Harrisburg Notea.
The Marshall pipe line bill passed the
Senate, finally, last Thursday, and went
to the Governor.
Allegheny, Butler, Clarion, Washington,
Venango, Mercer, Warren and McKean
counties were well represented Tuesday,
at the hearing before Gov. Hastings re
garding the Marshall pipe line bill; and
Ex Senator Lee, Clarence Walker, and
several others made arguments; but they
seemed to have the Atty General against
them, and the chances for a veto were not
considered good.
It is not likely that the House Commit
tee on Appropriations will mako any re
port on bills in its charge until toward the
close of the session. With estimated rev
inues for the next two years of $19,000,000
and the general appropriation bill oarrying
$16,000,000, there is an apparent $3 000,000
for all other purposes. From this will be
taken $958,000 for the indigent insane and
$700,000 for the National Guard, and in
cluding about $125,000 already appropri
ated, will leave $1,225,000 into which
must be compressed about $14,000,000.
The Farr Compulsory education bill
passed the House finally, Monday, by a
vote of 154 to 13. Gov Hastings vetoed the
Bird Book bill, on account of the con
dition of the state treasury. A delegation
of Venango Co. people called on the Gov.
in the interest of Geo. S. Criswell for
Judge, and it was understood that he
would be appointed.
All the Oleo bills have been reported
favorably by the House Health and San
itation Committee. They provide for the
repeal of the oleo law, the stamping of
oleo and the licensing of oleo dealers and
Knocking out half the fine for the inform
ers.
On Wednesday Gov. Hastings signed the
Marshall bill which repeals the anti con
aolidation pipe line bill of 1883: and re
turned the bill to the House with a length
ly message giving his reasons for signing
it. The message concludes as follows:
"I am convinced after hearing both
sides ot the controversy, and upon the
fullest investigation, that the effect of
the act of 1883 is directly the reverse ol
its ostensible object. Instead of encour
aging competition and fostering the build
ing of pipe lines to compete with each
other, the fact that, when the property be
comes unprofitable, the owners are prohib
ited by law from selling it must necessari
ly discourage investors injsucb enterprises.
"All legislation the tendency of whict
is to control, hamper or re-strain individ
ual enterprises should, in my opinion, be
closely scanned, and unless some great
public reason exists to the contrary, it is
much better that all commercial enter
prises should remain unfettered by legis
lation. "
The name of Geo. S. Criswell to be Pres
ident Judge of Venango Co. was seni to
the Senate.
THE Hawaiian revolutionists saved their
precious necks, but they will languish in
prison for terms ranging lrom five to thirty
live years, and each pay SIO,OOO line. The
little matter of SIO,OOO fine is not liable to
worry a man very much when ho knows he j
is going to jail for thirty-five years. Still, ,
.they would rather go to jail than be hang
ed, for a man in jail is al've, and where
there's life there's hope. It would be in
teresting to known the condition of Urover
Cleveland's mind when he heard of the se
sere sentences meted out to these men.
To gome extent Cleveland is responsible
for the late that befell these revolutionists.
While he did not openly enconrage them,
it iB notorious that be sympathized with
Queeen Lil and her followers, and it would
have made him feel very much pleased if
the revolutionists had succeeded. They
knew this, and they were encouraged by
it —to such an extent that they planned
their schemes to overthrow the republic
and restore (jueen Lil. And then came
their undoing. It is quite likely we have
heard the last of revolutions in Hawaii.
' It is a dear experience—too dear to be
healthy for anybody else to undertake it.
Washington Notes.
The Senate spent some time in executive
gession, Friday, and confirmed a large
number of nominations, one ol them being
thai of Bigler for Collector of this district
and another that W. L. Wilson for P. M.
General.
The galleries and corridors of tbe Capitol
were orowded last Sunday, as both House
and Gonate remained in session that day;
all the necessary appropriation bills wore
pushed forward; during the day the Hawai
ian cable scheme and Cameron's bill to buy
the Blaine property were killed by the con
ference committees; by midnight nearly
all,tbe appropriation bills were in the bands
of tbe President.
Monday noon the 53d. Congress expired
quietly. In the House Reed and one or
two friends refused to join in a vote of
thanks to speaker Crisp; and in the Senate
the galleries laughed atVoorhees'announce
ment that the Presidect congratulated the
Senate on tbe completion of its wotk All
the appropriation bills bad reached tbe
President in time, and these were the only
two noteworthy incidents of the fit ul
adjournment.
The 53rd Congress will go into history
noted fur its failures, not for its successes.
It lasted longer and accomplished less
than any previous Congress. It has been
a Congress of details, not of policies. No
legislation of any permanent valae can l>«
placed to its credit. It has been marked
throughout by bitur feuds and factious
wrangliugs in tbe dominant party, and by
a consequent failure of fruitful result.
There has been bn'„ little affirmative
lation beyond appropriation bill?, and wbat
has been, ban been for the most part bad.

Clever Cameron.
A correspondent of the Pittsburg Dis
patch writing from Washington one day last
week said: —The closing days of the Fifty
third Congress are marked by an extrava
gance never before excelled.
The term of Billion Dollar Congress
which was applied to the last Republican
Congress as an opprobrium, is equally as
applicable to this Democratic Congresß.
The Senate is adding item after item to
appropriation bills which were already
loaded down with extravagant provisions
by the house. To-day a whole afternoon
was consumed in discussing and passing
an amendment to the sundry civil appro
priation bill, which carries an appropria
tion of $150,000 direct and contingent ex
pense of at least $50,000 more for the
purchase of property which the GoVerment
will have no use for. The appropriation is
in the interest alone of one United States
Senator, and he is J. Donald Cameron,
from Pennsylvania.
The appropriation is (or the purchase ot
what is known as the Blaine property on
Lafayette Square. This property was
leased a short time ago for a term of 99
vears to a Chicago syndicate for the pur
pose of building a magnificent theater on
the site. , .
The property adjoins a lot of idle ground
tbat has been in the possession of the
Government for years, but which has never
been utilized. Separated by a 30-foot alley
irom the Blaine property is the Cameron
mansion and grounds.
The Chicago syndicate, after securing
the lease, lost no time iu proceeding with
the work of demolishing the old Blaine
house, and soon had it leveled to the
ground. .
After the building had been torn down
it suddenly dawned upon Senator Gray, of
Delaware, that the Government needed
the ground, and he introduced a resolution
to purchase it. It soon became evident,
however, that Senator Cameron was the
one interested in the purchase. With the
old Blaine mansion removed, the valne o:
the Cameron property was vastly increased'
It permitted a magnificent southern view
from 25 windows in the Pennsylvania Sen
ator's house. A magnificate outlook is
obtained of the White House* the White
House lot, the Monument grounds and the
placid Potomac. The idea of a large
theater being built upon the site was very
repugnant to Mr. Cameron, and soon the
idea of making the Government purchase
the useless ground was sprung.
The busiest man in the Senate to-day
was Senator Cemeron. He was flitting
from one Senator to the other lobbying for
this unnecessary appropriation, and such
influence did ha have with Democrats as
well as the Republicans that the item was
passed.
Mr Cameron is not able to arise on the
floor of the Sena.e and argue for a propo
sition, but when it comes to a matter in
which be is personally interested he has a
grip upon certain Democratic Senators
which compells their support. Possessed
ol great wealth, he has had the means of
accommodating some of his Senatorial col
leagues in the way of mortgages.
The idea of the Government grabbing
this property has been repulsive to Mrs
Blaine. She made the lease with the
theater syndicate on very advantageous
terms. There were to pay $5,000 a year
for 39 yoars, and $6,000 lor the following
60 years.
The interference of Cameron and his
friends is considered scandalous and a
reckless waste of public money. This
propertv was purchased five years ago by
Mr. Blaine, for something like $05,000
If the terms of the amendment adopted
to-day are carried out. it will cost the
Government at least $200,000. Mr. Cam
eron's activity in enchancintr the valie of
his own property, by having the Govern
ment prevent the erection of a new thea
tre next to it, is on a pai with his preven
tion of the erection of a new Government
printing office.
In 1890 Congress appropriated $200,000
for the purchase of a site for a new Govern
ment printing office. A commission was
appointed to select a eite, and simply be
cause the commission did not select a site
which be and ex-Senator Mahone were in
leres.ed in, Mr. Cameron nas succeeded in
preventing the purchase of any other site.
The present Government printing office is
a ramshackle building that is liable to col
lapse as did the old Ford's Theater two
years ago.
Sad Sequel to the Blair-White Contest
In our Friday's edition we made men
tion ot the shooting ot Thos. Steer, of
Rayne township. At that writing the
circumstances indicated the shooting war
done with suicidal intent. Mr. Steer died
of his wounds on Friday morning about 10
o'clock. It is now made evident that he
commi .ted suicide. As we have stated,
he was under bail to appear at Indiana on
Thursday to pay the co.-ts of an attach
ment and a fiue of five dollars, for failing
to appear and testify in the Blair-White
case. The fine and costs amounted to
some eight dollars, and being a very poor
| man, he was uuable to raise the money,
I and some people foolishly told him he
would have to go to jail unless the money
was paid. His miud wus much disturbed
over the affair tnd he frequently said he
would "rather be dead than go to "
On several occasions before the fatalj day,
be attempted to borrow a revolver, but
failed. On Wednesday evening before lie
was to appear in the court anil settle the
attachment business, he was served with
a summons to apper iu Indiana and testify
in the Blair White case. This frightaned
him very much and after supper at Mr.
Manners' he borrowed the gun and went
home. Ho remainded there but a few
moments, but appeared to be cheerful.
As he left the house he kissed his wife,
saving, "I will be back soon." lie took
the gun with bim and went directly to his
father's coal bank and entered the drift
some 200 feet, when he placed the muzzle
ol the gun to his right breast and touched
the trigger with the ram rod. The wound
ed man then came out of the bank and fell
exhausted when near his father's house.
He called for help and his father went out
and found bim. He first said the shooting
was accidental, but afterward admitted
he had shot himself, saying "I would
much rather die than have to go to jail. "
The exact spot where he committed tin
deed was discovered by the trail of b'ood
in the bank to the spot where was found
the powder horn and ram-rod. He had
carried the gun out with bim and placed
it in the coal wagon at the mouth of the
pit.
He was a man easily worried, and when
told that if he failedHo pay the money he
would have tc go to jail, he resolved to
kill himself Some ol the neighbors tried
to disabuse his mind of tbu notion that he
would be impiisionc-d, but he did not be
lieve tbem.
He leaves a wife and six small children
in destitute circumstances.
The thoughtless persons who worked on
the mind of the poor fellow are largely
responsible lor his sad death.—lndiana I'a,
Messenger.
The Danger is Real.
Employees of the Allrgbmy Valley rail
road and travelers who have had occasion
to pass th- gorge that blocks the river be
tween West Monterey and Kittauning, a
distance ol 30 miles, state in it tbe con
dition of the liver is frightful and tha'.
nothing has been said > r c »uld be said
that would exaggerate the terrible danger
that threatens the residents of the towns
along the river between those two places
Tbe ice has been gorged for weeks and has
apparently frozen clear to the bottom,
making a dam that is anywhere from 15 to
30 feet thick and all of 30 miles long
Against this apparently immovable bar
rier tbe immeasurable volumes of water
and floes of ice from Oil City and points
above and below have been beating them
selves and only adding '.o the heigUi,
breadth and thickness of ihf big dam. At
Tetnpleton station, Orrnll eta ion and Ma
honing, the water became so high that
residents ol these towns have been com
pelled to move from their homes and the
water is still rising. At Brady's Bend the
water is within four feet of the bridge and
at tho lowest calculation the water and ioe
in tbe river at that point is all of 30 f«et
deep. Tbe fret zing cold weather of yes
terday oftcrnoon and last night is making
the gorge thicker and more compact every
minute and with th« water ri-ing the res
ideuts are in desperation. The situation
has never been so dreadful or apparently
so full of threatened danger as at present,
and there is apparently nothing that can
bo done by human agency to avert tho
most destructive flood that must como
with a rain or warmer weathei. Watch
men are patrolling the river banks near all
tbe threatened towns to prevent possible
loss of life should the gorge give way.—

Railroad Disaster in Mexico,
One of the most frightful accidents in
the history of the Mexican railroads, re
sulting in the killing of 104 persons and
the serious, if not fatal injury of nearly
100 others, occurred latt Thursday after
noon on the Interoceanic railroad at a
point about 25 miles from tho city of
Mexico. , ,
A few days before a great number of
persons left the capital and towns in the
vicinity to go on a pilgrimage to the Cath
olic shrine at Sacre Monte. Tickets for
the pilgrimage were sold at reduced rates
over the Interoceanic line and this road
carried the bulk of the pilgrims. On
Thursdav a long train, aboard of which
were 1,200 passenger.-, was returning from
the place of pilgrimage. All went well
until a point on the line about midway
between Temaintla Tenango was reached.
On this part of the road there is a steep
incline, the line at one place having a
sharp curve where it runs close to the
edge of a high precpiee. This is one of
the mo.-t dangerous places on tho road
and was rendered more so by the fact that
the track here was not in the best of con
dition.
As the train began to run down the in-
cline, many of the passengers were laugh
ing and joking, while others were loosing
out of the windows at the rapidly passing
scenery, which, at that point, is grand.
Soon the speed of the train began to in
crease nnd it was soon running at a fright
ful rate. The passengers ceased their
laughing and joking and looked at each
other with fear depicted in their faces.
Steadily the momentum of the train,
which "was now swaging and bounding
fearfully, increased and soon the danger
ous high curve was struck. As the engine
took the curve it swayed outward and
either jumped the track or turned a ra l.
It dashed across the scanty space between
the rails and the edgo of the chasm and
plunged downward. One after another
three coaches filled with passengers,
dashed after it and piled up in a mass of
wreckage at the foot of the precipice.
The next two coaches also jumped the
track, but most fortunately did not go
over the edge of the precipice. As the
fifth coach left the metals it twisted and
broke the coupling connecting it with the
coaches behind it. These coaches kept
the rails and passed safely around the
curve Afier running a considerable dis
tance they were stopped by the hand
brak«s.

Comnrunicated.
MR EDlTOß— Locking over a petition
prepared by the temueranco people, re
garbing the granting of retail license in
our town to be presented to Court at its
approaching license term, brings to mind
tb.it significant poetic stanza; "Walk Into
my Parlor said the Spider to the Fly."
It is simply an indirect method of joining
the liquor league in asking the Court to
grant license.
In consideration for this, the liquor in
terest permits them to ask tbe Court to
assume the r-do of a legislature, and a
High Constable. It is not to be supposed
the court will am • «ith r r le. It w 1
be quit<* enough if he passes upon e&ch
case as the papers come before him.
Surely the rank ami tile ol the temperance
people will not accept this as a solution
of tbe question at issue. Z.
