Mia* Lawler. to meet her frienda. So many of
her en eats at Mr*. Tracer's recent evening re
ception were paring their party calls that the

Mrs. Wanamakcr'* picture gallery yesterday
afternoon held an audience of ladie who. Judg
ing from their faces, never allowed their atten

rists on the lighter things of life hare been
listened to in this snme room, and none of

Her uniform of dark blue flannel is neat and
trim to commencc with. Her poke bonnet, tied
under her chin with a big coquettish ribbon
bow, frnmcs a face which when animated be
comes beautiful. Her hair curls gracefully
around her face, filling in the curre of the bon
net. and is black, accenting the whitenca* of
her complexion. She wore no ornaments, and
no Jewelry but a thick gold wedding ring. Her
surroundings made the contrast which brought
out tho better the simple points in her own ap
pearance. She stood between two tall, graceful
dims. The tapestries und window draperies
ack of her made a rich background, and w here
her hands rested on the balustrade in front of
her hung a magnificently embroidered soarf.

THE DIPLOMATIC BILL.
Concurrence la All tbe Senate Amendments
Except the Hawaiian Cable Re<-oramended.
The House committee on foreign affairs to
day recommended that the House concur in
fourteen of the fifteen amendments made by
the Senate to tLe consular and diplomatic
appropriation bill and that it non-concur
in the remaining one?that relating to
the Hawaiian cable project. The House
committee lias already reported a separate bill
for the charter of this company, with a
government guarantee which was prepared
with grca enrot and cantion, nnd which the
committee regards as a more practical propo
sition than ihat attached by the Senate to the
appropriation bill. The action of the commit
tee. therefore, does not necessarily signify hos
tility to the proposition, but a desire to bring
the 'matter into conference, where tbe best re
sults may be obtained.
JUDGE DOAKMAK'S CASK.
The Impeachment Resolution to B? Called
t'p in the Hosm Tomorrow.
The House judiciary committee today again
considered the subject matter of the resolu
tion already reported to the House to impeach
Judge Eonrman of the western district of
Louisiana for high crimes and misdemeanors,
and Representative Thompson will call it up in
the House tomorrow at 2 o'clock if he
can obtain tho floor. Judge Boarroan has ma>!e
application to the committee to make a state
ment in relation to the matter, but the com
mittee declined to consider it, on the ground
that a compliance with the request would in
volve a practical reopening of the case.
In the committee today Representative Bor
ers entered a motion to reconsider the vote by
which the committee on Tuesday adopted the
resolution authorizing it to ascertain and re
port to the House whether any states have in
their constitutions or legislative "nactmentspro
visions whieh should require a reduction of
their representation in Congress under the
fourteenth amendment to tho Constitution.
Pending action the committee adjourned.
THE POLICE COCRT BILL.
It Passes the Senate With Amendments and
Goes to Conference.
Mr. Wilson (Iowa) this morning in the Sen
ate reported from the committee on judiciary
the House bill relating to the jurisdiction of
the Police Court in the District and asked
unanimous consent for present consideration.
The bill has been frequently printed in Tux
Stab and provides under certain circumstances
for tsial by jury in the Police Court, for
another judge and other provisions. Several
amendments were proposed by the committee,
which were agreed to and the bill was then
passed, and conference with the House on the
amendments asked for.
Mr. Gorman Not s Candidate.
Representative llusk has made a statement as
to Senator Oorman's candidacy for the demo
cratic presidential nomination. That he was
going to do so was announced in The Stah yes
terday. The statement is brief and declares
that there is no truth in the story that the Mary
land delegation to the convention of 1892 would
present Senntor Gorman's name. Prophecy as
to what may be done in 18% or in 1900 is not
indulged in. _

Col. Sam Strong's WHL
In the Circuit Court, Judge Cox, this after
noon the case of the contested will of the late
Samuel Strong was taken up for trial on the
issues as to the testamentary capacity of the
deceased at the time of its execution. The
will was made April 17 of last year, a few
days before the death of Col. Strong, and by
it he left his estate to his two children and ap
pointed his brother Robert and CoL W. A.
Cook guardians, naming them with G.C. Penni
field as executors. Robert and Jacob Strong,
brothers, and Jane Strong Webb, sister, filed a
caveat to the will and Gen. B. F. Butler and Mr.
O. L. Barrett appear for them. Messrs. C. C.
Cole and II. E. Davis appear for the pro pound
ers of the will.
It is stated that the estate, real and personal,
amounts to $60,000. CoL Strong will be re
membered as an extensive contractor for some
years both on government and corporation
work and as a party to much litigation grow
ing out of his contracts. The ease will likely
consume several days.

The District of Columbia appropriation bill
i> now in conference, the Home oonfereee'
being Xtim. McComas, Clements and Mor
row, and the Senate Messrs. Plumb, Dawes and
Cockrell. The conference committee will
probably complete its work bj the end of
this week and the tret of next week
will see the bill on it* final
pa-wage. The House intends to take a separate
rote ou four of the Senate amendments. pro
Tiuing they are insisted upon by the Senate
confereee in their preennt form. Thoee are the
proviaione in regard to assessment, electric
li^bta, payment of bonds falling due and re
funding of District payments for the Zoological
Park and water works. Several member* of
the nproprintion committee in the Howe are
of the opinion that it is an unwise plan for the
United States to take up these District bonds
falling due in the manner provided for in the
Senate amendment, but consider a new issue
of bonds should be made. Other*, howet er,
ray that on the grounds of economy and quick
ness the plan proposed by the Senate is much
superior to any otiter. The government, they
claim, has tho entire matter in charge and is
assured of lepayinent for the money advanced
by the natural w< rling of the sinking fund.
Strange as it may seem there will be opposi
tion in the House to the Senate amendment cred
iting back to the District one-half of the %i75,
000 which the new water works oost and pro
Tiding for the payment of this sum from the
water rates in twenty-tire annual installments,
and the provision refunding to the District the
amount paid out for the maintenance of the
Zoological Park. Mr. Cannoc is expected to
loud a raid against these provisions in the
House.

Applications for Liquor l icense* lacking
Names Will Not Count.
The following order relative to liqnor licence*
: was today passed by the Commissioners: That
whenever an application for a bar room license
it not accompan.ed hr the necessary signers
the assessor shall at once notify the applicant
in writing of that fact, and if the requirement
j is not complied with in a reasonable time, not
1 exceeding ten day* from date of notification,
I the assessor shall notify tbe applicant
I that hi* replication is disapproved by order of
I the Commissioner* and thi.t be must withdraw
, his license deposit at once. Ihe assessor will
I also notify the major of police of tbe action
: taken in each case.
This order will affect many cases. Hereto
fore when an applicant has'not been able to
obtain the requisite Signature* to his applica
tion he liaa nled it nevertheleaa, and kept bis
Jilace open until his application ha* been re
eded twice. His lawyer ha* been heard,
and a multitude of things thrown in the Com

according to law he should have been closed
the moment it was discovered that he lacked

"1 AM AN IMIKTIUT."

I Vavarow, R.I>., Feb. 18. Senstor-elect Kyle
j define* hi* position and political tendencie* in
i tbe following remark* mi.de tonight before a
I meeting of the independent* and democrat* at
] Pierre:
"When two force* acting in opposite direc
tion* meet they produce * new lorce, wbi. h
continue* to move in a direction ddTcrent froai
either of the other forces, 'ibi* new force i?
called in mechanics a reaulL.ut. Tonight I
feel that I ara a resultant?formerly a republi
can. then an independent and now chat 1 have
been elected by both parties I am a resultant
of both parties. 1 am an indeorat. I have
always been in favor of a new tang and
about four veara ago. when tbe republican
party decided in favor of a high tariff, it
was too much for me and I sought a Bora
congenial party, which I foun.P in the
democratic party. After the independent
party wa* formed last year 1 found tbat ita
principle* wen still more congenial. Tbe in
dependent cannot dbliate with tbe republi
cans. The republicans' ring rule and high
tariff kave made affiliation iuipusnible."
The democrat* claim tbat Senator Kyle map
be counted with them on tiartv m*uea.and it la
belicTed that he ha* pledged himself to this
effect. He acknowledger that he owe* hi*
election to the democrats, who voted fur him
on receiving assurance* from Illinois that
the alliance would support Palmer or aaaaa
otber democrat. All the party leader* admit
thr.t in the fnture South Dakota will be
classed among the doubtful states. The election
of Kyle will strengthen the democratic aa4
the republican party in the stale.
