Both were arrested and held, but no evidence could be produced against them. Larkins made a statement denying all knowledge of the affair.

The senate will resume business in earnest Monday, and the week bids fair to be one of important results. According to agreement a vote will be taken on the arbitration treaty on Wednesday. It is also quite probable that the committee vacancies will be tilled and that the tariff bill w ill be reported to the senate. For the rest Senator Morgan probably will call up the Cuban rcolutioii, the sundry civil appropriation bill may be passed and Senator Hoar has given notice that he will move to have the committee on rules discharged from the further consideration of his amendment to the rules for the limitation of debate. There is great uncertainty as to the fate of the treaty, anil it now looks as if the margin would not exceed two or three votes, whatever the result may be. There are a few unascertained votes which will decide the result. A canvass made yesterday shows 40 votes certain for the treaty and;!.") against it. There will be considerable sparring over the treaty before the vote is tal'en, but a prolonged debate is not expected. The programme in the house will be to continue its policy of adjourning to await action by the senate. ' 1 BRAVE A OLD MAN. PERILOUS UNDERTAKING OF CAPTAIN JAMES.

The hawser was hauled on board, but the sailors were too exhausted to mount to the rigging and make it secure. They made it fast to the anchor chains, which left the rope so slack that the breeches buoy could not he run upon it. The poor fellows must have perished had not a brilliant though perilous scheme occurred to the keeper. A rope was tied to the life boat's stern, the other end of the rope was placed in the hands of the crowd that had collected on the beach, the surfmen took their places beside the oars, but each grasped the hawser instead, and the slow, heavy work commenced of pulling the boat through the surf by main strength. The Ulrica was reached, the despairing 6ailors were assisted into the gallant little boat, and Capt. James signaled to "Haul ashore!" It was a moment of suspense, and then a loud shout of joy and triumph went up on Nantasket Beach, whose echoes were caught and repeated with enthusiasm all over the state of Massachusetts. But while the Boston papers were lavish in their, praise of the Indomitable keeper who organized and led this rescue in the face of a terrible tempest, not one of them once mentioned the fact that Captain Janies is seventy years of age.
