AT THE STATE CAPITAL.
WEEK'S WORK OF THE LEGISLA
TURE REVIEWED BY NISSLEY.
Building of a New Capitol In Still the
Leading Question Before the Law
make m--Dr. Swallow'tt Charges May
Bring Out Intide History.
Ilarrisburg, Pa., March 6, 1897.
The question that is causing the most
concern at present, of course, is tho
building of a new cnpitol. The manner
of providing revenue is tire main point
involved. Chairman Marshall, of the
appropriation coininitteee, has prepared
an estimate of tho revenues available,
together with the sums of money that
have been asked for charities and for
the ordinary running expenses of the
commonwealth. He finds that the total
available revenue for 1898 and 1899 is
$19,000,000, and that the total amount of
money asked for in the appropriation
bills presented up to date amounts to
$28,501,720. How to make theso two
extremes meet is the problem that con
fronts the legislature. In the estimates
of money asked no reference is made to
to the cost of a new capitol, which will
also have to coine from somewhere.
Among tho most prominent Penusyl
vanians who confered with the gover
nor, last week, was Andrew Carnegie,
the millionaire, of Pittsburg. He said
lie thought it too bad that a great state
like ours was not able to borrow a dol
lar to meet such an emergency as the
destruction of its capital, but slated
that he was ready to advance a portion
of the money needed to put up the build
ings. Governor Hastings said there
were many others who volunteered to
do the same thing Mr. Carnegie offered,
but that lie had some plans to offer
which may render a call upon the citi
zens of the state unnecessary. Ooyer
nor Hastings is being made the subject
of very many complimuutury remarks,
at present, for the way he is proceeding
in tlie matter.
Rev. Dr. S. C. Swallow, editor of the
Pennsylvania Methodist, in this city, in
his paper last week made serious charges
against a number of stato officials. In
the same article he proposed that a
number of citizens, and not legislators
or state officials, be appointed to investi
gate these charges. The preacher-editor
very likely did not expect that his arti
cle would create such a furore as it did.
The charges of corruption were sweep
ing. and tho state officials at once took
the matter up. Dr. Swallow claimed
that tho capitol lire was not purely acci
dental, and lie was called before the
legislative investigation committee to
testify. This he refused to do until he
consulted his informant. A hearing
was held and the editor held for court.
Tho officials have retained eminent
counsel, and it is understood Dr. Swal
low will not be far behind with brilliant
legal lights. This suit, I believe, will
investigate. If tho anti-Quayites are
back of Dr. Swallow, they have kept it
very quiet so far, but at any rate there
will be strong power brought to assist
Dr. Swallow in his defense. This trial
will go farther towards clearing up the
cloud of dishonesty that is constantly
being hoard about public officials than
all the investigations that will bo held
during tho session.
Another hearing in the state treasury
investigation was held last Thursday.
State Treasurer Haywood, Cashier Hen
ry C. Greenawalt and Assistant Cashier
T. Stewart Price wero the only wit
nesses called. Nothing new was learned
from their testimony.
The burning of the capitol has caused
tho correspondence of tho legislators to
drop off at least one-half The con
stituent doubtless imagines that his able
member or senator is sitting on a store
box while attending sessions since the
fire and is not prepared to answer much
correspondence. This is the only reason
I can ascribe, for it.
The congressional apportionment bill
was brought out of committee on Thurs
day. The bill gives Pittsburg and
Philadelphia an additional congressman.
This bill will likely have a hard time
getting through with chances greatly
against It. Senators Critcbfiold, Coyle
and Merrick wero appointed by the
senate to investigate tho affairs of the
dairy and food commission. A bill
creating a state railway commission was
introduced in the bourse. It gives tho
government direct supervision over all
railroads and provides for a board of
three commissioners who shall have
practical experience in railroad business.
It will, of course, not. become a law.
The bill increasing the minimum
school term to seven months has passed
second reading in the house. The thea
tre hat bill has been killed in the house.
The first appropriation bill reported
this session has been brought out of
committee. It appropriates over 54.000
to pay the expenses of the Heller-Lau
bach senatorial contest. This is an old
bill of last session. A bill has been pre
sented fixing the rates of telephones.
The bills prepared by the State Hoard of
Health have been presented. The first
provides for pure milk, the second for
county officers of health and the third
on water supply, drainage and sewerage.
Representative Charles E. Vorhees is

adjourn. lie Ims a resolution to pass
that will fix May 1 as the date for the
legislature to adjourn. It is not likely
that the resolution will pass or that the
legislature will get away before June.
Senator Coyle, of Schuylkill, has pre
sented a bill requiring railways in the
commonwealth over 100 miles in length
shall keep for sale railway tickets for
the accommodation of its patrons, con
sisting of 2.000 miles coupons at the price
of S4O each, making the rate two cents
per mile.
Among the bills that passed the
senate finally were acts making it the
duty of various county ollicials to fur
nish on demand information from
their respective offices to the heads of
any department of the state govern
ment; prohibiting any person from
falsely representing himself to bo or
falsely assuming to act as a detective
or any elective or appointive officer:
making it a misdemeanor for persons to
obtain or attempt to obtain positions of
trust by fraud; regulating and making
certified copies of records and tran
! scripts, of proceedings before magis
trates, justices of the peace, aldermen,
burgesses and courts of inferior juris
diction evidence in courts of record.
The William's resolution, which pro
vides that all material for the new enpi
tol shall be purchased in Pennsylvania,
was vetoed by Governor Hastings. He
thinks tho resolution is sectional and
un-Auierican in spirit. He says the
product of our mines find a market in
every stato in the union, and it wouid
be unfair to exclude the citizens of other
states from competing with us for our
public work. Nissley.
Anthracite Coal Trude.
The anthracite coal trade is marked
by the usual uneasiness that precedes the
announcement of spring prices. Dealers
hold ofT and are taking tho smallest
possible quantities of coal, in some cases
two retailers clubbing together in the
purchase of a small cargo. Individual
operators are cutting prices 25 cents a
ton and some of the companies afo doing
the same thing. The New York trade is
waiting for the announcement of spring
prices, which is expected the later part
of the month.
Tho present determination of the
companies is to open at the July circu
lar at present in existence, which is
basod on stove coal at $4.25 in Now York
harbor, and tho present determination
of the trade is that in that event to buy
as little as possible until summer comes,
when the ruin in the soft coal trado will
bo felt by the anthracite producers.
Probably, howover, dealers would not
buy much even if the opening prices
were fixed as low as 83.50, so that in any
event dullness may be expected for some
time.
In the Philadelphia market Individual
operators are cutting prices freely and
concessions of 20 and 25 cents are re
ported, although the companies are
holding up prices very well. Tho out
put for March lias been fixed at 2,500,000
tons.
The Remains Laid at Ront.
Tho remains of the late I)r. Joseph P.
Gallagher were followed to St. Ann's
church on Saturday morning by a largo
number of friends and relatives, who
had gathered to pay their last respects
to tho young man. At tho church a
requiem mass was read by Father Mack,
who also preached an eloquent sermon
on the lifa and character of tho deceased
and tho lesson taught by his early death.
The entire congregation was deeply
moved by the priest's eulogy.
Tho pall-bearers were as follows: Dr.

The following data has been taken
from the advance sheets of the report
made by Mine Inspector Davis for 1806
to tho department of internal affairs:
Tho total production of the district
was 5,872,427 tons, a decrease of 718,539
tons as compared with 1895. Total ship
ment, 5,042,433.03 tons.
Persons employed in district, 17,568.
Average number of days worked, 179.8.
compared with 195.9 days in 1895,
showing a decrease of 16.1 days.
Total number of casualities was 133;
fatal 42, non-fatal 91, 20 widows, 38
orphans.
Tho quantity of coal mined per fatal
accident was 139,819 tons. The number
of tons produced per employe was 332.02.
The number of kegs of powder used
was 100,282 or 2,507,075 pounds.
The quantity of dynamite used wa*
775,936 pounds, making the total quan
tity of soda powder and dynamito con
sumed in mines and stripping work of
tliis district 3,293,011 pounds.
A perusal of the records for the past
live years shows tho total production of
coal was 30,677,802 tons. The ship

duced with remarkable accuracy.
Lost Ills First Prisoner.
The first arrest made by Officer Chas.
Poleneczky took place late last night at
Centre and Carbon streets. The pris
oner was an out-of-town young man
who was slightly under the intluunce,
and was charged with disorderly con
duct. It appears that he became sepa
rated from a companion during the even
ing, and in looking for him went from
one saloon door to another endeavoring
to obtain admittance. The officer saw
him at tiiis work and marched him to
the Front street hotel.
Burgess Gallagher was summoned
and gave the accused man a hearing.
He was adjudged guilty and sentenced
to pay #5 line or spend five days In jail.
Circumstances compelled him to choose
the latter, but while en route from the
court room to the lockup he changed
his mind and darted frotn the officer like
a bird. Charles gave chase, but the lad
was too spry and made his escape.
After receiving a reprimand from the
burgess, the policeman vowed that fu
ture prisoners will wear bracelets from
the time of their arrest until they are
placed behind the bars.
The LunHford I'ustotttce.
The appointment of Editor Maloy as
postmaster of Lansford failed through
lack of time. After passing confirma
tion an appuintment must remain in the
senate's jurisdiction until two more
executive sessions are held. Only one
such session was held before adjourn
ment after Maloy's name was approved,
consequently the nomination, with many
others, became null and void. It was
no fault of Mr. Maloy and his friends
that, he failed, but fate was against
them.
Counterfeits™ .Sentenced.
In the United States district court at
Philadelphia last week Judge Butler
sentenced Charles Brobst, of Hazleton,
who was recently convicted of making
#1() gold pieces, to #IOO line and three
years imprisonment in the Eastern peni
tentiary. Tereta Balliet, who was as
sociated with Brobst in passing the
bogus money in Pottsville and who was
also convicted, was sentenced to six
months in the county prison and #SO fine.
