JUDGE LOGAN DROPS DEAD.
Probable End of the Deadlock in the
Illinois Legislature.


illinois Legislature.
SpRISGFrELD, ILL.,, Feb. 2G.-Judge Robert
Logan. Republican member of the House.
dropped dead at the entrance to the door of
the House, at noon to-day. This gives the
Democrats one majority on joint ballot.
Representative Robert Logan, (Rep.) of
Wnitesides. who dropped dead at the head of
the House stairs to-day as he was on his way
ID the chamber. was subject to heart disease
and was undoubtedly killed by the excite
ment of the senatorial contest. His death
was unexpected. 1t will be necessary for the
Republicans in the Legislature to refrain
from voting for Senator If they wish 10 pre-
vent the election of Democrat.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-Judge Poland, of
Vermont, who was a member of the Senate
Judiciary Committee and assisted Lyman
1rumbull in drafting the law under which
Senators are elected in the several states, Is
quite decided in the opinion that the death
Of Representative Logan, of the Illinois
Legislature, to-day, leaves the Joint conven-
ton with an actual membership of two hun
dred and three and that, consequently, the
one hundred and two Democratic members
of the two Houses will constitute quorum
for the election of United States Senator.

THE DANGERS OF NATURAL GAS.
a Narrow Escape From a Disastrous
ExplosiOn

WE1LsBURG, w. ", Feb. 26.-Last night a
large audience assembled in the NJ. l..
Church which is lighted with natural gas
Midway of the services man hurriedly en-
tered and excitedly whispered to the sexton.
The sexton fastened and whispered to the
preacher, who Immediately dismissed the
the congregation. An examination showed
that break had been made in the gas-pipe
half an inch wide, from which the gas was
flowing. 1t was estimated that in ten min
utes it would have reached the lights and
caused an explosion that would have torn
the church To atoms and sacrificed many
lives. Women tainted when they realized
how near they had been to death.

DlSGUSTED ATTORNEYS.
They are Surprised by an Unexpected
Verdict OF .'Gullty."

sCFuiIt OF -0utitf.
The result Of the trial Of Bastian D'Ooge
in Police Court yesterday on the charge Of
not keeping his saloon closed on legal hol-
iday, was something of surprise TO the re-
spondent aud his attorneys. There was but
one witness sworn on the part of the People
the pauolman who made the complaint
who sirapiy testified that the grocery
was open and that men were standing al the
back endof the room where the bar Is stu
ated. He did not see any liquor sold nor
any one drinking The defense did not offer
any evidence but relied upon being able to
induce the Judge 10 interpret the law 80
that IN eases where bar is kept in connection
with grocery or hotel, il does not require
the whole house or room 10 be
closed, but simply that the bar be closed.
The Judge charged the jury that Monday
last was a legal holiday, and that it was not
necessary for the people 10 prove that liquor
was sold at the bar; that il was the duty of
the saloon keeper not only 10 observe the law
by not selling, and keeping his house closed,
but that he must see that no opportunity Is
afforded to violate the law. The verdict of
- Guilty" was so unexpected to the attorneys
for the defense-McBride & Taylor-that
they requested the Judge to delay sentence
until this morning to allow them to deter
mine what course to pursue. The jurors were
John A. Brummeler, j. G. Wenham, q. B.
Wright, Lyman Kinney, Edwin Wade and
VIM Shackleton. Mr.. Frank l.. Carpenter
appeared for the people.

The Silver Question.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-The action of the
House in forcing Mr.. Randall to strike out
of the Sundry Civil bill the clause giving the
President discretionary powers TO suspend
the coinage of the silver dollar was the sub
ject of considerable comment at the Capitol
to-day. Many members are of the opinion
that this ends the matter, while others think
that "a Cleveland has let his wishes be known
on the subject that it will call an extra ses-
sion unless some legislation equivalent to
the clause which was stricken out shall be
enacted by the present Congress.
