took up the urgent deficiency bill, and
the provision inserted by the House, re-
quiring the public printer to rigidly en-
force the eIght-hour law, was stricken
out; yeas 80, nays 20.
Payne offered an amendment, APP
propriating 100000 for the pay of an
assistant custodian and janiJors for
public buildings all over the country
for the current fiscal year, and made a
statement in explanation and advocacy
OF it, showing the reduction in the pay
and service at the New York and Gin
clnnati cuStom-houses for lack Of ap-
preparations. This led to a general
discussion upon the So ject of public
buildings, and Plumb referred
especially to the library building
in Washington regarding which there
was q discussion between him and
voorhees, some time ago.
Another animated debate ensued over
some of the statements made BY Plumb,
regarding the expenses of The Hole in
the Ground" sitter which Payne's
amendment was voted on. 1t was not
agreed to, yeas q, nays "a.

A sIoKENING HORROR.
A Newspaper Office Burned-shock-
ing Details.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, March THE
new Office of the Evening Union was
burned out this afternoon and the blaze
was attended with the most sickening
horror ever witnessed in this city, six
of the employees meeting with terrible
deaths, most of them jumping from
the fifth story and being
CRUSHED INTO sHAPELEss MASSES
below. Six others were badly injured.
The fra was first discovered in the
mailing room, and clouds Of smoke
were pouring out of the lower story
windows before the fifty souls on the
upper floors were aware of their danger.
The flames shot up the old elevator in
the rear. cutting off escape by the stair
way, and most of the employees who
escaped found their way to the ground
by way OF the roof in the rear. The
unfortunate men and women who
crowded into the editorial room,
MET A HORRIBLE FATE.
They were cut of from escape in the rear
and had to face the horrible alternative
of burning TO death or jumping to the
sidewalk below and sustaining frightful
mutilation. The fire department res
pended promptly. but it seemed an age
before it reached the windows of the
9TH story. A ladder was put to the
fourth story and the sight of rescue SO
near seemed to madden the suffering
group at the two windows, who dropped
IN succession to the sidewalk below.
Six fell this way. Some of them were
forced off and some madly leaped and

Fishing in Utah Lake.

TO the Editor of THE HERALD,
see by to-day's HERALD that A. NJ
Musser assets that he is assured by
parties at PROVO, that the many trout
that are being shipped to Denver, are
not caught in Utah Lake. One way to
prove the facts in the case. is: are those
sent to Denver the silver trout? l am
informed that there is no silver trout
found in Utah, only in Utah Lake.
Again, if Mr.. Musser will take the
trouble to come and pay visit to the
shore of the lake, before this is pub
lished, he will find something that will
be more positive than the assurance OF
parties at Provo.
A gentleman who took a sail from
here to Provo last Monday, says from
what he saw, that he will warrant there
are not less than 10000 set hooks to be
found between Lehi and the southern
extremity of the lake,

from nearly all the roads that they will

of those facts, the men declare that as

the crisis has been reached, and that

THE SHARON CASE.

The Supreme Court of California has
affirmed the judgment of Judge Sullivan
of the Superior Court of San Francisco in
the case of Sarah Althea VS.. William
Sharon. The Court holds that the plant.
if and defendant were married according
to the laws of California. The Court,
however, materially reduces the allowance
for. counsel fees and alimony ordered by
the lower court, so that the plaintiff and
her lawyers will not be benefited to any
great extent financially by the decision.
Sarah Althea, who is now the wife Of
Judge Terry, is given alimony to the
amount of 81, 500, and an annual allow
ance of $500, from the Sharon estate.
Thus ends one of the most remarkable
cases ever tried in the California courts,
and which, it is believed. cost the de-
PENDANT at least $3.50, 900, of which $685.
900 was given to Tyler's clerk for forged
document purporting to be an agreement
between the plaintiff and Gumpel, the
penmanship expert.

THE DIVISION OF IDAHO.

The Senate Committee on Territories,
of which Stewart of this State is a mem
Der, heard arguments Monday on the
proposition to divide Idaho Territory.
Governor Stevenson of Idaho opposed the
proposition, and Delegate Voorhees, of
Washington Territory favored it. Both
sides of the question were fully presented,
but what, if any, effect the arguments
had on the Committee is not stated.
A few years ago both political parties
in Idaho favored the annexation of the
three northern counties, which comprise
what is known as the panhandle, to
Washington Territory, and Delegate
Haley, who represented Idaho in the
last Congress, introduced bill for that
purpose and advocated its passage, in ac-
cordance with the principles of the plat.
form on which he was elected. Suisse
quently Boise City politicians repudiated
the pledges which they made to the peo-
pie, and now oppose segregation, though
the citizens of the northern counties are
almost unanimously in favor of it. If
the panhandle is annexed to Washington
Territory, the southern counties will GER.
tainly be annexed to Nevada, with which
they have much in common, the climate,
soil, products and inhabitants being alike.
