INTERESTING WEEK
AT HARRISBURG
Knotty Problems That Will Confront
Senator Alntthew S. Quay.
PROVIDING FOR THE DEFICIENCY
The Question of Wiping Out n Debt
of 83,000,000, and nt tlio Sumo
Timo Taking Cnro of Numerous
Charities, Confronts tlio Lcglslti-turo-I'nrly
Ailjoiiimcnt a I'hysicnl
Impossibility.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Harrlsburg, Juno 20. Senator Quay
Is coming- to town tomorrow night to
dictate a policy which will get the leg
islature out of its present entangle
ment. The tnsk before him la not, a
small one. The attempt to show that
a deficiency In the state revenues does
not exist ha); failed. The common
wealth Is today $3,500,000 in debt. Quay
must find some way of wlpplng this
out, .and at the same time getting cash
enough to care for the numerous char
ities of the state. In addition to this
he will .have to again face the Pitts
burg charter boomers and decide
whether that city Is to be given a
new form of government.
'Some of the leaders are Intimating
thnt they are preparing to adjourn
July 1. This is considered a physical
Impossibility as there arc only nine
legislative days loft. The Quayites nre
counted on reducing the school appro
priation to $5,000,000 a year. This is
meeting with the strongest kind of
opposition In both branches. The de
bate on this proposition will at least
take up a day. There will also be fights
on tlio bills of the investigating and
election committees. This is especially
true of the Philadelphia "Lexow" ap
propriation, many of the members hav
ing prepared set speeches.
The Grace church bill will cause an
other fight. Then owing to the scarc
ity of cash the appropriations commit
tee will be forced to pare down all
appropriations, and each of these bills
will take more time in passing than
is ordinarily the case. The necessity,
therefore, of extending the session Is
apparent to most people, and It will
probably be one of the things which
Senator Quay will do. The "70" will
oppose an extension unless the Quay
men furnish proof that they Intend
to raise sulllclent revenue from prop
er sources to care for all charities.
NATIONAL GUARD APPROPRIA
TION. The proposition to decrease the ap
propriation to the National Guard and
dispense) with the annual encampment
will cause a fight. The soldier boys
are willing to wait two years longer
on an appropriation for dress uniforms,
hut they. will not agree to be deprived
of their summer outing. Adjutant Gen
eral Stewart says-the Guard was nev
er In better shape nnd that it would
be a gioat mistake to reduce the ap-
-prdprlatlon. The officers and men are
working In perfect harmony all over
tb '.state, but If the appropriation Is
st'aled down the membership will bo
reduced one-third in the next two
years.
Governor Hastings has approved a
bill Increasing the bonus on letters
patent. It was introduced by Mr.
Smith, of Bedford, and will Increase
the state revenues about $500,000 a year.
The act Is an amendment to the gen
eral corporation of 1874, and provides
that all thei bonus on charters and of
the Increase of the capital stock of cor
porations shall he paid In advance.
j The bonus Is increased from one-fourth
in unu per ueiii. iu uiii'-wui u ui uui
per cent. Corporation Clerk Farns-
worth, of the state department, says
that the act will increase state reve.
nues nearly $300,000 a year. Under the
old law one-halt of the bonus is paid
when the charter was Issued, and the
othT portion In one year thereafter.
This necessitated the auditor general
to keep an account with these corpora
tions, and required him to collect the
deferred payments. Some times action
had to bei Instituted to secure these
collections and It was not an unusual
thing for corporations to dissolve be
fore the second payment was due, thus
t,he state lost a large amount of money
annually. Under the Smith law all the
bonus must be paid Into the office of
the secretary of the cpnunonwealth
When the charter Is issued and on the
Increase when the papers are Hied.
AGAINST UNPATENTED LAND.
The governor has also signed a bill
pro llng for r state Hen foi unpaid
pure se money, fees and interest
ngalA unpatented land. There are
many 'acts of land granted by the
cnmniCv valth yeais ago on whleh
there is a'tlll due the state purchase
money, Interest and fees. In most
cases the amounts are rmall, but Im
mediate settlements must be' made,
otherwise costs to owners of these
tracts will be necessary. The records
of these liens Is kept In the prothono
tary's office of each ceunty. If the
cwners of the land do not make prompt
battlement the Internal affairs will at
'once Institute proceedings.
During the past week Governor Hast
ings signed the Campbell bill providing
for n tax on employers of aliens. The
bill provides that all persons, firms,
associations or corporations employ
ing one tr more foreign-born unnatur
alized male over 21 years of ago shall
be taxed at the rate of three cents a
day for eai'h day such alien may be
employed, 'The revenue derived Is to
be paid ijnto the respective county
treasuries, i , One-half of the amount la
to he distributed among the, school dis
tricts In proportion to the number of
schools Inj each district and the other
hair goes) to defray tho general ex
penses or 'the countv.
It Is tho duty of tho employers to
keop a recjordo'f the number of aliens,
their namlcs, places of birth and the
exact num'ber of days such persons are
employed during each month. This
record Is jjubject to tho examination of
the county commissioners, Employers
must make quarterly sworn reports to
th' fcommlssloners giving a. detailed
fctatement of the number of aliens cm
ptoyod and the number of days each
has woikcd Jurlnsr tho quarter. This
report must be accompanied by the
amount of tax money due the county.
Any failure, to comply strictly with
the act shall be deemed -a. misdemeanor
punishable by a fine of not less than
$300 nor more than f 1 ,000. The fine to
go to tho county.
Tho district attorney Is required to
proceed against persons violating the
r.ct. The commissioners are com
pelled to furnish blanks to the employ
ers for tho quarterly returns and havo
iuie power to pay persons, firms or
uriora.uons a rcoeonablo compensa-
lion for rendering such report. The
act gives all employers the right to de
duct the p.mo,unt of tax from the wanes
cf any and nil employes. The law
goes Into effect July 1,

EXERCISES AT BUCKNELL.
The Baccalaureate Sermon Delivered
Yesterday by Dr. HarrisEvening
, Discourse by Rev. Fohvcll.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Lewisburg, June 20. The Baccal
aureate sermon was preached this
morning in the Baptist church by
President John Harvard Harris, Ph.
D., L.L.D. The entire senior class,
thirty-six in number, were present In
cap and gown. The church was
crowded. Dr. Harris said in sub
stance: "Ye are my friends, says Christ, if
ye do the things which I command
you. We do not become friends by
obeying. Through grace we are made
friends; through love we obey. This
Is the principle of the kingdom of God.
Chrlstlantly Is a progressive realiza
tion of freedom. The life pf freedom
begins in the individual with the new
birth. Christ sets the intellect free.
Every Christian Is a free thinker. No
authority, civil or ecclesiastical has a
right to bind the judgment of men.
The theologian may rightfully form his
own conceptions of God, and connect
them In a systematic whole, but he may
not rightfully impose his system as
a finality either upon his own mind
or that of others. Christianity eman
cipates the whole, man, mind and af
fections. Emancipation is not an end
In itself. Man ceases from bondage
that he may really serve. The free
man of Christ becomes more truly a
servant than ever. This apparent con
tradiction Is solved by the unity of
freedom and authority In love.
The sermon before the Pennsylvania
Educational society was delivered this
evening In the Uaptist church by the
Rev. G. W. Folwell, pastor of the
South liroad street Baptist church,
Philadelphia. He took for hU subject,
"The Old, Old Story," and his text
from I Cor. 15; 3-4.: "Fv I delivered
unto you first of all that hlch I also
received."
He said that our first germinal
thought la the death of Christ, our
second Is His burial and our third Is
His resurrection. Also, that the gospel
Is immutable by the fact that it is a
prophetic gospel and by the fact that
It Is a historic gospel. Hence he con
cluded that wo have a perfect gospel
suitable for all times and every case.
WAGES TO BE RESTORED.
Good Tinics Havo Jtesun to Prevail
nt Pennsylvania Steel Works.
Harrlsburg, Pa., Juno 20. The out
look at the Pennsylvania Steel works
Is growing brighter every day, and the
continued Inquiry for prices is evi
dence of growing prosperity. The ship
ping department has put In a very
busy wnek. A large number of names
have been added to the payrolls this
week. Within a few days rumors havo
been circulated around tho steel works
In regard to wages.
It is now learned definitely that the
reduction of 10 per cent, made sev
eral months ago has been restored and
will take effect July 1. There has also
been a satisfactory adjustment of the
tonnage scale of the Bessemer. This
department seems to have suffered tho
most, and now the basis Is on a $1.75
tonnage. Hereafter nil employes will
be paid in cash.

GERMAN-AMERICAN
MUSIC FESTIVAL
Mammoth Musical Event Which Will
Occur in Philadelphia.
IMMENSE CHORUSES WILL DE HEARD
Klglitccnth Annual Sncngcrfcst oftlio
Northeastern Sncngcrbuiid to Open
Todnyrirst Three Days of tlio
I'cstivnl Hill lie Devoted to Vocul

tributed on Thursday.
Philadelphia, June 20. The eighteen
th annual saengerfest of the Northenst
orn Saengcrbund will open In this city
tomorrow nnd there Is every Indication
It will be the most mammoth musical
event of the kind ever held in this
country. The societies which will par
ticipate In the festival come from all
the larger cities in the eastern portion
of the United States, and the mass
choruses, which will form a disting
uishing feature of the fest, are made up
from selected singers In each society.
The various numbers in these choruses
will be rendered by six thousand male
voices, In addition to which there will
be a school children's chorus of 3,000
voices and choruses of mixed voices
numbering several thousand.
The first three days of tho festival
will bo devoted to the vocal contests
and concerts and tho remaining three
days to open air diversions and the
distribution of prizes. Many months
have been spent by the local commit
tees and their aids In perfecting tho de
tails of the occasion and tho result of
their labors has been to gather together
a chorus of male voices seldom, If ever
equalled In point of numbers and the
arrangement of a most elaborate pro
gramme to be sung In an auditorium
specially constructed for the purpose
and capable of seating comfortably
nearly 10,000 persons and by a little
crowding fully 5,000 more can lie ac
commodated. In addition to this the
utmost attention has been given to re
hearsing. For the past two years tho
musical directors of the league have
been making regular tours through the
territory of the association instructing
the singers in the numbers to be ren
dered, The Fest will open with a reception
concert by the United Singers, of Phila
delphia, and a ladles' choir. Arno
Leonhardt, president of the United
Singers, will welcome the visiting socie
ties, as will Governor Hastings, Mayor
Warwick and it is hoped Vice Presi
dent Hobart, although the attendance
of the latter is doubtful. Carl Lenz,
president of the Saengerbund, will also
make an address. Following this will
come the festival hymn, composed for
the occasion. On Tuesday there will
be prize singing for Individual societies
in the first and second class and one
half of those in the third class. The
second day wll be brought to a close
by a grand festival concert under the
direction of Carl Samans.
PRIZE SINGING.
Tho next day will be taken up with
prize, singing for the remaining half
of the third class for individual so
cieties and the two classes for the city
federation prizes. Samuel Hermann
will direct tho festival concert Wednes
day night, and at its close tho "Star
Spangled Banner" will be sung by the
5,000 male voices and the audience.
Tho prizes will be distributed on
Thursday at Lleiz's Washington park,
in connection with the open air exer
cises to continue until Saturday, when
tho official closing of the- fest will be
announced by President Leonhardt.
The five Judges of the contests have
been selected for the occasion. Each is
an accomplished professional musician,
and not connected with any society
in the league. They have been select
ed In such a manner as to withhold
tho Identity of one from the other, and
not until the contests are over and they
meet to compare notations, will each
learn who his associates are. The dif
ferent qualities to be judged are in
tonation, precision, light and shade,
phrasing and enunciation. There are
six points to each quality, and the so
ciety scoring the highest number of
points in each contest will be awarded
the first prize of that class.
The auditorium covers the entire
block bounded by. Eleventh, Twelfth,
York and Cumberland streets. The
area Is 200 by 352 feet and the height
is 05 feet. The style of architecture is
German renaissance. There are no gal
leries, and tho ncoustic properties of
the place, as demonstrated by tho re
hearsals which have been going on for
the past several weeks, are as perfect
as the most advanced scientific con
struction can mnke them.
Tho organizations which will partici
pate consist of some of the most fa
mous In the history of German-American
music.
