AGAIN niQUTlNQ THE OLD WAR
Tliu J.ovvor llouso of Congress Is
Trcntctl to n Hull-Hour of liner
KCtio Flapdoodle!, Apropos of Nothing--Very
titttlu Hone in the Sonntu.
"Washington, Jnn. 28. Several Inter
estlug uiid nt times liumorous nml ncrl
luonlous political speeches wore unex
pectedly precipitated upon tho house
today Just nt the close of an otherwise
prosy and dull session, during which
the consideration of the Indian appro
priation hill, begun on Mondny last,
Was concluded and the bill passed with
some material changes, nil reducing tho
scope of the measure.
Mr. Vv'ndswoith, of New York, had,
called up the bill making appropria
tions for the agricultural department
for the year 1S97-DS und following Mr.
Shenimn'H course in the management
of the Indian bill, yielded the floor to
Mr. Cirosvenor, of Ohio. That gentle
man used the opportunity thus accord
ed him to defend the state of Ohio from
what he termed the fnlse charges of
ex-Governor Altgeld made in the lat
ter's speech at the banquet given him
last week to mark the close of his
gubernntorlnl term. These remarks
related to the great Increase In the
votes of several states, at the Novem
ber election, Ohio being one, which
Altgeld snid was largely fraudulent
and which had defrauded Mr. Hrynn of
a victory which he had fairly won.
NO TAINT OF FRAUD.
Mr. Orosvenor said the Inerense -was
both in tho Republican and Democratic
vote, and had no taint of fraud in It.
Mr. Orosvenor was followed in the
same lino by Mr. Hrownell, of Ohio, and
then Mr. Dearmond, Missouri, took the
floor. After briefly ndwrtlng to ex
novernor Altgeld'.s charges, he read
from newspaper publications shortly
after the election to show that there
wns some ground for them, so far as
Ohio was concerned. He Intimated
that Altgeld would soon have the privi
lege of replying to the speeches of the
Athenian representative (Mr. Orosven
or) on the floor. He turned his atten
tion to Secretary Morton, using as a
"basis for ills reninrks the recent bulle
tin Issued by the agricultural depart
ment showing the illiteracy nml pov
erty of the states which voted for Mr.
Hrynn as compared with those of the
McKlnley states and denounced it as
a slander upon the men whom the de
partment of agilculture was supposed
to particularly represent. He appealed
to the Republicans to find a place for
the secretary in tho museum as a curi
osity of modern life and administration.
In conclusion, he parodied Gray's lines:
Full many a whim of purest ray serene,
The dark, unfathomed dreams of .Morton
bear;
Full many a wheel Is formed to whir un
seen And waste Its lleetness 'neath J. Ster
ling's hair.
This being ended, the committee rose
and at 5.10 o'clock the house adjourned.
IN THE SENATE.
Tho proposed sale of the property of
the Union Pacific railroad, under fore
closure proceedings instituted by the
attorney general, is sought to be im
peded nnd prevented by a resolution of
fered in tile senate today by Mr. Al
len, of Nebraska. It Instructs the 'Pa
cific railroad committee to Inquire and
report whether, under existing law, the
executive department has the author
ity to foreclose the lien and to sell the
property without additional legislation
and whether It Is not the' duty of the
president to redeem and pay off the
paramount liens and take possession of
the property, and it directs the attorney
general to refrain from entering into
further stipulations or agreements
pending the inquiry. The resolution
went over without action, Mr. Thurs
ton, or Nebraska, stating his desire to
fipeak upon It tomorrow.
MONETARY TALK.
The bill for a commission t'o an in
ternational monetary conference was
taken up and Mr. Chandler, of New
Hampshire, made a short statement in
favor of it. He said that It did not
compel the president to initiate the
conference and Hint compulsion was
not desirable. He did not wish to take
from the president-elect his responsi
bility for action or non-action In view
of McKlnley's letter of acceptance, stat
ing that the Republican party had de
clared in favor of an International
agreement and that it would be his
duty it elected to employ all proper
means to promote it. He subsequently,
however, accepted an amendment of
fered by Mr. Bacon, of Georgia, giving
the president authority specifically to
call an international conference at
such point as may lie agreed upon.
All the rest of the time that was loft
of the morning hour, to which tho con
sideration of the bill was limited, was
occupied by Mr. Stewart, of Nevada, in
a speech recouutlnir the ills Inflicted
upon the poor by the gold standard, but
declared in the end that he would al
low the bill to pass in any form that Its
friends desired. Notice of a desire to
speak on the measure was given by Mr.
Pettlgrew, of South Dakota, and then
the bill went over, Mr. Chnndler stating
that he would ask the senate to vote on
it tomorrow.

an hour tho senates this moiiilng Uls
cursed in executive .session the nomi
nation of "William S. Fonnnn, of Illi
nois, to be commissioner of Internal
revenue, nml dually confirmed him by
a vote of 41 to 15.
The opposition was based almost en
tirely upon Mr. Forman's conduct in
thu recent campaign. Senator Jones
cald he opposed thu candidacy of Jlr.
Format! with much reluctance, but he
could not permit hiB nttuchs upon tho
regular ticket of tho Democratic party
tn pass unheeded, especially as they
were brought to tho attention of thu
country by tho appointment to such
an Important position of tho man who
had made them, Hemarks along simi
lar lines were made by Senators Herry
and Stewart. Mr. Chandler antagon
ized tho nomination because tho nomi
nee .was a Democrat, who Btood on u
platform declaring for the single gold
standard and free trade.
The roll call showed that silver Dem
ocrats, the silver bnltinE IU'pnlilleans
and the Holltury vote of Mr, Chandler
Uiiiued the voting opposition. '

Next Week's ProgrammeGrand Jury
Recommends a Memorial Sliafl.
Special to tho Scrantou Tribune.
Tunkhnnnock, Pa., Jan. 28. Tho
Ames damage case Is still occupying
the attention of the court nnd will In
all probability continue throughout the
week. The next case on the docket Is
that of Addison E. Mowry, of Meshop
pen, and Walden Sprout & Co. Mr.
Mowrv erected a grist mill at Meshop-
pen some time ago and purchnsed his
machinery from Wnldon & Co., who
guaranteed it to do certain work. Mow
ry clnlms that tho machinery did not
come up to tho standard. Hence the
suit.
Criminal court was held last week
and the sentences imposed weio as fol
lows: Abo Rosongrnnt to pay $." fine,
undergo an Imprisonment of six mouths
in the county Jail nnd restore the stolen
property. It will bo remembered that
during the county fair last September
Rosengrant, In company with Claude
Dickinson, went to a farm house near
East Lemon and stole a gold watch
while the family wore in Tunkhnnnock.
Both were tried at tho November term
of court. Dickinson was sent to the
Huntingdon reformatory. Rosengrant
was found guilty and about tho time
Judge Dunham wns preparing to read
his sentence Abraham walked quietly
out of the court room. He wandered
around in the vicinity of Scranton for 1
some time and was finally captured by
Sheriff Knapp near Luzerne.
Henry Waterman, of Nicholson, was
fined $30 and sentenced to undergo nti
imprisonment of thirty days in tho
county jail. Waterman hit a woman
on the head. He Is a son of the lato
Washington Waterman, who wns killed
near the Gearhart coal chutes a feu
years ago.
True bills were found against Stark
and Gormnn by the grand Jury. These
are the two young gentlemen who broke
into the Evangelical church nt Hard
well and damaged the furniture. They
are still at large, but It is expected
that they will be captured before long.
The grand jury also reported In favor
of a soldiers' and sailors' monument
to be erected on court house square.
This will again go before the next
grand jury and If they decided favor
ably It will then go to the county com
missioners. INSANE HAN HEIR TO MILLIONS.

YOUNG ITALIAN MURDERED.
To One Shocking Crime Is Virtually
Added Assassination.
Philadelphia, Jan. 28. It developed
today that tho 1-year-old lnd, Moros
tlno Mofll, whoso body wns found In nn
alloy yesterday froaen stllT, was the
victim of an unnatural ussnult at tho
hands of Fnsquall D'Addroo, who Is In
Jail on the charge of murdering the
boy.
Tho nccused, nHer taking the child
from Its homo on Monday night, os
tensibly to buy candy, committed a
foul crime In a vacant house next door
to tho Mofll residence, choked the boy
to death and then threw the body from
the roof to an alleyway. D'Addreo was
already In Jail l'or abducting the lud
when the body was found, and the
chnrge against him was changed to
murder.
MARKETS AND STOCKS.
It nil Kticct i!tvit'v.
Now York. Jan. 23. Speculation wns ex
tremcly dull again today at the Stock Ex
change and In a majority or instances the
fluctuations were trilling. The tiansactlons
nggiegated only 87,500 shares. Prices
yielded Ha's per cent., but the losses were
soon recovered, only to be followed by an
other decline which left the leading stocks
fractionally below last night. Hocking
Valley advanced nearly two points on the
announcement that the company had
provided for tho February Interest and
that tho bituminous coal roads had set
tled their troubles. Manhattan was sold
down 1" on a vnguo rumor that the com
pany had decided upon a new Issue of
bonds, but there was a partial recovery
on the denial of the story. Lake Shore lot
a point. Lackawanna rose lVi and later
lost It. Speculation closed rather weak In
tone owing chiefly to tho nppearanc" or
selling orders In Sugar, which carried thai
stock down to llfiljj.

THE MUSLIN
ycwrsi
IS IN FULL SWING.
A few pertinent remarks in connection with this display and sale: There is a price
point below which quality cannot exist. With all the economy of close buying, close fig
uring, and modern methods of manufacture, there, are certain items of cost which cannot
be eliminated.
LOOK OUT FOR TRASH. --When you see Corset Covers advertised for 7c. or
9c. be assured it is trash.
The Muslin Underwear on sale here at our special prices, is worthy of more than
the usual amount of attention. Firm, evenly woven muslins of good weight; sewing that
shows the hand of skilled work people; no missed stitches or uneven seams, good lengths,
correct widths, generous hems and new trimmings. All this in our Muslin' Uuderweai1
that comes to you with a modest margin of profit added for the maker and tis.
Fair Prices in Every Sense.
Our Cloak Room is the scene of this display, and we ask you to come and look
over the lines of
IOT Mm SKIRTS, CORSET COVERS, DRAWERS.
