So all her flnery came off, and she was "madder than a wet hen." Berlin, April 25.—Queen Victoria arrived at Charlottenburg at i) o'clock yesterday morning. The empress, the crown prince and crown princess and the prince and princess of Saxe-Meiningen received her at tho depot Prince Henry and his sisters, the Princesses Victoria, Sophie and Margaret, Sir Edward Malet, the British ambassador at Berlin; the Duke of Rutland and the burgomaster and municipal council of Berlin were also prosent. The greetings between Queen Victoria and the royal family of Germany were warm. The monidgnor declares that in separating from the Church of Rome, as did Saints Cyprian and Augustine, ho does not sever himself from the Catholic church. He believes that the Episcopal church in America represents the Catholic doctrine as laid down by the council of Nice, from which the Church of Rome has departed. OUR SPECIALS THIS WEEK IN GEN- TLEMEN'S FURNISHING GOOKS. The house then went into committee of the whole on the tariff bill. Mr. McMillen, of Texas, was accorded the floor, and advocated the measure. the $140,000,- 000 of surplus in the treasury he said: HATS. A few dozen Fedora Hats at $1 each. Tho occasion of the Bearch was a vague threat that the big prisoner was said to have made that the examination would never gc on.

Better and good value at from $ 1.50 up to $3.00. "We are drawing money from commerce and lccking it up in the treasury at such a rats that it is only a question of time when stringency will set in, panics begin, and ruin follow. We are robbing not only commerce of its life blood, but the people of the means of paying their taxes to their governments— municipal, county, state and federal, and their debts to their creditors. All sorts of Jobs are proposed to congress, and all sorts of jobbers are flocking here. There is nothing conceivable more currpting to government than a plethoric treasury. It revives state demands, it encourages the prosecution of matters long since set at rest." Quoting from what he termed the able and characteristic speech of the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Kelley) demanding a tot,11 repeal of the internal revenue system, he declared that the Republican party was responsible for that system, and commented on the fact that when Mr. Kelley was chairman of the ways and means committee he did not repeal internal revenue taxation. The plain, simple question presented to-day in tlil« tariff matter was, he said, whether to take off the burden of $24,455,000 of internal revenue taxes, and $53,720,000 of tariff taxes as proposed by the Mills bill or leave it on; free commerce by leaving it unshack'ed, or keep it hampered; continue to board up a oorrupting surplus, or leave the money in the pockets of the people, where it justly belonged.Tariff taxation, he insisted, costs Tiot only what is paid to the custom houses, but the incidental increase of expense upon all or a greater part of the dutiable goods made and eoiMUmed in the United Statea Before we attempted to esclude everything from our markets and forced the people to buy in the dearest markets, we had commerce carried on in American ships with all the nations of the earth, but we had absolutely driven our carrying trade from our own people, pi e tending to protect We had done nothing but destroy; protending to assist, we had only crushed our own seafaring industry; pretending to be a friend of the American merchant marine, we had been its worst and heartiest enemy, and to-day we carried but 18 per cent, of our foreign commerce, anil paid millions to other governments to do our work for us. Presently a young woman's face appeared at a third story window. Without waiting for a ladder to be raised, she leaped from the window, falling heavily upon the iron railing of the balcony below, and thence upon the sidewalk, where she was caught by a couple of firemen. The woinun was Catherine Mahoney, aged 20 veal's, who had a room on the fourth floor, and had worked her way down to the third, where further progress was cut off. She was probably fatally injured internally, besides 4ipviug one of her legs broken. The crown prinoe conducted the queen to an open carriage, drawn by four horses, which she entered, and with the empress beside her she was then drivon to the castle. Crowds of people lined the route and cheered enthusiastically as the carriage passed. One case of Young Men's Fur Hats, in all the latest shades, very stylish, for $1. The latest blocks in "gentlemen's Stiff Fur Hats in black, chocolate and cinnamon.On the witness stand the aged but robust Lawyer Marsh seemed to dilate with the idea that he was standing against great opposition for his principles. Ho told Lawyer Howe that he had been introduced to Mrs. Diss Debar as a medium about four years ago. She had never, in so many words, said that she was the daughter of Lola Montez, but he had derived that impression from hor, and had been induced to believe that she was. In answeAo a sim lar question, if she had said her father was King Ludwig of Bavaria, he answered: "Not in those words, and yet the impression she conveyed to me was undoubtedly to that effect." He supposed she was married to Diss Debar, or he would not have had them in his house. The queen ]Daid a visit to the emperor shortly after her arrival at the castle. The emperor rose to receive the queen, and cordially welcomed her. He afterward withdrew to his own apartments. The doctors feared that the meeting would excite the emperor and probably upset him, but their fears were groundless. The emperor seemed rather brighter after the interview, and his temperature was normal. The queen expressed surprise that the emperor was so little changed, especially in view of the accounts that have reached her lately. Nine Hundred on One Train. A NEW JERSEY MURDER. Boston, April 2-rD.—A train of twentythree cars, carrying 900 passenger* trom the steamer Catalonia, left for Chicago last night over the Boston and Albany railroad. This is the largest through consignment of human freight ever made by way of Boston. Each oar is inscribed: Cunard line, Liverpool via Boston to Chicago." A1 Conn's Head Nearly Shot Off by an Enemy. James Walker, aged 46, also jumped from a rear window on the second floor, and was picked up in the yard with his face and limbs badly burned and his body bruised. All of the victims were removed to Bellevue hospital, where it was thought the two first named could not survive. Freehold, N. J., April 25.—Alexander Hopper, a mulatto, after quarreling on the street in Freehold with A1 Conn, alias Burt Hopkins, an old time enemy, went away and got a shotgun from a friend. Then, seeking out Conn, who had gone to the house of a friend named Dunderwood, he called him out, and as soon as be appeared blazed away at him. The charge of shot tore away nearly the entire front of Conn's head. Ihe victim cannot live. Dr. D. M. Forinan is in attendance, but he can do nothing for him. Life is a question of hours. CALICO AND PERCALE SHIRTS. A limited numberof men's laundried colored shirts, some with two collars, for 35 cents. New Bedford, Mass., April 2&.—The trial of Herbert 1. Howe for the murder of his infant son was resumed. The jurymen visited For Killing Hli Child. The queen and the empress drove at 4 o'clock in an open carriage to visit Empress Augusta. The Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Baden were waiting to receive them. All the members of Empress Augusta's court were present The royal guests remained thirty-five minutes.

There they remained a quarter of an hour, starting at 5:80 o'clock on their return to Charlottenburg. They were accompanied by Princess Beatrice, Prince Henry of Battenberg and one of the emperor's daughters, who has been visiting the Badons. The streets were crowded, and the queen and empress were greeted with enthusiasm.After the fifemen had succeeded in extinguishing the flames, which did not extend beyond tho two lront rooms on the second and third floors, they found the body of a woman lying face downward, near the door of the hall on the third floor. She had been badly burned about tho face and arms, but hor death was undoubtedly' caused by the smoke. It was generally thought that she was Mrs. Cook, wife of the painter, who was missing, but the dead woman was a brunette, and her neighbors say Mrs. Cook was a blonde. row Island, the sand waste in Acushnet river where the body of the child was found.

ELECTRICITY TO KEEP US WARM, UNDER WARE AND HOSIERY. Five Important Patents for Heating; Houses, Railroad Cars, Ktc. New York Forger Arretted in Montreal. There never has been a season when we gave so much attention to this department. We will but quote that we have bought three cases of one quality and color undershirts, which we offer as a special leader, for only 25 cents each. Washington, April 25.—Five important patents have beon issued to Elia E. Hies, a Baltimore electrician, for methods and apparatus for heating by electricity. These inventions are based upon and embody a radically new departure in the art of converting electricity into heat, by means of which the various losses attending previous attempts in this direction are entirely overcome. It is claimed that by this system dwellings and other places can be supplied with heat from central generating stations by the same conductors that now supply them with current for incandescent electric light, and at a cost considerably leas than that for which an equal amount of heat can be produced by the crude and wasteful methods now in vogue. Mr. Marsh's portrait, the Christmas present that Adelaide Neilsun had promised him from Rembrandt, was then shown. It portrays the venerable lawyer in a Roman toga, holding a scroll. There is just a suggestion of e, likeness, but the drawing Is wretched. Louisville, April 25.—The report of tha commissioners appointed to investigate the state treasury was transmitted to the legislature by Governor Buckner. It shows the shortage of Dick Tate, the late treasurer, who is now a fugitive, to be $225,000.21. This is, however, subject to credits from unaudited claims, which will reduce it to about (196,000. The private assets of the defaulter will further reduce it to about (150,000. The commissioners discovered that the shortage reaches back at far as 1876 and that it grew steadily from the beginning. Balances were made by juggling accounts, and in one instance there is strong evidence of a forgery. The I O Ui about which there. has been much talk aggregate $53,000. They are principally against employes who were permitted by the treasurer to anticipate their claims. Treasurer Dick Tate's Shortage. By invitation of the empress Jthere was a large gathering of members of the imperial family at the )Dalace at 8 o'clock to meet the queen. Montreal, April 25.—Detective Kellart arrested James Taylor, the manager at O. H. Read's mercantile agency on Broadway, New York, who left that city rather abruptly. On examination of his books k was found that his forgeries amount to S3,000. Queen Victoria made three visits to the sick room of the emperor, who, by the doctor's advice, kept his bed, which he will do for a day or two more, till he gets s tronger. "We got the picture of Raphael by Rembrandt about ten months ago," said Mr. Marsh, "and it was promised by an independent message that Raphael would rot urn the compliment and paint Rembrandt." Prairie Fires In Dakota. The meeting between Queen Victoria and the empress was very touching. The queen burst into tears on the approach of her daughter. They embraced and kissed each other repeatedly, with bauds firmly clasped. Minneapolis, April 25.—An Aberdeen, D. T., special to The Journal says: Prairie fires are raging in this vicinity and throughout the county. The wind is blowing a gale, and it is fearad that great damage will be done to property. Mr. Howe—Who told you of this promise? Was it a communication from Raphael himself?The queen will leave to-day unless the emperor should have a relapse. Her Scotch gillies and two ruuives of India attend her. They are objects or' great curiosity to the people of Berlin. Mr. Burrows, of Michigan, followed in opposition to the MIL The possible $75,000,000 surplus at the end of the next fiscal year must be averted. An ever accumulating surplus not only Invited profligacy, but Insured swift financial disaster. The solution of the problem of how the surplus should be reduced would be attended with little difficulty if no other result was to be obtained than the reduction, but the reduction of the revenue was not the only, or, indeed, the chief end to be attained. The method by which that reduction was to be accomplished had become the main point of the controversy—the only point about which there was any serious conflict of opinion. The Witness—It would rejoice me very much to have you so regard it. Result of the Hewitt FIhr Episode. gentlemen's neckweab. Then he explained, as usual, that it came through Mrs. Diss Debar, and continued: New York, April 25.—The aldermen hav« passed, by a vote of 20 to 3, over Mayor Hewitt's veto, the ordinance taking away from the mayor and vesting in the aldermen the authority to display flags on the city hull The success of this system of electritf heating is due chiefly to Mr. Reis' method of utilizing the current expansively, so to speak, the heat being produced by secondary or "transferment" currents, having an extremely low electrical pressure, but possessing unusually great heating qualities. The system is said to be absolutely safe, and the patents referred to not only include inventions for private heating, and heating from central stations, but also special methods for heating and lighting railroad cars by electricity. "I kept a place on my wall open for it by the side of .Raphael. After months had passed I desired, through the medium, to have the picture produced. Rembrandt said he would sit for it to Raphael if I would do him the honor of sitting to him; and that is how my portrait came to be painted. It is the only one of a living person." When the picture of Rembrandt was produced the witness again said: "Don't turn it toward me, I can identify it without There is an interested audience that wants to see these pictures, and as our friends the reporters have culled them daubs I want them to be seen." The North Qerraan Gazette, referring to the visit of the queen of England, says: "Hei majesty will be welcomed by the whole population of Germany, and above all by the inhabitants of Berlin, with the veneration and sympathy so justly due one who has for many years ruled a friendly state and who is the mother of our empress, AU German heart* will thankfully accept as a token of the queen's deep sympathy for the fate of our reigning house the fact that she comes to the sick bed of our Iwloved emperor and personally shares the deep affliction and great anxiety with which we are tilled to-day. May •the be enabled to bring comfort and hope, and when she departs from Germany to take with her the assurance that the sympathy she has displayed will always be kept in grateful remembrance here."

Boston, April 25.—John Teemer, champion oarsman of America, has arrived here from Pensacola, Fia. He was met at the station by a, goodly number of his friends, who gave him a warm greeting. New York, April 25.—Augustus Butcher, a government stevedore, who lived at the Annex hotel in Brooklyn, committed suicide in a very deliberate manner. He was overseoing his men, who were unloading a steamer at the foot of West street, when he suddenly picked up an iron manhole cover that was lying on the deck and jumped into the river with the heavy weight in hit arms. He did not rise to the surface, and though grappling for his body was at onoe begun it was not recovered until life was extinct. Fire In Peabody, Mass. Patents 'covering other important applications, such as for various domestic and industrial operations, are still pending before the patent office. The uses to which a practical and economical system of electric heating, such as this appears to be, are applicable, are so many, and the field so vast, that if the claims made for this method are verified it is possible that these patents will prove to be of even far greater value than those granted on the electric light and the telephone. Peabody, Mass., April 2S.—The Poole & Jacobs factory and contents, Murphy & (.'bases' gondola factory and George Clark's ■kin board factory were burned last night. LOKS, *10,000. Should this reduction be taken from internal or from customs revenue, he asked, or from both, and, if from both, what proportion from eachl The Republican party insisted that the protective system should not be disturbed except so far as might be necessary to correct its incongruities and harmonize its provisions. If congress followed tbe lead of the president in his bold declarer tion and secured a reduction by such a revision of tbe tariff as he proposed, leaving untouched as he suggested the internal revenue system, not only would the protective system be destroyed, but the nation would be out on the highway of free trade. In referring to the picture of the Savior, the witness said that it camo in the presence of a lady who would come forward and so testify if she were not afraid of appearing in court. He afterward said that the lady was Helen Potter, the elocutionist A. B. Brown's Bee Hive. Pittston Pa. Banqueting Buffalo's Bishop. Smith's Columbo Bitters sold everywhere.

Bishop Ryan and his companions left for Buffalo to-day, THE EMPEROR'S CONDITION ftWAl There was a weary lot of this. When cross-examined by Mr. Townsend the witness surpassed any previous recital by telling of one of his earliest sittings with the medium in the Washington place house. Mrs. Debar had retired from the room while he held a canvas for an oil painting. The children came to the window and asked for bread and butter; a picture had taken form, but as Mrs. Debar ran to quiet the children it disappeared. When she returned another and different picture was produced. THE NEW ENGLAND l*ardonttrt by the President A Little Feverish, but Considered to bt slightly Better.
