Unions Loss.


Unions Loss.
New YORK, July 19.-The Western
Union company is proving a great cor
poration, and il possesses great energy,
and the building at Broadway and Day
street presents the appearance of bee
hive. A small army OF workmen are en-
gagged i'm repairing the damage done yes
terday. Never before has the Western
Union been confronted by such condi-
tions. Not one Of the 200 wires running
into the building could be used. The fire
is out. and the immense energy of the cor
poration began to assert itself. Offices
were established all about the city. The
great system was worked without CEN
tral point, and all through the night "a
force of men were busy cleaning the
water and debris from the building. A
force of linemen went up and down the
poles and fitted about the streets with
lanterns, like SO many steel-spurred fire.
flies. All through the night miles of wire
were stretched and instruments attached,
which clicked on in n merry way as
IL nothing had happened. When morning
dawned so wires had been run into the
Office and as many operators had fingers
on the keys. Messages were clicking oil
the usual way, and up to noon the work
had been going on increasingly, and the
officer i'm charge said there would be no
let up until everything had been repaired
and the company able To handle all its
business. Throughout the metropolis the
great fire is the talk of the day and thous-
ands of people who came up Broadway
this morning stopped on the pavement
long enough to survey the ruins. The i'm
terror of the structure took on the appear
ance of bee hive, there was several hum
dred operators m the Office in the base
ment who had come To be assigned 10 diff

amount of telegraphic business is being
handled. The Associated Press is still lo-
Gated in Jersey City, the guests of the Pen
sylvania railroad, and will probably re-
main there until some time next week. A
gang OF workmen are busy at 4l5 Broad
way preparing temporary home for the
association which il will occupy until the
burned building is repaired.

DOINCS IN THE HOUSE.



WASHINGTON, July i9.-McRae of Ar
kansas introduced a joint resolution di-
recting the secretary OF the interior TO
suspend the issue OF patents for lands to
the Union Pacific until the adjustment
due the United States from the said COM
pany, and authorizing the attorney gen.
eral TO institute such legal proceedings as
may be In his opinion necessary to sub
ject the lands granted to and held by said
company TO the payment of the debt due
the United States. Referred to the COM
mittee ON public lands.
The house then resumed consideration
OF the "original package" bill.
Thompson of Ohio said that II was con-
tended the bill would violate the constit,l-
ton, and was an attempt to delegate to
the state the power conferred upon con-
gress. He did not so understand II; he
regarded IL as q simple regulation Of COM
merce, OF the power OF congress to regu-
late commerce among the states, and not
delegation OF that power. IL did not in
terfere with interstate commerce, but
provided that an article imported into a
state, when offered for sale, should be-
come subject to the laws of that state.
Lchlbach of New Jersey said intemper-
ance never had been rooted out by legis-
lation. From his own personal observa-
ton he was satisfied that intemperance
was on the decline. This was largely due
20 the use OF that mild beverage beer. To
prohibitionists and fanatics, however, this
was the detcsted OF all stimulants. He
believed the substitute proposed by Adams
would meet all requirements. There was
one sure way in which the people OF Kan
sas and Iowa could get rid of the "origi-
nal package" stores and that was not 10
patronize or recognize them.
Hayes OF Iowa opposed the legislation,
preferring little liberty 10 n good deal
OF sentimental state rights. He con-
tended that the prohibitory law of Iowa
was not enforced, and he denied from
observation made on recent visit 10 his
state) that there were any original pack
age saloons in Iowa; at least he had not
seen one. Nor had he heard Of one being
there until he returned to Washington.
Perkins OF Kansas believed in the con-
stitutionaiity and propriety of the pro-
posed legislation. This was not n qucs-
ton OF prohibition or Of high or low II.
cense. IL was question whether people
in their state organizations had the right
to protect their homes, flrcsides and fam
lilies from an unlicensed, unr, ,estraiDed
unrestricted rum traffic. At If q
ent the original package decision
might affect the prohibition states alone
but in little time all states would be in,
Tested by lawless characters who kept or
ieinal package stores and license laws
and local option laws would he violated
There ought not 20 be vote cast agains,
the proposed legislation.
After further debate the house took q
recess.
At the evening session n number of
brief addresses were made and the house
at 10: 10 adjourned.

VASwERr, Ohio, July 19.-Just before
reaching Vanwert last night IN engine Of
the Cincinnati, jackson 4 Michigan pas
senger train was boarded by man who
knocked engineer Van Devcnder and fire
man Roadhousc senselcss with n large
hammer. The train ran past the station
at vanwert and crashed into n yard
engine and several cars. The passengers
were shaken up but nobody was injured.
Engineer Van Devender died this after
noon. The fireman will recover. IL is
supposed the assault was committed by
ex-convict Blair Mock, who killed Van
Dervendcr's son in 1884. Engineer Van
Dervender was the chief witness against
Mock and the latter sworc vengeance.
Mock was seen in this city this morning
but has not yet been arrested. During
the excitement last night il was thought
To have been an attempt To rob the train
but now IL is believed il was merely
Mock's plan Of revenge.

a notorious fact, he said, that the women
of Utah were more opposed TO doing away
with polyRamy than the men. This arose
not from sensuality or from any degraded
feeling, but from religious sentiment.
Senator Pomeroy had an idea that the
suffrage ought to be given the women OF
Utah so they could escape from polyg-
amy. They got It and every one of them
voted the polygaMy ticket. The women
Of Utah voted that way but IL was the
same principle that the colored men voted
the democratic cticket-probably from re-
ligious enthusiasm.
In the course of the discussion Vest re-
sented the drift OF some remarks of Ed
munds as TO his, Vests, uniform OPPOSE
tion To anti-Mormon legislation. He said
he was as much opposed to polygamy as
any one but he thought there was u line
beyond which he would not go.
Plumb ex pressed an opinion that the

who had gone into strange places, had

the property was wanted for speculative
purposes.
This led to warm personally coloquy
between Edmunds and Plumb. which
lasted some time. The amendment was
agreed to, as was also the item granting
10 the widow of the late Chief Justice
Waite the balance of his years salary.
The amendment as To the proposed
Latin American memorial library was
amended as proposed by Hawley. by
striking out the proposition for building
to cost $500, 900 and by substituting pro-
vison for the section of the library of con-
gress and appropriating s25,OOO for its
outfit.
After the adoption of some further
amendments the bill was reported 10 the
senate and all amendments agreed TO in
committee of the whole were agreed to in
bulk except those as To the irrigation sur
vey.
The discussion on the irrigation qies-
occupied an hours time.. and then
the amendment was agreed TO and the bill
passed.
The tariff bill was taken up as unfin-
ished business and Aldrich gave notice
that he would move To take II up at .
o'clock on Monday. The senate then at
s:45 adjourned.

HELENA, July l9.-S. w. Goldsworthy
killed himself this evening In his room at
Uncle Sans pawn shop. He was a miner
about 60 years old and came to this city
about twelve days ago. This even
ing at o'clock some one
heard shot from the upper
floor of the building and an
hour later Goldsworthy was discovered
lying on his bed with a bullet hole in his
head. Back Of the left ear was 3s-caliber
bulldog revolver with all the chambers
filled but one. He was still alive when
found, but died shortly afterward.
He left no explanation OF the act
but IL is probable that he became despon-
dent from his failure to find work. In his
trunk was letter from Daisy Fem indi-

The man Is unknown and has no friends
in this city.
The new athletic grounds were opened
to-day in the presen OF 1 900 people. An
Knight and Colonel Botkin delivered
response. The Fort Custer military band
furnished music. Then followed q
close and exciting game of ball
between Helena and Salt Lake. II was a
fine contest, the fielding was particularly
sharp and close and there were many fine
plays. The game was interrupted by rain
and when the men returned to the field Il
began TO grow dark. At the end of the
ninth inning the score was nine 10 nine.
The umpire called the game ON account of
darkness; but changed his mind and sent
the Salt Lakes in the field. After the Hell
enas had scored two runs the Mormon's
left fielder threw the ball over the
fence and his team left the field. The
umpire gave the game TO Helena, 9 to
