Synopsis of Important Do In firs of the Llld Congress.
THEY ARE NOT GREAT IN NUMBER.
Bills and Joint Resolutions Introduced In tlio House Aggregate 0,835, end to the Henate 3,604—A Total of 400 llecome Laws.
WHAT CONGRESS HAS DONR. Washington, Aug. 1.—The future compiler of the official history of the laws of the United StateB will not need much space in which to inscribe the really important laws enacted in the first session of the Fifty-second congress, now ready to close as soon as the world's fair matter is out of the wuy. The session drawing to a close has not been remarkable for its actual accomplishments so far aa respects large legislation.
Efforts more or less vigorous have been made to pass through both houses of congress bills dealing with questions that occupy a large Bhare of public attention, but those, with a single exception. have failed of accomplishment. The sole measure of the first class in importance, not counting the appropriation bills which have become a luw, Is the Chinese exclusion bill, and political expediency had much to do with its ropid congressional progress. This bill, the Inman registry bill, the Black Hawk and Seminole Indian wars pension bill, the ciglit-hour bill, the bill to enable the president to enforce reciprocal canal arrangements with Canada, the army nurse bill, tho intermediate pension bill and the bill to Increase the pay of life savers are about tho only measures of much general interest enacted into law.
Free silver, the tariff, the anti-op-tions bill, retrenchment of appropriations and a 15,000,000 loan to the world's fair have been the live topics of the session. The first throe subjects have been killed, at least until after the eloction. while the last is still before congress.
Many Introduced.
The house passed approximately 470 bills, of which 384 were passed by the senate and sent to the president. Of the bills passed by the house 220 were public bills, including measures relating to the District of Columbia 151 private pension bills 48 bills to remove charges of desertion, and 41 private bills of a miscellaneous character.
The senate passed 091 bills, only US of which succeeded in running the gauntlet of the house and reaching the president. Two of the latter number the president vetoed, viz., the bill to send the famous McGarrahan claim to the qourt of claims for adjudication and a bill to amend the court of appeals act. Three bills the president permitted to become laws without his signature.
The total number of bills and joint resolutions introduced in the house was 0,835, and in the senate ff,004. In the house 2,10(5 reports were made on bills, and in the senate 1,097 written reports were made, no notice being paid to unwritten reports.
Tho noteworthy feature of the private bills which became laws was the largo percentage of them relating to servlc« in the Mexican war, the Indian wars and the war of 1812, tho beneficiaries being chiefly southern men.
The Behring Be a trouble with Great Britain was the ugliest complication the senate had to consider behind closed doors, and a peaceful solution of it was found In Its reference to an arbitration commission. The Chilian muddle also occupied some of the senate's attention in executive session.
DRIVEN INTO THE MUD.
T.rrlblo Death of Prof. Edward llope, the Aeronaut, at f}t. Fan). St. Paul, Minn., Aug. 1.—Prof. Edward llope, the balloonist, met instant death at Inrcr grove in a peculiar manner Sunday afternoon. After his balloon had gone up about half a mile it began to drift rapidly toward the Mississippi before a west wind. Becoming alarmed, Hope cut away his parachute and began to descend. The machine worked badly, however, and he dropped to the earth like a shot. lie fell in a slough and was driven 12 feet into the soft mud. It required nearly an hour to dig his body out.
Dlsaxtcr to a Picnic Train. Mimvacuek, Aug. l.—The train hired by the Union stock yards switchmen of Chicago, who on Saturday had a picnic here at the National park, was wrecked at 11:80 a. m. in the union depot. The train wns run in two sections, the first arriving a quarter of an hour ahead of the other. Section No. I was still standing on the track, the excursionists having left the cars, when No. 2 came rushing into the depot at such a rate of speed as to render the engineer unable to stop it, and it crashed into No. 1, telescoping the rear coach, and badly smashing two others. One pas sengor on No. 2 was killed and eight others badly hurt.
A Woman llurned to Death. Wheatland, In., Aug. 1.—The most destructive fire that has visited Wheatland for a lung time broke out shortly after midnight Sunday morning, and before the progress of tho flames oould be checked the buildings occupied by A. Lillic, .1. Sherer, II. Kohberg and II. Krocger, four of the finest business buildings in town, were in ruins. Mrs. John Snyder perished in the flumes. The losses are estimated at from 879,000 to 5100,000.

WATSON'S CHARGES.
Testimony Helitg Taken Before tho Bpe* oial House Committee. Washington, Aug. 1. The special oommittee of the houso to investigate Mr. Watson's charges that raembors were drunk during debate began taking testimony-Saturday.Mr. Watson testified that he hud seen two members reeling in tho aisles during debate on the silver bill. lie had seen a member drunk while talking on the Noyes-ltockwell election case.
In his opinion that speaker was in a maudlin state. Continuing, Mr. Watson said that in front of the speaker was a cup and sauoer. The cup's contents wore replenished several times, and it was noticeable that the more the member drank the more he wandered in his argument. Mr. Watson testified that he heard the speaker say to a page: "Bring me more of that stuff— that whisky."
Mr. Boatner said he did not notice anything of the kind. Messrs. Otis, White, Ilalverson, Butler and Clover said they had seen members intoxicated on the floor, and Mias Bessie A. Dwyer, reporter for the National Economist, testified that she noticed the speaker In tho Noyes-Rockwell debate drunk, as described by Mr. Watson.
Mr. Watson interrupted and asked to be allowed to prove that there was a barroom in the basement and members were often seen drinking there. This was ruled out.
Representative Rockwell, of New York, testified that ho was a contestee In tho Rookwell-Noycs contested election case deoided by the house some timo ago. He was present during the discussion of the case in the house. Witness had not soen any members reeling on the floor during the present session. He saw no members whom he thought were appreciably drunk. The gentleman who mode the remark: "Where was I at?" hod made a speeoh In his behalf while the election case was In progress. He (witness) was associated with him a great deal before the speech was delivered assisting him. The man had worked hard and was considerably exhausted. He was, Mr. Rockwell said, In no sense intoxicated or under the Influence of liquor. Witness saw the gentleman immediately after the speech and he was not in the least intoxicated.
Representative Oates, of Alabama, was tho next witness. During his testimony it developed that Representative Cobb, of Alabam, was the person who had made the speech In the contested election case and who was the person charged with intoxication by Representative Watson.
Some question having arisen aa to whether it was proper to allow the name to remain on the record, inasmuch as no other name had been given, Mr. Cobb remarked that whether his name was mentioned or not everybody knew who was meant. He appealed to the oommittee to let the matter proceed openly, and asked the committee to make a thorough, searching investigation, saying that ho was not afraid of the result.
Oates said that while Mr. Cobb was speaking he appeared greatly exhausted, and some one sent him something to drink. The stimulant, he observed, had some effect on Mr. Cobb, enlivening his manner. Witness deolarcd, however, that Mr. Cobb was not drunk. He had known hiin for twentyseven years and never knew him to be drunk, although he took drink sometimes. Adjourned.
SHE IS INSANE.
Bo Saya the Jury In the Alice Mitchell Case—An Insane Asylum for the Murderess.
MEMPHIS, Tenn., Aug. 1. A large crowd was in attendance at the criminal oourt Saturday, it being announced that Judge J. Dubose would deliver his charge to the jury in tho famous case of Alice Mitchell, who murdered Freda Ward.
The defendant appeared calm and collected during the reading of the charge, the time occupicd in its delivory being fifteen minutes, the question of the sanity or insanity of the prisoner at the time of the trial being the only question considered. The jury retired at 9:30 o'clock, and at 0:6(1 o'clock filed into the court room with the following verdict: "Wo, the Jury, tind the dofondan t, AllceMltchell, Insane, and bellevo It would endnngpr the Safety of the oommunlty to sot her at liberty. M. C- Qallaway, foreman."
Alice Mitchell was then remanded to the custody of the shoriff and will bo ordered placed in an insane asylum. Should she be released as sane at any time, she can be then placed upon trial, on the charge of murder, as she was only tried as to her mental soundness or unsoundness, tho question as to her mental condition at the time of the commission of the homicide not being touchcd upon.
When the verdict was read by tho clerk, a faint smile sproad over the.defendant's features, as if she had been confident of the jury's verdict throughout the entire trial. She was taken to jail, gayly chatting as she went, and will be sentenced to one of the state insane asylums.
No Progress Made.
Washington, Aug. l.—No progress was made with the world's fair matter by the houso Friday. Mr. Holman introduced a resolution to extend the appropriations carried by the sundry civil bill of lost year till August 4. but Mr. Hopkins objected to its consideration and the speaker was unable to decide whether the resolution was entitled to priority over the pending question. The house then adjourned out of rcspect to the memory of Representative Craig.

LKO ON COLUMHUS.*
Rome, Aug: 1.—Popo Leo XIII. hns issued a letter on the observances of the Columbus centennary, addressed to the bishop* of Spain, Italy and Amor* ieu, in which he says, among other things: "From the end of the fifteenth ceutury, since a muti from Ligulra first landed under the auspices of God on the trans*Atlantic shores, humanity has been strongly inclined to celebrate with Gratitude the reeolleenon of this event. It would certainly not be an easy matter to find a more worthy cause to touch their hearts and inflame their zeal. Tho event In effect is such In itself that no other epoch lias seen a grander and more beautiful one accomplished by man. As to him who accomplished it, thore are few who can bo compared to him in greatness of sou} and genius.
Owed Much to Columbus.
"By this work a new world flushed forth from the ocean, thousands upon thousands of mortals returned to the common society of the human race, led from their barbarous life to peacc-fulness aDd civilization and—which is (if much more importance recalled from perdition to eternal life by the bestowal of the gifts which Jesus Christ brought to the world. Europe* astonished alike by the novelty and the prodlgiousuess of this unoxpoctcd event, understood little by little, in due course of time, what sho owod to Oolumbuu, when by sending colonies to America, by frequent I communications, by exchango of services, by the resources confided to the sea and received in return, ihcro was discovered an accession of tho most'favorublo kind possible to the knowl* edge of nalure, to the reciprocal abundance of riches, with the result that the prestigo of Europe Increased enormously.
To Celebrate Worthily.
"Therefore it would not be fitting amid these numorous testimonials of honor and in these concerts of felicitations that the church should maintain complete silenco, since, In accordance with her character and her institution, she willingly approves and endeavors to favor all that appears, wherevor it Is, to be worthy oi honor and praise.
"In order to celebrate worthily and in a manner suitable to the truth of tho facts the solemn anniversary of Columbus, the sacredness of religion must be united to the splendor of tho civil pomp. "We decree to this effect: That tne day of October 12, or the foUowing Sunday, if the ro respective diocesan bishops judge it to be opportune, that after the ofUee of the day tho solemn mass of the most holy trluity shall be celebrated the cathedral and collegiate churches of Spain, Italy and the two Americas. In addition to these countries we hope that, upon the Initiative of the bishops, us much may be done In the others, for it is lining that all should concur in celebrating with piety and gratitude an event which has been profitable to all. "In the meanwhile, aB a pledge of the celestial favors and in testimony of our fraternal good will, we affectionately accord in the Lord the apostolic benediction to you, venerable brothers, to your clergy and to your people. "Given at Rome, near St Peters. July Ifi, of the year 18W, the llftccnth of our pontificate. "LEO XIII, Pope."

OUT OF CASH.
ABiiiNGToiV, Aug. 1. —For the first time in twenty-five years the wheels of government are at a standstill. The old sundry civil bill, under which a large number of important branches of the government service were maintained, has expired by limitation as a result of tho deadlock over the world's fair appropriation. The objection of Representative Hopkins (111.) to tho further continuance of this old appropriation brought about the standstill Saturday, but it was not until Sunday that the full effect of this action was realized. The great government printing ofiloe, which employs 3,000 people, and whore relays usually work Sundays and holidays, was silent and deserted. Public Printer Palmer's notice, posted Saturday night, that tho ofilce would bo closed until such time as congress provided funds for the worlt, gave the building entirely to the dozen or more watchmen who pn' rolled the premises. Tho printers worked until midnight Saturday night and succeeded In finishing the Congressional Record of Saturday, as it was a short one. When tbo3' left they were told that they need not report for work until sent for. The big building will again be silent tills morning, for the day force comes on at
7
It Is an open question whether the federal courts of the country can legally transact business to-day, for tho law is explicit that no branch of the government service can do work in anticipation of an appropriation. Mr. Hopkins said that lie felt sure the judges of the federal court at Chicago and elsewhere would not undertake to do any business toduy or until an appropriation was available for paying the judges, clerks and employes. Even tho veterans at the national soldiers' home are recoivlng their rations without authority of law, and the military commandants In charge may feel obligod at any time to observe the strict letter oi the law and close up these institutions. llolmeu Worried.
Mr. Uolmun and his associates do not conceal that they are greatly worried by the situation which Mr. Hopkins has forcod upon thom. While they arc openly, charging that the government blookade is due to Mr. Hopkins and the world's fair, they privately say among themselves that their main four is that it will throw permanent discredit upon the present democratic house. At the conference Sunday morning Mr. Hopkins told Messrs. Sayers and Dockery that he would not yield from his position. There are many who feel that Mr. Hopkins' position is a most politic one, and if persisted in will bring Mr. Holman and his fellow obstructionists to their knees.
UNEASINESS IN THE IRON HALL.
Members of the Order Fearful or tlio itesult of Homerby's Management. Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 1.—The application for the appointment of a receiver for the order of the Iron Hull has created an uneasiness in all parts of the union, and hundreds of dispatches have been received by the local officers asking- for particulars and demanding to know the exaot condition of the order. The gravest reports are ourrent Involving the funds which are or ought to bo in the hands of tho supreme ofllners. So far as they relate to the officers in general, the reports have been indignantly denied, but an adequate denial is wanting, Inasmuch as the reports relate more directly to Mr. Somerby, who is absent from the city and cannot, therefore, bo hoard.
