Special Correspondence.
Washington, August 15. The
United States senate is in a titter,
and has several times laughcl
"right out loud," at the expense oi
its most frigidly dignified member.
Several days ago, during one gf the
numerous roll calls for a quorum,
Senator Edmunds made his ap
pearance at one of the cloak room
doors and answered to his name in
a condition whirh has not been
equaled for grotesqeness since Ben
La Fevre tsonitt years ago raahed
fiotn the bath room to the floor ui
the house of representatives to cast
his vote, clothed entirely with
Turkish towels. The barber had
cut about half of Mr. Edmunds'
hair when his name was called ;
he jumped out of the chair, strode
to the door and answered, his neck
bring all the while encircled by a
white cloth which reached l elow
his knees like a gown, and the
hair on one ride of his head cut
very close and on the other side
unusually long there is none on
top anyway. The effect can better
be imagined than written.
Mrs. Douglass Green, whose ma
riage not many months ajio drove
her husband out of good society
and the banking firm of Bateman
& Co., of New York and Washing
ton, and compelled the newly
wedded couple to gu to Europe to
e.-cape the criticism ot Mr. Green's
former friends, and some said to
keep the lady nut of the hands of
the law for having married without
the legal right to indulge in such
luxuries is xgain in Washington.
She is a guest at one of the highest
priced ho'els in the city, and her
husband is not with her.
Some of the hoys played cruel
joke on a fresh young man sent
here last winter by a promim.-iit
Western paper. He was told that
nil he had to do was to introduce
himself to Senator Edmunds and
ank for any information he might
wish to send his paper about the
business transacted in executive
sessi m ; the fact was irnprefsed
upon his mind that Mr. Edmunds
was the man who furnished the
press with this news. The after
noon of the day the first executive
session was held this youiii; ma'i
tackled the nenator as he was leav
ing the building.

permanent ly paralyzing hhb.
It was two days Deuve the
vounxster was seen at the capital.
and then he could not Jjef coaxed
to go on the senate iidaj of the
building. fs '
Senator Farwell has beto quite
unwell for some time, and yester
day his condition was somewhat
dangerous. Mrs. Farwel, who
was in Chicago was telegraphed
for, and she is expected lere to
morrow. 1 have made a discov ry. It
may not be as important , a soore
of those made by Stanley ia Africa,
but you can judge for Voureelf.
Last night I attended al enter
tainment at a friend'i fwdence.
It was not long befor4Ly esui
were greeted with a faint, far
away tinkle, tinkle, not t.nlike the
merry music of silver sleiJi bells a
long ways off. I could r. , for the
life of me, tell what they were.
Finally I located the sound as com
ing from a merry group of young
people, but the most careful scru
tiny made, of course, on the sly
failed to hIiow winch one the jin
glp came from.
Becoming desperate I asked one
of the young ladies m the afoe
said group ii she heard the tinkle
of the bells. She blushed deeply,
and in some confusion requested
me to get her an ice.
Later I went to my hostess' wife
and asked her for information
about the tinkling bells, whicn I
was beginning to think were the
creation of a disordered brain.
"If you can keep a secret, re
main here a few minutes," she
said as she left the room.
"Is this like what you heard?"
she asked as she returned with one
hand held behind.
"Yes; what is it?" I answered,
eagerly.
"Hush hush! not so loud. It
is Julia's garter." And handing
me a dainty e'rele of yellow satin
with an oxvdi.ed silver clasp.
along the bottom of which were
six of the tiniest, cute little sil
ver bells imaginable, she sat dowr
and laughed at tnv discomfiture.
She then condescended to inform
me that it was the very latest fad
sent over from the home of fads,
Paris.
The silk sashes so generally worn
by men this summer appear harm
less enough to look at ; but they
have gotten one United Statessen-
ator into trouble, and it is not cer
tain by any means that it will not
end in his losing his seat. The
unfortunate man is Senator Vance,
of North Carolina, who. in search
of comfort during the recent tor
rid weather, donned a flannel shirt.
and in place of a vest, a silk sash.
All would have been well if one of
his farmer constituents had not
visited Washington and seen him.
This visit originated the present
light which the Farmers' Alliance
is making on Vance.
Chinese for Mexico.
San Francisco, August
23.-
Among the passengers on the City
of Peking this afternoon was a well
known attorney of this city, who
goes to China to get eight thous
and men, who will be employed in
the construction of the railroad
across the isthmus. The Tehuan
teiec road is to be built by English
money and the work let to IVlexi
can contractors. The attorney
said arrangements had not yet been
made with any steamship company
for the transportation of the men
but they will be landed at Salinas
Cruz in the Gulf of California.

meeting of the directors of the
Portland baseoall club held to
night, Tom Parrott, recently sus

After this action of the directors
Harris at once tendered his resig

A RUNAWAY WIFE FOUND.
Seattle Tel-graph.
An erring woman and perhaps
not altoget her blameless husband
were at police headquarters last
night, as also a third party, a irt.
Paul traveling man with head
quarters in this city. The latter
and the woman were arretted early
in the evening by Detective Barck
at the instance of the husnand,
who claimed the festive traveling
nan had mpplanted him in his
wife's affections. The wife, he
said, had run away from their
home in St. Paul with the travel
ing man, the two having arrived
here about a week ago, at which
time they took up headquarters at
the Jay Cook house on South Sixth
street, near Jackson, where the
couple were ar.eFted. It was the
intention of the huwband to prose
cute the runawav couple for adul-
terv, but on being informed that
Washington is without an adul
tery law he decided to not prefer
the charge. Accordingly upen the
wife s pledges of future taitniui
ness, the two started to retrace
their steps to St. Paul, taking the
boat to Ticoma.
The woman, a beautiful little
brunette not vet 20 vears of age,
claimed that the husband, who is
a practicing physician in St. Paul,
had been guilty of mistreating her
and to such an extent that she
had decided to run away with her
i iormer spouse, lue traveling man,
, nuu vtan niiviiiing uut prepoeseBS'

statement of Webb, as follows:
"I see you have at last ventured
to-break the silence that sealed
your lips in relation to the causes
which led to the di-charge ol 5Uor

planation is even less creditable to
you than silence, and does not in
any way excuse the stand you
have taKen. Your statement is
eminently worthy of men who
can see no cause for an investiga
tion in cases of drunkenness, in
capacity, breach of duty and in
subordination. All these men
have a right to know whether they
were fired for cause. You cannot
assert with any degree of accuracy
that any one of these men were
dismissed for the cause you put
forth. You must depend on the
statement made to you by your
subordinates your superintend
ents and foremen.

THE MCARAUUA CANAL. '
A Company of Americans Ready to
Proceed With the Work.
Philadelphia, August 23. A. L.
Biai kman, president of the Atlan
tic A Pa iiic Ship (.'anal company,
is in the city. He was asked his
teason for the proposed innoduc
tion in congress, by hhu, of a bill
to repeal ihe charter gi anted the
Maritime Ship Canal company of
Nicaragua.
"I am acting solely in the inter
est of my company, which is a cor
poration organized under the laws
of the stae of Nicaragua. It is
composed of ci'izens of the UnLed
Slates. The original and excluive
rights, concessi"ns and grant to
this company to construct and
manage and own a ship canal
across the Nicaragua country, be
tween the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans, were made to Cornelius
Vanderbilt, Joseph L. White, Na
thaniel 11. W olf and others, as
their associates. 'Ihe charter w a
obtained in 18S0, and w s l r a
term of eighty-live years after the
day w hen the canal was complett-d.
Great improvements were made
and large sums of inun- y expend
ed, ine Maritime Ship Canal
company is trying to seize oui
pr. peny in Nicaragua, ana th it
sua 1 not do."
He declared further that the
company was willing to do the
work. He so int'oiined the Nicar
.it:u n government in 1887. But
the agent ol the Maritime company
w as engaged iu negotiations lor the
charter at the time, and the gov
ernment had declared the .conces
sions granted his company va.id.
They were leady now, when il'e
government permitted them, t- go
ahead with the work. All these
statements are embodied in the
bill introduced in congress.

Seattle, August 23. The U. S.
flagship Charleston arrived in
port this evening.
As the cruiser steamed into har
bor a'l the wharves and boats in
right were rilled with speciators.
A salute of fory-four guns was
tire-i iiBweicome and she returned
w ith tweniy-one guns. Ah soouas
she came io an anchorage, about a
quaiter of a mile off the wharves,
a delegation irom the chamber oi
commerce went out to extend
to her officers and men the
hospitalities of the city. They
were received with great cordiality
y Admiral Biown and Captain
Remay and entertained on board
the v-ssel for about an hour. To
night Admiial Brown came ashore
for a veiy few minutes. He says
mat he is here to get a supply ol
about 400 tons of coal and to look
about thia region for a site for a
naval dry dock and a station. He
has no further orders from the de
partment, but is expecting them
by Monday or Tuesday. He scouts
the rumor that Uie ship is going to
benriug sea.
The Charleston will probably be
here for at least a week coaling.
CAN tKANCISCO, AngUst 23. A
special dispatch from Washington
this morning says that all the dip
lomatic reticence in the world can
not efface the impression made by
the news of the sudden appearance
on Puget Sound of the Charleston,
the most nowerlui vessel ol the
United States navy in Pacific
waters. That she should be re
called from Honolulu and ordered,
not to San Fiaicisco, the nearest
port, but to Port Townseud, is
-it'ong evidence that her move
ments have reference to the inten
tion of the government in the
uiattT of the poaching around the
seal islands. Just across the
straits of Juan de Fuca in the
harbor of Esquimalt lies the Brit
ish squadron, headed by the flag
ship Warspite, watching the
movements of the American
dinars. It ib true that when the
Warspite appeared at that station
and inquiries were made concern
ing the purpose of her visit to the
Pacific coast, representatives of
the British government here in
Washington declared that the
cruiser was sent toEsquimalt only
to take part in the customary
naval maneuvers and to relieve
the wiitsure, but it ia an axiom
in diplomacy that language was
invented to conceal thought and
purpose, and the reassuring decla
ration goes for what it ia worth,
and that is nothing at all.
A plainly discemable fact is that
the mo-t powerful warships of the
t vo navies available on the Pacific
coast are confronting each other
in Puget aound, and neither ran
go north to take a nana m tre
poaching business without the
knowledge of the other. The or
ders of Admiral Holham, who
commands the W spite, are a
iarkly mysterious as those which
suddenly recalled the Charleston,
and sent her to Northern waters.
Whether the Warspite would fol
low the Charleston northward in
ase the orders of the latter
should send hr in that direction
Iter coaling up, is a ques'ion that
nobodv can or will answer. Assist
ant Secretary Solev, whenques-
t oned about the Charleston, dip
lomatically denied that there was
anvihing specially significant in
the movements of the Charleston
So far as he knew she would not
go north of the American boun
dary line.
