Changing the Pan Handle Tracks

The Columbus Statesman of Saturday
says: at is very probable that the
gauge of the Pan Handle will be changed
within few months, and probably all
the lines controlled by the Pennsylvania
Company. 1t is understood that the
gauge will be made two-thirds of an
inch narrower than it is st present, so as
TO be uniform with thst of the Pennsyl-
vsnis Central, and thus dispense with
the use Of compromise trucks"

quite literary curiosity. 1t Is not got
ten up for making money, and it contsins
no notice of the author or place OF pub

an ingenious imitation of scriptura style,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The plan for
the proper determination of the electoral
vote was presented in bot houses to-day.

conversation in all circles. The mem-
bers OF the joint committee, now that

that the bill and report were drawn

making such suggestions as seemed pro-

~ DEMOCRATS IN CAUCUS. = on
Immediately after the adjournment of
the House to-day a caucus of the demo-
cratic members was called, and about
one hundred and twenty-five members
were present when chairman Lamar
called the caucus to order. 1t was ex-
planned that the purpose in calling the
democratic members together was that
members Of the joint committee might
explain the features of the bill proposed,
MI. Payne, the chairman then. decided
to give narration of tbs deliberations
of the committee, and was followed by
Mr.. Hunton, these gentlemen occupying
nearly the entire hour. Speaker Randall
remarked that the bill was admirable in
many of its features, but it did not ap-
pear to him explicit enough as to the
manner in which the testimony before
the commission ought to be taken. That
which had already been taken by the
House committee ought to be accepted
by the commission, and an amendment
making this obligatory seemed necessary
to perfect the bill. Mr.. Landers, Of
Ind, asked Mr.. Hunton whether the op-
position of Senator Morton was genuine.
Hunton replied that Morton was so foxy
in his ways that it was impossible to give
positive information on that point, but
SO far as he could Judge the opposition
of Senator Morton was downright easn-
est. Amidst much merriment Mr.. Lam
ders replied that if it could be definitely
ascertained that Morton was against the
bill it would go far towards making it
acceptable to the democracy, at least of
Indiana.
Without coming to any conclusion or
committing the members to any resolu-
tion of support, the caucus adjourned at
8 O'Clock.
