out. and as she fell was seized
around the waist by the intrepid
fireman and held fast. She was

creaked and swayed under the

the fireman began the peTilous des-
cent, but he held on with extraor-
binary strength. and reached a
lower step with his burden in
safety. Looking upward at the
moment he beheld Mrs. FrankeI
balancing on that window sill, about

late to stop her by shouting; If she
was not caught in the fall, all thre e
must be thrown to the ground and
perhaps killed.
With great co0lneSs and nerve,
Fireman Leonard held out his dis
engaged left arm and, while slowly
letting the g ri Rose slide down
wards toward his comrades in the
street, seized and caught Mrs.
Frankel as she let go her hold. 1t
was a splendid act, requiring, as it
did, the strength and agility of an
athlete, as we'll as the courage of a
brave man under the circumstances.
The ladder held and the two

down and seized as the ladder was

the last sound rung. The girl Rose
had already been caught safely in
the arms of the fremen. They
were received with shouts and tears
of JOY by hundreds of their neigh

adjoining house. Both were more
than hall unconscious. The man
Frankel climbed down the ladder in
safety, assisted by a fireman. When
the fire department ladders arrived,
the danger was past. The flames
were put out in less than twenty
minutes.

 WASHINGTON, June 18.-The House to-mor- TOW after the call of States will act upon bills called up by committees under suspen- si In of the rules, 8 half-hour's debate being al owed on each bill. MT. Williams, of Wis con in, will attempt to pass the bill appro- priaCing $5O,OOO for the fishery exhibition at London. On Tuesday the bill appropriating million dollars for Congressional library will come up, and the House will prob ably pass it with one days discussion. After the library bill the House will probably take up Mir. Kelly's bill for thirty millions reduc- tion in the internal revenue. Kelly thinks he will be able to pass the bill The consider aion of this bill will probably consume two or three days, as the opposition to it will be very considerable on both sides of the House. This will probably be followed by another of the appropriation bills, though which is as yet not fully decided. The caucus on Tues day evening may consider this, though the l principal object IS to determine whether to take up other election cases in the House this SC ,sion. In the talk about the date for adjournment the belief is still that the ses- sion will last until the third week in July.

DavitL's ArrivaI-E4is Views on the Land
 Question.
 NEW YORK, June 18.-The Germanic ar- rived at her dock early this morning and the reception that was arranged for Davitt was carried out to great extent. The agita- tor stepped from the steamer at 7'30 and was driven immediately to the Everett House. In an interview he said "I have not made or suggested a new departure. My Liverpool speech was not intended to antagonize the views of Parnell or to switch of the Land League movement from the path it has been pursuing. It was made in answer to a chal- lenge from the Tory press, who declared I could not define my idea of the land for the people in reasonable way. They put the onus of communism on me and I simply de- sire to repudiate the stigma and justify the idea in the eyes of reasonable people. ,, At three o'clock there was a confer ence at the Astor House between the joint Land League committees of New York and Brooklyn, the Boston delegation, representa- tives of the the leaguers from other localities and Michael Davitt. The distinguished vis- itor is apparently much improved in health

The conference was 8 prolonged one Resolutions of the joint | committee were laid before Davitt, heartily welcoming the father of the Land League, and expressing gratitude and confidence for his past and future. Dr. Wallace, D. Cur ran and others entered into exhaust. | i've statements on the matters at issue Davitt expressed regret that before conclusions had been arrived at his presence was not waited and his, explanations sought. The report of his Liverpool speech, on which so much misconception was based, was one he could not accept. The text was given without the context to suit no doubt the de- signs of the enemy's press and further the enemy's object of fomenting disunion. He was now, as he has ever been, in thorough accord with the Land League and it's objects and unqualifedly in union with Parnell and the other leaders. Applause, congratulations and handshaking all around followed this l declaration.
