WASHINGTON, April %.
SENATE-The bill providing for the sp-
pointmant of an acting secretary of the
Smithsoniaa institution was passed.
Mr.. Call reported fsvorabIy from the Com
nittee on Education the bill to encourage the
education of Indians in Dakota.
Mr.. George reported favorably from the
same committee the bill to protect American
Iaborers.
When the bill to make the department of
agriculture an executive department was
reached on the calendar, Mr.. Kenna offered
substitute creating a department of indus
tries with q department of agriculture, to be
presided over by commissioner at salary
of az. 600 per annum. The substitute also
crestes divisions for labor statistics and pro-
vides for matters relating to trade and COM
meree; went over on objection.
Mr.. Blair reported favorsbly from the
Committee on Labor and Education the bill
to establish and maintain bureau Of labor
statistics and the Senate bill to provide for
the study of physiology and the effects of
narcotic and alcoholic poisops upon human
| life in the schools
The chair appointed Messrs. Hale. Logan
and Beck the Senate conference on the naval
appropriation bill, and Messrs. Plumb. Ali
sol, and Beck conferees on the postofice ap-
preparation bill.
The conference report ON the emergency
deficiency bill was agreed to.
Consideration of the pleuEo-pneumon1a bill
was than resumed. Mr.. jones, of Florida,
characterized the measure as an extraordinary
one which violated nearly every fundamental
principle of the constitution. The Senate
had sometimes been called the American
House of Lords. It was all very well to
throw out such slurs, but the fact remained
that the Senate was the safeguard Of the
rights of the States.
At BIO p. m. the Senate adjourned till
Monday.
HousE The House went into COMMITTEES
of the Whole, after the morning hour, on the
private calendar. Pending consideration of
the bill for the relief of Mrs. Gaines the
committee rose to enable Mr.. Randall to sub
NIT conference report on the emergency
deficiency bill. A slight change was report
ed as agreed to by the committee and the re-
| port was adopted.
The House after limiting all debate on the
Gaines bill to ten minutes again went into
Committee of the Whole, when the bill was
amended so as to require the location of

On Account OF the Ri0t-GOvernor HO9d'
ley Backward About Committing q
Sentence.
COLUMBUS, April Ex-Governor HoadIsy'e
private secretary says that several private
appeals have been made for a Communication
of McHuRh's sentence to life imprisonment.
As yet no formal appeal has been made by
his attorney or the courts. The Governor
has the matter under careful consideration
and is said to favor McHugh, yet the recent
riot and public sentiment have Influenced
both the courts and the Governor to pursue
the intent of the law and the courts. Mike
Ryan is using his influence with Hoadley and
there is one chance in hundred for Nc
Hugh's life.

BosToN, April 25.-The Shaw Brothers
case came up again in the equity session OF
the Superior court this morning. Judge
Cofburn decided that as he is director in
the Dedham bank, which is a creditor Of the
Shaws, he could not with propriety act in

der issued by him last Tuesday ordering the
payment of dividend should be vacated and
a rehearing held before another Judge. The
case will be heard by Judge Field sometime

Murderer's Thin St0ry-Recited In
Court and Causing q Great Sensation.
ELN1RA, April 25.~William Meinke, on
trial for the murder of Katie Brofshaft, has
confessed the crime. In the court to-day
Chief of Police Little took the stand and re-
lated a confession recently made to him by
the prisoner as follows: stOn the second day
of last January, in company with Kate, left
New York city. We were going to Baltimore
to get married. The train had left and we
therefore took another for Elmira. and on
our arrival there We put up at Snyder's hotel
On the second day after that walked with
the deceased up toward Carr's corners, near
where formerly worked, and drank at two
or three places. Near dusk We crossed the
bridge over the creek near the reformatory.
Katie fell off and dragged me with her.
asked her if she was hurt and she replied,
pointing to the blood on her head, oh, my
hesdl' went after help, but could find none
I returned and called her by name. She did
not answer. I thought her dead and dragged
the body under the bridge and Strengthened
it out. then took her jewelry and money
and fed to New York, where was arrested. -
During this recital the prisoner and his
brother wept. The prosecution introduced
evidence showing that the prisoner undoubt-
eddy felled the girl to the ground 200 feet
from the bridge and then dragged the body
to the creek and hid it. The prisoners
story was considered weak excuse. The
prosecution closed to-day. The prisoner has
no witnesses.
