REVIEW OF THE STATE TROOPS.
With the Disgruntled Statesmen the
Militia Retired From the
Capitol Grounds.

FRANKFORT, KY, March 17.r"Ever-
lasting, eternalIy and forever" according
to ICY" Browns motion. the joint as
sembly of the Kentucky Legislature ad-
journed to-day. The entire session has
been devoid of results. Primarily, the
chief business of the body-the provision
of proper means and the enactment of just
laws for the conduct and administration
of government--has been neglected in the
absor rbing interest attendant upon the
Senatorial contest. During the session
the rare spec tacIe of State Capitol filled
with troops and the enforcement of mar
tial law was pres ented.
The revenue bills failed to pass to-day.
The urgent necessity for their passage is
apparent from the fact that the present
indebtedness of Kentucky is $S6O,OOO.
The militia leaves tomorrow. There
was grand review on the Capitol grounds
this afternoon. at which Governor Bradley
made speech, thanking them for their
services.
The proceedings of both branches to-day
were pretty m uch like those of other Legis-
latures. being marked by a disposition on
the part of members to do as little as possi-
BILE. In the Senate nothing of particular
importance was done. From 1920 until
noon the members lounged about the
chamber, while the clerks read some bills
that had been enrolled.
When the Senate reconvened after the
Joint assembly. Senator Clark called atten-
ton to the fact that the revenue bills were
still unpassed, and appealed to his COL
leagues not to adjourn until they had
made laws. The Senate then adjourned
till o'clock.
When the enrolling of the bills had been
completed Senator Elliston CD of Grant
County made the second appeal of the day
to the Senators not to adjourn until the
revenue bills were disposed of, but it
availed nothing, filibustering being kept
up for an hour until the special committee
appointed to investigate into Governor
Bradley's ctlon in calling out the troops
presented its report. 1t was very volumin-
Gus and wound up with the "censure" OF
the Senate.
Following is the closing sentences:
"Your committee therefore find and de-
clare and recommend tt at by the adoption
of this report the Senate of Kentucky de-
clare that the use of the military power OF
the commonwealth by the Governor was
unnecessary for the preservation of the

political purposes; that SAID action OF the

TWO MISSIONARIES PERiSHED.
Stanley S. Harvey and Wife of Boston Among
the Victims of the Explosion on

BOSTON, MASS, March IA cable
gram received by Rev. T. L. Piper of this
city, secretary of the American Advent
Mission Society, confirms the news re-
ceived of the loss of the steamer Matadi by
an explosion of gunpowder on the Congo

The missionaries who lost their lives
were Mr.. and Mrs. Stanley S. Harvey of
Boston and members of the Advent Mis-
sionary Church and both missionaries of
the American Advent Mission Society.
They had just started on their way back
to America for rest.
Mr.. Harvey was about 80 years of age.
He spent two years at the missionary

ROME, ITALY, March lin the Cham
Der of Deputies to-day Marquis di Rudini,
the new Prime Minister, presented to the
Chamber the newly formed Cabinet. Pre-
mier di Rudiui, in his address to the
Chamber. said:
"Our first thought turns to the brave
soldiers who have fallen in Africa in de-
fense of the flag. Let US send message
of sympathy and hope to those who are
still maintaining the honor of Italy in that
country. Events of which Parliament
will have to Judge have led our sons to
disaster, due to want of military prepara-
ton, and whoever is responsible for the
disaster will be punished
Continuing he denied the truth of the
rumors of the Governments acceptance of
proposals of peace with Abyssinia and an
nounced that the Government would ask
for credit of 140 600, 600 lire for the pur-
pose of continuing the campaign until
Italy had obtained an honorable situation.
He rejected the policy of colonial expan-
sion, but he said it would be dangerous to
Italian interests TO Tenounce the ter
ritory of the Tigre. Still. the Gov
ernment does not wish to impose an
Italian protectorate upon Abyssinia. The
Government, he declared, sought order in
ternally and fidelity to the triple alliance
externally.
The Premier's speech was greatly APP.
plauded, the Radicals having been especi-
ally we'll pleased with his statement in
opposition to colonial expansion. Other
groups, however, found the Governments
intentions in Africa, as outlined by the
Premier, obscure and contradictory.
"The late Ministry" the Premier said.
| ordered the opening of negotiations for
peace. We have continued the negotia-
tions and will still continue to treat, but
we will not accept any conditions except
such as Will reinstate the national honor. :"
In the Senate motion supported by the
Marquis di Rudini, thanking the British
Parliament for its sympathy, was passed
amid great cheering.
heItalian press is very enthusiastic over
the statement made by George N. Curzon,
Under Foreign Secretary. in the British
House OF Commons in regard to the British
expedition into the Soudan. The Popolo
Romano says it is impossible to exaggerate
the importance of the statement. For the
first time, the paper says the British Gov
ernment proclaims to Europe her alliance
with Italy.

Committee on Foreign Relations by the
Senators from Massachusetts, and Maine
(Hoar and Hale), but the occasion was one
of too great solemnity and too great lm-
portance to permit him TO thrust himself
into the de bate, either personally or as
member of the Committee on Foreign Re-
lations. The committee had most faith
fully and attentiyeiy examined into the
great mass of petitions referred to it and
had undertaken to confirm its opinion to
that expressed by the great body of Ameri-
can citizens.
In winding up his speech Morgan was
very severe on american emigres in the
great cities of Europe" (who owned or con-
trolled newspapers in London, Paris and
New York, and who fared up when the
Senate uttered a word Of sympathy with
Cuba), and he referred contemptuously 10
''the rec mt tiasco" of publishing an al
legged dispatch from the Spanish Premier.
He would commend to the Spanish Pre-
mier the pfoverb about the feas which tor
ment those who would consort with the
canine race. He stated without hesitancy
that the cry of Cuba for justice, humanity
and mercy had not Tin his CASEY fallen on
dumb ears and hardened hearts. Every
movement in favor OF Cuba had the same
effect he said, on excitable Spaniards as
banderillo in the neck of Spanish bull.
He suffered the taunts which he had re-
ceived in communications from the North
as to his sympathy with negro insurgents
in Cuba and he declared that he would
rather be IN the cabinet of a government
with Gomez and Maceo than in cabinet
of government with Valmaseda and Wey-
ler He preferred and the American peo-
pie demanded that Spain should not de-
prive American citizens in Cuba of their
property.
If neither party to the struggle in Cuba
could defend the rights and property of
American citizens who were there, then he
prop osed that the Government OF the
United States should intervene to protect
them at the risk OF shocking the refined
sense of proprlety with which some Sena-
tors seemed to be troubled. When the
American people and Congress had ex-
pressed their opinion in way which was
practically unanimous if the President did
not concur (as he, Morgan, believed he
would), the President would simply have
to assume the responsibility. Now that
Spain was engaged in a war with Cuba
that was perfectly hopeless, he thought
that Congress might be pardoned for ex-
pressing the opinion that war prevailed
there; that the Cubans were entitled to
the rights of belligerents and that the
people of the United States were entitled
to the opportunities and duties of neutral
ity.
He did not want to give such an appar-
ent ground for criticism, but if that fanatic
and deluded monarchy committed acts of
hostility against the United States, then
the United States would be compelled to
take up the gage of war.
Morgan spoke for nearly four hours, and,
after Mills (D.) of Texas had occupied the
floor on the Cuban question for short
time, the Senate at $40 adjourned until
to- morrow.

tant Testimony.

LONDON, Enc, March 1.-THE exam
ination of DR.. jameson and his fellow
officers in the Transvaal raid was resumed
in the Bow-street Police Court this morn
ing. AS at the previous hearings, the
courtroom was filled with mem bers of the
aristocracy, friends and admirers of the
defendants. Sir Robert I. Reid, MP,
&C. watched the proceedings on behalf
of the Transvaal Government. Associated
with him was Sir George Lewis, who pre-
pared the case for Mr.. Parnell and the
Irish party against the London Times be-
fore the Parnell commission. Among the
spectators were Lady ranborne, Lady
Raleigh and Mrs. Asquith, wife of the late
Home Secretary.
Sergeant Ruck, who took part in the
raid, was called to the witness-box and
described the progress OF the expedition
into the BOer country. Several troopers
who took part in the fight with the Beers
at Krugersdorp were called to the witness
box and narrated their experiences, the
facts of which have already been pub
llshed.
The lawyers for the prosecution laid
great stress upon admissions made by the
witnesses that stores, relays of horses,
arms, ammunition, etc., awaited the Jane
son expedition at various points on roads
converging upon Mafeking, showing that
the raid had long been planned and was
not due to the johannesburg committee S
letter, which was read after the expedition
arrived at Krugersdorp.
Several witnesses testified on behalf of
the Government that they had acted in the
capacity of messengers. When they found
the wires had been cut behind Jameson s
party so that they could not be commune
Gated with, the witnesses were obliged to
pursue the party on horseback. They over
took Jemeson and tried in vain to induce
b i'm to return.
The hearing was adjourned for a week.

COLLISION or TWO TRAINS.
Fire Follows the Wreck and the Flames Are
Extinoujshed by Snow

HARRISBURG, Pa, March 17.-News
has just been received here of bad acci-
dent on the Pennsylvania Railroad early
this morning near Steelton, few miles
west of this city. The fast line express
train, which leaves Harrisburg at 3:45
A. M, ran into livestock train at Steel
ton, and bad wreck resulted.
Two men were killed and about dozen
hurt. Several of the cars of the cattle
train were smashed, and fully 100 sheep
were killed or SO badly hurt that they were
killed to put them out of pain.
To add to the danger, the wrecked cars
caught fire and began to burn fiercely.
The uninjured passengers organized them
selves into fire department, and BY
throwing snow on the burning wreckage
succeeded in putting out the fire before it
had gained much headway.

POLICY OF THE PORTE.

Tries to Ihr0,U the Blame on the Arnsen-
ian Patriarch.
CONSTANTINOPLE, TURKEY, March
17.-The Porte has demanded that the
Armenian Patriarch write an autograph
letter. admitting himself blamable for the
outbreaks in Armenia, and it is the inten-
tion of the Porte to print the letter. in the
event of its being written, in red book,
the purpose of which will be to show that
the statements contained in the British
blue book OH Armenia are false.
The Porte has also informed the Patri-
arch that his continuance in Office will
provoke further massacres. The Armen-
ian Patriarch can resign his office only
with the consent of the National Council,
which the Sultan fears to call together.
A numbe of deputations called upon the
Patriarch on Sunday and Monday and be-
sought him to remain in Office. The mem
bers of the mixed council have threatened
to resign if the Patriarch resigns: Russia
is using strong pressure to force the Patri-
arch to do so.

legislative sessions in the history of Ken.
tucky., There was an absence of the usual
noisy scenes which attended the breaking
up of the Senate.
The struggle for United States Senator
from Kentucky which has just closed will
20 into history as the most remarkable
contest ever waged in any State in the
Union. The contest really began and was
fought at the same time the campaign for
State officers was being conducted. Al
though there were numerous candidates
for the nomination by each party caucus,
no one had any show from the start except
DR.. Godfrey G. Hunter for the Republican
nomination and Senator Blackburn for the
Democratic.
The two Houses were evenly divided on
joint ballot. the Republicans having a
majority of six in the House Of Represent
atives and the Democrats controlling the
Senate by the same majority. From the
beginning of the session acrimonious
bitterness governed each body, and to these
who know the disposition and quick tenn
per of Kentuckians the gravest results
were feared. From the first ballot TO the
last this remarkable contest has held the
interest of the entire country. Replete
from start to finish with sensational in
cidents the final act in this great political
drama was a fitting denouement and the
spectacle of legislative body of great
commonwealth being guarded under mar
tial law by the State troops will go down
to posterity as a lasting stain upon Ken
tucky's escutcheon.
