Will Repeal the Bennett Law.

WI ~ 1AO
MADISON, Wis.,, Jan. 22.-There is little
doubt but the democrats will succeed in
their effort to repeal the Bennett school
law, though the republicans will make a
determined fight for its retention. The
democrats will then present a measure to
correct the defects in the old law of 1887,
and providing for compulsory education
and prohibition OF child labor in factories.
The republicans to-day introduced in the
senate a bill in the nature of substitute for
the Bennett law. The proposed act provides
that every parent or other person having
under his control a child between the ages
of seven and thirteen years shall cause the
said child to attend some public, private
or parochial school during
the school year for a peri,d
Of not less than twelve weeks, but the pro.
vision is made for an excuSe on account OF
physical disability. The fourth section
touches a IL after which was the hinge OF
the campaign, in which the supporters OF
the Bennett law suffered overwhelming de-
feat. 1t meets the objections Of the sup
pOrters of p%arOchial schools, while 1t at
the SAINT time maintains the principle OF
education in the legal language OF the
country. The section is as follows; Every
parent or other person having under his
control a child between the age of seven
and thirteen years shall furnish it such in.
structi0n in the English language as shall
enable it to read and write some, but THU
act shall not be construed to prohibit any
other language or branches of learning.

A NOVEL EXHIBIT.

HI United States Will Have q Full
Rugged Battle Ship at the Worlds
Fair.
CHICAGO, Jan. &.-Lieutenant Tausslg
today made his official report on the ma
ture of the United States navy depart
ment's Worlds Fair exhibit. 1t will rep
resent a full-sized modern battle ship, and
will be erected on piling on the lake shore
In Jackson park. The structure will have
all of the fittings which belong to an actu-
al ship, such a guns, turrets, torpedo
tubes, torpedo nets, ETC.. besides a corps
of officers and seamen. Gun and torpedo
drills will be given daily. 1t is proposed,
at the conclusion of the fair, to turn this
vessel over to the city of Chicago for use
as q naval drill place for the use of the ma
val reserve of the lake. The boat will be
named "lllinois." No work was done on
the lake front to-day. 1t appears that the
turning of a little earth and the driving of
q few stakes was for the purpose of taking
l0rmal possession and to fOrestall any pos
sible legal procee dings by the abutting
property owners.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The senate met
at IL a. H., in continuation of Thursdays
session. There wa no prayer, 10 journal
and no morning hour, but there was a call
of the roll, which showed a quorum pres
ent. Stewart took the floor to address the
senate on the closure resolution. but yield
ed toN motion by Frye for an executive
session, which was brief, and he soon re-
sumed his speech. At The close of Stew
arts speech, Sanders took the floor, but
yielded ia Aldrich, who wanted to fix a
time to vote. So many wanted to speak
that he had to yield the point, and Sanders
proceeded in advocacy of the proposed rule
and of the elections bill. He reminded the
democratic senators that there was a dit
ference between freedom OF debate and
unlimited debate. He declared that the
elections bill was a bill of peace. 1t might
be beaten, but that would be simply post
pOning the question. If it were beaten
then, congress would adjourn on the 4th of
March next, leaving q deep and grlev0us
wrong ranking in the bOsOms of 10 per
cent. Of The people of the country, and with
the consciousness that an injustice was he
ing perpetrated in the light Of day. He
thought the people demand u bill as
this. Morgan spoke and still held the floor
when recess was taken till Monday.

The Supreme Court Hand Down Q Deci-
sion in the G~ubernatorisl Contest.
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 22.-The triangular
contest over the go%vernorship of Nebraska
reached an interesting stage to-day. The
Independents have been e%ndeavoring for
two days to proceed with the Powers-Boyd
gubernatorial contest without recognizing
Boyd as governor and without presenting
the call for a joint convention to him for
signature. Yesterday the whole matter
was presented to the supreme court for
settlement, and today the court handed
down a decision declaring that, under the
constitution of the state, 10 joint c0nven-
ton can be held unless it has been ordered
by regular resolution, which must pass
both houses and receive the approval of
the governor. The decision has
caused the greatest CONSERVATION
among the independents. They must now
proceed to pass another resolution calling
a second convention OF both houses of the
this. If the governor refuses to sign
the resolution under the supreme court de.
cisiOn, no contest can be held, and Boyd
will remain in the chair. The independ-
ents claim the resolution calling a cOnven-
ton to contest the right of the governor to
his seat is legal without the signature of
that official. 1t is generally admitted it
ought to be possible to proceed to y con.
test without the consent of the principal
contestee, but the constitution is mandatory
on that point, and there seems no legal
way around it. How independents will
proceed if Boyd refuses to sign resolution
cannot be foretold. Tonight they bitterly
attack the supreme court, and rail fiercely
at all influences that they think have
brought them into their present unhappy
plight. There is talk that they will now
drop the contest. If they do, the only OBJ
stacles in Boyd's way will be proceedings
to test his citizenship instituted by Ex-
Governor Thayer,

ST. PAUL, Jan. 22.-The house this morn

resolution memorializing congress in favor
of the election of the president by the people
was considered and passed, but later was

tigation resolutions were introduced, but
they are the same as the others that pre-.

bills introduced vas n by Dougherty,

state complete control Of railroad officials
and creating a railroad examiner with du-
ties analogous to those of bank examiner.

Sundays Storm Blows Down Al
most All the Wires for Miles
Around New York.
The Great Telegraph and Telephone
Companies are Paralyzed for
the First Time.
The Western Union Has Only Three
Wires Working Ont Of
1900.

NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-For the first time
in the history of the great telegraph and
telephone companies which center in this
city, they are paralyzed. Never before
have they experienced such complete
II absolute havoc. The condition of
their lines during the memorable blizzard
was nothing compared with the state of
things Geographic today. The storm of
yesterday was by all odds the worst the
telegraph companies have ever had to deal
with. The sleet storm in 1881 had a rec
ord for general havoc. because it laid low
every wire belonging to any company in
this town. But yesterdays storm went
further even than that. An idea of how
much wrecking of lines was done may be
gathered from the fact that out of 1900
Union company has but three wires work
ing this morning. The rest, with the poles
that supported them, now lie be. ide the
railroad tracks ana across fields and are
caught in the trees. The Postal Telegraph
company actually had not II wire work
ing out from the city, while the Metropoli-
tan Telegraph and Telephone company
roughly estimates that $500 of their wires
have been laid low. The total damage to
the companies mentioned which will re"
suit from this condition of affairs is rough
ly estimated at S500.O00.
TWO WEEKS INCREASING EFFORT
will be required to get the wires back
into 1.-The condition which existed before
the storm broke and tore down the poles
and wires. Between Philadelphia and
Trenton, and between that point and New
Brunswick, the Geographic equipment is
totally wrecked along The line Of the
Pennsylvania railroad, where ran some OF
the heaviest trunk lines. Poles and wires
are scattered about on the ground. All
the eastern wires are down between
Williams Bridge and Stamford, and all the
western wires between Williams Bridge
and Croton Falls are in the same condition.
At Pl%easantville, which is just back OF
Sing Sing. every wire is down for a dis
company's wires which ran along the
line OF the West Shore railroad is down
south of Cornwall. The poles in the same
direction are also lying beside the railroad
tracks. The Western Union wires, which
ran through jersey are piled into
small heaps on the Jersey flats, not a
pole can be seen standing across the
pany received from their employees who
came in IN the trains this morning.
The wires cannot be- got into complete
working order for two weeks. In this
city the number of wires down is roughly
estimated ut 4.500, and the poles down or
broken at $50. In addition to the forest of
poles that were strewn about. the track.
GUS condition. Immense gangs Of men
were busy removing snow and wreck,
and towards afternoon matters began to.
assume a more cheerful appearance.
