Chnirmnn Wilson of tho Insurnnco Scnndnl Committee Ilns Called n Electing for Tuesday Scnntor Gobln Throntcns to Resign irom tho Commlttoc--I)r. Coryell's lioom Harrlsburg, May 23. Three reform measures are scheduled to become laws before tho closing of the coming1 week. They are the non-assessment, non-po-lltlcal Interference and poll tax bills. Special orders' have been made for them and they will be considered Tuesday on fcecond reading and Wednesday on third reading and final passage. There Is apparently no opposition to them and they are expected to go through with scarcely an objection. Tho Republi cans are pledged to their support and the Democrats are anxious that they shall become laws because they believe such legislation will be to the advan tage of their party. It is settled that Governor Hnstlngs will sign the bills ns soon as they reach him. They have gone through the senate, but they will have to be returned for concurrence in tho house amendments. The civil scrvlco bill will bo In shano to be re- RL Jjtforted out of the house Judiciary eom l TSjjnlttee In plenty of tlmo to be reached this session. None of the other so called reform bills are being pushed. The Spatz bill to reduce from tho as sessed valuation of property for tax ation' r'l bona fide Judgments and mortgage will probdbly not be heard of, again this session. It has been sent lack to the house Judiciary general committee for a hearing. The opposi tion to the measure is so great that its friends realize they cannot muster votes enough to pass it through the house, let alone in the senate. Chairman "Wilson, of the Insurance scandal investigating committee, has called a meeting for Tuesday. It will then be decided when the Kearlng of witnesses will begin. Senator Gobin, who threatens to resign from the com jnlttee bccauHe he was not chosen chairman, Is still confined to his home at Lebanon by illness. lie has notified lils friend here that he will not serve on the committee and that the affida vits which he has In his desk touching upon tho Inquiry, will be submitted to the senate. The oleo Investigating com mittee is scheduled to meet Monday evening. Chairman Hosack has en tered suit before a Harrlsburg alder man against Frank C. Reed, of Pltts liurg, for contempt In refusing to ap i."ar before the committee. The Mackey bill to allow street rail ways to carry freight and merchandise is on the house calendar for second reading and will be called up Monday night. Even if it should go through this stage It will hnrdly be reached on third reading. The Young bill, giv ing trolley companies the right of em inent domain has been advanced to third reading. It has been so loaded down with amendments that its friends ore indifferent as to whether it be comes a law or not. Tho Pittsburg "Ripper" bill will be reached Tuesday in the house. It Is on third reading, and It reports are true will bo dropped from the calendar on motion of Its former friends. The Rodgers bill, which puts Pittsburg In the same class as Philadelphia will bo reached Monday night on second reading and will probably be indef initely postponed. NIGHT SESSIONS.

The house rules committee will most Mondny night to map out a programme for tho week. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday will be given up almost en tirely to the consideration of the thir teen bills for which special orders have? been made. The commlttco has not yet made provlblon to droo bills from the calendar. Many of th'o measures will be stricken off. however, later in tho tesslon so that the appropriation bills may be considered.

A conference of Governor Hastings, heads of departments and leaders of the senate and house will be held next Thursday to discuss means of getting more revenue. A meeting of tho cap ltol commission will be held Tuesday to award the contract for tearing down the old stiucture.

F1QI1T ENDS IN CR1A1E. Three ill en Shot in u l'rncns in Alle gheny County, Pittsburg, May 23. Negley Post Of fice, a. small hamlet near Unity, on the line of the New Pittsburg, Besse mer and Lake Erie railroad, was the scene of a desperate light among color ed laborers on the road, at an early hour this morning. Pay day and a gang of toughs who tried to get the men's money with whisky and -cards caused the trouble. Three men were shot. Keefe, a fore man, white, aged 30 years; James Ross, colored, and another colored man nam ed Gordon. All the men engaged In the fight were employed by Rodgers, Parrell and Hageman, the railroad contractors. On Thursday the firm paid its employes. Many" robberies and hold-ups have been committed In the neighborhood recently that have not been reported afterward. It Is thought that tho pres ent trouble will cause the railroad of ficials to adopt stringent measures to put an end to the disturbances that have kept the Inhabitants of the terri tory through which the road passes In a state of continual terror. Sheriff Harvey Lowry and Ave depu ties, accompanied by County Detective Robinson, and two deputies, went to the scene of the shooting today. They found tha camp of railroad laborers quiet, and were unable to securo defi nite information concsrnlng the trouble. HOMESTEAD RACE WAR.

Tllllo Faith, the 11-year-old daughter of D. T. Faith, who lapses into trances, and when she rccovors tells the most Interesting stories of Heaven, is the reigning sen sation in White Township, Clearfield county. Tho child has been 111 nearly a year. Her nflllctlon has thus far puzzled every doctor who has visited her. Though sick, no true diagnosis of her case can be made. She will remain for hours in a trance like condition and when recovered will assert that In spirit she has visited Heaven. Her story seems to bear out her statement. She has described accurately the way her mother, who died elgh't years ago, was arrayed for burial, although the child did not see her dead parent be fore the funeral. Tlllle said she saw her mother In Heaven. She also de scribed a brother who died before she was born, and the description was so perfect that the bewildered fath'er Is not only perplexed, but considerably frightened. Hundreds of neighbors have visited the home of the little girl und conversed with her, and to all the questions asked she has given remark ably accurate replies. READY FOR THE PROBE.
