The Fifteen-OSnt School Levy Is Defeated
Tie Vote.
Special Telegram to the Register.
CHARLESTON, Febfusry 1S.-There was
an extra Session of the House this evening.
1t was brought about by the friends of the
ffteen-cent school levy bill They wish
they had not now, for their pet bill ran
against a snsg, and it now sleeps the sleep
that knows no waking. When the Houss
adjourned this afternoon the school levy
bill was second on the calendar. The back
county members hsd been rushing matters
all day in order to get it up. They failed,
ana voted for an evening session for the
same purpose. Tire House met at 7:3O.
Duvals compulsory education bill was first
on the calendar. Ii provides that all chill
dren between the sges of 6 and IA shall be
sent to school as least ten weeks in the
yesr. 1t was debated At some length,
Davies, of Mason, making strong eppes
for it. The vote was taken and it carried,
ayes "a, noes %
Then the school levy bill came up.
There was no debate, as eTybody felt
that all had been said that could be said
The question was on ordering it passed
The roll was called. Garden, of Ohio,
arose to move that the announcement Of
the vote be postponed, under the impIes-
sion that a majority had voted for ii.
Speaker Woods took the tally sheet, glanced
at it,, and, without recognizing Garden,
announced the result-syes, %; nays, %
The bill was les, for the lack Of major
ity.
To ssy that its friends we're thunder
struck is a mild way to put it. They
confidently counted on carrying it thr, ugh
the House, and their defeat vas q crush
ing surprise. The reason Of 1t ia very
plain. Several ardent school men repre-
Ssnting wealthy counties have been
voting for IL. These gentlemen seem %
have had 8 revelation since the full
publication o; Friday debate in the REG
IsTER Messrs. Meyer and Stone, Of
Wood county, and Bryte, of Preston, were
thres of this class. They turned against
the bill at the last moment. Sill this
would no. have been enough, had not
fortunate accident happened just preced-
ing. Hsmmet, Of Pleassnts, has support
I'd the bill steadily. When the compul-
sorry school law was passed Just few min
utes before, Hammet concluded they were
going little bit TOO far, aud he would
stop Within five minutes before the yo.e
was takeu, Hammet's conversion Was
made. He voted in the negative and the
bill was lost.
A bill 10 encourage the raising OF stock
was passed, and the House adjourned un-
I'll tomorrow.

measure bsoame apparent among
some Of the righteous Republican
brstbrep. Scott, Of Ohio, always leads in
sueb measures. He did so this time, say
inc that he did sot know what sort Of q
law might follow if this resolution were
passed. He was terribly, terribly afraid
that some honest voter might be cut out
Mr.. Morris followed in the same strain.
He was not exactly clear on the point, but
felt certain 10 the utmost depths of his
soul that there was some dark Democratic
scheme on foot. VsnPelt replied to these
objections with force. The vote on the
resolution WAS taken and it carried over
vhelmirgly. The Senate then proceeded
TO the hall of the House, and on return
took a recssr for dinner.
In the afternoon S. B. No. Is, prohibit
ing the sale of deadly weapons to minore,
was read and ordered to its eDgrossment
and third reading. After the transaction
Of some routine business, Mr. Flournoy
moved that bill No 1O1, establishing a
police court in the City OF Wheeling, and
bill No 100 granting additional power to
the Mayor of the City Of Wheeling be
taken up out of their order The motion
prevailed, and the bills were read and
ordered TO a second reading. Mr.. Price
offered q resolution allowing the commit
tee appointed to try the gubernstOrial cor
test to sit during the adjournment Of the
Legislature. 1t carried without division.
Senator Oxley reported back the resOlu-
ion 10 inquire into the expediency Of
lightiEg the Capitol Hith elect icity. The
report was that such action was not ad-
visable.
Senator Snyder offered resolution that
when the Legislature do adjourn it adjourn
to meet April 13. 1t went over under the
rules.
Bill No. 81, appropriating money for the
immigration AMI Development Society,
wss read and ordered to second reading.
Senate Bill No. 102, amending the char
ter of the city of Wheeling 80 as not to pre-
vent the corporation from manufacturing
electricity for lighting purposes, WAS called
up. Senator OSley pressed its passage.
Senator Scott opposed il. He stated that
it was understood that it was not to he
pressed. He moved that it be rejected,
and il WAS done on an aye and no vote.

mates that can be procured from the land
lord and others, it is probable that there
were rot far from fifty people in the hotel
proper. OF these, five may have escaped
uninjured amid the confusion of the early
morning, leaving 40 to be accounted for.
Ten are row in the hospital, and Of
to this writing, III p. m. y ten dead bodies
have been taken from the ruins, leaving
nineteen still missing, but there may be
several more than this. Mr.. Andrew F..
Whiting, Actuary of the Hartford Life
and Annuity Insurance Company, and
wife; the Rev. DR.. Perrin, agent of the
Memorial Hall Association, and wife, and
Edward Perry, the Night clerk, are known
10 be still il the ruins.
The cause of the disaster was undoubt-
edly the explosion of the boiler in the
basement No engineer IVES on duty at
the time of the explosion, the custom
being for the night engineer TO bank his
fires at midnight aud 90 to bed. He does
not sleep in the hotel. This engineer,
Alexander Thuer, was arrested this after
noon on an indictment Changing him with
granddaughter and locked up 1t is con-
iectured that Gsines, the colOred porter,
may have started the pumps, throwing
cold water into an oyerhestsd boiler, but
this is only conjecture, as Gaines is dead.
1t is believed that Mrs Wesson, Of
Springfield, was in the hotel, together with
all her family, five children, and probably
a servant or two. If 90, her death and that
of her family, wO1ld raise the aggregate
loss of life pr5baly seven additional.

BLOOD on THE DRILL.
a Faithful Mules Sad Fste - The
RuI

LITCHFIELD, ILL, February ia ter
rible tale eff a subterranesn mystery wss
solved here yesterday at 10 o'clock. While
Sam Warner, head drillsr for the Litch-
field Natural Gas Company, was at work
at a we'll on the Potts farm, about mile
and a half from the town on the Mount
Olive road the drill go, stuck erd refused
20 respond 10 the efforts Of the machinery
to raiae it. The drill is composed Of q
large bar Of steel weighing about half a
ton, ard is drawn up by q windlass, then
dropped sometimes as much as 80 feet.
Mr.. Warner worked for nearly an hour
before he could get the drill free, and he
then brought it to the surface, 10 make an
examination. As it came to view he was
astonished 10 discover that it was covered
with blood; as was the rope for several
feet above the drill. Late IN the evening
the mystery was explained by the preseD
tstion of the following bill by the Litch-
fiel1 Coal Compans:

that that it was understood by the friends
of the bill that it was not TO be pressed
this session, aud moved to reject it. The
motion prevailed-ayes, 8; noes, 8. The
Democrats voted solidly against rejection.
1t is enough to state that both CO..
White and Mr.. Flournoy were absent at
the time. Col White represents the inter
ests of the city as its accredited agent
Mr.. Flcurnoy WAS the patron of the bill
and chairman of the committee which re-
ported it If there WAS any agreement by
which it was not to be pressed both these
gentlemen are ignarant OF it.
1t is but justice to mr. Scott to say that
he has an entirely different understanding
of the implied arrangement between the
friends and opponents of the bill from that
held by Col. White. He claims that his
only endeavor was to get the bill referred
back to the committee, and failing in this
moved the rejection of it

CHARLESTON, February 1S.-Some OF
the Ohio county men here are freely in
dulgipg in criticism of Senator ScOtt's
course to-day in regard to bill No. 1O2,
Granting the city of Wheeling the privi-
leoe of manufacturing electricity for light
ing purposes. Senator Scott is opposed to
this hill for the reason, as be states, that
be does not believe the city should
invest money in an enterprise in
which private citizens are already
engaged and thereby ipjure them. He
has Also for some unknown reason shown
a decided reluctance to push the other
two Wheeling bills. Col. Robert White,
Who is here in their interest has gone to
him repeatedly in the last few days, asking
him TO call them up. Mr. Scott consen-
tad. but for some reason they were not
called up. This morning Col. White spoke
to him again; again Mr.. Scott consented,
and again they we're not called up.
Then Col. White applied TO Senator
Fiournoy, who introduced tne DIE anu
whose COMMITTEES reported them back on
his motion. They were taken mp and con-
sidered. Mr.. Scott the previou ly said he he
,yonld insist that had electric light bill
sbould be returned to the committee IN
oTder to allow certain parties to be heard
II friends agreed to this. At hye
O'Clock this evening, after the other
two Wheeling bills we're disposed ol
for the time, Col. White and Senator
Flournoy left the ball. A short time after
the left. by some hook or crook, which Is
not explained, the electric light bill was
gotten up. It was reported iavoraoly,
and if Senator Scott had desired to have
II recommitted the motion should have
been made before it wss read. This was
not done.
The bill was read and the quegtiOn was
on ordering it to a recond reading. Then
Senator Smith, of Hancock, moved that II
be sent back to the committee. There
was a disposition to oppose this on the
nart Of some OF the members, because no
rartioular reason was assigned, aud the
motion was lost. Senator Scott stated
