THE PREMIER DEFEATED.
The Home Rule Bill Fails to Pass a Second
Reading-The Victory of the Opposition
Won by Vote of BAL to 81.
London cablegram.l

London cablegram.l
The Government was defeated by a ma
jority of thirty on the second reading of
the home rule bill. The vote on the bill
was 81 for the measure and 341 against it.
Mr.. Gladstone moved an adjournment until
Thursday and the motion was adopted.
Mr.. Gladstone entered the House Of
Commons at 4:55 o'clock this afternoon
9TH and proceeded straight to his seat.
When his presence was noted he was greet
ed with tremendous cheering. The Premier
wore white rose in his lapel. The House
of Commons was crowded to its utmost
capacity at the hour Of opening the session.
The Opposition loudly cheered John Bright
and Lord Harrington as they entered and
took their places. The Parnellites were all
in good voice, and they gave MIR. Gladstone
an enthusiastic welcome.
The excitement during division had no
parallel IN the history of the House of
Commons. Lord Randolph Churchill first
discovered the Government was defeated,
and by waving his hat and indulging in
other joyful demonstrations aroused the
enthusiasm of members OF the Opposition,
who, rising, waved their hats and cheered
again and again. When the figures were
announced the noise was deafening. Par
nellites challenged the vote. O'Conno'
called for cheers for the Grand Old Man,
which were given with gusto by the Gov
eminent supporters. Sir William Har-
court and his companions rose and
bowed to Gladstone, who was somewhat
embarrassed. The Parnellites called for
groans for Chamberlain, which were given
with shouts of "Traitor!" and "Judas Is
cariot!" Chamberlain merely laughed.
When order was restored Gladstone rose,
white and trembling, and moved to adjourn
until Thursday. Hesley and O'Connor
again challenged the vote, saying they
would not offer any opposition, but wished
to express their repugnance of the conduct
of many members of Gladstones party.
During the hubbub Gladstone, wearing
haggard look, left the House cheered by
his opponents.

Judge PaysOn's Land Bill.
Washington special.


Judge Payson's land bill, passed by the
House of Representatives, repeating the pre-
emption, desert land, and timber-culturs
laws and amending the Communication pro-
vision of the homestead law, after provid-
ing for the repeal of the pre- exemption law
allows bona tide claims to be perfected,
and also permits q second homestead entry
in lieu of the pre- emption privilege TO any
person who has not had the benefit
of presumption and who has failed
from any cause except by sale or
disposal Of his right thereto o'perfect
title to a tract of land heretofore entered by
him. The second section, in repeating the
timber culture act, makes provision for
perfecting bona-fide claims lawfully in
itiated before the passage of the act. Sec
ton 3 amends the homestead act by allow
ing the minimum price for the quantity of
land entered to be paid at any time after
the expiration of thirty calendar months
from the date of entry, the proof of actual
settlement to be filed six months prior to
the application for patent. Section 4,
in repeating the desert-land act,
makes the usual reservation for CON-
plotting lawfully entered claims. The fifth
section withdraws from public sale and
private entry all lands except isolated and
disconnected fractional parts, mineral
lands, and others of local nature. Section
6 preserves the right to transfer portions of
the settlers entry under homestead or pre-
emption for church, cemetery, or school
purposes, or right of way for railroads.
Judge Payson says the repeal will not
affect the right of soldiers to the public
lands in any way. Their right is under the
homestead law, which is simply amended
so as to increase the time of Communication
to thirty months.

years on physiology and hygiene. until he
settled in Boston, and there developed his
system of exercise for schools and homes,
teaching that the body should be trained
as well as the mind to insure the perfect de-
velopment of the human being. He opened
a school for young ladies at Lexington,
Mass, where he could embody his ideas Of
physical training, and he had great success,
the school numbering some one hundred
and sixty pupils, many of them broken
down invalids from other institutions. The
building was burned in 1867. Since then
he has devoted himself to lecturing and
writing on health subjects. He was the
originator of the Woman's Temperance
Crusade in Ohio. He spent his last few
years in New York and vicinity and removed
to Yonkers in September last.
For the two years preceding his death
he published in New York DiO Le,cis' Mug

on his favorite topic of hygienic education
include "New Gymnastics, ""Weak Lungs,

A CORRESPONDENT of the Chicago
Journal tells of an interesting surgical
operation which he witnessed in one of
the hospitals of that city: 1T consist
ed Of what is known as INTIMIDATION Of
the larynx,' an operation which is SUI
perseding tracheotomy or cutting into
the windpipe and larynx. The patient
was a little child almost suffocating
from the effects of membraneous Group.
Hitherto children so afflicted or suffer
ing from diptheria have had to under
go the old-fashioned process of cutting
from outside, an operation at once
cruel and painful. Many children
have succumbed to these diseases be-
cause their parents objected to
tracheotomy and the dreadful pains
their children would have to endure,
but it would appear. from the expert
ence and evidence of experts, that this
oldfogy carving is to be shelved. In
inturbation the operation consists of
passing a small silver tube through the
mouth and down to the vocal chords,
through which it is passed. The han
die or carrier" is then detached
by spring and withdrawn, leav-
ing the little tube in position, a
flange at its superior extremity
preventing its slipping through the
vocal cords into the windpipe.
By the introduction of the tube
instant relief from suffocation is OBJ
tanned. and the child falls at once into
an easy, refreshing sleep. After three
or four days the handle is passed down
the throat and attached by simple
mechanism, and the tube brought out
BY this means the patient is afforded
free breathing and respiration, and,

soon RECEIVERS. In explaining the oper-
alton to a postgraduate class, Pro-
lessor Green said: Il regard this opera
ton as triumph in surgery, as it is
bloodless, painless. rapid, and leaves
no open wound subject to infection.
The old operation of cutting into the
windpipe was horrifying to the mother,
who usu lily hesitated between sure
death by, suffocation and the obligation
to see her offspring vince under the
oftentimes brutal surgeons knife. She
would not, as a rule, submit her babe
to the sanguinary operation until the
poison had taken hold of the sy stem,
and all hope was lost"

and Eighteenth streets, observed flames
issuing from the basement of the two story
frame building Nos. 731 and 1888 South
Canal street about 3 o'clock yesterday
morning. Schleier's first attempt to give
an alarm was failure, owing to his not
understanding the working of the box, and
when he saw that no apparatus responded
he telephoned to the Twelfth Street
Station, from which point the fire depart
ment was notified.
When the department arrived the two
buildings we're enveloped in flames. The
work of subduing the fire was brief. En-
CINE No. 20 first reached the scene. Capt.
Schimmels placed his men, and himself
hurried to the rear where he elevated lad
der and raised the windows. As the smoke
lifted he beheld terrible sight. Huddled
together in one room whittier they had
rushed in their race for life lay eight human
beings. Capt. Schimmels' men conveyed
them to the sidewalk as rapidly as possible,
where they were identified as follows:
Michael Murphy, aged As, an employe Of
the South Division Railway Company.
Mrs. Annie Murphy, wife of Michael,
aged 40.
Nellie Murphy, aged IL.
Annie Murphy, aged 10.
Aggie Murphy, aged /.
Mrs. Mary Durkin, aged 20.
Patsy LAWN, aged 4, a son Of Mrs. Dur
kin.
The firemen came very near missing the
only survivor of the terrible experience on
that floor, the tiny 3-weeks-old child Of
Mrs. Durkin. A heavy shawl, it seems,
kept out the heat and smoke and saved its
life. The child is doing we'll at the Coun-
ty Hospital.
Exploring the ruins further the firemen
discovered the body of William Hahn, a
butcher, aged 65, in bedroom in the rear
of the second story at No. 731. The old
man lived there with his son William. The
latter saved his wife and children and
jumped from the front window to the street.
He aroused his father, and thought he
might make his way out alone, but, being
SO feecle, the old man succumbed.
John Rawleigh, who occupied the ground
floor Of No. 1913, stated yesterday that this
was the third time within year the prem
Uses had been fired. He reverts to the ar
rest of man named Savage for burglary O
year ago, in which Mr.. Rawleigh and his
father, the owner of No. 1873, assisted. The
friends of the prisoner, who received five
years in the penitentiary, ii is said, swore
revenge against the Rawleighs, and two
days after the arrest the premises were on
fire. Nine days later the building was
again fired. Each time rags saturated with
oil were found in the basement.
Rawleigh and the Waterman say that the
flames seemed to break ont simultaneously
from several parts of the building.

In the city of Pesth practical scien-
fists are engaged on an experiment
which should be regarded with the ut
most interest in this country. 1t is to
supply the city with warm water de-
rived from subterranean sources. An
artesian well, the deepest in the world,
has been bored to depth of about one
thousand yards. The work was under
taken by two Hungarians, the city of
Pesth contributing 5000, 900 toward ex-
penses. Already there is a supply of
1850 gallons day at temperature
of 161 degrees, rising to height of
thirty-five feet above the surface, and
the work is to be continued until the
temperature, which progresses regular
ly as the borings descend, rises to 17S
degrees, and then no doubt is felt that
there will be bubbling perennial
stream sufficient to meet all the wants
of the city and to convert the surround
ing region into tropical garden.

age of 1872, who had passed seventy
years in that institution. During this
time the woman, whose name was Sos

never been seriously i'll; her sight was
so marvelously preserved that to the
day of her death her vision was per-
fectly clear. Her memory and intelli-

last. The workhouse at which Miss
Sosnitzki died has at present another

present similar case of longevity.
