Paw for Paws Widow.

A "REMINISCENCES OF THE GREELY EXPEDITION
The deficiency bill now under consideration
in the House contains a provision allowing
Lila NJ. Pavy, widow of DR.. Octave Pavy, of the
Greedy expedition, the balance OF pay found due
him on account OF the fiscal year 1884 and
prior years, amounting to 81, ,S29. The House
committee on pensions has already reported
tavorably a bill to place Mrs. Pavy on the PEN
sion list. In its report the committee says that
while DIR. Pavy was not regularly enlisted with
the Greedy expedition, Lieut.. Greedy con-
tracted with him at God Haven, Greenland, TO
go with the party as its surgeon, and that he
acted in that capacity until June 80, 1888,
when the contract was annulled. August g.,
1888, Pavy was placed under arrest and re-
manned SO until he died of starvation June g,
1884. The report says that the cause of his
arrest will probably never be known, but that
although the contIa had been annulled and
the surgeon was under arrest he continued to
exercise the duties of his office until his DEATH
The committee finally comes TO the conclusion
that there was an implied contract and that
Mrs. Pavy ought to have a pension. Mrs.
Pavy, who has been teaching school near
Cincinnati for several years, has gone to

PLAN WHICH WOULD PREVENT STRIKES AM
DISASTROUS COMPETITION.


DISASTROUS COMPETITION.
PITTsBURG, PA, July IA convention of the
miners OF the Connellsville region will be held
tomorrow TO consider proposal for the final
settlement of the wage question on "A sliding
scale basis. The object is TO adjust wages eX-
actly according to the amount OF work done
and in proportion TO the selling price oi coke.
The proposal Is to take the present rates of 90
cents hundred bushels for mining and 63 and
80 cents and over iOr drawing when coke is
selling at S1.5O per ton as a standard. The
minimum would be 81 cents u busnel wnen
coke sells at Sl.2O, which is considered the low
est price at which it could be sold at "A profit
The wages would be scaled up on this basis TO a
81 selling price, which is about as high as coke
has gone in late years. Thus the workmen
would be secured share OF the benefits OF "A
''boom," which they did not have i'll lormer
years. and the existence of a minimum rate Of
wages would check any tendency OF the opera
tors to sell at less than a profitable rate. The
proposal is looked on with lavor among the
workmen, aud is almost certain OF adoption.
Wnen adopted the Knights of Labor OF the re-
gion will be asked TO consider IL, and commits
sioners would be appointed by each orsaniza-
tion TO jointly draft the scale for submission TO
the operators. Its acceptance would render the
repetition OF such a strike as that OF last winter
Impossible.

In yesterday over the veto without reference to

Senator Payne.s Case.
MESsRS. LOGAN, EvARTS AND TELLER WILL

MESSRS. LOGAN, EvARTS AND TELLER WILL Ex-
PLAIN WHY THEY OPPOSED INVESTIGATION.
It Is understood that three reports on the
case of Senator Payne will be made by the Sen.
ate committee. One will be against and one in
favor Of an investigation. The third will be
made by Messrs Evarts, Logan and Teller, who
will explain why they do not recommend an
investigation. These gentlemen say that the
newspaper attacks upon them arise from mis-
apprehension Of the facts. The case had to be
Investigated in legal way and Senators had
to decide as lawyers.
The question before the election committee
was not whether money had or had not been
used at Columbus, Ohio, but whether 1t had or
had not been used to corrupt members of the
Ohio legislature in their votes for Senator. It
appeared in evidence that money was used in
u caucus at which a senatorial nomination was
made, but it did not appear that q dollar was
used in the senatorial election ITSELF They
claim that they have no power to investigate
the proceedings Of a caucus, and there was no
PROOF OF bribery in either house OF legislature
after the caucus md nominated Mr. Payne. On
this ground solely they decided they did.
