morning in the three-story frame house
at 1852 Amsterdam avenue On the
first floor OF the tenement lived
Michael Wundt and his wife, who was
sick in bed with her infant child,

took Wundt long time to make
his family realize that the house was
on fire, and by the time they under
stood the situation it was impossible to
reach the street by way of the
stairs, SO they started for the
roof. Mr.. Wundt had to carry his
sick wife. Wundt jumped to the roof of
the next house, which is only twostories
high. Their 9-days-old baby was
tossed to him by the servant, after
which she made the l2-foot jump. Mrs.
Wundt was left on the roof of the
burning building and was rescued by
Policeman Donovan and Barber Schloe-
der. Annie X. Laub was SO excited
that although she was practically safe
she jumped to the ground. Both her
ankles were broken and she was re-
moved to the Manhattan hospital.

where the butcher shop had stood
the remains of William Letter, Wundts
helper, who had been forgotten and
had burned to death.

Regular Session.
TUESDAY. Feb. 90 In the senate
the session was devoid Of special
| interest. Senator Daniel (Va) con-
cluded his speech on the Hawaiian
question, and while supporting the
course that has been followed by the
administration, he declared that now
there was nothing to do but recognize
the new government and wish 1t god
speed. In the house the deadlock on the
Bland seigniorage bill was not broken.
WEDNESDAY,. Feb. 21.-In the senate
the Hawaiian resolution was further
discussed after q lively debate be
tween several members on the tariff
question. In the house Mr.. Bland again
failed to secure quorum Oh his mo-
ticn for vote on the seigniorage bill,
and after four hours of fruitless roll
calls the house adjourned.
THURSDAY, Feb. 32.-ln the senate
resolution was offered to instruct
the finance committee to prepare a bill

relations between the United States
and Canada and one to repeal that
part of the act of 1875 which author
ICES the secretary Of the treasury to is

out of the wholesale arrest of members
for being absent led to disorder and
tumult, which, after, continuing for
hours, was suddenly terminated in an
adjournment
FRIDAY, Feb. %. = There was no
session In the senate. In the house
the members under arrest were finally
discharged from custody by dispensing
with further proceedings under the call.
Mr.. Bland, in another futile effort to
secure vote on the silver seigniorage
bill, called the flibusters anarchists,
and said: "We were sent here to do our
duty, and a time when the cities are
thronged with mobs and the people
cannot go to bed in peace and comfort
is not the time when mob law should
obtain here" At the evening session
to consider pensions the lack of a quo
rum prevented the transaction of any
business
SATURDAY, Feb. 24-There was no
session in the senate. In the house
roll call followed roll call, the oppo-
nents of the seigniorage bill throwing
aside all pretense of not tlibustering
and boldly injecting motions to take
recess and to adjourn in order to pre-
vent vote on Mr.. BANDS motion.
Finally Mr.. Bland said: 1T is quite
evident that the bondholders have con-
troll over this country and I, therefore,
move that the house adjourn" The
motion prevailed.
