abilities of the near future. Although such
projects liave becu a toplo of local discussion

promise to the town.

silk mill Industries at Patterson, N. J., was
in town this afternoon Vflth a letter of In

llarrisburg, Feb. 1. The sixteenth fruit
less ballot to dissolve the Senatorial dead
lock was made by the joint body to-day.
As predicted in this correspondence of yester
day there was no quorum present, and there
will be none on Monday. Senator Quay re
ceived 17 votes as a result of to-day's ballot,
Jenks 3 and Stewart 7.
There Is no new features In the Srnatorisl
fight. A prominent Quay leader said to-day
that tbe senior Senator will either be re
elected or else be wilt name his successor in
order to bring peace to tbe party. This
same authority Is responsible for the state
ment that no man who now figures as a
candidate far Senator in the balloting, with
tho exception of Quay, will be tho next
Senator from Pennsylvania, and that no man
will be named who is not In full accord with
the present dominant olement of tbe party,
whether It he Chris. Magee or another.
From these remarks It Is implied that tbe
Quay people have under consideration the
concentration of their strength on anotbtr
candidate Should the McCarrell bill fail of
passage in the House, a coup of that nature
is looked for.
There Is one remarkable feature In connec

It was also decided tbat the Board at the

a large one, and a fence will entail no small

Aliened Tlrlbery In Lebanon County.
Harrlsburg, Feb. 4. The managers
of Senator Quay's canvass for re-elec
tion last night gave out an affidavit
signed by W. K. Lelnlnger, a Philadel
phia detective, charging: certain per
sons Interested In the candidacy of Dr.
Weiss, the anti-Quay candidate for
senator In Lebanon county, with fur
nishing money and whiskey to voters.
Lelnlnger alleges that he was paid $75
by George Woower, of Lebanon, with
the Instructions to use the money
among the voters, and that Woomer
admitted -to the nlTlant that he had
furnished money and whisky to po
litical workers to Influence voters In
favor of 'Dr. Weiss. The Quay man
agers also furnished an aflldavlt from
James Graham, of Lebanon, who al
leges that 15. Strauss, of Philadelphia,
offered him $160 to use his Influence for
Dr. Weiss.
Fatal Una Kxptoslon In I'fttsbnrsr.
Pittsburg, Feb. 4. A terrible gas ex
plosion occurred on Sycamore street,
Etna, yesterday, completely demolish
ing the brick residence of Joseph
Ackerman. There Is nothing left of the
building, which was blown to atoms.
One woman was killed and Ave per
sons Injured. The dead woman is Mrs.
Weaver. The Injured are: Joseph
Ackerman, probably boyi legs broken;
Mrs. Joseph Ackerman, Injured Inter
nally and bruised; two young women,
daughters of the Ackermans, so badly
crushed that one may die. The ex
plosion was caused by a gas leak In
the cellar. Ackehman was called from
his saloon across the street to Inves
tigate. He went Into the cellar, lighted
a match, and the explosion followed,
to equal the acrobatic feats of lying Indulged
iu ujr luoiuerarj oureaus ot me contending
forces. The real fact is there is nothing new
here to record, and there will be nothing
until the break comes, If It ever does.
On Wednesday it was given out that a son
sation was to be sprung during the ballot of
that day ; then it was said owuing to certain
contingencies the Magee coup was to be post
poned for a few days, but to show tbe Quay
people what could be done a lot of his sup
porters were to bo palled away. This, too,
failed owning to the absence of the unnamed
Senator who was to do the "flop" act. Now
it is said the Senator, unnamed, will be back
on Tuesday ready to flop, and will be Joined
in this acrobatic feat by Scott and Yates, of
Philadelphia. After that, Hersh and Stulb
are to take tho dive, and after that Acker
man, If be is well enough to be here, and
Williams, will cut loose. To these assertions
the Quay men reply that when the jumping
begins, it will be seen that there are others.
The newspaper correspondents are not to
be blamed for these rumors. .They are given
out by the two Republican factions. The
situation Is snch tbat they would be com
pelled to send nothing to their papers, or else
send matter tbat does not ring true.
ITWAS HER SON.
The Buffalo Victim a Former Resident of I
DrowutTllle.
On the 30th ult. the Hebald published In
its telegraphic news Items a despatch from
Buualo stating that a man was found
drowned in the harbor of tbat city and tbat
the remains had been identified as those of
William Dormer, a deckhand.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Mary Dormer, an
aged widow of Brownsville, called at the
Herald ofilce and stated that the victim was
ber son, who left borne eleven years ago for
Vancouver Island, British Columbia. He
was last beard from six years ago, when be
wrote home that he intended to leave Van
couverand start South.
Mrs. Dormer is very anxious to ascertain
what disposition has been made of the re
mains, which she is positive are those of ber
son. She says she sent a communication to
the coroner of Buffalo concerning the matter,
but received no answer, and hopes tbat this
publication will be more effective when
brought to tho attention of the Buffalo au
thorities, which will be done.

The Audience Well Fleaaeil.
The entertainment given in Ferguson's
theatre last evening, under the direction of
Misses Anna L. Duukel and Nell Ames
Ilorr, was witnessed by a large and apprecia
tive audience. Over one hundred Shenan
doah young people took part, and the credit
able manner In which each rendered their
parts reflects much credit upon tbe perform
ers and tbe directresses. After an overture
by Miss Hobert, fifty little girls, all dressed
in white, presented a pretty scene.
The Shenandoah Mandolin and Guitar
Club rendered two selections, which were
well received. Part second opened with tbe
"Old Maids' Convention" aud the proceed
ings of that body of old spinsters brought
forth many hearty laughs, Guy C. Helper
assumed the character of "Prof. Make
Over" very creditably. Those who deserve
special mention were Millie Zimmerman,
violin solo; Jeuuie Goldln, recitation; Marie
Biddle, guitar solo ; Edith M. Morgan,
soprano solo; aud Misses Jennie Knelly,
Lavere Robbins, Ella Franey, Minnie
Dabb and Millie Zimmerman, as tbe
five giddy girls. Tbe recitation of
Miss Ilorr was delivered in her well known
style, and she was compellod to respond to
an enchore. Miss Dunkel, tbe delsortean
exponent, again demonstrated ber ability in
this respect. The entertainment concluded
with statue poses, under tho rays of a cal
cium light, and this was one of tbe pleasing
features. The entertainment as a whole was
vory creditable to the young people who par
ticipated. ,

In both is of a superior quality. The former
varies from ten to fourteen feet in thickness,
while the latter runs at an average of about
seven feet. The coal crops out close to tbe
surface aud has a dip of about 7 degrees.
The lower dip was found, by means of a bore
hole at a depth of 875 feet, The work of

Washington, Feb. 4. The purpose of
the president to terminate the unsatis
factory state of affairs that has ex
isted for some time as the result ot
the numerous charges and counter
charges and Interviews respecting the
character of the army beef by insti
tuting a formal Inquiry Into these
matters and endeavoring to place the
responsibility where lt belongs, was
made known yesterday. This Inquiry
will not be undertaken before the com
mission to Investigate the conduct of
the war has made Its reDort to the
president.
The scope of this new Inquiry has
not been defined, but It certainly will
embrace the allegations made by Gen
eral Miles as to the character of the
army supplies and will Involve that
olflctir to the extent that he must make
these charges good, and to that degree
will be on trial himself In a preliminary'
manner. Should the charges be found
well established a heavy responsibility
would be placed upon the packers and
persons concerned In the meat Inspec
tions and perhaps others. Should they
fall unsuported General Miles may be
obliged to answer to a court martial
for reflecting upon the character of
other olllcers.
There are two methods by which such
an Investigation may be conducted, ac
cording to established military usage.
The first Is by the appointment of what
is known as an officers' or lnspeotlon
board. In the former case It would be
necessary to name some officer who Is
to be the subject of Investigation. In
the latter the board Is charged simply
to Inquire Into a state of facts or al
leged facts, without reference to any
particular persons, and to place re
SDonslblllty. If Dosslble. for anvthlne
of which complaint is made. Their can give you perfect satisfaction.
nnaings mav serve as tne oasis ror a
court martial quite as effectively aa the
findings ot a court of Inquiry, and has
some advantages In that lt does not
begin with the presumption of a court
ot Inquiry.
Where a court of Inquiry Is ordered
It Is said there Is conveyed a distinct
reflection upon the ofllcer named. Be
cause of this, when the navy depart
ment requested the war department to
order a court of Inquiry to Investigate
the circumstances attending the kill- !
lng of a number of Spanish prisoners
on board the Harvard the latter Instead
ordered an Inspection board, consider
ing that the ordering of the court of In
quiry might be looked upon as a pre
decision against our troops. Such
officers' boards are frequently ordered
to tlx responsibility for the loss or dam
age of stores, and several of them
have been appointed during the war to
look Into the loss of n eats, notably in
the case of that shipped to Porto Rico
and returned to Montauk Point. Like
a court of Inquiry, these boards re
turn statements of facts developed by
them upon which the superior authori
ties can act.
It is not possible at present to learn
In which direction the president leans,
but he has been In conference on the
subject with the secretary of war and
the attorney general, and the matter
has been discussed In the cabinet to
some extent. As before stated, how
ever, no action Is to be taken on either
plan until the report of the war In
vestigating commission Is submitted.
Up to the close of the day General
Miles positively declined to discuss In
any manner the events of the dav so
far as they relate to himself, or to dis
cuss any statements contained In any
of the Interviews attributed to him. It
may be said of these Interviews that
while it Is conceivable they might fig
ure, they would not do so of necessity.
for the matters to be first looked Into
are those connected with the character
of the army beef.
