Beeet by Oflee heekert. WASUtSCTOV, March 17.—The change that has come orer the senate was ap parent to most inexperienced observers ■ today. As soon as the body had ad- < journod after its brief session, the army j of office seekers who hare been throng ing the corridors for days had an op portunity to1 see their senators, and they all found their way to the demo cratic side of the chamber, with the re sult that nearly cTeiy senator was soon sammnded by a group of wistful-eyed men. and then was soon obliged, in self defense, to flee to the retiring commit tee rooms. On the other side of the chamber, the republican senators sat at their ease and were unmolested observ ers of the scene. Some jokingly com plained that they had lost popularity and the leaders, who rarely have a mo ment to themselves, had leisure today to sit quietly and commiserate with their hard beset colleagues, on the dem- ' WTitic Mae. Several of the republican t senators talked earnestly with Senator i Stewart, possibly in explanation of the party necessity which had impelled ! them to drop him from the minority ! membership on the appropriations com- 1 mittee. Jf he feela any soreness over j this matter Senator Stewart manage* to conceal it very effectually. He pro fesses to be entirely satisfied with his situation, being at liberty to rote with either party or against any measures which do not commend themaelres to his judgment, irrespective of party con siderations. Coastltatloa mt the I'alM States. Wasuisotos, March IT.—Erery pre caution will be taken by the state de partment to preTent any mishap to that corner stone of the republic—the orig inal constitution of the I'nited States— during its exhibition at the world's fair. It will form a part of the state depart ment exhibit, and a new case has been constructed to preserve the old docu ment from possible injury or lesa. It is in a fairly good state of preservation. The new case is almost perfectly tire proof. The same care will be taken of the declaration of independence, the articles of confederation of the colonies and the other historical government ex hibits. Princess Kaiulani and snit were en tained at a luncheon yesterday on the receiving ship Dale, stationed at the Washington navy yard, by the com manding officer and Mrs. Houston.

A. W. (irip. the Swedish minister; Mr. tlozo Tateno, the Japanese minister; Mr. J. Pateno tre, the French minister, and Prince Cantocuzen, the Russian minister. Arrangements have been made for a reception of the members of the diplo matic corps by President Cleveland at the w-hite house Saturday afternoon, when the doplomats will be formally nresented to the president. Will Not Accept Lightweight Geld. Washixgtox, D. C., March 1’.—Sena tors Wolcott and Teller of Colorado called this morning and had an inter view with Secretary Carlisle upon the subject of the light weight of Denver, Colo., gold. The secretary pointed out the statutes to them regulating his action in the premises and the govern ment officers at Denver were tele graphed not to accept lightweight gold except by weight. When lightweight gold is offered the government, and the parties offering it refuse to sell it by weight, it is returned to them with the word •‘light" stamped across its face, the same as the word “counterfeit” is stamped across the face of a bad note. The treasury department has found that much of the gold offered, in addi tion to that offered by Denver, was lightweight by reason of “sweating.” In all instances the lightweight has been made good or the gold has been accepted at its actual weight. The law provides that gold.more than one-half of 1 per cent below the standard weight of tolerance, which is 358.10 grains to the dollar, cannot be accepted by the Treasury department at its face value, but only by its actual weight. Te Open the Cherokee Strip. Washington, March IT.—Active prep arations are about to be begun by Secre tary Hoke Smith for opening the Cher I okee Strip under the provisions of the ! Indian appropriation act ratifying the [ agreement with thevCherokees. The j preliminaries to be observed prior to | opening the outlet to settlement by ] proclamation of the president will con sume considerable time. Seventy al- I lotments are to be made to Indians who i were bona tide residents of the Strip ! prior to November, 1891, and engaged : in farming, and the Strip is to be i opened to settlement under the provis ions of the act to organize Oklahoma territory.

March 16.—More than SD.iiO bulletins and reports already wrapp’d for mailing in the department of agriculture will hare to be unwrap ped for the purpose of extracting from them the customary notice to the effect that each document is sent “with the compliments of or by direction of the secretary of agriculture. The last sun dry civil bill contained a clause prohib iting this information being given. "It is law.” said Secretary Morton, "and we will adhere to it closely, although for me oven part I think it would be a good thing if documents thus distributed gratuitously from a department of yie government should inform the citizens receiving them as to their source and intent."’ DODOE IS DOSE FOB. THERE WILL BE A NEW CROP j STATISTICIAN Secretary Morton Will Replace the Vet era a el the Agricultural Department . with Mr. Henry W. Robinson of gleh- | Igau—Importance of the Poaitioo. Washington. March 18.—Secretary ! of Agriculture Morton in about to i make an appointment in his depart* i ment. which will cause a sensation. ! The veteran statistician of the depart- ' ment. Mr. Alfred Dodge, who gives to ! the country the monthly crop report, ! will be retired and his place will be I filled by I.abor Commissioner Henry j IV. Robinson of Michigan. The ap- j point ment has been fully decided upon and it will be officially announced the early part of neat week. ' It is an appointment wholly within the pro vince of the Secretary of Agriculture, being a chief of one of his department bureaus. Notwithstanding this fact Mr. Morton has regarded the appoint ment of such importance that he has submitted the papers to President Cleveland in order to have the Presi dent's approval ftf the change. The government statistician of the Agricultural Department exercises more influence upon the money affairs of the country than gpy other officer of the government, not excepting the Secretary of the ^Treasury. The monthly crop report, issued at 3 o'clock on the 10th of each month, fixes, to a large extent, the price of wheat cotton, corn and all other 'agricultural prodnrts. The produce exchanges of New York. Chicago. St. Louis and elsewhere arc largely controlled by the information given in these month ly crop reports. At critical stages of the market the government report has been eagerly awaited and has been at times the foundation of fortunes. The successor to Air. Dodge, Mr. Robinson, has been an applicant for the position of Commissioner of Labor to succeed Carroll D. Wright, but Mr. < leveland is so well satisfied with Mr. Wright's equipments that he will make no change. Mr. Robinson's influence, which in cludes the foremost Democrats of Mich igan. has therefore been transferred toward making him the statistician of the agricultural department. Secre tary Morton said yesterday that sta tisticians were like poets—born, not made—and he was satisfied that Mr. Robinson was a born statistician. Mr. Robinson was a candidate for Congress against Representative Chipman of Detroit four years ago. but has since allied himself with the Democratic party. _ IN EACH OTHER’S ARMS Despondent Husband and Wife Commit Suicide in Tennessee. Mtt.ax, Tenn..March 18.—In a lonely cabin near Roelfoot Lake, in Lake County, there was discovered yester day the dead bodies of a man and woman clasped in each others’ arms. An empty revolver lying between them told the tale. The bodies were those of Abner Carter and his wife, who lately moved into the county from Iowa. Some weeks ago the couple had a mis understanding, terminating in a do mestic brawl, in which the woman was severely beaten. She left her husband, but a reconciliation was effected. Last Saturday their infant died and they became 'despondent and ended their troubles in death. A note lying by the bedside said: Neighbors, we are going home, never to return. We werb miserable in life but will be happy in death. Farewell. Abner and Jennie Carter. Must Declare Intention. yi ahusgtox, March 18.—Secretary Carlisle is at present inclined to ad here to the ruling- made by secretary Foster as to licensing the engineer' officers of the steamships New York and Paris of the American line. The tt*l. prorides that when the in tention of becoming American citizens is declared six months previous to the application for license, the Secretary of the Treasury may issue licenses to foreigners as en gineers on American ships. The engineers on the Paris and New York declared their intentions in accordance with law, and will take out their naturalization papers in due course. CeMS- of this kind are quite common on ships and steamers that ply on the Great Lakes. Will Kot let Women Tote. LAKSixe, Mich., March 18.—The bill granting municipal and. school . suf frage to women failed of pasia^e in the House of Representatives bv 13 votes, the votes standing 38 yeas to 39 nays. Many members were*fearful of going on record, and therefore re frained from voting. Representative Barkworth, the leader of the Democ racy in the House and a strong sup rfrterof the bill, was absent It is claimed that had he heen present the entire Democratic vote would have been thrown for the measure and it would hare carried. The vote by which the bill failed to pass was re considered and the measure was tabled. Bride M, Bridegroom 30.

Cleveland and the Senate^ YVashixstox. March 18.—A story has been published to the effect that Presi dent Cleveland had inaugurated a big fight against the senate because of his displeasure on account of the manner in which the committees of that body hare been organized. It was said that Mr. Cleveland was very icdigpant because of Mr. Hill’s assignment as a member of the judiciary committee and Mr. Murphy’s to the committee on com merce. and that he had served notice on the senate that no nominations would be sent until these assignments were changed. The story is incorrect. Mr. Cleveland might have been better pleased if the committees— for instance that on finance —had been organized differently, but he has not and does not intend to man ifest any displeasure or disappointment he may feel. Mr. Cleveland recognizes the fact the senate has a perfect right to organize its committees to suit itself and he has no desire to interfere. Several senators whose attention was called to the published story unani mously denied any knowledge of the alleged strained relations between the senate and the president. Cabinet Meeting. Wasiiixgtos, March 18_The number of callers at the white house yesterday was much smaller than usual, it being cabinet day. The rush ended at abont 11 o'clock, when Secretary Carlisle, the first member of the cabinet to put in an appearance, entered the mansion. The cabinet was in session for about an hour and a half, although several of its members stayed behind for some time longer, discussing the affairs of the departments with the president. All of the members remembered that today was the 60th anniversary of the birth of the secretary of state, and did not fail to congratulate Mr. Gresham. Secretary of War Lamont suggested that it would be the president's turn tomorrow to receive congratulations, as he will celebrate his 58th birthday on that day. England's Position on Silver. Washington, March 18.—Senator Teller was yesterday asked for his opin ion respecting the declaration of the chancellor of the exchequer in the house of commons that the British del egates would be instructed to oppose every bimetalist scheme presented at the monetary conference. The senator said that Great Britain would absolute ly oppose free coinage of silver on terms of equality with gold. That was what she had always done, and nobody ex pected her to do any more at this time, but there was nothing in this position irreconcilable with the attainment of the object of the conference, namely, the extended use of silver as a money metal. In fact this was evidence to show that Great Britain really desired to do something in that direction. Her financiers realized the necessity for some palliative measure and something to prevent the further depreciation of silver, which, if continued, must result in the total destruction of the present monetary system. If that occurred the future of silver would be assured, but nobody wished to adopt such a heroic measure to achieve the desired result. He had no doubt that England would be willing to support a reasonable prop osition that was more practicable than the Bothschild scheme. Took s Woman’s Revenge. Washington, March 18.—Mrs. Simon Xieolaides, the wife of the proprietor of a fashionable bric-a-brac store on F street in this city, with a branch at Sar atoga, X. Y., turned that establishment into a scene of destruction about noon yesterday. The affair caused consider able excitement, as it occured at a time when that thoroughfare was crowded with ladies. The first intimation that any one had was when the front win dows fell with a crash on the pave ment. A crowd at once collected and the first on the scene found Mrs. Xico laides in the window with a large *300 vase in her hand destroying everything within her reach. She then jumped from the window and went through the aisle of the store, smashing all the cases and everything in them. The store was immediately closed and the police offi cers stationed outside of it. Mr. Xico laides disappeared after the trouble. Jealousy on his wife's part of one of his employes is assigned as the reason of the outbreak. Seeking Barrie. Washington, D. C., March 18.—Indi ana made the largest showing of force at the white house today, the congres sional delegation escorting Governor Matthews and introducing him to the president. The governor, in passing through the city, called to pay his res pects. The delegation, however, seized the opportunity to make a few timely sug gestions, and Representative Martin , presented the name of Jerome Herlf of fern, Ind.. to be consul at Havana. The name of Joshua Jump of Terre Haute was presented for collector Of in ternal revenue. “Joshua Jump,” said the president. “Umph! Well, Jump is a good name for a collector.” Representative Bynum entered S. W. Ralston for collector of internal reve nue for the Seventh district. Senator Palmer of Illinois introduced J. C. Donnelly of Woodstock, who wants to be United States marshal for the northern district of Illinois. Slou Indian Baud at the Fair. Niobrara. Neb., March 18.—Prof. J. F.
