In Senate and House.

WAsHINoToS, April li.-The greater part of
the day was passed by the senate in considera-
tion Of bills on tho calendar quite a number
of which were passed. by way of interlude
the Genry Chinese exclusion bill was adversely
reported, the senate insisting upon its own
measure concerning existing laws. Mr.. Nor
gan als. delivered another speech on the silver
question. The house embarked upon sea of
legislation, and at times was without rud-
der. The first snag was a bill proposed by Mr.
Bailey Cfe&.), who has objected upon all oc-
casons to transaction of business without a
quorum, and when he moved to pass u bill
granting the right Of way to the Gainesville,
Oklohoma and Gulf railroad through the In
dian Territory, no quorum voting, the point
was made against him, but finally the bill was
passed. The remainder of the session was
devoted to the consideration of the naval ap-
preparation bill, several hours being con-
sumcd in the discussion of a point OF order on
the item providing for n new battle ship.
Pending action the matter went over.

KANSAS FARMERS PROSPEROUS
More of Them Own Their Homes THAI
Do Farmers in Ohio.


WAsHISGToN, April 14.-Senator PEI
fer yesterday received Il letter from tbs
superintendent of the census in answer
to an inquiry relative to farm and home
ownership and Indebtedness in Kansas.
and Ohio. Mr.. Porter was unable Il.
give totals for the states, but gave fig
urca Of ten average counties of each.
state. The letter shows that sixty
seven per cent. of Kansas farmers own
the farms they occupy, while in OHIO
Only siNty-three per cent own the farms
they occupy.
1aking the total town and country
population, y per cent. of Kansas fam
lilies own the homes they occupy and
only 80 per cent. of Ohio families own
the homes they occupy. The debt
against encumbered Kansas homes
averages FS]G, Willie in Ohio it averages
$l,554.
The percentage of farm debts for pur-
chase money, farm improvements, bust
ness, etc, was about equal in the two
states. The number of Kansas farmers
owing purchase money or other indebt-
edness against their farms is naturally
greater in the new state, the percentage
in Kansas being 81 and in Ohio 20.
On the whole, the report shows the
condition of the farmers is more satis-
factory than any other class, as a much
larger proportion of them own their
homes, while the Indebtedness against
farms shows a smaller percentage Of
their total value than the Indebtedness
against town and city homes.

SEVEN MEN INSTANTLY KILLED.

Their Bodies Terribly Mutilated by

Mans LimbIess Trunk Found Four
Hundred Yards From the Scene
OF the Disaster.
SCRANTON, Pa, April 1.-THE glaz-
ing mill of the Moosic Powder company,
located on the outskirts of the village of
Moosic, five miles south of this city, ex-
ploded with terrific force yesterday.
Seven men were hurled to instant death,
horribly mangled and charred, and four
others badly injured. The victims are:
Killed-David Parry, aged %, mar

The victims of the explosion met with
terrible deaths. Their bodies, excepting
that Of Reese, were found within the
enclosed yard of the powder works. The
bodies, terribly mutilated, were quickly
recovered by the villagers who were on
the scene within a few minutes after
the explosion. The body of Reese was
not found for an hour after the accident.
1t had been hurled fully 400 yards away,
and nothing remained of it but the limb
less trunk. The corning mill, about
400 feet away from the glazing factory,
was shattered by the first explosion, and
some of the burning timbers hurled
from the glazing mill caused fifty kegs
ofpowder to explode there. -Four men
were in the corning mill and three of
them were blown out of one door. The
other man, William Green, was hurled
into Spring brook.
ThesCause a Mystery.
The cause of the explosion is not
known and probably it will ever remain
mystery. Five minutes before the
shock came William Weir left the glaz-
ing mill with load of powder on a
truck. He says that the men had fin
1shed their work for the day. The mill
was stopped and the men were standing

this moment the explosion occurred.
There We're 600 kegs of powder in the
building, which was large two story
structure, 75xjO feet, and which was
totally wrecked, nothing remaining to
mark the spot where the mill had stood
except the foundation and few Of the
larger timbers.
The yard for 400 feet around was lit
tered with remnants of the mill and its
contents, while the trees which sur
rounded the mill were shattered to
pieces.
Reese's arms had been burned off to
the elbows and his face was greatly dis
figured. All the victims were drawn
mp and the frightfnl scorching through
which they passed was apparent all over
them. The hands of some and the legs
OF others had been burned off. What
ever of the remains of the victims could
be found were placed in rough wooden
boxes.
