Washington, June 10.—Morrison, from die committee on ways and means, report- t d back adversely the resolution offered by Grosvenor, of Ohio, declaring in favor of the restoration of the wool tariff of 1867, an d the resolution offered by Wilkins, of Ohio, expressing the sense of congress as adverse to any change in the present wool tariff, and they were laid upon the table. The house then went into a committee of the whole, Blount In the chair, on the legislative appropriation bill. ’f'be clause relating to the pension office gnve rise to the usual discussion as to par tisan methods employed in the conduct of that bureau by tlie present and previous administrations. Then a long and at times an amusing discussion ensued as to the number of democrats and republicans re- .pectively who entered the union army at the beginning of the war. As this was a time-worn subject, but little genuine in terest was taken in the debate which promised to continue to such a length that Randall suggested a night session at which the gentlemen might give their views on the matter, while Payson suggested to some gentlemen around him the propriety of appointing a special com mittee to settle once for all the vexed question of the political status of the union army. Finally the discussion was closed with a speech by Curtain, of Penn sylvania, in which he appealed to the house to proceed to business and quitfight- i ig the war over again. Cannon, of Illinois, offered an amend ment. which, after a short debate, was agreed to, increasing the appropriations for the bureau of labor in tne aggregate 8.39.610, so as to make the appropriation equal to the estimates of the commissioner of labor. Then there was a brief recurrence of the discussion of yesterday, Hiscock, of New York, reiterating his statement that, ac- •urdingto correct estimates there would In at the close of the next fiscal year a de ficiency of from eleven to fourteen million dollars, and Morrison, of Illinois, contend ing that there would be a surplus of at least thirty million dollars. Cabell, of Virginia, offered an amend ment reducing from #2,050,000 to $1,900,000 tie. appropriation for the salaries and ex penses of agents, surveyors, gaugers and *,iorekeepers in the bureau of internal rt venue. The sum suggested by him, he said, was amply sufficient and was f50,000 in excess of the expenditures of the pres ent year. Randall said there would lit; no danger iii adopting the amendment. It was based upon information which had come to the i inimittee since the estimates were sub mitted. The amendment was agreed to. The committee then rose and reported the bill to the house. The amendments igreed to in the committee intreasiug the "I'lnpensution of the assistant treasurers at Chicago, St. Louis, Boston and San Fran cisco were rejected by the house. The amendment appropriating .*10,000 for ad ditional emergency clerics, messengers and watchmen at the sub-treasury of New York was also rejected. The other amend ments were agreed to in gross and the bill was passed. The house then, at 5:30, took u recess till . 'clock, the evening session to be for the consideration of the private calendar. At its evening session the house made some progress in the work of clearing the private calendar of a number of measures, passing twenty-five bills of a private char acter, among them lieiug the senate bill granting the franking privilege to the widow of Oen. U. 8. Grunt, and the house bill for the relief of the survivors of the ex ploring steamer Jeannette, and the widows and children of those who perished in the retreat from the w reck of the vessel in the Arctic seas. Thehou.se then at 11 o’clock adjourned. Senate. Washington, June 10.—Almost imme diately after the opening of the senate Ed munds moved an executive session, hut yielded to a request for die transaction of the morning business. Dawes presented a memorial of the Mas sachusetts legislature which was read. The memorial recites that the general court of Massachusetts views with deep concern the recent interferences of the government of Canada with the rights of fishermen of the United States, and urges congress to se cure immediate relief for that class of citi zens. After remarks by Hoar on the fishery question, the senate, on motion of Ed munds, at 12:80, went into an executive session. At 1:15 the doors were re-opened and the senate decided to take lip tlie house bill providing for a repeal of the pre-emption “n.ber culture and desert land acts. The invalid pension appropriation bill was reported by Logan and at once passed by the senate as reported from the senate committee on appropriations. The military academy appropriation bill was then taken up and passed—yeas 42, nays 4. The nays were Cliaee, Plumb, Tel ler and Wilson, of Iowa. Wilson, of Iowa, obtained leave, pending the regular order, to address the senate on the bill making the rate of postage on fourth class mail matter two cents an ounce. The senate then proceeded to the consid- j i ratio*; of the house bill repealing the prt- i emption timber culture and desert land | acts. The senate committee oil public I land have amended the house bill by sub- | stituting the provisions of the senate bill. ■ Blair offered an amendment providing ! in effect as to desert lands at an expendi- ; tare of three dollars for improvements, the government should part with title, and that none of the lands should be held in ] larger tracts than 640 acres in a single own- j erstiip. After debate, at 5:30. tlie senate ad- I journed without action on the amendment. | NiimlnsflotiH FonHrm<*il mill Kaii'ilnl.

Chicaoo, June 14.—A forlorn hope was taken this morning in the case of Nels. Hansen, the police officer who whs so se verely injured in the Haymarket riot, and who has been wavering between life and death at the county hospital for several weeks past, On Saturday his left leg was amputated, and it was fancied that the strain on his enfeebled system was too great. It was then decided-by the hospi tal staff that the only means that offered any hope of the possibility of saving his life, or even prolonging it (or a short time, was the infusing into his veins of a quan tity of fresh blood from u healthy robust man. Erick Egeries, the officer’s brother-in-law, offered himself for the operation, and this afternoon an incision was made in tlie main artery of his left arm, and four ounces of blood were allowed to rush out. An incision was then made in Officer Hansen’s right arm and the process of transferring his brother-in- law's blood into the patient was soon in progress. He moved restlessly to and fro for a time, and a slight tinge of color came into his fa.ee and lips. The operation was successfully performed, but after suffering greatly for about two hours, he died at the county hospital. He belonged to the Fourth precinct, and was wounded in the arms, body and legs. He leaves a wife and six children. rimrlHM K. Wolfe for (iiivornor. Harrisburg, June 19. -Tlie Evening Star of this city makes the positive and ap parently authoritative announcement that the lion. Charles S. Wolfe will accept the prohibition nomination for governor this year. Mr. Wolfe ran ns an independent candidate for state treasurer in 1381, with out a nomination from any convention or endorsed by any organized body, and re ceived 50,000 votes. It, is conceded that as the candidate of the prohibition party he would poll at least double that number and make the defeat of the republican can didate absolutely certain. On being asked to state directly whetht r or not he would be in the Hold,'he replied : “If I do I will take a place on the regular ticket. The bust, time 1 was virtually my own candidate, you know. I nominated myself and placed myself in the field. I did that on principle, because 1 could no longer countenance the methods of the re publican party. «This time, if I go into the field, my nomination will be by a regular convention of a regular organized party. I cannot conscientiously vote the repulican ticket. The republican parly lias nroken ail of its pledges. Tt promised reform, and even when General Beaver was nominated it was thought if lie should be elected that the reforms would be instituted at once, and many who would have been indepen dents voted foi him for that reason. But they were not begun. Things are going on in the same old ring rut. The best men iu the party are suppressed by the bosses and the worst men put forward. Those are 1 he reasons why I will vote the prohibi tion ticket, this year. Wiishimrlnti mi l l,ei* U111 vei-slI j.

New York, June 16.—The Chicago party were buyers and the Londoners sell ers at the stock exchange to-day. The opening this morning was comparatively steady, the first prices being generally within ! to | of last evening. Reading, however, was up ?, while Northwestern and New York Central each, was down J. There was some little hesitancy in the first few minutes, and many stocks declined slight fractions from the opening, but those were almost without excep tion the lowest of the day. The market soon gathered strength and activity and prices rose almost without a break until 2 p. in. There was then a slight decline, but the market closed firm at oi near the best figures of the day. Jersey Central, however, is f lower and Erie 4 lower. Omaha preferred shows an ad vance of 34.

Chicago, June 16.--A special from Ra cine, Wis.. says at 10:30 last night a dyna mite bomb was hurled into the carriage way of Mayor M. M. Secor’s house. The bomb exploded with a report that startled the whole city. Mr. Secor drove over the fuse that exploded about fifteen minutes previous to the explosion. A Bohemian named Jamber was severely hurt as he was traced by the ' blood from bis wounds for over a mile and a half to the residence of ex-Alderman Balk o. He claims he was passing Seeor’s residence al the time of the explosion oo his way to the 11:10 train on the North western railroad, but will no doubt have a chance to explain why he did not call for help when he was so severely hurt instead of running away.

The body of King i Ludwig was placed in state in the old ‘chapel of the Residenz Sclioss this morn ing and the public were admitted lo view | the remains after 8 o'clock. Tire crowds i which came to have a last look at the dead | king were enormous and beyond the ca pacity of the authorities to handle in an orderly manner. The people in their first surge brushed the guards and ushurs aside and poured in in disorderly confusion, j Many were knocked down and trampled upon, and the coffin was soon surrounded ! by people breathless with excitement, or I crying aloud with pain. The doors of the p.iluci were finally forced shut and arrange ments made for admitting 290 persons at the end of each 15 minutes. To preserve order under the new plan it was even nec essary to place at the entrances soldiers bearing fixed bayonets. Fora while this incensed the people and created disorder and danger, but they eventually quieted down and awaited tlieir turns decorously. THE KING’S FUNERAL. The funeral of King Ludwig will take place Saturday. The funeral nittss will be said in St. Michael’s church.

I 1 hey have been considered poor by Mr. ; 1 Morrison and his friends for months, i ; The difficulties were increased I j as soon ns the Louisiana democrats hiul l .’concluded to do as the Ohio dem- i.ocrnts will undoubtedly do, and vote l ( against it. Repeated canvasses have re- • j suited about alike. There may have been I differences at times, but at no time was the - I prospect so good that anybody could say ■ that there were fifteen votes more for than I against the bill, or more votes against it than for it. The degree of uncertainty ap- i'pears to be great now. even in the minds 1 i of leaders. Mr. Morrison is quoted ns huv- | I ing declared to some one that the hill will : be taken up by a majority of fifteen. Col. j McKinley, on tlie contrary, says tnat there I will in fifteen votes more against the Iff]] | j than lorit.

The | j score of democrats needed once more t o ; defeat Mr. Morrison is said to he ready to i vote with the republicans. One canvass I | mentions Messrs.

But his claims to the position do not rest on the fact that he is “next below” alone.

The address attracted con siderable attention at the time and met General Lee’s eyes. Yesterday the secre tary of the democratic state committee re ceived the following letter from him : Commonwealth of Virginia, Gover nor’s Office, Richmond, Va., June 10, 1880. -The statements of Dr. McChesney are false, viz: That an ex-confederate general led the military in the procession in a confederate uniform, as well as liis y I statement that Lieutenant-General Bheri- diui, iii blue, was placed in an inferior posi tion. and that tbe military was imrtialled by a man in the color of tushes.

Holman was renominated for congress to-day. the democratic party able candidate save one, and he is no less person than General B. F. Butler, the son of destiny, who led the pnrty to its latest victory aild who came much nearer a sec ond election than any of his successors on the ticket name to a first. The leaders of the party have not forgotten his apostasy to the cause in the last presidential elec tion, and will oppose him unless they sec he is tlieir only chance to regain power; but the rank and file of the* party, tut* can- | cus heelers and men wlio carry out the commands of the central committee and make a showing at the polls, arc still loyal to him and break forth in cheer whenever he shows himself I in public. There is no man in tin- country, unless it is John L. Sullivan, who j can fill a Boston bnli on so short a notice as "Uncle Ben." It docs not matter what his faith is, or what he hopes to do nihil ist, atheist, free lover, Mormon, labor re former and woman’s aufl'rugist ail unite on common grounds when Butler is a candi- j dale, lie is the Mecca to which every crank in the land Hocks.

Then, again, tin* party is not so ! well satisfied with President Cleveland ;us it was a year ago, and many think Both r hail prophetic foresight whcnlhe made ids stand against Ids candidacy. There arc democratic as well as republican mug wumps here this year, and tlieir number is not growing less as new ap pointments arc made. Unless the ad- I ministration changes its policy the ! democrats will be ready not only to ignore j the president, but to indorse his enemies by the time the convention meets. Gen. Butler, always alert for his own interests, comes out just now after a silence* of nearly two years and talks freely mi public affairs, it has taken well, and will, no doubt, be followed by others. Whether hi can work up public feeling to tlie nominating point remains to be seen. He is the only man who can have any show against Ames, and if he I'.uinot get the lead in the democratic party lie can cripple it for years. He knows tliis as well as anybody.

While tins is not t lie .sentiment of a major ity, the people of that section express somewhat similar views. The residents of southern Arizona do not want the Apaches driven into Sonora, as recommended by Chicago during the past few days, have attracted the attention of some of the i regular medical practitioners. The medi- 1 cos are disposed to look upon the treat- I ment of these so-called mental scientists j as another scheme to deceive and gull the I public, and treat discuses in a manner not I set down in tlie books and consequently of i no practical value. The physicians claim that the scientists ure simply playing upon I tlie* superstitions, religious aud otherwise, ; of their patients, arid consequently are | practicing unlawfully. in order to test the question whether I these mental scientists or metaphysical healers were* not infringing the* medical laws of the state, the editor of a medical J journal wrote the state board of health a few days ago, asking whether the mental scientists were uot violating laws of the Tombstone, A.
