The WEEK IN CONG1tSS


WARRINGTON, April 18-The struggle
over the adoption Of the new quorum
counting rule decided upon by the Demo
cratic caucus last Friday will be the feat
ure of the present week in the house. In
asRuch as about one-third of the Demo
Gratis are violently opposed to any quorum
counting rule, rs indicated by the vote in
the caucus, IL will be impossible for the
Democrats alone to adopt such a rule.
The Republicans will however, acquiesce
in the adoption Of any rule that contains
the essential principle Of recording ms
present but not voting" those members
who decline TO respond TO their names.
This is the parliamentary principle which
Mr.. Reed has boon contestinK ever since
the end Of the Fifty-first congress. II
must be embodied in any new rule sub
nittsd to the house or It cannot be adopted.
II is expected when the rule is presented
Mr.. Reed will make one of the greatest
speeches OF ais life. Owing to the death
Of Senator Vance both houses adjourned
today, and the fight over the new rule Ia
the house is postponed until tomorrow.
1t il probable that but little time will he
allowed for debate, and the chances are
that when the house sdiourns tomorrow
evening the quorum counting rule will
have BEEN adopted and flibustering Of the
kind which has characterized the proceed
ings Of tho house for the past three years
will be a thing Of tho past.
The resolution adopted by the caucus
instrustins the ssrEoantRt-srms to en-
force Section ~ Of ths revised statutes, de-
ductinE the salary Of absent members,
save on HoooBnt of sickness, it is believed,
will have ths sTeSt Of securing = very full
attendance in the house hereafter As
soon IS the now order Of things has been
in8ugurated in the house the considora-
tion Of the appropriation bills will be re-
sumed snd will consume the remainder of
the week
With tho exception Of the Chinese treaty,
which 10 ~ bs considered tomorrow, aud
the routine usTninE business Of each day,
the week in tho soANta promises nothing
bat . OORtinuahoR OF tariff debate.

FAILED TO OBEY ORDERS.
As Result One Man Was Killed and
Many Cars WrCoksd.

HAzLEToN, Pa, April 16.-A Pennsyl-
Vania railroad freight train collided with
a Lehigh Valley express train At noon yes
terday near Silver Brook, a few miles
from here on the Lehigh Valley railroad,
and Patrick Daley, Of Milton, Pa, was in
stantly killed and twelve ether passengers
and train hands slightly injured. The ao'
Oident was due to an overnight of the crew
Of the freight train,
At Pottsville the conductor and engi-
neer Of the freight consulted the schedules,
but looked at those of the Pennsylvania
instead of the Lehigh Valley railroad.
They thought they found a clear track,
and came down the mountain at a high
rate of speed, falling to take the siding at
Silver Brook, rs ordered. The train col
lided with the express with terrific force,
and the freight cars were telescOpod and
crushed into kiudling wood. The engines
were badly broken and the furnishing Of
the passenger cars torn out, the passen-
gers being badly shaken up and thrown
about. Daley was riding on one OF the
cars in the freight train and was thrown
into freight ear and horribly mNngled.

LIBERAL ADVERTISING.
RtmArkAblo Success OF u Firm in the Use
OF PrInters LAX

hfmArhADAo success OF y firm IN the Use
OF Printers LAX.
InJanuary when times were the hardest
and many advertisers were reducing their
expenditures for printers ink, the papers
had an order from the proprietors Of
Paine's celery compound for the largest
amount Of advertising ever published by it
for any medicine.
The wisdom of this course is shown by
the fact that to-day the druggists of this
city report that no other medicine sells as
freely as Paine's celery compound. This
Is n good object lesson for the local adver-
tisers, and shows that If they have an ar
ticle Of superior merit, and will advertise
it literally and judiciously in the papers,
they Will find their trade increasing, and
hard times will not be noticed by them.
Among newspaper men, Paine's celery
compound is especially popular. There is
no occupation whose requirements are so
wearing upon the nervous system as that
OF newspaper work. Subject to duty at
all times, with IA liability TO sleepless
nights and dinnerless days, there is a
peculiar strain upon the system in the
reporters work, which frequently leads to
physical exhaustion and mental depres-
sion. Many newspaper workers in Penn
sylvania who have suffered severely from
nervous troubles, arising from overwork
and close confinement ind pleasure in at
tributing to Paine's celery compound
their new strength and vigor. 1t is an
ideal medicine, producing lasting good
results, and is pleasant to take. It is a
soothing, strengthening, and altogether
wholesome remedy that will cure any
case of nervous exhaustion or kindred all
ment that has not reached hopeless
state, il indeed such a condition is possible
since the invaluable properties OF celery
have been utilized in combination with
other herbs to make this preparation.
At this season of the year, when the
nerves need strengthening and the blood
purifying, there is an enormous demand
FOR the compound, which serves to prove
the value of extensive and judicious ad-
vsrtising of meritorious article

Caught OH the Fly.

A would-be tax jumper who was about
to flee from the town by a neatly planned
trick was caught by Tax Collector Sean
Ian, Saturday afternoon The delinquent
was u Pole. He had confederate who
cared for his baggage, The confederate
arrived at the Lehigh Valley station half
an hour before train time and secreted
the delinquents' valise in box at the
side of the track opposite the station.
When the train pulled in the delinquent
stepped boldly aboard and his confederate
drew the valise from its hiding place pre-
paratory to handing it through car
window to the owner. The eagle eye OF
Collector Scanlan caught the drift of the
scheme and in another moment the valise
and delinquent were in his custody. The
Pole was detained until he squared his
accounts with the borough.

THE HOLOCAUST AT BUFFALO.
II Is Now Believed That twenty-five
Workmen Perishod.

II Is Now Believed That twenty-five
Workmen Perisksd.
BUFFALO, April l6-Tho work of search
ing the ruins of the works of the Aneri-
can Glucose company for bodies was be
gun yesterday, and when the workmen
were compelled to quit by darkness the
remains Of four bodies had been found.
They were taken to the mcrgue, where
they now are, Identification being inpos-
sible. The largest portion OF charred Hesh
and bones found was part of a mans
trunk found outside the walls The man
had evidently jumped from window and
been caught by falling wall and roasted
outside the building.
The morgue was crowded all day with
weeping Polish women, wives and rela-
tives of the men burned They made a
great outory when the charred romans
were brought in, and some of the more
demOnstrative threw themselves ON the
blackened pieces of flesh and Oaressed
them. The morgue officials had to use
force to get them away from the remains.
The exact number Of men who we're ere
mated cannot yet be definitely stated. 1t
Is absolutely certain that twelve men
were burned, but there is grave reason to
fear that there were n number of Others,
and it is not improbable that there were
twenty-five victims.
