The Capital Gossips Have It That a New Face “’ill Soon Be Seen In the President’s Official Family—Hen- derson and Cannon at Odds. WASHINGTON, March 11.—This city is pretty thoroughly deserted just now by statesmen, both in and out of jobs. The departure of the president on his duck hunting campaign and of several of the cabinet officers, who are also in search of rest and recreation, has had the effect of driving home a good many of the defeated members of the late congress, who had planned to remain in the capital for a few weeks on the lookout for some sort of a government berth. Those of the congressmen who have been re-electcd and have no further anxiety on that score, have as usual hurried home, and they have been reluctantly followed by most of the “cuts.” The latter promise to return as soon as President Cleveland gets back from the duck marshes,»how- ever, and a determined onslaught upon the 'chief magistrate by the place hunters is sure to occur as soon as he shows himself in Washington again. . Indeed, the president’s hunting trip is said to have. been taken largely for the purpose of keeping out of the way of the applicants for government employment. Mr. Cleveland always attends to all the details of his office himself, and the im- mense amount of work imposed upon him by the tremendous rush of the last few days of the session left him in such a worn- out condition that his doctors insisted upon hurrying him out of the city. They told him that if he remained at his desk and exposed himself to the importunities of the oflice seekers it would only be a few days before his system would be utterly broken down and he would find himself confined to his bed. The president was doubtless very glad to listen to this advice, which nevertheless seems to have been dic- tated by the necessities of the situation. . The \Vhite House. Flag. The army and navy officials have suc~ ceeded in persuading the president to consent to an innovation with regard to the flying of the stars and stripes upon the White House. Ever since the executive mansion was rebuilt, after its occupation by British troops in 1812, the American flag has floated above it every day of the year. The delicate military sensibilities of the army men have been deeply outraged by the sight 'of the flag flying over .the headquarters of the commander in chief of the army and navy when he was absent from Washington, and they have induced Mr. Cleveland to rule that the stars and stripes shall only be displayed over the White House when he is in the capital. The appropriation committee’s rooms in the capitol are the busiest places in Wash- ington just at present. A large force of clerks is hard at work upon the big appro- priation bills which were hurried through at the close of the session and. making up accounts of the sums raised by the defunct congress for the purposes of the govern- ment. In the hurry and bustle of the last days of the session the bills were rushed through and signed without any one having a clear idea of just what changes wore made or just what sums had actually been appro- priated. A great many inquiries are being made as to the aggregate of the Fifty-third congress appropriations, but the sum total cannot be given out until the clerks have gone through with the bills. A Curious Contest. A curious contest has already broken out over the chairmanship of the commit- tee on appropriations in the next house. It has manifested itself in an intense rival- ry between General Henderson. the one legged soldier of Iowa, and Mr. Cannon of Illinois. It is customary at the close of They’re Complete- ly Disguiseol——all of Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets—with a sugar-coating which surrounds their concentrated vege- table extracts. You do not get the taste. This means more than com- fort. The ofiensive taste of oils, or of bitter pills is apt to upset diges- tion. They’re tiny, hence easily swallowed. They’re easy in action, and after using them yOu feel well instead of Bilious and Constipated; your Sick Headache, Dizziness, and ndigestion are gone. Good nature belongs to an active liver; irritability to a morbid liver. Take Pleasant Pellets that you may cultivate good nature, happiness, and health. . They’re the cheapest pill you can buy, because guaranteed to 've satisfaction, or your money is returned. . ’ A SQUARE offer of $500 in gold is made by the proprietors of Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy, for any case of Catarrh in the Head, no matter how bad or of' how long standing, which they cannotcure. / Q each Congress for the chairman OI the com- mittee and the man first on the list of the minority each to make a statement from his point of view of the condition of the appropriations, what has and what has not been done, and to make a comparison of the work of this committee under one par- ty with that under a different party con- trol. As the leading man of the minority, it naturally fell to General Henderson to make this statement, and as soon as all the appropriation bills were passed he be- gan the preparation of the Republican side of the case. But during the day, before General Henderson’s statement was ready, the Illinois member made a similar state- ment himself in behalf of the minority of the committee. The next day, when General Henderson came out with his statement, it was al- ready discountcd and its news value de- stroyed, so that only a brief summary of it was sent out, and that as a courtesy to him. The episode has provoked consider- able feeling and‘caused a flurry among the wise men of the appropriations committee. Another Resignation. It is the gossip in Washington that an- other cabinet resignation is shortly to oc- cur, the rcason—in sufficiency of income to meet the necessary expenses of Washing- ton society life—being much the same as that which caused Postmaster General Bissell’s retirement. Secretary Smith has determined that no more patents for lands granted to subsi- dized railroads shall be issued until there has been a. settlement of the debt due'the government from these roads. An at- tempt was made to get a resolution to this effect through congress just before ad- journment, but it failed. To give effect to the recent act of con- gress providing that no person shall be pun- ished for desertion from the naval service committed more than two years previous- ly, unless he should have during that time removed from the United States, the secretary of the navy has issued a general order providing that such persons may re- ceive a release from the chief of the navi- gation bureau in the case of a sailor and from the commandant of marines in the case of a marine. The release, however. shall not amount to a discharge or remov- al of the charge of desertion, nor shall it form a basis for pension or bounty claims. TROOPS FOR hIISSION STATION. To Protect the Agency and the \Vhites on the Umatilla. Reservation. PENDLETON, On, March 11.—-The com- panies of the Second cavalry from Fort Walla Walla arrived here last night on a special train and will be taken without delay to Mission station, on the Umatilla Indian reservation, from which point they will proceed to the agency near the station. Indian Agent Harper had been notified from Washington that the troops were held in readiness at Walla Walla, but kept his counsel. saying nothing until about the time for the arrival of the train, when he gave out the information that he had re- quested the troops. He stated the troops may be necessary to protect the agency and whites on the reservation. Affairs have been disturbed on the reservation for some weeks on account of the disagreements of the officials and the Indians. The Indian court, in the case of Indian offenses, has exercised powers which the Indians claim were too arbitrary. The matter was brought to an issue in a civil case in the justice court here when Wat Soot brought suit against Brisbough and others to recover damages for an alleged assault committed by the Indian police- men. The case was decided in favor of the plaintiif, but was appealed by the United States district attorney to the state circuit court. Later Chiefs No Shirt and Young Chief and 20 other men were arrested for dancing, contrary to the agent’s orders. This caused a riot in the council chamber, and a general row was narrowly averted. The chiefs were released, but were again arrested on the same chargeand for resist- ing United States oflicersnThey were sent to jail, but employed counsel to sue out warrants of habeas corpus in the circuit court for their release. Yesterday afternoon Judge Fee of the state circuit court rendered a decision in the habeas corpus case. He holds that the Indians are citizens, under the Dawes act, entitled to all rights, privileges and im- munities of other citizens excepting the alienating their allottments rights on res- ervations, title to which was transferred, subject to trusteeship of the United States government. The release of No Shirt and Young Chief was also ordered. Counsel for the Indian court will appeal. The Indians’ counsel were seen, and said they had told the Indians they must not resort to violence in any event, but await the supreme court decision. NEW Jansnr’s SCANDAL Ex-Superintendent Ford Contradicts Lam~ bert’s Testimony—The Mutilated Books. ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla, March 11.—Ex- Superintendent Bernard J. Ford of the New Jersey state capitol building, whose official career is being investigated by a senate committee, is very ill in this city, suffering from lung trouble. Mr. Ford denies the accuracy of the testimony of Asher E. Lambert, who testified before the commi tee in Trenton Friday that Ford had told him to tell the New Jersey School and Furniture company to make its profit 20 per cent or nothing. ”His reputation in Newark is of the worst,” said Ford, “and his statement is absurd in the ex- treme. ” , In regard to the testimony of John Mul- lins, with respect to Mullins’ books being mutilated. Ford said this was done by Bookkeeper Eugene Murphy, who played the races a great deal, and that his pro- clivities will account for his action. Mr. Ford said further that he never received 1 cent commission on any furniture pur- chased for the state; that the whole inves- tigation was a matter of politics, and that he would make a full statement when all the testimony was in.

PHILADELPHIA, March 11.—Hugh Fra- ser of New York city, owner of the steam yacht Norwood, has completed arrange- ments for the race for $250 a side between the Yankee Doodle, owned by McBride Brothers, and the Norwood. The race will take place on Decoration day on the Hudson river. ' ....P THE GOSSIP 0F BERLIN. Emperor William Irritated at the At- titude of the Agrarians. AGAINST THE GRAIN TRUST. The Kaiser Says He Will Not Counte- nauce Usury with Bread—Influenza. Still Bismarck Celebrations. Rampant — The Prince BERLIN, March 11,—The public is look- ing forward to the convening of the state council on Tuesday with a deal of inter- est. Emperor William will'dcliver a com- prehensive address defining the scope of the deliberations and the propositions to be submitted to the council. The question of the restriction or prohibition of the en- try of American cattle and meat into Ger- many will be one of the subjects which will be fully discussed. The emperor will share the labors of the body as far as cir- cumstances permit, attending many of the sessions, if possible. Herr von Kanitz’s grain monopoly bill, according to the promise which the Feder- ation of Husbandry made to the emperor, will not be introduced in’the reichstag un- til after it has been considered by the state council in all its bearin gs. Emperor William is irritated at the atti- tude of the agrarians respecting the cred- its asked for on behalf of the navy depart- ment in the reichstag, and it is reported that his majesty has expressed his indig- nation rather freely respecting Herr von Kanitz’s bill. It is stated that on the oc- casion of the recent banquet of the Bran- denburg diet, the emperor, while private- ly conversing with Baron von Manteuffel, strongly expressed .his disapproval of the proposed grain monopoly. Resented by the Kaiser. According to one version of the story, the emperor said, “ You cannot expect me to engage in usury with brcai . ” Another account has it that the emperor remarked, "I cannot help in making poor people’s bread dear. ” An expression used with reference to the navy debate by the agrarian leader, Herr von Ploctz, “ Ohne Kanitz, keinc kachne” (“Without Kanitz, no ships”), came to the ears of the emperor and was much resent- ed by him. Influenza is still rampant here. The Duchess of Sagan, mother of the wife of the German cmbassador at Washington, Baron von Saurmar-Jeltsch, died of that disease today. The Duke of Sagan is only just recover- ing from an attack of the same disease. "Emperor William’s eldest sister, the Prin- cess of Saxc-Meiningen, is improving. Two Berlin judges, Wollncr and Hofmann, have died from the effects of influenza, and Dr. Bellcrmann, director of the Grey convent and gynasium; Dr. Carl Peters, the German explorer; M. E. dc Saintc Claire, first secretary of the French cm- bassy, and Herr Dreuhmann, president of the court of chambers, are among those ' prostrated. Prince Christian of Hohclohe-Oehringcn was the guest of Prince Bismarck at Fried- richsruhe last week. The latter spoke of his waning strength and Dr. Schwcnin- ger’s positive prohibition to excite himself and receive large crowds. In addition. Prince Bismarck expressed grave doubts as to whether he would be equal to the task of celebrating his cightieth birthday, as the people wished him to do, publicly and with all kinds of demonstrations. An Unusual Honor. In order to avoid the spectacle of the rcichstag holding aloof from celebrating the birthday of Prince Bismarck, the East- er recess will begin on March 30, thus ex- tricating the members of that body from an embarrassing situation. The reichstag abandoned the idea of oiiicially participat- ing in the celebrations, owing to the oppo- sition of the Ccntrists, Socialists and Herr Richter’s wing of the Radicals, and the de- cision not to sit on April 1, the prince’s . birthday, is a compromise arrangement. The emperor has informed Professor Sybel, the historian, that he will personally par- ticipate in the celebrations. A newspaper of Leipsic recently asked a number of literary and political men for an expression of opinion upon the idea of making Prince Bismarck an honorary citi~ zen of the German empire by act of parlia- ment, and almost all approved of the plan. Count von Hompesch—Rurich, chairman of the Centrist part-y, however, replied that the eightieth birthday of Prince Bismarck “gives me no occasion to answer your question.” Dr. Schaedler, another mem- ber of the Center party, was more pointed in his answer. He wrote, “I beg to say that in memory of the Kulturkampf and the oppression of German Catholics at that time your questions are of no interest to me in any way.” The Conservative, National Liberal and the anti-Semite members of the reichstag will celebrate Prince Bismarck’s birthday by a commers and will go to Friedrichs- ruho together on April 7 in order to deliver an address to the cx—chancellor.'

Afflicted With Rheumatism. Mr. Geo. A. Mills, of Lebanon, Conn} says: “I was afflicted with rheumatism in my back all last winter. It was so severe at times that'I’bould not stand up straight, but was drawn over on one side. I tried different remedies without receiving any relief until I bou t a bottle of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. ,A terjusing it for three days, according to directions, my rheumatism was gone and has not returned since. I have since recommended it to others and know they have been benefited by its use. For sale by Gregory & CO- , Cures“ - OTHERS, WILL AYE R’s Sarsaparilla “mini '1 I, 'l I 'l l l” H .
