In due time tho fathor arrived and the two young men made hasty departure. Ono got away safely, but tho stern parent was too quick for the other and grabbed him on tho street. Whipping out a rovolver tho fathor held it under tho young man's nose, accom panying the act with threats to raiso tho roof of tho captive's head. Tho latter shook with fright. As he glanced down tlio barrel of tbo revolver ho imagined he could seo tho deadly bullet wink with ghoulish glee at him. Three times the father of the girl swung bis mighty right arm around, giving the weapon a pinwheel motion, and again brougtit the cold muzzle close to tho unfortu nate young man's nostrils, but fortunately tlio trigger was not pulled.

SGHUYLKIMi flppwmuojjs Will Awake a Lively Discussion In the Pennsylvania Legislature. THE QUESTION OF ADJOURNMENT. It is Not Probable That the Legislators Can Leave Harrlsburg Before Saturday Next, and the Session May Continue Into Next tWeek. 1 Iltirrlsburg, June 28. The legislature will hardly get fiway before next Sat urday, although the final adjournment has been fixed for Thursday. The Isad ora agree that unless all debate Is shut off the business cannot be cleaned up in four days. The house has passed tin bulk of the appropriation bills, and the senate committee Is reporting them out as fast as they are received. Chnlr man Marshall says the house will brln out the remaining senate appropriation bills this afternoon, and then take u rest the remainder of the session. The committees have been worklmr day and night for a month paring down bills and getting- the general revenue bill In shape for final passage. Mr. Marshall does not think it will be necessary to extend the session be yond Saturday to dispose of all the legislation scheduled. Speaker Boyer believes both bottles will be ready to quit Thursday, and yet many mem bers would not be surprised If the ses sion was delayed ten days. Tho defeat by the house of the new revenue bill Increasing liquor licenses has upset the calculations of the leaders. This meas ure would raise about $2,000,000 a year, and unless it becomes a law It will be necessary for Governor Hastings to slaughter the appropriation bills to keep the public expenses for the next two years within the revenues. The bill will go to a conference committee, and may be fixed up there to meet the objections In the house. The represent atives are bent on taxing the brewis, and do not lake kindly to putting an additional tax of $100 on retailers, ex cept In classified cities, where the tax Is raised $200. The movement to cut the school ap propriatlon $600,000 a year has been abandoned. The country membora would not agree to the proposition under any circumstances. The general appropriation bill as It pased second reading appropriated $5,500,000 a year to the schools. The bill is In the hand. of the house committee, and Its mem bers will not take the responsibility of making the cut.-ir'lt'ls made It will have to be done by the senate. There will betta JlVeJy time in the house when thffoSigcf bills of the elections and lnyjfgating committees are taken up for; Amy passage. A strong combination hus Men formed to de feat these measures,' especially the Philadelphia "Lexow" committee 'bill of $60,000 and the bill bf $50,000 for flitting up Grace church. The pressure on members from the country to re duce expenses has become so great that six members of the special house committee have refused to take a cent for car fare and other personal ex penses. Such a thing has never been known before in the history of the state. These members-are Chairman Hosack, of the oleomargarine commit tee, and his colleague, Mr. Ford of Al legheny, Itlco of Bucks. Wilson of Ly coming, Pedder of Allegheny and Alex ander of Clearfield. With the exception of Mr. Ford, of Allegheny, who follows the lead of Senator Quay, these mem bers belong to the "Seventy-six," the leaders of which organized a move ment to kill all expense bills. One effect of this scheme has been the quiet paring down by the appropria tions committee of several of the ob jectionable bills. At least $20,000 or $30, 000 will be saved the state. Repeated attempts have been made In the house by Mr. Bare of Hunting don, Keator of Philadelphia and others to ammend these bills to require mem bers of the committees to file sworn statements with the auditor general that their accounts are correct, but they all have been futile. If these ex pense bills are passed and signed by the governor there will be over $150, 000 less for private charities. Many members have voted for the measures In the belief that they will be disapprov ed by the governor. They preferred to throw the responsibility on the gov ernor rather than Incur the displeasure of their colleagues, who are directly In terested, by voting against them. The poll tax and assessment bills drafted by a special committee of the state Republican committee to carry out the pledges of the campaign of 1895 and 18D0 are still In the hands o the governor. The non-political Inter ference bill was killed by the house, but will probably be reconsidered, amended and passed. The civil service bill has passed the senate and will be taken up by the house today for final passage. It will have to go back to the senate for concurrence in the amendments made by the Judicial gen eral committee. Although a radical change has been made in all four blllu, nobody doubts but that they will hi signed. The "ripper" bill and all othar schemes to give Plttuburg a new char ter have all been abandoned. The re formers of the "Smoky City" will have to wait at least two years longer for the reforms they have asked of the leg islature. The Becker "three-flfthe" confirmation bill has gone to the gov ernor, and will be disposed of this week, the ten days' limit expiring Saturday. John C. Bullitt and other prominent Philadelphia reformers will be given a hearing on Wednesday at the execu tive chamber. Should the governor veto the bill before the legislature gets away an attempt will be made to paw It over his veto. The outcome of the oleo Investiga tion will probably be the dismissal of Frank N. Moore, of Bradford, special agent of the department of agricul ture, Moore was accused by Mr. Ho sack, chairman of the Investigating: committee, ot going In league with the oleo dealers in western Pennsylvania, but this charge could not be proved, Several material witnesses failed to ap pear before the oommlttee. Mr. Moor.e believes he has been vindicated by the Investigation, and apparently Is not concerned about the story that he is to ne rcmovei. Mr. Creasy, of Columbia, tb- Demo cratic leader of the house, and Mr. Heagy, of Dnuphln, are the only mem bers of either body who have not mis sed a session since organization. TUB WYATT MLM. Adjournment on Thursday may mean Intentional failure to reach certain appro priation bills, the aggregate amounts of which might olTset the half-million that wns aimed at by the now abandoned pro ject to out the school fund. It certainly means tbe death of some investigating Committee bills which the dominant Ilepub llcnn element confessess its fear to father, among them the four hills put In by Serge-ant-atArns Wyatt for the Saunders-Bobert and Shifier-Leh election contests, the Wash ington Monument celebration and the fSO.OOO insurance scandal probo. All four Wyatt bills wore found fraud ulently on the calendar Saturday. The election contest expense bills had been re pudiated by the Elections Committee through the antagonism practically of Chairman French and Itepreseiitative Sterr. Herman and Kerr. With the two other hills they were placed ou the calendar, bearing the name ot Kepresentatlves Schrink, of Mr. wyatt's county (Schuylkill). asthousrhMr. Schrink had reported them from tlio Appro priations Committee. "Mr. Sehrink, appro priations, June 24, 1897," was tho reading on each of the four bills In the filo. Chairman Marshall, of the Appropriations Committee. declared it a crooked job, and refused to stand for it. Nows of this alarmed tho Schuylkill countlan?, Including Senator Coylo, who had been Mr. Wyatt's chief backer for tlio posi tion of Sergeant-at-Anns. The scaro snread and Mr. Schrink not only disowned tho bills, our uiuicateu mat 110 migiit tako occasion to publioly clear himself, if necessary. Mcan wbilo tbo four hills hnd passed first roadlni'. and were comfortably located for second reading, when Loader Lytic, to nrovont scanuai, succossliilly moved their recom mittal to tlio Appropriations Commltteo that had never reported them out. Ouiotlv n littlo afterwards another Schuylkill countlan, ncprescniauvo urmo, obtained unanimous cousont to introduco four bills. Thoy were tuo 1ucnt1c.11 wyatt bills that had just been recommitted, and that evening, avowing tho patomlty of Mr. Ormo instead of Mr. Schriuk, tho hills, through a genuine report uom mo committee by Chairman Marshall. woro handed up for" tho calendar, merely for peaco sake, and with no thought that they will be pAssed. Prior to this, after an alarm conference bv the Schuylkill countians and their friends. Senator Coylo had caused tho Introduction of the four bills in tho Senate, honing to induce Senator Andrews aiid otiier loaders to work them through that body so that they could bo taken up by tho House at once as Senate bills, instead of depending upon tho forlorn hopo for tho duplicates in the Uouso. rho elections comuiitteo repudiated en tirely Mr. Wyatt's demand for $2,033.53, oven after ho had cut it down to $2,200 and later to its present figure of $1,808.10. They would have allowed him $1,000. Following were tho items of Mr. Wyatt's original bill: Mileago, $357 ; extra car fare, $10 : telegraph mossagcsT etc., f0.03 ; printing subpoena notices aud card, $50 ; two doorkeepers, $00; mileage for serving subpoenas, $155.50; serv ing subpoenas on 770 wltiiess'oS. $1108.50: payment of witness fcos. $727.50 : incident als, $05 j total, $2038.53. A HOSPITAL ON rAMSB. Schuylkill county distinguished itself again through a bill backed specially by Senator Uoylo and Itepresentatlvo Schrink. appropriating $10,000 for 'maintenance of a hospital that does not exist." This evoked from Representative Stewart, of Philadelphia, tlio remark to tho House that thoro was '"nothing in tho phraseology of tho hill to as sure the Legislature that tho proposed appro priation might not givo rise to another case such as that of a Fayetto county Representa tive, who, in 1883, obtained an appropriation of $20,000 for a hospital that existed only ou rapcr, drew or caused to bo drawn the money, and served two years in jail for his clovorness." This bill, introduced by Mr. Schrink. would appropriate tho $10,000 "to tho American Hospital Association of Maha- noy township, Schuylkill county, for the fiscal year beginning Juno 11, 1898, for tlio purpose of maintenance, provided that no part of tlio money shall become available until tbo managers of said institution shall havo certified under oath to the Auditor G011er.il that they have completely furnished that building for hospital purposes with a capacity of at least 25 beds and equipped tho same with tlio necessary surgical implements, and that tho said furnishing aud implements have beeu paid for by privato subscription, and that no part of this appropriation will bo used for payment of auy furnishing or im plements. Mr. Schrink appealed to tho Houso to pass tho bill ou second reading, on promise to furnish moro information when it camo up for final passage Ho said it was simply a picco of spito work to attempt to kill the hill. The bill went through by a vote of 103 to 35. Xelswemter's, Cor. Main and Coal Sts. Oyster soup, freo, to-night. Hot lunch to-morrow morning. Meals served at all hours. Assisted in ISxcrclsos.

At about two o'clock this morning Watch man Martin O'Hara was ou Centre street, west of Chestnut, when he observed five young men acting in a Buspicious manner in front of Matt. Yanchaltis, which is lo cated ou Centre street and about midway between West street and Chestnut street. O'Hara concluded that there was a rob bery on foot aud awaited developments. Three of tho gang forced open the collar doors and descended under the saloon. Two remained outside, to stand watch. O'Hara waited until he saw a light in tlio cellar and then ho mado a rush.
