Washington, Feb. 9.-Filibustering
tactics consumed the time of the house.
The senate passed the Indian appropria-
ton bill.
Washington, Feb. 10.-Chairman Can
non of the committee on appropria tions
notified the house that the Hanna-Payne
shipping subsidy bill cannot pass, nor
the Nicaraguan canal bill, because Of
the deficit in the revenues. The legis-
lative and judicial appropriation bill
was considered in the senate.
Washington, Feb. 1.-THE memory of
the late Representative Dingley was
fittingly honored in the house of repre-
sentatives by those who had been close
ly associated with him. After spirited
debate Of more than two hours, a unan-
imous consent agreement was made by
the senate to vote upon the resolution
Of Mr.. McEnery Dem., La.) declaratory
Of policy Of the United States as to

smoke SO dense they could do nothing.
They then telephoned Chief Thompson,
who was at the depot, and he came up
town and rang in the alarm. The fire
caught from heater in the club rooms
which seems to have chsrred the timbers
under the floor through layer OF brick
and asbestos. The club rooms were
smoked and wet some by hand hose, and
the ceiling in the Keene Cash Grocery
was torn open and small quantity of
water came down. Some 5000 or $500
will probably cover the damage. The gro
Gerry stock is insured in the Insurance Com
pany of North America with E. S. Leon
ard, and the Western Assurance Company
with j. E, Brosnahan; the building is in
sured in the Springfield Fire and Marine,
the Fitchhurg Mutual, and Quincy Mutual
with E. S Leonard, and the Cambridge
Mutual, British American and Palatine
with E. l.. Walker.
This made the third fire that has been
put out with an extinguisher within year.
The corporation owns four of these extin-
guishers at present, and the fire wardens
recently ordered tour more. Some of the
C mmissioners at the request of the FIRE
wardens thoroughly tested every hydrant
in town Thursday. They found II of
them in a questionable condition and so
applied the molasses. Contrary to reports
the only hydrant in the Square which was
frozen was the one near the store of Be-
dine q Davis.
The water commissioners say that since
the corporation ceased paying the water
department for the use of the hydrants, the
care Of the hydrants falls on the fire war
dens.

aminers Longfellow, Perkins and Terry
held an autopsy yesterday on the body
Of Mrs. Amos D. Palmer, who was shot
by her husband at their home in Edge
wood, a suburb Of this city, Sunday
night. Four bullet holes were found in
the left breast, and one in the left
arm, entering at the wrist and leaving
at the elbow. The upper wound, about
three inches above the nipple, caused
death, the bullet having passed through
the heart. The wounds were close to-
gether, a short distance below, and the
fourth was within a radius of four
inches. The course of the bullets con-
verged to the stomach, through which
they passed, lodging In and near the
spine. Medical Examiner Longfellow
has reported the case to Coroner Haw-
ins, who will hold an inquest.
