THE FINAL SCENES.
WHAT CONGRESS DID IN ITS
DYING MOMENTS.
The Usual Herne* of Dissolution Mark
the Closing Hour.
Tn tho early hours of Monday morn¬
ing, the senate passed a number qf
bills that were unobjected to. On mo¬
tion of Mr. Platt, of Connecticut, tho
house bill was paused amending the
copyright law by limiting the severity
of the penalty imposed on newspapers
for violating the law in producing
copyrighted photographs, etc. Mr.
Dubois, of Idaho, offered a resolution
amending the rules to provide for the
distribution of appropriation bills
among several committees of the sen
ate, instead of confining them as now
to the committee on appropriation**,
except the river nnd harbor bill, which
nt present goes to the commerce com
raittso. He asked its present consid
eration, but Mr. Aldrich, of Rhode
Island, objected, and Mr. Dubois gave
notice that ho would call up tho reso
lution on the first Monday of the next
congress. At, 1 :05 a. in., a recess was
taken until 9 o’clock with the under
standing that no business was to be
transacted until 11 o’clock, except in
connection with conference reports.
Only Messrs. Maudorson, Pettigrew
utiil Mitchell, of Wisconsin, were at
their desks when tho vice-president
rapped for order at 9 o’clock after a
recess of less than five hours. An
other short recess was taken to allow
the tardy members to come on deck,
At 9:45 a. in., when the proceedings
wero resumed, the vice-president an
non need bin signature to the deflei
eucy bill. 'This was the last formality
before taking tho important measure
to tho president. This was tho last of
tho appropriation bills, and thus all
of tho great measures for carrying on
tho government were either at the ex
eoutivo mansion or on their way there,
Littlo was done before 11 o’clock,
unanimous consent having been given
to confine tho business to conference
agreements. Not knowing this, Air.
Call, of Florida, mnde a parting effort
to launch a senatorial investigation of
the alleged lottery iniquities in Flor
ida. Being informed by Air. Harris
of tho agreement, Air. Call wanted to
know what the senate proposed to do
at 11 o’cffrivj t. “It wil l do what it
pleases, said M r. Harris, witlY his
usual explosiveness. “On the con
trary,” retorted Air. Call, “tho senate
nover does what it pleases, but what a
few pleases.” “It seldom does what
the senator from Florida pleases, but
olways what it pleases,” added Air.
Hsrris. Then tho senators lapsed into
inaction, waiting for tho concluding
liour to arrive,
At 10:45 a.m. Voorhees offered a
resolution, which was adopted, for the
appointment of a joint committee of
file two houses, two senators and two
mombers, to wait upon tho president
of the Uni tod Status and inform him
tlmt congress, having completed its
btisiuesH, was ready to adjourn. Tho
vico president named Air. Voorhccs
and Air. Sherman as the senate mem
hors of tho committee.
Tho Behring sea question made its
appearance briefly, when Air. Gray,
(tlcm. of Delaware), asked uuanimons
consent to take up the bill already
passed by the house concerning Bell
ring sea regulations, which he said
were essential to the preservation of
the fur seals. Air. Alorgan, chairman
of the committee on foreign relations,
objected. This ended the chances of
tho bill. Resolutions were adopted
for a recess investigation of senate
chamber ventilation and for continu
ing the committee assignments until
Deoember next.
Mr. Morrill, of Vermont, presented
a graceful compliment to the vice pres¬
ident, who had temporarily left the
chair, iu the form of a resolution
thauking him for tho ability, dignity
and impartiality with which he had ad
ministered the duties of presiding offi
cer. There was a unanimous adoption
of the rule.
Mr. Call again endeavored to secure
his Florida lottery appropriation, but
Mr. Gorman cut it off.
Mr. Ransom, the new minister to
Mexico, presented his resignation from
the printing committee, which was to
sit during recess.
It was now 11:30, and there was
great confusion ou the floor. Mr. Cali
whs again to the front with his lottery
investigation resolution, declaring ve
hementlv that Mr. Gorman was seek
ing to suppress au inquirv demanded
bv the religious commuubv. He vie
manded a yea and nay vote. To the
surprise of every one, including Mr.
Call, tho resolution was taken up, 35
to 18. For a moment it was believed
the resolution was adopted and the
presiding officer so announced. The
final vote was interrupted by other
business. Mr. Call did not press tho
motion further.
At 11:40, with only twenty minutes
remaining, a joint resolution was
passed for extra compensation of em
ployes. A messenger rushed away
with it in a race to get to the white
house anil secure tho president’s sig
nature within twenty miuutes.
The thanks of the senate were ex
pressed in a resolution offered by Mr.
Maudorson for the courtesy and im
partiality with president which Mr. Harris had
served as pro tem of the
senate. Mr. Harris then took tho
chair and returned his thanks for the
flattering resolution.
At twelve minutes to 12 the last en
rolled bill was reported to the senate
as signed by the vice-president, but it
seemed impossible to get tho executive
signature iu time.
At thifi moment Mr, Voorheos and

has notified him that the work of con
grc>s was at an end. The president
states that he has no further comma
nication to make and he tenders his
congratulations to congress on the
conclusion of its labors.
The vice president rose as the clock
pointed to two minutes to 12, for a
parting word to the senate.
The last words were uttered by the
vice president, being time to conclude
at 12, he brought his gavel down
sharply and declared the session at an
end. 'There was no demonstration
and no applause. Senators began
bidding their adieus.
The appearance of the chamber, the
evident weary look of worn-out senators,'was ’
that the end had come.

BATTLING AGAINST CAPITAL IN
THE PITTSBURG DISTRICT.
Tho Coal Operators Are Anxious to
Compromise.
A strike among the miners of the
Pittsburg, Pa., district iB on. As a re¬
sult of the action taken at a conven¬
tion, secret orders to suspend and re¬
main out for the 69 cent rate were sent
wherever the constituency could be
reached by wire. The action was un¬
expected and bears out the threat of
the district officials that the operators
would not have twenty-four hours’ no¬
tice in which to prepare for the sus¬
pension. Ten thousand men are af¬
fected. W’hen the convention adjourn¬
ed every delegate having telegraphic
communication with his constituency
wired home that the strike was on.
is stated that not another ounce of
coal will be mined iu tho communities
notified until the 69 cents is restored.
The plan was laid in convention to no¬
tify or confer with the association cf
operators. The demand for an im¬
mediate strike was so strong that it
was ordered, and all other matters
pertaining to it were lost sight of.
LATER ADVICES.
A special under date of Alarch 7th
from Pittsburg says: The strike of
the miners of tho Pittsburg district is
on in full force, and it is expected to
see a general suspension of work.
There are three companies whose
miues it is thought will stay at work
and the men employed in these mines
aggregate less than one thousand.
At the Alonongahela mines, near
Alonongahela City, Wednesday night,
tho men held a meeting, and after
completing the loading of a barge at
tl'.A request of the_sn^\«tendent, quit
work. __
All the miners of the fourth pool are
expected to come out. There is a good
boating stage, and the operators are
desirous of continuing work. Some
of them have proposed compromises,
but in each ease the scales have been
rejected with the demand for the rates
decided upon by the convention.
WORK GENERALLY SUSPENDED.
Latest reports received at the
miners’headquarters in Pittsburg show
a general suspension of work through¬
out the district. From the report of
the commissioner of labor, showing
the number of miners employed in the
district, it is estimated that the nurn
ber who are on strike is over 21,000,
and that the number employed at
mines where there will be no strike is
about 1,300.
The men are determined to win,
although each one will have to rely on
his own resources for support during
the suspension, as the organization has
not the funds to pay the strike bene¬
fits.
EXPLOSION OF NATURAL GAS.
A Business Block, at Anderson, Ill.,
Blown Into Smithereens.
The most destructive natural gas
explosion in the history of the Indiana
gas belt occurred at Anderson early
Tuesday morning. A $75,000 busi¬
ness block on the courthouse square
was blown all over the central part of
the city. In the building were a num¬
ber of stores and business offices. Fire
followed the explosion, which was like
an earthquake, and the remains of the
debris began burning fiercely. Attor¬
ney Ballard and County Commissioner
Aletcalf lived in the rooms above and
it is feared they have perished. The
loss on the building and contents is
total and will reach $400,000. The
fronts of all business houses in the
neighborhood of the explosion were
demolished, paved streets ripped open
and telephone cables torn down.
UTAH’S STATEHOOD.
The Constitutional Convention Elects
Permanent Officers.
The constitutional convention in
session at Salt Lake, Utah, elected
permanent officers, with John Henry
Smith at their head, as agreed on by
the republican caucus. The democrats
made no nominations and the election
of officers was mostly by acclamation.
The following resolution was adopted:
“Resolved, That we, delegates of
the constitutional convention, for and
in behalf of the people of the pre
posed state of I tah, do hereby declare
that we adopt the constitution of the
United States.”

RATE CUTTING INAUGURATED
-
th « Seaboard Air-Line as a Result
of the Boycott.
sweeping reduction in rates to
eastern points made by the Seaboard
Adr-Line and the Southern Railway
knd Steamehip Association set forth in
the following circular is causing some
thing of a sensation.
T he circular is from the general
passenger agent and addressed to the
^ oca * passenger agents. It reads:
“Norfolk, March 5, 1895.—Begin
ning this date, the Seaboard Air Line
takes pleasure in announcing to their
patrons throughout the south possibly
the lowest rates ever offered to eastern
cities. Following are rateB to princi
pal points. Atlanta to Richmond,
19.80; Petersburg, $9.15; Portsmouth
and Norfolk, $8; Washington, via
Portsmouth, $9.50; Baltimore, $10;
Philadelphia, $11.80; New York, $14;
Boston, $19.75.
“Approved. T. J. Anderson,
“General Passenger Agent.
“E. St. John, Vice President.”
This is the first step in the fight
against the boycott and the Seaboard
people say they will fight it out on
this line if it takes all summer.
Southern railway people, however,
take a very philosophical view of the
situation and say in regard thereto:
“The Southern will maintain its
present rates between Atlanta and the
east. Theso rates are upon as low a basis
per mile as any in the United States
and the service furnished by the South¬
ern is not surpassed even by the famous
‘Limited’ between Chicago and New
York. It is understood that the Sea¬
board Air Line’s rates are a combina¬
tion of rail and water, and tho uncer¬
tainty of boat connections must neces¬
sarily enter into consideration, also
the quickest time furnished—making
direct connection with the steamer—is
forty-eight hours to New York. If
the Seaboard persists in this fight it
will have had considerable experience
before it is through with us.”
SPINNERS AND CARDERS
At Fall River Combine and Will Cre¬
ate a Striking Fund.
The Mule Spinners’ Association at
Fall River, Mass., has v ted to affiliate
with the carders’ unit,a and the new
move opened up a nq v era in trades
unionism in that city.) The spinners’
union has not been gftning in mem¬
bership for some tine through the
supplanting of mules !>y ring frames,
but its large fund ho • been reserved
and it still retains a d ruinating influ
e nce in the matter o i n the £o t
ton trade. The preeFnt carders’ union
has been growing powerful under con¬
servative leadership, and its member¬
ship has been increasing steadily. The
affiliation of these two bodies strength¬
ens the hands of the operatives by
combining a greater number of skilled
employes. The basis of affiliation is
the creation of a common fund from
which members of the union will be
paid during a strike or lockout. The
membership of the spinners’ union is
about 750 and that of the carders’
about 1,400.
_
ALABAMA COTTON GROWERS
Meet and Take Action Regarding Re¬
duced Acreage.
A convention of representative Ala¬
bama cotton growers was held at Bir¬
mingham to take action on the plan
recommended by the American Cotton
Growers’ Association, held recently in
Jackson, Miss., to reduce the acreage
of this year’s crop as the only remedy
to raise the price of the staple, de¬
cided to cut down the year’s produc¬
tion by 50 per cent. The decision be¬
comes operative provided three-fourths
of the cotton growers of the south
agree to it. The 50 per cent, idea has
become general throughout the south,
associations for the purpose having
been formed in every county seat, and
there appears to be little doubt that
the necessary number will sign.

disposed of all his interest in his moth¬

to his sisters, Mrs. Oelrichs and Miss
Virginia Fair. In exchange for his
surrender he received $500,000 in cash
and securities and satisfactory cove¬
nants from his two sisters for a simi¬
lar amount, payable in April, 1897.
The first half million was paid in
$100,000 cash and the balance in gilt
edged securities, It was after this
agreement had been reached that Fair’s
attorneys dismissed the suit which tied
up his mother’s estate.
BANK ROBBERS FOILED.
One is Killed and the Other Captured.
The Cashier Wounded.
Adel, the county seat of Dallas coun¬
ty, Iowa, twenty-two miles from Des
Moines, was the scene of a bold bank
robbery Wednesday morning, followed
by the pursuit of the ameteur bandits,
the killing of one, the capture of the
other, and the formation of an angry
mob about the county jail threatening
to have the life of the living robber.
The funds of the bank were saved by
the presence of mind of the cashier,
who, after receiving a load of lead in
his body, swung shut the door to the
vault and turned the combination.
Srike at Trenton, N. J.
Over three-fourths of the 700 em¬
ployes in the woolen Mills of Samuel
K. Wilson, at Trenton, N. J., have
quit work because their employer had
not restored the second 10 per cent re¬
duction to which they were subjected
last summer. The striking employes
declare that they were promised the
restoration would take effect the first

Would Not Take $1,000 for it—Re*
lieved of Fifteen Years of Suf¬
fering from Dyspepsia.
Alapaha, Oh., June 22.— B. B. B. Com¬
pany,, Atlanta, Ga.—Gentlemen: 1 had
suffered from that terrible dyspepsia, for
over fifteen years, and during that tima
tried everything I could hear of, and spent
over three hundred dollars in doctor’s bills
without receiving the slightest benefit.
Indeed I continued to grow worse. Final¬
ly, after I despaired of obtaining relief, a
friend recommended B. B. B. (Botanio
Blood Balm), and I began using it; not
however expecting tobebenefitted. After
using half a bottle I was satisfied I was
being banefitted, and when the sixth bottla
was taken I te)t like a new man, I would
not tako a thousand dollars for the good it
has done me; in fact the relief I derived
from it is priceless. I firmly believe L
would have died had I not taken it.
.Respectfully, etc.,
Thomas Paulk.
