THE FCR ANTON TlttBTTNE-MONDAY MORNING. JANUARY 1 4, 1895. MMIE F0RIBEW1EI Business That Will lie Considered at Sessions of Congress. SENATE FAVORS INCOME TAX Republicans Have Dccldod to Largely Support tlio Mcusuro Mearauguun Cauul Hill Drags-Bogus Butter Will Cause Trouble In the House. By the United Press. Washlnirtan, Jan. 13. It is confident ly expected that the urgent deficiency bill will be out of the Way before the end of ibhe week that opens in congress tomorrow. There -will be a number of speeches on the income tax from vari ous Republicans, but there will be no effort at undue delay nor will ithe Re publicans countenance filibustering. Despite the opposition of Mr. Quay, wiiidh has necessitated several roll - calls, and ithc llht tlhalt Mr. Hill is mak ing, as soon as the Republicans have made the speeches arranged for they will have a vote on the bill and will largely support the appropriation. Sir. Cockrell expects to see the vote taken by WdmeMday and says the bill will haveatileurit fifty votes out of the total voto of eilghlty-llve as the senate now 1 Btamds. The Nlcaraguan canal bill Is still the unfinished busLness. The pension, mili tary academy and fortification appro priation bills have all been reported to the senaite and Mr. Cockrell expects to call them up aa fust as possible. The canal bill, while retaining Its right of way, will probably yield to the appro priation bills When they are called up. The 'Interest In the senate this week will center about the room of the finance committee rather than upon the pro ceedings of the Moor with one exception, Mr. Uorman'a promised speech on the financial question, which was to ihave been delivered on Saturday, but will probably come oft .tomorrow. The Bogus Butter M ar. In the house during the first morning hour devoted to committee business the Ciout bill to make oleomargarine, butterlne and other substitutes for and initiations of dairy products subject to the laws of the state Into which they may be transported will come up and Inevitably precipitate a parliamentary contest. There remains but one hour for its consideration under present call of committees, and opponents of the bill profess their ability to prevent Its passage within that period. Should the Mil fail to reach a final vote at this stage, Mr. Hatch will doubtless appeal to the committee on rules for a special assignment. There Is already a tremendous pres sure being brought to bear upon the committee on rules for orders for the disposition of bills. Requests have been preferred on behalf of enough measures to take up all the remaining time of the session, save that which will be required for disposing of the ap propriations bills and. the bills called up In morning hour by the' several committees. Among these measures which, ac cording to a member of the commit tee on rules, are likely to become the subject of favorable action of the com mittee on rules are the bills to provide payment of the French spoliation claims; to provide for the re-adjustment and refunding of the Pacific rail road Indebtedness; to erect public build ings In accordance with the recom mendations of the committee on build ings and grounds; to provide for the more speedy settlement of claims aris ing under the Howman act; the free ship bills and the bill providing for the re-classification and re-arranslng the salaries of postal clerks. THE STARVING MIXERS. Destitution That Exists In the Hocking Valley Declared to Be a Blot I pon the State of Ohio. By the United Press. Columbus, O., Jan. 13. A gentleman who resides In the Hocking valley and Is pretty familiar with the condition of the miners there, was here today. He says the miners have been In destitute circumstances for some time and that the matter was reported to the officials of the United Mine Work ers, but '(hey practically Ignored the matter, probably because they did not comprehend the real truth. When they failed to itake action, the miners themsnlves Appointed commit tees, who for 'the .last two months have been going quietly about the country soliciting a!id, which they claimed was for Hoekling Valley railroad men who lost their situations by reason of the strike on that road last summer. This, the genitli-man claimed, was done In order that the public might not know thait the miners were In Impover ished circumstances. The gentleman said ihe ihad heard ft charged that the United Mine Workers of illllnols 'had advised that tlhe maDter bo kept from the public, but he doubted the truth of 'this. So far as known they have not at tempted to do anything for the benefit of the sufferers. He further says the destitution In the Sunday, Creek val ley completely overshadows that In the Hocking valley or In aind about Nel Bonvllle, where the first appeal came from. He 'thinks the destitute there tvHl "have ito be oared for till spring at iaast. A newspaper man, who has just ar, rived from the scene, says the desti tution Is widespread, and that no writer could draw a picture horrible enough to do the. matter Justice. He says It Is impossible to conceive how such condi tions could exist In a civilized coun try, and that It is a disgrace to the state of Ohio, which will not soon lie blotted out. The well-to-do citizens In the Impov- HIGHEST eiished district charge that much of the suffering there can be traced to the drinking habit. They suy many of the miners in prosperous times seem to have no other desire than to enrich the salooon-keepers, and make no attempt to prepare for adversity. The .better class of miners admit this Is true in a great many Instances1, but the wives and children of such men who .re the real sufferers now are not reporuslble for this condition. But while these charges are made, those making them proclaim 'that this is not a time to Inquire after cuuse. The ef fect alone must be considered. AFFAIRS AT HOXOLILI. Gcorgo Young Says That There Aro I n mlstukable Evidences of a Revolt In the llawullan Islands. Cy the United Press. San Frauolsco, Jan. 13. Oeorge H. Young, who arrived here on the steamer Australia from Honolulu with F. M. Hatch, minister of foreign affairs of Hawaii, says It was generally under stood among the padsevigerg that Mr. Hatch's mission concerning the cable was merely a blind. The real purpose was to convey to Minister Thurston, at Washington some Important dis patches that the ministry was afradd to trust to ithe mall. There are unmistak able evidences, says Mr. Young, of an Impending-revolt In the Islands, and the provisional government Is seriously alarmed. It is believed the dispatches to Thurston are iln the nature of a re quest tlhat a United Staites war vessel by sent to Honolulu Immediately. Mr. Hatch, in an Interview today, states that the object of his visit Is to see whult aid the American government will give in laying a cubic between Honolulu and San Francisco. He thought the conspiracy recently discov ered amounted to nodhing and, al though there tire now no war vessels at the islands, he did not fear a rising. READY FOR INAUGURATION. 1 innl Orders for Ceremony and Parade. Have Been Issued. Hartisburg, Pa., Jan. 13. There Is nothing nowl to be done save wait for pleasant weather to Inaugurate Oover-nor-elect Hastings. The joint commit tee of the legislature In charge of the Inaugural arrangements and the chief marshal have issued the final orders for the ceremonies and the parade. General Hastings spent the day quiet ly at the relsdenee of Mrs. Richard J. Hnldeman, attending the Pine Street Presbyterian church this morning with Mrs. Hastings. At 1.20 tomorrow they will be the guests or Governor and Mrs. will be the guests of Governor and Miss Pattison at the executive mansion. The Inaugural ceremonies will take place at the capltol at 12 Tuesday. Chief Jus tice Sterrett will administer the oath and Rev. Mr. Houek, bf Hazleton, will make the prayer. The Inaugural ad dress will be comparatively brief. From 6 to 8 the Governor and Mrs. Hastings will give a dinner to the mem bers of the cabinet and their wives, who will assist In receiving at the pub lic reception in the evening. INDUSTRIAL TOPICS. The anthracite coal sub-committee Is preparing data which embraces the working days of the different collieries and the coal mined for several years past, and is making good progress, all difficulties considered. The great Brooks Locomotive works of Dunkirk, X. Y., have sold about $1,000,000 worth of locomotives to the Kstrata Ferro Central Railroad com pany, of Brazil, running out from Rio. The order covers sixty locomotives, of which sixteen have already been shipped. Slope No. 14, of the Lehigh and Wilkes-Barre Coal company, has a brigrhit future before it. Although ISO tons per day is now its output. It will be (increased to four times this amount wDthin six months. The slope 'is at present 373 feet deep and after the work men (have cut through a pillar in which fthey are blasting at present. Contrac tor Hughes will put to work a large force of rockmen to continue the slope into the Buck Mountain vein. It is suggested by several persons In the anthracite coal trade, says the W'Hkes-Parre Record, that there might be a rtlturn of good rtimes for them, it A. A. McLeod were put In charge of the mining and selling. While a great many persons found fault with some of his methods, they admit that there was never a time wihen they fared so well in regard to She price obtained, as dur ing his manag.Mnr-nt. The committee of three to adjust line tonnages Is all very well, ithey say, but what U needed Is a higher price for the commodity and ho Is tihe only man who has given a high price In recent years. Jt Is suggested ffiiat they could afford to pay him an annual salary many times that of the presldont of the United States. Engineering and. Mining Journal: "Just n.w there seems to be an epi demic of good sense raging among an thrnclte coal producers. The market, though dull, Is firm. Everybody is re striding and shipments during the week ending Jan. S amounted to only M5,fii4 tons. Producers tare apparently in the pro'per mood for adopting and maintaining any sensible, practicable scheme. We Te loath to believe that this may prove to be only the calm that precedes u storm. The Pennsylvania Rajfroad compa.ny has ihad a represen tative at the luct two meetings, and Mr. Roberts, we understand, shows more dlspiwltton to. be governed by the actions of his competitors, although his company's attitude may continue Inde pendent. The Pennsylvania is noting much like the other companies In the matter of reaMctlon amd prices Just now." And this means a good deal to the coal trade. fThcro is nothing like Dr. Thomas' Eo lcctrlc Oil to quickly cure a cold or relievo hoarseness. Written by Mrs. M. J.

Pittston, Pn.. Jan. IX Re-orga nize the old board of trade. That sounds well and Is well Let no time be lost In getting together tho citizens of this city and organize or rather re-organize a board of trade. We have facilities which many manu facturing towns, both east and west, would be proud to claim as theirs. We have the advantage of the abundance and cheapness of fuel, which Is a great Item In the manufacture of all classes of goods. Our fuel, in comparison with that used In other statesfis of double value as it will generate more steam per ton, and the cost here per ton Is nearly the same as that of the bituminous coal after the expense of transportation has. been added. Be sides, It is free from smoke, or nearly so, which is another advantage for manufacturing purposes over the soft coal. Our facilities of transportation are numbered among tho best, extend ing north, south, cast and west; from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and from the northern border to the Gulf. It would give employment to the many Idlers about our streets, and encourage ment and cheerfulness in our homes. It would bring about a weekly pay sys tem and aid In the disposition of our dreaded credit system. The young America of West IMtUton are of the ingenious and progressive or der. As the snow was fast disappear ing from the streets, some few days sinoe, taking with It that ever-enjoyed sport of youth, coasting, the people's attention was attracted by a very' un usual spectacle, the Inventor and pro moter of which will, in all probability, if he follows out the course already pursued, become president of the United States, ambassador to England, representative at Hawaii, burgess of his native town, or some other Import ant office where Ingenuity, pluck and brains are required. Mounted on the back of one of man ever-faithful friends, a horse of innumerable years, was this embodiment of Ingenuity. Three ordinary hand sleds, on which were five or six boys of the neighbor hood, were attached in succession to this motive power of the quadrapedal order. By the shouts and gesticula tions all were hugely enjoying the sit uation, even to the old horse, which with head and tall erect galloped off up Wyoming avenue. The delegates for the Republican con vention on the West Side this evening are as follows: First district, J. H. Bryden, J. W. Kaper, Dr. E. B. Long, and T. W. Kyte; Second district, W. L.

(ACTION TO our patrons: Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many paN rons tluit they will this year hold to their usual custom of milling S'l RICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and owing to the excessively dry weather many millers ara of the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take no risks, and Mill allow the new wheat fully three months to mature before grinding. This careful attention to every detail of milling haa placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other brands. e MM r4 MEGARGEL Wholesale Agents.
