Rcsolutiono Fassod by Both Sonata and Houbb Agroolng to Adjourn Not Lntor Than April 20 Sconos and Incldonts Sosalon. of tho Oponing Hurrlsburg, Jan. 3. There were tho usual scenes and Incidents at the open ing session today of the liouso ot rep resentatives. There was added Inter est owing to tho occupancy of the new capltol. Tho chamber occupied by the legislators of tho lower branch ot tho nssembly was a surprise for most of the members. They expected to meet In a barn-llko and uncomfortable hall, without furnishings savo those of tho plainest description, but instead the spacious hall Is not only attractive, but comfortable. Tho decorations are not costly, but they hide tho bare walls and conceal the temporary finish of tho big room. A liberal use of burlap, with tempor ary panels and pilasters, and gilt dec orations with shields nnd tings, gave a cheerful, If not magnificent, aspect to all tho surroundings. The desks of many members were hidden by beauti ful Jlornl pieces, the gifts of admiring constituents. There wero great floral baskets and magnificent horreshoes and all manner of flowers and tho re cipients of these tokens of esteem sat behind them out of sight. The galler ies were crowded throughout tho pro ceedings and there was a great Interest In all thnt occurred. CALLED TO ORDER. Tho house was called to order shortly after 12 o'clock by Chief Clerk Rex.

Owing to tho absence of a judge to swear in the speaker, a recess was taken until Judge Slinonton, of Harrls burg, could be summoned. Mr. Farr made a brief address of thanks, In which he promised to be fair and cour teous in his trentment of the members. Jere B. Rex, of Huntingdon, was re elected chief clerk and A. D.

Jan. 3. The market was Irregular today but left oft strong with fractional gains In most shares ana with a larger ndance In other stocks where Interest largely centered. Initial prices were generally higher but subsequotly tho courso of speculation was somewhat rcactory and London sold gome 20,000 Bhorcs partly on the Philippine Incident and renowed talk of troublo between Franco and England. I'rollt taking sales caused somo of tho railways to recode from the early best figures. In the af ternoon rise thcro was an Incrouso In tho volume of trading. Reading, Fedoral Steel, Pullman and Amorican Bplritsi each In turn wero strong. Improvement In tho anthracite trade becnuso of the cold weather was aslgned as a reason for tho rlso In that stock, although the advance In the prlco of coal predicted from the beginning of tho year failed to materialize. Total sales wero 735,400 shares. Quotations furnished by LABAIt & FULLER, stock, grain and cotton brok ers, rooms 209 and 210, IJoard ot Trade building, Soranton. Pa.
