The following item from the Evening
Telegram, will point a moral for the
digestion of several householders of
this city. The nuisance is even more
prevalent here than in Portland: Last
night, on Glisan street between Twen-
tieth and Twentysfirst, a gentleman,
driving a single horse in a buggy, came
near having a serious accident, as a
result only of the carelessness of peo-
pie living on the south side of tho
street. 1t seems that there has been a
lot of wood cut there and left in the
street, filling all the space between the
sidewalk and the car track. 1t was
loosely lying about in a big pile for a
distance of ten or fifteen feet. 1t is
also rather dark on Glisan street on
this block. AS the gentleman was driv-
ing at fairly rapid speed, neither he
nor the horse detected the wood soon
enough, and the latter collided with
it, with full force. The horse stumbled
and fell and the driver was thrown
from the buggy. Fortunately he was
not seriously hurt, and the horse was
able to regain his feet. On reaching
the stable it was found that the horses
front legs were very badly cut up. Not
only were they skinned, but in many
places chunks of flesh were cut out,
and there were several other bad
bruises, so that the animal cannot be
used for a week or more. Such care
lessness on the part of the owners of
the wood is almost criminal, and they
should either have 1t removed or place
lanterns on it so that it can readily be
seen. There are score of other plac-
es where like accidents might occur,
and the police should take steps to
notify the responsible parties"

Strong Pr blb,iiiy That Wilson Bill
Will Not Be PJSSet.
TIE COMBINATION AGAINST IT.
Is Believed to lie Too Powerful for 1t TO
Escgp, Death-siiver scnators Stick
Together -Repubiicans Not In Favor
OF Partial Protection.


New fURK,. Dec. 2s.-ff1c Recorders
Washington special, says: The senators
representing states that are interests in
coal, iron, wool, lumber and sugar are so
strong in numbers that II they should all
combine against a bill containing proyi-
sions inimical TO those interested they
could alone secure its defeat. In the
present constitution of the esehate any two
OF those senators, by standing with the
Republicans and silver men, could render
any tariff legislation out OF the question.
1t is certain now that the only way IN
which the Representatives of any special
interest can save it from unfavorable leg
islation will be through voting against
the bill in its entirety. Not only is the
general sentiment among the Republican
leaders that ii would be bad policy to
assist any Democratic senator
to amend the bill along pro-
lection lines in the interest Of
some particular industry, but there is a
positive combination on the part of cer-
tain Repu blcans to render this sentiment
effective. There are seven senator's from
silver states, headed by Senator Dubois,
who have pledged themselves 20 vote to
put on the free list any article for which
any Democratic senator attempts To secure
special protective Legislation. This number
is believed to be sufficient, in combination
with the Populists and genuine "revenue
only" Democrats, to insure the defeat of
any amendment increasing the duty pro-
vided by the original bill, even though
some Republicans from manufacturing
centres should feel compelled to vote in
favor of such an amendment through fear
Misrepresentation In their own states.
The result of all this has been quiet
understanding among several Democratic
senator's that unless the Wilson bill Is
radically changed before it IS reported to
the senate, they will vote against ii and
dafeat all tariff legislation rather than sec
the sections injuriously affecting he inter-
ests OF their own states enacted into law.
The feeling in the senate has served To
accentuate the opposition in the house
and TO encourage the malcontents there
TO combinations to amend or delay the
enactment Of the bill. The condition of
affairs hos been placed before the prcsi-
dent in the last few days in such q light
that he has been forced TO call into coun-
Gil some of the administration leaders in
the senate.

INAUGURATION DAY.
MAYOR-ELECT OLNEY,S INAUG.
URAL WILL BE BRIEF.
Heads of Departments Getting Ready for
ter Getting Ready to Move Out.

Mayor Potter will not deliver any re-
tiring address on Inauguration day. He
will simply join the solemn procession
which marches down the middle aisle,
and will preside until the oath of Office is
administered to his successor. Mayor
Olney's inaugural is brief, not exceeding
in length the second message of Mayor
Potter. The chaplain of the
day will be Rev. Augustus M. Lord,
pastor OF the First Unitarian church on
Benefit street. Mayor Potter is busily
engaged today in preparing his personal
effects for removal, and notably among
them are his clever camera sketches anG
contents of his private reception room.
Secretary Walker Is instructing his sue
cessor, Mr.. Joyce, into the mysteries
of the clerical duties. The at
mospherc of hospitality and informality
which had permeated the executive de-
partment for the past two years, has
been delightful, and both will retire with
best wishes of the army OF visitors Of all
classes and conditions which have inva-
riably met with cordial and considerate
reception.
The heads of the several departments
are burning the midnight electrics in
liminary arrangements are being made for
the thorough renovation OF the building
for the ceremonies of Inauguration day.
Invitations are being issued to the guests
which will be admitted to the
chamber, and the gallery will be re-
served as usual for the wives and lady
friends of the members-elect. The for
lists are being charged with orders for
the preparation of floral tributes
which will adorn the desks of the
favored members, and the city clerk
in such moments as he can spare
from the laborious duty involved
ed in registration is getting ready the
routine business so as to facilitate the
proceedings. Clerk Hayden is busy at the
same task, and consequently there will be
no interruption to the clock-like regular
ity and facility with which the organiZa-
tion OF the new city government will be
conducted.

cult court. 81 do not intend" said Mr..
Strout, Ito charge counsel on the side
with misrepresentation, but i think they
were misled and can't think that Judge
Townsend would have acted as he did
had he not been led to believe that
the immediate appointment OF a receiver
was necessary To prevent attachments
when application was made to him.
There will come up some interesting ques-
tions when the hearing is had in January.
There will come up the question OF how
many receivers shall be appointed The
decree of Judge Wallace contemplates the
management of the entire road by Mr..
Platt. There is no reason why the latter
should not be appointed anciIIary receiver
for Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. Mr..
Patt is ready to file any bond required
at once.
In reply TO Mr.. Strout, Mr.. Perkins said
that IL Mr.. Hart is appointed he will be
practically receiver for the whole road,
for in New York state there is practically
nothing-about II miles out OF 400.
Judge Colt said "It seems to me that
the appointment OF either Mr.. Patt or
Mr.. Hart would operate injuriously for
the property. There are conflicting
interests. 1t wovld seem from the earnest
ness with which counsel press for the
appointment OF their respective receivers
that there is some advantage to be
gained by the temporary appointment.
There must be something back OF these
efforts. Neither perty should be allowed
and advantage, and therefore think that
both Mr.. Platt and Mr.. Hart should be
appointed with third receiver, and I
will appoint those two and sMarsden j.
Perry third receiver, bonds to be $4,000
EACH"
These receivers are for the states Of
Rhode Island and Massachusetts,.

RECEIVERS OF NEW ENGLAND.
For the States OF Massachusetts and
Rhode Island-Tho Appointments
Thought to be Victory for the Stock
Holders and against Consolidated Desi.


BosroN, Dec. 29.--Judge Colt in U. ..
court this morning appointed Thomas u
Platt of New York, William I. Hart OF
Boston and Marsden j. Perry Of Provi-
dence, to be receivers for the New
England railroad for the states
of Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
They are to furnish bonds to the amount
of $50 1000 each, and will qualify today.
As Mr.. Perry is believed to be favor
able to the Platt contingent this
action of Judge Colt is big victory for
the roads friends and is materially against
the supposed Consolidated deal in the in
terest of which the appointment of Hart
was sought.
1t gives the power to Messrs. Perry and
Platt as they are the majority of the re-
ceivers.
Mr.. Hart is an ex-president Of the road
and a trustee OF the sec
ond mortgage bondholders, while
both Platt and Perry are directors of the
New England, and are friendly to the
stockholders and the present manage
ment.
