A Scene in the House.

There was All exciting scene in the
House at Harrisburg last Friday. The
subject under discussion was the con.
gressional bill, and the ball was opened
by republican member from Indiana
county, Lowrey, who had the courage
to be fair to the democrats. Lowrey
held that as the Presidential vote was
taken as the basis Of the Congressional
apportionment the number of districts
due the Democrats would be thirteen
aud fraction and the republicans four
teen and fraction, but in his opinion
the only way to make the apportion-
ment was to take the map and,without
considering politics, draw the lines in
accordance with the constitutional re-
quirements of contiguous territory and
nearest possible approach to equality of
population. lie had done that and
found the Democrats entitled to eleven
sure and the Republicans to sixteen
sure and one doubtful district.
Republicans hissed and Democrats
applauded.
Now came the excitement. Sharpe,
in a speech praising Lowrey, charged
the other Republicans with having
made an extra session necessary and
Landed the Democratic leaders from
Jefferson down. Republicans jeered
at his mention of Jackson and Demo-
Gratis retorted that candy" was better
than Malone, anyhow. Sharpe's con-
Guiding remarks, that there were as
many Democrats as Republicans in the
Union army, Immediately threw the
House into confusion, as if bomb
shell had burst upon the floor. A doz-
en- Republicans shouted "Mr. Speak
erl"
"That's not true, and the gentleman
knows it's not" exclaimed War Veter-
an Brown, of Erie, with fierce gesture.
"The whole rebel army were Demo.
Gratis" was heard from Lands, of Ian
caster, above the babel.
"You're liar" cried Mackin, of
Philadelphia, jumping towards Lands,
who made no reply and could not be
heard if he did, so great was the con
fusion.
Things gradually grew worse until
Brown of Erie shook his fist at the
Democrats generally and said
dts only twenty years since you
men wore the copperhead badge"
This threw the House beyond Faun.
ce's control again. The confusion and
excitement were greater than before.
Democrats became hoarse trying to
make Brown hear the denunciations of
him, and members on both sides ming
led their cries for order with the yells
of the belligerents and the shouts and
pounding of the Speaker.
But for the interference of some of
the cooler headed ones, there would
have been some black eyes and bloody
noses.
Having spent two and half hours
in the discussion and scenes of disorder
the house adopted Lowrey's amend
ment and passed the bill on second
reading.

Another New Party.
MONOPOLY AND NO FUSION THE
PRINCIPLES.
special to pittsburg Dispatch from Chicago.

Special TO Pittsburg Dispatch from chicago
"Other than we are opposed to mon
opoles in every form, cannot outline
just what the delegates to our national
convention, which is to be held in this
city Wednesday will do said Mr. G.
G. Post, secretary of the provisional
committee of .the anti.monopolists.
"The object of our conference is to
form new political party, and our
main principle is to fight the present
unjust discrimination of the monopo-
lies We shall form no alliance or
combination with the greenback or any
other of the old parties. They may be
delegates who have been greenbackers,
or democrats, or oddfellows, for that
matter, but they will MT be received
as such. The issue which we will pre-
sent will be distinctly a fight against
monopolies."
"There is one question upon which
think a majority of the delegates are
united said Mr.. J. H. Burke, delegate
OF the anti-league of San Francisco,
"and that is the abolishment of the
electoral college and the election of the
president and vice president by a
direct vote of the people. | shall ad-
vocate this in our meeting, and shall
also offer resolutions prohibiting the
appropriation by congress of any pub
lie funds in the general appropriation
bill, except for the expenses of the
general government l shall offer
also a resolution requesting congress to
enact laws taking the interests of all
railway companies in lands granted
them, which would make a difference
of about S11,00O,000 per year to the
people. Then there is the prohibition
of giving aid or credit by the govern
mens to any private person, associa-
tlon or corporation, also prohibiting
congress from granting charter to
any railway company or association
whatever"
'We think it is rather too early to
form new party upon our ideas"
said MIR. N. b. Kilner, secretary of the
New York State an:i-monopoly league,
"but we are very glad of this confer
ence, and think that it will be produc-
tive of good. We will advocate prin
cipally progressive movement in all
the states, looking to the education of
people to- proper understanding of
the course of all monopolies and the
establishment of leagues for that pur.
pose similar to the one we have in
New York state We take the broad
ground of opposition to all monopolies,
whether of money, lands, railroads, oil
or of any name whatever, and there
fore if we do start new party cannot
combine with the greenbackers or with
any other party. In New York we
have been steadily at work for the past
two years and are very strong, really
holding the balance of power, which
was clearly shown in the election of
Governor Cleveland We keep
record of the bills voted by the men,
bers of the assembly, marking the bad
ones, and distribute these records to
the people, thereby virtually blacklist
ing many. About thirty were black
listed in this way last year, nearly all
of whom failed of reelection"

Oooper's Frankness.

Senator Cooper showed the horns of
the Republican senators in a speech
made on Tuesday. He said in plain
words that the extra session must 90
for nothing in order to insult the COVER
nor in calling the legislature together
to perform its duty to the state, and
that the odium of failure and fruitless-
ness of the present session must fall
upon the executive. He for one was
very willing to 60 any length to attain
such an end, He could 60 before the
people with some grace and JUNCTION in
such an event and as a matter of party
eYpediency he would only be too de-
lighted to do so.
As matter of "party expediency'
the constitution is to be disregarded,
the money of the state paid out to the
Legislature for doing nothing, with the
hope that this result will react upon
the governor. A more suicidal course
than this could not be pursued by any
party, and should the republican sena-
tors follow the advice of the ''red head
ed and hopeful leader, the democrats
will have an issue on which to go be-
fore the people next fall, that must
surely win.

A Duel in Virginia.

Richard f. Beirne and William G..
ELAN, two Virginia editors, fought a
duel at Waynes Boro in that state last
Saturday. Elan was shot in the leg.
THE CAUSE OF THE QUARREL.
An editorial article in the Wing IRE
adjuster organ) on the 2lst of June,
severely denouncing the editor of the
State newspaper, created intense ex-
element throughout Richmond. BY
eleven o'clock every copy of the paper
was sold and extraordinary prices were
offered for it. The Wig editorial,
which personally indicated its writer as
Mr.. Elan, as well as Mr.. Beirne, to
whom it was directed, was called forth
by an almost equally severe and gen
eral denunciation of Senator Malone,
and his followers by the letter, pub
lished in the State on the previous
evening. On the 2lst, upon the aflida-
Wit of policeman that both the parties
were about to commit breach of the
peace, a warrant was issued for the ar
rest of Messrs Elam and Beirne, neither
of whom, however, could be found. The
unusually violent tone of the respective
newspapers precluded the possibility OF
any settlement of the difficulty except
by resort to deadly weapons, and Mr.
Beirne sent challenge to Mr.. Elan,
which was accepted. They were, how
ever, prevented by the authorities from
meeting until Saturday.
The pistol seems to be mightier than
the pen in Virginia. 1t remains to be
seen now whether the law is mightier
than the pistol. In this enlightened
age it is high time that the resort to
'the CODE be abandoned. ...

All the arrangements for the annual
exhibition of the Pennsylvania State
Agricultural Society at Philadelphia,
for the next ten years, have been COM
pleted. The location of the ground is
on the tract owned by WIN. Weight
man, south of the connecting railroad
and west of the Philadelphia and Read
ing, at North Broad street. The con.
tract of enclosing the plot will be made
am. the adoption of plans for the main
exhibition building and other buildings.
1t is expected to have everything in
readiness by the middle of September.
The society intends to add the a,trac-
tions each year, increasing the dimen-
sions of buildings, etc, and will offer
the largest premiums this year covering
all classes of exhibits. 1t is probable
that the office of the society will be re-
moved TO Philadelphia.

The Reading Railroad Company
suspended at the close of work Satur.
day about one hundred machinists in

Ter shops about twenty-five journey
men, together with their helpers, some
forty in number, were also suspended
for an indefinite period. In all the
suspension embraces over one hundred
and fifty hands. Scarcity of work
is given as the only cause. No new
engines are being built at present aud
the hands retained will be kept npon
repair work In the Car shops of the
company there is an abundance of work !,
new passenger and freight cars being
turned out as fast as possible, including
a number from the Jersey Central.

Tobacco in Pennsylvania.

The tobacco habit, like that of alco-
hol, is universal. 1t is estimated that
there are 1900, 100000 human beings
on the globe today, and according to
current statistics 700, 900, 900, or nearly
one-half use the seductive weed. These
devotees include the most refined as
well as the most savage races. The
disciples of Oscar Wilde pulls away at
his cigarette in the most fashionable
club in London, and the meanest saw
age in New Zealand puffs at his pipe,
There is the broadest latitude, socially
and territorially, between the two, but
as one touch of nature makes the whole
world kin, 80 one puff of tobacco smoke
establishes friendly relations between
the most widely scattered members OF
the human race. Indeed, 1t is related
that the political fortunes of man who
afterwards became eminent in political
circles, had their origin in the happy
fact that he was once able to supply
the pipe of a President of the United
States. The story runs that on the
celebrated occasion when Andrew John
son was swinging around the circle, he
inquired in Car full of passengers,
"Who will give me cigar or fill my
pipe 7" There was no cigars, unfor,
tunately, on the train, but there was
one individual who happened to have
a bag of "Killik,nick' tobacco, and
who was able to satisfy Mr., Johnson
with the soothing solace his nerves SC
much needed. This man was after
ward made revenue collector, and be
came millionaire.

Senator John Stewart, in recent in
terview, said of Governor Pattison,
when speaking of the extra session {:
81 believe the Governor acted upon the
best of motives. The result may dis
appoint me and vindicate him. As to
his yielding in this, or any other mat
ter of public duty, to personal or polit-
ical considerations affecting those who
stand ar him, I do not entertain it
as suspicion. From all that have
seen and know of the man, believe
that he can be influenced only as you
can convince his judgment. He may
be lacking in breadth, as he certainly
is in experience, but experience will
probably give him breadth. He
wants to do right and tries very hard
to be right. This is my estimate of
the man. 1t may be wrong, but it is
the best / can make from what / have
SEEN"

An En- Treasurer Short.

An examination of the accounts of
County Treasurer John II. Grffiths
of Luzerne Co., revealed the fact that
there was shortage of $1,000. The
discrepancy exists in the seated aud
unseated land taxes account for 1880.
1t is belived to be beyond doubt that
the treasurer is innocent of taking one
penny OF the amount, and suspicion
points strongly towards John Pollock,
his chief clerk Pollock was lately
employed in the pension department
at Washington, but left there recently
for Fon Du Lac.

An Advance in Pig Iron.

The Thomas Iron Company of New
York made an announcement last Fri.
day of All advance ir its price for pig
iron of so ton on No. l and so a
ton on No, 2. This will make the
price $22 and 500. President Clark,
of the company, says that the demand
warrants the advance. The trade, he
says, has recovered very rapidly of
late, and owing to the large number of
furnaces that have blown out recently
he thinks the demand will more than
equal the supply within the next three
months. President Clark says that in
the last month the Thomas Iron Com
pany has shipped more ore than in any
one month of its existence heretofore.

Two men and a boy were suffocated
by black damp near Scranton early on
Saturday morning. They were found
in we'll near the shaft by John
Mcdonald, the engineer. The names
of the victims were David MCGOWAN
and William Barnes and driver boy,
named Johnie Wolcott. How they
got there is mystery. They were
cold and had evidently been dead sew
eral hours. The theory of the work
men is that Wolcott probably looked
into the we'll to crafty the boys curio
sity, was overcome by gas and fell in,
and that the others went to his assis-
tance and were overcome in similar
manner. This seems improbable, and
there are many who believe that the
tragic mystery is the result of foul
play.
