Had Lots of Confusion.

Both houses were in session and at work
at the same time for awhile yesterday aft
ernoon and a scene of confusion equal TO
the stormy hours at the opening of the ses-
sion resulted. Both speakers pounded the
desk for order and both reading clerks
tried to shout each other down in calling
the roll, the members yelling at the top of
their voices in responding. The clerks kept
pace with each other in calling the rolls
and frequently called the name of some
men simultaneously. The Republicans
had no business before the house, but they
kept up a fire of motions and demands for
roll call apparently to hinder the progress
of business on the other side. 1t was
good natured but ridiculous test of lungs,
and finally the clerks desisted from sheer
exhaustion

PITTsBURG, Feb. Sat the opening of
the Jack Clifford trial yesterday p. II. Nc
Elroy. vice president of the .Amalgamated
association, was put on the stand as an adj
ditional alibi witness. He said he went to
Homestead on the afternoon of July 9, and
saw Clifford in Amalgamated hall at
o'clock. Defendant Jack Clifford said he
was engaged as police officer from July 1
to July 6 for the borough of Homestead;
that he had not been near the Carnegie
plant from a. m. till noon on July 9. This
ended the testimony. and the defense rested
its case.
Human Testimony Very "Onsartin.'
There probably has never been ease
where the old adage Seeing is believing" "
received blacker eye than in this one.
For the prosecution Clifford was positively
identified by several witnesses as having
been present and active in the attack on
the boats from the first 1t was also sworn
that he prepared and used dynamite in the
attack, and in fact that he was peculiarly
malignant in his action against the Pink
ertons on the day of the riot. Each side
was allowed two hours to address the
iury.

THE SITUATION IN KANSAS.
A Populist Who Is Getting Tired of the
Comedy.

A Populist Who Is Getting Tired of the
Comedy.
TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. S.-Representative
Campbell, of Stafford, a member who Mon
day caused the Pdpulist leaders much
trouble by his refusal to submit to caucus
dictation, announces that if it is possible
to get test OF the house muddle in the
supreme court before the close of the ses-
sion he will bring it about The leaders
are opposed to this, but there is a growing
disposition among the members to reach an
early settlement, so that the entire session
may not be wasted. The obstructionists
have managed to send the senate legislative
appropriation bill back to that body loaded
with amendments, but it will be returned
to the house as soon as the rules of the
senate permit.
Objections to the Republican House.
If the Populists should surrender-on a
neworganzation-all the members to whom
they have given seats on contests they
would be left out, and it is probable that
they would demand that the two members
the Republicans have taken in on contests
be dropped. Campbell, however, insists that
the Republican house was not legally or
ganized, although it did originally have
sixty-three members, and that, therefore
in case of a settlement there should be a
new deal all around.

The Poads of the rench.

Thorough construction, vigiiant
watching and prompt repair are the
secrets Of French success with roads.
They are of three kinds national, de-
partment and township. The general
rule is rural districts is to sacrifice the
straight line in order to follow the
valleys as much as possible, rising by
gentle grades where this is required.
Side drainage is provided for, and the
road of course is highest in the middle,
the sides sloping transversely about an
inch to the yard. Macadamizing is the
rule of construction, except for the
towns, and the layer Of broken stones is
usually placed directly on the beaten
ground, though sometimes layer Of
sand or stones intervenes to help the
drainage.
To the removal of old material, worn
and wasted by use, the French give
great attention After their roads are
carefully rolled by the compressor,
which consists of one or two heavy
cylinders drawn by horses or propelled
by steam. For nearly half cen
tury the French engineers have gener-
ally used on roadways built for heavy
traffic basaltic rock where it can be
had near by. It's cost is about 81 800 for
the amount used on a mile of road,
and Mr.. Loomis says that it is not on
" far better but about so per cent.
cheaper than the crushed granite
formerly SO much employed.

NHsethB tht
WASHINGTON, June 27.-The president,
Secretary Carlisle and the financial officers
of the government generally received their
first authentic news of the startling action
OF the government Of India in suspending
silver coinage through the press dispatches.
Mr.. Carlisle immediately went over to the
White House, and for nearly two hours
discussed the bearings of this action with
the president without reaching any posi-
tive conclusion as to a line of action to be
adopted. The conference was renewed at
Woody, the presidents suburban retreat,
later in the evening, and was protracted
until far in the night.
The circumstances are regarded as too
serious to permit of any authentic ex-
preston of opinion Us to the future policy
OF the United States until all the facts are
fully digested. 1t can be stated, however,
with absolute confidence that the action
of the Indian government in closing the
mints to the free coinage of silver is re-
garded by the United States as doing
away with the necessity for reconvening
the international monetary conference,
which was to have met again in Brussels
this fall 1t is not believed that this ac-
tion was taken without express orders
from the English government, which has
general supervision and control over In
dian affairs.
Information obtained from the treasury
department shows that the worlds pro-
duct of silver during the last fiscal year
was l52,0O0,0O0 ounces of which the United
States purchased 81, 600. 900 ounces outside
of the silver used in the arts which is es-
timated at about 7,000, 900 ounces The
consumption by India was 5000, 600
ounces, which was coined This makes
the United States and India combined use
106, 6,0O0, 900 ounces of silver purchased last
year. leaving 46, 00O, 600 ounces of silver for
use in the arts in other countries of the
world.
The highest price ever attained by silver
in the United States was at the time of
the passage of the Bland silver bill, Feb,
2S, 1873 when the price was $lo2 per
ounce. The silver dollar was then worth
ninety-three cents. At no period since
then has the silver dollar been worth so
much. When the Sherman act went into
effect August, 1890, there was a spurt in
the price of silver, and it went up to 81. 81
per ounce. In the time between the pass
age of the Bland law In 1873 and the pass
age of the Sherman law in 1899 silver went
to ninety two cents per ounce, which was
maximum price during that period Since
August, 1870, the price has gradually de-
clined, with fluctuations, until yesterday,
when it reached the lowest point on record.
AT today's price of seventy nine cents per
fine ounce the silver dollar is worth B0IS
cents as bullion.
