coach. with flames of a burning coach ad-
joining It creeping toward them. a score
or more of passengers on the New York
and Chicago express, due at Broad street
station, Philadelphia, at 1880 last night.
and which was side-swiped by Paoli ac-
commodation on the Pennsylvania railroad,
remained in suspense for nearly half an
hour, while firemen and railroad men
hacked their way with axes toward them.
OF those in the coach five were injured and
their cries were mingled with the shouts
for help of the passengers. who beat franti-
cally against the side of the car in vain
effort to escape. Smoke enveloped the
helpless captives and several were rem
dered unconscious. Only four of the in
jured were taken to hospitals.

have another selected to be the honored
guest on that occasion, but failed. 1t has
been settled also, which I regret, that we
are to have as a part Of that inauguration
an inaugural ball and celebration. Now. I
do not believe in inaugurating any Presi-
dent that way. A simple taking Of the oath
COMFORTS with my ideas of an inauguration
But 1t has been settled that we are to have
a ball and certain ceremonies at one of two
places; certainly at some place. ILaughter.l
These are all facts, gentlemen. We must
face the situation as 1t Is.
NOW, where is the best place? I think.
gentlemen. there is but one place to have
this occasion, and that is the place where
they have been having 1.-THE pension office.
[Applause1 II you are going to have the
affair as arranged, have 1t decently and in
order. The Capitol is not a proper place to
have IT,
Opposed to "Regal Splendor."

that the ceremonies should be carried on
in regal manner. If understand the
meaning OF the expression IL uedHS king.
If / understand the meaning of the word
king it has no application to republic,
and am opposed to anything being done In
this country in regal manner / want 1t
done in democratic and simple manner.
am surprised that~the great advocate OF the
simple life should have such ardent friends
upon this floor demanding that he should
be inaugurated in regal manner.
Mr.. Maddox of Georgia asked unanimous
consent to insert the words pension Office

was then taken and the amendment reject

sideration of other business.
