WASIIIXUTOX. Election Contests Bthe Hon. Washixotojc, April 10. The docket ia the Elections Committee Room of the House shows that there have beeo reports made on eleven contest cases during the present se sion. In this number of decisions the Democrats score two ahead, six being in favor of Democratic and four reports In favor of Ilepublican members, while one, the Vtah case, threw out both contestant ami contested A part of these reports have not yet been made to the House, but this will be the showing when they are made. Of other retorts yet to be made one more Democrat will, in all probability, be seated in the ca?e of Stroback vs. Herbert, from Al a bam a. A. favorable report will likely be made in the I.ee-Richardsxra case, from South -Carolina, thus seating a Republican. At the adjournment it nor looks as if the
Democrats will have scored three fcbea-i of the Republicans in the mttter of eonteste. Tbt celebrated Sessin&house-Frost case, from Missouri, is not yet printed, and nothing can be anticipated as to its termination. It is expected that all contest cases excepting this and the Lee-Richard9-?n will be out of the hands of the Committee by May 1. The Biuby-Fimley case, fron. Floridt, will likely be decided to-nwrrow in :Iavor of Cisby, Republican. These cases hav, most of thera-et least, 'been very extensive, and the Elections Committee has been duenpj some very Jrord work, holding from four to eight meetings every week, besides the night sessions. The Sbtpherd ScheaM. . Shipherd continues undaunted in giving his evidence in regard to the ehernes with Tero. His retort that he ttought this investigation was feeing conducted for the purpose of ascertaining the whereabouts of certain missing fnpers, and nöt to pry into private busirveM, is considered an indication that he rTA "talk back" if pushed into a corner. Tie Democrats -say the offer made by the majority of the Committee "to give the Democrat an opportunity to take charge of tne investigation is an indication that the work i to avail notking, and that there is a desire to shift the blow of the burden. Shipherd mroves to be too wily to dis close anytking of importaace to the Government. His only interest ia doing or saying anything for the Government is in his attempt to "Criminate Hurlbur, and this attempt iveets with disfavor here. Shipherd's veracity is being douSted now by members of the Committee. Th Gorrrumeot 'Printing Ofllce. Some enemies '.f the late Tublic Frm'.er, Difrees, scy that the 'Government Printing Office is not in a healthy condition; that there is much materia! going to waste; many jobs of work only partially finishe I, and left in bad shape, and that 1 there will have to be much money and work expended in finishing work and putting the otEce in shape. Mr. S. F. Rounds, the new Public Printer, is here. He has nothing to say -about the -condition -of the office. He will be confirmed ad will soon entr upon the duties of his olftce. It is said hi will overhaul everything, put the office ia good shape, diweharge a lot of men he d2i not want, ar.d pet matte's in ship-shape : before h starts off on the immense ani-cunt of work b-fore him.

The question was not pressed, jand the Committee adjvurned. Tti Motion to QaaAh the Star Hont Lullet unents Overrule Dor-ej' Arrest Or4red. Washikgto. April 10. Judge Wylie has decided the Star Route indictments are good and afficient The notion to quash is overruled and the indictments stand. Oeneral Urady and Turner, Miner, Perdell, Cabell and Doone. of the Jcfendasts, were in court Judge Wy lis naid the motions in the case of Porsf y ftuC Brady were similar the prln
cipal polhts being Vhat the defendants had not been bound over by a Commissioner to await the action of the Grand Jury, and that the Jury bad found the indictments without the cases having been properly brought before them by order of the Court. The Judge then read the Maryland law of
OiHin which these points are based. and reviewed the history of the adoption of the leg! Code of the District, and denned the force of the Maryland statutu, which arc claimed to constitute a part of the juris prudence of the District of Columbia. The decision ke finally arrived at, after an exhaustive consideration of all acts subsequent to that organizing the District Courts, and thAt;act itself was that the law of had disappeared from the District Code, ong with all "Maryland laws of the same clas, many years ago. The Judge then toot up the other points of the motions to quash the question of the jurisdiction of the Court, and the point that the conspiracy charged in the indictment had not Deen sufficiently delined, receiving consideration in that order. After reading the Statutes bearing on the jurisdiction of this Court, he decided that the Court certainly had jurisdiction int the premises. As to the claim that the conspiracy had not been established by the indictment, he said it wa9 only necessary to consider whether or not the defendants had, by their joint action, endeavored to obtain, or did obtain, money or its equivalent from tha Government, by Illegal method. The Judge gave his definition of the meaning of conspiracy and reviewed carefully those jortions of the indictment containing the alh?ations, and said, in his opinion the evidence presented therein was strong enough to warrant the prosecution of these defendants, and he therefore decided that the indictments were good and sufficient in all funiculars. He then took up what are known as the straw bond case?, which were sent to this Cour, and again decided that the indictments were sufficient in these cases also. Judge Wylie said this decision would disIKwe of the motion to quash the indictment in the Soteido murder case. The recognizance of Stephen W. Dorsey was declared forfeited and his arrest ordered. Colonel Totten formally made objection to the decision of the Court Most of the de fendants entered an appearance and Court a Jjourned. On reassembling the Clerk read the indictment acainst General P.rady. Wm. II. Turner, M. C Rerdell and John R. Minor. They were ihen called on to plead, when Colonel Totten, counsel for defendants, stated that in the case of Brady and Turner he had certain pleas of abatement to file. These pleas were to the effect that pending the time the Grand Jury were finding the indictment, certain parties other than the District Attorney and assistants had free access to the Grand Jury room, and made speeches to the Jury, and also laid bef re them pamphlets and other ex parte evidence. Co:. Totten asserted this was exercising undue ir.tluence on the Grand Jury, ami said that he put in this plea instead of pleading to the indictment. Merrick, for the Government, contended the defendants. were there sim ply to plead guilty or not guilty. and they could not enter into other question at this time. After further discussion the Court, at 0 p. m., remarked that as the defendants were un ler arraignment he could not adjourn the Court, but, taking into consideration the lateness of the hour, he would direct a recess until to-morrow. Washington, April 10. Judge Wylie's decision in the Criminal Court to-day re fusing the motion of the defendants in the Star Route cases to quah the indictments is regarded here as the lat motion the defendants can interpose against a trial in the Criminal Court Th Preileni.il Count Hill. Washington, April C The Presidential Count bill, which passed the Benate without amendment, provides the Presidential Electors of each Slate shall meet and give their votes on the secord Monday of January next following their appointment, at such places a the Legislatures of the States may direct; that each Siate, pursuant to its laws existing on the day lixed for the appointment of Elector, may determine prior to the meeting of Ji lectors and controversy con cerning the appointment of all or any of them; that such determination shall be con clusive evidence of their lawful title, and shall govern in the count by Congress; that no electoral vote or votes from any State from which but one return has been re ceived shall be rejected, except by the affirmative votes of the two Houses; that if more than one return is received from the State, the votes of those Electors appointed by the lawful tribunal of the State shall be counted, and in the event of a question as to which of two r more of such State tribunals Is lawful, the tribunal of Elector appointed by that tribunal which the two Houses, act ing separate: v, fchall decide to be the auth orized or.e shall be counted; that in case of an unde-err.mied contest between two or more sets of Electors of a State, those votes t-hall beounted which th two Houses, act ing separately, shall decide to be the lawful electoral votes. The hill cIg j provides that if the counting of votes shall not have been completed before the Cfth calendar day next after the first joint meetii g of the two Houses, no re cess shall be afterward taken by either House until the counting is finished. TOE riRK RECORD. The City Biiiltling ut itamlltoc, O., De Mroxrd. Cincikkati, April 9. A great fire is rag ing now at Hamilton, ihree hre engines have been sent'from here. A message just received by telephone says: "The fire started at 10:30 to-night in the City Buildings, on High street, near the entrance to the bridge over tne oreat liamt. it has already con sumed the City Duildiogsand general livery stables, and under a high wind has cot be yond the control of the Fire Department It is now, at 11:15, passing in the direction of the Presbyterian and Baptist Churches and County Jail and Poit -office. The grar.test consternation prevails among the citizens." At 1:30 the following particulars rere earned by ictleyhonic aieasage from Hamil ton: The fire started in the Lvery stable on Front street, ownwi by W. M.

'Ike watchman was slow in turning in an alarm and tke engii?s were not quick in getting at work. The Commercial's special says: "The Cincinnati engines arrived at 11:30, having made the run in thirty minutes. It says the fire originated from an overturning lamp in J ell ison's stable.' The insurance is small. Ten buildings and eetablishraenta were bnrned out, including two stables and one ice house." TOOL WOBKS BCBJTKD. Clivilasd, April 9 The Towell Tool Company's Works were partly destroyed tonignt Dy nre, it is presumed by an incendi ary. 1 he flames broke out in the forge, a frame building 300x50 feet. This rart of the works, which contained probably not less than 20,000 worth of e Jperaive machin-1
ery, beside a large tpnantity ot ftock, was
burned to the ground. The remainder ot the works, including the office, was saved. At 9 o'clock the watchman went through the force and found everything as usual. Twenty niinntes later he suddenly saw a name which seemed to break out all over the interior at once. As tne structure was not very rasily fired and contained but little inflammmable matter, it i'j believed petroleum had been freely scattered about by the incendiaries. and suspicion points to the workmen who were dismissed some time ngo and have since been very troublesotae. going so far as to assault the men employed in their places, rendering necessary police escort between the works and their homes. Yesterday one of the men was bound o?r to the Common Pteas Court for an assault on one of the workmen. The loss by the fire can not be ascertained until an examination shows how much machinery and stock are damaged. The loss on the building is not very ereat, a it was an inexpensive structure. Insura :ce not yet learned. I5CE5 DIARY FIRES. Clxvelasp, O., April 9. A Leader special reports three incendiary fires hut night in Youngstown. One was Wm. Pollock's stable, another in Fowler.Stamburgh fc Co.'s warehouse, where 100 barrels ol oil were stored, and the other in John Rover's frame building in the same locality. The losses aggregate several thousand dollar. The people of Youngstown are much alarmed, because one week ago three other fires were set, and they fear a plot to burn the city. AT RKDWIXO, Sr. Tacl, Minn., April 9. A special from Redwing to the Pioneer-Press savs: "Half of the block bounded by May, Bush, Third and Broadway streets is on fire. The fire originated at 8 o'clock p. m. in the livery, stable occupied by Webster & Perkins on Third street The cause of the fire is unknown. A brisk wind was blowing westward and the Opera House caught fire, as did the house of Mr. Coyle's and Dr. Allen's resl dence. It then spread northerly and caught in the wooden buildings on Main street, occupied as a second-hand store and omnibus stables and city express, I his was all done in the course of twenty or twenty-five minutes. Com para lively nothing could be saved of the articles iu these buildingä, except the livery horses and some carriages. The Cre is still spreading toward other buildings. Bragg's meat market and store adjoining, together with Coggle's block, in the third story of which is the Odd Fellows Hall, on the cor ner of Moin and Broadway, is in neat danger. The stores east of Webster t Peakins' livery are also going. The fire company is doing valuable work in keeping the hre irom the Centen nial Block, containing the Goodhue Com pany Bank and other offices. TUR ELECTION?. Throughout the State.

J tlESTi.EMKN You can count me as a convert to Thomas' Klectrlc Oil. When your agent came into my ofllce to adverti? e you me iciue, I classed it with the thousand and one nostrums hanked about the country and sold as cure-alls. For fifteen or twenty years I have beeu suffering with that terrtble disease. Catarrh; had lost my sense of smell aud taste; also my sight and hearing were fawt fating. I had previously tried scores of adver. ised remedies, but found only temporary relief. Last fall I concluded to give your Klei liic Oil a trial. Alter using rrt of the Ürst h t;le I begun to feel better. So I kept on using it every night before retiring. I am now most happy t say I am nearly cured, and feel better than I have 'or ten years. Some time ago 1 felt a pricking sensAtiou under one of my tbumb-uaila. I could not imacine what caused it. It felt as if a piece of needle was under the nail. I tied up my finger with a rag, freely saturating It with the Oil; the pAin ceased, and in a few days a black spot made its appearance and gradually increased uutil a new nail grew on. Thej-e are facts voluntarily given, even azamst a former prejudice concerning patent mediciue. You can use this tes timony as you see fit. If it will do ay good in getting suffering humanity to try your medicine, and it relieves others as it has me, they will feel thankful. You:s truly, O.
