ury to send steamers to > the relief 'of
officers and crews of whalers impris
oned in the Arctic ocean.
The bill was considered in the house
as in committee of the whole. It was
agreed that when the bill was disposed
of a separate measure would be re
ported , construing the act placing col
ored persons who onliiled in the army
on the same footing as other soldiers
as to bounty and pension , so as to ex
tend its provisions to the heirs of such
soldiers in their claims for military ser
vice. The bill was passed.
McLean said he found a published
letter addressed to him. and to Ellis ,
as members of the committee on Paci
fic railroads , by J. A. George , charg
ing certain bribery and corruption

less than the eit mate.
Mr. Aiken spoke of the importance
of this department In the course of
his remarks he s'ated that tariff legis
lation of the country discriminated
gain&t agricultural interests.
Mr. Kclley denied this , and insisted
that the tsritf bill was of especial ad
vantage to the farmer.
The bill was theu considered by
sections.
Mr. Young , of Tenneuee , offered
an amendment , which was adopted ,
providing that the amount appropria
ted bo at the discretion of tha commis

ments'fdrimproving different varieties
of cotton.
Mr. Gillette offered an amendment
appropriating § 50,000 , to set up appa-
iaus for the manufacturing of sugar

EVENING SESSION.
The session of house J&st night wai
for the purpose of considering the bil
tc organize a court on pensions.
Mr. Fair opposed thc.whole scheme
because be did not believe it could beef
of any avail. :
In the course of discussion Mr.
Warner said the pension law at pres
ent constituted-a dematfd for an an
nual apptopriation of , $38,000,000
besides this applications were.coming
in at the rate of § 8,000 to § 10,000 a
month. If all appropriations now on
file were allowed , there would be re
quired an immediate appropriaton o ;
212,000OOOforJaTeara and pensions.
The roll would thereafter call for an
annual appropriation of § 1,000,000.
Nearly the whole evening tvas taken
up with a discussion of second section
tif the bill which defined the class oi
cues that might coino before the
court.'sre.ated by the bill. It was Jn-
sieted on one hand and 3enied on the
other that the biil gave such origins :
jurisdiction that cases that bad never
been before the commissioner of pen
sions might be brought before the
court and that it therefore opened the
door to every man who had served in
the array'whether he was under disa
bility ornot. The section was amended
to limit jurisdiction to appealed
ciscs. Without disposing of the 'bill '
the house adjourned. -

Rumors That Courtney , Who
is Reported Sick-is
Shamming.
That Hanlan May Beat Him In
.tbo Great Race To-Day.
Special dispatch to The lice.
WASHINGTON , May 19 1 a. m
From outward indications it is safe to
predict that Courtney is doomed to
defeat in bia great racu to-day with
Haulan. All signi indicate his de
feat. All prospect predict it and bet
ting is nearly three to ono against him
with few takers at these odds. The
change in the general feeling as to the
probability of the race has been sud-
ien and decided. Hanlan has been
the favorite from the start , but up to
yesterday it has been generally con- '
: oded that the result wa < doubtful.
Two events have contributed to bring
about a change , the first is the arrival
of a large number of Canadians with
jockets full of money and anxious to
> et. They have frightened Courtney's
letters and bulled Haulan stock nntil
at nine o'clock last night they were
offering 100 to 35 on their favontc.and
inding occasional takers. An impor.
ant event alto was another mishap to
Juurlney. Ho took a hard pull yes-
erJay morning and was afterward *
eTztd with "violent pains which lusted
lim all day. A few held to the belief
, hnt Courtney was only shamnrn ? and
hat it was a trick imcntcd to Inar
Courtney stock , but careful Inquiry
ihnns th it tin headache is both gcnu-
tie and ceverd. The public g ner lly
s inclined to believe that is an cvi-
lence that Courtney has not recovered
mm his sunstroke and is no longer
, Ho to pull a hard race. News of his
ndisposition has revived the predic-
ion that lie would not row and that
iiley would yet have to make up
ho raco. Courtney himself
repudiates this idea. "I shall certainly
> ut in an appearance if I live , and
hall row as fast and as long as I can , "
10 said. These are outward indica-
ions and if there is not some trickery
> ehind it all it seems more than proba
ble that Hanlan must win. He is in
irime condition which Courtney ccr-
ainlyisnot. The race will not bo
tarted until very late in the afternoon
n order that Courtney may not bo af
ected by the aun. If , therefore , his
icadache should prove to be unim-
rortant and there should bo no return
if it , erne otheraccidentshould occur
luring the race it will not be a walk
over for Hanlan. There has been
ome talk tliat Hanlan intended to
ell out the race and let Courtney win ,
mt there is no evidence of snch inton-
ions and Hanlan denounced the re-
> ott as a lie.
The rae will bo witnessed by an
mmense concourse of spectators ,
irobably larger than has ever before
; athered at a boat race in this coitn-
ry. Therace isset'fbr 4:30 : o'clock , but
t will probably not bo started before

GLADSTONE AND RUtSIA.
Special Bupatch to Tbe Bee.
LONDON , May 19 1 a. m. The
effect of the acccsioa of the Gladstone
ministry to power already begins to be
apparent. Abroad it is well under
stood that Gladstone is such an ad
mirer of RUSMA and is EO thorougnly
on her side in every way that he will
not permit any obstacle to be thrown
in her path by England , consequently
Russii is now moving forward more
rapidly than formerly in her schemes
of conquest in the far East. It is re
ported that she is about to send an
army corpi of 24COO , men to make a
demonstration on the Chinese frontier
and thus , take the first step in the
campiign , which , however protracted
it may be , has for its ultimate pur
pose the pushing of the Russian con
quest to the China sea.

There is every Indication o7a lively
time in the convention to-morrow. I !
the Grant men have a majority they
threaten to select , by a committee ol
the convention , forty two delegates ,
and to instruct them to vote
as a unit for Grant. It IOOKS this af
ternoon as the regular delegates from
Cook county will stand a tair show ol
admission , though ther.i is no tell
ing what the bulldozing ol
Grautites may accomplish between
now and noon to-morrow. Should
themachinists insist upon the rejection
of the whole or part of the regular
delegation , there w ill bo trouble and
perhaps two conventions. Wash-
burno and Bliine men through
out the state will stand by
the regu'ara from Cook to the extent ,
it is claimed , of withdrawiug with them
if the outrage of ousting them , is per
petrated. It is proposed by some to
ask the Grant managers this afternoon
whether they will consent to admit
the regulars ; and if not to start a second
end conventou of Blaine and Wa h-
burne men in the senate chamber sim
ultaneously with the opening of the
Grantite convention in the house.
The outlook for a peaceful solution
of the Cook county difficulty is not at
present promising. The Grantites are
moving heaven an earth to secure a
majority. The central committee , of
which the Grantites have a majority , at
its mooting this evening will select a
temporary chairman. Some violent
Grantites propose toseathim by physi
cal force , if necessary. The committee
on credentials is evenly divided out
side of Cook county.

dard. The opposition do not present
any figures as to their strength in the
convention , and virtually concede a
majority to Grant. They have hopes
of overcoming tins by superior man
agement with regard to the Cook coun
ty split.
RUMOEED COMPROMISE.
Rumors yesterday were current of a
compromise between Logan and Far-
well , leaders of the two factions , but
it could not bo traced to a reliable
source. The Washburno men resent
the assertion that they are under Far-
well's control. Grant leaders from
Chicago say that they will have at
least 30 of their delegates seated. A
meeting of delegates elected by cena-
borial districts at. the Palmer house ,
Chicago , was held yesterday , Robert
Lincoln , president , and Stephen A.
Douglas , secretary. R. S. Tuthill ad
dressed the meeting , and said that the
men elected by the Farwcll hall con
vention were boldly and loudly pro
claiming about the streets that they
did not propose to submit to the state
convention unless action was favorable
to them , or , in other words , they don't
propose to let the convenfaosVsay who
were the proper delegates and who
were not. Wo came down here with
our case , wo believe it It a good one ,
we will lay it bsforo the state conven
tion , and as good republicans wo pro
pose to abide by the result of its deci
sion. Ho believed he spoke the mind
of all present in taking that ground ,
and he knew that it was the position
that would win , and ho therefore of
fered the following resolutions , which
were adopted :
WHEBEAS , There u a contest as to
the delegations from several senatorial
districts in Cook county to the atato
convention ; and ,
WHEREAS , This delegation , repre
senting the friends cfGcn. Grant ,
have confidence in the justness of our
cause , as it will bo made to appear to
the state convention , and also in the
sense of right and disposition ta do
straightforward justca which wo be
lieve the state convention will exer-
cisa in passing upon and deciding the
question at issue in the contest from
Cook county. Therefore , be it
Resolved , That we will submit our
cause to the state convention , and , as
true and reliable republicans , we will ,
in good faith , abide by its decision.

MAY FESTIVAL.
The Cincinnati Musical Festi
val Auspiciously Opens.
Everything a Success Save the
Soprano Soloist.
Special digpa'ch to Tns BEX.
CINCINNATI , May 19. 1 a. m.
The city is filled with strangers to at
tend the musical festival and beauti
ful weather shows off the decorations
to excellent advantage. These , though
elaborate and beautiful in many in
stances , hardly equal previous eiforts.
Over seven thousand persons assem
bled to attend the first concert of the
festival. At the hour for closing the
doors every seat was filled and prompt
ly at 7:30 : Theodora Thomos.tbe man
ager , mounted the stage and the festi
val of 1880 was in full blast. The
opsning selection was from Bach ,
adapted by Mr. Thomas , and was in-
troducedby an organ prelude , com
posed for the occasion by Mr. Whit
ney , of Boston. The soloists were
Miss Norton , Miss Annie Louise
Gary , Campanini and Mr. Whitney.
Every member was well sustained , but
with all local prestige in laver of the
soprano soloist , the fact was admitted
ou all sides that this important part
was only fairly , while all others were
admirably suog. Mozart's symphony
in C Major closed the first part and
ihowed the magnificent orchestra with
3ne effect. This is the first time in
iho history of the festival that the or
chestra has been equal to the require
ments of the hall. A chorus and a
selection from Handel , adapted by
Frank.on the great organmado up the
second part of the concert. Among
; he throng of vi itors are many of the
nest emit ] cut musical men of the couii-
: ry , including musical critics of all the
eadin ? journal" , leading composers
and others.
