CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.

MAY 2.-Mr. Farley called attention to
the large number of nominations awaiting
action, and moved an executive session. He
said petitions were daily coming from Califor
mia asking for the consideration of the Chi
nese treaty, and other important matters.
\ debate ensued between Messrs. Dawes and
Farley, the Chinese question receiving con-
siderable attention. Senator Beck said the
Republicans had not dared to go into execu
tive session because of divisions in the party
on important nominations. The usual motion
to go into executive session was defeated.
MAY 3.-NIr. Davis, of West Virginia. took
the floor with speech upon the debt ques-
ton between the virgfnias. promising his re-
marks with an expression of regret that the
speech made by the Senators from Virginia
and Ohio (Mahone and Shefmanl should have
compelled him to discuss in this chamber
ter The debt question in Virginia had never
been made a political one, and he regretted
that the Republican Senators should make
statements rejecting upon the action OF the
Democrats of that State on thu question. Mr..
Davis gave history of the debt complication,
and said the Virginias and their people will
pay their debts, and the sooner the better.
He hoped the two States would soon come to-
gether and settle the question
MAY 4.-The Senate opened with the
formal announcement from Mr. Dawes that
the fight should go steadily on as before. He
arraigned the Democratic party as Obstruc-
tionists, who had paralyZed the efforts of the
majority of the Senate to complete its organ
ization. He declared the Democratic minority
revolutionary, but at the close of his remarks
Mr.. Dawes said it would not do for the Re-
puhlicans to neglect their duty elsewhere
while they were II sisting the minority. Rec
ognizing the necessity of this. he would move
to drop the fight for a time and attend to 9th.
er pressing business. This created consider
able amusement the floor and in the
galleries, even Republican Senators not re-
framing from smile at the way the question
was finally put There was some little SPAR
ing between Pendleton, Dawes and Beck, and
the motion for an executive session was car
ried unanimously. The executive session
was very dull indeed, being mostly devoted to
the reference of nominate ons and the Chi
nese treaties. The following were confirmed
by unanimous consent: Robert Hit. Illinois,
Assistant Secretary of STATE; Hiram Price,
Iowa, Commissioner of Indian Affairs; Alfred
NJ Jones, United States Marshal, Northern
District Illinois; Sanford A. Hudson, Wiscon-
sin, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of

A Terrible Death.

ArRULY horrible incident is reported in the
vienese papers as having recently taken
place in the great paper-mill of Messrs. Gel
lerth & Fuerth, at Pilsen. 1t having been re-
ported to the manager of that institution that
the great steam boiler was foul and the fur
naces required cleaning. he caused the fires to
be extinguished and employed n gang Of
workmen TO execute the neces sary cleansing
operations. One of the laborcrs, n powerful
young fellow OF nineteen, named Anthony
Kaczander, after toiling hard at his share OF
the job for scveral consecutive hours, lay
down in the huge airpipe, running under tho
main furnace, intending to snatch a few mo-
mcnts rest. He must have fallen into
deep sleep, for, when tho
masons instructed to brick up the end
OF the pipe Inter en- in the dsy carried out
their orders, he made no sign. As soon rs the
furnace was pronounced to be again in work.
ing order the stokers were instructed to light
the fires, and did so. Presently Kaczandcr
for him, but in vain. Next morning II appears
to have occurred to one OF his fcllow-work-
men that he might have crcpt into The air
pipe. Upon this suggestion being communf-
Gated to the manager, steps were at once
taken to break into the closed mouth OF the
tube; and, sure enough, the charrcd skeleton
of Anthony Kaczander was discovered. lying
close to the issue. bricked up during his heavy
sumber of the previous afternoon. In all
probability, awakened by the heat soon after
the fires were lighted, he had crawled toward
the outlet, and, finding IL impcnetrably closed,
had resigned himself to bis fate.
