DRUNKANNS IN TIE HOUSE
A TIIIRn PARTY MAN NJ tIxES
THE CHARGE.
Other Representative Indignant
and arr Investigation Ordered
FiIibus'cIing ON The Worlds
Fair .AImcndInent.

Fair Amendment.
WASHINGTON, July 29.-Thc Worlds
fair matter was delayed this morning in
! the house by a question of privilege
raised by MIR Wheeler of Alabama, rcla-
tive to certain statements contained in a
campaign book recently published by
Representative Watson of Georgia, tall
ance and third party mani reviewing The
action of the present congress and the
position taken by its members in the
past. The house was thrown into state
of great confusion, resulting from tie
assertion by Mr.. Watson, that every
word written in the book to which
Wheeler referred was literally true.
and that he stood here ready to defend
every word OF them.
The assertion was greeted with pro-
longed Kisses as the words charge that
drunken members reel through the
aislcs and drunken members speak upon
grave measures"
Watson was promptly called to order
by Mr.. Tracy, OF New York, who was
indignant over the wholesale charge
upon the house. Watson was then per-
mitted to explain his language, but only
reiterated his assertion as to the truth
of the statement made by him and defied
the house to do with him what it wish
ed.
Mr.. Boatncr introduced resolution
calling for the appointment of a com.
mittee to investigate the truth of Wat
sons charge relative to the drunkenness
of members of the house and to recon-
mend what course shall be taken with
respect to Watson if the charge was
found to he untrue. Boatncr asked for
immediate action on the resolution and
it was adopted without division.
1t was after 1880 when the house re-
sumed consideration of the Worlds fair
amendments to the sundry civil appro-
priation bill. I'ilibustering was imme-
diately begun. Cummings of New York,
assuming command of filibusterers and

IN WHICH COUNTY Z?

singular Dispute Over the Proper Loca-
tion of "A Pennsylvania Coal Town.
HoNEsDALE, Pa, Dec. 49, Ten years
ago anthracite coal was discovered in the
Lackawanna, several miles north OF the
point where geologists and mining ex-
perts had set as the furthest possible place
where anthracite would ever be Sound in
the LackawaDna field in paying qualities.
The Carbondale branch OF the Erie rail-
road ran through the region where the
new discovery was made, and ii was then
an unbroken forest. The Erie became in
terested in the discovery, and develop
ments were made, resulting in the open
ing of a valuable new anthracite field. a
town soon grew up in the wilderness, and
was called Forest City.
The place has become one of the largest
and most important places in the valley.
The new coal field Is on tine borders o!
Wayne, Lackawanna, and Susquehanna
counties, and Forest City WAS supposed to
be in the latter county. Taxes have been
levied and paid by the city to SusquehanDa
county ever since il came into existence,
and the county has been represented in
the Legislature by a citizen of Forest
City.
The growing Importance of the town has
increased the wealth and Importance Of
Susquehanna county correspondingly, but
now the claim is made by Lackawsnne
county that the city is not in Susquehann6
county al all, but in Lsckswanna, and
preliminary surveys indicate that the claim
is correct.
1t is not admitted by susquehanna, how
ever, and the case will have to go into the
courts before Forest City may know which
county she is in. If it is Lackawanna
county, many serious complications will
result and no end OF litigation.

FALL RIVERS BIG BLAZE.
Staples Coal Co.'s Wharf Property wrecks
Schooner Damaged.

Staples Coal Co.'s wharfProperty wrecke ed
Schooner Damaged.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Dec. 10. Yesterday
great crowds visited the scene OF Saturday
nights big fire on the Staples Coal Com
pany's wharf property, Davol street. The
machines of the fire department did not
begin to leave there until long after mid
night, and some portions of the place will
continue TO burn for many hours To come.
The boilers OF several engines were to-
tally destroyed. They had been used for
hosting and conveying coal. A large
Chase elevator, costing over 81, 900, which
was used for lifting coal from the holds OF
vessels, was practically rendered useless
by falling across the stern OF the three
masted schooner Elwood NARROW.
Two-thirds OF the longest coal shed on
the north side OF Rodmans wharf will
have to be torn down. There were about
5000 tons of various grades of coal stored in
the sheds and much OF IL has been materi-
ally reduced in marketa BILE value by being
mixed and soaked with water.
Schooner Marlow is virtually wreck
the flames having spread To her rigging,
about as soon as they were discovered.
The mainmast was burned to the step.
The vessel will have to be rebuilt from
amidships astern, and several captains say
she Will be useless except as barge. She
Is aground.
The report that one OF her crew was
drowned, was without foundation, and
probably arose from the sudden death of
n. A. Ford. He had been running one OF
the engines OF the coal elevator up to
O'Clock p. m, and about p. IN. he
dropped dead In his home on Dayol street,
from heart disease.
Agent Chase OF the coal company, who
was knocked overheard and suffered a
fracture of the ankle, besides bodily in
jury, inflicted through being struck by
falling timbers, il in a comfortable condi-
ito nand will undou btedly recover. Be
yond general idea Of the losses, the Off
cials of the company can yet give no def
nie figures showing the amount OF dam
see done.
