Secretary Whitney's Invitation. ? Secretary
Whitney yesterday sent to each Member of Con
gress an invitation to be present at the launching ot
the gunboat Yorktown and the dynamite cruiser at
Cramps shipyard, Phil delphla. one week from
to-mo. row. A special train will be provided. The
Secretary Is desirous that all members Interested
in t he bu.ldlog of the new navy should avail them
selves of this opportunity to inspect the progress
of the construction ot other ships at this yard.
Names of Persons Offering Bonds Not to bb
Made Pcblic.?Secretary Falrchlld has announced
that he will treat offers tor the sale of bonds next
week under the terms of the circular ot the 17th
Instant tne same as last year, except that the
names of those offering bonds will be suppressed.
This will be done, he says, because many bond
ho ders do not care to have tbe fact ot their will
ingness to part with their bonds made known to
tbe public. He says it Is easy to see how such lh
formailon may be used against a business man,
and he has, therefore, decided to treat the names
In each c*-e as confidential. The public will be
furnished through the newspapers with a com
plete list of all offers received, including full de
tails as ro the amount and rate In each case. A
committee will be appointed to assist the Secretary
In considering the offers and the amount to be
realized by the acceptance.
Thb Case or Lieut. Taunt.?It Is generally
believed tbat Lieut. Emory Taunt, whose case has
been pending before Secretary Whitney for a long
time, will be allowed to resign. The sentence of
the court-martial by which he was tried was that
he be dismissed tor disobedience to orders. Two
medical boards have since examined him and both
have reported adversely to him. The Secretary, it
Is thought, is willing that the previous good re
cord of this officer should be considered In mitiga
tion of his offense, but will not interfere with the
sentence any further than to permit a resignation.
Tula is a concession and seems to be the best solu
tion ot a knotty question. Great pressure has
been brought to bear from all quartern tor the
leulency ot the Secretary, but be Is unwilling to
go any further.

THE HOUSE ONLY IN 8E88I0N.
Indian Appropriation Bill Passed.
THE PENSION BILL THEN TAKEN UP.
Both Distriot Committees Hold Meetings.
Houm of Hr preventative*.
On mouon of Mr. McHae (Art), a senate oill
was passed authorizing me Kansas City, Texar
kana and GuU Kallroad Co. to construct bridges
over the Red and Little rivers In Arkansas.
On mouon of Mr. Anderson (111.), Senate bill
was passed extending the system of beacon lights
to the Illinois River.
on motion of Mr. Townshcnd (111.), Senate
amendments were concurred in to tlie Military
Academy bill.
TU? INDIAN APPROPRIATION BILL PASSED.
The House then resumed the consideration of
the Indian appropriation bill, the pending ques
tion being on tue motion of Mr. Randall, of Penn
sylvania, to strike out the ctioctaw judgment sec
tion. The motion was lost and the bill was
passed.
Mr. Townshend (111.), from the committee on
military affairs, reported his bill, placing Gen. W.
.F. (Baldy) smith on the retired list with the rank
of m.ijor.r^neral. Private cciendar.
A motion to proceed to the consideration of
frlvato business was defeated by the managers of
lie various appropriation bills, and, on motion of
Mr. Blanchard, or Louisiana (chairman 01 the
commits e on rivers and harbors), the House went
into committee oi the whole on such measures.
TBI PENSION APPROPRIATION BILL.
The first bill on the calendar was the pension
appropriation bill, and Mr. Blanchard showed a
disposition to object, to its consideration In the in
terest of the river and harbor bill, but In view of
the statement by Mr. Foran (ohio) that it could be
disposed or in an hour, he withdrew all objection,
and the pension bill was taken up.
BOND PURCHASES, PENSION ARREARS, AND TXR
SURPLUS,
Mr. Henderson (Iowa) In speaking to the bill
alluded to the recent action of the House In regard
to the purchase of bonds with the surplus, In order
to dispel the doubt in the mind of the President
aa to nis autnontv to purchase bonds, such au
thority having been conferred in an appropriation
MIL In examining the arrears of pension act It
would be tound that there w .s no limitation as to
the time wheu claims should be fl.ed. The only
limitation ever placed upon that act was found la
an appropi lation bilL He fe.t it to be his duty to
call tne attention of the Administration to this
fact, for If the Piesident had trouble in buying
bonds with the surplus he should have equal dif
ficulty in not allowing arrears of pensions.
If the Administration could nut, without an
expression oi opinion from the House, go into th?
market and buy bonds, he bad no right, if ne was
logical and consistent, to withhold arrearages or
pensions. He appealed to the Administration to
ue consistent, and come up like a lime man and
allow arrears oi pensions to the boys wuo flied
tnelr claims wituin the provisions oi tue act. That
snould be done until a declaratory act was passed
saying that he Laust be governed by the provision
ot the appropriation bill.
Capitol Topic*.
THE BILL FOR ADMIH8ION OP 80rrH DAKOTA AS A
STATE PASSES THE SENaTK.
After a lively political debate the Senate yester
day evening passed the bill to admit Dakota mto
tneCnion by a strict paity vote. The discussion
or the day was chiefly with regard to the electoral
controversy oi isTtt. 'ine su?stl;ute offeied by
Mr. Butler providing an enab.ing act lor tue admis
sion or th wuoie territory ot Dakota was voted
down by 28 to 23?a party vote?and tnen t he
committee's bill was passed by tue same vote. Tue

Southern naif as South Dakota, the Northern half
to retain the nauie of North Dakota and remain

REVISION OF THE PATENT LAWS.
The House committee on the revision of the
patent laws has, as stated In yesterday's Stab,
completed an important work on which It has
been engaged for some time. This Is a radical
cnange in tue patent laws as tuey at present
Stan i. It has Deen the habit or ricn corporations
wi.en ttiey become the possessors oi a valuable
Invention to tile a caveat and then employ shrewd
lawyers to delay as long as possible the granting
or tne patent. Senator cockrcii's report on tue
Investigation ot tne department shows that In
some cases monopolies have by trivial motions de
layed tne nual issue oi patents lor eight and ten
years. In the meantime, however, tne Company
has enjoyed tne lull use ot Its invention, and wnen
t .e. patent is granted the legal i-.-rm oi seventeen
years Is lengtnened by Just as many ye rs as tne
deiay has existed. The revision will prevent the
recurrence oi this In the iuiure, as it is proposed
to have ail patents either granted or disallowed in
two years. xhe com'ult tee will also recommend
that the term ot an American patent be allowed to
run out lta entire leugtu, wi.hout regard to the ex
piruiiuu oi a loreign p tent uooo the same lbven
lion. At present the American patent expires
wnen tne torelgn patient dies. The committee
will probably consider in the iuiure the necessity
or a law preventing corpoiaUons irom obtaining
control or inventions wnicn would ben fit the
pub.lc and locking them up wneie they do tne
public no good.
NOTES.
It is expected by both democrats and republicans I
that me hsuenes treaty will be taken up in |
secret session or the S.n.^e next week, and that it |
wul be considered irom day to day until a final
voie shall be reached.
FEUDIWANO KING'S TRIAL.
Point* Raised by the Defrnse? The 1
Officer* of th* Vm Washington
Building A**oclatlon.
Yesterday, In the criminal Court, the trial of
Ferdinand King, formerly secretary of the Elev
enth Building Association of Went Washington,
on the charge of forgery, was continued after Tbb
Star's report closed. Jno. Leetch and DaD.Donovan :
testified to tne course of business usual with
building associations, and this closed the Govern
ment's case.
Mr. Miller moved that the Government be re
quired to elect under which ot the five counts
they claim a conviction, but the motion was
overru ed.
Mr. Miller moved to take the case from the Jury
as to several of the counts on the ground *,hat
where one executes and Issues an instrument
purporting on its face to be executed Dy him as a
principal therein named, he is not guilty or for
gery, even though he had no such authority from
the principal. He also claimed that the evidence
as to Mr. Clabaugh's custom ot signing checks |
was Inadmissible, and should be stricken out, 1
and even If King d d what he is charged with he
Is not guilty of forgery, but of false pretenses;
and as the statute of limitations has run sgalnst
this offense, he could not be indicted for it.
Tn. se points were argued to the hour ot ad-1
journment. 1
TESTIMONY T0-DAT.
The trial was resumed this morning, and Miss I
Lowry was recalled at her own request to explain '
her testimony.
Tbe court, after excusing the Jury, rendered Its
Slnlon on the points made by counsel, holding
at the defendant cou d not be held on those
counts of the indictment based on the endorse
ment of the check, for it was not proved to be a
forgery. At moat the defenflant could be con
victed on but two of the counts?rorglng the
paper and uttering the same The motion to '?>?
tue case was tberelore overruled.
The defense moved to strike out the testimony as
to the custom of Mr. Clabaugh ?tgning in blank,
but Was overruled. -
boa thb ds
Mr. Miller, for the defendant, said that so little I
ha* been proved he scarcely knew how to state
his defense, and would offer but little testimony.
Llewellyn Washington, teller of Lewis Johnson
* Ok, testified to the payment of checks of Janu
ary 5th and March 7th at his bank.
John H. smoot, Geo. Hill, J. Henry Wilson, John
Marbury, Jr., and Wm, Laird, Jr., teetifled ?s to
the good reputation of Mr. King; which was ad
mitted by the Government.
Mr. ooyle opened the argument for the Govera
?and was followed by Mr. Miller for the de

MM
WAITING FOR A TBBDICT.
The Jury mired with the ease at l :<o o'clock,
the court charging that if they found that for
purpose* of hia own Mr. King filled out the check
after it had been signed by Mr. Clabaugh a verdict
of guilty should be rendered.
Mr. Costkling I.eft Little Property.

TBI EXTENSION OF STRUTS.
The project involves the extension of all the
streets of Washington between Pennsylvania ave
nue and H Street across Hock Creek Into West
Washington, o, P and q streets will cross the
valiey from which the creek has been, by means of
the embankments described above, and the streets
"to ?l"*t wnere the tunnel ends, will cruse
the creek by fillings made over the arch. The land
under which the tunnel runs will become public

streets and Pennsylvania avenue, which cross the
PI?'! 00 bridges. Major Raymond said tne Dis
trict government would gain nothing directly by
the proposed improvement, except in the addition
property to the city, taxable at
TSt TUKMBL AWD TH1 ARCH.
Captain Symonds, who has made the plans and
estimates for the tunnel and arch, said to a Star
reporter to-day that he did not believe the cost
would exceed the teao.ooo asked for. The most
uncertain element It? the calculation is the proba
ble cost of the arch over the creek below O street.
It is not known where pockeis or treacherous
places may be round that win affect tke cost of
the foundation or the arch. The tunneirrom Ly
on's mill too street will be a double tunnel or
in fact, two tunnels 30 feet apart. The tunnei is
xnade double, was to provide the capacity neces
sary horizontally, instead of vertically. Each
tunnel will have a width at the bottom 01 20 feet
and a height of 12 fe-. t. They are placed ;iu feet
apart, so that in the construction the o.asiln*
done in one will not d mage the other. The arch.
While apparnily a single arch above, win have
two tunnels under It. 'These win be 30 feet wide

will be assessed at a dollar or more. The exten

would be ot great advantage to W ashington, removl
