Mayor Waddle then ran hatpin through
the deadened portion of the wrist. The
subject did not experience the slightest
pain. and not a drop of blood flowed from
the wound. When the pin was removed
the marks made by 1t soon disappeared.
The telephone receiver was then placed
to Story's ear again. and at the command
of Lee he Immediately awakened.

the hour set for the awakening.

sition he was placed in Thursday, and did
not seem to have moved in the least. Lee
made a few passes over his face and body
and commanded him 10 wake up. The man

shudder, Reese sat up and looked curl
ously at the audience. He then jumped
from the coffin like one arising from bed
and walked calmly from the stage. As ne

BANKRUPTCY BILL IS TO HAVE
FIRST PLACE THIS WEEK.
MAY GIVE WAY AFTER TUESDAY
SURE TO BE SOME DEBATE OVER AP.
PRECIPITATION BILLS.
Some Notifications to BE Made in the
Measures ms They Come From
the House-Week Not Like
ly to BE n Very
Busy One.

Washington, April 4.-Tne bankruptcy bill
will be given first place in the senate pro-
gramme next week. but it will give way to
the appropriation bills after Tuesday if the
committee on appropriations reports them
as is expected, and urges consideration.
Senator Lindsay will open the debate on
the bankruptcy bill in Its favor and it is
presumed that Senator Nelson will follow
in opposition.
The appropriation bills will excite more
or less debate when taken up, but they are
scheduled to pass with comparatively few
changes. There has been an effort on the
part of some members of the house to i'm
press the senate with the Importance of
passing these bills as sent over from the
house without any change whatever. This
suggestion is resented, and especially by
the appropriations committee, which is de-
termined to make some changes, If only for
the purpose of demonstrating the senate :
independence of the house. A few modifi-
cations, however, are absolutely necessary.
1t appears that there is an error of 100000
in the calculation of totals in the sundry
civil bill, and that one appropriation for
public building is duplicated. The commit
tee also will restore the provision for open
ing the Uncompahgre Indian reservation in
the Indian bill, but will allow only one
claim of gilsonite to each individual, and
not two, as has been heretofore reported.
The Uncompahgre matter and the question
of revol1ing President Cleveland's order for
the forestry reservations in the West will
occasion debate. The committee probably
will make no recommendation in this mat
ter, though there is possibility that it
may be transferred from the sundry civil
to the general deficiency bill. The senators
from the states affected will make an effort
on the floor of the senate to have the pro-
vision in regard to this matter restored as
it originally passed the senate.
The outlook is that the week will not be
a busy one and that the day sessions will
be short. Many senators will be absent.
The finance committee will press forward
its investigation of the Dingley tariff bill,
and the various parties will continue their
efforts to reach an understanding on the
organization of the senate committees.
Some attention may be given to the arbi-
tration treaty in executive session, but
there will not be any effort to get vote
upon it during the week Senator Elkins
will speak Monday on his bill for discrim-
inative duties on goods carried in American
vessels.
