Pittsburg, Pa, March 2.-With
every tributary of the Allegheny and
Monongahela rivers emptying swirl
ing torrents into the banks of these
two streams and rushing down to the
point where they converge to form
the Ohio, Pittsburg was given Q
visitation yesterday which forced
hundreds Of families to either aban-
don their homes or seek escape from
the water in the upper stories, while
mud and water dispensed destruction
and discomfort below. Mills In the
low-lying levels throughout the coun-
ty, numbering between so and 90,
were flooded and 3s,375 men are
thrown idle for four or five days with
loss In wages of more than $780,
749. The food was general through
out western Pennsylvania, the
streams overfowing their banks and
causing more or less damage 70
houses and farms that lay in their
course. Down town in Pittsburg eel
lars and Easements of business houses
which are in the general food belt
were inundated, while In Allegheny
City two railroads we're temporarily
paralyzed, owing to the water which
covered their tracks. People In the
Hrst and third wards, Allegheny, had
to adopt Venice methods Of going TO
and from their homes. Gondolas OF
the ordinary skiff type were COM
moner than wheeled vehicles.
At McKees Rocks and Corapolis, .
few miles below Pittsburg, the water
last night was so high that the busi-
ness sections Of both places were un-
der water and several street car lines
we're forced to suspend operations.
East Liverpool. o., reports 80 feet OF
water, rs houses flooded and several
of the pottery plants damaged, OF
which the Thompson Pottery COM
pany will suffer most. Street car
service to Smiths Ferry has been
abandoned. At Wellsyille, four miles

By Simmons-Establishing state

By Ward-Prohibiting the making
of exclusive contracts for handling
machinery and merchandise.
By Carpenter - Appropriating
money for G. A. R. museum in the
state house.
By Prestana--Providing that all
three schools of medicine shall be
recognized in the selection of super
intendents of the state imbecile and
lunatic asylums.
1t is evident that If any tax bill Is
passed at this session Of the legisla-
ture it must be framed along admin
istration" lines. The house, con-
trolled by the administration ele-
ment, took up the bill as 1t came
from the senate and worked on 1t
under special order all the afternoon
and evening. Many changes were
made. A vote was taken and Wag-
gener's amendment exempting notes
and mortgages was defeated. Then
Waggener submitted an amendment,
which was adopted by vote OF 40
to 3s. Although couched in mystify-
ing phrases, this amendment virtual
ly does what the amendment voted
down sought to do. 1t practically ex-
emnts from taxation all notes and
mortgages drawing five per cent or
less interest.
Laughlin, Of Atchison, introduced
in the house a bill providing that all
hawkers or venders of patent medi-
cines or drugs Of any description
must pay license of 500 month.
Violation of the law is made punish
able by fine of from $10O to $500.
Other bills were introduced as fol-
lows:
BY Parker-Authorizing Douglas
county to establish county high
school at Lawrence.
BY Grifin-Permitting 0skaloosa
township, Jefferson county, to con-
struct macadam roads.
BY Husey-Permitting a person to
shoot but rs game birds in day.
This bill was before the house once
before, but was killed on account OF
a rider attached to it providing for
the creation of the Office of state
fish and game commissioner with a
salary of 81 800 q year.

Topeka, Kan, Feb. Ex-senator
Stewart has won his first battle to
reduce the expense of state printing.
He succeeded yesterday in showing an
amended bill through the senate, by
a vote of so to 8, providing that the
state printer shall do the printing as
required by the constitution, and
that all binding, bookmahng, etc.,
be let to the lowest bidder. The bill
carries $4,000.
Senator Wulfekuhler introduced .
resolution protesting against the
United States senate seating the
Mormon senator-elect from Utah.
Senator Leidy's bill giving, teach
ers a days wages for attending
county teachers institutes each
month during the school year was
roughly handled in the senate. Vim
cent offered an amendment to strike
out the provision giving them pay.
He said that it meant the expendi-
ture of $135,OO0 year in the state.
He thought that was too much.
Leidy argued against the amend
ment. The amendment carried by
one majority. Then Leidy moved to
recommend the bill for passage sub
iect to amendment and debate, and
the motion carried. When the bill
comes up in the senate for passage
he will try to have the pay provision
reinstated.
Senator Morehouse has squelched
for the present the bill to lop of so
sections of land from his county,
Morris, and add it to Geary. The bill
was adversely reported by the judi
ciary committee in the senate. Nen-
ator Mcknight moved that the bill
be printed and placed on the calen-
dar. ,yMbrehouse opposed the motion
vigorously He said that the bill had
been killed in committee and that the
senate should not dignity it by plac-
ing it on. the calendar. Meningitis
motion was defeated. The bill has
been reported for passage in the
house.
Senator Caldwell's bill to reduce
yardage and feed charges at Kansas
City and Wichita stock yards was
reported favorably by the senate
committee on agriculture.
Ninety local bills were passed by
the senate in one omnibus at noon.
This almost cleans the senate calen-
dar of local measures.
Senator Gabriel's bill creating a
board to regulate the plumbing busi-
nes in all cities over 1900 population,
has passed both houses and been
sent to, the governor for his sigma
ture.
In the senate, the bill appropriate
ing an additional 100000 for the
Kansas exhibit to the St. Louis fair
was passed. 1t allows the commits
sioners $12 day for salary and ex-
penses, and provides that the gov
ernor shall remove the commission
ers only for cause. The house has
passed bill giving the commission
ers SIS a day and giving the governor
authority to remove the commission

= It was with some difficulty that
Lieut.. Gov. Hanna secured a quorum
of the senate for a night session,

those ordered engrossed were the
following:

ton bill. If it passes the senate and

Topeka, Kan, March Ex-senator
Porter, of Crawford, yesterday intro
duced a resolution barring everybody
off the floor of the senate for the re-
mainder of the session but senator's
and employees and also limiting
speeches to five minutes each. Aft
erward he modified it SO that the
press could get in. He said that the
session was now drawing to a close
and it was time that the senator's be
left unmolested SO that they could
clean up the calendar.
Pestana opposed the resolution.
He declared that Senator Porter had
had big lobby up here all session
working for bills and now that his
bills were out of the way he (Porter)
wanted to bar the lobby. The other
senators should now be given
chance.
,, Allen moved to exclude employees
and let all others in. King said 1000
farmers from Cowley county were
coming here to get copies of the CO.
burn report which the house was
holding up and that they wanted ac-
cess to the senate chamber SO that
they could thank the senate for its
stand in favor of Coburn and the
farmers.
Morrow offered an amendment to
make the Porter resolution only ap-
ply to lobbyists from Porter's own
county and the resolution, as amend
ed, was adopted overwhelmingly.
The Pestana bill requiring the state
board of charities to recognize the
three schools Of medicine-homeo-
path, eclectic and allopath-in the
appointment of physicians for the
charitable institutions, was killed in
the senate. 1t received only 10 votes.
Senator Whites state fair bill

stands a good show of going through
the house.
The senate yesterday passed these
bills:

ing. 80
