TIE Allegations Made Against Sen.
nfor Chandler by Call.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2i.-In the
Senate, Chandler, rising to a ques-
ton Of personal privilege, offered a
preamble and resolution, stating
that Senator Call of Florida charged
him in n debate Thursday with per-
sonal responsibility for the outrag-
ing Of women, the murder OF
children, and declared that the de-
struction Of the happiness Of house
holds Of the South was caused by
those who were emissaries behind
him, and that Call, in addition, in.
serted in the official report the fol-
lowing paragraph, which he had not
spoken:
The blood of Saunders, If the evil
dence shall show that his death was
in any way connected with the
prosecutions in the United States
courts, will rest on his conscience.
The shrieking ghosts Of outraged and
murdered women and children, vic
Tins Of the wild lusts and passions
Of a race who owe all that they
know of religion and civilization TO

shire, win disturb his sleeping and
waking hours. Like Ban1uo,s
ghost, 1t evil not down." and the
ocean viii not wash his blood
stained hands from the guilt OF the
race and murder of these tender
white women and children.
The resolution condemns such &C
ton as a breach Of privilege, for
which Call is censured, and orders
that the inserted paragraph be
stricken from the report in the
Congressional Record.

The Rritish Comn,on..

LONDON, Feb. 24.-tn the Com.
mons, Morley gave notice that he
would move as an amendment tC
Smiths motion that the House re-
probates the charges as the gravest
and most obvious falsehOods based
upon calumny that have been made
against members,s and, whilst e&-
pressing satisfaction at the expo sure
Of evil-doers, regrets the wrong in-
fiicted and the suffering and loss
endured through these acts Of flag
rancy.
Lewis, member from Antrim, gave
notice that he would move that the
House deplores that Dillon and
O'Brien and seven other members
have been declared parties to a
reasonable conspiracy; that Parnell
and many Others are declared parties
to a criminal conspiracy and the
House finds the conduct Of such
members deserving Of severe con-
domination.
Sexton moved to adjourn. His
purpose was to call the attention Of
the House to the illegal violence
used by the Irish executive and the
police outrages dunng the Clan
CAREY evictions.
Balfour denied that the police had
destroyed the property of the
tenants. Sexton, he said, appeared
TO think the evicted persons
should be allowed to violate the law
with impunity. Certainly landlords
should be sparing in the use Of vio-
lent methods Of eviction, yet If it
was once admitted that the law
might be defied whenever resistance
was offered by powerful conspir-
acy, the most injurious blow would
be struck at the order aud prosperity
of Ireland.
Sir Charles Russell maintained
that the government procedure in
Ireland constituted n system that
could not long stand beside that ola
governed according 10 con-
principles. The despot-
ism of Balfour directly endangers
the peace Of the country. The house
voted against the motion to adjourn
by Is6 TO l5I.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-In ex-
ecutive session Of the Senate this
afternoon the publication Of the pro-
ceedings of secret sessions was con-
sidered. The practice Of discussing
nominations behind closed doors
was criticised by several senators as
un-American. 1t is understood,
however, that in accordance with
Dolph's resolution, offered several
days ago, it was decided to make
inquiry into the method by which
the newspapers secure their infor-
nation concerning proceedings in

hey General on the assassination Of
Deputy Marsbal Saunders was re-
ferred to the committee on privileges
and elections.
The. Blair education bill came up
as unfinished business and Faulkner
addressed the Senate In opposition
TO it. Among other things he aslledf
SIS the bill sanctioned by the pro-
visions OF the federal Constitution?
Are It's provisions, which effect
distribution Of funds between the
States and between the races, just
and beneficial? Is il wise and prac-
teal craftsmanship for the national
government 10 embark on this
boundless sea OF unTestrained and
unlimited legislation?" He took
the negative on the propositions
and went on to argue In support
of his views, quoting from de-
bates on the Constitution, from the |
decisions Of judges and the writings |
Of recognized statesmen. The bill |
had been justified 10y its supporters |
on the ground Of relieving illiteracy;
and yet, when the fund got into the
States, one-third more would be
given to white children than to
colOred children ION basis Of school
pOpulationl, while the illiteracy Of
THE CoDoRED CHILDREN
was 20 per cent greater than Of
white children. That cOntradicted
the principle Of the bill.
Faulkner said he had perfect faith
and absolute confidence in the pres
ent and future or the South. He
did not intend that the active, euer-
getic and enterprising people OF
West Virginia should be held up
before the people, clothed in rags,
and crying out in their poverty and
humiliation. IL the Constitution
did not prohibit the passage Of the
bill, n sentiment Of justice, at least,
would demand that the distressed
farmers Of Dakota, the miners Of
Colorado and Nevada, and the
lumber men Of the northwest should
not be called upon to contribute to
the education Of the children Of his
State.
Coke obtained the floor and Plat
arose and said the education bill
had held its place rs unfinished
business since February Bird, and he
should insist that after today the
bill, when taken up, should be dis
cussed every available hour until a
vote was reached. Ii ought not to
block the way of the important bust
ness now on the calendar.

dren at the village OF -. Adams to-
day. When the family were getting

sighting remark about his wife's
cooking. and Mrs. Thib1lt the
mother-in-law, told him TO get out
Of the house if he did not like it.

and did not return in the course Of
an hour. He had gone TO a grocery
and bought q quart Of white
whisky. Then he went to the barn
and stayed there until he had drank
it all. Mad with liquor, he returned
TO the house, brandished the empty
bottle about his head and said he
would lie master Of the house. His
wife, Mary, fled into the yard in
terror, but the motther-in-law at
tempted to tax the bottle from him.
I've stood this long enough" he
shouted. and strucS the Old lady
on the head. Her screams brought
the wife back into the house ard
she saw him pounding on her
mothers head with an AK. Forget
ting her danger, she rushed in to
save her and was struck down her
self, with fearful cash In her head,
and then Dubois deliberately began
hacking his mOther-in-law into
pieces. Not satisfied with his bloody
work, he went upstairs, where his
four-year-old baby was in the cradle.
The baby was almost decapitateG,
besides having several cruel cuts all
over the body
His thirst for blood was not yet
satisfied, and with the bloody AK he
went out on the road, where Joseph
Rudfield Dubois, his son, was play
ing and struck him on the head. He
threw the ax beside the body anu
started for the woods. When the
crime was discovered his wife was
still alive, but died after telling the
frightful story
The whole village turned out %
hunt for the murderer, but he had a
couple Of hours the start Of his pur-
suers and Mt last accounts he had
not been captured. Dubois will be

$1,000 per million Of population, or
some corresponding amount. such
an assessment would amount to n
total OF $50, 900, which it is thought
will he sufficient to meet all neces-
sary expenses.
The plan is for the engineers from

PHd:SIx, Ariz Feb. 24.-No in
formation has been received here in
regard to the break Of the Walnut
Grove dam. IL the disaster has
occurred, the loss Of life anu
damage to property must be
very great. The entire valley
from the dam to Quickenberg is in
habited principally by Mexican
miners and ranchmen, and the fall
Of rain and snow has been very
heavy in the mountains far to the
north and east; and the water here
is very high. Salt River rose seven
teen feet in fifteen hours Saturday.
The railroad bridge across 1t was
washed away for two hundred feet,
and half a mile Of track on the bank
Of the river is gone. Telegraph
communication was interrupted,
but n wire was placed across the
river last night.
Later-A courier just arrived
from the lower dam on the Hassay-
ampa reports that n tremendous
Of water came down the
Hassayampa about 2 O'Clock Satur-
day morning, and thirty-four men
lost their lives at the lower dam,
where they were at work. They
were all whites except three Chin
ese. The courier reports the town
OF Wickenberg all right.
The loss of life in the valley he
tween Wickenberg and the dam
may not be known for some days,
but il is without doubt considerable,
and the number may possibly reach
thirty or forty. The courier states
the upper dam had undoubtedly
broken and carried the other two
dams below down with 1t. The
loss Of property on the dams alone
will amount TO about SS00.000.

THIS CONFERENCE,

in proposing this scheme, declares
that such a railroad il too important
TO the commerce Of the countries TO
be controlled by any one and there
fore should be under the protection
aud patronage Of all the nations OF
the hemisphere, although 1t may be
constructed by private means, and
that the several nations interested
should pledge themselves TO protect
it against eonfiscation and destruc-
ton or interruption at any time.
They declare, also, that the property
of the road should never be taxed
and that all material and supplies
for its construction, repair and
maintenance should be admitted
free Of duty into the country where
it is TO be used.
Both the President and Mr.. Blaine
are deeply interested in this project
and have kept lace with the COM
mittee in its work. The several
propositions that have been under
consideration by the committee
have been from time TO time sub
mitted to both gentlemen, and ex-
Senator Davis and Andrew Car
negie, who have represented the
United States on the committee,
have been guided by their advice
from the beginning.
The enterprise appears at first
sight to he one with insurmount-
able difficulties, but when the con-
ditions are closely studied it will be
seen, as Mr.. Blaine has said, that II
is not half the undertaking that the
old government road from Washing
ton 10 the West was when it was
in the days Of Henry
Clay, nor does il compare with the
building Of the Chesapeake & Ohio
Canal or the Erie Canal, or even
the Union Pacific Railroad.
