Trouble llrewlng Over tlie Erection of
the New State Huu*e—Summary of the
11111 M That Have Panned—New Measures
Introduced.
Harrisburg, Pa., February 2d, 1897.
The erection of the new capitol build
ing is going to create trouble befon
long. The row may break out this wee!
if all signs do not fail. The cause of tlx
trouble lies in who shall have charge ot
the erection of the building. Governor
Hastings believes that the commission
ers of public buildings should superin
tend the work. The commission b
composed of the governor, auditor gen
eral and state treasurer. It was create<
for purposes of this kind and natural!}
would lie the proper authority to pro
ceed with tho work. The legislator
think differently and claim the priviiogi
of erecting the now structure.
A bill lias been prepared and will like
ly be introduced tills week, creating
commision to take charge of the build
ing. Should this be dune, trouble wil
follow. It provides that the cominissioi
shall consist of the ten members of tlx
senate committee on public building.-
and .grounds; ten of the twenty-fivi
members of the same committee in tlx
house; Speaker lloyer; President pn
tern. McCarrell and and tho three mem
bers of the commissioners of public
buildings.
The governor is opposed to this plai
and may havo have something to sat
about it in a special message which !x
is to present to the legislature wltliii
tho next few days. The members of tlx
house are very anxious to assume charge
of tho work and can scarcely wait un
til the preliminary plans have been
completed.
At the Republican convention ii
August, 1895, when Senator Quay ha<
liis memorable fight with the combine,
he promised a number of reform meas
ures and at contests since lie repeated
these promises. Senator Penrose
also loath to resign on account of those
measures. The legislature has now
been in session nearly two months aix.
not a word lias been heard of thesu bills.
If Senator Quay wants to keep his won.
ho should hurry them along. If then
wus any sincerity in his promises tlx
bills should be forthcoming.
Representative Ilosack, of Pittsburg,
has created the first big sensation of tlx
legislature, by making a startling aix
sweeping charge against the manage
ment of the dairy and food commission,
especially the special agent, Frank V
Moore, located at Pittsburg. Hosack
has offered a resolution, asking for ai.
investigation into this department, aix
it was passed. It is claimed that 500,-
000 pounds of oleomargarine are sold ii
Pittsburg every month. Few dealer
have over been prosecuted and Moore
seems to be on very friendly terms with
them. # lt is also claimed that it cosh
the dealer one cent a pound to bo allow
ed to put it on tho market. It is claim
ed that Moore got this money.
The first hearing in tho investigation
of tho state treasury and auditor gener
al's department was held on Thursday.
State Treasurer Haywood was tho on ly
witness called. A number of question.-
weru asked which were of no importance
whatever. Nothing new was Icarnet.
and very little is likely to bo. This in
vestigation is a first-class farce from be
ginning to end. About the only benlit
the state may flerivo from this investi
gation will be the passage of a bill com
pelling banks to pay interest on state
deposits.
Another invoice bills was received
in the house, a majority of which asked
for appropriations. Representative
Stewart presented tho fisli bill us pre
pared by tho state fish commission. A
good bill presented is this: "To punish
and prevent the loan, gift, sale or dis
tribution of indecent and immoral writ
ings, printings, pictures, photographs
or representations of immoral character
and of all articles, drugs, receipts, etc.,
for unlawful uses, and also to provent
the advertisuicnt, exhibition or publiea
catiou of tiie same and to authorize the
seizure and destruction of all such mat
ter." Another bill provides for discon
tinuing the Legislative Record. This costs j
the state#3o,oooevery session. Another 1
fixes the number of schools in eacli dis
trict as tho basis of distribution of the
public school appropriation.
These bills passed second reading in
the house: To prohibit the manufacture
or sale of paper wrapper cigarettes or
cigarette paper. Prohibiting tho wear
ing of hats, bonnets or other coverings
for the head, which will obstruct tho
view at any public performance or en
tertainment to which an admission feo
is charged. Making valid tho bonds or
other obligations issued since April 18,
1895, by municipalities or incorporated
districts witli tho consent of the electors,
in amounts in excess of two per cent and
less than sevon per cent of the assessed
valuation of taxable property in such in
corporated district.
These bills passed tho house finally:
Amending the act of April 20, 1874,
abolishing the restriction that the tax
levied to pay municipal indebtedness
hall be equal to eight per cent of the
amount of such increased debt and pro
viding for the method of assessing and
ievying a tax for the payment of the
principle and interest when the bonds
oecome due and the forui of statement
to bo liled.
The bill relating to tax collectors in
ooroughs, making tliom ineligible to re
election for the next succeeding term,
and providing for the making by them
f monthly reports to borough councils,
•vas discussed at length aud then sent
back to committee.
A bill has been introduced in the
senate prohibiting hypnotism; one on
blackmailing; one on relieving tenants
from paying rent after building is ren
lered unlit by fire; prohibiting company
stores; one to prevent employers of labor
from discriminating against labor or
ganizations. Niisley.
Want Judge**' Day Abolished.
From the Weatlierly Herald.
The annual meeting of election judges
u tho Middle Coal Field poor district,
it the almshouse in Lowrytown, took
dace on Tuesday. This farce costs the
ax payers of tho district over #SOO an
mally, and is a proceeding entirely un
iccessary. Tho returns from each dis
trict at every election of a poor director
ire made at the prothonotary's office of
arbon county, and there need be no
extra count made at the poor house.
The directors of the district cannot
discontinue this meeting unless the law
•ailing for same bo annulled. It may
not bo generally known, but a special
aw of this state makes tho return judge
ay necessary. This can ho easily re
pealed if tho legislator from Carbon
.vill ask for its repeal. No sane person
would want to oppose the bill.
When the Middle Coal Field Poor
dstrict was first organized, there wore
only seven election districts included,
but these have grown until now thoy
lumber seventy-one.• One judge from
each district was on hand last Tuesday.
Some of them brought a friend and some
two, others were accompanied by their
families. The mileage and days wages I
•or the judges was #398, while the extra
help in house, preparing meals, extra
,earns and cost of extra victuals, would
bring the bill to #SOO and over.
BerlUM Accident ut a \Y< tiding.
Stanley Kalinoski and Miss Annie
Kulakovan, both of Jcddo, were married
•n Saturday, and all went well until late
in the afternoon, when the happy pair
started off to enjov a short drive before j
the evening's exorcises began. When
the carriage was departing one of the ,
quests pulled a revolver and fired asa- j
lite. lie was rather reckless in hand
ing the gun, and one of tho bullets!
found a resting place in tho body of
Simon FiLnsiky. The injured man was
taken to Hazleton hospital for treat- j
uent.
There is some doubt as to who did the j
-hooting. Two men named Smith and
Loskey have been arrested. One v was
taken before Squire Shovliu and placed
under #I,OOO bail and the other was ar
rested by Hazleton officers. Tho injured
nan is expected to recover.
Anthracite Coal Trade.
The anthracite coal trade is beginning
to show signs of weakness. The demand
is less than it was expected to bo at. l
this time, due not only to a reduced
consumption but to the policy of large i
dealers who are postponing purchases
with the idea that prices will be lower ;
x month hence. There is little doubt
that* some of tho New York companies
are cutting prices. The very best evi
dence that cutting is going on is tho
fact that tho companies holding to tlie
circular are getting no business, while
other companies arc moving nearly all
their output.
There will be no activity in tho trade
until tho spring prices are fixed, about
tho middle of next month.

arm. The young man was arrested by

turbing tho peace and at a hearing was

Tut H Combustible in His Pipe.
A decidedly peculiar accident occur
red in Luzerne Tuesday evening. It,
happened in the building where the
band rehearses. Joseph Williams, one
of the members of the hand, has an im
portant part to perforin in one of the
band's favorite selections. It is a mar
tial piece and in order to make it realis
tic Joseph explodes a ritle. For this
purpose ho keeps a stock of cartridges
on hand, which he carries in one of his
pockets. Tuesday evening he thought
he would like a smoke, and in pursu
ance of his desire he brought forth his
pipe and proceeded to take some tobacco
from his pocket.
In the same pocket in which lie carries
his tobacco wore several cartridges and.
as ill-luck would have it, one of the cart
ridges got mixed up with the weed and
formed a component part in the filling
of the pipe. Joseph quietly lighted uj
and settled down to a comfortable
smoke. He way puffing away screnh
when a loud "bang" was heard. Joseph
jumped several fpet in the air and frag
ments of pipe were scattered promiscu
ously about the room.
The other members of the band who
were present were as much startled as
Williams, and for a time pandemonium
reigned. Several minutes passed before
the strange explosion could he account
ed for. Strangely enough Williams
escaped with slight Injury.
