in the Senate.
A SYNOPSIS OF THE BILL.
Anti-Ontion Again Discussed by Senator
George.

Again, But Goes over
Without Action.

y WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-The quaran-
tine bill which passed the House today,
though in general purport is similar to
the Senate measure on the same subject,
will have to pass the scrutiny of the latter
today. The bill, as it passed the House,
requires all vessels clearing for the United
States to obtain from the consul or officer
OF the consul at the port of departure q
bill of health. The president authorized
to detail medical officer to serve in the
Office of the consulate at any foreign port
for The purpose of furnishing information
and giving bills of health; the Marine
hospital service shall cooperate with the
state and municipal boards of health in
the enforcement of the rules of
such boards; and the regulations
prescribed by the secretary of the
treasury to prevent the Introduction
of contagious and infectious diseases into
the United States from foreign countries
and from one state into another. But
nothing shall be construed to warrant
a federal official in relaxing state rules.
On the arrival of an affected vessel at any
port not provided with proper facilities
for treatment. the Secretary of the Treas
ury may remand the vessel to the nearest
national or other quarantine.
Senator Chandlar said this afternoon
that as soon as it is practicable after the
bill came over from the House he would
call it up. He thought the bill would be
amended so as to conform to the provision
of the bill as it passed the Senate and

The natives are more excited than at any

AFTER THE DEAN.
Denver's Alien Preacher Said to Have
Fallen from Grace.
He Poses as All That Is Good, But Does
Not Garry Out What He
Processes.

DENVER, Colo, Jan. 23.-[Special. i
After the thousands of people that as
sembled last night to mob the very Rev.
Dean Hart of St. Johns cathedral had
dispersed and gone to their homes, there
was a practical exhibition of the DR..
Jelzell and Mr.. Hyde. The dean has
posed before the people of Denver for
some time as the essence of temperance,
morality and religion and the people be-
ljeved him to be a sincere crank of the
style of DR.. Parkhurst, but an idea of his
inward life may be gathered from occur
rences at the deanery under the clouds OF
night.
| The police escorted the dean to his home
when it was apparently safe to do so,
when he invited the few policemen that
escorted him home to the inside. Then
for hours the back door of the deanery
was kept swinging on its hinges and the
growler utilized to quench the thirst of
his new found guests, when the dean S
cellar became exhausted. The party
broke up after jolly good time and the
guests were unanimous in their opinion
that the dean was jolly good ,ellow and
all right, but that he had to do something
to hold his job.
Now that this new phase of the case has
become public, the dean will probably
have to retire from the church ignomini-
ously, as his predecessor, Rev. Mr..
Broody, had to do. Rev. Broody, two
years ago, attended an amateur opera
given by the members of his flock, and
the next Sunday roasted the female mem
bers for their shocking immodesty in ex-
posing their person. After service that
Sunday several hundred young ladies
called on the dean and Mr.. Broody had
to resign Immediately.
One of the funniest scenes last night
was at the Wonderland theatre, where
Madame Seacadi was perched ON trap
eze. She refused to desist and four burly
policemen tugged at the ropes, but birdie
would not come off until the whole audi
ence was forcibly elected.
The legislature, which is in session, was
unanimous today in expressing it's con-
demnation of last nights proceedings,
and a bill was introduced to abolish the
obnoxious law. The police are still
guarding the premises and the dean has
not ventured out for fear of violence.

A BANK FAILURE.
The Capital National Bank at Lincoln,
Neb., Closes Its Doors.
Heavy Defalcation Said to Be the Cause
The State Caughu for Good
Round Sum.

LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 23.-The startling
announcement of the failure of the Cap
ital National bank was made shortly after
IL o'clock last night, and with it came
the statement that the state treasurer was
caught in the crash to the extent of
$3.50, 600. The deposits amount to $3.50 900
and of that amount betw zen $175, OO0 and
$3.50, 900 are state funds. The capital stock
was $3.50, 600, all paid up. Cashier Out
calf stated that the assets would protect
depositors, but there is doubt expressed
as to the correctness of the statement.
No expression of the exact amount of
the state funds on deposit can be obtained.
1t is stated that Bartley' S bond for So, 100,
COO is $500, 900 more than the law required,
and his bondsmen include nearly all the
banks in Lincoln, two at Fremont, one
at Columbus and the Globe Loan and
Trust company of Omaha. The affairs of
the bank have been in bad shape for
some time.
The failure was the sole topic of CONVEX
sation. Hundreds of people surrounded
the bank all morning, but the doors re-
manned tightly closed. The bank num-
bers thousands of depositors, maLy of
small means who Will lose $500 to g, 600
each. Their savings were drawn to the
Od1h Wy tIiC pay luCA6 VI y pei CCiAJ. lnICI-
est. A committee OF bankers of the city
were in consultation all night concerning
means to prevent undue excitement and a
run on other institutions. President Nc
Farland, of the First National, said today
he believed the bank would pay ali depos-
itors in full, but that the stockholders
would be compelled to put up large
amount.
The immediate cause of the failure was
the fact that the state treasurer had not
notified the Capitol National that he
should require 800, 900 within week.
Treasurer BARLEY arrived this morning,
and states that in asmuch as the governor,
secretary of state and attorney general
had approved the bond of Moser and Out
calf for 500, 600 under the law, which
went into effect when he took charge of
the states funds, he and his bondsmen
are released from all Liabilities which fall
upon the state.
Bank Examiner Griffiths demanded the
books of the bank this morning. He soon
discovered that something was wrong. A
large sum is missing and the bank officials
could uot account for it. All they could
say was that it had been stolen. The
sum, it is said, will reach $500 600.
Official findings will not be ready for
several days, possibly a week. The direc-
tors held meeting this morning but the
result of their deliberations are not made
public. The president of the bank is out
of the city, but no one doubts he Will re-
turn within day or two.

Bishop PhilIips Brooks.

Boston, Jan. 23.-Bishop Phillips
Brooks died here this morning of heart
failure, brought on by a violent fit of
coughing. He was taken with sore
throat Tuesday, but the malady was not
considered serious till yesterday, when
the physicians discovered symptoms of
diptheria. Another physician was called
in consultation, but the patients condi-
ton did not seem alarming. This morn
ing, however, without warning he had a
sudden fit of coughing and the heart
| ceased to beat. Owing to the contagious
nature OF the disease the funeral will
probably be private.
The death of Bishop Brooks, which
came as shock to multitude of friends
and admirers. has called forth express
sions of deep personal sorrow from cler-
gymen of all denominations and people in
all walks of life, to whom the bishop was
an ideal man and preacher. A meeting
of Congregational ministers this after
noon adopted resolutions highly eulo-
CYSTIC of the deceased bishop, and Joseph
Cook and others present paid eloquent
tributes to the dead preacher. At meet
ing OF Universalist. Baptist and Metho-
dist ministers resolutions were also
adopted.

Died.
The Dead Are Fearfuily Disfgured and
Identification Is Almost
Impossible.
ADDITIONAL DEAD.

j. N. MURRAY, county assessor.
CHARLES HALLER, farmer.
JOSEPH HERMAN, child.
ALTON, His, Jan. 23.-Three more
deaths this morning increased the death
roll OF Saturdays horror to twenty. The
physicians expect more of the injured to
die within a few hours. Every physician
within reach is engaged in the work of
alternating the sufferings of the burned
and blackened victims, but find their
efforts almost unavailing. The wounds
of many are too deep for anything except
death to relieve.
The relatives of the sufferers and dead
from other points are arriving, but the
dead are so fearfully disfgured that it is
next to impossible to identity them. The
coroner is busily engaged in the work of
the inquest. The funerals OF Henry Pen
ming, John Lock, Ed. and William Mil
Ter, John Wilkinson, Charles UT and
Willie Mccarthy, were held today. The
body of 81. Cornelius, a student OF Shurt-
loft college, was shipped to his Iowa home
this morning.
w. E. Richardson, John Burke, Frank
Schulling have surprised the doctors by
their vital tenacity to life, but death for
them is but little way of.
The hospital is like dead house, the
odor of burnt flesh is everywhere. The
doctor in charge savs of all injured in the
hospital that death is certain in all cases.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. % The Ecenino
Bulletin says a rumor is in circulation to
the effect that the Panama canal railroad
has been sold by the Frenchmen who con-
trolled a majority OF the stock to syndi-
cate of English capitalists. There is no

this rumor, as it is supposed to have orig
mated in New York. If it should prove
true it has dou BILE significance. In the

eastern transit across the American

means that the Panama road will be

concern; at least this is the view business
men take of the matter, as the road is
said to be good for a 5 per cent. PROPOSE

Rumor goes to the extent that it was
agreed by the French stockholders
when they parted with their interest to
keep the transaction secret until after the
annual election of directors of the Pam

The accuracy of all this must be learned
at New York, if it can be learned officially
anywhere under the alleged agreements of

to question of ownership, the present

A Conference Regarding the Senatorial
Situation in that State.
In Nebraska Thurston Withdraws and
Chief Justice Maxwell Steps in as
"A Dark Horse-The Outlook
in Wyoming.

BOISE, Ida, JAM Especial. 1.-The
legislature convened today after three
days vacation with many empty seats.
In the senate warm discussion was had
over the adverse report of the committee
on state affairs aud on Neill's two labor
bills. One makes it unlawful for en-
ployers to enter into a contract with en-
ployees STIMULATING that the latter shall
not belong to labor organizations and the
other providing heavy penalty for en-
ployers who force men to board and trade
at the formers dictation. The commit
tee report on the former bill was adopted
and it was finally agreed 20 allow sub
stitute for the other to be presented to-
morrow. Mr.. Suydam's house bill fix
ing sixteen years as the age of consent
was killed. Mr.. Stewart OF Ada intro
duced a bill attaching Canyon county to
the Third judicial district.
In the house a quiet time was had.
There was no decisive action on any
measure owing to the large number of
absentees. Mr.. Hopper of Latah intro
duced two bills, one providing for the
loaning OF the state funds to the bank
offering the highest rate of interest and
the other increasing the salary of the
state treasurer from s., 600 to g, 500.
Mr.. Helm of Shoshone also introduced
two bills, one providing for the location
of a school Of mines at Osborn and the
other for the protection of game.
Mr.. Suydam of Lemhi introduced q
bill providing that the secretary of state
be insurance commissioner and requiring
each insurance company doing business
in the state to have five resident directors
and deposit bond of SIS, 600. All COM
panies organized outside of the state must
have paid up capital of at least 500 ,00C
and local companies SIS, 900 capital. The
act does not apply to benevolent societies
having insurance departments. All COM
panies are required to obtain an annual
license from the secretary of state.
A bitter fight viii be waged against
this measure. A strong lobby of north
Idaho men are in the city, who want the
school OF mines located at Cpur d. Alene
City James Monaghan, one of the
wealthiest men in the state, is among
others present. A bill will be introduced
in few days to equally divide Kootenai
country, the matter of the county seat to
be left with the voters.
The work of convicts in the quarries at
the penitentiary has been stopped owing
to the failure of the senate to concur IN
the house appropriation of $4,000 to buy
tools, etc. The bill has been in the hands
of the committee fourteen days, signify
ing its death.
