The cotton men prepared a meas
ure "to make bills ol laaine conelu

the baii of u investigation . of the
aubject b the House Judiciary Com

evinced an ttppoitjon to such a meaav

A raincttt'! the committee
thounh, and with .this we are to deal
are of a contrary opinion, and accord'
engly support tv mvasure in conso
nance win we views ot the cotton
otiventiosa, This minority sav:
' An art ' of Congress defining the
niiiw oj imiToads ana other corpora
tioiia, or pirmas, engaged as common
rat ncrs ana as noiaers ot bills of lad'
ing in good faith, is necessary for the
protection of merchant and bankers,
and, in facti of all who are interested
in maintaining the reliability and vast
nwIulncBS. of these instruments of
omnierce.
The measure proposed by the mi
aority of the committee, led by Col
uates of Alabama, is as follows:
That whenever an aommon nrrler bv
Unit r water sias and deliver! any bill of
lautnf or instrument in lue nature tnrreot
rurpirting to be for roods, wares, or mer
chandise received by auch carrier for trans-
portaiion irom toe Mate to another within
the United fc'tate, or to any foreign country,
aeon bill of lading or instrument in the nat
re thereof, in the handi ot any bona tide
holder for valuable tonsideration whe ac

thereof wan signed and delivered by a per
son who wo not the event of such carrivr to

uiijb 'i lauiug loereior.
Of Into years it has been a common
practice in the fkiuth and West to ob
tain bills of lading from railroads or
other common earners for cotton,
v. neat or omer articles ot commerce,
and then attach the bill to a draft on
the consignee or banker or factor in
New York or lioston, and draw the
money thereon. In the event that
the cotton or other commodity for
which the carrier, through its agent,
gave the bill of lading fails to deliver,
aim is sueu upon mat hill, it lias been
helil bv tho Kunreme Court of tin.
United St?U.s that, if the goods named
in the bill were not in fact delivered
to the carrier, the carrier company is
him rt'Htoimiuit:.
The purpose of tho bill of the mi
nority and that submitted by the Cot
ton r.xcMHiige, 1,01. uaies says, is a
good one, and should meet the favor
able consideration of ConcreRS. In
answer to the objection as to dishon
est agents, noteu above, it is replied
that this risk is run by banks and all
otht r corporations, as none of them
can act except through an agent.
"Tlte equitable principle that, where
one of two persons must bear a loss,
he who is least in fault must be ex
onerated, should be applied to this
class of cases. The courts having held
otherwise, this can be done only by
. legislation."
As is well known, the Kansas Citv,
Fort Scott and (.iulf railroad have
their line from Kansas City to Mem
phis now concluded and in full opera
tion, also from Kansas City to Baxter
Springs, Kas. They are 'now before
Congress asking the right of way
through Cherokee Indian Territory to
the northwest corner of Arkansas,
and again from the town of Kvans
ville to Fort Smith, Ark., which will
enable an extension of the line
through a fine agricultural region in
Benton and Washington counties,
Arkansas, thickly settled with indus
trious and enterprising people. Mr.
1'eel of Arkansas, who represents the
district directly interested, has charge
of the measure, and will, if possible,
secure its favorablo consideration at
the present session.
The Senate Committee on Post
offices have recommended the passage
of a bill releasing Miss Kosa Wallace
from all liability for 3S1 which was
lost by a robbery of the mails near
Hope, Ark., in 1884.-.
Mr. Neat has presented to tho.
Claims Committee, the application of
Mm. Eliza E. Weir of McMinn coun
ty, daughter, 'ot. Lcamnn L. Ball, de
ceased, for reimbursement for beef
appropriated by the army.
The committee have favorably con-
BKiereu uie vm iiroposeu ny Mr. Cald

licia Cheatham, for the benefit of the
latter and her four children, f 152,074.,

presented measures to the committee
for a number of Tennesseans, as fol
lows: ,
To pay the legal representatives of
H. Trevathon J'577 as compensation
for stock and supplies taken!! y army.
B. B Bunch, ;tOio fr supplies arid

ewton, $4,004.60 for quar ermast'ers'
stores. J. F. Huddleston, 8:6 for

The Committee on Claims of the
Senate recommended that George W.
Saulpowbepaid $7000 as compensa
tion for his boat, called Alfred Kobb,
seized in the Tennessee river bv the
United States in 1802.
The Senate Committee on Pensions
have agreed to support the bill pHssed
by the House to increase from $8 to
40 a month the pension of ltoliert D.
Fort, a memler of Capt. Richard Ben
son " company of Tennessee militia
in 1814.
A statement prepared by the Treas
ury Department shows that during
the last year there was transported,
without. appraisement, to the iwirt of
Memphis,:iM packages of merchandise,
of which the invoice value wa l.t,-
871. and the duty thereon $ti5H7 t'3. I
The report of the Committee on
Pensions on tlie bill granting pen- j
sions to the Mexican war veterans;
contains a Ftniomcnt giving the num
ber of men furnisln-d "jy each State
for that service. It is even from this
that Tennessee was fifth in rank as to
the nuuiler of vol inters, the State
being credited with t:fi2men.
Mr M-rtin of Aubania has intro

llerahi special ; The friends of Mr.
liancroft, the historian, will be grieved
to learn that Mrs. Bancroft divd this
evening at 9:30. She had been gravely
ill for a number of weeks, but until
within a few days it was believed
that she might regain Iter strength
with the approach of spring, as was
the case last year, and be able to re
turn to Newport for the summer. Bi.t
her life was too greatly exhausted by
the disease from which she had long
Buffered. Mrs. Bancroft will be sorely
missed by the numerous circle of
friends she had drawn around her in
this city. Her bright conversation,
her constant cheerfulness and gayety
amid almost constant suffering, "and
her unflagging interest in all that went
on in the political and social world
here and abroad, made her house
the most charming in Washington,
and her acquaintance was sought and
enjoyed alike by statesmen and byjthe
youuger ami gayer part of society,
ller strong sympathy with ivery good
cause and her admirable judgment of
men and events made her conversa
tion delightful and instructive to those
who were admitted to her :riendshu
and who regarded her with affection
ate reverence. Like her husband, she
retained her faithful sympathies in
her old age, and no oneVho knew
her will ever forget the singular charm
of her presence, her kindly Hiiile and
her friendly conversation. Her death
is a grievous loss to all who had the
happiness to know her.
Draih ot aa Hlatorie Character.
ILriild special: "Best-rest." were
the last words of Joachim Hayward
Siddms, g andsou of the never-to-be-
forifotten Sarah Siddons. as ho
breathed his last at his home, No.
2tHW Thirteenth street, Sunday night.
This remarkable and interesting man
was bom at Calcutta in the tirst year
of this century, but was early taken
to Kngland. There ho passed his
boyhood. His mother was visiting in
Brussels during "the hundred days"
in 1815. She was invited to the
Duchess of Bichmond's hall, and in
the absence of his father young Sid
dons, hardly fifteen years old, accom
panied his moMier. fcven during his
ast illness tho aged man graphically
described the departure of tlie En
glish ollicers for the field on which
the battle of Waterloo was subse
quently fought. Byron immortalized
the incident, but in a note he cast
some doubt upon the reality of tho
event. Mr. Siddons, however, main
uuncti its utmost accuracy, tie wag
an actor at seventeen. Two years
later ne secured a commission in the
British army and went to India
Aften ten years' service he resitrned
to take charge of the Calcutta English
man. At various times he lived over
forty years in India, and built the San
Bouci Theater in Calcutta, which he
managed lor a considerable time
He returned to Fntrland, and came to
this country on the lirst trip of the
Great Kastern. Ho finally removed
here with his fumilv in 1 875. lie wrh
a Shakespearean scholar of recognized
ability. There was one incident of
us life that he never tired of telline,
On his way out to India after his tirst
commission, the vessel stopped at St,
Helena. Lord and Iidy Holland al
ways sent some memuto 1 1 the un
fortunate man at I-ongwood on whom
tho entire world had turned its back.
a major oi Mddonss regiment was
letailed to go ashore and deliver these
gifts. Ho took young Siddons along
as an aid. itiey totind .Bonaparte in
the garden, and he walked with them
slowly back to the house. He an-
eared greatly affected by the thought
til remembrance of his English
friends. When the British officer and
his young aid were taking their de
parture, tlie deposed Emperor turned
pathetically to Siddons and said: "I
w ish you well, young man, and I hoie
your success may bo more enduring
than mine." These words were uttered
in a tone of voice so heartbroken. Mr.
Siddons was often wont to say, that
the tears came to his young eyes de
spite all his English training regarding
Bonaparte. The death of the captive
occurred a little more than a year
after, in May, 1K21.

22, 18S0, the steam yacht Mamie, car
rying the acolytes of Most Holy Trin
ity Catholic church, collided with the
ferry steamer Garland, having an ex
cursion party on loard. Seven per
sons were drowned, and suits for dam
ages wore begun by relatives against
the two boats. During the past six
years an immense amount of litigation
has been carried on, the matter being
fought through the Canadian courts
and the State and I'nited States
court, one suit reaching the Supreme
Court. There were in all forty-eight
suits pending when a settlement was
reached. The surplus of the com
pany, after certain previous obliga
tions are paid, will be paid over to the
plaintiffs. The suits in the various
courts were discontinued this morning-

Within ten days past orders have
gone out from American steel buyers
to English steel makers for the imme
diate shipment of between 2A00 ) and
: 5,0 0 tons of special steel, which can
be made and delivered in American
markets at from $2 5 ) to $i per ton
less than the price at which the Amer
ican steel can be made. This is due
to the increased cost of labor and
material. It is apprehended that
during the next three montlia large
quantities ot English steel will be ini
ported, to the detriment of American
makers.
The general advance in the price of
material and of labor has had the ef
fect of checking a good deal of busi
ness during lite past week, and ot in'
during manufacturers, jobbers and re
tailer to postpone the placing of
great many largo contracts for all
kinds of manufactured products.
tifcoiiid this tendency extend to ex
treme limits, it would naturally
create a reaction by the checking of
enterprise and result in a diseicploy
ment of labor with a decline iu lU
price.
All of the nail-makers east f the
Allegheny mountains are quite' jubi
lant over the prospects of a heavy
demand for nails, because of tlie an
nounced determination of the Western
makers to continue the fit-ike all sum
mer.
In a general way the manufacturing
situation is as satwfachiry aa it has
been at any time this year, although
during tne past week demand has con
siderably fallen off at Boston, New
York and 1'hiladelphia, Cincinnati,
Uhicago and rt. Ixmis.
During the past two weeks the man
ufacturers of carpets, hosiery, clothing
and ginghams in this city have re
ceived advices from their agenta to
tlie ellect that a very heavy spring
and summer demand for all products
of the loom and knitting machine will
be presented. There will be a general
advance on textile goods this summer
ol Irom 10 to 20 per cent., on account
of higher priced wool and labor.
The boot and shoe manufacturers of
1'hiladelphia and New England States
complain of a backward rather than
an active demand, but stocks are very
low in jobbers' and retailers' hands.
the jobbing trade predict a very
heavy distribution in April. Largo
sales of leather havo lieen made in
Boston, New York and Philadelphia.
The demand for foreign and domestic
hides is good, and prices show no
signs of weakening.
The anthracite coa' combination
will be attempted iu about ten days.
Trices are ruinously low from the
company's standpoint, but sulliciently
high from the consumers'. Already
the production is nearly 2,000,000
ahead of the production last year,
nearly all of which is being marketed
at exceptionally low prices. The man
ufacturing and railroad interests of tho
ten New England and Middle States
are greatly concerned at the threaten
ing attitude of the twenty odd thou
sand bituminous miners, either on
strike or threatening. Should there
be a suspension, it will be a general
one, backed by the powerful organiza
tiou of the Knights of Labor, and it
may possibly extend to the four riv
ers, namely: the Monongahcla, Alle
gheny, Ohio and Kanawha.
Fortunately for the industrial and
commercial interests of the country,
manufacturers and business men are
practically out of debt. The bulk of
them have moderate bank accounts,
well-established business, and, in the
case of the manufacturers, they have
orders running from one to four
months ahead.
LITERARY NOTES.
"Thb Will Mtstebv" is the latest
' f the Knickerbocker novels, a series
(rm the pre68 of G. P. Putnam's Sons
cf Nfw York that has won increasing
f..v.r with the pnblicwith every new
itstie. It is rco! reading.
Watson Griftis tf Montreal will
publish an article in the Magazine of
Amtrican Hittnry (ot Apiil. entitled
"The Confiolidaiion of Canat'a," in
reply to Dr. Bender'a article In the
February number, ''The Disintegia
tion of Canada," which apptars to
have created a great commotion in the
Dominion.
Edward Everktt Hale has written
an account of the Bobtin "Vacation
Industrial Schools," in which hun
dreds c.f girls are, each summer,
trained in cooking, housekeeping, em
broidery, drawing, carpentry, etc. It
will appear in the next 5- Nicholat, in
connection with a stoiy by Charles
Barnard, illustrating one girl's ex
perience in the schools.
Two suggeFtive articles to appear in
the April Century are "Strikes, Lock
outs and Arbitrations," by George
May Powell, and an editorial on the
Grant memorial "Who Shall Make
the MonuineDt?" "What Kind of a
Structure?" "The Question cf 8 yle,"
etc. The issue of the new life of
Longfellow adds timeliness to a paper
by Mrs. James T. Fields on "Glimpses
of Lonjifdllow in Social Life," which
istoappfar in the same number, ac
companying a new fo trait of the
poet, engraved from an ambrotype
taken in 1818.
The April number of the Quivtr
op?ns with an illuatratsd jrosm, "The
Proud Waves Stayed," by Geo. B.
Ontram. The csual r umber tf papers
of a strictly religious tone go to make
np the number, and these are alter
nated with stories bath long and
short. The Quivtr stories are a boon
to careful parents, for they give the
young people of the family all the
amusement they want, while at the
same time their moral teaching is un
exceptionable. They are not. how
ever, sermons in secular clothiog. bat
re genuine stories with plenty of life
and adventure in them. In the serial
on "Farrous Pictures and the Lessons
They Teach," we have this month
Corregniu's famous Fees Homo, with
an engraving from that masterpiece.
The Missionary Work on the Uonto"
is described, and we have an interest
ing paper on the "History Written on
Gems," with engraved reproductions
of some of the more famous of these
ttcasares. A sketch that none can
lead without feeling its beneficent in
fluence, is that of "John Tauler cf
