LOOKING FOR FRAUD.
DunneIl Puts Through a Penalty
CenSuS Bill,

WASHINGTON, May 22.-In the house
to-day Mr.. Dunnell, of Minnesota, from
the comm tee on census, reported a
bill amednatory of the census act.
Passed. 1t prescribes penalty upon
any supervisor or enumerator who shall
receive. or any person who shall pay
any fee or consideration to compensa-
ton Of such supervisor or enumerator.
A bill was passed appropriating 100000
to supply deficiency in the appropria-
tion for public printing and binding.
The house then went into committee OF
the whole (Mr. Burrows, of Michi-
gan, in the chair on the river and
chairman Of the committee on river
and harbors. explained the provisions of
the bill, stating that it appropriated
$40, 932, O0O based upon estimates aggre-
eating $39, 100000. He believed that
there was no money that went out Of
the treasury that was so much in the in
terest of the people of the country as
the money expended in the improve
ment of rivers and harbors. Mr.. Dlanch-
ard, of louisiana. said the fact that a
great and disastrous food had recently
occurred in the lower valley of the Mis-
SisSippi river was sufficient excuse, if
excuse were needed, for calling the at
tention of the house to the requirements
OF that stream.
The great river had way of periodi-
cally overt1owing its banks to the great
destruction of human life, and it was
time that congress should be wax
ing up to the fact that something
should be done to harness its waters.
The waters that flooded Louisiana came
down from New York and all states
north of the Missouri river. He found
explicit authority in the constitution
juStifying congress in restraining flood
waters. The late flood had demonstrated
not that the levee system was failure,
would prevent flood. When the post
route of the Mississippi river was de-
stroyed, it was plain that the general
government had authority to erect
works to protect that post route. Under
the general welfare clause also the gov
ernment had right to restrain the flood
waters of the great river. Mr.. Catch
ings, of Mississippi, urged that
the improvement of the river
would furnish greater relief
to the Western farmers than
anything else that congress could do.
He defended the levee system. Mr..
Wheeler, of Alabama, advocated tine
appropriation of 100000 for the i'm
provement of the Tennessee river. Mr..
Kerr, of Iowa, attacked the bill, which
was defended by MI. Grosvenor, of Ohio.
Mr.. Boatner, of Louisiana, spoke in
favor of an amendment which he said
he would offer. if opportunity were pre-
sented, to strike out the clause provid-
ing that none of the appropriations for
the Mississippi shall be extended to re-
pair or build leyees for the purpose of
reclaiming lands or preventing injury
to h lands SO, or private property by over

is Raseality and Deceit Of a
Most Unpardonably Vi
cious Character.
When Sentence Is Pronounced

Stunned.

DoYLEsTowN. Pa, May 22.-Attorney
Shellenberger was sentenced to-day.
There were seventeen bills of indict-
ment against the prisoner, covering the
crimes of forgery and embezzlement.
The ordeal of entering the court room
proved too much for the once popular
and talented lawyer, who as district
attorney of Bucks county had made his
brilliant reputation at the bar of this
very court. AS he entered the dock he
shrank from the gaze of his for
mer friends, and kept his head
bowed. Congressman Robert Yard
ley, who came from Washington to
assist in his defense, sat at one OF the
tables. AS the bills of Indictment were
read loud groans and sobs came from
Shellenberger. His counsel entered the
plea of guilty in each case. Shellen-
berger acted at times like a madman.
He opened his handkerchief and threw
it over his head, rubbing his head and
face with it, and nervously shook the
railing of the dock with his hand and
foot. Eventually he leaned his head
forward on the rail and buried
it in his arms, rocking him
self on the seat like a person
suffering from acute pain. Atone time
Shellenberger groaned so loud and
sobbed with such anguish that the
judge, in nervous sort of way, told
the district attorney to hasten his work
and get it over. After all the indict-
ments were read and plea of guilty
entered in each case, witnesses were
called to show the character and extent
of Shellenberger's raScalities. Several
witnesses testified, and as testimo-
ny was brought out bearing
upon the most aggravated and
objectionable cases of rascality and
deceit. Snellenberger rocked himself
violently in the dock, tossed his head,
moved his hands about like wild man
and cried aloud. Judge Harmon Yerks,
an old-time personal acquaintance and
a professional and political associate OF
the prisoner Tor many years, pro-
nounced the sentence of the court. 1t
was anticipated that he would give
Shellenberger heavy sentence, but
nothing like he gave him was looked

up and addressed the prisoner in
low husky voice, in which there
seemed slight tremor of emotion.
Shellenberger never raised his head,
but went on groaning and weeping vio-
lently. Finally the words dropped from
the judges lips: "Twenty-two years at
solitary confinement with hard labor
Shellenberger gave a groan of
anguish and almost sank to the
floor. The scene caused quite
commotion. The blow seemed to
stun the prisoner. 1t was necessary to
partly carry him from the court room.
The sentence was discussed by the
farmers and the people in Doyles-
town on every side. Nothing like it
was ever heard in Bucks county. While
pity seemed to have been awakened in
some quarters by the prisoners exhibit
ton of anguish in the court room, the
general run of old farmers, who re-
flected upon what Shellenberger had
been doing for years. seemed to think
that it was just.

THE FLAG is SACRED.
A Bill to Prevent Its Use in Adj
VertiSinS.

WASHINGTON, May 22.--Judge Thomp-
son, of Ohio, from the house committee
on the judiciary, to whom was referred
the bill to prevent the desecration of the
United States flag, to-day reported as
follows: THE flag of our country: is
the symbol of our national existence.
power and sovereignty. 1t is the en-
blem of freedom and equality and
representative of the glory of
the American name. 1t is reminder
OF American fOrtitude, courage. and
heroism, and of the suffering and sacri-
fees on land and sea, which have been
endured for its preservation, and for
the preservation of the country it rep
resents. 1t is the shield and protection
of the citizen at home and abroad, and
should be hOnored and reverenced by
every Amdrlcan who is a lover of his
country. 1t should be held thing sa-
cred, and to deface, disfigure, Oh prosti-
tute it to the purposes of advertising
should be held to be crime against the
nation, and be punished as such. We
therefore favor the proposition OF the
accompanying bill, but offer in lieu
thereof the following substitute and
recommend its passage:
Be it enacted by the senate and house of
representatives of the United States, in con-
gress assembled, that any person or persons
who shall use the national flag, either by
printing, painting or afhXing on said flag,
or otherwise attaching to the same, any ad-
vertiSement for public display or private
gain, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and
on conviction thereof in the district court
of the United States, shall be fined in any
sum not exceeding $50, or imprisoned bot

the company. 1t is reported that
by Mr.. Jewett have been sold by him to
various parties in blocks of ten or
twelve shares, for from 5000 to 81, 100,
and his alleged victims assert that it
has been his custom to make out these

Estes thereto. 1t seems the suspicious

SAN FRANCISCO, May 22.-The
Chronicles special from Los Angeles
gives interviews with a number of
prominent citizens on the alleged flll-
clustering scheme which was exposed
yesterday. G.. A. Deloy, a resident of
Ensenada, stated: The expose will

that the large grant which the company

also expressed an opinion that as soon
as the news reaches EnSenada the com

FIRST CLASS UNLIMITED
Tickets, Chicago to New York,
Sold for $11.

CHICAGO. May 22.-An evening paper
says: Chicago eastbound lines are on
the verge of an upheaval which prom
ises to dwarf the passenger rate war of
the Western lines. The cause can be
traced to the complete failure of the
Eastern lines to stop commission pay
ing. These commissions have been
growing to such proportions that scalp
ers have taken advantage Of them to
cut the rate to New York. Several
scaIpers have been making a SIG,
and in some cases SIS, rate
to New York, over route made
up by the Baltimore & Ohio, Nickel
Plate and the Delaware, Lackawanna
& Western. This morning reporter
found tickets on sale by a notorious
scalper at S11 first-class Chicago to New
York. The route was over the Niagara
Falls Short Line and West Shore. The
scalper was willing to sell one ticket or
hundred, and guaranteed them to be
good at any time. Il other words, they
were first-cIasS unlimited tickets. The
other lines cannot stand such competi-
ton as this and several of them are con-
templating a reduction to at least SIG,
except on their limited vestibuled trains.
Trouble is certain to follow the contin-
uance of this rate.

there was no known accumulation OF
silver bullion anywhere in the world.
and certainly there was no such annual
production as to cause any fear. He
spoke of the decentralization act of 1878
as having been smuggled through con-

this last statement and said the

Billings Case Before the Supreme
Court Again.

DEs MONIES, To-, May 22.-The cele-
brated Billings case came up IN the SUI
preme court yesterday on motion for
rehearing. Considerable interest was
manifest, and the court room was filed.
Billings attorney argued that evidence
in the case showed rather an assault
on Kingley's side and au attempt at sui
eide. The theory of suicide was on the
lips of the counsel and in the minds of
the Jurors throughout the trial. Kings
lev had made threats against Billings
life, and the threats on the part of Bill
ings were more Of the nature to be even
with Kingsley than anything else. At
torney Mullan, for the state, argued
that it was the evident intention of Bill
ings to iniure Kingsley by some means,
and that the former had murder in his
heart. The thought was in this mans
mind to kill Kingsley, and he waited for
an opportune moment to do so. Attor-
ney Stoce will follow for the state, and
Attorney Wellington will close for Bill
ings tomorrow. 1t is not expected
that a decision will be rendered this
term,
