The Democratic Senators say that no
Republican shall succeed Justice Lamar
and declare that if President Harrison
sends the name of one to the Senate they
will resort to filibustering to defeat con-
firmation AS the previous question is
unknown in the Senate and as there is
absolutely no way to check debate under
the existing rules there is much doubt
that the Democrats can accomplish their
purpose. Of course the Republicans
might make rule to limit debate, but
that would be against precedent and pre-
cedent is king in the Senate.

The Cows Were All Drunk.

When Farmer Jacob Christman, of
day he was astonished at the antics of
his large drove of cows. They were all
staggering about like so many drunken
men. They beloved, threw their heads
and tails in the air and acted like circus
horses prancing to the time Of brass
band. 1t was the worst lot of jig steps
the farmer had ever seen. The cows
were intoxicated, but how they came to
be so was mystery until a veterinary
surgeon was called. He found that the
cattle had broken into corn field and
the green corn they had eaten ferment-
ed in their stomachs, causing intoxica-
ton.

A Pleasant Party,

The Daughters of Mary Sodality held
soiree in the basement of st. AIMS
church on Saturday evening. The festi-
vities commenced about 9 o'clock, in
the picnic ground, when dancing was
started and kept up until 7.
At this hour the young ladies and their
invited guests repaired to the basement
in couples and sat down to an excellent
repast. This was furnished and spread
by the young ladies personally, each
member contributing something of her
own manufacture. There was an abun-
dance of fruit of various kinds.
While this was in progress the orches-
ira played several pieces. The affair
was very successful, and gained for the
sodality many pleasant comments, and
for those who were most active in the
management many expressions of thanks
and appreciation.

Odd Fellows Picnic.

From the Journal.
The White Haven Odd Fellows Re-
lief Association at Mountain Park was
the best attended and one of the most
enjoyable of any in that organization's
history. There were 1457 special excur-
sion tickets sold, of which 500 came from
the Upper Lehigh region. Besides these
there were hosts of children, who were
carried free. Altogether it is estimated
that there were from $500 to 5000 people
ON the grounds, making it the banner
excursion at the Park up to Saturday
of this year.
The music was special feature. The
concert by Mayberry's band was unus-
ually fine, and was much enjoyed. This
band is superior organization, and
practically gave its services free on this
occasion.
The association will net about $400
from this picnic, which sum will be ex-
pended in relieving the want and dis
tress of needy families, as has been Gus
tomary

VALLEY OFFICIALS INDIGNANT.
A Rumor Likely to Put the Management
in n Bad Light is Denied.

Lehigh Valley Railroad officials are
considerably incensed at the statement
put forth the other day that the COM
pany, with floating debt of $500, 900,
was in need of 100000 at once, and
that an effort was being made to raise
the amount. If successful it was said
that this would prevent the contem-
plated sale of the 100000 tons of coal
recently received from the Reading.
Inquiry as to the correctness of this
story having been made of Third Vice
President Garrett, by prominent New
York banker, he gave forth the follow
ing reply:
philadelphia, Sept. l, '93.-Your let
ter of yesterday received. 1t gives us
the first intimation of the report that we
required two millions at once. 1t is
wholly false, and we have no pending
application for loans here or elsewhere.
The report probably has its basis in this:
The individual operators whose contracts
lapsed by cancellation of the lease desire
the Lehigh Valley Company to revive
them. We decline unless they furnish
for five or seven years the capital re-
quired to conduct the business, esti-
mated at about two millions. They may
have asked such a loan on pledges of
Lehigh Valley securities, but only on
their own note or other negotiable obli-
CATION. We have steadfastly declined
to add to our floating debt for this pur-
pose. The amount of our floating debt
is correctly stated and amply secured by
collateral"
Mr.. Garrett also stated that his re-
ply gave to the public the present status
of the negotiations between the indi-
vidual operators and the Lehigh Valley
Coal Company. This, briefly summar-
lied, is that the Lehigh Valley Coal
Company has consented to continue
temporarily the old contracts which
lapsed by the cancellation of the Lehigh
Valley-Reading lease, and has refused
to continue these contracts indefinitely.
All other questions between the opera
tors and the coal company remain un-
determined and undecided.
