Refuge.

CINCINNATI, June 19.-Yesterday at a meet
ing Of directors of the Cincinnati House of
Refuge evidence was heard in the case of a
plot Of about dozen of the inmates to fire
the building and escape. According to evi-
dence given by the plotters themselves it sp-
pears that on Tuesday night Arthur Jackson,
one Of the ringleaders of the plot rose from
his bed and made a search for matches. but
could find none. One of the boys then lighted
a piece of paper at the gas jet and handed it to
a third boy. who turned up the mattress Of an
unoccupIed bed and thrust the blazing paper
into the straw. Then by preconcerted agree
ment the boys began to scream and upset
furniture. Mike Kelly, aged eleven years. who
WAS not in the plot. leaped out of bed and
threw hand grenade fire extinguisher. check
ing the flames He then reused Superintend-
ent Oliver and the night watchman by ringing
the alarm bell. After the fire was extin-
guished the three leading conspirators were
taken below and punished. The directors per-
sonally commended Kellys bravery and would
have released him, but he asked to be allowed
to remain.

HOUSE..


The journal having been read Mr.. Mills
(Tex) objected to its approval on the ground
| that the clerk had not read it in full
The Speaker suggested that the clerk had
only omitted to read such portions as it is GUS
tomary not to read but he directed the fur.
ther reading of the journal.
The clerk proceeding read that portion OF
the journal which dlscloses the reference of the
silver bill to the committee on coinage, weights
and measures.
During the reading Messrs. Mills and McKin-
ley remained standing, anxious to claim recog-
milton. The latter was successful and he moved
that the journal be approved. Upon this he
demanded the previous question, despite Mr.
Mills protest that he entitled to recogni-
tion to move to correct the journal.
MR.. sPRINGERs VIGOROUS PROTEST.
Mr.. Springer, rising to question of order,
| raised the point that the journal contained the
record of something which had never hap
pened and which should not be in the journal.
The Speaker replied that that was for the
House to decide and directed the clerk to call
| the roll. The clerk proceeded with this duty,
while Mr.. Springer, amid the applause of his
colleagues. entered his vigorous protest, ad-
dressing the Speaker and saying: You can ig-
more the rights of Representatives of the peo-
pie, but the people will pull you down, sir, at
the polls next November, and your party with
you" But the Speaker was imperturbable and

MIR. MILLS MOVES TO CORRECT THE JOURNAL.
When the loud democratic applause ceased
MIR. Mills was recognized by the Speaker. He
offered a resolution reciting that the order of
reference made by the Speaker referring the
silver bill to the committee on coinage weights
and measures was incorrect under the rules of
the House, and was made without authority
under the rules and resolving that the journal
be corrected by striking therefrom this entry.
Nh oANNoN's POINT OF ORDER.
Mr.. Cannon Gil. raised q point of order
against the resolution. 1t proposed to strike
| out an entry in the journal which recorded a
question Of fact 1t was not in order for the
reason that if adopted, it would have the effect
OF changing a reference of bill with Senate
amendments otherwise than was provided by
the rules of the House.
He proceeded to argue that the Senate
amendments would require to be considered

mines. The draught at the former increased
from 2SOO0 cubic feet per minute to as 600
cubic feet This can only be accounted for by
a fall OF slate in the Hill Farm mine. either by

STILL READING THE BIBLE.
The Town Of EdgertOn Does Not SUBJ
nit to the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

EDGERToN, Wis, June Notwithstanding
the decision of the supreme court that the
Bible is a sec.arian book and cannot be used
as a text book in the public schools, and that
the simple reading of it by the teacher without
comment is using it as a text book, the school
board of this city has refused to cause such use
to be discontinued in the schools.
As consequence Sheriff Babcock of Rock
county has served peremptory writ of man
damus on the board commanding it to cause
the teachers in the public schools of district
No. of the city of Edgerton to discontinue the
practice. The decision of the supreme court
was given in a case which arose here.

WHICH MAY RESULT IN THE DISMISSAL OF
THREE wELL-KNowN oFFICERs-To BE BROUGHT
BEFORE THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS.
An air Of secrecy has pervaded the District
building for the past ten days and hung like
a pail over the room occupied by the Engineer
Commissioner. Commissioner Robert has
been clOseted in his private room the most of
this time, but what he has been about has been
a profound secret until STAR reporter CHANGED
upon the secret today.
Three police lieutenants, namely, Messrs.
Guy, Gessford and Boteler, have been under
investigation on some serious charges. Col.
Robert, with the energy that has characterized
him since his connection with the District gov
ernment, has been conducting the lnvestiga-
ton singe-handed, aided in part by Inspector
Pearson.
SPECIAL MEETING OF THE BOARD
He has examined number of witnesses and
today or tomorrow will call a special meeting
of the board and present the matter to them,
together with all proofs. The charges are of
SO serious a character that if sustained thew
will, it is understood, result in the removal Of
the heutenantS in question from the force.
COL ROBERTS INVESTIGATION
The Commissioners all knew that the colonel
was investigating the ponce 1orce-ln fact, 1t Is
understood he would not go into the matter
until they were willing to allow him to pro-
ceed. His investigations have been quietly con-
Quoted, and no one outside of those immedi-
ately connected with the affair knew ANYTHING
about it. The witnesses were cautioned to use
the utmost discretion and not betray the
scheme.
UNDER LOCK AND KEY.
The charges are all locked up in the coIonel's
private safe and cannot be obtained at present.
The investigations were in progress again this
morning. 1t is understood that an ex-lieuten-
ant has supplied some important information
in one OF the cases.
The officers will undoubtedly be brought To
trial, but the police trial board will not trv
them. The Commissioners will dispose of the
cases.
SENSATION EXPECTED.
The matter as soon as it becomes known ia
liable to produce a sensation equal to the ia
nous trial which resulted in the resignation of
the chief Of police and the dismissal of . lien
tenant during the Webb administration.
About 200 Mormon immigrants, expected To
land at New York, will be allowed to 90 vest.
