A WILD SCENE OF RIOT IN
pennsylvania HOUSE.
COlNrY, WAe OPPOSED THE
PITTSBURG RIPPER,
SET UPON BY THE OFFICERS.
FRIENDS AND OPPONENTS OF THE
MEASURE INDUCED IN A GEN.
ERAL FIGHT.

HARRISBURG, Pa, February III
The most exciting scene ever wit
messed in the hall of the House OF
Representatives occurred at the close
of the debate late tonight on the
Pittsburg Ripper" bill. When Spea-
ker Marshall put the question of
whether the Ripper section shall pass.
the opponent OF the bill demanded a
roll call.
Mr.. Hosack, who sat directly in
front of the Speakers desk, arose to
a question of personal privilege.
Meantime the clerk began calling the
roll and the Speaker ruled the Ale
gheny member out or order.
Mr.. Hosack insisted that he had a
right to be heard and interrupted the
calling of the roll with loud cries of
'fMr. Speaker" Mr.. Speaker" Mr..
Marshall finally directed the member
to take his seat and when he refused
to, he called upon the sergeant-at-
arms to restore order. Three assist
ant sergeant-at-arms seized Mr.. Ho-
sack and violently threw him into his
seat. Instantly the House was i'll an
crowded about him to protect him
from the officers. A clerk caught Ms.
Coray, of Luzerne, by the throat and
attempted to drag him from the hall.
Several members jumped upon the
desks in the vicinity of Mr.. Hosack's
seat and demanded the officers to re-
lease him. Meantime Speaker Mar
shall was pounding with his gavel
for order, but he could not be heard
above the din and confusion.
The officers released Mr.. Hosack and
when quiet was being restored, a spec
tatOr, who had the privilege of the
floor, caused another outbreak by call
ing to the friends of the Ripper to
eject Mr.. Hosack from the hall. Sew
eral members resented this and at
tempted to eXpel the spectator from
the chamber. Blows were struck and
a general scuffle ensued, but the cool
headed members quickly restored or
der and the clerk proceeded with the
roll call without interruption. The
Ripper section was adopted by a vote
Of 104 to 80, after which the bill pas
ed second reading. 1t will be taken
up tomorrow for the third reading and
final passage.
The bill was taken up at the open
ing of the session, and after the first
section was read its opponents moved
to Indefinitely postpone. The motion
wa defeated by a vote of 102 to 80 and
the bill was read section by section
until the Ripper clause was reached.
Then followed a sharp and exciting
debate at the close of which the riot
ensued.
