smashed up at the b. & p. Railroad cross
ing at the corner of Sixth street aud Mary

crossing, the gateman lowered the gates be-
fore the car rcould stop. The car ran into
and smashed the gates, stopping the car on
the track, which, luckily, passed over the
crossing just as an incoming train passed
by. The railroad officials should look into
this matter, as the gate-teDders don't seem
to realize the responsibilities attached to
their positions.

extraordinary speech of Belford. 1t was
Belford's first appearance this session. The
red headed rooster of the Rockies" was
greeted with round of tumultuous ap-
plause when he arose and addressed the
Chair. The well-known face and lumber
ing figure excited universal attention, and
everybody began to anticipate one of the
old.time treats. Nor were the crowded
galleries Of ladies disappointed, for more
remarkable speech even Belford never
made. He gradually worked himself down
tho aisle and then over across the dias to
the Democratic side, about two-thirds of
the Republican side following him. The
tenor of his speech was the old one of open
ing the vaults of the Treasury, but he
branched out into general politics. Wash.

IT is reported that several of the Gov
ernment Departments have exceeded the
appropriations made for their exhibits at
New Orleans and will appeal to Congress
for deficiencies. The departmental repre-
sentatives claim that the deficiencies do
not result from extravaganza Or reckless ex-
penditures, but from the exorbitant charges
and unexpected expense attendant upon
the necessary work in New Orleans.
There appears to be deplorable ten

this will be the policy, and the politicians
expect to see it carried out.

the ground that Thompson is a free
