Accident at "A Festival.

Accident at n Festival. -"
NEW YORK, June 24.-During a
strawberry festival in church at Sy-
racuse last evening, the floor gave way
precipitating several hundred people
to the ground, when the roof fell in
and covered them. Thirteen dead
bodies have been taken out. Two
hundred are badly injured and several
fatally.
Adjournment of Congress.
WASHINGTON, June "a Congress
adjourned yesterday afternoon. The
tariff bill was postponed. That for
the admission of New Mexico and Col
orado was laid aside. The bill relat-
ing to the Judiciary of Utah was passed
with amendments which secure vir-
tual victory to the Mormons. There
was great rejoicing at Salt Lake last
night on the reception of the news of
its passage as amended. Sargent OPP
posed its passage Oh the ground that it
would cause civil war. Most Of the
amendments were his,
Terrible Accident.
SYRACUSE IN. ", June 2i.-Four-
teen dead bodies have been recovered
from the ruins of the Central Baptist
Church, the floor of which fell last
night during a festival. Of the injured
two died to-day and others not eX-
pected to live while several will be
crippled for life. The cause of the dis
aster was the defective construction of
the building. The supporting trusSes
were composed of planks spiked to"

Why no Report was Made.
WASHINGTON, June 24.-The Com
mittee on Pacific Railroads did not
submit to the House their majority
report adverse to LuttrelPs resolution
for an investigation of the Contract
and Finance Company. The Chair
man, Sawyer, assigns as q reason that
there was no opportunity to make a
report, which statement is untrue.
The real reason was the knowledge of
the corruptionists that the House
would have rejected the majority re-
port and and the one which the minor
ltv had prepared, ordering an investi-
CATION. Under Parliamentary law,
no minority report could be made
until majority report had been pre-
sented.
Harmer Re.nOminated.
PHILADELPHIA, June 24.-Harmer
has been renominated for Congress by
the Republicans of the Fifth District.
His opponent was Leonard Meyers,
the present Congressman from the
Third District.

OUR exchanges express but one
opinion on the NAPTHALY-DE YOUNG
shooting affair, which occurred in San
Francisco last week, and that is I'M
feigned regret that both parties were
not carried from the street to their
homes in boxes, and from thence to
Lone Mountain. The fellows are en-
joying treat rarely accorded to NOR
tals-reading their obituaries before
they die. If both had been killed, in
place of regret that they still live the
un. versal verdict would have been

SARGENT's efforts for an appropria-
ton to improve Oakland harbor is
likely to be crowned with success. So
far as Oakland is concerned, the
scheme has our appreciation, but it
looks very much like another transfer
OF the peoples money to the pockets OF
the Central Pacific Cailroad Company.

people of the Valley can rest assured
that the dog in the manger policy

which contains the item of news that
the Valley railroad has purchased the
franchises of the Shenandoah Valley
railroad, by which the Valley company
acquires the right to extend their road
to the Tennessee line The charter of
the Shenandoah road grants the right
to construct a railroad from the town
of Harper's Ferry, in the county of
Jsfferson, or some other point on the
Potomac river through the counties of
Warren, Page, Rockingham and Au-
gusta. to a point on the southern
boundary of the State of Virginia, be-
tween Bristol Goodson and the western
line ofthe State of Virginia, said point
to be selected by the said company.
"This statement is from very good
authority, and its correctness is render
ed the more probable as Mr.. w Gar
ret, the president of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad, is now in England.
