Sherman Men Trap Them Into Making a Questionable Becord by VOTING DOWN A POPULAR BILL. The Kilkenny Contest Among Ohio Sepnb licans Still Goes On. FABDON FOR THE BEATER EDITORS TtTTClAX. TELBGBAJC TO THE DKrATCIM Columbus, March 22. The time in both branches of the legislature was taken up to-day in consideration of measures for the reorganization of Columbus. The point of interest-vras that the Senatorial lines -were closely drawn in the House and a bill de feated which proposed a division of the city into five districts for the election of a Board of Control. The measure would have given four Republican members and one Demo crat, but this was not satisfactory to the Foraker faction in the city and State, and they defeated the bill, voting against it with two exceptions. The Sherman men have placed them in the position which they desired, and that is the responsibility of having defeated the measure. The Foraker men had an arrangement by which the Probate Judge, who is a Foraker man, could appoint a board which would at once give them the control of the city and its public works. They had gone so far as to have picked out the members of the new board, three of whom have scarcely gained a residence in the city and who came here from Cleveland, Athens and Login. They are men whom the people do not know and who would have no chance at a popular election, such as that proposed in the bill, which they defeated in the House. The defeat of the bill was accomplished by having a bill introduced in the Senate earlier in the aay, giving the Probate Judge power to appoint. When the meas ure came up in the House the Foraker lob by. Including some of the Senate members, rushed into the House and announced to members that a compromise bill had been agreed upon by the two factions, and if they would kill the House bill, that in the Senate would be passed at once. By this means several votes were secured against the House bill, which otherwise would not have gone that way. The result of the day's work is that the city, which was orerrymandered and reor ganized by the Democrats two year ago, will remain in their control, and the Fora ker and Sherman factions will go on with their fight, which promises to be fruitful to the Democrats of the Stato in the coming election, both State and national. PASD0H F0S THE BEAV2B EDITORS. Counsel for Mellon and Porter.Plead Before the Pardon Board. Harrisburq, March 22. The first case heard by the Board of Pardons to-day was that of Editors Mellon and Porter, of the Beaver Star, serving a sir months' sentence in Jail for libelling Senator Quay. E. B. Dougherty, Louis W. Beed and Bobert Ritchie appeared for the prisoners and pleaded eloquently for their release. They claimed that the ends of Justice have been satisfied, the prisoners did not Intend any malice, and if they are compelled to serve out their sentence their health will be eeriouslr affeoted and their business ruined. It is stated that the Court itself had said that, had there been a retraction the sen tence would have been lighter, and that this was told one of the counsel for the convicted men, who did not tell ittohls fellow counsel, and, consequently, Mellon and Porter did not hear it. The letter of Judge Wickham askinsr clemency was read, and the Board took the papers. The Board of Pardons had an executive esiion to-night and announced decisions in several cases. Only one pardon was recom mendedin the cases of John A. Mellon and William H. Porter, the Beaver Star pub lishers. A Beer Seller's Costly mistake. New Castle, March 22.

FIBE 15 THE CAPII0L, Fifteen Thousand Dollars" Worth of Fob lie Documents Destroyed. "Washiptox, March 22. A fire occurred in the folding room of the House of repre sentatives about 7 o'clock this evening and destroyed a large number of public docu ments, mostly agricultural reports and me morial addresses, which had been prepared for mailing to different parts of the country. The fire department was promptly on hand, and soon had the fire under control. In accomplishing this the office and corridors, which were closely packed with documents, were flooded with water to the depth of sev eral inches and the dense smoke permeated the entire building, including the House of Representatives. It took some time to clear the hall of smoke sufficiently to allow the proceedings of the evening session of the House to begin. The origin of the fire is unknown, but is supposed to have resulted from the careless ness of an employe in neglecting to extin fuish a candle, or from a lighted cigar ropped on the floor among some loose pa pers by a visitor. The fire was discovered soon after it started, otherwise the remit might have been more serious. As it was considerable damage was done. The loss ii estimated at $15,000, confined almost exoln sively to public documents. The folding room is located in the east sub-basement of the House wing of the Capitol, and the stone floors and heavy brick walls only pre vented the flames from spreading to the richly furnished committee rooms on the floor above.

My appetite increased till It seemed that I could not get enough to eat. When I had taken three bottles I felt as well as ever, and I may say better than ever.
