vote cast in each district. 1t was Bit
terly opposed by the Southern dele
gates, led by ex-Congressman Lynch
OF Mississippi, who claimed that the
proposed change was unfair because the
Republican vote in the South was sup
pressed. In 1892 the Southern vote was
a potent factor in determining the re-
suit, and in the succeeding summer N.
b. Scott, the West Virginia member of
the national committee, at meeting of
the committee offered resolution to
provide representation on the basis of
one delegate for each 1000 Republican
votes by congressional districts. Action
on the resolution was not taken. The
matter will again be brought to the at
tention of the committee by Mr.. Scott
whe;. it meets in St. Louis June 8.

Friends of the Measure Claim 1t VIII BE
Passed Over the Veto.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-The closing
days of the session in the house will be
mainly devoted to the consideration of
Conference reports, but the feature of
the week will be the passage of the riv-
er and harbor bill over the presidents
veto. All the friends of the bill who
are absent have received peremptory
telegraphic summons to be present when
the bill is reported back from the COM
mittee. The several votes taken on it
already demonstrate that it has consid-
erably more than two-thirds majority,
and its friends express no doubt of the
result Some fear of veto Of the gen.
eral deficiency bill is expressed among
the members of the house, because it
carries the French spoilation claims.

The immense crowd present at the
time was attracted in anticipation of
grand holiday and popular banquet in
honor of the czar's coronation. 1t was at
first arranged to accommodate 100000
people, but in view of the immense
crowds assembled in and about this city
for the coronation fetes, extra tables
and benches were hastily erected and
every effort was made to provide seat
ing room and hearty meal for 40C, 900
people To feed this multitude an army
of cooks and walters was gathered to-
gether, the army bake houses were
taxed to their utmost capacity and 5OO,-
coo mugs, each bearing portraits of the
czar and czarina, were ordered and
manufactured for presentation to the
people taking part in the great banquet.
Thousands of cattle, train loads of pro-
visions and ship loads of liquid refresh
ments were sent to the Hodynski plain
during the week and all was inreadiness
for the gigantic meal.
Crowd Was Desperately Hungry.
BY dawn the mass of peasants about
the tables was enormous, and they were
all desperately hungry, some of them
having tasted, by choice or necessity,
for nearly "a hours. The police did
everything possible to keep back the
crowd, but suddenly the masses, con-
trolled by some inexplicable impulse or
impatient to get at the food, pressed for
ward, swept everything before them and
overturned tables and benches as if made
of grass, trampling thousands under foot
and crushing the life cut of great
number of them The old and weak
naturally suffered the most, The exact
number of people killed is not yet
known. AS soon as order was restored
and the dead and injured carted away
preparations were made to proceed with
the banquet as if nothing unusual had
happened.

IHE END NOT FAR Off
Possibility That Congress May
Adjourn by Thursday of
This Week.
Disposing of Conference Re-
ports the Only Imperative
Business.
Believed the River and Har-
Dor Bill Will Pass Over
the Veto.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The senate
will begin the week with the intention
of making it the last of the session if
possible. Some senators put the day
of adjournment as early as Thursday of
the present week, while others place it
on Saturday and still others think it
will be impossible to conclude before
the first days Of next week.
The imperative work before the SEN
ate in order to reach adjournment is to
dispose of the conference reports on the
ordinary appropriation bills, to vote
upon the bond prohibitory bill and to
consider the proposition to pass the
river and harbor bill over the presi-
DENTS veto in case the bill receives the
necessary two-thirds vote in the house
to bring it to the senate.
Considerable time will necessarily be
spent upon bills on the calendar to
which no objection is made and also IL
executive session on nominations await
ing confirmation. Senator Morgan will
probably also make an effort to get up
the Cuban question in some connection.
The anti-bond bill will be pressed to
finish before adjournment Tuesday
unless there should be violation of the
unanimous agreement which was en-
tered into on Friday. 1t is believed the
bill will have a majority Of about five
votes in it's favor. The appropriation
bills still iii conference are the Indian,
postoffice, naval, sundry civil, District
of Columbia, Notifications and general
deficiency. The others have either be-
come laws or are in the hands of the
president.

wuling to correct Che Medals.

WASHINGTON, June Lit has been
found that some of the names on the
worlds fair medals are incorrectly
spelled. These errors, however, are not
chargeable to the state department, as
the spelling in every instance corre-
spends with the list furnished by the
fair bureau of awards. In order to
avoid any dissatisfaction on the part Of
exhibitors the department announces
that it will make the needed corrections
free of charge if the original medals
are returned.

CLEARING UP THE DEBRIS
Work So Far Done at st. Louis Is Scarcely
Perceptible.

Perceptible.
ST. LOUIS, June Although five
days have come and gone since the tor
nado, the labor of the city officials in
clearing away the debris is scarcely per-
ceptible. The city at night goes with
on. street lamps, either gas or electric.
The only light afforded is that fur
nished by private electric plants and
the principal streets are in. darkness.
The telephone service is practically par
alyzed, although the telephone COM
pany has had hundreds of men at work
repairing the wires. Hundreds of de-
molished buildings have not been
touched no one can tell if the ruins
conceal the bodies of victims of the
storm.
Danger of an Epidemic.
Some of the local papers have been
severe in their denunciation of the
mayor for not being more active in re-
storing order in the storm swept dis
trict. In many localities foul stencil
arises from the ruins. Whether this is
due to the fact that the ruins conceal
human bodies or dead animals time
alone can tell. The number of persons
and families who are still without
homes and without the means Of getting
them is great. Many wagons are in use
distributing food to the hungry. Over
100 teams were kept busy moving fur
niture from wrecked buildings for those
who did not have the means to pay for
van.

Silver Leader Issues Another Address to
His Followers,


WASHINGTON, June 1.-The National
Silver party, through it's chairman, j.
j. Mott, has issued from its headquar-
ters in this city an address to the friends
of silver. This address recites that
since the founding of the National
Silver party on Jan. % last the work of
organization has been steadily but
quietly pursued and the country
aroused to a pitch of excitement un-
known since the civil war. 1t declares
that the secret of suc uccess in the pending
conflict consists i'll lining up for the
battle, and that the convention of the
party to be held in st. Louis
on July % will undoubtedly be
one of the most important con-
ventions and notable gathering ever as
sembled in this country. Upon the wis
dom of its acts and that of the Peoples
party convention to be held at the same
place and time, depends, the address de-
clares, "the vital question as to whether
we can have just settlement of this
money question in our generation.
The friends of the party are urged to
push the work of organization with all
possible yigor. the purpose being to
unite for action all believers in the
restoration of free silver and prosper

Excursion Trains Bring Crowds to yieu
st. Louis Ruins.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June livery rail-
road entering this storm stricken city
ran excursion trains Sunday. They
brought scores of thousands of people
to view the devastation and ruin
wrought by the awful storm of Wednes-
day. They came from nearly every city
and town within a radius of 800 miles,
and nearly all day drizzling rain fell.
Lowering, threaten ing clouds covered
the sky, and more dismal scene than
the ruined portion of this city present
ed could scarcely be imagined. Nearly
100 burial permits were issued by the
health department, and every hearse in
the city was in constant use carrying
the victims of the storm to their graves.

Republican Convention May Decide on

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The question
of the basis of representation in future
conventions is again to be agitated at
the Republican convention at st. Louis.
At present the representation in both
the Democratic and Republican conven-
tions is based upon the congressional
representation from each state, no ac-
count being taken Of the party vote in
the states. The scheme of basing the
representation in Republican conven-
tions on the Republican vote in each
state was brought before the convention
in 1884, by General Ewing of Pennsyl-
vania, who proposed that the represen-
tation be based upon the Republican

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE death of
Mark M. "Brick'') Pomeroy at his home
in Blythebourne, l.. l., ends a noted
career. Mr.. Pomeroy was in the zenith
of his glory about 80 years ago when he
was the editor and owner of the La
Crosse Wis., Democrat. The Demo
Gratis opinions were not liked in the
North, but the paper had wide cir
culation in the South. His editorials
were copied in every newspaper in the
country, and his opinions were regarded
as very important on great matters.
He removed to New York number of
years ago and started paper, but this
venture was not much of a success.

COLUMBUS, o., June 1.-The 10000
people who gathered at Buckeye Park
on the Columbus, Hooking Valley and
Toledo railroad during the afternoon
have pretty well defined idea of a
railroad collision. Two Acton locomo-
tives, to each of which were attached
three coal cars and caboose, were run
together at speed of 40 miles an hour.
As the engines came together they
reared up in the air and the cars behind
them were telescoped, but the cabooses
were only partially wrecked. Both en-
gines were complete wreck. Kineto-
scopic and kaleidoscope views of the
wreck were taken by experts.

Waters Of Lost Creek Cause Disaster to

SENECA, Mo-, June 1.-The scenes in
and about the district of Seneca's awful
flood disaster presented picture of des-
olation. Seneca's principal business
street is divided in two sections by the
loss of the splendid iron bridge which
gpanned Lost creek. Searching parties
gre constantly beating either side of the
street in search of missing persons who
are evidently drowned. OF the Is
thought to be drowned IA have been
taken from the water. The storm
which

from which Seneca has so severely suf-
fered, spent its force at point about 10
or 10 miles east of here. The waters
came down in mighty wave, causing
O rise in Lost creek about five feet high
er than any previous high water mark
on this stream. Every merchant on
Cherokee avenue, which embraced fully
nine-tenths of the business interests of
the town, has suffered more or less di-
rect loss to stock. The losses and dam
age to stock alone is fully $4,000, while
the total loss, including inundated res
licences and loss on buildings, brings the
total up to above $50, 900.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen.
orally needed, when the languid eX-
hausted feeling prevails, when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of tonic and alternative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and free
ing the system from the malarial
poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con-
