Mr. Hewitt explained the facta of his option on Ward's release, told Ward hew much be was wanted in Washington, and aaksd him to name his figures in the matter of salary. Mr. Ward said he nothing in that liue until he had aeon-and talked with John B. Day and discovered just what the New York Club proposed to do with Dim.

If the New York team does not want him, be will try to persuade the managers to let him co to Boston.

The season is from ten to twenty days in advance in Minnesota and the Upper Missouri Valley, one week in advance in New ngltnd. New York, and New Jersey: normal in the wheat region, and from two to four days late in the cotton region, The rainfall for the season has been in excess on the Atlantic coast from New York southward to Florida, and also from Texas northward to Dakota, In the cotton and wheat regions east of. the Mississippi the rainfall for tbe season ranges from 50 to 73 per cent of the normal, while in Southern Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Dakota and Texas there has been from 25 to 75 per cent more rain than uauiL Oa tbe Pacific coast the rainfall for the season has been slightly in excess in Southern California, about 75 per cent of the normal rainfall is reported Central California and about 40 per cent from Orogon and Washington Territory.

In pursuance to a resolution introduced by Senator Mitchell, there has been printed a letter from General Greely, of the signal service, npoa the rain-fall of the Paofle elope and Western States and Territories. Accompanying General Greely'e ltUer is a paper by Lieutenant GUoef ord, of the signal service, discussing the causes of the wet and dry seasons, the abund inoe and deficiency in different portions, summer rainy season in- Anaona, fortified with charts and uiblee exhaustive of the subject.

These tables cover observations from 681 station of an average length of aeven years and three mouths, aod the oh arts show separately the maxi mum, minimum, and mean rainfall for every month and tne year. The terms of the resolution made it General Greely'e duty to "express hie views upon the importance and value of these charts and tables and also inferential I to express bis opinion oa tbe question of recurring droughts in Texas, and in relation to the vexed question of increasing or decreasing rainfall in the arid or sub-humid regions of the United States. Pursuant to this instruction. General Greely discusses the matter at length. 1 Ha says: One great reeult which must redound to the benefit of the transmiasiesippt ana transmie-aouri country by tbe publication of these official data will be the dispelling ot erroneous and injurious impressions which have long prevailed regarding this extensive region, In the early century this territory was viewed as hardly suited for civilized man, its enormous plains and vast mountains being represented aa arid and desert regions, onsuited for cultivation, and in many places even unfit for pasturage.

Adventure, exploration, and circumstance have puabedtho frontier westward until the myths of the great American Desert to tue north, and of the ram-le "staked plains" to the south have practically disappeared. It is none the lees true, however, that the latest and most reliable American text-book of meteorology of this country speaks of the area "between the Sierra Nevadas and the Uocky Mountains, including portions of L'tatt, New Mexico and California," as "a region which is almost destitute of and that further on tne east side of the Bocky Mountains, "tue country is a Darren desert, almost without rain." Another great value of tbe charts is the bringing to general attention and consideration very exienskre areas of country in wuat has been known as tue arid region, where late aod careful observations have shown tne rainfall to be far greater thn tias been usually attributed, aud in ue trausier these areas to the sub-huniui districts. Chief Signal Officer puts it forward as his opinion that wneu Idaho. Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, aod Anaona, shad have been covered with rain-guagee as completely as New York or New Eujlaud tne final outcome of observation will indicate that actual arerage of rainiall for this arid region is now understated by the census cnarts from 20 to 40 and by these from lO to 15 per cent General Greeley notes that observations at sixteen stations indicate an increase In the rain fall, while eight snow a decrease, 'these stations are located in Texas, Nevada, New Mexico, Indian Territory, California, Arizona, and Kansas. In conclusion he says: "Ihs chief signal officer does not besilat to exprens the opinion that the trane-Miesissippt and trans-Missouri rain fall is slightly increasing aa a whole, though in certain localities it may be -slightly decreasing from causes set forth above, sou it seems most proper for him to put forth his strong conviction, even if it be not a certainty, when, aa in tnia case, it will tend to reassure the agricultural population in the lately drought-etricken districts of the West There appears no possible reason to believe tnat the scanty rain-fall of the past year or two will not be followed by increasing precipitation in the next few years, which will maintain the annual rain-fall of these sections at the average, or even increase tt it is believed tnat the interests of the entire country will be subserved by the publication of a large edition of the rainfall charts aud tables accompanying this report BBOOKLIS'S Tall aXI HILL.

Sranronaxp, HI, March 24, Mr. Baker will make a strenuous attempt in the House this week to have tbe Eckert-Baker telephone bills read in tbe first and ordered to the second reading. The House bill, which was reported back favorably by tbe Judiciary Committee two weeks ago, was placed on the order of first reading without objection of any kind; and the Senate bill which came over from that body the same day was placed on tbe calendar la the order of Senate bills on first reading. Every effort of tbe friend of the bills to have a Saturday session for tbe purpose of reading these bills a first time, and advancing them a step further toward tbe goal of passage, has been cleverly frustrated by Messrs. Merritt, Crafts, and other enemies of the bills, and unless Mr.

Baker shouM succeed in having tbe bills taken no at tbe brief session of to-morrow afternoon, it Is safe to ssy be will be ab.e to get tnem up later in the week, only after the litue fight. THE BEEP AND PORK COMBINE. SFBraarxxxD, HL, March 24, A few weeks ago the -Governor transmitted to both branches of the General Assembly copies of a resolution adopted by tho Kansas Legislature inviting the various State Legislatures of the West and Southwest to send representatives to a convention to be held in St, Louis, for tbe purpose of considering tbe legislation peoeasary for the regulation of the great beef and pork combine that is alleged to be controlling the markets of tbe West and Southwest. Eight delegates were aent to represent Illinois at this interstate congress three from the Senate and five from the House. Tbe seesions lasted two days, and the dispatches from bt Louia at the time indicated tnat the; proceedings were far from ha rmouiooa.

In fact, there was a scene of turbulence from beginning to end, the Illinois delegates protesting agaiast any measures that eould possibly work to the injury of tne great Cnieago packing houses aud the Texas people rebelling against any proposed legislation that tended to drive the feverish Texas steer from the markets of the Northwest A bill was finally reported bra committee providing for an inspection before daughter of cattle, sheep, and swine for tbe purpose ot determining their fitness for human food. This bill was the bone of contention during aa eight-hour discussion and a as supported by the deagate fron every btate except Texas ad Illinois. Texas objected to anything that would bar her feverl calt.e from the Chicago markets, and Illinois opposed the measure on the grounds that it would impose onerous restrictions upon the operaLons of tbe Four" packing houses in Chicago. Tbe bill waa finally adopted a (tor midnight by an overwhelming vote, the Illinois and Texas delegates Deing tne only ones tnat voted in the negative. It was clearly the duty of each delegation to report this bill to tbe legislative bodies of its respective State alter the dissolution of the convention, and this is understood to have been done by a.l except the Illinois delegation.

The gentlemen appointed by the Thirty-sixth General Assembly to represent Illinois at the interstate convention have made ao report whatever. In fact they have been as mute as oysters since their return, and are evidently trying to dismiss from their minds tbe harrowing remembrance thai there ever bas been a convention. It is stated that they have even decided to make no formal report whatever of the result of the bt Louis convention for fear tho Illinois farmers miff hi take a different view of tbe necessity of the inspection bill than is entertained by the raisers of the Texas steer and the Chicago slangnterer of this burly but somewhat suspicions antm.it Wearying of longer awaiting the report of this delexatiun, the Earmera' Cinb of the Illinois Legislature has secured copies ot the bill indorsed at the bt Louis convention and will have it introduced to-morrow in both branches of tbe General Assembly. They claim tbe passage of the measure will reeuit'io vast benefit to the Illinois stock raisers, as it will vigorously preclude the slaughtering at Chicago or elsewhere in the State of any animal afilioted with Texas fever or any other ailment peculiar to livo stock, aod give the corn and grass ted Illinois steer that advantage over feverish or infected cattle to whiou he should be entitled in the markets of the world.

IL Barutra presided, Many Grand Army men ware in be acdience. including General T.

T. Chittendia and General Carl Scours, There were also numerooa Confederate veterans present Major Joseph R. Stewart, one of the directors of the home, was ths principal speakers. Ha aid id part: -Sectionalism is beine fast obliterated from the minds and hearts of men, and tbe foemen of twenty-five years ago now march shoulder to shoulder In the struggles of civil conflict Ths valor and fortitude ot the Confederate dead is an ever-living heritage, not of the South, but of the entire Both sidoe of the conflict were but fitting exemplars of the American soldier. We rejoice that many thousand of Union veteran are bow upon the pension rolls and about 15,000 are' maintained by the gov ernment in comfortable homes, and at an an nual aggregate expense of about $100,000,000, and that they are honored wards of the Nation.

All honor to those men, and the government that sustains and upholds tbem with its bounty aod largely so by the votes of Southern men in tbe lawmaking power of the country. It is bnt fitting reward to them and a valuable lesson to the youth of our land. But what may be done for the hapless Confederate soldier who left aa arm and freely shed his blood as a willing sacrifice span the altar of 4 country that bad no sponsor at its baptism among the natious of the earth, and which was destined to sink like some bright planet of the heavens never more to rise again. It might be unwise and possibly a dangerous precedent to aid, at tbe phblia expense, those who fought against the old flag, and the South ern meu in both branches of our Congress have expressed disapproval of this policy. Bat may we not find vympathetie hearts and generous bands to aid us with thoir bounty?" The speaker went on to aay that for this purpose tbe Jobn B.

Hood Camp of Confederate Veterans eras chartered in tbe State of Texas. Il was not their purpose to foster ths ammosiriee of the past, but to administer to the wants of the suffering comrades. He reviewed the establishment of the Confederate Soldiers' Home at Austin, Texas, and said it bad been maintained for more than two years by private charity. After reviewing the great commercial prospects of the South aad its dependence upon the North, the speaker referred to tne negro question, ne saia. ins rreeaom or tne negro addea untoia Diesaings ua their former masters, tboutch their liberation at first seemed to be a crnel kind of logic, let.

This waa tne cause of party alignments, and this bad broken np the natural afiiltauona of the white voters. air. btewart concluded aa follows: "As while we would fight and die yea, we mean it die, if need be, to maintain the honor and integrity of that grand old flag, we will ever cherian the tenderest recollections of tbe Host cause and the flag that was never destined to float among the emblems of nations XOKXOXS DO SOT WAST ZAXE.
