Fire in Phillips.
PHILLIPS, November 1.-THE woodsheds
of the Sandy River Railroad Company at
Phillips were found to be ON fire at O'Clock
Friday morning. The fire spread so rapidly
that before many people reached the spot
the buildings were mass of flames. Lack
of sufficient hose prevented the engine COM
pany from working and it looked at one time
as If every building Of the company was
doomed, but through great effort, by the aid
of pals, the fire was confined to the
shed. Some 800 cords of wood, two large
sheds, section house and handcar were de-
stroyed. Loss about $4,000; fully insured.
The origin of the fire is mystery.

felt by the republicans in Speaker Reeds
ability to get out of any difficulty was
appreciably increased by his course to-day.
he ordered the clerk to call the roll on the
motion ordering the pr evious question on
the approval of the journal of last Tuesday.
Mr.. O'Ferrall rose to suggest that no quorum
was present, but the speaker paid no atten-
ton to him. and the roll was called It re-
suited in 113 yeas and 34 nays. The
speaker counted a quorum and announced
the motion as carried. The roll was then
called on the motion to approve the journal
On this roll call quorum failed to respond,
enough democrats having abseuted them
selves to break it. They are deter
mined to compel the republicans to
abandon the contested election cases
for this session or get a quorum
of their own. OF course the republicans
will choose the latter horn of the dilemma.
They will have TO have quorum here to
pass the tariff bill anyway. They expect
to succeed in this troublesome task by
Monday next. The quorum having disap-
peared, a call of the House was ordered.

observing the signal Of the first train,
stopped.
RUN DOWN BY A THIRD TRAIN.
The two trains had been standing only a
few minutes when another freight train
came along and crashed into the Fighter"
engine and caboose. on which it is said no
signals vere displayed, and drove them
into the FIRST train. The caboose of the lat
thr train was reduced TO kindling wood, as
was the one behind the "lighter' engine,
and both cabooses and two freight cars on
the first train were burned up, having been
set on fire by GOALS from the Fighter" eu-

third engine was knocked in.
A CONDUCTOR KILLED.
In the caboose behind the second engine

END OF THE RAUM FARCE.
No More Witnesses to be Heard by

No More Witnesses to be Heard by
the Com mittee.
WASHINGTON, Sept 12.-The special COM
mittee of the House, appointed to investigate
the charges against Commissioner Raum,
met at the pension building this morning
for the purpose of taking testimony of 1873
clerks who, it was charged, had received
promotions by reason of their purchasing
stock in the Universal Refrigerating Com
pany. All of the members were present
with the exception of Mr.. Goodnight of
Kentucky. The committee, however, de-
cided not to call any of the clerks for ex-
animation for the following reasons, which
we're entered on the record by direction of
the committees: ''Gen. Raum requested the
committee to subpoena every employe Of the
pension department who has been promoted
under his administration of the office to
disprove the charge that any of such en-
ployes have purchased or held stock in the
Universal Refrigerating Company, or been
promoted by reason thereof The commit
tee declined to comply with his request on
the ground that it would, in their opinion,
Judging from the evidence already taken,
be a useless consumption Of time and a
needless expense. Messrs. Morrill,, Flick
and Lewis sustained the objection, Mr..
Sawyer dissenting. This practically ends
the Investigation, and there is likely to be
only one more meeting of the committee,
to adopt report
