Washington Letter,
From Oar .Regular Correspondent
Washington, April 12, 1886.
It is to be hoped the creditable work
lone by Congress during the week is
an earnest of what is to follow fur the
next three months. When the Sen
ate voted to erect a building for the
FJbrary of Congress without one dis-
•■ent-ing voice, the Senators were so
much gratified that many of them
were seen to smile.
Thirteen Democratic Senators vot-
i 1 against the admission of Washing-
Territory as a State, after paying
Cue female voters out there a good
teal of attention. Senator Eustis
--oared that when the women became
IT. S. Senators they would tell all the
secrets connected with executive ses-
- ions. Senator Deck held that the
■women would never be old enough to
come within the constitutional limita-
ions as to age.
The newly appointed Senator from
California, Mr. Hearst. was escorted
to the Capitol by his millionaire col
league, Stanford. After being sworn
he took his seat on the Democrat
ic side, and cast his first vote against
the admission of Washington Territo
ry. Mr. Hearst makes another addi
tion to the already long list of rich
men in the Senate. His daily income
s said to be about -$1,200.* He has

Interesting Interview with Cap
tain J. C. Shaw of Savannah.
been represented by his enemies as
simply a man of money, though
there are probably few men who de-
nd less on wealth and position than
tie. He sunk a good deal of his mon
ey in order to give the Democrats of
Lis state the San Francisco Examiner,
a- daily paper in sympathy with their
views. His only son has chosen jour
nalism for his profession. After fa-
rniJiarizing himself with its details by
beginning at the bottom of the lad
der. he expects to take charge of his
father’s paper.
The House of Representatives also
tooted for the Congressional Library,
voted to pension the Mexican vete-
ans, all that is left of them, and be-
•g.des passing half a dozen bills of more
less importance, defeated the Bland
ill for the unlimited coinage of Silver.
That probably settles tlie silver agita-
ion for the remainder of the season,
leaving the question where it was at
' ;ie beginning of the winter.
An employe of the Government
Tinting Office surprised me by say
ing the demand for speeches on the
e lver question for campaign purpo
ses was greater than for those on po
litical subjects. The largest order
received this session by the public
printer was for William L. Scott's
speech in support of a compromise on
ttie silver question. Mr. Scott is from
Pennsylvania, he is a Democrat, is
the wealthiest mail in the Lower
House, and has been mentioned as a
possible successor to the sick Secreta
ry of the Treasury. The next largest
- rdt r was for Senator Beck’s notable
-peech on silver, which has been call-
od for by members of both parties.
Despite the fact that the President
bus been warned by physicians since
Secretary Manning was stricken
down, he takes no more recreation, or
•exercise than before, but keeps hard
g work. His habits of labor seem to
be so fixed as to admit of no change,
in! lie tells his friends he knows what
lie can do, and that there is no use
talking to him.
More strangers have visited Wash
ington during the present season than
any previous one. They came in
-crow Is to the White House daily, and
Mr. rieveland's hand shaking recep
tion.-, which occur every other day,
are attended by hundreds. Miss Cleve
land's reception throughout the sea
son was very largely attended. Some
of them were such crushes that the
crowd was, at times, admitted three
or four abreast and extra guards were
employed to keep the people in order.
* urious incidents have occurred on
these occasions. For instance, a White
House usher was assaulted by two
women because he would not admit
them fast enough. They were tall,
muscular women, and they bruised
the man badly. It was the intention
to arrest the offenders, and they were
jK)?nted out to a policeman, but on
second thought the matter was allow
ed to pass.
Miss Cleveland bore her part dur
ing the last social season with a great
deal of credit to herself. She showed
much good sense and a good deal of
kind-heartedness. At her last recep
tion. after she had been shaking hands
with thousands, and was necessarily
very tired, the published hour for
closing the house arrived. There was
still a long line of people waiting to
pay their respects. The guards start
ed to close the doors, but she ordered
them left open until all had been ad
mitted.
Capt. J. C. Shaw, General Travel
ing Agent of the Central railroad, was
in the city yesterday. He came to
let the public know through flaming
posters the attractions which the
Chatham Artillery’s centennial cele
bration would oiler. He declared
that from the indications lie believed
that everybody in Georgia would pour
into Savannah upon that occasion.
‘‘It will be a grand gala week,” he
continued, “because the occasion will
bring together the grandest military
gathering ever held in the South.. At
least one hundred companies will be
present, coming from all parts of the
Union. Among them will be some fa
mous the world over for their fault
less drilling. During the celebration
the monument to Gen. Nathaniel
Greene of Revolutionary fame will be
unveiled. Grand pyrotechnic dis
plays will take place every night.”
“ Where are the drill grounds?”
“They are within the city limits,
and are easy of access. They will be
known as Camp Washington.”
“When will the celebration begin?”
“It will begin.on the 3rd of May. A
salute of one hundred guns will be
fired at sunrise. During the day there
will be a grand parade through the
principal streets. During the week
will occur the infantry prize drill of
companies entering for their maiden
drill, the first prize being five hun
dred dollars and the second one hun
dred dollars. Also ‘the free for all'
infantry drill, the first prize being two
thousand five hundred dollars and
the second one thousand dollars. Ar
tillery and zouave drills will also oc
cur. The grand cavalry tournament
will be an interesting feature of the
week. In this the first prize will be
three hundred dollars and the second
one hundred dollars. There will be
individual infantry drills, zouave ex
hibition drills and other interesting
military features entirely too numer
ous to enumerate. The grounds will
be opened daily at 9 o'clock, a. in.
The drills will begin at 10 o'clock, a.
m., and the brigade dress parades will
take place at (3 o’clock, p. m.”
“What rate will the Central rail
road offer?”
“As usual, the Central will offer a
rate that will please the people. It
will be very low, only one cent a mile
each way. Such a rate will doubtless
attract immense crowds. Passengers
will be carried to Savannah on both
regular and special trains."
Here in Macon much interest is
taken in the celebration. Nearly
everybody will attend, including all
the military companies.—Telegraph.
PATENTS GRANTED.
Atlanta is proceeding deliberately m
choosing a route to the sea. She can
not afford to make a mistake and
she is therefore not going to commit
herself until she has accurate and ex
haustive data on which to rest.
There are three xflans under advise
ment: First, the purchase or lease of
that part of the East Tennessee sys
tem which reaches from Atlanta to
Brunswick. Second, the building of
a line from Atlanta to Charleston or
to the Plant system at Yeinassee or to
the Savannah river. Third, the build
ing of a line to the Ocmulgee river at
Hawkinsville. A committee has been
appointed to go to New York to ascer
tain upon what terms Atlanta can
buy or lease the road from Atlanta to
Brunswick: an engineer corps will
be at once put in the field to make pre- j
j liminary surveys of each of the other
routes. Until the committees report
no definite action can be taken.
If it can be bought on reasonable
terms it appears to us the road from
Atlanta to Brunswick offers Atlanta
the best opportunity. It is already
built and in operation. It penetrates
good country and goes direct to a
good port. The road to Charleston—
or towards Chrrleston—offers the best
connection with the ocean, for it
opens Charleston, Port Royal or Sa
vannah to our merchants. The road
to Hawkinsville offers perhaps the
best local trade, and a route to the
sea that its friends claim is perfectly
reliable.—Constitution.
