WASHINGTON. d. c., March 30-The house
committee on invalid pensioners to-day ap-
pointed subcommittee, consisting of Chair
man Matson and Messrs. Walker and Nor
rill, to take under consideration and report
to the full committee on various bills now
before congress, looking to the repeal of
limitation claims, fixing January /, 1880. in
arrears of pension of act 1879, as q remedy
for which all claims for arrears of pensions
had to be fixed. General Black, commls-
sioner of pensions, has estimated that it will
take between 500, OO0, 600 and $500, COX, 900 to
pay all claims for arrears in pensions,
should the limitations clause be repealed.
Mr.. Tarsney, of Michigan, addressed the
house in opposition to the bills granting q
pension of $4,000 per annum to Mary s.
Logan and increasing to $4,000 per annum
the pension of Apalina A. Blair. He de-
clared that the democratic administration
had treated the ex-soldiers more fairly and
literally than any administration since the
close of the war. A spirited debate followed.
After further discussion, participated in by
large number of representatives, the
Logan bill was passed. Yeas 154, nays IS.
The Blair bill was also passed. Yeas 148,
nays 81.
The house then took recess until p. M,

ton of private pension bills.
The house at its evening session passed
twenty four pension bills, and at 1920 adj
journed until tomorrow.

NEW YORK, March 29.-The Sun this

sued their call for national convention in

some time ago by W. W. Bailey,
Of Chicago, to call a conference on
July 4 if he could get 1C0 signers to call,
but understood it was to be simply con-
ference and not convention. When know
more about it may go to 1t, but if they pro-
pose to nominate candidates for president

by McMathews, McGlynn, Barnes and

will sit at the same time that the united la
Dor party delegates are there, and if the two
can combine it has power to become con-
ven.ion and nominate candidates.

Strike Troubles.

AURORA, ILL.,, March Safeguarding the
burning of the Chicago, Burlington & Quin-
cy paint shop, one-half of the building had
been fitted up for hotel for the new engi-
in their beds when the fire broke out. They
had just time to grasp their clothes and get
out before the building was a mass of
flames. The burned out men were quartered
in other buildings for the night. Several of
them were assaulted by unknown parties as
they rushed about the yards seeking shelter
and are now nursing sore heads. A dis
patch received by the Burlington officials
from Aurora, ILL.,, says the fire broke out in
the indications point strongly to incendiar-
ism.
CHICAGO, March 3O.-This forenoon, a
squad of special police for the st. Paul
road reached the yards from Milwaukee and
intermediate stations and were given quar-
tiers in the freight house and sleeping cars.
They will be fed in dining cars and kept on
bers 165.
AT MILWAUKEE.
MILWAUKEE, March 3O.-Up to tonight
there were no indications that the strike of
the Chicago switchmen would extend to this
city. Orders were issued to the yardmasters
in the several yards to hold all cars loaded
with Chicago freight, consequently
the men had little to do but
discuss the situation. All of the
engine dispatchers employed in the Chicago
Milwaukee & St. Paul round houses were
called to headquarters this morning and Of
fered the places made vacant by the strike
of the switch engineers, but they declined to
man. Only passenger trains arrived from
Chicago to-day.
General Manager Rcsewell Miller said
they were rapidly filling the places of the
strikers.
AT QUINCY, Ill.
QUINCY, ILL, March 3O-The switchmen
in the Quincy yards received orders this
morning to strike, and accordingly all but
five of them left their posts about $50
o'clock. The strikers gave no notice to talk
to any one on the subject.
At the headquarters of the Brotherhood
this evening the announcement was made
authoritively that the Brotherhood on the
Milwaukee & st. Paul road from Chicago to
Savannah, ILL.,, and Milwaukee had left
their engines and would stay out till the
20" trouble was settled. 1t was
thought that unless they went
back within very short time
a general strike on the st. Paul System
would result, and the general boycott has
already extended to that road pending ad-
justment of the matter. About $50 mon, it
was asserted at Brotherhood headquarters,
are out on the Milwaukee d st. Paul.

FIFI'IETH CONGRESS.
Tuesday.


WASHINGTON, d. c., March N.-The sen
ate. on motion of MI. Hoar, accepted an
invitation to attend the funeral service over
the remains Of Chief Justice Waite in the
hall OF the house tomorrow.
Mr.. Blair renewed his motion for the
reference of his bill to discriminate in favor
OF the confederate soldiers and sailors in
appointing to civil offices sny persons who
have been disloyal.
On motion of Mr.. Sherman a committee
OF nye senators to attend the funeral of the
late chief Justice at Toledo was orderea, and
Senators Sherman, Allison, Everts, George
and Gray were appointed.
The senate then adjourned to meet at
u:3O tomorrow.
WASHINGTON, D. c.; March N.-The gen-
eral public land bill was called up by Mr..
Holman.
Mr.. Felton,, of California, moved to amend
by striking out the clause permitting per-
son who has declared his intention of be-
coming citizen to enter public lands.
Mr.. Nelson, of Minnesota, opposed the
motion. He was out Of patience, he said,
with the sentimentalism which had grown
up since the anarchists had made a little
raid in Chicago. The policemen who had
and the sheriff who hanged the men had
also been foreigner, He was tired of the.
maudlin sentimentalism which would rev.
olutionize everything because few crazy
lunatics took the course they did. Chicago
had had something worse than those luna
tics. It had had Carter Harrison, who had
nursed them and made them believe that
they could do anything except to be respect
full to the American language. The country
needs protection against such men as Carter
Harrison more than against the foreigners
who come here and settle. This country
had grown for the last twenty-five years as
no country had ever grown before. It was
the great free public lands and the immi-
grafton which it attached that had built up
the country, and not the tariff taxes. (Ap-
plause.)
The motion was lost
Pending action the house adjourned until
tomorrow at l1.30 a. N.

etin Taking Out the Bodies Of the Dead
and Wounded.
KANsAs Crzx, Mo-, March 90.-The follow
ing dispatch was received by the Associated
Press last night
RIm HnL, No., March O.-Ths scenes
around the shaft where the great mine ex-
plosion occurred yesterday were heartrend-
ing during the entire day. Up to noon to-
day twenty had been taken ont, five of whom
were dead.
DR.. Rice, coroner, was at the mine to-day,
but the inquest will not be held till to-mor-
row.
The large blacksmith and carpenter shops
near by are being used as morgue, and at
this place the inquest will be held.
The rescued are nearly all terribly burned
and present sickening sight and smell, as
in some cases the flesh dropped of from the
bones, in some cases past recognition, e1-
sonal evidence. A half mile away
the Rich Hill Gas company's natural
gas well now down to depth of $50 feet,
brightens up the darkness Of the night with
its lurid flames reaching heavenward as If
in mockery of its deadly work under
ground, 30 short time since, and at
80 little distance away. From 1,500 to 1000
people visited the scene of the horror to-
day, and saw the dead brought forth and the
arguishing cries of mothers, wives and
daughters, and many tear was wiped away
rom manly eyes.
Four of the living when brought out, have
since died. Several others are dangerous.
Seven more dead miners have been taken
out since noon, and seven more are known
to be yet in the mine, but are at points hard
to reach, and it is difficult to find volunteers
to 60 down and make the search.
Those miners who have risked
their lives to reach the buried
living, and bring to the surface the dead are
from the mines of the Rich Hill Mining and
Coal company, under charge of Joseph T.
Beavely, who, yesterday, after Superinten-
dent George Sweeney, of the Keith q Perry
Coal company, was so seriously burned, VOL
unteered his services and has since been in
charge of the exploded mine, and to whose
careful work, good Judgment and courage,is
largely due the success of the rescuing
corps. All night last night men were at
work in the search for the living and dead,
notwithstanding the mine was so filed with
natural gas that it burned above the regular |
blaze of the one safety lamp.
There seems to be no question but that |
the explosion was caused from natural gas, |
which aboupds in the earth at this depth in |
the large section OF country south and |
west, frequent explosions, large damage and |
loss of life having occurred heretofore. |
The State Mine Inspector Wolf, though hav- |
ing reported the mine IN excellent condition |
knew of the existence of large quantities of |
gas and has frequently unoficially so stated, |
and so great indignation exists among
the living miners that it would have been |
dangerous for Mr.. Wolf to put in an ap-
pearance at the mine either yesterday or to-
day. Had there been another air shaft the
miners say an explosion could hardly have
occurred or damage would have been less
disastrous.

Missing Man-Of-War,

WASHINGTON, March 29.-The fact that the
United States man-of-war Lancaster has not
been heard of for an unusual length of
time is beginning to attract attention at the
navy department.. No fears are entertained
yet, but there is much uneasiness in private
circles and particularly among relatives of
those on board. The Lancaster left Monte
video on January II last, for Gibraltar, when
she was to join ths Mediterranean squadron.
She was expected about March 10. Prior to-
leaving Montev1deo the Lancaster boilers
were said to be in such bad order that they
could not be used and it was thought that
ahe would have to sail a good part if not all
the way.
