IN SENATE AND HOUSE.
Eenator Vest Charges Senator Chandler
with inconsistency.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-The session of
the senate yesterday was occupied in tho
consideration of the sundry civil appro-
priation bill The various amendments
recommended by the committee on ap-
preparations to reduce the amounts in.
serted by the house for some of the great
internal improvements were discussed and
voted down. During the discussion Mr..
Vest (Mo.) arraigned Republican states
men for course of policy which had re-
suited in dissipating the treasury surplus
of a hundred million dollars four years
ago, and In bringing the treasury to con-
dition which would, in the case of a cor
poration or individual, result in an ap-
plication for receiver. The proposed an
nexation of the Hawaiian islands came in
for a large share of Mr.. Vests comments
and criticism. He ridiculed the incon-
sistency of Mr.. Chandler for proposing the
unecnstitutonal annexation of these ISL
ands-kanakas, Chinese, lepers and all
Immediately after proposing legislation
for the exclusion of European immigrants
and Asiatic cholera An amendment in
volving the continuance of the Office Of
supervisor of elections gave rise to long
and heated political discussion.
The session of the house was almost en-
tireiy devoted to the consideration Of the
pension appropriation bill. The new legis-
lation proposed by the committee on ap-
preparations was-as far as it was material
ruled in order by the chairman, Mr.. Will
son (W. Va,). Ills decisions were sus-
tained, but the amendi1Hplts were rejected.
The feature of the day was a personal col
1ision between Turpin (Ala.) and Waugh
Qnd.), which, but for the bodily interven-
tion of friends, might have resulted Sc
riously, but as it turned out any injuries
that were received were received by the
peacemakers

MITCHELL MEANS BUSINESS.
Tho English Pn9ilist Will Cover Cor.
bett,a Daposit foI a y7;1bt

New YORK, Feb l7-Charlie Mitchell,
the English heavyweight pngilst, was de-
talned by Inspector Wanser when the
steamer Majestic arrived yesterday on the
ground that he was an ex-cOnyict. Subse-
quently he was taken before Judge An
drews of the supreme court, who at once
discharged him. AS he had been sentenced
10 two months for a simple assault he
could not be considered all habitual Grim
inal
After the court proceedings Mitchell
and his party went over to the office of
George Dickinson, who holds Corhett's
$4,000 deposit lilo was accompanied by
'Squireh Abingdon and solicitor Bernard
Abrahams lie had conference with
Corbett's manager, Brady, and agreed to
meet him again at DiGkinson's offica at
O'Clock this afternoon. This delay in GOV
ering Corbett's deposit OF $4,000 was made
necessary by reason of Miteheli's detention
by the immigration commissioners
The confc crcncs between Mitchell and
Brady was brief and TO the point. Brady
informed Mitchell that he had deposited
SO 600 with Dickinson in behalf of Corhett,
and Mitchell replied that 1t would he cover
ed fast enough. that on account of the court
proceedings he had not had time To con-
vert English notes into American money,
but be would be prepared to pat up the
money at the hour named.
II Is the general opinion among sporting
men that Mitchell means business,

HARRISBURG, Feb. 1T.-In the senate yes
terday Mr. Markley's bill to make Satur-
day legal haif holiday during the entire
year was favorably reported also bill to
incorporate smoked meat firms. Among
the bills introduced were: Appropriating

joining boroughs to consolidate; to repeal

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 17.-If John Brown
tould have spent yesterday in Topeka he
would have been immensely interested.
However, IL the former president of the
'sSuntlower" state, whose soul is marching
ON, had been here there might have been
more of real war and less bluffing. 1t was
day of waiting and resting on arms The
militia guarded the capitol grounds, the
deputy sergeants-atar stood behind
kbarrtcades and guarded the capitol and
|. Ehe hall of the house. and the deputy
Bheriffs overran the whole town. Guns
were everywhere-stacked up in the cor
ridors OF hotels, in the hands of militia
men, and on the shoulders of men who
had poured in from every section of the
state. There wasno fighting, not even IA
street fight. Men felt the responsibility of
the hour, and no one was anxious to do
hnything that would start the battle.
The Republicans have all the best of the
htuation. The Populsts realize that they
eannot depend upon the militia to attack
the hall, and they are afraid to attempt to
do anything with thsss companies of pro
6eional troops. Lewelling has sued for
pc, or done what amounts to the same
hg, in asking the Republicans to sub
1t compromise proposition The propo-
tion, which is extremely favorable to the
fpublicans, has been submitted to the
vernon and he has taken it under com-
alteration. Until he answers 1t things
will remain in statu quo, with the Rcpub-
licans in possession of the hall The
supreme court may act today and put an
and to the struggle
The Popuiists met last night, hut did
nothing Of any consequence except to
wrangle bitterly among themselves over
the situation. They are handicapped by
the fact that twenty of their members are
VERY weak kneed and are ready to join the
Republican house at the first opportunity.
Should the supreme court decide in favor
Of the Republican house these twenty
members will undoubtedly break away
from the Populist house.

PENNSYLVANIA BUILDING.
t Will be Dedicated to Worlds Fair
Purposes on April 80.

HARRISBURG, Feb. 17.-There was a
breezy and exciting session of the execu-
tive committee of the Worlds fair board
yesterday. To ask or not to ask the legis-
lature for an additional appropriation was
the question. 1t was discussed in all its
phases, and the sentiment was evidently in
favor OF more money, Notwithstanding the
opposition of Governor Pattison and Gem
eral Goblin, who were earnestly against
adding to the 100000 originally appro-
priuted The governor introduced reso-
luton to the effect that no additional ap-
preparation is necessary but it was de-
feated
Lieutenant Governor Watres was par
ticularly emphatic in his remarks concern
ing the danger of serious blunder In with
holding money at the risk of shaming the
people of great state. There was no de-
mand that the board should do anything
of this kind. Other gentlemen spoke in
the same vein. Executive Commission
Farquhar stated that 100000 additional
could be used to advantage, rs there was
less than 10000 for r'dedicatory ceremonies
and maintenance of the state building for
nine months.
There were frequent exciting scenes dur
ing the meeting, and some things said that
will cause i'll feeling hereafter General
Goblin riled the executive commissioner by
charging that he had not been fair with
the committe in his estimates. There was
decidedly more talk than business Gov
ernor Pattison was particularly severe
when Professor Reber, head of the depart
ment of mines and mining, was charged
with extravaganza and excessive bills An
appropriation of 50, 900 was made for live
stock exhibit. Toward the close of the
stormy meeting it was decided to dedicate
the state building at l2 o'clock noon, Sat
urday, April 20, 1893. The following pro-
gram was arranged:
Music, orchestra; prayer; vocal music;
presentation OF building by A. B Farqu-
har, executive commissioner; acceptance
and address by Governor Pattison; music,
orchestra; dedicatory address by Chief
Justice Paxson; vocal music; address by
Colonel A. X Mcclure; informal remarks
by Lieutenant Governor Watres, President
Pro TEN. Goblin and Speaker Thompson;
music, orchestra; reception by the COVER

'oNDoN, Feb. 17.-In tho house of com.
,s yesterday Sir Thomas Esinonde,
-Parnellite, called the attention OF tho
te to speech made by Niscount Vol
Liberal-Unionist. The speech was
fyered In St. James Hall, and during
course Vi.count Wolmer declared that
aIrish members of parliament subsistpd
contributions made by he Gladstonian
GUS Sir Thomas objected to such u
s.afement being made
iscount Wolmer a nitted TINT he had
ie too far In his speech, but he said he
eyed he was justified In saying that
te association further.nR Irish home
le supported the needy Irish members OF
The house.
The speaker said that he was unable to
interfere In the matter. as a statement to
which objection was offered had been mada
outside the house.
Mr.. Sexton stated that The Times had
used the assertions OF Viscount Wolmer
as facts, and had seized the chance to heap
lying calnmnies upon the Irish members.
He declared that no Nationalist member
was ever indebted a penny to either the
Liberal fund or the generosity OF rich
partisan.
The speaker suggested to Count Wolmer
onat uHless nS WAS prepared with proof OF
his statement he should apologize Wis.
count Wolmer curtly expressed regret for
making the statement, and rendered his
kspology therefor.
Mr. Sexton then declared that the editor
t,f The Times should be compelled to apollo
ei1e al the bar of the house.
! AT this point Mr. Gladstone arose and
said that he sympathi1ed with the feelings
A2f the Irish members. The publication of
he article In question by The Times, IN
tich corruption was distinctly charged,
estituted a breach Of privilege.
Nght Hon. A. J. Balfonr also took part
