SlBLEY FOR EXPANSION.
Pernsy lvania Democrat Supports the
IaIicY Af the Adminiatr "a ton.


Policy of the Administration.
Washington, Feb. 2.-Representa-
tive Joseph Sibley, of Pennsylvania,
who attained great prominence in the
Fifty-fourth congress by his earnest
championship of free silver, assailed
his Democratic colleagues yesterday
for their opposition to expansion in a
speech that made the floor and gal
leries roar. Mr.. Sibley insisted that
expansion was an original Democratic
doctrine, promulgated by Jefferson,
and adhered to by Madison, Jackson,
Tyler, Polk and Buchanan. In elo-
quent language he pictured the destiny
of the United States carrying the arts
of peace and the story of the cross to
the remotest corners Of the globe. Mr..
Sibley received an impressive demon
stration when he closed. The remain
der of the debate touched the ques-
tions OF mediation in the Transvaal
war, lynchings in the south and the
jury law in Hawaii.
Nearly the entire morning hour in
the senate yesterday was occupied by
Mr.. Allen (Neb.) in discussion Of
the report of Secretary Gage concern
ing his transactions with the National
City bank, of New York. Mr.. Daniel
(va.) then delivered an extended
speech on the pending financial meas
ure. He vigorously opposed the propo-
sition that the country should go to
the gold standard. Daniel M. Rams
dell of Indiana and Charles q. Ben
nett of New York were sworn in as
sergeant -at-arms and secretary of the
senate, respectively.

KENTUCKY sTATEHoUsE.

kENTUChY STATEHOUsE.
tCrox shows where Mr.. Goebel fell after beiIa
shot.
Edelen again submitted his PROPOSE
ton and received the reply that the
Democratic attorneys desired to have
the matter adjudicated in the state
courts. To this Mr.. Edelen objected,
saying he wished the final settlement
to be made in the supreme court at
Washington. Mr.. Edelen asked for de-
tails regarding the seating of Governor
Goebel by the joint session Wednesday
night. AS it has been repeatedly an
ncunced that the Republicans would
claim that the seating of governor by
joint ballot is contrary to the Goebel
election law Of Kentucky, which pro-
vides. the Republicans claim, that the
vote shall be taken separately, the
Democrats declined to say anything
about the matter They told Mr..
Edelen that the proceedings of the
session were written in the journal Of
legislative proceedings and that he
would there find all the information
which 1t was possible to give him.
Mr.. McQuown urged the Republicans
to concede the election and seating of
Governor Goebel, which Mr.. Edelen
declined to entertain. Both sides were
at the end of their respective ropes.
Nothing more could be said on either
side, and the lawyers separated. As
they left the room Mr.. Edelen init
mated that it was possible that he
might be able to submit another propo-
sition at some time later. He was
given to understand that he would be
met half way, and the conference was
at an end.
Two direct slaps were given Gov
ernor Taylor yesterday by public Of
ficers who declined to obey his orders.
The first came from President Rod
man, Of the Farmers bank, which is
q state depository. Some vouchers on
the bank were signed by Taylor in
favor of some of the militia officers,
who wanted money for their COM
panies. When they were presented at
the bank payment was refused. Presi-
dent Rodman said he did not see how
he could pay out the money on orders
signed by Governor Taylor until he
knew for certain who was the actual
governor Of Kentucky. He had asked
an opinion from the attorney of the
bank, he said, and when 1t was receiv-
ed would act accordingly.
The second instance promised for =
time to have serious consequences, and
trouble may arise yet from It, Tay-
lor issued pardon to Douglas Hayes.

The Expres. Package Mystery.

Baltimore, Feb. 2.-The police pro-
fess to have no tangible clew to the
identity of the dead man whose body
was shipped from Baltimore to Sioux
City on Jan. 1e. The detective force
yesterday discovered teamster named
Schaefer, who says he hauled such
box as was described in the dispatches
from Sioux City to Camden station on
Jan. 16. He said he received 1t at
Courtland street boarding house. The
people at the house, however, disclaim-
ed all knowledge of the box or Of
man answering the description given
by the teamster. AS the box was not
received at Camden station the police

Prevent = Meeting of Legislature.
Frankfort, KY, Feb. 2.-For the
first time since the shooting Of Goebel
there were yesterday signs Of a peace
full settlement. The signs were few
and small, and they have disappeared,
but the hole into which they were
withdrawn has been left open. and
there is chance that they may re-
appear. The original proposition look
ing toward an amicable adjustment
came from the Republican side, when
T. l.. Edelen, Of Frankfort, one Of Tay-
lor's attorneys, appeared at the Capt.
tol hotel to hold a conference with
Judge Prior, Lewis McQuown and
Colonel William Scott, the legal ad-
visers of the Democracy.
After short talk Mr.. Edelen declar-
ed that Governor Taylor and the Re-
publican party were anxious to avoid
anything that might possibly lead to
serious trouble, as the present condi-
tions might do if nothing was done to
prevent it. He was assured by the
Democratic attorneys that they were
as anxious to save any clash between
the parties as the Republicans could
be. Mr.. Edelen then proposed to sub
nit the case of the rival governors to
the Kentucky court of appeals, which,
he declared, Judging by the action of
Judge Hazlerigg in swearing in Gov
ernor Goebel, would probably decide
against Governor Taylor. He then
wanted the right to submit the mat
ter to the United States supreme court
for final settlement.
The lawyers separated with an
agreement to meet again later. When
they met for the second time Mr.

st. Louis, Feb. 2.-Sister Stanislaus.
a teacher, and Mary Foley, pupil, lost
their lives as the result Of fire which
destroyed the parochial school Of st.
Lawrance O'Toole's Catholic parish
yesterday afternoon. There were 200
pupils and 10 sisters in the school
building. a four story structure. when
the flames broke out.
When the first alarm Of fire was
given the teachers hastily marshalled
their little charges s..1 marched them
to the street. Sister Stanislaus had got
all those under her immediate care to
the street except Mary Foley, and be-
fore they could escape they were over
come by smoke. A fireman found the
two bodies on the fourth floor and
carried them to the open air. While
awaiting an ambulance the two suffer-
ers died.
The cry of fire caused the widest
alarm among the pupils, and but for
the GOODNESS OF the sisters and the help
OF Father Brennan and two other
priests the result Of the panic might
have been worse than 1t was. Only .
few Of the children were injured.

Avertea-The Demands Of tho Illi.
Indianapolis, Feb. AT q late hour
last night the coal miners and opera
tors had made little progress In their
deliberation. The sub-joint scale COM
mittee, after being in session all even
ing, decided to call meeting OF the
joint convention for today. 1t will re-
port a partial agreement to the con-
vention and ask for further instruc-
tions. Just how far the committee has
progressed toward a settlement of the
interstate agreement has not been def
nitely announced. It was stated at
midnight however, that concessions
had been made by both miners and
operators which tended toward an
agreement on the price per ton be-
tween the operators original PROPOSE
tion OF nine cents and the miners de-
mand for 20 cents. All other DIFF
ferences in Ohio and Pennsylvania are
said to be cleared away. There is yet
considerable contention between Indi-
ana and Illinois as to the run OF mine
differential, claimed by the Indiana
miners, and the contention OF the Illi-
nois operators for change from q
run Of mine basis to screen basis.
The most interesting development
yesterday in the attempts Of the mine
workers and operators to get togther
was that two of the strong demands
made Zone from each side) were simply
trading points to be used in the final
deliberations. The points In question
are the differential, in SO far as the
miners are concerned, and the run Of
mine proposition SO strongly advo-
Gated by the Illinois operators.
The Illinois operators, it is UNDER
stood, have chung to the proposition
that the condition of the coal in Indi-
ana is such from the natural forma-
tion that 1t can be mined and marketed
cheaper, and they want protection by
the establishment OF differential Of
five cents for mining.
One of the members OF the sub-com-
mittee yesterday solemnly affirmed
that the operators and miners were no
nearer together than at the opening
Of the joint conference. Both sides are
firm in their demands, but conditions
are believed to be better than they
were Wednesday night.
