EXTRA SESSION CALLED. FIRST MONDAY IN AUGUST , • IS.THE DATE. JOYOOS NEWS FROM WASHINGTON. The President Issues a Proclam ation Convening Congress And There is Great Rejoicing Conse quent Up *n the Act. | A "Washington special says: The president late Friday afternoon issued his proclamatiwn calling congress to meet in extraordinary session on Mon day, August 7tli. This action was taken after a pro longed session of the cabinet at which there was warm discussion and wide difference of opinion. The president finally ended the matter by taking practically his own course. The pressure for an earlier session has been growing stronger daily and since the action in India, it has been unprecedented. The pressure came from all parts of the country and par ticularly from the region east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio. It included all classes of business, bank ers, manufacturers, merchants, in fact, every ono to whom credit is a neces sity. It was particularly insistent from New York, both stato and city. From New York city there came not only letters and telegrams from individuals and resolutions from commercial bod ies, but leading business men who en joyed the acquaintance of Mr. Cleve land, came in person to urge the ab solute business necessity of a session earlier than September. This action has been favorably re ceived at Washington by men of all shades of opinion, even those opposed to the repeal of the Sherman law, feeling that it is just as well that the issue should be met. There are not enough representatives and senators now in Washington to indicate defi nitely what the action of congress will be. It is regarded as certain that the repeal of the measure will pass the house, and that the final battle will be fought in the senate where the silver men are projmrtionately much stronger than they are in the other body, i The determination to call an extra session the first week in August in stead of the first week in September, it is understood, was only arrived at the cabinet meeting Friday morning giving full weight to the telegrams re ceived from all parts of the country urging this course. Another consideration which caused the president to change his mind was foreshadowed in a remark made by ono of his cabinet officers two days ago, that if the president received reasonable assurance that there was a likelihood of a prompt re peal of the so-called Sherman silver purchase law he might be disposed to call congress together earlier than he had announced. It is inferred from the fact that the president has done so that he considers he has obtained the assurance that he desired. THE PROCLAMATION. Executive Mansion, Washington, D. C., June 30, 1893.—Whereas, The dis trust and apprehension concerning the financial situation which pervades all business circles have already caused great loss and damage to our mer chants and threaten disaster, stop the wheels of manufacture, bring distress and privation to our farmers and withhold from our working-men the wage of labor, and, Whereas, The present perilous con dition is largely the result of a finan cial policy which the executive branch of the government finds embodied in unwise laws which must be executed until repealed by consent; Now, therefore, I, Grover Cleveland, president of the United States, in per formance of a constitutional duty, do by this proclamation declare that an extraordinary occasion requires the convening of both houses of the con gress at the capitol, in the city of Washington, on the SEVENTH DAY OP AUGUST next, at noon. that the people may be relieved through legislation of the present impending danger and distress. All those entitled to act as members of the fifty-third congress are required to take notice of this proclamation and attend at the time and place above stated. Given under my hand and the seal of the United States in the city of Washington, on the thirtieth day of June, in the year of our Lord eighteen hundred and ninety-three, and of the independence one hundred and seventeenth. Grover Cleveland. KINGGEORGE ABDICATES. And the Domain of Greece Has Been Declared a Republic. Cablo dispatches from Athens, Greece, state that the king has abdi cated the throne of Greece and the country has been declared a republic. The action created the most intense excitement, but it is not believed any trouble 'will ensue. George 1., king of the Greeks, born December 24, 1845, elected king in 1863. He is the son of the present king of Denmark, Christian IX., and brother of the princess of Wales and the empress of Russia. He married in 1867 the Grand Duchess Olga, eldest daughter of the Grand Duke Constantine of Russia, uncle to the present emperor. They have had six living children, five sons and one daughter. The eldest son is Prince Constantine, born 1868, mar ried in 1889 the Princess Sophia, sis ter of the present German emperor, and has one son, Prince George, born 1890. The king’s eldest daughter, Al exandria, married in 1889 the Grand Duke Paul, brother of the present | emperor of Russia, and died Septem w her 24,1891, leaving a daughter and son. Mrs. Albert Bturdevant is Due City of JMnrj, Oojm WASHINGTON GOSSIP. Happenings from Day to Day in tie National Capital Appointments in the Various Depart ments—Other Notes of Interest. Hon. Robert P. Porter, superin tendent of the census, has resigned, to take effect immediately. Mr. Porter has been desirous of severing luh con nection with the office for over a month, aud recently completely cer tain business arragement with a New York enterprise which demands his early attention. Assistant Secretary Hamlin, in view of the repeated violation of the law in the sale of goods on exhibition at the world’s fair, without the payment of tho customs duty, attaching, has in structed Collector Clark to hereafter strictly enforce the law, which provides a penalty for its violation, of a fine of not more than $5,000 or imprisonment at not more than ten years. The celebration of tho Fourth of July at the national capital opened with religious services at Ephimany church, conducted by Kev. Dr. Mc- Kim, in the presence of the Sons of the Revolution and others. The soci eties proceeded to the ground of the Washington monument, where, after the reading of the Declaration of In dependence, two speeches were made. Other societies observed the day in a formal manner. Business was sus pended and all the government de partments closed. Assistant Secretary Reynolds, of the interior department has made a pen sion decision which will be welcome news to a large number of women who ministered to wounded soldiers in hos pitals during the late war. They are to be placed on the pension rolls. The question arose upon a communication from the commissioner of pensions as to whether those women who superin tended the diet of the sick and wound ed soldiers were entitled to pensions under the provisions of the act com monly known as the nurses act. The secretary of state is informed by Minister Gray that the Mexican congress has authorized the executive to negotiate during the five years suc ceeding May 30, 1893, any contracts granting franchises and concessions to companies investing capital to estab lish new industries, which do not in terfere with others, the duration thereof not to exceed ten years, and the minimum of capital invested to be not less than $250,000. The decree relieves such capital from importa tion, under bond, of the necessary treasury apparatus free. The collector of customs at El Faso, Tex., has been instructed by Assistant Secretary Spalding to discontinue at once the practice of admitting sul phides of silver from Mexico without a consular invoice and in the fut ure not to admit silver bullion from Mexico exceeding SIOO in value alleged to be imported as money unless ac companied by a consular invoice or a bond for tho production of such in voice unless the bullion is shown by a shipper’s declaration made before a consular officer at the port of ship ment to be forwarded as money or medium of exchange at a fixed volume per ounce, and not as merchandise. The effect of the announcement of an extra session of congress upon sen ators and representatives in Washing ton was very marked. Senator Voor hees, chairman of the finance commit tee, first knew of the president’s action when informed by an Associated Press representative. He was not surprised. “That being the case,” said the sena tor, “it will not be long before we are again at work. Inasmuch as congress has to deal with the subject of finance, it is well that we get about it, and the sooner the better. Ido not know that congress can or will bring relief to the country, but it is our duty to make the effort and there is no wisdom in delay. ” Circulation Figures. The monthly circulation statement issued by treasury department Tues day shows a net decrease on circulation since June Ist, of $2,245,490, and since July 1, 1892, of $9,346,977, making the amount of all kinds of money in circulation on July 1, 1893, $1,593,- 726,411. The class of money in cir culation is as follows: Gold coin, $403,633,700; standard silver dollars, $57,029,743; subsidiary silver, $65,- 400,268; gold certificates,s92,97o,019 ; silver certificates, $326,489,165 ; treas ury notes, act July 4, 1890, $140,661,- 694; United States notes, $320,875,683 ; currency certificates, act of June 8, 1872, $11,935,000; national bank notes, $174,731,139. The amount of circula tion per capita is placed at $23.86. (jQSHip us to Reorganization. The calling of congress in extra session is already evoking gossip as to the reorganization on both the bodies. Such changes as are to be made in the official force of the senate, including anew secretary and sergeant-at-arms, have already been determined upon, and the new officers will enter upon their duties and salaries when the senate meets. The only new face on the floor of the senate will be Stanford’s successor, appoint ed by the governor of California. The other senators were sworn in on the sth of March last. A complete reor ganization of the house is involved, with many members to take their seats. Anew speaker, clerk, sergeant at-arms, doorkeeper and postmaster are to be elected, and brand new com mittees are to be appointed. This does not necessarily mean a change in the personnel of all these officials, but it is quite in the bounds of probability that some of them may be supplanted by new men. BOOZE WAS PLENTY. The B ind Tiger Was Abroad in Charleston on the 4ih. According to dispatches the blind tiger was abroad in Charleston on the glorious fourth. Everybody agrees that there is very little trouble in get ting soft drinks and hard drinks in the city by the sea, and no arrests have been made yet.

A Valley of Death in Bolivia. ‘ ‘There is a valley in Bolivia, South America, which might well be called the Valley of the Shadow of Death,” said Edgar Stapleton, “It has been inhabited for an indefinite period of years by the Kanaa Indians, who are kindred to the various South Ameri can tribes and number now only a few hundred souls. That they were once a powerful tribe is indicated by the condition of the land which they as a tribe still inhabit. One cannot travel any distance through their land with out coming upon the old and forsaken burial grounds of the Ivanaa dead. These places cannot be called grave yards, for the bodies are not buried, but rather placed upon elevated plat forms, wrapped in the garments of death and bound to the crossbeams that they may not be displaced. . In one of these burial grounds there will be probably 50 high skeleton plat forms, and on each will lie from three to five of the Kanaa dead. The air in that part of Bolivia is very pure and preservative, for it is one of the high est plateaus of the continent, although Kanaa valley is just a little below the plateau’s height. A traveler passing through that land at night and by moonlight would be awestricken at the gloomy vision those graveyards pre sent.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Comment on 1 lie Greek Costume. On one occasion when Harriet Hos mer, the sculptor, was addressing an audience of clubwomen on Greek art she alluded especially to the flowing lines in the dress worn by women in the age of Pericles. But she impressed upon her hearers the important fact that it was a dress suited to that period when women remained much within and _>ors and when no public duty was de manded of them. “Beautiful as it was, ” she said with her delightful laugh, “we could not imagine a nine teenth century woman running to catch a train in such a garment.” Dressed to Kill, but Didn’t.

Spoiling n Child’s Curiosity. A child whose questions are not an swered by its parents will either turn to others who are willing to gratify its desire for knowledge, but who perhaps are unable to distinguish between what is good for a child to know and what is not, or else it will lose its fine natured susceptibility and learn to look upon life in a dull, spiritless way without interest or curiosity.
