He Speaks on Limiting the
Length Of Parliaments.
STILL THE JOHNsTOWN HORROR.
taker Caught Robbing Corpses-NO One
Allowed to Enter the Town.

LONDON, June S.-Gladstone addressed
Liberal meeting at Weymouth to-day.
He Said that the Liberal party was moving
in the right direction and at fair pace.
He spoke of limiting the length of parlia
ment to four or five years.
In referring to Ireland, he admitted that
crime had decreased there, but attributed
the Improvement to. recent remedial meas
ures: to the beneficial influence of the Irish
members of parliament and the priests,
but above all to the knowledge possessed
by the Irish people that large majority
of the people of England sympathized with
them. 1t remained for Englishmen to say
whether they will do the further act of
justice which alone would give true and
indisputable union of the various countries
cOmprehended under the designation of
Great Britain and Ireland.
The public prosecutor has ordered an
other police summons to be issued against
Viscount Vaudeville, the oldest son of the
Duke of Manchester, whose bankruptcy
was announced about three months ago.
The viscount is charged with obtaining
money under false pretenses.

YOUNGSTOWN, June S.-Sorrowful as it
may seem, disease has infected the district
notwithstanding the denials of the sanitary
and health officials. DR.. Hess, of the Red
Cross society, tonight stated that Conta-
gious diseases were more prevalent than
the authorities allowed them to be. ''In
our temporary hospital at Grubtown,"
said he, ''we have numerous cases of sick
ness resulting from the frightful flood
There are now under our care about forty
cases of sickness. The diseases from
which the patients are suffering are diph.
liberia and nervous prostration, twenty
five; pneumonia, two one broken limb and
another driven insane by the loss of his
family. The sisters of the Red Cross are
also taking care of eight cases of liberated
sore throat, which they say are not dan
gerous now, though a change for the worse
may occur.
The number of bodies taken from the
ruins to-day was thirty one, of which nine
were identified.
Citizens from Kernville were not per
mitted to cross Stony creek into Johns
town owing to the unusually rigid orders
The guard had refused many citizens,
whose houses and families carried across
the creek into Johnstown, permission to
pass over. He further said that he be-
ieyed that the reason so many dead had
not been identified was that the only per-
sons who could identity them were in
Kernville and that if permission were given
many of the dead would be recognized.
General Hastings at once gave the neces-
sary orders to permit all such persons to
pass the lines. The number of persons
who have registered is 20,ll0 Registra-
ton is having its good effect, and il is be-
licyed that within five days all the livingin
JohnstoWn and vicinity will be accounted
for 1t is not claimed that those who have
not registered are dead, for many had left
this section before the system of registra-
ton began. Already from 1900 to 1900
passes have been issued to persons wishing
to leave. In some cases passes were issued
to the same parties twice, for instance,
these who were compelled to return for
sOme1reason, but it is safe to say that 6,00J
people have left this section.
The Pennsylvania Railroad company has
rendered the use of its wrecking machinery
with which to tear apart the masses of ma
terial that are piled up N various sections
OF the town.
The members of the state board of
health deny that there is an ep:-
deinic of any kind or any prospects for one.

It's il the hospital of the Red Cross society,

the purpose of considering the propriety of
the government assuming charge of the
sanitary work here. The matter will be
decided when the matter is reported to the

Especial TO THE HERALD Examiner Disnateb 4
WASHINGTON, June S-Conyersipe With
Judge Cooley recently regarding what is
| occasionally said in the papers, that the
penalties are not imposed for the violation
of the interstate law as they should be he
| replied that there was undoubtedly an
erroneous impression i'll regard to the an
| thorlty of the commission to proceed to en-
force through its own power the criminal
provisions of the law. "Our authority
he said, lis unquestionably in the main ad
ministrative, not judicial. We have deemed
it good policy to look rather to the future
and prescribe rules of conduct for the car
riers that shall be fair and lust, and b1
which they are to be governed, rather than
deal with the past. There is no question
whatever that in respect to any violation
of law by any of the carriers subject to il.
an individual injured, or the public prose
cutor may proceed in the courts; and.the
judicial remedy is preferable to any that
could be administered by the commission,
in respect to past conduct, it it were CON
coded that the power of the commission
was ample for the purpose. Undoubtedly
the power of the courts in the infliction of
the penalties and the awarding of damages
is beyond that of the commission. Besides,
Wnen one considers now vast IS this
country and how infinite is
the number of complaints that
are made in the management
of railroads, one must see that for any one
body of men to undertake to deal with all
the violations of the law would of itself be
simply to abrOgate its functions to prescribe
rules for the future. The bill and what Il
prescribes in respect to rates and other mat
ters of management, have thesforce of law,
and the questions presented are 80 numer-
GUS as to fully tax our powers to deal with
them.
in recent case pending before the fed
eral court in Missouri, railroad officers
have been convicted of violations of the law
by discriminating in the rates and number
of officers of road terminating in Chicago
are now under Indictment in Illinois for d
similar offense. The commission has ne
doubt that the proper method of dealing
with such violations was adopted in
those cases. 1t may be added that
in two cases where the commission was
satisfied that violatians of the law had
taken place, it collected the facts and put
them in the possession of the proper prose
cutting officer for mis- action. They will
not hesitate to do this in any other cases
when the facts are furnished them, and
which, they are satisfied, present a case
that ought to be punished. In number of
cases they have endeavOred to obtain evil
1ence from persons who have alleged VIC
ations of the law, but who, upon being
pressed to furnish the evidence, were uu-
willing to do SOL

Scenes nd the Santtle Eire

PORTLAND, Oregon, June S.-The latest
dispatches from Seattle fail to confirm the
previous reports of the loss of life.
During the fire and while the flames were
raging, man was seen carrying a fire
brand across an alley that had escaped
the flames, when a special policeman com
menced firing at him To avoid the shots
he darted into the house he had fired and
never came out alive. While the DC
cidental hotel was burning, an officer
saw man trying to get into the Puget
Sound National bank. He ordered the
man to stop, and the man drew a revolver,
but the officer took it away from him and
led him toward the Jail. The man struck
the policeman in the face and knocked him
down and ran. The officer fired three
shots at him and brought him to stand
still.

Especial to THE HERALD Examiner Dispatch
WASHINGTON. June S.-The navy depart
