A WHOLE DAY WASTED.
MIR. Cannon Preferred That the House
Should Do Nothing Than Pass ID en-
Ocratic Claims.

WASHINGTON. February 15.-Under
the leadership of Mr. Cannon, chairman
of the appropriations committee, a long
filibuster consumed the time of the House
to-day. Mr. Cannon desired the House to
proceed with the sundry civil appropria-
ton BILL was caught mapping by the
Democrats, who desired to devote the day
to the consideration of private claims. 1t
was the last day under the rules which
could be devoted to claims at this Con-
gress and notices had been sent out yes
terday asing the Democrats to be in their
seats to-day. AS a result Mr.. Cannon
was outwitted, but he kept UP the fight
all day. forcing roll calls for three hours
and later filibustering in committee of the
whole and winding up by making the
point of no quorum against two small
bills favorably acted upon in the COM
mittee. The net result was that the whole
day was wasted.

TOWNSEND'S CRAZY ACT
Stole Into Neighbor's Bedroom
and Assaulted Him With
Heavy Iron Poker.

About A o'clock yesterday morning
MIR. and Mrs. Dayton Lewis, of 1910
Church avenue, were awakened by a
noise in their room and saw standing
al their bedside their next door neigh
Dor, Jacob Townsend, with an iron
stove poker raised above his head
Before they could make a move to
intercept him, Townsend brought the
poker down Viciously and it landed
on Mr.. Lewis neck. Townsend made
an exit and retiring to his own home,
which is in the other half of the
house, locked himself in an upstairs
room.
Patrolmen John Saltry and Reese
Jones were summoned to arrest him.
They reached the room where he had
locked himself in and were trying to
induce him TO come out and surren-
der when he suddenly swung open
the door and made for the officers
with the poker They warded off his
blows and after time succeeded in
graphing him and forcing him into
subjection. After getting him on his
feet, he renewed his struggle, and it
was with nb little difficulty they
landed him in the North Scranton
police station.
Townsend is - years of age, and a
few years ago was an inmate of the
insane department of Hillside Home.
He gave evidence of return of rea-
son and his son took him to his home.
For several months past, the neigh
bors say, he has been acting queer,
and on several occasions gave eX-
IN li - ,ln
show recurrence of his mental dis
order.
His son was a blacksmith at the
Brlsbin and was discharged last week
for refusing to help to do the firing.
lie went to Johnstown Saturday last
to take another job, leaving his wife
and children to look after his father.
1t appears the old man sneaked out
during the night, armed himself with
poker, pryed open a front window
of the Townsend house and proceeded
to avenGe some imaginary wrong on
the Lewis family.
1t was the opinion of the police that
Townsend was insane and they called
in Doctors w. d. Donne and j. j. Sui
livan, jr., TO corroborate their view.
The doctors reported that he had vio-
lent tendencies and should be care
fully watched.
Last night, Mr.. Lewis appeared
against Townsend, charging him with
house breaking and aggravated as
sault and battery with intent to kill
Magistrate Fidler released him on $500
bail to keep the peace and $500 bail 10
answer to court. DR.. j. j. jenkins be-
came his bondsman.
Mr.. Lewis being afraid to sleep al
home last night, betook himself and
family to the house of a relative In
the central city.
Mr., Lewis neck was badly swoller
yesterday from the blow which he re.
ceived with the poker Had II
landed on his head. his physician
said, a fractured skull would have re-
suited.

MRS. M'DONOUGH AND
HER son INJURED
Charge That They Were Treated In
humanity by Employees of
Trolley Company.

Mrs. A, +. McDonouEh, of Dunmore,
and her 6-year-old son, Frank were
seriously injured yesterday morning in
an accident which befell a ThrOOp car,
near the Mt. Carmel cemetery.
According to the story told last night
by Mrs. McDonough, who was just able
to speak when the car on which she
and her son was riding reached the
switch at the cemetery it was obliged
to stop and walt for the Zine" car Of
the company, from the platform of
which some workmen were making re-
pairs, to get out of the way
The Zine" car was backed onto the
switch finally, and just as the other
car passed the point where it had stood,
according to Mrs. McDonough's story,
all the ironwork in the car became
charged with electricity and she and
her son. both of whom were over one
of the steel wheel plates, were thrown
by the force of the shock completely
out of the car and into the ditch near
by
Both sustained serious injuries. Mrs.
MCDonough's spine was injured to such
an extent as to completely paralyZe her
/ lower limbs. Her right arm was frac-
tured ana Sne sustained deep gaSn
on the forehead, which required five
stitches to close. The little boys arms
were frightfuly lacerated and he sus-
tanned a bad cut in the head. Mrs. Nc
Donough is in an extremely critical
condition, but it is thought that the
little boy will recover.
Mr. McDonough stated to a Tribune
man last night that the manner in
which the street railway company s
employees treated his wife and child
after the accident was shameful. He
said they made no effort to take them
any place out of the hot sun and left
them lie where they fell for over an
hour.
one of the ot ar passengers on the
car went on to T,roop on the next car
to get medical assistance, and Mr.. Nc
Donough claims that the motorman and
| conductor of an inbound car refused
point blank, when requested, to wal,
| for a minute or two to bring DR.
Jacobs down to the scene of the acci.

Sofka were badly injured yesterday
morning at the Green Ridge coliery by
vicious team of mules which they

They were both badly cut and bruised
