Destructive Prisoners.

1t is not unlikely that after the steel cells
in the lookup are put into use it will be
necessary to give the Council Chamber a
thorough overhauling. The room has been
used for the accommodation of female
prisoners since the lookup has been out of
repair and is now in deplorabe condition
Two women who were prisoners last Sunday
must have had war dance in the place. The
carpet is covered with filth several chairs
were broken, map of Shenandoah that
hung behind the Presidents chair looks as if
it had been soaked and run through a clothes
wringer and fine picture of machinery in
the pumping station was found crumpled and
lying in the midst of fragments of the frame
glass that once covered it. Several of the
spittoons were found turned upside down and
few were picked up under the windows in
the yard of the building 1t is surprising
they did not tear the heating pipes from their
fastenings and try to throw the safe out of a
window.

4 Fight i'm His sleen.

The occupants of West Coal street house
were startled by the noise of dull thud in
one of the bed rooms at an early hour this
morning and still more alarmed by finding
the son of the head Of the house stretched
out upon the floor. All hands were restored
to composure, however, by the explanation
that the young man had been suffering from
a nightmare and in order to escape the mad
rushes Of a bull on farm in the Catawissa
valley, made dash over fence, or rather
from the bed to the floor, and caused the
alarming thud.

Reducing the Number of BattIeships.
WASHINGTON, May 6.-The opponents oi
four battleships sustained an overwhelm.
ing defeat in the house yesterday on the
proposition to accept the senate amend
ment to the naval appropriation bill re-
ducing the number to two. Mr. Sayers
of Texas, ex-chairluan of the appropria
tions committee made the motion, and
supported his plea for economy with fig
ures as to the condition of the treasury fol
the next fiscal year. Mr., Cannon, the
chairman of the appropriations commit.
tee, ably seconded Mr. Sayers He ap.
pealed to his side of the house, declaring
the appropriations of this congress would
mortgage the future revenues of the gov.
ernment 500, 100000, and that inasmuch
as the next congress could not put new
revenue bill on the statute books inside OF
eighteen months, money would have to be
borrowed by the incoming Republican ad.
ministration to meet these obligations.
After some pertinent remarks by Mr..
Boutelle and Mr.. Cummings the house
voted, 141 to 81, to non-concur in the SEN
ate amendments and the bill was sent to

dent however, that senators were not dis
posed to submit to the hardships of pro
tracted and possibly an all night session,
and Mr.. PETER did not carry out his
announced purpose, He stated, however,
that the resolution would certainly pass
today, which, however, is doubtful in view
of Mr.. Hills ability to speak indefinitely.
Mr.. Pettigrew, of South Dakota, sup
ported the bond resolution, and severely

man for his recent approval of the treas,
