WARRINGTON, Feb. 13-A chart issued
by the weather bureau shows that east of
the Mississippi river the snow covered area
has reached unusually low latitudes, and
that from northern Georgia, eastern Ten
messed and the western part Of the Caro-
linas northeastward to New England the
ground is snow covered with greater
depths than at any previous time during
the winter In the Mississippi valley as
far north as St. Louis and over the south
ern part of Illinois Indiana and Ohio
there is little snow, generally less than
three inches, but to the northward the
snow is very deep ranging from ten TO
eighteen inches. Snow is heavy over
North Dakota, eastern Montana and Col
orado, but has diminished during the
week over Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri,
Arkansas and northern Texas.

NEW YORK, Feb. ia late arrival

formation of the seriousness of the revolu-

government reports as disastrous to the

assert that this Is untrue. The activity OF
the government in chartering the coast

Affairs on the isthmus are very dull and
seemingly quiet, but an outbreak is i'm
minent at any time, as the iaborers en-
ployed by the Panama Railroad and Canal
companies are on the verge of n strike,
owing to low wages and increased cost of
living since Jan. 1. The presence of the
Atlanta at Colon and the Nymph and Sat
elite, two English men of-war, at Panama,
has a snlutary effect on the dissatisfied en-
ploycs. Heretofore all strikes have re-
suited in burning and pillage.

IN SENATE AND HOUSE.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 1e.-The house had
turbulent session yesterday over the final
passage Of the legislative and judicial bill.
Two of the items of the bill-reducing the
force at the pension office and providing
annual clerks for members of congress-
excited warm controversy, Messrs Pickler
Is. d., Milliken (Me), Hainer (Neb) and
Baker IN. III } protesting against the reduc-
ton of the pension office force, alleging ID
was covert move to displace old soldiers
and widows of soldiers employed there.
The debate was diverted into financial
channels by Messrs. Coombs and Van
Noorhis, OF New York, who INDUCED in
hot criticisms and personalities The op.
position to tho pension item was not eff
fectlve, however, and the effort to secure
annual clerks for members was finally de-
fcatcd The bill was then passed.
Though the postofflce appropriation bill
had the right of way in the senate, much
of the time of that body was consumed in
speech by Mr.. Stewart on the presidents
message and another by Mr.. Allen contin-
ulng his discussion Of the alleged frauds
in Alabama. The latter occasioned some
debate, in which Mr.. Morgan took prom
inent part. In the morning hour Mr..
Jones reported the bill adopted by the
finance committee providing for tho FREQ
coinage of silver, and Mr.. Gray reported
the adverse action of the committee on
privileges and elections on the bill provid-
ing for the election of senators by direct
vote of the people. When the debate was
resumed on the postoffice bill tho discus
sion dragged along and no progress was
made. At 5o'clock, by special agreement,
private pension bills were taken up and
the appropriation bill laid aside After
short executive session the senate adj
