Wahhinoton,March 27 ^The republi^^can senators held a well attended caucus^to-day prior to th i meeting of the senate.^The subject under consideration was with^reference to putting all clerks on the an^nual HsU, payment to be made out of the^contingent fund. The general sentiment^was In favor of doing this, but the question^of legality waa raised. The caucus^decided the employment of clerks which^would result In an overdraft upon the con^^tingent fund was Illegal. Therefore the^scheme to make all committee clerks an^^nual clerks will fail. A resolution was^adopted, however, to give Senator Vance,^of North Carolina, a personal clerk. He^has lost one eye and the sight of the other^la falling, and bis colleagues deemed^It only just that he ahould be spared the^necessity of using his remaining eye to^conduct his official correspondence. It was^also finally decided not to continue the^debate on the election outrages. The gen^eral opinion, so far a* expr*-ased. was that^the senate might reasonably expect to be^able to adjourn Wednesday or Thursday of^next week.

Washisgtok.March 86.-There being^no quorum preaent when the supreme^court met to-day, an adjournment waa^taken until to-morrow. Should a quorum^be In atteudauce then the court will Im^^mediately proceed to the hearing of argu^^ments In the case of Chae Chan Ping, ap^^pellant, vs. the United States. This case^Involves the constitutionality of the Scott^exclusion act, approved by the president^Oct. 1, 1HHH The facta In the case aa^set forth iu the statement of^the counsel for the appellant upon a motion^to advance the caae for arguuient are as^follows: The appellant is a Chinese labor^^er and a subject of China, and departed^from the United Slates for China June ^,^1HS7. Before doing so tc applied lor and^obtained from the collector of the port of^San Kranciaco the return certificate re^^quired by section 4 of the Chinese restric^^tion set of May 6.1HH2, as amended July 5,^IM84 He returned to the Unltod Slalea^October 7, 1NHM, and presented his certifi^cate to the collector and claimed the^rlgjit to laud thereunder, but pernils^sto^ was refused by the collector^on the sole ground that under the provis^^ions of the act commonly known as the^.scott exclusion act of October 1, lKhh, the^certificate presented by the appelleut had^been declared void and of no riled. He^sued out a writ of habeas corpus In the^United states circuit court and afler the^hearing the court ordered the appailaut re^^manded to the custody from which he had^been taken. This custody was the captain^of tf ^ ship which had brought him back to^the I lilted Mates.
Fromthat judgment of demand he has^appealed to tbla court The counsel for^U.e appellant contend that the question In^^volved In this case is whether thst portion^of the act of Oct 1,1HKH, declaring taUirers'^certificates void and of no effect is valid and^consti;utional. As will be perceived, this^proposition involves a question of both na^^tional and international importance.^The counsel further contend that^the laborers who departed from the^l imed states with these return certificates^weie guaranteed by the treaty between^the United States and China of Nov. 17,^lsmi. and the act of May 6, 1KK2, the right^to go and come, and without warning or^notice this treaty Is virtually abrogated^and Ihe vested rights acquired thereunder^are entirely swept away. The faith and^honor of the government, they say, is also^involved in the case now before the court.^These certificates contain upon their face^a promise on the part of the government^that the holders thereof sha 1 upon presen^^tation of ttie certificates be entitled^to return and re-enter the United States, If^the act Is unconstitutional, counsel say It Is^necessary a speedy determination of this^case should t.e had, so thst the laborers^may return and avail themnelves of the^rights and privileges given to them by the^treaty aud act of 1KKU; and If the act Is^valid, it is just as necessary it should be so^determined immediately, so those who^have acquired property Interests here may^take some means of protecting those inter^^ests.
KxGovernor Hoadley, of Ohio, and^James C. Carter, of New York, will rep^^resent the case lor the appellant before the^court and Solicitor-General Jenks will ap^^pear for the government J. F. Swift, re^^cently confirmed as minister to Japan, At^torney-General Johnson, of California, and^s. M. White, of California, will also be^present to look after the Interests of the^state of California in the case.

CERTAINLYTHE CONSKUVA.
lothIrlflVrenee of Opinion mm to the Iden^^tity of tha Wrawkeil ktteamiei.
NkwYokk, March 27. ^ It Is now gener^^ally believed the steamer Conserve sunk^with all on board, though Henry Kuhnhard^has a different theory. He believes If the^Conserva collided with soother vessel, she^would not be cut In two, but that the other^vessel would. He thinks the Conserve's^boats were lowered to help the persons on^the other vessel and abandonded on ac-^ount of a heavy sea. He thinks the white^chairs and sofas belonged to the steamer^Nantlcoke, not tbe Conserva. The let^^ter's furniture Is painted In colors.
NkwYokk, March 27.^There Is little^doubt now that the Conserve Is the l!!-fstod^ship which strewed the Virginia coast last^week with wreckage of her flintier*. Not^^withstanding reports to the contrary, the^Conserve was unseaworthy. It Is said by^the oiler who was t ngaged for the trip, but^ho declined to go after rinding out the^condition of the vessel, that the boilers^lesked, as did also her hull. The Conserva^had twenty-seven souls on board. Her^crew was entirely composed of southern^half-breeds and Malays. Cant John Henry^Ankers, who has had a long aud some-^hat dickered career In West Indian^waters, commanded the ship. The other^officers were: Klrst mate.

LotnnvittB,Ky.. March 27.^Regarding^President Harrison's diplomatic appoint^^ments. Mr. Watterson will say in to-mor^^row's Courier-Journal; ^There Is no deny^lug that tbe administration Is getting In^some very astute political and party work^In Its appoint men!.- to office. With the ex^^ceptions of Wanamaker and Tanner, Mr.^Harrison, whilst selecting active and ortho^^dox republicans of the most pronounced^description, has shocked no popular or^moral sensibility, but has rather Impressed^the country with the idea that he Is a clear^^headed, well-intentioned man, working for^the best with great Intelligence within his^wn party lines. The batch of diplomatic^nominations sent to tbe senate yesterday^completes the list of foreign placed of im^^portance to be filled, aud though containing^some surprises It will, on the whole, give^urelty general satisfaction. The nomin^^ation of Hubert Lincoln as minister to^Kugland la at onoe a surprise and a ten-^stroke. Taken in connection with the^selection of Fred Grant for Vienna, it con^^eys an appeal to the young republicanism^the period which cannot fail to^ave Its effect Both these sons of^illustrious sires are American gentlemen^without reproach and fully iiuailtied per^^sonally and officially to represent the coun^^try handsomely and adequately in the old^orld. In bringing the journalism of the^party to the front and stimulating that lm-^Hulant branch of party set vice, the presi^^dent shows both wisdom and sagacity. No^better minister to France could have been^tound In any walk of life than Whltelaw^Ueid and tno titter consul-general to I .on^m than John f New. Now we have^Murat Halstead to Germany, and Thorn-^I) ke Kice to Knssla. Mr. Klce Is editor of^the North American Review, a man of^many accomplishments and large fortune,^whose knowledge of European life^and affairs Is very great and haa^not been obtained by the sacrifice^of bis Americanism. The selection of Mr.^lalstead for I Scrim is a particularly happy^^ne. He is already well known to the^fernians. In tbe Franco-German war be^was the compaulon and gueat of Von^Molt Le, met the great chancellor familiarly^nd often, and will be no stranger to the^court to which he is accredited. He Is per^^sonally both a handsome and a brilliant^lan, and will appear nowhere without dla-^inction. The rest of the appointments^are all In the aame line, particularly that^Patrick Kgan, which must at this mo^^ment be very gratifying to the Irish on^both sides of the water, it costs us not h^ng to say these things. The contest he^ween the democratic and republican par^^ties four years hence will turn upon^he irreconcilable antagonisms of opinion,^u the meantime It Is of Interest to all men^have the business of tbe country, par^^ticularly our representation abroad, in the^' ends ol capable aud good men, aa It can^uever be to the interest of any party to^raise false personal Issues or deny politl^ally a measure of justice which socially^no one would think of withholding All^he appointments we have named are in-^ivldually excellent aud from a purely par^^tisan standpoint made with admirable dis^^cernment and keen foresight

SamKhancihco, March 27.^A special^to the Kxaminer from Knsenada, Lower^California, says: A discovery is reported^here which is said to be filling the Interna^^tiona) Land company people with dread.^It Is said that by a mistake In the Kuglish^map at the time of the treaty of Ouadalnpe^Hidalgo the boundary line ber-^een the^United States and Mexico was placed sixty^miles too far north, aud t'.iat the real^bouudary terminates on the Pacific^ocean at a point some distance^south of Knsenada. The treaty prescribes^tbe line shull cut the mouth of the Color^^ado river, but tbe Kuglish maps extant at^the time had the Ulla river, whose mouth^Is near Yuma, Incorrectly marked ss the^Colorado river. The mouth of the Colorado^river Is sixty miles south of Yuma, at

Forthe first ten rounds Needham did all^the leading, getting in tbe most of the^heavy blows, which were pretty well dis^^tributed over liitmore's face, neck and^body, white (lilmore frequently countered,^though less heavily. No dangerous work^had l^een done so far and no knockdown^had occurred, though each had been forced^to the ropes.

In the nineteenth Needham be^^gan rushing and there was a lively ex-^change, (illmore acted on tbe defensive.^In the twentieth round he had two eyes In^mourning and was nearly winded. Need-^ham's right eye was badly swollen, but^that waa about all; he was in good condi^^tion. Needham forced the fighting from^the start and rushed his man all around^the ring. Finally his opportunity came^and he landed ou (iilmore's neck and the^latter went to the floor. Just before time^was called (iiimore staggered to his feet,^but was groggy and almost done for.

If we cannot agree on^the amount ot the stake 1 will fight Rea^^gan for $1,000 a side before either^of the California athletic clubs If they^will offer a purse of 82.000 or $8,000.

To show^tow anxious 1 am to fight K-agan for any^amount worth training tor, 1 would be^willing to meet blm under Marquis of^gueensbury rules, although championship^battles are always decided under Lon^^don rules. After our last fight^Keagan clsimed it was nothing but^a wrestling match, and that I won because^1 was better at that sport As a matter of^fact, before the tight began a friend of^Keagau's told my friends Johnny would^give me $250 to change the rules to Queens-^berry rules. 1 cau beat him as easily that^way as under Loudon rules.
