra- tion was terrific. At the conclusion of his speech, just before declaring the House ad- journed, he appointed Culberson of Texas, Hitt of Illinois and himself as members of the monetary commission. Hisown ap- pointment was by resolution. As the Fifty-third Congress came to an end the doxology was sung by the corre- spondents in the press gallery. At8o’clock this morning when the House vened in its final ion after a four-hour eleven members on aker was at his post. All d and worn out.

The Speaker appointed Rusk of Maryland, Meredith of Virginia aud Coffin of Maryland on the Committee of Accounts, to serve during the recess. The committee appointed to wait on the President, with Catchings as spokesmen, then sppeared and informed the Speaker that the President had no further communication to make to Congress. At the conclusion of the love feast, when the resolution complimenting Speaker Crisp was passed and all the nice things said, the end came. The hands of the clock pointed to 12 o'clock. “I now declare the third session of the Fifty-third Congress,” said the dpeaker, u“gdjourned without day.” The silver mace was lifted from its malachite pedestal, the flag above the House was low- ered, and amid cheers and catcalls from the galleries a rush was made for the doors. But from the press gallery came the sound of music. The newspaper correspondents were singing the doxology, “Praise God from whom all blessings- flow.” The spectators paused to listen and applaud and then, as the chorus ceased, pushed out and ina few minutes the hall was deserted. CLOSING HOURS IN THE SENATE. Crowded Geallervies and the Uswal Con- gratulatory Resolutions. WasHiNgToN, March 4.—At noon to-day the United States Senate closed its final session of the Fifty-third jCongress amid crowded galleries, congratulatory resolu- tions, a parting word from President Cleveland and a brief valedictory from the Vice-President. The wonted dignity of the Senate was preserved to the end, except for the rush of business incident to the last hours of a sessio; The Senators were at work by 9 o'clock, .after having remained in the chamber until 4 A. 3. They clearly showed -ue of the Jong session lasting from noon and their ranks were too thin up to 11 o’ciock for the u'a_hsaction of anything beyond formal busines By shat time there were few vacant seats on she floor of the Senate and the galleries THE SAN FRANCI CO CALL, TUESDAY, MARCH 5, 1895 | compensation were literally packed, the crowds filling the Senate, pushing into the aisles an'd overflowing in long lines down the "orri- dors and stairways. Many members of the diplomatic corps occupied the gallery reserved for them. By 10 o’clock the last formalities on the two remaining appropriation bills—naval and deficiency—were concluded, and the meas- ures started to the executive mansion. There was no disposition to take up new business and two efforts to consider ques- tions affecting the Bering Sea were cut off by objections. A feature of the last moments of the session was the tumultuous laughter that greeted the announcement of Voorhees of the committee to wait on the President that the latter tendered his congratulations to Congress on the close of their labors. Vice-President Stevenson closed the ses sion with a few well-chosen words, as he stated the work of the Fifty-third Con- gress passed into histo: Cockrell, who as chairman of the Appro- priations Committee has borne a large part of the burden of the 48 hours of continuous struggle on the appropriation bills, was among the iate arrivals. At 9:10, when the Senate proceedings were resumed, the Vice-President announced his signature to the naval appro- priation bill. It was the last formality before the taking of the last important measure to the President. At 9:40 the Vice-President announced his signature to the deficiency bill. This was the lest of the appropriation bills, and thus all of the great measures for the cerryingon of the Government were either at the executive man- sion or on their way there. Little was done, unanimous consent having been given to con- fine the business to conference agreements. Then the Senators lapsed into inaction, wait- ing for the concluding hour to arrive. At 10:15 Voorhees offered & resolution, which was adopted, for the appointment of & joint committee of the two houses to wait upon the President of the United States and inform him that Congress, having completed its business, was ready to adjourn. The Vice-President named Voorhees and Sherman as the Senate members of the committee. Morrill of Vermont here presented a graceful compliment to the Vice-President, who had temporarily left the chair, in the form ofa resolution thanking m for the ability, dig- nity and impartiality with which he had ad- ministered the duties of presiding officer. There was a loud and unanimous adoption of the resolution. At 11:40 a joint resolution was passed as to to employes. A messenger dashed away with it in & race to get to the White House and secure the President’s signa- ture within twenty minutes. The thanks of the Senate were expressed in & resolution offered Manderson for the cour- tesy and impartiali served as President pro tem. of the Senate. Harris then took the chair and returned his thanks for the flattering resolution. At 12 minutes to 12 o’clock the last enrolled bill was reported to the Senate as signed by the Vice-President, but it seemed impossible to get the executive signature in time. Call vehemently insisted on & final vote on his Florida resolution. Aldrich declared that & special committee, if appointed, will be for a political purpose alone. He moved an amend- ment that the Committee on Judiciary make the investigation. Call excitedly denounced the statement of Aldrich concerning the politi- cal purposes of the inquiry. At this moment Voorhees and Sherman, the Senate committee to waiton the President, appeared at the door and announced that the President had no inrther communication to make. The Vice-President announced Senators Cockrell, Davis, Daniel, Gordon, Quay and Sherman ds the members of the committee to take part in the dedication of the Chickamauga military park. The Vice-President rose as the clock pointed to two minutes to 12 for a part- ing word to the Senate. He said: “Senators, the hour has arrived, fixed by law, for the termination of this Congress. For the courtesy uniformly extended me and the reso- lutions just adopted my gratitude cannot be measured by words. I would do violence to my feelings if I failed to express my thanks to the ofticers of this body for the fidelity with which they have discharged their important duties and for their assistance and courtesy to the presiding officer. It only remains to make the official announcement that the Senate stands adjourned without day.” As the last words were spoken by the Vice- President, being timed to conclude at 12, he brought his gavel down sharply and declared the session at an end. There was no demon- stration and no applause. Senators began bid- ding their adieus. The appearance of the chamber and the weary looks of worn-out Sen- ators were evidence that the end had come. Way are users of Dr. Price’s Baking Powder like Oliver Twist? They like it so well they always cry for more. CALIFORNIANS DISGUSTED, NOTHING GAINED FOR THE COAST BY THE RECENT CON- GRESS.

Scott, as it is not sure by any means that he will get one of the con- tracts. English is disgruntled, too, because after repeated efforts he failed to get recognition for Oakland’s postoffice bill. The naval | bill, as passed, also eliminates §250,000 for the Hartford, as well as a provision requir- ing one of the torpedo-boats to be built at Mare Island. Bowers was knocked out on his bill to provide mountain-stream motive power for Southern California electric lighting. Caminetti was defeated in his attempt to pass the mineral land classification bill. Geary is sore over the failure of the Nica- ragua bill, and Senator Perkins because the Hawaiian cable amendment was defeated. Senator White also met with a failure to- day in his attempt to have the Commerce Committee of the Senate go to San Pedro and Santa Monica to investigatc their re- spective merits for a deep-water harbor. The Senate refused this, but White says some individual members may go anyhow in May. The only thoroughly contented man in the California delegation is Ma- guire, who gloats over his defeat of Hunt- ington and his lobby. Senator Perkins left for hcme to-night. White goes to-morrow. Of the Represen- tatives Bowers left to-day, Geary goes to- morrow, Maguire, English and Caminetti will remain here for several days yet.

A long list of | opinions was disposed of rapidly. Many of them decided cases of great importance. The interesting question whether the | conviction of a person by means of a de- coy letter is legal was passed upon in the case of one Grimme, convicted in Missouri for dealing in obscene pictures. He an- swered a letter from the Postoffice In- spector which resulted in his conviction, and he appealed, complaining against the means by which it was secured. The court held that decoy letters were both | morally and legally justifiable. | The decision of the Circuit Court for the MISS ANNA GOULD. |From her latest photograph, taken about two weeks ago and drawn for the New York * World.'} COUNT P. AUL DE CASTELLANE. [Reproduced from the New York “Herald’s” drawing of the Count’s latest photograph.] in the southwest corner of the mansion. The bridal procession formed in the library, floor immediately over the East India room, where the presents of the bride and groom were afterward exhibited. The guests received the first information of the formation of the bridal party by music issuing from an orchestra concealed in the hall behind a bank of palms and ferns. The number given was the ‘‘Largo” of Handel | by an orchestra and an organ, and “Elsa's Dream” from *‘Lohengrin,"which was sung by ‘Rosa Sucher, the operatic soprano, to the accompaniment of the string orches- tra. This was followed by the bridal march from Lohengrin, and the assembled guests witnessed the bridal procession descending the flower-adorned stairsin the following order: First came the ushers, Prince del Drago, Raoul Duval,Brockholst Cutting and How- ard Gould. They were followed by the bridesmaids, Miss Beatrice Richardson, Miss Adelaide Montgomery, Miss Catherine Cameron and Miss Helen Gould. The bride then followed, leaning on the arm of her brother, George J. Gould, her train be- ing carried by her nephews, Masters Kir don and Jay Gould. They entered the music-room and passed into the East India room, walking slowly up the aisles, which had becn made by running parallel white ribbons fastened to bushes of flower- ing roses. When they reached the dais at the Fifth-avenue end of the room the music stopped. The ushers stood to each side and the bridesmaids stood before the ushers. Here, awaiting the approach of his bride, stood the bridegroom attended by his brother, the Count Jean de Castel- lane, while on the dais stood Archbishop Corrigan, wearing his ecclesiastical robes. Mr. Gould placed his sister’s hand in Count de Castellane’s hand and withdrew to the left, where his wife and her two little sons stood. The ceremony was abridged by the fact that the bride has not, as has been fre- quently stated, surrendered her own re- ligious faith. When the time came for the bride to have placed upon her finger the wedding ring, she handed her large and beautiful bouquet of lilies of the valley to her sister, Miss Helen Gould, who stood on her immediate right. The “Ave Maria” was sung by Rosa Sucher, stationed at the footof the stairsin the large hall, her rich glorious voice blend- ing with the strains of the orchestra. After the benediction had been spoken, Mendelssohn’s “Wedding March” was rendered, and the bride received the gooa wishes of the Archbishop and the two officiating priests, which were followed im- mediately by those of her sister, Miss Helen Gould, and her brother. The Count, radiant and happy, led his wife into the alcove where, under a showering mass of lities of the valley, they stood ready to re- ceive the congratulation of their friends. Immediately the flowering plants, which had served as posts for the ribbons form- ing the aisle, were removed, and in a short time after the doors of the dining-room were thrown wide open and a number of small tables were brought into the room and placed abonut it, where the guests seated themselves to enjoy a delicious breakfast. Asall space was essential, the house being of moderate capacity, the orchestra was moved to the gallery on the third floor, and for an hour or more dis- coursed a programme of varied music, At 2:30 p. . the bride, attired in her traveling dress, passed through the hall crowded with friends anxiousto bid her farewell.

The bride’s wedd gown was a heavy ivory satin duchess " tastefully trimmed with . point d’Angleterre lace, which was twelve inches wide and of rare and beauti- ful pattern. The skirt fits very tight over the hips and flares out at the bottom. The train is round and isabout three yards in length. The gown lined throughout with heavy ivory silk, fashioned at the bot- tom with three full ruffles of full lace. These ruffles are trimmed with bows of satin ribbons. Point d’Angleterre lace forms back of the right shoulder. It then crosses empire belt, which is made of satin. At the bottom of the belt the drapery begins again and is extended over the leit side like a jabot, and is carried around the looped and fastened by small bunches of real orange blossoms. The sleeves are cut in the latest fashion, the top of the sleevi bemng very full and the under part ve tight. The sleeves buttoned very closely over the wrist. The collar was a Henry IV and at the top rolled over, displaying facing which was of point d’Angleterre. The bodice of the gown is fastened at the back under a roll of satin and two bows of lace. The bridal veil was rare old lace pre- sented to the bride by the Marquise de Cas- tellane, and was fastened at the crown of the head with a bunch of orange blossoms. The petticoat worn with the gown was made of heavy ivory moire silk of the same beautiful tint as the dress, and trimmed with three flounces of real lace headed with little butterfly bows and narrow satin rib- bons about six inches apart. CIVIL MARRIAGE DEMANDED. The Count and Countess Wedded a Second Time. New York, March 4.--The World to-' morrow will say: No arrangements seem to have been made for the civil wedding previous to yesterday. In fact, it had been decided not to have a civil ceremony until nearly two hours after the religious serv- ices had been concluded by Archbishop Corrigan. At 2 p. M. George Gould telephoned to his attorney, Julien T. Davies, saying in effect: “We have decided to have a civil marriage. Go immediately to the Court- house and ask a Judge to come up pre- pared to perform a marriage ceremony.” This message caused great excitement in the law office. It was decided to ask Judge Miles Beach of the Court of Common Pleas, but the Judge was *holding court and said it was out of the question for him to leave. Justice Andrews finally consented, and leaving the bench was driven rapidly to the Gould home. When he arrived it was 3:30 o’clock, and the wedding party was in a state of excitement for fear the have a civil marriage might fall t Maxny Emn 0 rough. of the guests had gone. ustice Andrews’ squestinn those ing went upstairs to the sitting-room on the second floor, and there in the center of the room the simple ceremony which declared the two man and wife a second time was performed.

By Cleveland’s Signature All the Bills Passed Become Laws. 3 ‘Wasnixeroy, March 4.—All the appro- priation bills have become laws, the Presi- dent having fixed his signature to the last of them to reach him—naval and general deficiency bills. Among the bills approved by the President to-day were the following: The agricultural appropriation bill; the for- tifications appropriation; invalid pension bill; to authorize the Wisconsin and new Duluth Bridge Company to construct a bridge across the St. Louis River between Wisconsin and Minnesota; suthorizing the construction of a bridge across the Illinois River near Hennepin; many bills granting pensions or to increase present pensions; increasing to $100 the pen- sion to General John A.

Why the Grip Xs So Much More Feared Than Many Other Diseases That Affoct Us. If the grip would run its course like another disease and then go aweay, leaving no trace be- hind, it would still be dangerous enough to ]nsllga all tho precautions against it. But the evil that grip does lives after it. People who can’t digest their food and complain of cold hands and feet, or of shattered nerves, or are tormented by & persistent cough, say: . “I have never been well since I had the grip. The reason issimple enough, There has been force during the an immense drain of vital battle with the disease, and this loss has never been made good. Thus the weakened body, like & town without fortifications, is open 0 the enemy. A second attack of grip is, for this reason, more serious than the first. How shall *the harmful consequence of the first battle be remedied, and how shall & second siege be pre- vented? Here is the answer: “My lungs have been weak for four months after a severe attack of the grip,” says Mrs. Hague of Bridgeport, Pa. “Three weeks ago I began using Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey, and can highly recommend it. Iwish I had tried it sooner.” G For the benefit of people who like to_kiow the why and wherefore, it should be said that Daffy’s Pure MaltWhiskey is & medicinal stimu- lant, which stirs all the functions of the body to such brisk and healthy action that the grip can find no weak spot to seize upon. Hard work, anxiety and exposure drag down the most vigorous constitutions. It is only & question of time, unless the strength be sus- | tained by a stimulant that goes to help the respiratory, digestive and excretory organs, Because Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey does this it has robbed the dreaded grip of its terrors. Please remember, though, that a remedy used promptly is doubled in value.
