The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1884-06-19

SOME little trouble has arisen in Meme
about farmers encroaching upon the
road by moving fences. The town board
are taking steps to preserve the road its
full width. Other towns should do like
wise. There are portions of the Mish-
icott road not wider than "a feet and it
is a difficult matter for teams to pass one
another there. There are many of the
public roads that have been narrowed to
lanes, and the lightest snow storm blocks
them. Liberty has roads so narrow as
to almost compel girl and her fellow to
walk single file.

F0RTK-EI0RTH CONGRESS.
House or Representatives.
WASHINGTON. June IA. 1876

WASHINGTON. june Ia, 1884.
Immediately after the reading OF the
journal the House resumed the considera-
ton OF the amendments In dispute be-
tween the two houses upon the post-office
appropriation bill, the pending amendment
being that incorporated by the Senate APP
propriating 1885, for special mail iacili-
ties on trunk lines.
Mr.. Horn, OF Michigan, moved that the
House recede from its disagreement to the
amendment and agree to the same, with an
amendment increasing the appropriation
| to S2j0,0U0.
Mr.. Horr stated that slS5,00O was the
exact amount expended for the fast-mail
! service. The conference committee had
agreed that II ten were to be retained in
the bill the appropriation should be in
creased. All the money now given for this
service was expended between Washington
and Pensacola, and an increased apprOpria-
| lion would permit OF the service being put
on the road from Baltimore TO Hagerstown.
/ Nd.
Mr.. Findlay, OF Maryland, in advocating
the motion, said that the establishment OF
fast mail between Baltimore and Hagers-
| town would be OF benefit to the whole
southern and southwestern section OF the
country.
Mr.. Bisbec, OF Florida, as the repre-
sentative Of section Of country which
was benefited by the iast-mail service, pro-
tested against it, dlscontinuancc.
| The debate branched off into the discus
/ sion OF the manner OF compensation.
Messrs. IIiscOck and Cannon suggested
/ that Congress should adopt the system
recommended by the commission author
lied by the last Congress TO inquire into
the matter.
Mr.. Townshend replied that the Post
master General bad refused TO endorse the
recommendation.
! Mr.. Blunt, OF Georgia. stated that the
scheme was not a new one, but had been
suggested to the Committee on Appropria-
! tons some years ago by the railroad in
! tereSts.
! Mr.. Bland. Of Missouri, opposed the spe-
cial facility appropriation as being cor
ruption fund, and contended that il the
appropriation were TO be made Congress
should regulate its disbursement and say
where the money should be expended.
Mr.. Horn SAID the gentleman from Mis-
souri, seemed to 90 on the theory that every
body in the United States except himself
was Il scoundreI, and he alone approach
ed an angel.
Mr.. Holman opposed the appropriation
as being local in character and not national.
Messrs. Aiken and DibbP, OF South Ca
rOlina, asked that the special-facilities
clause be retained.
Mr.. IIorr's motion was agreed to-yeaS,
1876; nays, 81
Mr.. Horr moved that the House concur
in the remaining amendment increasing
from $4,000, 600 to $4,000, 900 the appropria-
ton for railway post-ofiice clerks.
After debate the motion was lost yeas.
81; nays, HI and the House further in
sisted on its disagreement TO the amend
ment. This completed the consideration
OF the bill.
The contest for precedence Of bills fol
lowed, which ended by the House taking
up the Pacific railroad business, pending a
discussion OF which, and thout reaching
avote upon anything, the House adjourned.

Active Preparations for The Khsr.
tOum Expedition.
Nv cable to the DispatCh.I

LONDON, June 1.-THE War Office and
Admiralty continue to make active prepa-
rations for the contemplated expedition TO
KhartOum. 4 report Is current that Gem
eral Lord WolSlev advises pushing the
campaign ria Suakim or Massowah in
stead OF by way OF the Nile. The Admit
rally has applied TO the various steamship
companies for the names and tonnage Of
their vessels which could be used for
transport service in August. Drafts OF en-
gineerS, officers, and men. for the transport
and commissiariat service, are being hur-
ried off for Egypt, and most OF them are
going to Suakim. Navigating officers, de-
tailed from the ships stationed at Suakim,
are buoyng the approaches to the port,
and marking sites in preparation for the
arrival OF a large number OF transports.
1t appears that there was pecuniarv ba-
sis for the success attending Admiral Hew-
ett's mission to King John, Of Abyssinia.
The King undertakes to provide 10000
men for an expedition to aid the English,
and Admiral Hewitt promises that large
sum OF money shall be placed at the Kings
disposal to defray expenses.

PHILADELPHIA, June 14.-The tram
from Atlantic City, on the Camden and At
lantic railroad, ran off the track at Lake
side. about eleven miles from Camden, TINS
morning. Advices received by telegraph
give the following particulars: Killed
Wesley Palmer, engineer OF the aecommo.

the Lakeside train; Albert Smith. con-
ductor Of the Lakeside train; Nicholas
Barber. fireman; w. l.. Hill. mail agent /;
Frank Fenton, the supervisor OF the road,
and G. Edmonds, a passenger-total, seven.
Sixteen persons were injured-slX OF
them very seriously. 1t Is stated that the
accommodation train should have taken
the siding at Ashland, just above Lakeside
PARK. in order to allow the excursion tram
10 pass. The operator at Ashland, 1t Is
charged. is responsible for the disaster IN
permitting the accommodation to pass
without going on the siding. Efforts were
made TO obtain the name OF this operator
but this was impossible, owing to the in q,
junction of secresy which prevails win all
employees. 1t is said, however, that the
generator was new man.

LATE FOREIGN NEWS.
DYNAMITE IN A PUBLIC DRAIN.
How Nearly the Anarchists Blew Up BevT
| of Crowned Hends.

How Nearly the Anarchists Blew Up BevT
OF Crowned Heads.
A Berlin special says: Ever since the
discovery, few days after the inaugura-
ton OF the colossal statue OF Germania, in
The Niederwald last September, OF guam
tity OF dynamite in drain-pipe near by,
an imperial commission has been engaged
In investigation. The Munich Gazette says
the plot was undoubtedly the work OF o
well-organized band OF Anarchists, its OBJ
iect being nothing less than the ass ssina-
ton OF the Emperor. the Crown Prince,
the Imperial Chancellor, and other notable
personages.
The commissioners have caused excava-
tions TO be made in various places near the
monument, and, in addition 10 the small
quantity OF dynamite already reported,
they have discovered 4 perfect mine Of ex-
plosives under the very pathway over
which the imperial procession passed on
the occasion OF the unveiling. The mine
had been ARRANGED with n degree OF skill
which indicated that its constructors had
been well educated in military engineering,
and only one accidental circumstance pre-
vented the complete success Of their dia-
bolical plot.
For some days previous to the unwilling
ceremonies heavy rains had prevailed over
the Niederwad region, and the ground
had become soaked to an unusual degree.
The water which percoated through the
soil bad ruined the "powder string" or
train, by which Il had been intended to ex-
plode the mine. As samples Of the dyna-
mite exploded since the discovery were
found to have lost little. if any, power, the
commissioners declare that il the conspira-
tors had been cunning enough to use a
well-insulated wire and an electric battery
to fire their mine nothing could have pre-
vented a horrible slaughter.

Another Report of the Berber Mas
sacrp.
[By cable to the Dispatch.


LONDON, June 14.-Egyptian advices
state that an Arab has arrived at koroskO
who claims to be the sole survivor OF the
Berber garrison. He says he was present
when the rebels attacked Berber on May
23d. The garrison defended the town for
two hours by severe fighting, but the
rebels were too strong for them and forced
their way into the city. where they imme-
diately mastered 800 men OF the garri-
son and 1000 OF the male population.
The women and children were spared.
This story is believed by Major Kitchener
and the son OF Hussien Pacha Khalifa,
Governor OF Berber.
The PQH-MdH Gazette says: We must
now add $500 more to the thousands al
ready butchered to make the holiday for
Giadstonan principles. Humanity reyolts
at such Il state Of things, and somehow or
other stop should be put to it.
CONFIRMATION or THE REPORTED FALL.
CAIRO. June 14.-The Governor OF Don
cola announces that Berber has fallen, and
that FL Mahdi's Amer is advancing upon
Dongola. The Governor proposes to
eyacuate that city.

NEW YORK, June 14.-Panama advices OF
the 9Th instant state /: Night before last an
attempt was made to kidnap President
Ceryana, it is said, by General Ruez's fac
ton. Ii miscarried as the President,
learning of it, slept in the military bar
racks. Great uncertainty prevails. Sew
eral murders have been committed IN
David, in this State. The various po-
litical parties are very bitter, and
are sending out anonymous fy-sheets
accusing each other of all kinds Of
things. In the event OF reyolu-
ton that many fear. there is not an Amerl-
can man-of- war here or in AspinWall.
English men-of-war will protect British
interests. England only wants an oppor-
tunity to interfere, and already has threat
ened to do so by her representative. To-
dav there are fully 10000 Jamaicans and
British subjects on the isthmus who would
suffer In the event Of revolution. Eng
land saws she will protect them. INQUIRY
is made as TO the treaty OF 1916 between
the American Government and the United
States of Colombia, by which the former
promised TO maintain the neutrality and
sovereignty OF Colombia. Foreign inter-
ests other than American are to-day in the
ascendant on the lsthmus OF Panama.
Captain Phelps, the American Minister
to Peru. has Just landed here, having been
visiting Nicaragua in the interests OF the
Nicaragua canal. He returns to New York
