WAsnixa1ox, D. O., August 1.-The
special committee OF the house inyesti-
eating tho Pinkerton detective system
and the employment Of guards at
Homestead, met today and agreed up
on a resolution for tho printing Of the
testimony taken. According to the
statement Of members of tho commit
tee, no final report will be made at
this session OF Congress.
Chairman Oates submitted 5000
word report, which hc desired the COM
mittec to adopt, but IT was full Of argu-
ments and conclusions, to which the
others disagreed, and it was therefore
rejected. Mr.. Bynum, OF Indiana, q
member OF tho committee, said this
evening that it was ono OF the most se-
rious subjects that the judiciary COM
mittee had ever undertaken to report
upon. So far as tho Pinkertons were
concerned the members were unani-
nous that the organization is an OBJ.
noxious one, but 1t would be task OF
great difficulty to frame o law that
would remedy the evil, and at the same
time not. interfere with the police pow
ers OF the state aud local authorities.

WxsT UxIoE, o., August 2.-At Ma

last night in the Methodist
church. A young man whom the
minister had publicly reproved
for Whispering in church, came in with
a number OF his friends and proceeded
10 create disturbance. He was warned
70 leave, but instead Of dong so at

Pcws and chairs were broken, win

hurt and some OF them thrown through

Ono Is Discovered by a brighton (EuG)
Astronomer
Bosroy, Nov. PA cable message re-
ceived from the European Union Of
Astronomers announces the discovery
OF a faint comet by Mr.. Freeman, of
Brighton, England. Its position on
November "a, .SS9 Greenwich moan
time, was right ascension, 0 hours, 20
minutes; declination north, so degrees,
8 minutes. It has n motion directly
south OF three degrees daily. 1t is
about six degrees south Of the Holmes
comet.
A science observer comet circular,
issued here to-day, announces officially
two elliptic orbits Of the Holmes comet,
ono computed by DR.. Kreutz, and
cabled from Europe, and the other COM
puted by Father Sears, of Washington.
The two orbits agree in period OF
from six to seven years for the comet,
in an orbit which is more nearly cir
cular than that Of any other comet ex-
cept Faye's. The comet passed its
nearest point to the sun some months
ago, and is now going away from both
earth and sun. For n comet so distant,
it is exceedingly bright, and should this
prove to be its normal condition, and
not due to some outburst, there seems
to be no reason why it should not be
seen constantly for some years to come.

New ORLEANS, La, Nov. 21-The
PieayuneS saltillo, Mexico, special
says: Hon. Joe Pancae, the jefe pOliti-
co, or mayor, of the town OF Arteaga,
about forty miles southeast of this city,
arrived here this morning after a ten
hours ride across the rough mountains.
He relates thrilling tory Of an acci-
dent that occurred at Arteaga yestor-
day, and the object OF his visit was to
secure medical aid for the unfortunate
victims.
Arteaga is town OF about 1900 in
haBftants, situated in the midst OF an
almost impenetrable mountain. The
population is made up of COW boys and
uoat herders. The fall destas were
opened there last Tuesday and were to
have been kept up for ten days. A fea-
ture OF these fiestas has been the bull
fights, the animals in that mountainous
section being noted throughout Mexico
for their ferociousness aud lighting
qualities. Two or three exhibition
fights were given during the week, but
the great event was postponed until
yesterday afternoon, when there were
to be four wild bulls turned into the
ring at one time.
The matador, or slayer OF the bulls,
was to be Manuel Lopez, daring Mex
lean vaoquero. AT 4p. m. there were
about $500 spectators around the arena.
The banorilia and matador took their
places and the bulls were turned In.
The scene was full Of excitement, and
the crowd was furnished with plenty OF
amusement by the activity OF the ban
derillos in keeping out Of the way OF
the enraged animals. After working
up the bulls into a state Of great frenzy,
Lopez got in to kill the first bull. He
gave tho animal thrust between the
shoulders with the sword, but the
wound was not fatal one.
The believing and wild capers of the
wounded animal stampeded the other
bulls and they made a united rush
against the heavy barricades which are
for the protection OF the spectators.
The barricade gave away and the bulls
rushed frantically into the crowd of
people who we're thrown right and left
by the animals horns In their excite
ment the spectators rushed to one side
OF the amphitheatre to escape the fury
OF the bulls. This caused the seats to
give wayand fully fifty people sustained
broken limbs and severe internal in
jures. The bulls killed one and wound
ed ten others.

PAPAn ooNsIsroRY.
Tho Holy Father Orders All Documents
Rondy by Deeember 10.


Rondy by December 10.
ROME, Nov. 27.-The Holy Father has
directed that all documents relating to
tho coming consistory shall be ready by
the 10th to the 18th OF December. This
order proves nothing decisive as to the
date OF the consistory. The Pope has
often delayed it, even when everything
was perfectly ready. This timeit seems
that the consistory may take place be-
yond the dates mentioned, in view Of
the fact that His Holiness is still pre-
occupied with the decision OF matters
OF grave political import. The political
situation in Europe fills his thoughts to
great extent. His Christmas discourse
four years ago was vibrating appeal
for peace.
The pope believes that war is nigh i'm.
possible and that an armed peace will
not only ruin the peoples OF the various
European countries, but will foster the
anarchists, who will rise sooner or later
in barbarious revolt. 1t is believed that
the time is not far distant when the
pope will determine upon urging COM
bination for general progressive dis,
armament
QuirinaI circles are greatly disquieted.
The diplomacy OF the Consulta, as ia
learned from absolutely certain sources,
is taking active and powerful measures,
at Vienna, London and Berlin, to stop
negotiations with France, which aim at
rapprochement between France, Aus
tria, England and Germany. The
Quirinal knows that an entente be-
tween England and France would
render its position net only difficult,
but dangerous. Italy would SO isolated.
and would have everything to fear,
both from the papal side and from the
national sentiment OF France. This ex-
plains why the Italian government now
coquettes with France. and protests
that Italy has always had q profound
friendship for the consistorY. A person
occupying high position has assured
the Associated Press correspondentthat
the days Of the triple alliance are num-
bered.

A DEMOCRATIC OUTRAGE.

Tho Advice OF tho Marion County Organ
FolIowsd-A Republican Commissioner
Counted Out in High Handed Manner.
Special DispaieA 10 ne intelligence.
FA1RMoxT, W. Va, Nov. 27.-It seems
that the Inder sounded the keynote for
the government OF the board of county
commissioners in canvassinG the vote
of Marion county, when it said Mr..
Fleming's majority was so small "that
it can easily be overcome by recount. +"
The recount was finished yesterday and
shows a majority Of two votes for Hart
ley (Dem.). Fleming lost 6 votes at
West Monongah, 8 at Pennington, at
Riyesville and 4 at Union. The COM
missioners OF election and clerks at
West Monongah were all good, careful
men, and the returns on the poll books
showed Floming 81 Republican votes
and Prohibition, and were so certified.
but when the county court canvassed
tho vote there were but 40 Republican
votes for him. The other q ballots were
there and were straight Republican
votes, but Floming's name was scratch
ed of, apparently showing that no one
was voted for. In an interview with
some OF the commissioners and clerks
who held the election at the precinct,
they claimed that no such UOteS 1rcre 1irsn
there, and 30 it was with tho other vot-
ing places. So the Democratic commits
sioner is counted in.
A recount OF the votes given for
magistrate in this district was made,
the returns showing majority OF five
votes for John Fisher over I. A. Flem-
ing. On the recount at noon yesterday
they were Just tie, but on tho finish
last evening Fisher had 4 majority.
They could count a Republican out, but
could not count one Of their own men
out.
This is the third case of this kind in
this county, and it is becoming monot-
onous. The people are very indignant
at the outrage. The cases in the past
were the Smith and Farbee contest and
the Kinsey and Carter affair.
