HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.


Consideration of the Postoffice Appropri-
alton Bill Resumed.
WASHINGTON, April 11.--There was a
question Tuesday when the house met
as to the order of business. An attempt
was made to consider senate amend
ments to the bridge bill, when Mr..
Reed urged that the house must pro-
coed to vote on the motion to discharge
the warrants issued to the sergeant. at
arms, under resolution Of March 10, for
the absentees. The motion came over
from last Saturday.
Mr.. Reed contended that the house
presented an unseemly spectacle as
members were under threat of arrest
and that the report of the sergeant-at-
arms should be disposed of as matter
of privilege affecting its members
Finally, by agreement, it was decided
to allow the whole subject to go over
until today.
Bills were passed for the protection of
game in the Yellowstone park and for
the punishment of crime in the park by
the extension of the laws and jurisdic-
ton of the Wyoming United States
district to its territory; to grant chief
justice in territories power to appoint
commissioners to take proof of land
cases. The house then went into COM
mittee of the whole and resumed con-
sideration of the postoffice appropria-

One Man Crushed to Death and Another
Fatally Injured.
CHICAGO, April Crank Kennedy
was crushed to death and Frederick
Koenig perhaps fatally injured beneath
an elevator in the Columbus Cloak
'company's store Sunday morning. The
men were making some repairs to the
elevator. They had been working half
an hour, when they were startled by
seeing the elevator cable in motion.
They looked up and saw the cage COM
ing down upon them. Before they
could move the cage had cut off all
means of escape. Both Kennedy and
Koenig shouted for help and then both
were crushed by the heavy cage which
settled down upon them.
The mems cries were heard by other
men in the building, who ran to their
rescue. The heavy elevator was quick
ly raised from the bodies of the un-
fortunate men. Kennedy was dead
and Koenig unconscious. Koenig was
terribly crushed about the breast.
shoulders and legs, and is in precar-
ious condition. The attending ply
sicians have hopes, however, of his re-
covery. How the elevator started or
its downward course is unknown, as
there was no one but the unfortunate
men about the shaft. Both were
married.

pended or cancelled since March A,

The resolution of Senator Allen to
limit general debate on the tariff to
June A and to take the final vote on the

amendment that general debate should
cease on Nov. %, which gave rise to
some ironical comments from the Demo
