But Isn't Likely to Get 1t of the
Northern Pacific.
SEATTLE. WASH. April 1.-The
United States circuit court here heard
au application for allowance and issu-
ance Of receivers preferential certifi-
Gates by receivers of the Seattle, Lake
Shore u Eastern railway. amounting to
over S1,0O0, 900, for money paid out and
advanced by the former for the preser-
vation and protection of the latter's
property, and which was claimed to be
entitled to preference over the first
mortgage bonds of the company aggre-
eating $685. OOO The Union Trust
Company of New York, being trustee
for the holders of said bonds, inter-
yened and opposed the allowance of
receivers certificates. claiming, in sub
stance, that the Northern Pacific COM
pany was the owner of a majority of
the stock in the latter company, and at
the time OF such payments was in con-
trol and possession and operating the
Lake Shore road. kept its books, in
Cured all Its liabilities. and that all pay
ments made were voluntary on its own
account and i'll payment OF its own Oh.
legations. and in purSuan ce of certain
contracts made between the said COM
panies set forth in the answer. The
Northern Pacific company demurred to
the answer of the Union Trust company
as being insufficient to prevent the al
lowailce of said receivers receipts, but
the court overruled the demurrer and
by its decision practically eliminated
altogether about $500, 600 from the case,
and allowing the petitioner thirty
days to amend its petition as to the bal
ance of the claims. The court, in its
decision, intimated very strongly that
much stronger equities than those al
ready shown had to be exhibited to
Justify the court giving any relief what

GOV. TILLMAN TALKS.
Intends to Enforce Order at Oar.
lington and Florence.

COLUMBIA, S. c.. April 1.-The Asso.
clated Press representative had a
| lengthy interview with Gov. Tillman at
the executive mansion this afternoon.
The governor granted the req uested in
terview without hesitation. and spoke
freely about the situation. There were
some indications of nervousness in his
manner, but altogether he was as col.
lected as could be expected under the
circumstances. The governor slated
that, in his opinion. the worst of the
danger was over. He said that, mas
much as Darlington and Florence were
in state of insurrection. he felt 1t his
duty to exert himself to the utmost to
uphold the dignity and preserve the
peace of the state. AT the time of the
interview the 800 militiamen had lust
left Oh special train for Darlington.
In view of the number of companies
which had refused to respond to his
call, he was greatly gratified at having
finally placed the troops Ell route to the
scene of the trouble.
''But will they shoot?" was asked.
"Will they shoot?" exclaimed the gov,
elnOr with emphasis. "Well, you ought
to have heard them cheer when | told
them to shoot"
When asked how soon he expected to
restore civil law, he said he could not
tell. There was much at stake. Oar.
lington and the community were in in
surrectIon, defying the authority of the
state, and the insurrectionistS must be
put down. The property OF the state
(Eeaning the dlspensaries) had been de-
stroyed. The guilty parties must be
discovered and brought 10 Justice The
diSpenSarieS' cOnstableS we're being pur-
sued, and were in immiD ent danger of
losing their lives. He would not per
init them to be bounded down and shot
like dogs. Pending developments in
these matters he would keep the militia
under arms.
A few minutes previous to this inter-
view IL was reported that the censorship
of telegraphs had been Withdrawn. He
was questioned as to the accuracy of the
rumor, and denied it very emphaticaI!y.
He said he did not wish to have any
thing sent out which would infiame the
passions OF the people, and. for that
reason, and with view of securing ac-
curate reports, he would continue the
censorship.
Now. l will play editor for you fell
lows" said the governor, with a laugh.
just WrlCe OUT your reports, Drlng
them to me and will look over them.
If they are not sensational or incen.
diary, will let them go.''
He spoke confidently of the strength
of his sympathizers.
IL can assemble from 1000 to 1,5Oo
men here to support me,' he said.
why, have received kilograms fro m
all over the state offering assistance,
and l can get as many as l can furnis h

Gov. Tillman spoke feelingly of the
disbandlng of the Governors Guards.

| WASHINGTON. April 1.-If Mr. Boen,
of the Seventh Minnesota district, con-
| tinues to experiment he is liable to dis
place the foundations of the govern
| ment in some of his restless and
thoughtless efforts at reform. HIS
latest is bill to reduce salarieS-a
sweeping reduction of 25 per cent on
everything over $1,000 per annum and
not exceeding 5000, 33115 per cent on
all over $1,000 and under $4,000, and a
80 per cent slash at the president of the
United States, who draws over $4,000
,, Mr.. Boen was asked if he realized
that the passage of this bill would
reduce the salaries of members of con
gress. You bet your boots do!'' was
the bucolic reply. ''Them'S the fellers
I'm after. Why, don't you know that
when congressional salaries were fixed
you had to pay 81 per bushel for wheat?
Now you can buy it for 40 cents. And
this proposition Of reductions runs
through everything. Now, honest
would you not be willing to serve as
member of congress for So, $50 per an
mum? Well. would. Eli venture the
assertion that ii the salary was knocked
down to $4,000 per annum there is not
man on this floor could be induced to
resign.
.Then, why should Grover Cleve-
land be paid $4,000 for performing less
service than Abraham Lincoln per-
formed for $4,000? l tell you, men
have got to put up with Smaller pay.
Everybody has to get along on smaller
income-especially farmers. and pro-
pose to give congress chance to put
itself on record for real substantial
reform.
.'Do think lit will pass? cannot
tell. Sometimes l really more than
half suspect that congress wants to re-
form expenditures of the public money
everywhere except in the nelghborhood
of the pockets of its own members. Pll
agree to take life Job as congressman
for s., $50 per year, and l'il find 500 men
who are an almighty sight smarter lot
than there is in this house who will be
glad to do the same thing. Why, maxi
ing laws is not near as hard work as
making hay!
Eyes, shall push the bill to the best
of my ability, and let the horns and tail

Block,

ALEXANDRIA, Ind, April 1.-The
new two-story Whiteside block, in
which occurred the explosion last mid
night, by which four men were killed
and three hurt, is total wreck. The
clothing stock was entirely ruined. as
was the barber shop and express office :,
and the total monetary loss will reach
$4,000. There was basement several
,feetin depth under the building, with
no ventilation, and in this cavity the
natural gas accumulated. 1t is thought
to have become ignited through the
FIRE in the stove. After fighting the
flames for hours, the rescuers were able
70 reach the bodies of the dead men,
and the four blackened corpses, burned
beyond recognition, were removed from
the charred timbers and taken to their
homes.

ADDRESSED BY A PRIEST.
Novel Experience for the Students
OF Harvard.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, April 1.-The first
regular sermon ever given in Harvard
university by a Catholic priest was de-
livered in Appleton chapel tonight.
Father Peter j. O'Callahan delivered
most powerful and impressive sermon
before crowded congregation. The
occasion was memorable one,
being the first really cordial recog-
milton Harvard has ever given Roman
Catholic priest, though there have been
informal addresses before this. Presl-
dent Charles w. Eliot, all the faculty,
hundreds of Harvard students, besides
many outsiders, filled the chapel to
overfiowing. Father O'Callahan grad
uated from Harvard in the class of 'SS.
He is now member of the Paulist Or
der. and we'll known in New York. His
text was from the ninety-third Psalm,
"Thy testimonies are become exceed
lngly credible" "Rationalism in Faith"
was the subject of the sermon.

Jail by deputy until arrangements for
his escape could be made. The guns of
the Florence Rifles are still ia the pos-
session of the citizens, and no attempt
has thus far been made to recover
them. Even should such an effort be
made by state troops no arms will be
found. as they have been secreted. The
citizens are not disposed to surrender
the advance they have made, but pro-
pose that. being outlawed, they will
proceed to restore law and order them
selves.

WASHINGTON. April 1.-Ofticials OF
the war department state tonight that
they have received no information of
any call from Gov. Tillman, of South
Carolina, for federal troops, and nc
preparations have been made to get any
body of troops in readiness to go to the
scene of the trouble. The officials say
that owing to the peculiar nature of the
disturbance in South Carolina they do
not anticipate any call for troops. In
case troops are sent, they could only
operate to maintain peace and prevent
bloodshed and destruction of property.
They could not even. if sent for by Gov.
Tillman, take any part in assisting the
governors spies in their work.

ONE TINY RAY OF LIGHT
SHOOTS FROM THE TARIFF CORNER
OF THE SENKTE.
DEBATE ON TEsE TARIFF BILL
Will Begin Promptly at 2 O'clock
This Afternoon-Senato Voor-
hees Will Speak First, and
Senators Hill and Mcpherson
Will Also Make Early Speeches
-Lurid Prospect In the House

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The tariff
bill will be taken up for consideration
i'll the senate tomorrow at 2 o'clock in
accordance with the agreement arrived
at IN the committee on finance, and
with the notice of Chairman Voorhees,
to that effect, and will in all probability
be the prominent topic Of debate dur
ing the entire week. There are other
measures which may claim attention.
None of them are likely to receive it
without the consent of the managers Of
the tariff bill. Senator Hansbrough's
bill for the determination of the Russian
thistle appears upon the calendar as
unfinished business, and but for the
tariff bill would be called up Monday.
and it is in position where iG could be
legitimately pressed if its author should
feel so disposed, but it is fair to pre-
sumo that it will be quietly laid aside
for the tariff. Other questions which
week are
THE CHINESE TREATY
and the proposed bill for the regulation
of the Bering sea seal fisheries. Sen
ator Morgan has stated that he will
probably ask the senate to consider
the treaty the latter part of the week,
Bering sea bill will be considered as of
sufficient Importance to call for prompt
action. There will be little difficulty in
securing an understanding whereby
these questions can be taken up for the
temporary displacement of the tariff if
they should be considered important.
The pension and Notifications appropri-
ations are alsOon the calendar. and can
be considered at any time. but they will
not be pressed for the present. The
tariff bill will be the only order after 2
o'clock each day of the week, or until
the morning business shall be disposed
of, and there will be two hours each day
for the consideration of
MISCELLANEOUS QUESTIONS
which properly belong to that hour.
| Several amendments to the tariff bill
will be offered on Monday by the COM
mittee OH finance. after which the
speaking will begin, in which Senator
Voorhees,, as chairman of the finance
committee, will lead off. He will be re-
piled to by Senator Allison, but beyond
these speeches it is not known in what
order senators will be heard. 1t is quite
likely that Senators Mcpherson and
Hill. Oh the DeEocratic side, will Speak

| Senators Hale. Lodge. Cullom. Hoar,

The SEvENTEEN-YEAR LocUSTs.-
The insect known as the seventeen
wear locust is not, correctly speaking, a
locust. Locusts have long wings and
long hind legs like the g%rasshopper. 1t
belongs to the genius cicada, and is
very similar to the common harvest
fly which makes its appearance every
summer. These insects appear every
seventeen or thirteen years. They
come up out of the ground, crawl Up
on a tree and break out of the old
shell, leaving it sticking on the tree,
lust as do the harvest flies. They eat
the leaves of most kinds of trees, ex-
cept evergreens, and as soon as they
have laid eggs they die, generally in
two or thee weeks. The females are
provided with a sort of needle, with
which they drill holes in twigs a few
inches from the end, in which they de-
post their eggs. In time these twlgs
die and fall to the yround, and the eggs
hatch out small worms, which burrow
into the ground and remain there usu-
ally for seventeen years. They gen,
orally do no harm further than 10 XIII
