CONGRESSIONAL.
sUArk


In the senate on May II, Ma. Mitchell sub
mitted a concurrent resolution expressing it
to be the sense of congress that negotia-
tions should be entered into between the
United States and the Chinese government
with view of securing such notifications
to the present treaty with China as may re-
suit in stopping the coming of Chinese to
this country, except In cases of diplomats
and their servants: except also in the case of
ty. Referred to the committee IN foreign
relations. Consideration of the interstate
commerce bill was then resumed. A pro-
tracted debate arose on the various amend
ments, especially the amendment to the
long and short haul clause. In the coure of
the debate Mr.. ingalls, said the bill was be-
coming more and more metaphysical as it
proceeded. The tronble was that the sena
tors were not practiced railroad men, bu
were dealing with practiced railroad cues
tions. He thought the matter Immediately
under consideration as to the details of the
long and short haul should be left to be
dealt with by the proposed commission.
After fs-ther discussion the, bill then came
% voIe and was passed-yeas Al. nays T.
Messrs. Fr6wn, Colquitt, Morgan and RAN
som voted In the negative, and a number of
pairs were announced. Adjourned. The PEN
sion bill comes up tomorrow.
In the senate on May IL bill was passed
creating new judicial circuit of the
United States. Under the bill tie Eighth
circuit is made to include Nebraska, Kan
sas, Arkansas and Colorado; the Ninth to
include Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri; the
Tenth to include California, Oregon and
present judge of the Ninthcircuit heretofore
constituted (being California, Oregon and
Nevada), shall BE- judge Of the Tenth .circuit

HORRIBLE DEATHS.
XEN1A, O., May 1a-Iu the midst Of the
storm, about 10 o'clock last night, the hro
number of people responded, but directly
the second alarm brought out the wh0lo
town. 1t was soon learned that Shawnee
creek, that heretofore harmless little stream,
was out of its banks and sweeping ever -
thing before it. Standing on the banks Of
this mighty stream, in the rain a..d dark
ness, it was an appalling situation. There
was no hight, and above the roar of the an.
CRY waters and the flashing lightning and
thunder, came the cry for help from the
drowning people. Men rushed from The
shore into the stream. Others ran in 0ther
directions for ropes, ladders, lights and
boats. At the corner of Detroit and Water
streets bonfire of store boxes, kept up with
coal oil, was built. and n.ne persons were
rescued from the Firguson house, and also
some people from the old Heaton house. AZ
the Main street bridge the terrible tide
had fairly piled the debris of ruined HOUSE,
in an awful mass, among which several deed
bodies we're found this morning.:

awful fate. Afterwards two of his LITTLE

the new Ninth district. At o'clock the
general pension bill was placed before the
senate. Mr.. Blair explained that it was in
tended to provide for those disabled Union
soldiers of the late war who had found II
impossible, without their own fault whether
by loss of papers or death of witnesses) to
prove their cases under the existing law.
He said it provided aid for all soldiers, who,
having served six months or more, had be-
come disabled since their service, from any
cause not due to their own vicious conduct,
and who were now dependent upon their
manual labor, or on the contributions of
others not legally liable for their support.
The highest pension under the bill, Mr..
Blair added, would be 1924 month for total
helplessness, and proportionately less for
less disability. After some discussion the
senate adjourned without action.
In the senate on May II after the routine
called up the house shipping bill, entitled ga
bill to abolish certain fees for official ser
vices to American vessels, and to amend the
laws relating to shipping commissioners
seamen and owners of vessels" The bill
having Deen read, Mr.. Frye moved to add to
it as q new section the provisions of the bill
recently reported by him from the commit
tee en- commerce, authorizing the president
10 issue q proclamation whenever he may
deem proper, denying 10 VeSSelS VI !Olelgu
countries such privileges as are denied in
such foreign countries to vessels of the
United States. The provision of Mr.. Frye's
bill is not confined to Canada, but is made
general, SO as to apply to all foreign coun-
tries. Proceeding to the calendar the SEN
ate passed the following measures. A bill

He Got His Customer.
Dry Goods Reporter,

Dry Goods Reporter,
The following story is told Of an en-
terprising New York jobber, the events
having taken place some years ago: Tho
merchant in question, having heard Of
the arrival of country trader who was
known to be large purchaser and OF nm
questionable credit, was resolved to get
him to visit his establishment, and, ones
there, he felt sure he could secure him ~
customer. He accordingly sent out
one OF his drummers, OF whom he had
quite number, adapted to every taste
and disposition. The one sent however,
returned without success. No 2 va
dispatched, with no better success, md.
again No. 3, and so on, until all had
gone and come back without their man.
The merchant now determined to go
himself. and finding that brandy and
water and free tickets to the rheater
was of no avail, for the country trader
did not take one or go to the other, ho-
was reduced to the necessity OF employ
ing ruse, which, as the sequel shows,
was simple as well as effectual On TAX
ing his departure, after pleasant inter
view, the merchant took care to commit
the mistake" Of taking the traders hst
instead of his own. Next morning, as
was expected, the merchant received
prompt visit at his store from the country
trader, who called to look up the bat
which he supposed had been hurriediy
exchans ed. This was what the mar
chant wanted, and through this means
soil good bill Of goGIs and secured =
regular customer.

PfrrsBURG, PA, May 15.-The Chicago ex-
press ON the Fort Wayne railway had rough
experience passing through the tornado
which struck Eastern Ohio last night. The
lightning flashed from the time they lefe
Fort Wayne, at 5 D. m, and the rain de-
scended almost steadily until Lima, Ohio
was passed. Such storm the passengers
had never seen before. The wind steadily
increased in fury, and the breaking of tho
trees and the rushing sibilatiOn Of telegraph
wires made concert of wild sounds. When
about three miles from Kirby the storm was
at its height. Suddenly there was dull
roar in the distance and then cyclone tore
across the level plain on the south side Of
the track, and catching big tree tore il mp
by the roots, aud flung il across the cara
One limb struck the locomotive and cut Tho

and the two pullman sleepers. Telegraph,
poles came dancing down at the same time
and rocks and bushes flew through the air in
q riotOus manner. The car windows were
smashed to pieces, cracked and splint~re6
and the glass flew in every direction. The
train kept on the rails and was brought to .
standstill within 200 yards. The cars wero
into a crowd of excited men
The railroad men kept fairly cool. Tho
storm continued. 1t is remarkable that
very few passengers we're hurt.
At Albion, Mich, number of stores ana

extent of about $3O, loo.
THE DAMAGE IN OHIO.
DAYTON, o., May 15.-The latest intelIi-
gence from throughout this county and tho
western section of Greene county adds TO Ito
destruction wrought by the tornado
Wednesday night. No place in this county
has yet been heard from where property was
not damaged to a great extent. No lives
we're lost in this section, although great
many per- ons were injured. A careful e~ti-
mate of the losses for Dayton and surround
ing country, on all classes of property andi
crops, aggregate nearly $2,00O,0OO, and il -
believed that the total damage in the nine
counties swept by the food ,nd tornado will
make at least 5000 ,0CO more.
