PENNSYLVANIA Senator Wants to Drop
Out the Lowest Candidates.
Harrisburg, March Ex-senator John
Fl. Brown, Of Westmoreland, created a
furry at yesterdays session Of the Joint
assembly by offering a resolution which,
If adopted would have speedily dissolved
the senatorial deadlock. The resolution
provided that the joint assembly shall on
Tuesday and Wednesday Of each week
have two joint sessions daily and from
and after yesterday the name Of the can
didate having the lowest number of
votes shall be dropped in their order
until the names Of only two candidates
shall remain on the list, and the ballot
shall thus continue until a United States
senator shall be elected.
Representative John II. Fow, Of Phila-
delphia, raised the point of order that
the resolution was out of order, because
it conficted with the act governing the
election Of a United States senator. Be
fore Lieutenant Governor Goblin had q
chance to pass upon Mr., Fow's point
a motion to adjourn was carried, and
this ended the matter
The ballot to-day resulted as follows. Quay,
81; jerks, II; Dalzell IL scattering, 32.

The jury impanelled by Deputy Coroner
Yeith, of Pottsville, held an inquest yester-
day into the death of William a. Beach, who
was killed on Monday at the crossing of the
Philadelphia and Reading tracks at New
Philadelphia. The testimony of a number of
witnesses was heard, which was conflicting.
Members of the train crew and the station
agent say that the whistle was blown and the
bell rung. Others who were near at hand
testified they heard no signal of warning
from the engineer. There was also a differ
ence of opinion about the rate of speed the
engine was running. After considerable
deliberation the jury rendered the following
verdict That William A. Beach came to
his death on March goth, at the P. & r.
crossing in New Philadelphia, by being struck
by an engine, which, we believe, was running
at too high rate of speed for such a
dangerous point; we also find that the
P. & R. company had provided the proper
crossing danger signals"
