His Pet Measure. BOND INVESTIGATION RESOLUTION. Senator Peffer Thinks That the Debate Will End In Another Day or Two, and Declares His Confidence That the Resolution Will Pass. Wabihjjgtok, April 20. The program for the coming week In tho house lu very unsettled. Mr. Henderson, chairman of tho judiciary committee, has given notice mac no win call up tho bankruptcy Dill ror consideration on Wcdnosday anil Thursday ,Jjut tho approach of tho end of the session has mado all members Inter ested In particular legislation vory actlvo. and from now on thcro will be much Jos tling and crowding for tho right of way. It seems probable that Mr. Henderson will bo crowded out this week at least. First of all Mr. Cannon, chairman of the appropriations committee, Is deter mined to push through tho gonoral de ficiency bill, the last of the supply bills, at the earliest moment, and as appropriation bills are privileged he can bo kept out only by a voto of tho house. As the powers In control aro desirous of furthering every thing looking to an early adjournment they aro In full sympathy with his pur poso. He does not oxpect tho deficiency bill to consume moro than a day, two days at most. Mr. Plckler, chairman of tho committee on Invalid pensions, Is very much In oar nest In his purpose to bring In tho gon eral pension bill reported from his committee, and ho Intends to press It at every opportunity. With this legislation also, tho managers of tho liouso are lu sympathy. Thoro are lu addition several contested election cases to bo disposed of. Thcro is a particular desire to dispose of tho caso from the Fifth Alabama, the re port on which unseats Judgo Cobb. The chances are thercfora against the bank ruptcy bill this week. The proceedings In tho senate probably will open with a contest for right of way between tho appropriations commlttco and tho friends of the l'etTor resolution fnr an investigation of tho recent bond sales, and upon tho result of this will de pend largely tho lino of procedure for the remainder of tho week. Senator Fettl grew, who Is In charge of tho Indian ap propriation bill, which has been only par tially considered, will make an effort to get the bill up Immediately after tho dis posal of tho routine business, and If ob jection ' Is mado will ask that tho sonnto decide by voto whothor to proceed with tho Indian bill. Ho says that ho will not con sent to further postponement except upon tho order of tho senate Itself. Other mem bers of tho committee nro disposed to tako tho samo position and to urge that noth ing shall stand in tho way of tho appro priation bills for tho prosont. Senator Peffer Is nnxlous not to antag onize the appropriation bills, but ho thinks that tho debate on the bond Investigation resolution should bo concluded lu another day or two. Ho has not yet deoldod whether to yield to tho entreaties of tho appropriation oommitteo or alio w the ques tion or allow tho question to go to a voto. Ho Is confident that his resolution will pass when a vote upon It Is reached. Ho says tho friends of tho resolution aro not disposed to spend any tlmo In making specchos on It. Thoro nro at least two or three days' work on the Indian appropriation bill The question of tho abolition of sectarian schools will still call out considerable- do bate. Senator Piatt will offer as an amend ment to tho bill the plan agreed on by tho oommitteo on Indian affairs for a general settlement of atfalrs In Indian Territory, and this will develop discussion, as will also tho provisions for tho settlement of the claims of tho Cherokcoold settlers and in regard to tho freedom of tho territory. Tho Indian bill will bo followed by tho naval appropriation bill, and that by tho sundry civil appropriation bill, though nolthor may bo reached this week. The latter has not yot been reported to tho sonato, but will bo during tho week. Thoro is apparently a growing dlsposl tlon upon tho part of soma of tho Demo cratic lenders to prolong tho session to a more distant day than has been counted on for flnul adjournment, and It Is ox poctcd that their tactics during tho week will develop to somo oxtcnt whether this is truo.

IT WAS A BIG PAY DAY HARVEST Two Prisoners Force tho Staples of Their Cell Door and Escaped One Was Arrested for Attempting to Shoot Policeman Lee. Saturday was pay day at all the P. & Tl. C. & I. Co. collieries in this district and it brought a bountiful harvest fur tho police, coustiblcs, Justices and Chief liurgess. Tho arrests for Saturday night and Sunday aggregated thirty-one. Tliero wero several fights of a desperate character, but reports thus far received do not show that anybody was seriously injured. It is evident that tho disposition on tho part of some of tho Lithuanian aud Polish pcoplo to show fight when the police want to arrest them is becoming moro pronounced each day and the olliecrs prepare for a sculilo eacli timo they uro called to u place. Satur day night Policemen Tush and Leo and Chief Ilurgess Hums were called to "tho rocks" by people who complained that tho windows of their houses had been smashed with stones by some men who were singing and dancing in a boarding houso kept by Frank Gou uskawicz. Tho officers visited tho latter place and found tho men engaged in drinking beer and making tho night pass as nosily as possible. As tho polico entered tho men jumped from their seats and picked up chairs, glasses and other handy implements and prepared for a light. They wero not quick enough, however, and tho officers closed in on them beforo they could swing the chairs, or throw tho glasses; but they louglit fur sevoral minutes beforo tho police succeeded in getting them out of tho house. Seven men wero taken into custody. Upon arrival at tho lockup Chief Tosh discovered that he had lost his watch in tlio sculilo at tho boarding house. An exhaustive search of tho premises failed to levcal it. A searcli was then mado of the men arrested and Tosh found tho watch iu tho pocket of Frank Oonaskawicz, tho boarding boss, after the latter had disclaimed all knowledge of it. When before Justico Williams this morning Gonaskawicz claimed that Chief Tosh put tlio watch In his pocket, uonaskawicz was held under $500 bail on a chargo of larceny. Most of tho men arrested by the polico paid fines mid costs and wero discharged. Those who did not do so are serving five days iu tho lockup. Tho repairs to this place cannot bo hurried too rapidly. Last night two prisoners escaped by pulling out tho staples securing the cell door. Ono of tho men was hold for firing a shot at Police man Lee during tlio raid on West Lloyd street rnday night. Tho other was held on a charge of nuisance. Neither has been re captured. Stiney Markofkki was arrested yesterday afternoon charged with being tlio man who knocked Policeman Lee senseless with a glass pitcher during tlio West Lloyd street raid. Markofskl was traced to a saloon, but the proprietor denied knowledgo of tho man. After an extended search the polico found .Markofskl hiding in a coal bin in tlio cellar under tlio saloon. Ho was put under $500 bail for trial at court. Out of tho thlrty-ono cases Justice Will iams heard 11, Chief Burgess Hums 10 aud J ustico Toomcy 10. It Is safo to say thd flnos and costs aggregated closo upon ?250. Tho most serious caso Justico Toomey had was ono in which Constable Giblou and Special Officer Alex becamo iuvolved. They went to a liouso to arrest somo men who wero charged with committing a nuisance and as they got into tho placo the occupants locked tlio doors. Alex jumped out of a window and kicked open ouo of tho doors from the outside, after which tho men sought wero arrested and taken from the placo. Mlko Iiolonis aud Joe ISetis were committed to jail in default of bail ou a charge of assault and battery made by Frank Itakis. William Clcmmcus and Timothy Ityan met yesterday and In discussing a quarrel on West Coal street in which thoy took part about two weeks ago decided to go on the mountain and settlo tho dispute They fought tour rounds beforo Policeman Goodman aud Abe. Green arrested them, but they wero too urunk to Inlllct moro Injury upon each other. Uilcf Uurgess Uurns fined them.
