BUSINESS LIKE LEGISLATURE Work in the Senate and House at Harrisburg Expeditiously Transacted. THE REGULARS IN CONTROL Mnnjr Subjects and Dlvrne latrreata Are Alrrtrd by llllla ot 1 adrr ConKlilermlun la Committee or ; laBae la Hota lloaaes. (Special Correspondence.) Harrlsburjr, Feb. 12. The last week bas beo one of unsual interest in leg islative matters. Many new bills have been introduced In the senate and the house covering a variety of subjects, and some of them, after being referred to committee, will never again see the light of day. But there are many measures under consideration that are of general Interest and which it Is important to keep track of, that legislators may know the sentiment of their constituents. This is a business like legislature and with the regulars in control of both houses there is little opportunity for the insurgents to fili buster. THIS WEEK'S FROGRAM. There will come up this week for fi nal passage in the house bills establish ing a departmentof forestry: providing for the study of physical culture in the public schools In first, second and third class cities, if they so elect; au thorizing borough councils to pay a portion of the cost and expense of grading, curbing and paving side walks; regulating the manufacture of flour and meal products; establishing a division of horticulture and pomology in the department of agriculture, and giving cities and boroughs power and authority to consent to the construc tion of water works and the entry upon the streets and highways within their limits. CONGRESSIONAL APPORTION MENT. The congressional apportionment bill has been introduced and referred to a committee in the senate, which gives Philadelphia two additional congress men, one additional to Allegheny and forms a fourth district from counties taken from two of the western dis tricts. There will be changes in the districts before the bill is passed Anal ly, as the whole matter will probably be referred to a committee on confer ence. ACHESON S END HAS COME. There Is one reasonable certainty and that is that Congressman Acheson, who hns been working with the in surgents and Republican party wreck ers, will be bowled out of a district. The present plan is to take away from his district that portion of Allegheny which gave him support from the Klinn insurgents and to form a new district to be made up of Washington, which is Acheson's home county, and Beaver and Lawrence, both strong stalwart Republican counties. A fight has ul ready been started against Acheson's control of the Republican organization in Allegheny. Among the bills passed finally In the house Inst week were the following: Validating all elections to vote upon the question of increasing the indebt edness of municipalities: ratifying and confirming legal documents acknowl edged before George R. Bothwcll. of Allerheny; repealing the act of April 8. 18ii2, for the protection of sheep In Westmoreland and Armstrong coun ties, and extending to these con lit Its the general laws for the tnxation of dogs and the protection of sheep: pro viding that pupils may remain at the soldiers' orphans' schools after attain ing the age of 16 until the close of the school year; repealing the act of July 8. 1895. regulating the affairs of school districts and sub-school districts in second class cities and to repeal local and special laws inconsistent there with; to protect children and making It a misdemeanor to place free or trial samples of medicines, ink. dyes, color ing or polishing compounds In any form where children can secure them. The house committee on counties and townships, by a vote of 19 to 1, Mr. Hawnrth. of Luzerne, voting In the af firmative, decided to report negatively the bill to create a separate county out of portions of Luzerne and Schuylkill counties, with Hazleton as the county seat. EMPLOYERS' LIABILITY BILE. An employers' liability bill which greatly widens the scope of the present act has been introduced in the house by Mr. Jones, of Philadelphia. It Is modeled after the Massachusetts law on the same subject. It provides that any employe who may be injured while he Is himself in the exercise of due care and diligence at the time, by reason of any defect of ways, works or machin ery of his employer, which arose from or had not tieen discovered or reme died owing to the negligence of the em ployer or any person in his service, who had the duty of saying that the ways, works or machinery were In proper condition, or by reason of the negligence of any superintendent or any person in charge, or control of any sign, switch, locomotive, engine or train, the employe or his representa tive. In case of death, shall have the right of compensation nnd remedy against the employer as If the emploje had not been employed or In the ser vice of the employer. Much attention is being given the bill taxing foreign corporations. Few defend It. and those in a position to know pay it would cripple some of the largest corporations in Pittsburg. This, together with several other corpora tion measures Introduced, has been favorably reported by the committee on ways and means. The foreign cor porations tax bill, it is said, will either be recommitted or killed on Beeond reading. Representative Smyth, of Philadel phia, desires the law providing for compulsory vacrlnatlon In the public school repealed. NEW BANKING MEASI'RE. A bill creating In the hankine de partment a bureau of bulidine and loi i associations has been Introduced In ue house of representatives by Mr. Cnl W. of Harrlsbnrr. Tbn hill me oniee or superintendent ot Bund ing and loan associations, who shall be appointed by the superintendent of banking and receive a salary of 3,000 annually. If any association shall within 30 days nfter having been giv en notice of any reduction or impair ment in its assets, neglect to make grnid the deficiency, tue commissioner shall call a meeting of the sharehold ers at Its home uuVe to either deter mine or scale the values of shares to such an extent as to fully provide for the deficiency and continue to carry on Its business or go into voluntary liquidation. Mr. Calder Introduced a companion bill which authorizezs mutual saving fund and buildiug and loan associa tions to Issue full paid and prepaid stock and validate such stock hereto fore issued. Mr. Jones Introduced a bill supply ing a proceeding in replevin and apply ing the affidavit of defense law to it. A bill creating a department of pilnes was presented by Mr. Philbln. of Lackawanna. It provides for a chief, whose salary shall be $4,000 a year, and two assistants, one of whom shall be a mining engineer. A BATCH OF NEW BILLS. Among other bills introduced in the house are the following: To prohibit the sale of adulterated milk In second-class cities; appropri ating $20,000 to St. Francis' hospital, Pittsburg. Extending the provision of the act of June 8. 1S93, so as to limit the dura tion of the lien upon real estate of the debts of decedents. Appropriating $35,000 to the Key stone state commission of the Pan American exposition. Validating private sales of real es tate of decedents.

A. R. in such cities. Requiring clubs to take out liquor li censes. Providing that screens nnd all ob structions shall be removed from all hotels, restaurants and other places where liquors are licensed to be sold. REVIEW CF flrailiit rent's Rep"t on Cnulltlnm at UnttltteM Thrntnthint Hi- t'oiinirr. NEW YORK, Fob. It.-Rradstrect't today says: Trade developments this week, aside from those connected with rumored combinations In great Indus tries, of which it seems as yet too early to speak authoritatively, have been in the main favorable. Several lines of trade and many staple prices show ir regularity, but this is probably no more pronounced than usual at this season of the year. The feature of the week In distributive jobbing lines ha been the growth of spring demand In the South ami Southwest, reflected In enlarged sales of drygoods. Itoots and shoes, cloth ing and millinery at lending centers there and In the Central West. Better advices as to the outlook for trade come from the Northwest nnd Fa clfic coast reports are no lesi encourag inir. Ilrtail distribution of winter goods reflects the stimulus afforded by winter weather, but earlier quietness and per haps Inrxe stocks still carried are prob ably responsible for the slowness of col lections to improve. Prices ore still ir regular, though not much lower as n whole. Clearings undoubtedly reflect speculation in the enormous totals re ported, but the gains outside the metrop olis, in the conntry-nt-lnrge, indorse the reports from a number of cities of a to tal trade larger than a year ago. . 1'nilwny earnings likewise point to s substantial gain over January a year ago, which marked the highest point reached up to that time in this branch of industry. The cereals are dull, Irregular and rather lower on large Argentine ship ments and liberal Northwest movements, the supporting feature being the good ex port inquiry developed at concessions. The strength of sole leather is a fea ture noted at ninny markets. Buyers are reported more willing to meet man ufacturers' views as to prices. Lumber has lagged among building material, but is stiffening in price as the season of ac tive operations approaches. Demand for wool is only to cover man ufacturers' snles, and some soft spots are reported. Plain dress woolens are in chief demand, nnd men's wear goods are slow of snle. Iron and steed have been rather quiet, but steady and even strong as to price with finished products, particularly struc tural material in active inquiry. Imme diate delivery of steel billets can only be obtained at advances of 50 cents to $1.00 over the pool price. Bessemer pig iron is strong and 25 to SO cents higher on the week. Wheat, including flour, shipments for the week aggregate 4,9!7,S13 bushels, against 3,7Ti'..li bushels last week, '2. Isrj,3,i7 bushels in the corresponding week of l'.HKI, ,-,7SO..")(Ki bushels in 18'JU and 3,41I..KU bushels in 1SH8. Corn exports for the week aggregate 4,171,440 bushels against 3.mi7,7o7 bush els (corrected) last week, 3,4u0,!tfi! bush els in this week a year ago, 3.S'k,(122 bushels in 1SSKI and 4.5118,012 bushels in ISiiK. Business failures for the week number 245. against 1KM last week, 2:il In this week a year aun, 1113 in lS'M, 278 in 18US and 301 in lh'J7. ALDER MN'S WAGES.

Representative! of the boards of aldermen of Rochester, Syracuse, Troy and Albany met in thif city yesterday and recommended to th state legislature several amendments U the uniform charter for cities of the sec ond class.

Another important amendment provide) that a two-thuds instead of a three fourths vote shall be necessary in t lie adoption by the council of the annua tax budget or resolutions appropriating public money. Several minor niiieud ments nre proposed including one raisin). from $50 to $'J."0 the maximum nmoiiiii the head of n city department may ex pend for supplies without a contract, The aldermen held u banquet lusl night and will meet agniu today.

THE REFORM SHAM EXPOSED l.i-ailln Cltlseaa Tell of (he llurdrna That Have Fallea I P Them a the Itesnlt of Mnehlnr Domination and Ask 1'auaae of the Hipper' lllll. (Special Correspondence.) Philadelphia. Feb. 12. Led by the chamber of commerce nnd the board of trade of the East Side, citizens of Pittsburg are now engaged in a deter mined struggle to relieve the govern ment of that city of control by the political machine of which Senator William Flinn is the acknowledged boss. Senator Fllnn, as leader of the insurgent movement in state politics, recently suffered defeat in the bitter struggle to prevent the re-election of Col. M. S. Quay to the United States senate. In his campaign against the leaders of the Republican organization Flinn made loud and frequent profes sions of reform, and he and his agents went about the state posing as repre sentatives of all that was good and pure In politics. CITIZENS A HE AROI'SED. Now that Fllnn's neighbors have un dertaken to deprive him of the polit ical power which has been his main source of revenue for years Kllnn Is seen In a new light by the people of the state. There has been Introduced at Harris burg a bill granting new charters to Pittsburg, Allegheny Uty and Scran ton. To satisfy the demands of citi iens of Pittsburg, who wish an oppor tunity to elect a mayor without inter ference or dictation from the fi.OOO of ficeholders and employes of contractors In the Flinn combine, a provision has been Introduced in this new chnrter bill which Is known as the "ripper." This bill provides that the governor shall appoint the first mayor tinder the new charter, who shall hold office for about a year, before the mayor to be elected by the people shnll be chosen. This arrangement will prevent the present Pittsburg ring from having absolute control of the nomination nnd election of the first charter mayor or for the full term. Ql'AY FOR REFORM. Advocates of reform In Pittsburg Have appealed to Col. M. S. Quay and other Republican leaders In the state to help them secure the desired "rip per" legislation. Last week Col. Quay sent a telegram from Florida to Attor ney General Elkln, In which he said: "I am much improved In health and Will go north within the next ten days. e want my friends to stand by me and pass the charter bill, because the people Interested In good government demand It. M. S. QUAY"' FI INN Rl'I.R EXPOSED. There was an Interesting session be fore the senate committee on munici pal affairs at Harrisburg when busi ness men manufacturers and others isom Pittsburg were Heard in support of the "ripper" bill. The only oppo nents of the measure were officehold ers or other beneficial ies undor the Flinn regime. One of the most nota ble speeches before this committee was made by Charles S. Crawford, a well known citizen of Pittsburg and mem ber of the East Side hoard of trade, who reviewed the delegation present to protest against the "ripper." Among other things he said: "The Individual testimony of the Pittsburg councllmanic committee, al though relevant, should be given no weight. A glance at the personnel of that committee will be sufficient to show to you the probable biasness of their arguments. John A. Murphy ts the law partner of Representative George M. Hosack, whose close af filiations with the insurgent leader is known by every person present. W. H. McCleary has for a long time been closely connected with the political leader and is an ex-sheriff. John TJp perman presented to councils last June the resolution which ousted the direc tor of public works. John Benz has been closely connected with all legis lation proposed and instigated by the insurgent boss. George S. Fleming is widely known as a close adherent to any principles advanced by the insur gent leader. W. A. Magee is a brother of the Hon. C. A. Magee. And I might here add that it has been the feeling of a great many pecple In Pittsburg that, had it not been for the unfor tunate and severe bodily illness of Hon. C. A. Magee for the past three years, the causes and complaints that have given rise to the 'ripper' bill would not have had this culmination. "Kirk Q. Bingham is the member of common council wno a few years ago attempted to saddle upon the city a hillside In the Thirty-second ward for park purposes, having been turned down through the Intervention of Hon. John J. Sweeney and others. Mr. Bing ham within the past year has endeav ored, after laying out a part of the property in lots and cutting a tier of lots from the whole, to saddle on the city the remaining portion o'. the prop erty at the enormous price of $32.0o0, when in reality the property would hardly sell for $15,000. "Of Mr. Semmelrock and Mr. Rplaln but little can be said, except that they are known to be closely allied with In surgent movements. PITTSBURG'S BAD GOVERNMENT. "I have 'no delicacy In telling you that the government of Pittsburg is needlessly expensive and generally condemned. It is Inefficient and Hb methods bring the worst voters to the polls and largely repel tjie most wor thy. Our city government for the past ten years has been so administered as to be generally regarded as discredit able to an American citizen and a scandal to our republican 6ystem. Our municipal affairs have been so largely controlled by one man for his personal aggrandizement that unselfish devotion to public interests is discouraged, and very few men have the heart or cour age to oppose the selfish ruler. "Under our present form of govern ment official malfeasance is a common offense, and our people are familiar with official connivance in the matter of the purchase of real estate for pub lic Improvements. The present admin istration and the controlling power back of It have made and developed a demoralization and corruption In pol itics which the persistent efforts of the most unselfish partlotlc citizens have not been able to hold In check; It has made the management of mu nicipal politics nnd elections a degrad ing business by which a elans of life less nnd vicious politicians prosper, and last, but not least, It has developed to an alarming degree a degrading and corrupt rvslem of boss rule. WHAT THE "RIPPER" WILL DO. "The primary object of this "ripper" bill is that of making It. possible for good men, unselfish men, men not af filiated with local politics, men not connected with city contract work, to be advanced to our municipal offices. From our past nnd present experience we know that our future experience will onlv be a repetition of the past and present If this charter Is not pass ed with the 'ripper' appendage. "I have always been enthusiastically opposed to any kind of harsh treat ment; I have always advocated a fair trial and fair play. I say to you, with out fear of contradiction, that the pres ent administration and the gigantic boss behind It have had more than ample time and resources to establish in our city a 'people's government, made for the people, made by the peo ple nnd answerable to the people.' And what has been the result of their pro longed trial? To what purposes have the time and resources been applied? We have worse than a ring ridden city. The name of Pittsburg, so dear to the hearts of its citizens, is all but taken from us. Politically speaking, our city is the capital of the Insurgents and boxers, and may be appropriately called Rlngtown. The government Is the boss' government, made by the boss, made for the boss and nnswer able only to the boss. The jienple have not been given the slightest consider ation. The wants nnd needs of the people have been totally disregarded, except In instances of personal gain for the boss. Every effort of the people for fairness In legislation is promptly met by the boss with the expression, 'I am in this for business, you from principle.' And business always pre vails." "We not only wnnt the fundamental law changed." said former Postmaster J. B. I.arkin. "but we appeal to you to change the people who execute the law. The taxable valuation of real estate In Pittsburg has Increased from $S7,000. OdO In 1SS0 to $300.000 000 in 1901. The 'organization' was only In Its Infancy In 1S90. nnd for eight years Increased the valuations gradually, but under the charter now lu force it has inflated real estate values $152,000,000, the in crease in 12 years being 211 per cent, although the Increase In population was only about 100 per cent. The to tal warrants issued In the 12 years was $T9.35SU!2. From 1S94 to 1S07 warrants were ordered drawn to the amount of $:!2.S4S.OOO. The bonded debt has been Increased $2.321.fi75. "The people want an ouster to restore the government to them. This would not be revolutionary. The organiza tion names every official a month be fore vacancies occur. The kind of gov ernment It gives Is a fnr(. that yen cannot too quickly relieve ti e people of. bearing In mind the f.vt thr". when the organization desires to remove or get rid of any feature cr riie-i'-er of the government it acts Instantly and without bearing, trial or sentiment." llli Accompaniments.
