Two Old Sisters Found Dead.

Two small attic rooms in a four-story
brick tenement house in the rear of No. 81
Prince street, Boston, Mass, have been &C.
cupied for great many years by Margaret
and Bridget Breen, seventy-five and seventy
eight years old respectively. They are
sisters, and both are unmarried. Since
early the other morning neither
of the sisters had been seen, and
repeated lznockings brought no response. An
officer forced in the door and found one of
the old women, Margaret, lying dead near
the door. In the rear room, covered by a
sheet, was the other sister, who was blind.
She was also dead. 1t is supposed that she
died first and that her sister covered her
up and then ran toward the door
to call the neighbors, but was also stricken
with death before she could dos so. For five
or six years they had been unable to DO any
work. Although offered food repeatedly by
their neighbors, they were so proud they
always refused to accept it. Both appeared
emaciated and, without doubt, had died of
starvation.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The senate
met at noon in continuation legislative

tion being a resolution to amend the

debate.
Morgan resumed the floor and con-
tinued his argument begun Saturday in
opposition to the proposed rule, and to
the elections bill, both of which meas
ures he claimed on autority of the New
York Times to be for an advancement of
the Harrison project for reelection. At
20 Morgan yielded for motion by Wal
colt to proceed to consideration of the
apportionment bill.

The Few Tails Massacre.

WASHINGTON, Jan. PA telegram
was received by the war department
from General Miles, giving an account
of the recent killing of the Indian, Few
Tails, by citizens. He characterized the
incident as useless outrage and said
of the assassins. The telegram showed
that the president had sent Miles an in
quiry whether or not the outrage had
been committed ON the government res
ervation, and whether the assailants
are members of any state organization.
The object is to determine the question
of jurisdiction.

STORMS IN NEW YORK.

for Years.

COLD IN THE METROPOLIS.

The Streets of New York Rendered AL
most Impossible by the Late Storm.
New YORK, Jan. 26.-This city is still
isolated this morning, telegraphic COM
munication being only partially restored.
Large forces of men are at work clearing
the streets of fallen poles and broken
wires and the whole force of the police
and fire department are doing patrol
duty to'guard against fires.
As all wires within the city are still
down, the streets are rendered almost
impossible by the fallen poles and
tangled wires. 1t is believed that large
force of men will have communication
nearly restored by the evening. The
weather is clear and cool this morning.
This afternoon associated press dis
patches from the west began to arrive
and were the first news dispatches from
the outside world since last night. The
ticket service in this city is still sus-
pended and business at most of exchanges
almost at a stand still. Damage to
electrical companies in the city are esti-
mated at half a million of dollars. AL
wires between this city and Philadelphia
are still down.

TALKED OF IN THE EAST.
Extract From Eastern Paper o
Pennoyer's Candidacy.

Pennoyer's Candidacy.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The boom for
Governor Pennoyer for president is
spreading over the Eastern states, and
has already occasioned gossip in Wash
ington, which is just now the political
center of the country. The following is
from the Washington Post of this morn
ing:
Governor Pennoyer, of Oregon, is a
candidate for president, and the Pacific
democrats are booming him on the
ground that in case Senator Stanford
should be the candidate of the repub-
hcans it might be policy for the dem
ocrats to have a Pacific coast candidate.
Pennoyer is a democrat who has always
carried the republican state of Oregon
for governor, and last year when Her
mann, the republican candidate for
congress, carried the state by 10000
majority, Pennoyer's popularity carried
him through by over 5000. The claim
in certain quarters that Hills chances
have suffered by his election to the sem
ate has caused i-Cleveland democrats
to look for another candidate. There is
also a large body of men, who insist
upon Western man, and a leading Or
egon democrat now in Washington saws
that Pennover's name is attracting atten-
ton ON account of his popularity on the
coast, and further that he is man upon
whom all factions can unite, because he
is not well enough known to have en-
emies in the East. 1t will be remem-
bered that Oregon cut considerable
figure in the presidential election.

To Ship Goods in Bond.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-Representa-
tive Wilson, of Washington, today was
in consultation with Assistant Secretary
Spaulding, of the treasury, on the sub
ject of shipping goods in bond down the
Columbia river. He presented writ
ten statement showing the desirability
of an arrangement whereby the goods
could be shipped in bond from Upper
Columbia points outside the country,
and then back to ports on the coast, the
desire being to accommodate business
beyond San Francisco and Upper Puget
sound points. Should this request be
granted, the change would necessitate
the appointment of an inspector at
Kettle Falls, or some place in the
vicinity, or the making of a SUPPORT OF
entry

In Favor of Lotteries.

LOUISVILLE, Jan. 24.-Judge Jackson,
of the circuit court, to-day decided the
lottery cases before him in favor of the
lotteries. One Manslis was indicted
for selling Frankfort and Henry Acad-
emy lottery tickets. Judge Jackson
held that the Kentucky act of May %
last, repeating lottery licenses, is void,
he knowing judically that there are other
lotteries in the class designated, and
adding that the legislature may select a
class and legislate in regard to it, but
cannot discriminate between those who
compose it. The case will be appealed.

Committed Suicide.
LITcHFIELD, Mimi, Jan. 24.-Henry
L. Bawham, mayor of Litchfeld, and
president of the state bank of Stevens,
killed himself some weeks ago, and the
next day notice was posted on the bank
doors that the institution would be closed

creditors. There were several meetings
of depositors, but they could get neither
money or satisfactory answers to their
questions. The crisis came yesterday
when the discovery was made that there
is only about $40 900 in the bank, which
is not sufficient to pay the depositors
more than small per cent. Judge A.
H. Young, of Minneapolis, has been ap-
pointed receiver and will take charge.
The liabilities are $1S0,O0O. The mys-
terry of suicide is solved, but whether
Bawham lost the money by gambling in
stocks and grain, or by making invest
ments in real estate is not known.

Trouble in the Lake view Land Office.

There has been trouble in the Lake
View land Office in Oregon, and some OF
the citizens there are trying to have Re-
ceiver Snyder removed. A petition,
signed by J. n. Merrill and others, rep
resenting pre-emption claimants as a
gainst swamp land claimants, have asked
for the removal of Snyder and the ap-
pointment of w. F. Byrd, in his place.
The whole matter has been referred to
the interior department by the Oregon
delegation and special agent bas been
sent to Lakeview to investigate the cir
cumstances. Some of the settlers there
claim under the swamp land grants, and
others claim under pre-emption and
homestead grants. The rights of the
claimants and the actions of the receiver
will be investigated by the special agent,
who will report to the department. Ills
believed by these who know Suyder's
action that he is acting on what he be-
leives to be the best authority as between
disputants

LONDON, Jan. 24.-The Chronicle says
high authority declares the government
has exercised no pressure in Canada re-
garding the pending negotiations. While
it would rejoice to see Canada and
America again commercial friends, it
does not desire to depart from the policy
of allowing the colonies free hand in
commercial matters nor is it but right
to imply any intention on the part OF
Canada to make reciprocal commercial
agreement the basis of settlement OF
questions involved in the Behring sea
matter, which must be decided on their
merits.
