The senate adjourned without confirming N B Ashby of Iowa to a foreign court. President Cleveland reappointed him days later. The Cedar Rapids area papers discuss political tempers post assassination of Mayor Harrison and Prendergast, rail and postal warnings, and local electoral reflections. The Northwestern road reports strong World’s Fair traffic and solid summer operations before a travel lull.
