Barrow was an Insignificant hamlet

commercial prosperity of Barrow.
Middlesbrough began in an even
smaller way Sixty-five years ago q

nances and padding mills make the

THE EXTRA SESSION.
But Few Members and Senators in WASH
ingtOn YOt.

1nHtOn aB HOt.
WASHINGTON, July 3l.-Although the
two houses will be called together In
one week from to-day, close search re-
vealed the presence in the city at noon
to-day of but fifteen Democratic Repre-.
sentatives. Only three Senators ap.
peared at the Capitol to-day, and it is
doubtful il there are more than half.
dozen Senators in town. 1t is not easy
to ascertain with certainty, for doubt
less some OF the members and Senators
have followed the example set by Sem
ator Mills, of Texas, who has gone
quietly TO private boarding house, and
has refrained from giving his address
even to the officers OF the Senate post
Offices.
Elk Speaker Crisp was accessible this
morning at his hotel, and received MANY
visits from mem bers. Most OF them
had suggestions to make respecting
their preferences in the committee as
signmentS.
Crisp has been steadily non com ittal
in his own expressions. He believes
that the work Of this special session
will continue without sensible
intermission till next December.
he hopes that the regular session OF the
Fifty third Congress will ad journ early
next summer, so that the time spent in
the special Sc ssion will really be saved
at the end Of the regular session. 1t ia
understood that the announcement of
committee appointments will not be
made within week or ten days of the
assembling OF Congress, and this fact
has revived the scheme, which is brought
to the front at the beginning of every
Congress, Of passing a resolution allow
ing members to introduce bills and
resolutions subject to reference to com.
mittees as soon as the latter are ap-
pointed. There is no real saving of
time consequent upon this practice, but
it has the advantage, most important
in the eye OF new member, OF enabling
him to forestall his Senator in the intro
duction eff some measure Of interest to
his own constituency.
Surprise is expressed that the Gus
tomary call for Democratic House
caucus has not yet been issued. Hol-
man, OF Indiana, is chairman OF the
caucus and it is his function to issue
this call, but he has not yet arrived in
Washington.
The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1893-08-01

LONDON, July 31.--A dispatch to the
Central News from Bangkok, dated
Monday, p. m. says: TIE uneasiness
among the people here. far from lessen
ing, is increasing. Seven more French
gunboats have arrived at Koh- 81 Chang,
aking total of thirteen now here.
Negotiations are still going on, but the
progress made is not reported. The in
tentions of the French are awaited with
fear and apprehension. Rear Admiral
Human, commanding the French squad
ron, has issued q second blockade notice
to take effect three days from Satur-
day. He will order the British warships
Pallas and Swift, now lying off Bangkok
to 60 outside the blockade limits. M.
Pavie, French minister resident, has
gone to Saigon and Rear Admiral
Human is under direct orders from
Paris unless the French government
interposes quickly an attack on Bangkok
seems certain. The trading community
is prised that Human is still allowed
free hand.
LONDON, July 31.-The Standard TO-
day received the following dispatch
from its Paris correspondents:
lowing to representations made to
Lord Dufferin, British ambassador to
France, the question of the neutral
zone between the French possessions in
the Siumese peninsula and British
Burmann and the Shan states has been
settled satisfactorily. 1t has been
agreed that the French blockade of the
Siamese coast shall be raised immedi-
ately."
No confirmation of tho foregoing has
been received up to a late hour tonight.
Replying in the house of com mons to.
day to question asked by Geo. Curzon
(conservative), Sir Edward Grey, par
liamentary secretary of the foreign
office, said that he was unable to give
any exact information regarding tho
blockade of the Siamese coast and the
occupation OF several islands by the
French. 1t was understood, however,
that the occupation of the islands was
only temporary, being in some way con-
nected with the blockading operations.
1t did not appear that any British
vessels had been seized by the French.
The information at hand showed that
two or three British vessels had been
stopped under misapprehenson.

Thrust Through the Body by u Lever In n
Chicago Street Car.
CHICAGO, July 3l.-An open car struck
the east end OF the Harrison street
bridge yesterday afternoon, loosening a
heavy pointed hardwood tigh tening
lever from its fastenings The lever
swung around directly against the right
side of the car.
Miss Nellie Riordan, of Seiden street,
sat near the right hand outer edge OF a
seat near the middle of the car. The
poinLed end of the lever struck her in
the groin, passed through her body and
made hole in the back of the seat in
which she was sitting. The lever ex-
tended twenty inches through the body
OF the women, pinning her to the frag
ment Of the seat left unbroken by the
fearful crash.
The lever was sawed off two feet from
Miss Riordan's body, and with portion
of the lever still penetrating her body
she was conveyed to the county hos pital
A priest and her friends were sent for
and restoratives were applied.
The hospital surgeons then removed
the piece Of lever from her body, after
which she sank rapidly and in few
minutes died from loss of blood
