THIS WEEK IN CONGRESS.
The House Lays Out Regula
Program of Work.

The House Lays Out a Regular
Program of Work.
WASHINGTON, May 9.-Hereafter the
daily sessions of the house of representa-
tlves will begin at II o'clock. The assign
ments OF the week are as follows: Monday
latter the call of States) TO the committee
on the District of Columbia for bills of
local interest, the most important of which
is thai providing for a bridge across the
Potomac; Tuesday, to the committee on
private bonds claims; Thursday to the COM
mlttee on agriculture, and Saturday to the
consideration OF the joint resolution pro-
vldlng Tor commission to inquire into
Indian affairs. There are, however,
number of important measures
not thus provided for, among them
the interstate commerce. the electoral
courts and the Immigrant forfeiture bills.
which were made special orders for dates
long passed, whose supporters will contest
the floor with some of the committees
named, while the army and the diplomatic
appropriation bills are likely to be passed
and cause further disarrangement of the
assignment. Again, it is among the posi-
bilitieS OF the weekthat
A LONG DISCUSSION
may arise upon the subsidy amendment to
the postoffice bill, the presidents message
regarding private pension bills, or the prop
osition to permit the Offering of amend
ments to general pension bills, to provide
in each for taxation to meet it's own re-
quired expenditures. The tariff debate is
not now expected to begin this week.
The senate has unanimously consented
to devote tomorrow and Tuesday
to the discussion of the Interstate COM
merce bill and the vote upon the measure
before adjournment ON Tuesday. 1t is the
understanding that the general pension
bills shall not be taken up, and that the
bankruptcy bill, the open session reso-
luton, the Chinese restriction bill, and the
Pacific railroad debt extension bill shall fol-
low i'll their order. 1t is possible, however,
that not more than one or two of these
will be disposed of during the
coming week. The appropriation commit
tee has the agricultural, the pension and
the District of Columbia appropriation bills
under consideration, and its sub committee
have made such progress that one or more
OF them may be brought in speedily if de-
sired, but none are likely to be reported or
brought up for action this week.

AN 1NJUDICIoUs MOVEMENT.

Inc GLOBES New York special tells of
a. formidable movement Oh foot to GUST
PowDERLY from the head of the Knights
OF Labor organization and to substitute
MARTIN IRONS in his place. If the move
ment succeeds it will be bad days work
Tor the labor organization. Mr.. Pow
Derby has proved himself leader of rare
wisdom and possessed of splendid execu-
i've ability. All that the public knows of
ME-. IRONS is in connection with the
southwestern strike and the failure
he made in that instance does not
commend him to public esteem. 1t is true
that FoWDERLY suffered himself to be out
witted by JAY GOULD, but that does not
signify lack of ability so much as did an
oVer-conhdence in human nature. With this
single exception, PowDERLY's admins
tration has been marked with a clearness,
foresight and conservatism that has excited
the admiration of all classes. On the other
hand, MARTIN IRONS management of the
southwestern strike was series of blum
ders, coupled with an ineXcusable bull
medicines from the time he ordered the
strike until the day he ground arms to the
railway management. 1t is evident that
Irons is being pushed by the reckless agi-
tators who are FESTIVE under PowDERLY's
conservative leadership. Ballast is what
the labor organizations need now above all
things else, and if PowDERLY is thrown
overheard the labor vessel will be in bad
shape to encounter the storms which are n
its course

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
The Dakota Militia Heard From

To the Editor of the Globe.
In an editorial May 6, headed "Call For
Federal Troops" you were pleased to say that
one company of United States regulars can
be more effective than the whole militia of a
state, and that a mob has a sort of con-
tempt for tin soldiers, The above remarks
strike home TO three or four thousand well
drilled citizen soldiers in Minnesota and
Dakota, and without commenting upon your
remarks 1 will ask: Are the facts
you state true because COM
pany or regiment of militia whenever
called upon to suppress mob are supplied
with blank cartridges and Differed by a lot
of inexperienced men, or that the rank and
file is inferior in intellect, discipline and cour-
age to the regulars?
l might refer you to the conduct of the
Wisconsin militia in Milwaukee the other day,
and conclude by saying without the least in
tention of boasting that the Dakota militia,
Differed as it is by veterans of the late war,
would quell a riot as effectually as any regu-
lar organization, provided, of course, they
were not asked by the politicians in authority
to bluff the mob with blank cartridges.

SEIZURE OF THE ADAMS.
Hon. Sachville West Thinks Ma tie RS
Will Turn Out Right.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-The Post to-
morrow will publish an interview with Hon.
L. Sachville West, the British minister, in
regard to the seizure of the United States
vessel Adams by the Canadian authorities,
in which he says:
have had no Official correspondence upon
the fisheries question this year. You see that
matter is in the hands of the Dominion
authorities at its present stage. They CORES
spond directly with the colonial Office in Lon
don, and it is not until some action is taken
by the imperial government that should be
called upon to act in the matter with the United
States. I don't apprehend this question is
going to cause any serious differences be-
tween the two countries. OF course the
seizure of the Adams at Digby will increase
the unpleasantness which is felt on
both sides. Everything might have
been avoided had congress taken
the advice of the administration and ap-
pointed commission to inquire into the
whole dispute. But 1t has chosen not to do
so, led by Senator Frye, who really does not
seem to care what he says. Congress has de-
nouncea the treaty Of 1854, ithas denounced

EVANSVILLE, Ind, May 9.-When the
City of greensboro left Henderson this aft
ernoon, she had On board Ben Lewis,
colored, and companion. On the way up
Lewis got into an alteration with Monroe
Hunter, the barber of the boat, and struck
him several times. He then drew his re-
'volver and shot at him without
effect. Hunter fled to the pam
try to hide, and Lewis followed
him, with the remark that he would ''have
his life" AS he entered the pantry he
drew his revolver. when Monroe, in self
defense, shot him through the heart. When
man was somewhat of a desperate, while
Hunter was an inoffensive, quiet man.

REGULARS VERSUS MULTI

REG ULARS VERSUS MILITIA.
4 correspondent, writing from Crystal
Springs. Oak. who believes that militia
man is as effective and reliable i'll a riot as
a regular, asks the GLOBE whether the
failures in several instances of the local
militia to suppress mobS have been due to
the fact that they were supplied with
blank cartridges and Differed by lot of
inexperienced men, or whether it is owing
TO lack of courage, intellect and discipline
in the rank and file of the militia. Most
unquestionably it is not from The
last named cause un'css it be in
the matter of discipline. AS a
rule the militia organizations are composed
pt as brave and as intellectual men as ever
followed NAPOLEON BoNAPARTE or
ULYSSES S. GRANT. The difference in
the effectiveness of the two organizations
the local militia and the regular'army-in
dealing with q mob is about the same diff
ference there would be in the work of a
skilled artisan and one who had only a
smattering knowledge of trade. The reg
ulars are soldiers by profession, and war is
their trade. With the militia soldering is
a pastime and war an incident. That
is one distinct difference. Another
is that in nearly every case where
riot occurs there is more or less a
personal relation existing between the
rioters and the militia men, which makes
it an extremely difficult matter to persuade
The latter that it is their duty to shoot down
men with whom they are acquainted and
for whom they may have the kindest per.
sonal feelings. and the rioters know it.
The regular soldier is a machine who knows
nothing but to obey orders. But the most
important difference is this, that the uni
form of the regular soldier is the symbol of
power which even mobs dare not disre-
gard. IiShis person is embodied the power
of the greatest nation of earth, and the
rioters know that, too.
The GLOBE recognizes the courage of the
Wisconsin militia during the late troubles
at Milwaukee, and cheerfully bears testi-
mony to their efficiency and fidelity to
duty. AT the same we feel warranted
in saying that if company of United States
troops had been stationed at Milwaukee
there would have been no necessity for
blood-shedding. Their presence would
have awed the mob into submission to the
laws. They could not have done more
than the Wisconsin militia in quelling the
mob and restoring peace, but they would
have done it without firing gun or sacri-
ticing human life. That is what the
GLOBE means when it says that regulars
are more effective in such emergencies than
the local military organizations.

KILLED WITH A nlAI,LEr
An Incident of the Recent Demon.
strafion in Chicago.

-
Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, May "A common saloon
brawl OF week ago, to which no attention
was paid at the time, to-day resulted in a
homicide. Last Monday afternoon, in the
saloon of Chris Weld. at the corner of State
and Forsythe streets, three men were ell
gagged in dispute concerning the pres
ent labor difficulties. Two of them.
Charles Seidschaig and Emil Berger, had
taken opposite sides of the question, and
shortly after their conversation began were
engaged in a heated dispute. Suddenly
Seidschaig sized a small wooden mallet
and dealt Berger a severe blow in the side
OF the head, just below the left
ear. Berger staggered under the eff
fects of the blow for an instant,
but the men were separated before further
blows could be exchanged. Both men soon
afterward left the place. Friday, Berger
complained to his wife of feeling ill, and
remained home during the day. Saturday
a physician was called, and at once pro-
nounced the case serious one, hemorrhage
OF the brain having set in as result of the
blow OF the mallet. To-day Berger sank
rapidly, and about o'clock in the
afternoon he breathed his last. The police
were not notified of the affair until Satur-
Jay night. In the meantime Seidschaig
mao learned OF Berger's precarious condition
anu mad Detaken himself to hiding place.
Inc pollce declared Yesterday that they
were on the track of the man who had
dealt the fatal blow, and would have him
placed behind the bars before MANY hours.

AFTER THE BALL.

She counts her conquests all as naught
Before this browning one
The love that seemed to come unsought,
Like SplendorS of the sun;
And every word he spoke tonight
Is craven on her brain
In letters of auroral light
Forever to remain.
She lays her lips upon the hands
His fervent lips have kissed;
And DER her clear eyes as she stands
There comes happy mist. J
What was her charm in form or face
. Ger others at the ball
That he should do her such a grace
AS choose her mid them ALL?
She casts her shining silks aside,
And robes her for her rest;
Her only dream till morning tide,
HE loves me-loveS me best"
o, virgin faithl D, face so sweet
O, heart that pulses true!
Will any mans heart ever beat
AS Loyalty for you?
He leaves the ball, but not for rest,
And not for faithful dream;
Life needs, it seems, another Zest
Where Lais reigns supreme.
Fill high the beaker with champagne,
And crown the board with f1owrs;
A husband may not know again
Such gay Bohemian hours.
Not his the love that lives for aye,
Not his the loyal troth;
His passion lasts summer day,
He swears traitors oath.
So take the moral mid the strife
OF Hymeneal plans,
That love is all woman's life,
And only half a mans.

A Story of Blood.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, May 9.-Thomas
James, saloonkeeper at Hazleton, a
suburb of this city, was fatally shot this
afternoon by William Powers, alias Nc
Carthy, molder. Powers had an alterca-
ton with Burt Hanson, an iron worker,
and drawing a revolver endeavored to
shoot him. James. in the effort to
separate them, was shot in the right groin,
the bullet cutting into the intestines.
Powers shot Andrew Lattan year ago
because the latter objected to his attentions
to his daughter. James, who is slowly
sinking, resides in the house where Julius
Gilmand was murdered last Thanksgiving.
Powers was arrested and will be held for
hearing

with branches of trees and wrecks of light
out-buildings. No cases of personal injury
have been reported.

Tracklaying of the Northwestern.
Special to the Globe

CHICAGO, May 9.-Tracklaying will be-
gin to-day on the Northwestern extensions
from Buffalo Gap to Rapid City. 1t was
rumored that all of the force of the COM
pany was to have been concentrated on the
main line westward to Fort Fetterman. but
this seems to have been a mis-
take. The branch into the heart
of the Black Hills will be
completed by Aug. 1, and possibly before if
the bridge-builders finish their contracts.
The Northwestern is also rushing the Mis-
souri, Valley division toward Fort Fetter-
man at great rate, and will reach its
objective point early in August. Its haste
is explained by its desire to secure
the live stock traffic of Southwestern
Montana and northern Wyoming, which it
will be in position to command so soon as
it reaches the objective point. Already it's
agents are in Montana, soliciting the trade
which no doubt it will get, as its adj
vantages of location practically shut its
only competitor, the Northern Pacific. out
of the field.

Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas Ward. the

Ward is handsome woman of 20, and it

nothing was thought to be wrong owing to
her social standing in the community, and
his being deacon and an earnest worker

that Price and Mrs. Ward had eloped, the
former taking with him large amount of
cash and the latter abandoning her two
