LIST KAIL IS BOEUXGER'S COFFIN In a London theater last night, "Whistler, the famous artiit, attacked Editor Moore with a cane. He was promptly knocked down. Other parties joined in the fracas, which has caused a sensation. TET PUXLAF'S CAI1LE COMPAItT.J LoisDON, September 6. A most dis graceful and exciting fist fight between James McXeil Whistler, the celebrated artist; Augustus M. Moore, the proprietor and editor of the society newspaper, the Haul; and William Horace Lingard, the well-known theatrical manager, occurred to-night in the foyer of the Theater Boyal, Drury Lane. The theater was crowded with people who, were all more or less acquainted, for it was the occasion of the opening of the autumn season, and the production of the new drama by Augustus Harris and Henry Pettit, en titled, "A Million of Money." It was during the interval between the third and fourth acts that thesceneoccurred. Mr. Augustus M. Moore was standing in a circle formed by a group of his friends, who were all talking in a most animated manner and discussing the brilliant triumph which had just been achieved by Charles Glenny. A BLACK THOKN- STIfK. Suddenly Mr. James McUiel Whistler, with his large eye-glass in his right eye and his fiat-brimmed stove-pipe hat on his head, entered the loyer talking with a friend named Butterfield. He carried in his hand a black-thorn stick which, with a peculiarity that belongs to the artist of the butterfly signature, is much longer than is generally used. Immediately on catching sight of Moore Whistler raised the heavy stick he carried and rushed at the editor of the Ilaick, whose hat was smashed with the first blow. Be fore he could recover lrom the surprise of the attack Whistler began to beat him aio't mercilessly about the head, still with the stick, and at the same time shouted at the tqp of his voice and in contemptnous tones, "Hawk! hawk! hawk!" Moore's temper was at once aroused and, he struck Whistler one blow below tbe eyes straight from the shoulder, which felled the artist to the floor. The noise of this occur rence had drawn several people to the scene, and some of Whistler's friends joined the fracas amid great uproar, which threatened to assume serious proportions. A VEKT LIVELY BOW. Eventuallv Moore was pushed into the American bar, and kept there by force while the acting manager of the theater, Mr. Fletcher, who stands about six feet in his stockings, seized the illustrious artist, wbo was kicked out of the house without further ceremony. All was quiet for a moment. Then a fresh scene occurred. While the various groups in the lobby, in one of which was Augustus Moore, were discussing the late Iracas and its summary termination, Will iam Horace Lingard entered tbe fover and rushed straight at Moore and smashed him in the face. The attack was so sudden and unexpected that Moore did not even see liim coming, nor did anyone else notice him till the blow was heard, and immedi ately the two men were locked in a fierce tussle before it was possible for any of their friends to interfere. The noise of tbe scuffle was heard inside the theater, and many people who were settling into their places in anticipation of the rising of the curtain on the fourth act, went out again to discover the cause of the confusion. THE "W0KST OP THE ENCOUNTER. The combatants were eventually parted. Mr. Lingard having1 had decidedly the worst of the encounter. Augustus Harris is rem irkably irate at the disturbance, as this is the first time since the theater has been under his management that anything approaching so disgraceful a scene has oc curred there. Mr. Moore was seen after the perform-. by a reporter, to whom he said that he was quite at a loss to account for Mr. Whistler's conduct, for the Hawk had not published anything about him for several weeks. Mr. Whistler vanished immediately after his summary ejectment from the theater, and it was impossible to find him to learn his ver sion of the affair and causes which led to his sudden attack. Mr. Lin gard, however, was on, hand and was seen after the play, bv which time he had arranged his dress, which had been pulled about in the melee. He said he had heard in the the theater that Whistler had tried to thrash Moore in the lobbv, and that fact had reminded him that 'he also had a grudge against the editor who had made many nasty remarks about him in the llaxck. He added, however, that he was sorry he had allowed his temper to get the CABMEN SUVA WITH TEE WELSH. She is Initiated Into the Mysteries of the Bardic Circle. BT CABLE TO TBE DISPATCH. LONDON, September 6. Carmen Silva, Queen of Boumania, had a great day at the Welsh eisteddfod, at Bangor, on Thursday. She was admitted into the Bardic Circle, initiated into the mysteries of Welsh Bard ism and invested with the blue rib bon of the order by the venerable Archdrutd. Later, when the victorious bard was crowned, she laid her hand with those oi the other bards upon tbe gleaming sword held by the Archdruid, whereat the multitude assembled shouted and danced with joy. The Qneen went through the whole ot the proceedings with zest and listened with apparent interest to the rendering ot many Welsh poems. She declared she had for years taken a great in terest in Cymric history, and to prove it read a little thing of her own, dated from Llandudno, the same with the refrain, "Hail, Cyturu, Old Cymru Forever." In spite of the presence of the Queen of Boumania, however, the Welsh felt the absence of Stanley severely, and wondered if lie was really as sick "as Lady Burton's letter from Switzerland, where the dis tinguished explorer was visiting Sir Bichard Burton, indicated. As this morning's dispatches say that Stanley, though still very weak, climbed two or three mountain peaks yesterday, the eisteddfod would doubtless be reassured. It was a somewhat singular coincidence that Bev. John Bowlands, who presided over the Welsh National is a namesake of Stanley, John Bowlands being the ex plorer's name before he changed it to that of his adopted father and benefactor, and the one that he inscribed in the visitors' book in Dudley Castle when on a visit to his mother after his first trip to America.

The Ileal Estate Agent Reinrni to Tnke Charge of His Business He Will Far What He Owes, and Expect Other to Do tlio Sme. A. C. Jarrett, the Southside real estate agent, came home yesterday morning from St. Paul, in company with James Camp bell, and, as was expected by his friends all along, will be in his place of business to morrow. He was seen at his home on Car sou street last night by a Dispatch re porter, to whom he made a statement in re gard to his trip West and the talk that has been indulged in about his personal affairs by uninterested people, during his absence. Mr. Jarrett said: "I will be in my office attending to busi ness as usual on Monday, and what is more I will be able to get out oi my financial dif ficulties all right. I cannot understand why people that have no interest in my af fairs should have taken advantage of me during my absence and talk about me as they did. I expect to pay everybody I owe, and I also expect those who owe me to pay up. Some of those who talked the most while I was away are indebted to me. But that is natural; when a man gets embar rassed the very men who ought to be his friends turn against him. "I did not go West because of raj finan cial embarrassment. Neither did I go for the purpose of disposing of railroad bonds. I went away to get a rest, because I needed it. The shaking up I got in the B. & O. wreck and the worry just about broke me down. I am feeling better now and ready for business again." In regard to the statement that Mr. Camp bell was his business partner, Mr. Jarrett said they were only interested to- f ether in the purchase of a few ots. And the reason Mr. Campbell had gone to St. Paul for Mr. Jarrett, was because the latter had requested him, as a friend, to do so. Mr. Jarrett's sickness has had a telling effect on him. He is pale and haggard and physically wom out. Several people who were spoken to last night on the Southside said they were not surprised at seeing Mr. Jarrett return. They had confi dently expected he would return and that everything would come out all right, and they still believe so. Their opinions are based on past business dealings with the real estate agent. t THE SUMMONSES ABE- SEBVED (SPECIAL TILEPBAU TO THE PISPATCH.1 Cbesson Springs, September 6,-fOne of the first visitors and almost the only one to the President this morning was General Eakin. He remained with His Excellency about an hour, during which they chatted on entirely personal matters. The Presi dent is extremely tired, and all of to-day kept away Jrom the hotel except when he came over to the dining room. Even then he avoided publicity by entering the dining room through the bay window which opens off the piazza. .Only the few people seated near knew when the President and his family were in the hotel, and as they greeted him in passing he replied with a courteous bow bnt did not speak. There has been no more enthusiasm to-day than there was yesterday over the presence of the Chief Executive of the nation; yet, at the same time, a distinctly friendly feel ing is entertained by all. PLEASED WITH TBE LADIES. This is due in great part to the ladies of the Harrison household. Their demeanor has been pleasing in the extreme. There is no doubt that when they first came to Cresson they were narrowly .watched, so that the slightest attempt at snobbishness might be noted. But an agreeable disap pointment is now being felt, and those that were most coldly inclined toward the Presi- dental party are now tbe warmest in their praise. The retiring disposition and un affectedness of the three younger ladies, who chummed it in a pleasant way with eyery- Mrs. Harrison touched him on the arm to receive and acknowledge an introduction. RECEPTION IN BE PAELOK. The much-stared-at pair made their way slowly to the parlor. A moment later a murmur of "Beceptlon" passing" from one to another caused all to- lorsaKe their com panions and rush to the parlor. Tbe Presi dent stood iu the parlor about ten minutes. He looked a little less, grim than the day before, but still he was' in marked contrast to the self-possessed woman, always with an agreeable look on her face, who stood beside him his wife. Mr. Halford stood beside the President, and to him yon pronounced your name, which he repeated to the Presi dent The President shook hands, and then if you were self-possessed enough to step aside and chat with Mrs. Harrison, well and good; if not, yon passed on re joicing. The parlor was full of Pittsburg people, and tbe chidren danced away regardless of tne proximity ot the President. When the reception was over the President and his wife went home, but for a good while alter Mrs. Bussell Harrison and Mrs. McKee, nodding to those they knew and looking pleasantly at all, walked about the hotel, wane tne guests separated into little Knots of gossipers, or parties at a game of cards. NO BUSINESS "WANTED. Mr. Brfssell Harrison came this evening on the 11:15 train; he will only stay a few days, at Cresson. Mrs. McKee expects to go to Indianapolis on Monday, to stay lor a short time. The President's mail has not reached ab normal proportioas,but still it is big enough to satisfy an ordinary man. No official business of any kind has been transacted so far at Cresson, and if the President has his way about it, none will be transacted while he st,ays upon the mountain top at Cresson.

The campaign of 1890 for the election of a Gov ernor, Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Internal Affairs gives promise1 oi being one of the most memorable ever fought in the history of Pennsylvania politics. For months past the preparation of the detail work has been going on in the headquarters of the two great political parties, and the remaining time between now and the second Tuesday of November will be devoted to stirring up the voters. What serves to make the campaign inter esting is the fact that a large number of Re publicans throughout the State regard the Bepublican candidate for Governor as the directrepresentative of United States Senator Qnay, who is the chairman of the Bepub lican National Committee, and the most conspicuous man in public life to-day, not excepting President Harrison pr Speaker Beed. THE issue of the HOUR. Both the great political parties have set forth their principles in the platforms adopted by the respective State conventions, but all issues have been made subservient to the single question: "Shall Quay rule or not?" No one more than the junior Senator lrom this State recognizes the true situation of affairs. He realizes fully that the fight in the State is being made to break his power in the political world-. His prominence in national affairs, and his known mastery of the Bepublican organization in this State has drawn upon him the fire of all that army of disappointed seekers for places, and that class of Republicans who are always ready to protest against the violent personal con trol of the nominating conventions by any man or set of men. In addition to those already mentioned in opposition there is an apparent effort on the part ot certain stalwart Republicans particularly in Allegheny, Philadelphia and Schuylkill counties, Who, in their enmity to Quay, have been hard at work stirring up the fires of discord inthe!respect ive counties in order to strike at Quay whom they hold responsible ior the appoint ment oi leading Federal officials who are inimical to their political welfare and who protest against his political methods. THE INDEPENDENTS OF 1882. The old Independent Republicans are divided this year. Under the lead of Philip I C. Garrett, ex Chairman of tbe committee of one hundred of this city, many of them are supporting Senator Delamater for the Governorship, while others of them, under the leadership of Wharton Barker, Henry C. Lea and Geo. E. Mapes, Chairman of the Independent Bepublican State Com mittee, are at work preparing an organiza tion for practical work during the campaign aud a formidable organization ot new In dependents will soon take the field. Senator Quay has never been accused of not knowing the condition of any political contest in which he engages, and his coat is now off in an effort to win what will prove one of his greatest political victories, or, if lost will serve to forever weaken his present poltical prestige. His friends realize the importance of the battle and they are wheel ing into line to render any needed assistance. The first move for position was made by Senator Quay when he introduced the reso lution into the United States Senate, calling for action on the VcKlnley tariff bill and postponing consideration of the election measure known as the force bill. Penn sylvania is the greatest manufacturing State in the Union and her manufacturers are more interested in secuiing increased tariff taxes than in caring how the votes of the Southern negro are counted. IMPORTANT ASSISTANCE. The State leaders have assured Senator Quay that the passing oflhe McKinleybill will help the campaign on tbe Bepublican side and supply the needed funds, and he can be depended upon to leave nothing un done to have the bill become a law at the earliest day possible. Thomas Dolan, the well-known manufacturer, who is stalwart in his Republicanism, was one of tbe first from this city with a party of other business men to visit Washington and impress npon Senator Quay the importance of the move made by him to shelve the eleotion bill and work for the passing of the tariff legisla tion. Chairman Andrews, of the Bepublican State Committee, who is recognized as one of the most trusted followers of tbe Qaay faction and a warm personal friend of the candidate for Governor, will not lose the coming fight if hard work and attention to tbe details of practical politics will make him a winner. Since the State nominations were made he has bad a corps of expeiienced clerks at Work at headquarters uude'r the direction of the sphinx-like Morrison, of Allegheny county, whose years of experience in'practical work fits him well for the dnties of the position assigned him. EVERY COUNTY WATCHED. Beports from all sections of the State are daily received by Chairman Andrews, and the most simple letter addressed to him is carefully and quickly answered. Every one of the Bepublicau county chairmen is taught that upon his shoulde'rs 'rests the re sponsibility of defeat, and frequent visits are paid by them to the State Chairman. Asa worker Chairman Andrews is untir ing.. He can be found at the Bepublicau headquarters at almost any honr of the day or night. In fact, he sleeps in Boom 2 of the Continental Hotel, which is one of the suite of rooms which comprises the Bepub lican headquarters. As a hard worker and .gnrootn taiser, wnn a convincing manner ism, Chairman Andrews is a decided suc cess. Robert E. Pattison was nominated for Governor by the Democratic State Conven tion at Scranton because the leaders of that party regarded him as tbe strongest candi date to be pitted against Senator Delamater, and also because it was thought that with the record of his previous administration as Governor he would be strong enough to draw from the Bepublican ranks a sufficient number of votes to insure his election. With a candidate in whom they have every confidence the Democratic leaders, under the direction of Chairman Kerr, who has estab lished headquarters in this city, are prepar ing to unmask their batteries and the lead ing eun of the campaign will be fired at Beading at the State Convention ot the Democratic societies, which has been called to meet on September 15. A POWERFUL RESERYE. Chairman Kerr will have behind him in his efforts to elect the Democratic State ticket the entire strength of the Independ ent Bepublican State Committee, and the support of all the anti Quay Bepublicans throughout the Statf. He is in communication with the disaffected elements of the Bepublican party throughout the State, and reports as to the number of the Republican voters who will support Pattison are furnished him from the respective counties. " une tning has been determined npon, and 'that is that the Democrat organization will not d(r any mud-slinging during the cam paign. The contemplated attacks npon Senator Quay and .Candidate Delamater will be made by the dissatisfied Repub licans, and the lice of campaign on the Democratic side will be the perfection of their organization and the holding of their party vote. Chairman Mapes, of the-Independent Be publican State Committee, is well known on account of his record as a legislator, he during his term of service in the lower house at Harrisburg having frequently up set schemes which were intended to assist in emptying the State Treasury. mt0 CHAIRMAN 1IAPE3 SATISFIED. Mr. Mapes has made a tour of the counties in the northwestern part of the State, and reports himself thoroughly satisfied with the outlook. His headquarters, which have been established at 931 Chestnut street, will be kept open from now until the closing of the campaign. Efforts will be made to have the disaffectedgBepublicans organized and their votes go dirct to tbe Democratic candi date for Governor. Literature will be abundantly distributed, and every possible effort made to overthrow Quay. It is some time yet until election day, but when the batteries are opened, which will be within the present month, and the new! In dependents and the old Independents, both working in harmony with the "Democratic organization, set the fnr living; the Republic ans who are lor the straight ticket will be kept hustling. ON A LIMITED PLAN Reciprocity Will be Placed in Tariff Bil( by the Senate. the EEED IS HOT TET ENTHUSIASTIC, And liven This blight Concession May be Kefased by the House. BEED 13 7EBY COHHDENT That Ho Will be Vielorions Monday by n nenvy Majority. Portland, Septembers. The campaign in Speaker Seed's district closed this moru ine, when more than 3,000 attended a mass meeting in City Hall nnder the auspices of the Young Men's Bepublican Club, whose banner hung above the platform, where sat 75 members. President Walter C. Emerson had charge. Mr. Beed's entrance with Major McKinley was greeted with long applause and cheers by the audience, which was larger and more enthusiastic than any other dnring the campaign. Beed was intro duced by Mr. Emerson. He referred to the influence of the Mclvinley bill on business; also to the silver bill, saying the United States circulating medium was the best in the world, and he called upon Major Mc Kinley to deliver the speech of the evening. This was the latter's first Portland speech, and-was the most eloquent one oi the cam paign, being devoted to the tariff as affect ing business prosperity. Speaker Beed stated today that he anticipated a majority of 1,500 in his district. A CHAKGE IS THE TIN PLATE SECTION. Kennedy Kow Tows That He 'Will Print TSat Speeea la the Eeeord. If reciprocity gets into the tariff bill at aiy t will be on a very narrow scope. Beed is still opposed to the scheme in any form, and may yet defeat it in the House. The Senate has adopted Spooner's amendment to the tin plate paragraph. SIQ BATTLE IN BEBKS Between the Warring Faction for the Con trol ot tbe Itrpnbllcan OrganlziUoD. tSFZCIAL TELEGRAM TO THI DISPATCH.! Beading, September 6. The Bepublican primaries were held in this city and county to-night, and were the most hotly contested in the history of, the party in Berks, i The only offices at stake were a County Commis sioner, Prison Inspector and County Audi tor. The entire fight was against August M. High, who has so far dispensed all the patronage in Berks county as the represen tative ot Senator Quay. High wants to be Postmaster, and High and anti-High delegates were run in every one of the 68 districts in city and county. In this city High will probably have a nar row majority of one, out of 39 delegates, while iu the county the prospects are that High will have a majority against him. Whoever wins will only have a narrow ma jority. HOT FIGHT Iff TEHHE8SEE. One Thousand Seven Hundred aniLSevenly Nine Ballon Taken. Memphis, September 6. The Democratic Convention, which convened in this city three days ago for the purpose of nominating a member for Congress from this district, adjourned this evening until Monday with out havim; made a selection. One thousand seven hundred and seventy nine ballots have been taken. The con testants are Judge Galloway and T. K. Biddick. ACTION OF POLITICAI. CLUBS. Delegates Elected by Several to the Repub lican State Meeting-. At the meeting of the Americus Club last evening, a number ot replies in answer to the resolution of the club indorsing the Federal election law from prominent Be publicans were read. On motion of Captain J. A. Beed the club reiterated its position on the measure. It was also decided to turn out at the Delamater meeting, next Satur day evening. The election of delegates to the State League meeting in Philadelphia resulted in the choice of Colonel W. H. Eeid, A. J. Bdwards and A. M. Voigbt; J. P. Andrews, George L. Holliday and Gus Dolte are al ternates. Colonel Beid is a candidate for delegate to the National League, and will probably be elected. He will advocate a more equitable method of representation. As it is now, the Americus Club, with its 700 members, has two delegates, while the Quay Club of Allegheny, with 32 members, has also two delegates. Another feature he will advocate is the inauguration of a system by which the clubs will be put to more prac tical use in all campaigns. The Fourth Ward Home Market Bepnb lican Club was organized yesterday with B. H. Lindsay, President; G. H. "Truescb, Secretary, and W. E. Reynolds, Treasurer; Chief, J. O. Brown, J. C. Brown and George H. Truesch with Samuel M. Clark, W. D. Moore and W. B. Beynolds as alternates were elected delegates to the Bepublican Convention September 23 to be held at Philadelphia. An attempt was made to reorganize the Eleventh. Ward Bepublicau Marching Club last night. Many of the boys have destroyed their suits since 1868, and they decided to abandon the idea. ISrZCIAI. TILIOBAM TO THI PISFATCH.1 Washington, September 6. Tne tariff bill was practically finished to-day, with the exception of the sugar schedule, and its reciprocity accessory which are left to the last moment. It had been decided'that de bate should close to-day, but the Senatorial statesmen felt so sorry that the end of their oratory was reached they concluded they must have just one more day, and therefore Monday will be . devoted to sugar and reciprocity in half-hour speeches, meeting at 10 o'clock and. adjourn, ing at G, and thus affording opportunity for just 16 more good-sized speeches. It is quite certain that the Aldrich reci procity amendment, which is the amend ment of the Finance Committee, will be adopted aud that free sugar will be made contingent on reciprocity. II is not prob able that any broader reciprocity scheme than this will receive the sanction of Con gress at this time, and it is thought that in view of the silence of Speaker Beed in his campaign speeches on this subject even this timid approach to reciprocity may be crushed out in the Honse. A TIN PLATE CHANGE. During tbe debate to-day. Mr. Spooner offered the amendment proposed by him on- the 20th of August to the tin paragraph. It provides for tbe admission of tin plates lree of duty after the 1st ol October, 1896, in case the American production of the articie shall not equal, in any ot the intervening years, one -third of tbe amount imported and en tered ior consumption. Mr. Plumb moved to amend the amend ment by providing for a duty of 1 cent a pound on tin plates and for a bounty of 1 cent a pound for the home product, and. Mr. Carlisle said that Mr. Spooner's amendment was a confession that there was no expectation of the manufacture of tin plates in the United States. Mr. Spooner denied the correctness of that assumption and argued in support of his amendment. Plumb's amendment was defeated, and the Spooner proposition, having been ac cepted by Senator Aldrich, was adopted without much opposition. Mr. Aldrich, for tbe Finance Committee, offered an amendment imposing a duty of 4 cents a pound on tin. Agreed to without the yeas and nays. EETALIATING UPON CANADA. Mr. Evarts offered the amendment pro posed by him yesterday imposing a duty of 10 per cent advalorem on all teas, 'the growth or prodnce of the countries east df the Cape of Good Hope, when imported from places west of t,he Cape of Good Hope. """ He made a statement in explanation and advisory of the amendment which is in tended to put a stop to tbe,irapprta.tioa of tea by the way of Canada and of tbe Cape of Good Hope instead of directly from China. Mr. Sherman disapproved of the amend ment as being a retaliatory measure, the only effect of which would be to add to the cost of tea. He had no excuse to offer for the course of Canada in imposing additional duties in tea and coffee imported from the United States, which course he regarded as perfectly ridiculous. Mr. Spooner moved to amend Mr. Evarts' amendment by adding to it the following: "There shall be levied and collected upon all coffee, creen, from the Dominion oi Can ada 10 per cent ad valorem, and upon all coffee, roasted or ground, from the Domin ion of Canada 3 cents per pound aud 10 per cent ad valorem." The question was taken on Mr. Spooner's amendment and it was re jected. Mr. Evarts' amendment, as modi fied, was agreed to. KENUBDY WHi PBINT IT. The AS ECCENTRIC CHARACTER.

Abel Pittsburg the Lan- Iioteit Rumor Concerning; HI Attack Upon Senator Qnny. imou a sTArr conRxspoxOEXT. Washington, September 6. Gossip runs to-day that "Bob" Kennedy has de cided to print his speech, and not only to , print it, but to print it word for word as bo read it from his manuscript. If he prints it he will be even more conspicuous for some time thereafter than he has been for the last two or three days. Dalzell is lying in waft' with his resolution to expunge the speech from the Record, Boatner, tbe Louisiana Democrat, is ready to fire off his expulsion resolution, two or three other members have resolutions of censure, and the Senate awaits publication that it may express its feelings in the matter. Kennedy professes to believe that all of these resolutions are mere buncombe, proposed be cause their authors know they cannot be con sidered, and that if he gives all of his critics the "grand bluff" by publishing the speech in the Recqnrd without a word or letter changed, those same critics will hunt their holes, and never be heard of more. It would be quite in accord with the char acter of the man if he should take this course. It is even said that he has decided to let it go in the issue of to-morrow morn ing, that a day may pass after publication, curiosity and indignation wear themselves tired, and a calmer and lazier judgment take hold bf the affair Monday morning. The rumor has aroused adealot expectation, as it is generally believed that very lively proceedings wonld follow the publication in case it were made.

ITROM A STAIT COBRZSrOXniCT.t Washington, September 6. One ol tL-i most important trademark decisions ever rendered was given out at the Interior De partment to-day. It was the petition of Mr. Thomas C. Jenkins, the flour merchant of Pittsburg, for registration of the word "Vienna" as a. brand for flour. Under a!1 former decisions trademarks for geograph ical names were not granted, and the ap plication was three times rejected. Mr. Jenkins, however, appealed the case last month to the Commissioner of Patents, be fore whom tbe case was argned by Colonel Thomas S. Hopkins, ot this city, Mr. Jenkins' attorney, and to-day a decision was given overruling the'decision of the exam iner and allowing registration. The case is one of considerable magnitude because of the large amount ot capital in vested in the brand of flour bearing the name "Vienna." To Prepay Interest on Bonds. Washington. September 6.
