Murderer Woods eIndicted-Death Of .
Child by Poison-Eleetric Lights UP.
PoRr ANGLES, Feb. 49, Especial -
ing. He stated that he would try no con-
tested cases. The grand jury was en-
panelled and its first action was to find .
true bill against Murderer Woods. The
attorneys for the defense endeavored to
secure the release Of Woods by habeas
corpus proceedings, but were not success
full. Woods was brought here Saturday
night.
A sad accident occurred yesterday after
noon by which Mr.. and Mrs. George Win
tiers, three miles east Of here, lost their
younger child. The elder boy, about 8
years old, was using some toy paints and
would dip his brush in q cup of water
at his side in mixing the paints.
The child, who was about years of
age, came up and drank from the cup
before his brother knew his intention. He
almost Immediately went into commissions,
and died in about an hour, IN spite Of ali
endeavors to save his life. He was bright
little fellow, and the heartbroken parents
have the sympathy of the entire COM
munity.
The town was illuminated by electric
lights for the first time Saturday. The
power was turned on about & p. m, and
the system worked to perfection. There
was q weakening only once during the
night, end that was owing to
failure Of the pumps. There was great
rejoicing over the event, the whole
town being on the street. Mr.. Rochman,
the promoter of the work, was serenaded
by the band, and in response to calls for q
speech responded in few well-chosen
remarks.
The steamer Alice Blanchard put in here
yesterday on her way from Nanaimo, hav-
ing sprung leak She went up Sound
today for repairs.

ul-Fated Pennsylvania Town Visited by
a Rig Flood.

1ll-Fated Pennsylvania Town visited by
. Big Flood.
PITTsBURG, Feb. 16.-A food unequalled
since 1854 is looked for by experienced river
men here. A fall of rain for over thirtr
hours along both the Allegheny and
the Monongahela rivers from their noun
tain sources have been heavy and regular,
and it is still raining. At many places
great damage has been done already. Brad
ford reports the lower streets inundated,
and the people Of Ann street are being
taken from their houses in boats. The
water has put out the fire in Seyfang's
Iron Works.
The steady downpour of rain since yes
terday has the effect of more or less
seriously impeding travel on almost every
railroad entering the city. The largest
landslide on the Baltimore & Ohio
for several years now covers the
track near West Newton. The
Toughiogheny river is bank full and ris-
ing. A big food is feared. Greensburg
reports the streams in that vicinity over
their banks, and the people on the low
lands have been driven from their homes.
Johnstown reports the highest water in
Stoney creek and the Conemaugh river
since the flood Several bridges have been
destroyed, cellars in the lower portion Of
at the Cambria Iron Company's plants has
been suspended.
Late this evening Johnstown reports the
water two feet higher than a. any time
since the great Hood, and sill rising.
Water from Stoney creek has commenced
to flood the business paft Of the city.
Later adyices from Johnstown tonight
say the situation is becoming serious.

REV. SENATORS ;. H. KYLE.

PIERRE, s. D., Feb. 16.--James H. Kyle
was elected United States senator on the
fortieth ballot today by . combination Of
Independent and Democratic votes, the re-
suit standing: Kyle, 70; Sterling, So;
Trip, g.; Campbell, l. Thirty members
were paired.
The result Is regarded here as having
been brought about in some measure by
agitation of the Illinois-South Dakota rec
iprocity scheme.
REV. J. II. Kyle, South Dakota'e newly elected
senator. IL pastor OF the Congregational church
1t Aberdeen. He Is IS years old, man Of fine
appearance, tall and powerful. He has been .
resident of his state for years. He was formerly
settled over church 1t Ipswich, but went 70
his efforts were opposed by rival church socf-
eties. In very short time he had not only
drawn about him good congregation, but had
made his services there the most popular Of any
IN the city. His power awoke the most bitter
feeling against him among members OF other
religious organizatiOns,a and on the occasion OF the
death OF his child an anonymous letter was sent
him pronouncing his bereavement . Judgment
Tor his course in entering ministerial held
that the letter was written BY the pastor Of q
neigbbofing church. Rev. Kyle 10 aided in his
work by his wife, lady of high accomplish
ments. In politics Mr.. Kyle u independent,
with strong Republican sympathies, and his
labor in the political field has been in aid OF the
Alliance and kindred labor organizations.

He Opens His Judicial Layout
at Port Angeles.
Still DEFIEs HIS AccUsERs.
Rfoossdings 20 Ne Instituted Before The
Lsgislssurs--rhs lGssAoa q

PoRT TowHsEnp, Feb. 16.-(Special. Ito
the surprise Of even his most ardent sup
porters. Superior Judge Morris B. Sachs
carried out his threat by going to Port
Angeles this morning and opening court.
Even his friends are disgusted, and most
Of them are deserving him. That Judge
as seriously charged a. il Sachs should
render judgments which, II he is removed
by the legislature, will prove null, should
insist upon sitting on the bench, lays bare
the accused mans nature.
The case Of James Woods, accused Of the
murder Of Mrs. Moss, 10 on trial at Port
Angeles. Should he be convicted and
Sachs displaced, the general opinion of
local attorneys is that the Judgment will
be reversed. Then his lawyer will secure
his discharge upon plea Of "once in
jeopardy"
The First National bank, Of which Sachs
father-in-law, Henry Landes, Is president,
IL all that remains Of Sachs following. It
is this institution which is alleged to have
been benefited by one Of Sachs corrupt
decisions. Local feeling is continually
running higher and serious trouble is not
one Of the impossibilities. Even those
who are under obligations to Landes are
defiant as ever, and says he will not give
up his Office and cannot be removed.
OLYMPIA. Feb. 16.-fSpecial. lit was to-
night decided by the House judiciary COM
mittee to bring proceedings ageinst Judge
Sachs under section g. article of the con-
stitution, which provides that any judge
OF the superior court msy be removed
from Office for corruption, malfcas-
ance or delinquency in Office
upon . three-fourths vote Of
each branch Of the legislature.
The way to impeach Judge Sachs under
the impeachment article did not seem so
clear or satisfactory, and besides, it in
wolves trial with such judicial forms as
might and probably would delay the work
Of the legislature many days. As it
is, the constitution gives Judge Sachs
the right TO make q defense, intro
ducing such testimony as he sees fit.
OF course it is expected that Judge Sachs
will take advantage of all privileges ex-
tended to him by the law, and considera-
ton Of the matter is likely to occupy some
time. The judiciary committee had the
matter under consideration all afternoon
and part Of this evening. Col
onel J. C. Haines, who has been
retained by the friends of Sachs, and A. J.
Coleman appeared before the committee in
his behalf, and Galusha Parsons for the
complaints. The session was executive.
The committee was unanimous in its find
ing, and viii embody in the resolution the
charges brought against Sachs by the
special committee that visited Port Town
send.
There 10 talk tonight Of calling w. #.
Hayes, the Port Townsend lawyer, to ac-
count for his imprudent and untruthful
statements ~ to the Sachs investigating
committee. If he shows up in Olympia
again he may be brought before the bar of
the House to explain. Lawyer Coleman
took pains to declare today that Hayes
was not authorized to represent Sachs in
Olympia.

PHILADELPHIA, June 12.-There are
to be more arrests in connection with the
Bardsley imbroglio. Warrants have
been sworn out and put in the hands of
detectives. A cloak of mystery is thrown
over this phase OF the case, and in their
efforts at concealment city officials con-
tradict themselves. But they cannot
hide the fact that warrants have been
sworn out, Their inactivity in making
'she arrests gives rumor fine chance to
connect itself to the names of several
men.
In court one bill of Indictment against
Bardsley was withdrawn, and strangely
enough, it was for the very charge that
caused his arrest. Still, there is maxi
mum sentence of sixty years possible
under his plea of guilty. Bank Examiner
Drew has been suspended pending an in
vestigation, and President Harrison has

the authorities and others who have
