The House this morning adopted Mr. Steele’s resolution instructing the com mittee on elducation to consider the sub ject of opening all State educational insti tutions to females, to be reported, on by bill or otherwise.

Chancellor & Pearce. of the Sunday law would hardly be at tempted. Mr. Pettus stated that the temperance question had been fought over several times in his couuty, and was now settled to the satisfaction of all the people of Dallas county, and he did not want it re opened. If any gentleman on the floor wanted this bill for his county, it was all right, and he would vote for it, but he wanted to exempt the counties of Dallas and Hale from its operation. Mr. Hill offered an amendment to exempt Montgomery county from the operations of the bill. Mr. Brewer thought the bill ill-advised, and while he was satisfied to have all members who desired their counties ex empted amend the bill, but after all the amendments were adopted he would vote against the bill. lie knew as a fact that England is to eat and dripk together, and The barroom is strictly an American insti tution.' - ' Mr. Lewis offered a motion to indefin itely postpone the hill and amendments.

IT IS THE ALL-ABSORBING TOPIC IN GERMANY. THE SECRET OK THE LYMPH TO 1!E GUARDED STILL—KMPKKOlt WIL LIAM COQUETTING WITH LORD SALISBURY. THE QUAKER CITY EXCITED OVER TWO FINANCIAL SENSATIONS. Philadelphia, November 29. — The failure of B. K. Jameson & Co. divided the attention of the street this morning with the startling publication of John A. Baker, Jr.’s, gigantic forgeries. The gen eral opinion seems to be that the failure of Jamison & Co. will be worse than at first reported. -The firm are said to have been large borrowers lately, and several financial institutions of this city are thought to have been heavily hit by their suspension. The failure has had no ap preciable effect on the local stock market, stocks being dull but steady. As yet the firm have not made any statement regard ing their position, and Assignee Thomp son, said it would be impossible to give even an approximate estimate of the assets and liabilities. No information in regard to Baker’s enormous speculations will be made public by counsel of the absconder’s family. It is the general impression that Baker has made good his escape from the country and will not be apprehended. State Treasurer Boyer today entered two suits in the Common Pleas Court against B. K. Jamison A Co. upon their bond for $100,000, dated in June last, to secure the | payment ot the Mate’s money, which the j firm are said to have had in their posses- j sion. In the affidavit, filed with the bond, i Boyer avers that the amount due on the j bond filed in the action and the judgment I thereon is $25,000, that being the amount | at this time on deposit with Jamison <£ I Co. By the suit it 13 sought to hold, not I only the firm, hut the individual members \ responsibl e. INTERNAL REVENUE COLLECTORS. I Washington, November 29.—The Col- j elections of Internal Revenue during the | absolutely pure taken up. Mr. Sayre called the attention of the House to the provision of the hill which he characterized as a radical measure. He believed that the bill was conceived as a temperance measure, and its effect, the originators thought would be to preveut the violation of the laws against the sale of liquors on Sun lay. In this, he thought, the measure would be inoper ative, because the violation of the Sunday laws was a secret hack door affair, while on the other hand, the restaurant was an open, public place, in which the violation $1,198,616 on tobacco, and $1,301,550 on j fermented liquors. EARTHQUAKE SHOCK IN AUSTRIA. i Vienna, November 29.—A series of , shocks of earthquake was tell at Gauners- • dorf, Lower Austria, today. Some of the j shocks were very severe. Houses oscil lated on their foundations, and the spires of churches swung to and fro, causing the bells to dang. The inhabitants of the town were panic-stricken and fled to the open country for safety. Berlin, November 29.—[Copyright, 1890, by New York Associated Press.]— Dr. Von Gassier, Prussian Minister of ecclesiastical affairs, replying in the Lower House of the Diet today to an interpella tion of Herr Graff, as to what measure the Government intended to take to promote the adoption of Prof. Koch’s remedy, de clared that the aspersions cast upon cer tain physicians engaged in using the lymph had proved groundless. The finance min istry, Dr. Von Gassier said, had placed at the disposal of Prof. Koch sufficient funds to enable him to continue bis inquiries and prodndrtlre lymph. There was now good ground to hope that the remedy would be found to be efficacious in the treatment of other diseases than tuberculosis. Care had been taken to make the remedy perfectly accessible to the poor. In the course of time, the prepara tion of the lymph would be intrusted to competent, persons employed by the State. A private gentleman had given 1,000,- 000 marks, the Minister stated, to be used for the benefit of poor persous suffering from tuberculosis. He had requested Prof. Koch to make public only to a limited extent the camposition of the lymph, so as to ren er its imitation im possible. Touching the present preparation of the lymph, Hr. V'011 Gassier said that Professor Koch and Liberts and Pfuhl had been at work solely in procuring a supply and had demonstrated that it could be procured very cheap. Regarding the ques tion of placing the manufacture of iympn under the exclusive control of the State, Dr. Von Gassier thought that a feeling of satisfactio . would be experienced through out the world if Prussia should set her stamp upon the lymph, but the guarantee must be given against financial or subsidia ry conditions. The Government would invite other nations to send representa tives to study the use of the remedy in order that they might apply it in their own countries. Dr. Von Gasster’s state ment, indicating as it does an intended prolonged guarding of the secret of the lymph, disappointed the numerous foreign medical men assembled here. The Eng lish group assert that it is hopeless to ex pect their college of physicians to recog nize the use of lymph, as it is against the canons of the college to permit the applD cation of a remedy the composition of which is a secret. Dr. Kowalksky, the leading Austrian army physician and chief of the Institute of Bacherialogy at Vienna, defends the guarding of the preparation of the lymph on the ground that it is one of the most powerful medicines discovered and cannot be applied too cautiously. Prof. Koch says If it were placed without reserve iu the the haudB cf all practition ers, more deaths would result from its use titan ever were, caused by consumption. Five pat'ents who were under treatment by the Koch method have died in this city. Two gir.s w ho were in an advanced stage of tuberculosis and a child suffering from brain tubercles died soon after the first in jection, and one voting man died from hemorrhage after having received several injections. The fifth death was that of a soldier who was under treatment for lnpus. A limited company is being formed in Munich, under Prof. Ziemsen, with a capital of 2,000.060 marks, to establish a Koch .Sanitarium ia the old Gunpowder Palace. Emperor William is at the Prince of Piess’ country seat in .Silesia. His Majesty hunts daily. The Reichstag w ill Ye asked for 50,000,- 000 marks tor ih<- army, a part of which is to provide new munitions and a part to alter the color of uniforms in order to ren der the m it. ments of troops less distrust. Henceforth, no glitter of head-piece or arms will be permitted. A sombrj unifoim is a necessity under the j new tactics. Since the Parnell developments have | shattered Gladstone’s chances of a return to power, the report lias arisen and is crediteil in diplomatic circles, that Lord Salisbury has accepted an in vitation of the Emperor to come to Berlin, The invitation is of long stand Men’s Suits. Will offtr this wi ek 100 fine wool Suits, sizes 33 to 42, for $12 each; goods have so d for $16 and $18. Many other Suits proportionately low. Children’s Suits $2 to $o. Chancellor & Pearce, ing, and its acceptance is believed to imply a meeting with Caprivi, C’rispi and Kal- noky, and a more open adhesion by the English Government to the policy of the Dreebnnd. The extinction of Gladstone is the most gratifying news that Emperor William and his circles have ever heard from England. The first bill to come before the Reich stag on Tuesday will be one providing for raising the revenue from sugar from 80 - 000.000 marks to 83,000,000. This in crease in the revenue is to be effected by abolishing the tariff on raw sugar and in creasing the duty on the refined article. THE INDIAN MESSIAH. THE FRAUD THAT IS I’RACTICED ON POOR I.O. Washington, November 29.—J. S. Mayhugh, until recently special agent of the Indians for Nevada, has written to the Indian bureau upon the subject of th« Indian Messiah. In bis letter, Mayhugh says: “The prophet resides in Mason X'alley, Esmerelda county, Nevada, close to the Walker river reserva tion. His name is not Johnson who resides at Reno, but Capt. Jack Wil son, known among all Indians by th* Indian names of We-No-IIar, and also Co- We-Jo, an intelligent, fine-looking Indian about thirty-five years of age, who goes into trances, or seemingly so, from twelve to fourteen hours in the presence of large numbers of Indians. L T pon his recovery, he relates to them that he has been to heaven and that the Messiah is coming to the earth again and will put the Indians in possession of this country; that he has seen in heaven heap of Indians, some whom are dressed in white men’s clothes. He counseled the Indians not to disturb the white folks, saying that a blanket and rabbit skin that were put over the moon by the Indians long ago, will soon fall off and then the moon, which is now a fire, will destroy the whites. The Messiah is to appear on Mount Grant, which is a very large mountain, held by .he Indians to be sacred, and situated about sixteen miles south of the Walker river agency buildiDgs, and on the west side of the lake. Here is where the first Indians appeared, according to the Indian tradition. May hugh says he understands that various tribes expect to send delegations to this mountain, and he recommends that they be allowed to visit the mountain to see for themselves what truth there is in the prophesy. ENTERTAINING THE RRAZILIANS. Washington, November 29.—-The Bra zilian naval officers were taken down the river to Mount Vernon on the United States steamer Dispatch this morning. They were accompanied by Admiral Walker and Lieutenants Mason, Bucking ham and Staunton. This evening the vis itors were entertained at dinner by the Metropolitan Club. Monday night Secre tary Tracy will give a reception in their honor at the Arlington. The party leave here for New York Tuesday morning. ANOTHER GIGANTIC TRUST. Chicago, November 29.—A local paper says: The threshing machine men of the United States have caught the infection from their brothers of the binders, and are busily engaged in forming a gigantic trust, which it is thought will rival in magni tude the recently formed Har vester Company. Negotiations are now going on in this city between the representative men of the principal threshing machine works in the country. It is known that a temporary organization'has been effected and that very soon articles of incorporation will be filed, covering a combine with a capital stock of at least $20,000,000. RIDICULING STANLEY. Paris, November 29.—Col. Chaillie Long, the Franco-American chief of Gen. Gordon’s staff during the Soudan cam paign in 1874, in an interview, ridicules Stanley’s early statements regarding the conversion to Christianity of the King of Uganda. lie calls the rescue of Emin Pasha a philanthropic masquerade, and generally questions the truth of Stanley’s accounts of his journey. Col. Long pre dicts that Stanley will be found to have been guilty of imposture and disloyalty, and challenges an answer his assertion.
