LIVELY DAY IN THE SENATE.
The Proposed Bond Issue Precipitatcs n
Vigorous Pcra pnal Discussion.

Vigorous Peri pnal Discussion.
WAsHINGToN, Jan THE senate heard
stirring debate yesterday, the bond ques-
tion being the main issue Mr.. Sher-
mans speech which had been anticipated
with much interest for some time, initia-
ted the financial discussion. The veteran
senator was in good voice and his speech
was closely followed throughout This,
however, was merely prelude to an un.
expected financial controversy, vigorous
and personal in character. Mr.. Elkins, of
West Virginia, sought to secure an imme-
diate vote on his resolution directing that
all bond issues be advertised and tho
bonds offered to the public
Mr. Hill attempted to have the resolu-
tlon referred to committee but in q roll
call the vote was overwhelmingly in favor
of proceeding with the question. Only six
negative votes were oast-Chilton, ,Caffery,
Hill, Mitchell wis }, Murphy and Brice.
Mr.. Hill spoke vigorously against the res
Olutton. He asserted that Mr.. Sherman,
when secretary of the treasury, had made
bond contracts with New York syndicates
similar to the one now assailed. This
brought on sharp personal debate, in
which Mcssrs. HILL sherman, Hoar, Teller
and others participated The Republicans
held that the bonds should not be sold
through syndicate of bankers, but
through treasury agents, who would deal
directly with the people and thus save a
big percentage. The Democrats vigorously
supported Secretary Carlisle's plan
AT $500 o'clock the senate agreed to ad-
journ, although the motion carried by Il
bare majority of one. During the day Mr..
Morrill,, from the finance committee, re-
ported that the tariff and bond bills would
be ready on Tuesday, to which day the
senate adjourned. The house held brief
session and adjourned until Monday next

Both Engineers and a Fireman
Are Badly Iniured-One
May Die.
PANIC.sTRICKEN PASSENGERS
Hundreds of People Have Miracu-
lous Escape From a Fright
full Death.

NEW YORK, N. Y, March 21.-The the
atrical matinee express train on the ele-
waited road, which left One Hundred and
Fifty-fifth street at o'clock this after
noon, southbound, collided with light
engine northbound, on the lower end OF
the big curve at One Hundred and Tenth
Street and Columbus avenue at 2:10, and
three men were injured.
Daniel McGrady, engineer OF the express
train. is internally injured and may die.
Theo Schroeder, engineer of the light en-
glne, had his right arm fractured. Michael
Smith, fireman of the light engine, re-
ceived internal injuries, but will recover.
The accident is due to the custom OF
Sherman Smith, the train-dispatcher at
Fifty-ninth street, to start two trains from
opposite ends of the road, going in opposite
directions on the center track.
The light engine reached the big curve
at the lower end just as the express came
Hundred and Tenth street and Co.
lumbus avenue. Both engineers reversed
their engines, but could not stop them.
Before either engineer could Jump to save
his life the crash came. The express train
butted against the front end of the ligh,
engine. staving the boiler head in and de.
railing the forward trucks. The mo-
mentum of the train was so great that il
bumped the light engine fully twenty feet
before it could stop.
In the cars of the express train there was
intense excitement. Passengers were
hurled from their seats, windows were
broken and for few moments it looked
as though death were al hand. The car:
crashed together and some of the wheel:
were lifted several inches into the air
but fortunately not car left the Track
The accident was seen from the One Hun
dred and Fourth street station. and word
was telegraphed to One Hundred an6
Forty-seventh street for wreckage tain.
The employees of the One Hundred and
Fourth street station removed the injured
men from the wrecked engines and Am
bulance Surgeon Robson took them to the
Manhattan Hospital. After delay o.
nearly half an hour traffic was resumed.

NOT A COMMON CARRIER
An Answer Filed in the Suit
Against the Joint Traffic
Association.
Lake Shore Outlines the Defense of
Thirty-Two Railroad Com.
panieS.

NEW YORK, n. Y, March 21.-The
Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Rail
road Company, one of the thirty-two rail-
road companies defendant in the suit of
the United States against the Joint Traffic
Association, has filed its answer with the
clerk of the United States Circuit Court.
In substance, the document recites that
the Joint Traffic Association is not incor-
porated, is not a common carrier and is
not engaged in the transportation of
freight and passengers nor in trade. 1t ad-
mits that all the defendant companies are
common carriers, either separately or in
connection with one another, but denies
that any OF them have been otherwise en-
gagged in interstate commerce or that they
have been engaged in any trade or in rela-
tion to any article or commodity within
the scope of said agreement"
It is denied in the answer that the joint
traffic agreement entered into on Novem-
Der 9, 1895, is in any way unlawful, or that
it is intended to restrict honest competi.
ton or to establish rates of fare or freight
The joint traffic agreement, it is alleged
does not surrender the control of traffic to
the board of managers, although the asso-
citation Is advised and beleyes that 1t has
the legal rights 10 do so. 1t is the purpose
of the association to prevent illegitimate
competition and the payment of rebates
and commissions, which are ruinous to
legitimate railway traffic. The fixing OF
rates by the board of managers is contem-
plated only so far as to give connecting
roads their pro rata share.
In concluding the answer declares that
the railroad companies parties to the
| agreement are not, nor is the Joint Traffic
Association, subject to the provisions o.
the act of Congress entitled IAN act tc
| protect trade and commerce against un
| lawful restraints and monopolies," ap'
proved July ,, 1890.
| The answer of the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern Company is said to be
! identical, in substance at least and prob
ably in text, TO the answers to be received
| from the other defendant companies, and
| which it is expected Will be filed with the
Clerk of the Court on Monday next.

CRAZY HORSES MEDICINE
A Bullet-Proof Mixture That
Cost the Life of His
Brother.
Pawnees, Comanches and Kiowas
Have a Serious Attack Of the
Dancing Fever.

WICHITA, KANs., March 21.-Pawnee
Bill, who has returned from the four bands
of the Pawnee tribe in Western Oklahoma,
brings word that the majority of the En-
dians have left their farms and moved into
tepees on Black Bear Creek, where they
are engaged in the Messiah dance and
medicine-making.
Crazy Horse, one of the principal medi-
cine men of the tribe, claimed to have
made a medicine that rendered bullet
proof any one anointed Herewith. It was
agreed that the test should be applied to
his brother. The Indian was placed in
front of the council of chiefs, stripped and
smeared with the medicine. At a given
signal he was shot at with rifle. The
bullet penetrated the heart, causing in
slant death. The Indians were greatly
incensed at Crazy Horse, and he was
brought before the council for trial. He
was rich in cattle and horses, and it was
decided to confiscate all of his property.
The Federal officers. it is expected, will
indIct him on the charge of murder. The
dancing fever is spreading to the Co
manches and kiowaS.

FUR DEALERS COMBINE.
Will Control the Entire Trade of the
United States.


United States.
CHICAGO, ILL, March 21.-A secret
meeting was held in this city few days
ago, the result of which will be watched
with the greatest interest by not only the
retailers, but also the wearers of fur gar
ments throughout the country.
The meeting was attended by represen-
tatives of all the large firms engaged in the
manufacturing and wholesaling of fur gar
ments in the United States. and was called,
it is said, for the purpose of effecting con-
soIidation or trust. The following firms
were represented: II. S. Liebes 6 Co. of
San Francisco, Charles CLAM of Chicago,
John 7. Shayne of Chicago, The A E..
Burkhardt Company of Cincinnati and
Robert Meyer d Co. of Lelpsic, Germany.
The conference resulted in the formation
of consolidation, Chicago being selected
for the headquarters of the organization,
which will be known as the North Ameri-
can Fur Company. The principal whole
sale and retail warehouses will be located
in this city.
The capital stock was placed at 1,500,-
600, and the executive management will
be made up of representatives of the yari-
Gus firms which are members OF the COM
bine. The entire fur trade of the United
States will be controlled by the company.

NEARING AN ADJUSTMENT
Good Offices of the United
States to Settle the Uruan
Incident.
Venezuela Will Soon Pay Dearly for
The Arrest of a Petty
Constable.

WASHINGTON. d. c., March 21.-The
so-called Uruan incident has been divorced
from the Venezuelan boundary dispute
and practically terminated, it is under
stood, through the good offices of the
United States, without the representatives
of Great Britain and the South American
republic coming into direct relations re-
garding the affair The Uruan incident,
so called, had at one time somewhat
threatening aspect, but finally developed
into comparative insigniticance, capable of
exceedingly tame adjustment. 1t is stren-
uously contended by those most intl-
matelv concerned that the incident never
had an ultimatum stage, and that there
was never any foundation for the report
that British feet would be called upon
to initiate the Corinto demonstration.
While originally the claim presented
through the German legation in Novem-
Der, 1894, was for violation of the frontier
of British Guiana, and therefore INSOFAR
able from the boundary controversy at
Secretary Olney 8 insiste nee, Great Britain
few weeks ago modified it into demand
similar In effect to that pressed by Italy
against the United States on account of
the New Orleans riots in 1890, which claim
was settled by the payment by President
Harrison of a certain sum of money out of
the State Department contingent fund.
1t is understood that the Uruan demand
now simply becomes one for personal dam
ages inflicted upon British property and
persons by Venezuelan officials, leaving
out of the controversy the question
whether the occurrence was upon Vene-
zuelan territory as being irrelevant.
When Douglas Barnes, the British
Guiana constable, was arrested in July,
1894 by Venezuelan soldiers, on the right
bank of the Cuyuni River, which he had
crossed to stop Venezuelan. planter from
| cutting trees on land which he owned, the
Ven ezuelan Government paid Barnes $500
or $40O on account of his Imprisonment,
which he personally considered as satis-
| factory. But when the Colonial Govern
ment heard of it considerable indignation
rose in Demarara and the damages were
soon magnified to enormous amounts
which at that period the Home Govern
ment felt constrained to present as claim
against Venezuela. After two years, how
ever, and in view of the changed aspect of
the boundary dispute the claim has
dwindled to $4,000, and this amount is
probably about what Venezuela will short
fy pay, with the distinct understanding
that it does not affect the title to the terri:
tory upon which the arrest occurred.

NEW TO-DAY.

A we'll selected text is half of the SER
mon. Given good text and preacher
who is in earnest, and the result is sure
to be good. The text of this article is a
plain simple statement that proves itself
in the readers own mind without argu-
ment. The text is Good health is bet
ter than great riches"
Without health nothing really matters
very much. A hacking cough takes all
the beauty out of landscape or sunset.
Erysipelas or eczema will spoil the enjoy
ment of sprightly conversation, of beau
tiful concert, of wonderful painting.
The biggest bank account in the world
won't pay man for his health, but a
very small amount of money will make
him healthy and keep him healthy.
Most all bodily troubles start in the
digestive or respiratory organs. 1t is
here that improper living first makes an
opening for disease. The development
differs as constitutions and temperaments
differ. The causes are almost identical.
To get at the root of the matter is simple
enough if you start right.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
is a medicine for the whole body. It
works through the digestive organs on
all the others.
It cures the first thing it comes to and
after that, the next. It puts health in
place of disease in the stomach, and from
the vantage ground thus gained, it
reaches every fiber of the body and drives
disease before it indigestion, liver
troubles, kidney complaint, biliousness,
skin and scalp diseases, salt-rheurn, letter,
eczema, and all the troubles caused by
impure blood.
