FOB JURY COMMISSIONER,
A. O. EIIERHART.
HARRISBURG.
Tbe legislature is now in the fifth
month of the session and there is no
te 1 ling how long the session will laot.
although it is pretty generally believed
that the middle of June will see th
end There are now enough bills on
the calendar to keep the members bus}
day and night for two months at leasr
Had more work been done dnnng tne
first two months the calendar
havebeen cleared before the
tore adjourns: as it is. many gix>d bills
will never receive the attention due
There are nearly five hundred bill??
on the House calendar for second and
third readings. Twenty per cent, of
these have come from the senate. Be
sides there are twenty bills awaiting
first reading.
The architects of the State have been
taking ffreat interest in the new c-api
tal-building, and there has been some
uriring of candidates for the place. It
is expected that as soon as the archi
tect is selected the work will coin-
Dr Delaney, Superintendent of Pub
lie Buildings and Grounds, is overrun
by persons with an eye on cbances for
Work, desiring to know when the work
of demolishing the old building will
commence. There are many times as
many applicants for work as there will
be men employed.
By way of ai>ology for the slow J» r ®"
cress made by our Legislature, Hon.
W O Smith says in the Punxsutawney
Spirit that the work of the session has
not reached that point whsre final ac
tion can be taken on a great many bills,
but much preliminary work has been
done, and from this on the work w ill
make a better showing. There IB point
in his added remark: "The Legisla
ture really deserves, as a ral ® m^ r ®
credit for the bills it defeats, than for
the bills it pitsses. A great many bills
need killing.''
The direct inheritance tax bill, with
the Senate amendments, passed the
House, last week, and has received the
Governor's signature. It is
that the bill wili raise fully
The exact scope and revenue of the owl
cannot be stated. It taxes estates that
are not already settled. Lnder this
law, if a man dies, leaving to his wid
ow property worth more than *->,UW
she pays a tax of 2 per cent. W hen she
dies the heirs pay 2 per cent. more. As
the unmarried children pass away,
their heirs pay the collateral mherv
tance tax of 5 per cent Opponents of
the bill argue that it will result in the
placing of property in trust before
death so as to avoid this tax.
On Tuesday Gov. Hastings and sever
al prominent members of the Legisla
ture held a conference at which it was
decided to push the Revenue and Ap
propriation bills, and endeavor to bring
tho session to an end by June 1 * th.
In the Senate that day the bill for
bidding the exhibition of prize-fight
pictures passed finally.
IT is noteworthy that nearly all the
silver Senators voted against the Arbi
tration treaty last week. They thus
snubbed the late President and Secre
tary of State who negotiated the treaty,
and at the same time slapped the Brit
ish Government, which stands immov
ably in the way of the international
coinage of silver.
THE act ot the Legislature allowing
the establishment of free public kinder
gartens in this State, recently signed
by Gov. Hastings, is short and plain.
It has only one section, as follows:
and maintain
out of the public school treasury free
kindergartens for children between the
ages of three and six years residing in
their districts."
An Incident in the House.
(From Friday's Gazette.)
Representative W. H. Keyser of Phil
adelphia this morning caused himself
to be very much disliked. He was in
the chair most of the session. About
12:30 Mr. Young of Tioga made a mo
tion to reconsider the vote by which
the resolution making a special order
for the trolley eminent domain bill was
defeated last Friday. There was an
understanding yesterday that the ses
sion was to last until 2 o'clock to day.
Mr. Young did not anticipate an ad
journment before that time. He stat
ed his motion and a second later John
Scott of Philadelphia moved to adjourn
at the suggestion of a gentleman in
terested in steam roads. Another
member seconded the motion.
Mr. Young tried to protest, but
Lytle of Huntingdon rushed up the
aisle, calling to Keyser that the motion
was not debatable. Keyser quickly
put the motion and there was a cry of
yeas. This was followed by a stronger
shout of nays. A second later there
was a call for a division. At the same
time Mr. James Moore of Butler called
for a roll call. He said that his de
mand was seconded. Keyser in his
eagerness to prevent the trolley lines
from winning the day, declared the
house adjourned until Monday night.
Speaker Boyer stood beside Keyser and
saw him give this deal to Mr Young.
He immediately went down and spent
ten minutes apologizing to the Tioga
man. He said that Keyser had not
acted fairly.
Mr. Moore of Butler is very indig
nant over Keyser's action. He says
that there is too much of this kind of
thing being done this session. He is
end' uvorinn to have a caucus of the
members Monday night to protest
against this sort of treatment. Some
of the members are in favor <>f petition
ing Speaker Boyer to keep Keyser out
of the chair for the balance of the ses
sion. Two years ago a speaker pro
tem was hissed ont of the chair for an
action similar to the one to day. Mr.
Young can call up the motion Monday
night and will do so. The affair to-day
has made him many friends, and the
steam railroads will have hard work to
keep the bill from passing.
THE Engineering News is authority
for the statement that there are is lilts
water works in the Union, and that of
these fully 17(10 are owned by the dif
ferent towns and cities. Of the fifty
largest cities only nine are now depen
dent upon private colorations for their
public water supply.
A Kansas City clergyman declares
that he "would rather see whiskey
given away than sold from licensed
saloons. " And a great many profession
al topers will enthusiastically indorse
that platform.
THE longest bridge in the world is
said to l»e in China over an arm of the
Yellow sea. It is described as being ."»*
miles in length, has 800 piers, elevation
of roadway above low tide 05 feet; age,
800 years.
OVER 76,<;00,000 bushels of Indian
corn have been exported from the Unit
ed States since the beginning of the
year, which breaks the record by an
immense margin. Our foreign friends
are beginning to appreciate a good
thing.
VOTING by machinery is a reform
that is coming on apace. At the re

of about 8,000 inhabitants, a voting

WASHINGTON NOTES.
The statement was made in ash
ington last week on what 0
ered good authority that President Mc o
Kinley is so strongly opposed to the su- ,
gar schedule of the Senate j
tees tariff bill that he will veto the bill , -
if it comes to him with that schedule j I
11 Th' t U Priid,nt is said to t^ t Id
the amount of protection afforded the «
Sugar Trust is excessive, and that the |
enactment of th- schedule into law j
would give color to the chargelof the j
opponents of the Republican imrty that : 1
it is controlled bv trusts and monogv
lies, and that the schedule waa drafted (
with the idea of repaying fhe trusts for ,
its political contributions. j
Ever since President McKinley wat t
elected he has paid much hewl to th.- j
advice of friends representing estern ,
sentiment. While it is impossible to ,
verifv his reported utterances on the
snirar schedule, it is known that many ■
of his closest friends in Congress from «
the West are bitterly opposed to giving ,
the Sugar Trust the large bonus pro- j
posed in the Senate schedule, and that . 1
thev have told the President that to en- | (
act it into law would be almost tanta
mount to political suicide. j;
He is said to favor the sugar schedule ,
of the House bill as affording adequate 1 ■
protection to the beet and cane sugar l
producers, while giving the trust as j .
much as necessary to enable it to com
nete with the foreign refiners. j
Senator Aldrich. on the other han.!
was quoted, on the authority of another
Senator as saving that the sugar;
schedule rei>orted by him in his ultima
turn and that unless it is accepted
there will be no tariff bill. The Sena- ■
tor is in constant communication with ,
representatives of the Sugar Trust, and
that influential corporation is bringing .
every possible influence to bear upon :
him to make him adhere to this dec-is
IC> Mr. Aldrich defends his compound
schedule by asserting that the polari
scopic test alone is not a fair method of
valuing sugars. He says, for instance,
that different sugars may all show the
presence of 88 degrees of saccharine
strength and yet be of different values.
Therefore he argues that it is necessary
to have an ad valorem duty in connec
tion with the specific one. He will
make an explanation of this theory In
his statement to the Senate Thursday.
Immediately after the reading of the
journal in the Senate Monday, the fol
lowing message from President McKm
ley was presented:
'To Senate and house of Representa
tive of the United States: Official in
formation from our consuls in Cuba, es
tablishes the fact that a large number
of American citizens on the island are
in a state of destitution, suffering for
want of food and medicines. This ap
plies particularly to the rural districts
of the central and eastern parts.
"The agricultural classes have been
forced from their farms into the nearest
towns, where they are without work or
money. The local authorities of the
several towns, however, kindly, are
unable to relieve the needs of their own
people, and are altogether powerless to
help our citizens.
■ The latest report of Consul General
Lee estimates that GIKJ to 800 Americans
are without means of support. I bave
assured him that provisions would be
made at once to relieve them. To that
end I recommend that Congress make
an appropriation of not less than T-SJ,
, 000 to be immediately available for use
under the direction of the Secretary or
State.
"It is desirable that a part of the sum
which may be appropriated by Con
gress should, in the direction of the
Secretary of State, be used for trans-
Sortation of American citizens, who,
esiring to return to the United States,
are without means to do so. W llliain
! McKinlev."
In the Senate, Tuesday, Mason. Rep..
• of Illinois, made a strong plea for the
| recognition of Cuba.
THE great Philadelphia horse show—
the leading society event of the Quaker

The War in Greece.
The Greeks were defeated again
Monday, and their affairs liegan to look
desperate. The Turks demand a largi;
money indemnity, the retro-cession of
Thessaly, and the evacuation of Crete.
On Tuesday the Greeks were ag;:in
defeated by the Turks at Domokos,
and driven back along the entire line.
The Prince of Bulgaria liegan to mobi
lize his army, the German Ambassador
at Constantinople joined with the am
bassadors of the oth< r nations in re- j
questing an armistice, and orders were .
sent to the Turkish Commanders in
Thessaly to cease hostilities. For sev
eral days previous to this, Turkey sup
ported by Germany, was practically <
defying Russia, France, Austria. Great <
Britain and Italy, insisting upon the '
annexation of Thessaly, in addition to ]
a huge war indemnity, and seemingly 1
was determined to march upon Athens. J
The Ministers received official advices 1
from Sofia Tuesday announcing that 1
orders had been issued for the partial !
mobilization of the Bulgarian army,
possibly at the instigation of Russia. j
There was a hurried consultation of
the ministers. The war party was for •
further defiance, but in tne end pacific
counsels prevailed for orders were tele- ,
graphed to Edhem Pasha, the Turkish
Commander-in-Chief in Thessaly to -
cease hostilities. The piiace negotia 1
tions will now Is- undertaken in real
earnest, and the Greeks will most like
ly lie spared any fnrther humiliation.

and inquire of whom he purchased his
