most notable occurrences in the history
Of congressional legislation marked the
closing hours of the last session of the
senate Of the Fifty-sixth congress.
Senator Carter Of Montana signalized
his retirement from the senate by talk
ing the river and harbor bill to death.
He occupied the floor, constructively,
for nearly thirteen consecutive hours,
although in the aggregate about three
hours Of that time were devoted to
other business.
Shortly before o'clock Mr.. Allison
submitted further disagreement on
the sundry civil bill, the item in con-
tention being the appropriation for
the three expositions. From this the
senate receded and then passed the st.
Louis exposition bill. Mr.. Tillnan,
who had championed the appropriation
for Charleston throughout the session.
made a final. appeal to the senate to
save the Charleston item, but he real
lied that the Missouri senators were
more powerful than he. BY vote Of
38 to 10 the senate receded from the
was passed.
Mr.. Carter resumed his speech, final
ly announcing at 6:35 that it was his
intention not to permit the river and
harbor bill to become a law If his
strength should hold out. and saying
that at that moment he was in excel
le:1t physical condition. With the ex-
ception of brief intermission while a
n,1n hofro eaarro1 Qn6 a a.
cess of half an hour between 1880 and
II o'clock, Mr.. Carter spoke practically
continuously. He yielded the floor only
after the ceremony of the induction of
Vice President Roosevelt into Office
had begun.
In retiring as the president pro tenn.
of the senate Mr.. Frye. in response to
a resolution of thanks for his courteAY
and impartiality, delivered brief but
feeling address to the senate. At the
conclusion Of the session of the Fifty
sixth congress Vice President Roose-
welt was sworn in and Immediately
called the senate of the Fifty-seventh
congress to order. 1t was a simple but
beautiful and impressive ceremony.
The new senators were sworn in in
groups Of four. At the conclusion Of
this proceeding the senate attended
the Inauguration of the president on
the east front Of the capital. At 1:45
the senate returned to its chamber
and adjourned Immediately until to-
day.
In the House.
The house closed it's session at 11:45
amid a demonstration from its men,
bers following the delivery of an inn

in the throes Of dissolution with little
business to perform. Shortly before
the. closing hour Mr.. Richardson of
Tennessee, the minority leader, pre-
sented resolutions testifying the high
regard Of the house for the able, inn
partial and dignified manner in which
Speaker Henderson had administered
the duties Of presiding officer. Com
ing from the minority there was added
Significance in the tribute. The reso-
lutions were unanimously adopted by
rising vote. Then the speaker, in
slow and impressive tones, delivered
his closing words to the house, thank
ing the members for their co-opera-
ton through busy and eventful con-
gress. He concluded at 11:45 and an
nounced the sessions of the house foi

The penny-in-the-slot system OF
supplying gas to the poorer districts
Of London has proved so successful
that attempts are now being made to
supply electric light in the same
way. The vestry Of Battersea has
erected a large generator station and
laid the necessary cables. The ix-
lures are installed in each house free
Of cost to the consumer, who simply
pays for the amount Of electricity he
consumes. The profit derived from
this method Of distribution is said to
be sufficient to enabel the authorities
to rccoup themselves for the initial
cost Of the installation Of the fittings
in the houses.

Garrett Gibson, of Muncie, Ind,
who says that tweny-three members
Of his family voted for Mckinley,
and thinks this record can not be
beaten, must give way to the de-
scendants Of Isaac Thompson, for
seyeny-fve years a resident Of Pitts
ton, who died a few weeks ago lOl
years old. -Four years ago Mr..
Thompson voted for Mckinley, as
did four children, thirty grandehil-
dren and two great-grandchildren.
This year the vote was decreased by
the death Of Mr.. Thompson, but, on
the other hand, increased three by
the younger members, making a to-
tai of thir5-eight votes for McKin-
ley. This is a record that can hardly
be equaled in any stronghold Of re-
publicanism.
