Opportunity Congress- Has Now.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-In the senate to-
day communications were presented from
the attorney general in response to u res
olution of the senate calling for informa!
tion as to voting places and as to cleo
tion supervisors. The attorney general
states that his department has not the
means of supplying the information
asked.
Mr.. Mcpherson offered resolution
which was agreed to) calling on the sec
rotary of the treasury for certified copies
of the accounts of John |. Davenport,
chief supervisor OF elections for the
southern district of New York for the
elections of 1884, 1856 and 1883 to-
gcthcr with reports Of the correspond
cnce, etc.
Mr.. Plumb introduced a bill to reduce
the amount of United States bonds to be
required of national banks and to replace
their surrendered notes, and to provide
for the free coinage of silver. Referred to
the committee on finance. He also offered
an amendment lin the same terms to the
bill now on the calendar SO that the mat
ter can bc brought before the senate in
dependcntly of any report from the
finance committee.
In doing so he gave notice that IL the
elections bill were not disposed of at an
early day he should move to lay it aside
for the time being in order that the bill
Just introduced by him, and all other
measures relating to the financial condi-
ton of the committee should be consid-

Something, he said, "ought to he
done Congress has on it n responsibility
which. in my judgment, it can not
avoid for any great period of time with.
out letting go by a very great oppor.
tunity for helping the country and
one which will not occur again in a very
great MANY years. II something is not
done within the next two or three weeks
il might as well be postponed indef-
nitcly."

Mr.. KELLEY AVERY SICK MAN.
The Father of the House Will Probably
Never be Seen on the Floor Again.

The Father of the House Will Probably
Never be Seen on the Floor Again.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The father of
the house of representatives, the cham
pion Of protection, the veteran legislator,
William D. Kelley. of Pennsylvania. has
probably been on the floor of the house
for the last time. On the day when the
fifty-first congress assembled, Judge
Kelley was in his place and since that
time he has probably been at the capitol
twice or three times. His enfeebled con-
dition was the subject of much comment,
but only few knew the nature of the
Judges ailment. 1t is now fully devel-
oped and its activity is most virulent.
Just below the rear of Judge Kelley's
jaw is cancer, and it is spreading rap
idly into the throat. So quickly has it
worked that the affected man can speak
only in whispers, and then not without
pain. The swallowing of nourishment
is matter of considerable difficulty and
locomotion can only be INDUCED in to a
very small extent. Several of Judge
Kelley's relatives have been here during
the last few DAYS, and his daughter, Mrs.
Hosmer, wanted to take him home with
her, but his condition Is such that re-
moval was regarded as impossible by
the physicians, so the judge is still in
his rooms at the Riggs house.

TERRIFIC EXPLOSION OF GAS.
The Nottingham Mine in Plymouth Fired
by the Lamps of the Miners.

The Nottingham Mine in Plymouth Fired
by the Lamps of the Miners
WLKEsBARRE, Pa, Jan. AT the
Notting ham mine in Plymouth, where
the disastrous cavern occurred last
week. a terrible accident was averted
last evening. About Z o'clock a terrific
explosion OF gas took place. There had
been heavy fall of coal and this forced
the gas towards the shaft, but on its way
it was ignited by the naked lamps of the
and timber caught fire at once and
burned fiercely. Five men were caught
between the cave in and the fire and all
manner of exits cut off. The report
spread that the men were dead and in
few minutes hundreds of men, women
and children gathered at the mouth of
the slope waiting TO see the dead bodies
hoiSted out. The wives and children of
the imprisoned men became frenzied
and their grief was terrible to behold.
About half an hour after the fire broke
out, John d. Humphreys and John Rich
ards were lowered into the mine. When
they reached the fire they heard shouts
on the other side. Putting their hands
before their faces. they rushed through
the fire and dragged the five imprisoned
men out, one by one, uninjured. When
they reached the anxious crowd above the
rescued men and heroes were received
with shouts of welcome. Thomas Rich
ards, who was in another part of the
mine, was severely burned by the explo-
sion. and it is feared he cannot recover.
Part of the workings of this mine are
located under the Susquehanna river,
and the miners state that water is oozing
through near where the cavern occurred
last week. They fear the river NAV
break into the mine. Many mines would
be drowned out beyond hope of reclaim
ing them, and operations would have to
be SUspended.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan "a bitter war
is being waged among the Knights of
Malta. There are two factions, each
claiming to be the only true Knights,
and these met last Saturday night in this
city by their representatives. but if they
expected harmony to result the meeting
was failure. The meeting, which was
of the Chapter General of New York
and the Grand Comnandery in this CITY.
convened Saturday evening, and re-
manned in session until early Sunday
morning. and had not the police been
called in the meeting most probably
would have resulted in free fight. The
meeting was called for the purpose of
discussing which is the representative
order of the Ancient and Illustrious
Order of the Knights of Malta in this
country.
The New York representatives ar
rived dressed in full regalia, and entered
the hall with drawn swords. The two
factions seemed most bitter and antag-
onistic toward one another during the
meeting. Each cheered and applauded
its speakers. and hooted and jeered their
opponents. Toward morning the bad
feeling, which had been growing worse
all night. reached a white heat The
speakers called each other traitors.
Grand Commander Pierce was ordered
by the chairman TO leave the hall He
refused TO go. and his supporters dared
the chairman to put him out. To make
matters worse, the frightened janitor
turned down the gas. The light was
turned on again. Then both sides drew
their swords, while pandimonium
reigned. A squad of police rushed in
and prevented fight, but the meeting
broke I'D In great confusion.
