Central wreck occurred at $40 A. NJ. The
second section of the Oswego special ran
into the rear end Of the head section.
Inside of % minutes six dead bodies
were taken ont and the work had only
began. The accident occurred because of
misplaced switch. The number of dead
Is placed 10y some at -, and they claim
the list of injured will reach nj least 80.
The dead are Mrs Lloyd Wood
bury, of Bath, y. Y: James Woodbury.,
Bath, y. y; Nrs. Woodhury's 5 father
in-law; Mrs. Beardslee, Canton, Pa.
The injured are: Mrs. Searle, Elmira,
y. y, badly injured about head; Ed
ward Fay, Mrs g. W Fay, Miss Laura
Fay, all of EImira, y. y, all badly in

There are SIX dead at Webb X Crandall' 5

So eminent an authority as Judge
Cooley says that the situation IN the
senate is a revolution Under the SEN
ate rules we no longer have majority
government We have only such gov
ernment as miuorities may choose to
permit. This is not the government
contemplated by the constitution. 1t Is
the exact reverse of all that the consti-
tuition intends, remarks the New York
World
The practical results of this new sys-
tenn are obvious. If determined min
ority can forbid vote on the silver re-
peal bill, similar minority can forbid
legislation upon any and every other
subject. 1t is certain that this will be
done in every case in which the opposi-
ton is strenuous.
Now that such use of the Senate rules
is accepted as legitimate the senate bro
ken down as a legislative body. 1t has
become "A mere debating society-worse
than that, body where Drawn counts
for more than brains and talk obstructs
action 1t has no power to act except
upon measures to which there is no
stroug opposition.
The House bill for the repeal of the
Federal Election laws will presently
come before the senate. Every member
of the Democratic majority desires to
pass it. But it cannot be passed without
a vote, and the majority need never allow
a vote to be had upon it while the pres
ent system endures.
The same thing is true of the coming
tariff bill and of every other measure
which this Congress may try to enact by
way of writing Democratic principles and
polices into the law.
These Democratic Senators who have
put this veto power into the hands of
there adversaries by alliance with the
mining camp and sage brush Republi-
cans will hardly contemplate their work
with complacency when its full effects
appear.

Executive CommIssoner Farquhar' :
plan of giving the building To the

emy is not so favorably thought of by
several members of the commission who
have been making a quiet investigation
on their own account. One of them
has written to a well-known state Official
that the club has no assets whatever
except subscription paper, and that there
Is not even "A corporation. He states
that the commission would willingly do

JUST how much of this county, says the
are pretending to own can not be def
nitely settled yet; they still appear to
have the power of indefinitely expanding
their hold upon the public. Not only
did Flory step forward at the last minute,
and take the treasurership nomination
for himself, thrusting aside other men
who had been before made to stand back
for ring favorites, but his lieutenants are
now promising next years offices.
As means of ''taffying" the friends
of David Coulter, who were very sore
over Mr.. Coulter's being thrust aside to
make way for Flory, at the Republican
convention. the ''leaderS' are telling
them that they-the Barker ring-will
make Mr.. Coulter sheriff next year.
This might work pretty well, except for
the fact that the friends of Capt. Thomas
Davis claim that the shrievalty plum has
been promised to their favorite.
Of course the Barker people own the
whole string of offices; they can promise
nominations a year ahead, and make
them, too. The rank and file-the vO-
ters-of the Republican party have
nothing to say; they are not consulted
until the Barker gang have fixed things
up.
But we shall see; there are a great
! many Republican voters who are getting
tired of the Barker yoke. Their voice
will be heard in November.

CONGRESS on Monday afternoon, by a
vote of l67 to 9, passed the McCreary
Chinese bill with amendments. The bill
ms passed extends the provisions of the
Geary law six months, defines Chinese
laborers and Chinese merchants, makes
mandatory Photographic identification,
requires marshals to carry out orders
for deportation, jailing Chinese without
bail pending the execution of deportation
writs, and excludes Cinnamon convicted
OF felony from permission to register
Mr.. Geary declare sthat the bill as pass
sed is perfectly satisfactory to the coast
and if enforced at the expiration of the
time limit will settle the Chinese problem
Those who departed will not be able to
transfer their registration certificates,
and in course of time all will disappear
from these shores. The administration
is also satisfied with the bill, so chair
man McCreary, of the foreign affairs
committee, AYERS.

AT the closing of the session of the
state hoard of agriculture in Kittanning,
on Thursday afternoon, Governor Pat
tison was requested to give his views on
the question of taxation. He began by
saying that the only way to decrease
taxes is to decrease expenditures. He
said the revenue laws of this state are
the most complicated work imaginable,
and no lawyer outside of Dauphin coun-
ty pretends to be able to construe them
correctly. They are a special study. As
a remedy he advised the abolishment of
the whole system and the adoption, in
stead, of the plans of the larger munich
palities for raising finances. His scheme
Is that the auditor general and legislature
every two years, in January, fix rate
on the basis of the amount taxable, CON
sisting of the paidup capital of corpora
tions, collateral inheritance tax and in
come from fees. The auditor is to SUBJ
NIT his budget to the legislature and it
shall fix the millage. In this way the
necessary amount of tax, and only that,
can be raised yearly. Another result
would be that corporations would lobby
for economical legislation rather than
for extravaganza.

Prominent Physician Suicides.

GREENsBURG, Pa, Oct. I2-Shortly

Irwin were startled upon learning that
DIR. John c. Taylor, one of the Oldest
and most prominent physicians, had
comitted suicide at his home 10y shooting
himself in the head, death resulting a few
minutes later. DIR. Taylor during the
day had been in an unuSally cheerful
mood, spent the evening with his
friends about town, and when it was
learned that he had gone to his room
and deliberatly killed himself they could
not at first believe it. Members of the
family who heard the report of the pistol
ran into the room and found him lying
on the floor, the smoking weapon in his
hand. The cause of the tragedy is not
known. DIR. Taylor was about - years
old and leaves wife and family. Two
of his children, William and Charles,
are physicians, practicing in Irwin.
The doctor was quite wealthy and
was owner and manager of the Irwin
opera house.

RETURNS of the condition of the ma
tional banks on October received by
the Comptroller of currency indicate a
marked increase in reserve over the
sums so held on July II last. The large
additions to the currency and the flood
of gold imports within the last three
months have given desired stability TO
our financial institutions; which, but for
the lack of confidence caused by Con-
gressional inaction, would speedily be re
flected in every branch of industrial and

passengers in one of the day coaches on
the Chicago and Erie Road were chloro-

SOME scientist has figured out that
wheat from the time it is threshed will
shrink two quarts to the bushel or per
cent. in six months, even under the
most favorable circumstances. Hence
1t follows that "a cents per bushel when
it is first threshed in August is as good
as 81 the following February. Corn
shrinks much more from the time it is
husked. 100 bushels of ears from the
field in November being reduced to
about 50. So 40 cents per bdshel for corn
as it comes from the field is as good as
30 cents the next March. Potatoes
shrink so much that between October
and next spring the loss to the owner
who holds them is nearly 20 per cent.

The Government report on bread,
stuffs, has at last made its appear
ance. The returns indicate yield of
about 1l3 bushels 10 the acre which is
II bushels per acre below the figures of
1892. The falling off is attributed chief
ly to drouth and backward weather in
many states. The quality of the East,
South and Pacific states is up to the
average, but in the territory from which
the commercial supplies are obtained it
is below this point. With big surplus
on hand last fall, it was argued that
there would have been more money in
a smaller crop, as the great supply had
a tendency to keep prices down. The
verdict of the producers on the yield of
1898 has not been received yet but un-
less Prof. Totten's millennium asserts
itself very soon, it will likely reverse
fhe opihious of last year.
