The Extraordinary work Done By
 Two New York Competitors.
 NEW YORK, June 4.1When George Arens- berg set 2,064 solid ems of mirion type in one hour on February 19, 1870, it was chron- icled all over the world as a marvellous feat and he was called the wizard ot the compos- ing stick. But to-day this achievement was cast into the sbade by ths pefforrnfiaIiees of Joseph McCann of the New York Herald and Ira Somers of the World, both of whom eset over six thousand ems in three hours in contest for a wager of $250. The match took place in the Star office. The conditions were solid ininion without paragraphs, each competitor to correct his own composition at the end of the work, one line to be deducted from the work performed for each minute or fraction of minute consumed in correcting. Joseph Mo Cam set 6, $50 in three hours, which aver: aged up would beat Arensburg's record, but outside parties said that he did nearly 2,SOO els ill the first hour. Somers set 6,O22 in the three hours and is credited with doing over 2,100 in the first hour. McCann lost twelve minutes. thirty seconds in correcting his matter; for which he 1ost 325 ems. Somers took eleven minutes thirty sec onds to correct his proof and for this 300 ems were deducted, so that the official figures are 6. .O25 for McCann and 5, 722 for Somers. Mc- Cam beat the record by 955 ems. Somers suffered from nervousness.

 PARIS, June 4.-The Chamber of Deputies tonight rejected by vote of 322 to 15S the impeachment of M. Jules Ferry for miscon- duet in office as prime minister. The session messed in the chamber. The president was utterly powerless to quell the disorder and resorted in vain to the ultimatum usually effective in such cases of threatening to re- sign. Personalities were freely exchanged among the deputies and several duels have been arranged for on account of expressions used in the discussion.
