Terrible Mortality From sunstroke Re-
porte From Gotham.
New YORK, July 30.-Yesterday was
the worst and most malignant day of
all the eight of affection before the al
most unprecedented hot visitation
came to an end. The heat-weary and
worn out inhabitants of the mctropoli-
tan region arose this morning most Of
them from sleepless pliows-and looked
eagerly for some sign Of the promised re-
lief. Instead of GOODNESS in the air it was
hotter than ever. There was not 30
much as one breath in 1t to stir the
stagnant exhalations OF week of tor
rid temperatures and humidity. The
whole accumulation of the dreadful
heat seemed to hang on a palpable
mass in the streets. One could feel the
waves striking upward from the broil-
Ing pavements and downward from tho
copper-colored sun, and between the
two, men seemed to be ground be-
tween millstones.
One hundred and seventy persons
have died of the heat in New York and
its suburbs during these memorable
eight days, and nearly 300 others have
been Frustrated. Old-timers at police
headquarters united In declaring that
yesterday was the banner day in the
history of that efficient telegraph
bureau connected with the police de-
partment, SO far as the receipt of mes
sages from the thirty-six precincts and
the hospitals were concerned. All
previous records of this sort IN the de-
partment were smashed. No less than
| ninety-four persons succumbed to the
fearful heat.

DRUNK OR NOT DRUNK
The Great Question Now in Congress
Charges Refuted by the COMMITTEES.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The special
committee Of the House Investigating
the charges made by Mr.. Watson Of
Georgia that members had been seen
on the floor Of the House to staggar
and reel from drunkenness met this
morning.
Ex-Gov. Josiah Patterson of Tennes-
see was the first witness called. He
said he had never noticed a member
drunk on the floor of the House, and
30 far as he knew the statement
was untrue. He had known
Mr.. Cobb since his arrival
here as a member of the House, and
the day that Mr.. Cobb made his speech
on the Noyes- Rockwell contested cleo
ton he MIR. Patterson had listened to
him throughout his argument, which
was very long and exhaustive one. He
had seen Mr.. Cobb drink from a tea cup
but as to it's containing whisky he
could not state. AS to Judge Cobb's
being drunk he wished the public to
know it was not true.
Mr.. Bynum of Indiana was the next
witness. He said he was not in the
House the day that Judge Cobb spoke.
Mr.. Boatner asked HIM if he had ever
seen any member of the House
drunk on the floor Of the House Wit
ness replied that he had never seen
such thing, and was of the opinion
that such a thing had never taken
place on the floor
Mr.. Watson made statement to the
effect that he was satisfied with the
investigation, as it had proved that his
charges were true, and that he did not
intend to make the charge generally
against the House, but only against in
dividuals. Mr.. Simpson moved that
the question put to Mr.. Bynnm re-
speeding the general character of the
House as to sobriety be stricken out.
The committee overruled Mr.. Simp-
sons motion. Mr.. Bynum said that
this House was as sober and dignifed
body as he was ever in. The COM
mittee may report tomorrow.

PROVISIONS OF THE NAVAL BILL
Appropriation Made for Armor and ARM
ament.

Appropriation Made for Armor and ARM
WASHINGTON, Aug. IAN analysis
OF the new naval appropriation act
shows number of new items of appro-
priation and legislation. The most
important items are those for new
battle ship and new armored cruiser.
There is also So, 1000, 900 for armament,
which, together with the two
new ships, will give Secretary
Tracy an opportunity to make
contracts for the new navy before
he goes out of office, aggregating
nearly S12, 900, o0o He is now prepar-
Ing to advertise for bids for about S, 600
tons of armor-plate for the two new
ships and Several others already build
ing. He had expected to advertise for
the ships as soon as the bill became
law, but he prefers now to have the
plans entirely perfected and will wait
until after the vacation period before
inserting bids. Provision is made for
torpedo outfits for the Atlantic, Chi
cago, and Boston, which are
the only vessels of the new
navy that have not had such outfit
included in their plans. The sum of
100000 is made available this year for
the equipment of new vessels. Other
new items of appropriation in the act
are $50, 900 for naval rendezvous; S25, 900
for new tools and machinery on Mare
Island; 100000 for test of torpedos,
submarine guns, etc; $50. 900 for the
construction of a special high-power
cannon for throwing high explosives,
$4,000 for improvements on Indian
head proving grounds.
