Owing to the increase of sickness,
thought tp be due to impure food and
poisonous liquors, the Municipal Council
of Lima (Peru) ordered an analysis to be
made of 245 different articles purchased
from almost as many stores. The result
showed that 86 were counterfeits and 12
were dangerous to health, 24 were adul
terated or were not what they were sold
for, 18 were decomposing or so changed
as to be unfit for consumption, 46 were
impure but not positively dangerous, 32
were imitations fairly passable, while
only 32 were really good.
The Chicago Ilcrahl makes the state
ment that in 1800 there was not a fac
tory child in all America. In 18G0 ne
cessity had dragged 114.000 children out
of the schools and for no crime but pov
erty sentenced them to such lives of un
derpay and overwork as the ignorant
must lead among the better educated.
In 1880, 182,000 were sacrificed to the
modern Moloch. At the same ratio,
1890 will show an army twice as great
as the population of Delaware, 290,000
children educated in the school of the
factory, brutified by the bosses, demor
alized by incessant labor and contami
nated by association without moral re
straint!

on privileges and elections, instructing
that the committee inquire into all the
facts of the senatorial election, and to
ascertain and report whether or not, at
the iccent state election in Louisiana,
which included the election of a state
legislature, and inquire and report
whether the legislature was actually and
duly elected by the people of Louisiana,
or was, in fact, solely the creation of the
returning and canvassing officers, and
whether the state of Louisiana had, on
the 22d of May, 1888, (the day of Senator
Gibson’s election), a republican form of
government, including a legislature, enti
tled to choose a United States Senator. ’.
The House spent two hours and a half,
discussing the resolution reported from
the committee on postoflices and post
roads, calling on the postmaster-general
for a tabulated st tement of disallowed
postmaster claims presented from the
state of Kentucky. The contested elec
tion cases of Frank vs. Glover, of Mis

the House: By Mr. Dougherty, of
Florida, a resolution rteiting that
at this time there stems to be
co probability of the passage, at this
session of Congress, of the Mills bill,
that there is a large surplus in the treas
ury which is daily accumulating, to the
detriment of general business, and which
tends to the eoutractioiJkf the circulat
ing medium of the couiffr; that the un
ceitainty as to whether the Mills bill,
in its present shape, will ever become a
law, almost certainly not in time to give
the relief demanded, and that the late
unfortunate and unnecessary civil War
made an enormous aud daily increasing
pension list just and necessary; that the
success of the army of the United States,
made possible and secure the accumula
tion of large private and corporate for
tunes all over the country, and instruct
ing the committee on ways and means to
report the House bills: 1. Repealing all
laws providing for internal revenue tax
ation, and removing all of the said tax
except that now collected on spirits dis

said income tax to be devoted exclusive
ly to the payment of pensions. 0. Pro
viding that all articles or products not
manufactured or produced iu the United
States shall enter ports of the United
States free of all import duty. Mr
Grosvenor took the floor upon this bill
and made good his threat of a few min
utes previous to get h : s preamble into
the Record in the shape of a speech.

which ignored entirely the business be
fore the House for the greater part of
day. During its progress a colloquy
arose between Messrs. Woodburn, of
Neyadn, and C x, of New York, turning
upon the reference by Mr. Cox in his
tariff speech to Nevada as a rotten bor
rough. Mr. Woodburn defended his
state and was bitterly personal in his at
tack upon Mr. Cox, but the latter gen
tleman replied in a more good-natured
manner, although he also indulged in
some biting persona! remarks. Finally
the House got back to District of Co
lumbia business and passed a num
ber of bills, local to the district.
Judge Stewart, of Georgia, introduced
a bill to pay S7OO to Henry Clay, of

claims; but will not favorably affect the

BOLD TRANSACTION.
American Express Messen
ger Z mmenn in an I Baggage Mas
ter Joe Ketchum were alone together in
the express and baggage car of the Cin
cinnati, Indianapolis, St. Louis and t hi
cago Railway train, which is due at Cin-
Ohio, at 11 o'clock. Zimmer
man, when the train led Delhi, a station
twelve miles west of th-re, called Ketch
uni’s attention to some tramps that he
saw through the glass of the car door
leading to the front platform next to the
locomotive’s tender. Both men arose and
went toward the front door. When
within ten feet of it the tramps began
firing through the glass window.
Ketchum fell, shot in four places. Two
balls entered his abdomen, one in his breast
and one in his left shoulder. Zimmerman
tried to draw his pistol, but it stuck in
his hip pocket and he retreated to the
rear platform of the car, where he met
the conductor. The latter pulled the
bell rope and stopped the train.
While this was going on one of the
tramps climbed on the tender, where he
was met by the engineer and fireman and
knocked stiff by two blows from a monk
ey-wrench. The engineer and fireman
then rolled him off the tender, while the
train was at full speed. Before he was
thrown overboard, however, a second
robber attempted to climb on the tender,
but he weakened and dodged back at the
sight of the prostrate form of his com
panion. The robbers ran away, but
were captured in Kentucky.
DEVASTATING STORMS.
Dispatches to Chicago, 111., from the :
Michigan peninsula, report Saturday’s j
rain storm to have been iu the nature oi |
a flood from the heavens. The Calumet j
and Hecla mine was nearly drowned out.
The whole country was covered with
water and every railroad on the penin
sula suffered from washouts and lost
bridges. The storm also did some good.
It extinguished a fire that was destroying
the town of Norway, before the town ,
was quite swept out of existence. As it 1
xvas, forty-seven buildings were de
stroyed. . . .A waterspout burst out over
the district of Armtiz, L.dian Territory,
flooding the entiie section. All the
bridges on Big and Little Cabin Rivers
were washed away. The Missouri, Kan
sas and Texas Road loses three wooden
bridges and one iron bridge, also several
miles of track near Blue Jacket station.
....Red Lake River, Minn., touched
eighteen feet above low winter mark, and
is at the top of the bridge. Some six
ty-live families have had to leave their
homes, some losing all their effects. At
Cloquet the St. Louis River is still ris
ing. The bridge between Junction and
Tliomaston was swept away, and a big
log boom is in great danger.

paths will lie north of or along the for
tieth parallel, and the principal disturb
ances will cross the Mississippi valley
from the 20th to the 22d and from the
26th to the 28th. A storm will cross the

Eastern states about the 17th.
