Dsth Room.
newly married pair, who arrived on
their honeymoon trip at celebrated
Scotch watering place when accommoda-
ton was at premium, says the London
Telegraph, bad mattress spread for
them by compassionate inn-keeper in
one OF his bath rooms. In the middle of
the night the house was alarmed by loud
shrieks proceeding from the nuptial cham
Der. What was the matter? Well, this.
The young bride wishing to ring for
servant, had caught hold of what she sup.
posed to be the bellrope, and pulled il
smartly. UnhapDilY for her and her
spouse, it was the cord of the shower bath
over their heads, and forth with down
pumped ouch deluge or cold water as
would throw Il damper upon the most de-
voted of hOneymooning couples. Her
husband, in dismay, caught franiically at
another cord on his side of the extempo-
riZed couch, but the only response was an
equally liberal deluge of water, this time
nearly boiling hot. The unhappy couple
then screamed in unison. When the SER
vants'reached the scene, they found the
hoor of the room flooded with water, and
the wife was perched like monkey on
her husbands back, uttering the most la
inevitable cries, while her good man was
fumbliag about in the dark, trying his
best to find the door.

THE UTAH COMMISSION.
Nothing tOhe Done Until Provision Is
Made For Paying Its Members.


WASHINGTON, July ly6.-Ex-Secretary Ram.
sey, a member OF the Utah Commission,
who has been here for several days on busi-
ness in connection with the commission,
will probably return to Minnesota to-mor-
row. lie SayS n"th;~" will he done in the
,,o,, of orconi4iy;O the commission and he.
9aoaaaa,,. s r'S "ofk tlll after the blu aasr.6r.
come alaw. The billwill no doubt be passed
before the adjournment of Congress.
If il should not, it will be impossible for
the commission to do anything until the
next session. Mr.. Ramsey says the work
of the commission will occupy more time
than he had anticipated when he accepted
the appointment as one OF its members.
The labors. Of course will not be continu'
Gus: but the commission will remain in ex-
istence till the new territorial Legislature
has organized and passed the election law
of the Territory prescribed in the act OF
Congress. The committee will conduct the
registration of voters, according to the law
of Congress, excluding those who not only
practice, but believe in pOlygamy, and GER
several sittings of the commission
and several trips to the terri
tory. Mr.. Ramsey thinks the commission
is a step in the right direction, but it re
mains to be seen whether the results will
be permanently beneficial. 1t is probable
that all that was intended to be gained by
the bill will be accomplished, bnt the ter
ritory is irrevocably in the hands OF the
Mornons, who will control it. Mr.. Ram
sey does not think Utah is very inviting to
the agricultural population, and that the
Mormons will never be much troubled by
Gentle immigration, except, perhaps, BY
few miners, who, however, seldom become
permanent citizens. The Mormons have
made the country what it is by hard work
and irrigation. They were a band OF en-
thusiasts, and would have gone to Pixies
Peak or Alaska, if necessary.

A RATHER BAD SHOWING.
The scioto Disaster and the Disregard
ed Laws.

PrrrsBURC, July G.-According to the
Uuited States Local Inspector of this dis
trict, somebody has been terribly remIss Ill
the Scioto disaster. Though declining to
give an opinion in advance OF the result 6i
the rigid Investigation which must follow
this latest horror, the officers referred 10
expressed themselves freely as follows:
The Scioto, if carrying over'3OO passengers,
was grossly exceeding her privilege, even
with special permit. Even If the Wheel
ing inspectors used extreme latitude IN
granting a special permit, the tonnage OF
fbe Scioto. lie tons, would not be o
sufficient basis for allowing half the people
on board at the time OF the collision. This
matter is left 10 the discretion of the local
inspectors, but two passengers per ton is
regarded as very liberal allowance. The
Jack Gumbert, 60 tons, was granted per-
nit to carry $50 passengers. She dld carry
400 and was prosecuted. On the other
hand the Iomas, from what is known, dis
regarded the law. The latter has the follow
ing on the subject: Rule states that when
steamers are approaching each other, tne
signal for passing shall be one sound oil the
steam-whistle to keep TO the right, and two
sounds of the steam-w whistle to keep to the
left. These signals to be made
first by the descending steamer
Rule . provides that should steamers be
likely to pass near each other. and these
signals should not be made and answered
at the time such boats shall have arrived at
the distance of eight hundred yards from
each other, the engines Of both boats shall
be stopped; or should the signal De gwen
and not properly understood from any
cause whatever, both boats shall be backed
until their headway shall be fully checked;
and the engines shall not be again started
ahead until the proper signals are made,
answered and understood"
As near IS can be known at present the
Iomas was not more than 600 yards from
the Scioto when she signaled, and then she
did not slow her engines or reverse their

Special Diqpatch 10 the Register. = y
WASHINGTON, July 6.-The House, this
afternoon, was the scene of another dis
graceful exhibition. The Naval appropria-
tion bill was under consideration, and
Robson took the floor to close the debate.
His speech was almost entirely adefense of
his administration of the Navy Depart
ment, but in the course of his remarks he
alluded in terms of scathiug denunciation
to Whitthorne. In speaking Of those who
conducted the investigation Of the Forty.
fourth Congress, he said that if there was a
man who was accused of stealing school
funds Of his own State, he wanted him to
come to the front. at this Whitthorne
jumped to his feet, and excitedly ex-
claimed: That's lie, whoever tells or
repeats it," Robson kept his temper we'll,
and replied that he had mentioned no
names, but that if any gentleman recog-
nized himself in the picture, he was at lib.
erty to appropriate it to himself.
Here the confusion became great. Mem
bers gathering around both par
ties, and the most bitter
and personal denunciations were hurled
back and forth. However, Robson contin-
ned his denunciation of Wuitthorue, and at
the conclusion of his TRAD, the bill was
passed by a vote of 1l9 to 75.
Immediately after the announcement of. +.
the vote, Whitthorn was recognized and
proceeded to denounce the charge made by
which he aracterized as untrue
and absolutely without / ,undation. He
then referred to the admin ,tration Of Rob
eson, and charged him, fatty, with sharing
the 'swag" with the firm OF Cattell & Co.
Another scene of excitement ensued
and as Whitthorne hurled his indignant
and bitter epithets at the New Jersey repre-
there were frequent calls of "or.
DER" and demands that the words be taken
down, but he continued, and after having
viewed Robeson's career, concluded by say.
ing that with full sense of the RESPONSE
bilitys he assumed, he branded upon his
upon his (Robeson's) forehead the words,
'falsehood and perjury"
Robson replied briefly, to the effect that
he was willing to have his record compared
with that of his opponent, and the House
subsidized into its usual LuuI.drum con.
lition.

THE TARIFF COMMISSION.
The First Meeting OF the Body-Some
Matters TO which Their Attention
ShouId be Directed,
Special Dispatch 20 the Register.

Special Dispatch 10 the Register.
WASHINGTON, July 6.-The Tariff Com
mission met for its first session, this morn
ing, and President Hayes delivered an ad-
dress, stating that the object Of their de-
liberations should be to establish judi
cious tariff which should do equal justice
TO all parties interested. Just at this time
it may be proper to call the attention of the
Commission to the facetious obstructive
ness which, in Germany, classifies hams as
cotton goods and canned beef as ironware.
American shredded Goldfish, packed in light
wooden boxes, having been elassed as wood
ware, has avoided this imposition OF
higher tax by packing in pasteboard boxes.
The classification, already noted, OF braided
goods such as trousers, jackets and coats} as
"6ne millinery is sufficiently humorous,
but is closely pressed BY the classification
of canned foods of the most ordinary char
| acter as "fne table delicacies, the result OF
this practical joke being that "tinned"
tomatoes and potted meats are
so weighted that their price necessarily
| puts them among the slow selling luxuries.
As one instance. the Commissariat Depart
ment of the German army had given to an
i'm porter of American goods large order
for a peculiar preparation of meat and veg
etables mixed, so packed in tin that the
contents of the tin could be quickly heated,
on the march, and could be eaten without
removal from the can, which, haying
served as case, cooking utensil, and dish,
was then TO be thrown away; the order was
filed satisfactorily, but as the custom house
| classed the article as table delicacies," '"
although knowing it to be intended
for the Army, the importer declined to
furnish any more on a contract based on
the price of ''beef," and similar proposal
to furnish the German fortresses with
canned food for siege emergencies fell
through for the same reason. Every kind
OF representation and appeal, says the
| American Secretary of Legation at Berlin
1 has been made by importers to the Treas
nry Department here. BIZ sitA2s. eviS-
