Wasnrxorox. 115‘). 191—1: ho senate went into-executive rcxzszo': t-n‘ry to consider the Anglo-American :zib tent-ton treaty. Sen- ator Sherman sat nervously in his seat for half an hour today, waiting to make his motion to proceed m executive business. So impatient was 12:: to have the treaty considered that Le moved to proceed with executive business long before the morning business was disposed of. When Vice President Stevenson an- nounced that he Would put the motion of the senator from Ohio MrsQuay arose in his place and zgave notice that he would ask for the consideration of the labor com- mission qucstion immediately after the ex- ecutive session was orvr. He also took oc- casion to say that ho m-maht the executive session today would not be productive of results. It was evident from Mr. Quay’s demeanor that he did not approve of hav— ing other business side trucked to make Way for the arbitration treaty. Mr. Quay was still on his feet when Senator Pettigrew arose, and, catching the chairman‘s eye, said he would have to in- sist on the considération of the Indian ap- propriation bill Luiizcdiately after the ex- ecutive session adjourned. The vice presi- dent, seeing that things were becoming chaotic, put the motion of Senator Sher- man to consider executive business. It was declared carried. Usually a motion to pro- ceed to executive business is carried unan- imously, but today for the first time sev- eral negative voices were heard proceeding from the vicinity of Senators McBride, Wetmore and Peder, who sit to the left of the vice president. ' It was understood about the senate early today that Senator Sherman would make a final effort to get a vote on the treaty to- day. Failing in this, it was alleged that he would abandon further efforts and leave the whole matter to the special session. The pressure for consideration of bills on the calendar has been becoming so great that should Mr. Sherman decide to push the treaty to a vote he would probably fail to secure an executive session. Senator Sherman was disappointed, as the senate, instead of taking up the arbi- tration treaty in executive session, pro- ceeded to the consideration of presidential nominations.

LONDt’iN, I'eh. fail-o Senator Wolcott of Colorado, who has been visiting London, Paris and Berlin in the interests of bimet‘ allis‘m, returned here today from the latter city. In an interview he said: the I‘nitcd States that I return entirely encouraged with the result of my mission. I haxc good reason to believe that it will have some of the results hoped for. The exact objects for which 1 came over here have been largely misstated by the press of all countries, and their very nature made impossible any premature discussion, which could only have thwarted the whole object of my trip. I am, therefore, unable to contradict them or issue a statement on the subject. I am satisfied to abide by the result, when all will be known. “I have everywhere been received with the utmost courtesy and kindness by ofli- cials and financiers. I have not seen many biinetallists and could not give the time to accept their hospitalities, as to do so would be simply swinging around the circle. It would have resulted only in the passing anew of resolutions which passed years ago. The gold men were those I was after, and I must say they received me with ev- ery apparent desire to assist my plans so far as they could. “I was received by Prince Hohenlolic with the utmost kindness and attention. I am afraid from the statements of the North German Gazette yesterday, declar- ing that the audience was purely one of courtesy, that some ardent silverite has been talking. But I saw none of them in Berlin, and the statements to which the 'North German Gazette refers were not in-' spired by me or by my acts. Of course, in ‘coming here. I took my fate and that of such a mission in my own hands. I re- peat, I am entirely encouraged by the re— sult. ” SALVATIONISTS LOCKED UP. The Village Authorities of Greenport Ob- ject to llIusic In the Streets. , GREENPORT, N. Y., Feb. 20.—Thc fight between the village authorities here and the Salvation Army was renewed again. During the winter the army has not held many outdoor meetings, nor has it paraded through the streets of the village. It was the parading and the playing of instruments which first caused the conflict with the village authorities. The resi— dents of the village are about equally di- vided. There was an ordinance passed by the village trustees forbidding the playing of instruments without a permit. This was a direct slap at the Salvationists. Nevertheless they played their instruments and several of them were arrested, but were released on bail pending an appeal. There was a parade. and a big crowd followed the members of the Army to see what the authorities would do. They were not kept in suspense long, for the whole Army was arrested and the men and wom- en spent the day in the village lockup. On their way to the cells they kept singing songs. , ‘3. POPULIST LEADERS TO MEET. Mr. \Vashburn Thinks Middle of the Road , Men Will Prodomlnate. WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.—George F. Wash- burn, the chairman of the Populist state committee of Massachusetts and a member of the national executive committee of the People's Party, is in Washington on his way to Memphis to attend the annual meeting of the Reform Press association on the 22d, which he describes as the first gathering of the Populist leaders and edi- tors since the campaign. The middle 01 the road sentiment, Mr. Wash burn thinks, will predominate at Memphis. This gath- ering he characterizes as the regular con- ference, recognized by National Chairman Butler, while the Kansas City meeting, he says, is an irregular one. There will be no official party declaration from either meeting. Mr. Washburn is an ardent advocate for separate party action on the part of the Populists, and he goes to Memphis armed with a resolution declaring for such action hereafter‘by the People’s Party. He feels confident that the association will indorse it. 0 Yacht Andria Launched. GLASGOW, Feb. 20,—The new 440 ton steam yacht Andria, constructed for Mr. John E.

If there are many weed seeds in the ground, these can be de- stroyed by summer following“ or by freshing the ground several times be fore the grass seeds are sown. It posi- tively will not do to sow‘ grass where the ground'is foul with weed seed. _ 2. The land should possess at least. fair fertility in 'order to produce curly- . springing and rapid growth of the, young grass plants from" the very bef’ ginning. ‘ ' 3. The land must be very ‘carefully prepared. In this there is nothing but gain to the husbandman by doing his work well. Every inch of the soil should be gone over again and again. and the surface rendered as smooth as a table and as fine as an onion bed. We' have been very careless in the past in regard to the proper treatment of gl‘dSS-. lands and must improve in the future if we desire the heavy crops Iiossible. 4., It is well to sow large quantities of grass seed—two or three times the usual amount. In seeding, the field should be crossed both ways, if possi- ble, so as to insure entire absence of skips and breaks in the evenness of the young sword. - 5. It is probably best, although we have not fully demonstrated the fact, to sow grass and clover seed very early in the spring time. Our returns for the past year. and tho-so of some of our student Correspondents. show the benc- ficial effects of very early seeding. 6. Finally, a matter of much im- portance is that of checking the growth of weeds, which will annoy more or less in spite of all precautions. When tlic'wecds reach a height of six inchesthe mower should be put into the field with the cutter bar set about {our inches high. Sometimes the mow- ing of the weeds must be repeated.— Amcrican Agriculturist. A Case of Roup. A. 31., Fremont, Nebraska, says his (owls have swelling about the eyes, which finally closesthem.
