the robbers entered the car, rifled Kstchsm's

seemed to have been frightened away. probably
by the failure Of their partner sent to take pos

was bold enough to go back after the robbers,
and thought he saw them take skiff aud row
across the river. An outgoing train on tho
same road was shot at in the vicinity of whore
the incoming train was attacked.
An operation was performed on Baggage
master Ketcham at 1890, of most critical
nature. He endured it well, and there il bare
possibility that he may recover, though his con-

iy the feature placing wool on the free
list. In the course of his remarks, he sug-
gested that the committee on ways and
means knew that the bill could not be
passed. If there was any hopeful member
of that committee, he (Mr. Taylor would
tell him that the bill would never become
law. Did the gentleman from Kentucky
(Mr, Breckinridge) think it wouldi
Mr.. Breckinridge replied that he was un-
der the impression that the bill would pass
the house, and if it did that would be pre-
sumptive evidence that it ought to pass the
senate Laughter
Mr. Taylor-Did you think it would pass
the senate9
Mr.. Breckinridge-I can hardly say do,
because it is the republican side. | only
hoped it would see the error of its ways and
would do this good thing, to the disappoint-
ment of both sides Of the house. Laughter. J
A WIDE DIVERGENCE.
Mr. Kennedy, of Ohio, directed his
speech to consideration of the methods fol-
lowed by the democratic party in carrying
elections in the south, declaring that they
were carried by fraud, outrage and intimi-
datlon. Southern elections, he said, were
an infamous assault on the fundamental
principles of republican government He
knew he would be accused of waving the
bloody shirt" A man who believed in
purity of the ballot and was
willing to plead for a fair election
was called a disseminator of vicious doc
trines, whose arguments were to be treated
with derision and contempt, and was to be
branded as a traitor to the peace of the
union. But the demand for fair elections
would not cease until the ballot box in
Georgia was as honest as the ballot box in
Indiana.
Pending further debate, the house at 5
o'clock took a recess until s o'clock, the
evening session to be for consideration of
various private pension bills, to which oppo-
sition has been shown in Friday evening

BERLIN, July 12.-The North German
Gazette says: The Servian government
has applied TO tho Prussian authorities for
assistance in taking the Servian crown
prince back to Belgrade. Such a request
has been acceded TO when coming from q
private person. In the present instance it
is question not merely of assertion of
parental authority, but of the exercise Of
the sovereign rights of King Milan toward
his son and ubject The Prussian authori-
ties have summoned Queen Natalie to de-
liver the crown prince to King Milan's
plenipotontiaries.
ARMS HER HOUSEHOLD.
The Queen has refused and has threatened
to forcibly resist the removal of the prince.
She has armed the members of her house
hold for the purpose of Offering resistance.
1t is undesirable that Prussia should see her
authority disregarded In her own territory
or Servian disputes fought out at Wiesba-
den. The government therefore desires
Queen Natalie to leave Germany unless she
is willing to subject herself to magisterial
authority"

the radical left. proposed immediate sup
preston of the religious congregations on

PERIL IN IMMIGRATION.
The House Votes for Committee of
Investigation.

The House Votes for Committee of
Investigation.
WASHINGTON, July 12-In the house this
morning Mr.. Ford of Michigan, from the
committee on military affairs, reported
back the resolution for the appointment of
a special committee to investigate alleged
evasions of the contract labor law. Mr..
Oates of Alabama spoke of the Importance
of the subject matter of the inquiry, and
thought the committee should be composed
of the best men in the house.
In reply to a question by Mr.. Vandever
of California. Mr.. Ford stqted that the res
olution was broad enough in scope to cover
the subject of any evasion of the law
against Chinese immigration.
Mr.. Cox of New York called the attention
of the house to the great necessity Of this
resolution to correct abuses now existing.
ABNORMAL IMMIGRATION.
There was abnormal immigration to this
country by men persuaded to come here by
false and fraudulent pretenses. Instead of
there being ordinary immigration from
Italy, Italians were coming into this coun-
try at the rate of $4,000 year under infiu-
ences that should be inquired into. There
had come into New York in one month so,
600 who did not know our language and
who added nothing to our wealth and labor.
Mr. Morrow of California was glad that
the house at last comprehended the evil
besetting the country from unrestricted
immigration. The Pacific coast had been
confronted with that question for thirty
years, and representatives of that section
had been declaring over and over again
that Chinese immigration could not be
assimlated. Now New York was CON
fronted by the same condition of affairs.
Immigrants were coming in there as slaves,
precisely as the Chinese cam6 into San
Francisco. After an Intellectual effort by
Mr. Holman of Indiana to limit the ex-
penses to 50, 900, the resolution was adopted.

PITTsBURG, July 12.-The waters that
have been sweeping the valley of the

sixty hours are again falling into their
natural channels. They leave in their
track scenes of desolation and ruin that
have never had their counterpart in the
same localities. From Pittsburg to the

OVER 1000, 600 IN LOSSES
The losses entailed by the food will not
fall short Of $4,000, 900, a large proportion
of which falls with crushing effect upon the
people of the thriving counties of MOnon-
gala, Marion, Taylor, Harrison, Lewis,
Barbour, Upshur and Randolph in West
Virginia. In Pennsylvania the losses are
in the counties of Allegheny, Washington,
Westmoreland, Fayette and Greene, the
heaviest being in Allegheny, Washington

upon the owners of coal property, railroad
companies and farmers. Notwithstanding
the suddenness of the coming of the water
the loss of fats, barges and smaller river
