are hung beautiful pictures of all the

Cinderella and other heroes and heroines
of chid-lore fame.
In the Manufactures and Liberal Arts
building are the cunningest sets Of doll
dishes, glassware and vases. Near by
is the Italian booth, where are miniature
cities of little boys and girls in white
marble and big bronze statues of tigers,
lions and allisators. The French booth
is alive with little people of all nations
and dogs and deer all made of bronze
and marble.

Telegraph and Telephone Wires Down

Washington, Oct. 13-The West In
dia cyclone and storm from the north
west joined issues this morning east
and west, and since then telegraphic
communication has been practically at
a standstill After sweeping over the
Florida peninsula yesterday, the cy-
clone made it's way north through
Georgia, North Carolina and the Vir-
ginias and met the storm from the
west somewhere in Pennsylvania or
Ohio, when both were diffused over a
wide area, playing havoc with all
means of wire communication. An at
tempt was made to work the Associated
Press circuits by dividing them into
small sections and 'relaying," but it
was even then found almost impossi-
bic to carry the important news Of the
day.
At 7 o'clock the Western Union COM
pany reported all their wires between
Washington and Harrisburg and New
York down and communication be-
tween Pittsburg and New York routes
almost useless. At the Postal tele-
graph Office the same situation obtain
ed, their Chicago wires be-
ing down and New York wires being
so slow as to be of no value whatever.
AT the. present writing there is one
Associated Press wire to New York,

other circuit has been started south to
reach Memphis from Chattanooga, and
thence north and south to New Or

a JAIL SET ON FIRE.
The Electric Light Works Also Burned at
Baltimore

Baltimore, Nd, Oct, 13.-In various
sections of the city houses were IN
rooted and trees blown down. The
wind and rain swelled the water in
the harbor so that the New York
trains on the Baltimore & Ohio were
unable to cross at Locust Point.
From Annapolis and other sections
in southern Maryland come reports of
damage by storm
AT 10 o'clock tonight, while the wind
was blowing a gale. the electric light
works took fire and burned As these
supply the city and nearly all the
stores and other buildings in the city
with light, the city is plunged in par
tial darkness. At the Holiday street
theatre a panic was only averted by
the presence of mind of the attach
es.
Sparks from the Brush electric light
works set fire to the city jail. The
prisoners were hurriedly collected and
marched into the yard. Quite a num-
Der, however, we're overcome by the
smoke and dragged out
AT midnight the Jail was completely
destroyed. A Gordon of police was
formed about the Jail, while the doc
tors worked on the prisoners. SEVENTH
five were taken to the city hospital
None of them are believed to be fatal
ly injured. The southern part of the
city is flooded, and the water at the
docks is even with the surface of the
streets.

IN THE SENATE.
An Attempt to Hold an Albright Session
a Failure

Washington, Oct. 13.-Vest gave no.
tice of an amendment in the nature
of a substitute for the repeal bill.
After repeating the purchasing clause
of the Sherman act, it authorizes the
issue of coin certificates for the un-
coined bullion, consisting of seignior-
age on silver heretofore purchased;
provides for the coinage of American
silver deposited by others at rate of
three millions per month, up to eight
hundred millions; this coinage to be
fairly proportional among the silver
producing states and territories. The
holders of standard silver dollars may
have them exchanged for certificates.
Authority is given to the secretary of
the treasury to refuse payment in
gold on any obligation of the United
States when he is satisfied that gold
is applied for for expectation A joint
committee of the two houses is to ex-
anime into the financial and monetary
condition of the government and the
people of the United States. The 10
per cent. tax on the state bank circu-
lation is to be removed.
The silver repeal bill was then taken
up and Stewart, of Nevada, took the
u.
he left off at o'clock this morning.
Senator Henderson, of Nevade Of
fered a resolution that the committee
on Pacific railroads be instructed to
inquire into the receivership of the
Union Pacific railroad and what steps
were necessary to protect the interest
and secure the Indebtedness to the
United States government.
Brice, chairman of the committee on
Pacific railroads committee, pointed
out the necessity that receivers GER
tificates be not issued and have pref
erence over the government liens on
the property, supplemental to the ap-
preparations required to employ coun-
sci in the matter. Consideration of the.
resolution was postponed and Stewart
resumed. his speech, continuing until
8 o'clock when he was succeeded by
PETER.
The galleries at this time are prac-
tically deserted.
The president remains firm for I'M
conditional repeal and Voorhees, will
hold out as long as he can keep a quo
rum.
The failure of the thirty-eight hour
session has rather discouraged the re-
peal senators. Meanwhile the efforts of
the compromisers goes on
The basis seems to be Harris amend
ment, but there is a wide difference of
opinion as to whether the bond pro-
vision should be added.
White, of Louisiana, made a. fiery
speech, in which he declared the Sen
ate had made itself a subject of con-
tempt and contumely. He denounced
the action of Dubois, and even went
SO far as to demand that such action
might warrant expulsion.

to vote and make quorum on the

Proposition Is Agreed Upon.

At the Cabinet Meeting a Compromise
Proposition Is Agreed Upon.
Washington. Oct. 1S.-At a cabinet
meeting today, after a complete dis
cussion of all phases of the Senate sit
uation, a compromise proposition was
agreed on to be offered by one of the
repeal senators. 1t includes, as did the
Harris amendment, a provision for the
coinage of silver seignorage in the
treasury, amounting to $53 100000 and
thereafter the purchase of 100000
ounces a month until 90,000,000 ounces
have been purchased. This will carry

ton of Mr.. CS4Eeland's term, a condi-
ton the silver men insist upon, and re-

Of seignorage. of eighteen months of
further purchase of bullion, besides
making the bullion so coined available
as treasury assets. To meet the de-
mand of the east, a proposition for the
issue of a hundred million dollars of
per cent bonds is included. There is
still question whether the proposition
for the repeal of the tax on state banks
and the redemption of notes of all clas-
SeS below SIS shall be added.
