Reed Stops the Sale of Liquors
in the House Restaurant.
WASHINGTON. May 2S-Certain news
papers having called attention TO the fact
that Intoxicating liquors have been sold
in the house restaurant, to-day Speaker
Reed issued an order that the practice
should cease. The order is tenn
porary, and is intended to give the
speaker an opportunity to learn exactly
what bearing the joint rules have in the
matter and what the sentiment of the
house is. The order went into effect
Immediately, and its effect was plainly
noticeable in a considerable dimlnua-
ton in the number of customers of the
restaurant who are accustomed to drink
beer with their luncheon, and in the
increased business in the senate res
taurant, much of it being attributable to
the influx OF members of the house who
had learned of the prohibition in their
own wing of the capital.

Passenger Rates.
An Ironclad Agreement Good
for Sixty Days From
June 10.
No Line Can Withdraw With

Prospect That East-Bound

CHICAGO, May 29.-The end of the
Western passenger rate war is at hand.
A meeting of the general passenger
agents of all the interested lines will be
held tomorrow afternoon for the pur-
pose of fixing a date for the restoration
of rates. The Wisconsin Central has
yielded, and is now ready to become
member of the new association, without
any stipulation as to the speed of trains
between Chicago and st. Paul. Indeed,
it has already signed the agreement.
This removes the only apparent OBJ
stacle to the establishment of peace,
and there is no reason to doubt that the
ten days notice required by law will be
given tomorrow of an advance in pas
senger rates throughout the territory
where they have been cut.

Williamson pointed out one plat of
ground. where he said he had
planted parsnips, which he did not dis

<RuahOI DObOSCANOSs
PHILADELPHIA, May 2S.-Thomas ].
Basso, thirty-two years old, eX-chief of
detectives of New Orleans, La. who es-
capped from the state penitentiary at
Baton Rouge, where he was serving
sentence of fourteen years on convic-
ton for forgery on Nov. 20, 1886,
was arrested In this city to-
night by Detectives Miller and
Tall and Special Officer Balls
ton, of the Twentieth district. He was
locked up at the central station and the
authorities of New Orleans were noti-
fed by telegraph Of his arrest. The
man admits that he is the one wanted,
and talks freely of his past life. After
South America and remained until his
health became undermined by disease,
when he resolved to return to
the States, in the hope that
he might escape detection. He
landed in New York, homeless, friend
less and almost penniless; and, after
failing to secure employment, came to
this city, where he fell into the hands
of the police. BasSo was appointed on
the police force of New Orleans in 1879,
when he was but twenty-one years of
age. He proved to be an efficient Off
Ger. end was promoted from time to
time until 1888, when he was made chief
of the detective force, serving un-
til the time of his conviction in
1885. The crime of which he was con-
yicted was the forging of the signature
of Judge Voorhees, to marriage certiti-
cate by means of which he betrayed
Katherine Kuhn, eighteen years old.
He represented to the girl that he was
a single man and that the certificate
was all that was necessary to make
their marriage legal. He took her to a
watering place, and after remaining for
two weeks abandoned her and returned
to his home. When the girl dis
covered the deception she armed
herself and meeting Basso on the
street, shot him, the ball entering his
right side, and producing what was be-
lieved to be a fatal wound, but he re-
covered after lying in the hospital for
several months. The girl was arrested
for the shooting; but was afterward ac-
Quilted, the grand jury refusing to in
dict her. There was no law under which
Basso could be tried for deceiving Miss
Kuhn, but he was indicted for forgery,
and. having no defense, was convicted
and was given the full penalty of the
law.

COOLEY is CHAIRMAN.
National Convention of Railroad
Commissioners.

OmmlSS1OnerS.
WASHINGTON, D. c.. May 2S.-A ma
tiOnal convention of railroad commits
sioners met here to-day. The subjects
which it was called to consider relate to
railroad Legislation, uniformity in rail-
way accounting, railway construction
and so forth. Judge Cooley, the chair
man of the interstate commerce COM
mission, called the convention to order
and made a brief opening address.
Judge Cooley was elected chairman and
E. A. Mosely secretary. The report of
the committee on legislation, appointed
at the last meeting, was then read.
The report states that there were two
causes for the lack of uniformity
In railway legislation in this cOun-.
trv: the first cause was the want of
harmony between the legislation of con-
gress and that of the state legislatures;
and the second cause was the want of
harmony i'll the legislation Of the differ
ent states. The report recommended
that the main features of the interstate
commerce law be made part of the
laws of the different states. 1t was also
urged that laws be enacted by congress
securing uniformity in the various de-
tails of railroad equipment and manage
ment, with a view to the greater safety
and comfort of employees and the public.
The recommendations of the report were
ordered to be printed. The days session
was consumed in discussing a series of
resolutions embodying the views eX
pressed in this report. During the
session a statement compiled by the
statistician of the interstate commerce
commission was submitted to the con-
vention, showing the number of persons
killed and injured in railway accidents
in the United States during the year
ending June 80, 1889. This statement
shows that during that time, 5,923 per-
sons were killed and 26,309 injured. OF
the number killed, 1872 were employees,
80 were passengers, and 3.541 were de-
nominated 'other persons" Of the in
jured 2O,O28 were employees, 2146 were
passengers and 4,135 were other per-
sons. The statement further says:
1.-THE railways of the United States
carried 472. III. .343 passengers during
the year, covered by this statement,
from which it appears that one pas
senger in every 1923, 133 was killed
and one passenger in every 220, 204 was
injured. For the year 1888, the ratio of
casualty in England to passengers from
railroad accidents was one passenger in
6,942, 336 killed and one passenger in
527,577 injured In judging of the
above figures. it should be noted that
passenger mileage for given number
of tickets sold, is much greater in the
United States than in England. fact
which mitigates somewhat the severity
of judgment upon railway manage
ment in the United States, disclosed in
the above comparison" The number
of railway employees in the United
States is given as 7O4, 1856.
