Spirited debate was occasioned in the
Senate by the introduction of a bill by
Mr.. Tillman authorizing the interstate
commerce commission to fix maximum
rates. Mr.. Foraker declared that the
bill proved that its author believed the
present law sufficient to correct all trans
portation evils except excessive rates.
Mr.. Tillman responded that he had
thought the present laws adequate until
the investigation begun by Judson and
Harmon into the Santa Fee case had
ended in a miserable fiasco. The Pan
anna Canal emergency appropriation bill
was received from the House, and after
considerable discussion, during which the
high salaries paid employees was criti-
cised, it was referred to the Appropria-
ton Committee by vote of 40 to %.
The death of the late Senator Mitchell
of Oregon was not mentioned during
the session and the erasure of his name
from the rolls follows. Announcement Of
committees was made in the House. A
resolution was passed slightly increasing
the membership in several important
committees. owing to the fact that the
from 1876 to 1856 Mr. Lamar N'la.), a
Democrat, who with Mr.. Shackleford
Mo.) had been left off the Interstate and
Foreign Commerce Committee, was
stopped from vocing open criticism of
Mr.. Williams, the minority leader, only
by the latter's strong objection. Mr..
Sulzer q. " introduced a resolution
of sympathy for the Russian Jews.
The Senate on Tuesday passed a bill
authorizing the Rock Island, Arkansas
and Louisville railroad to construct
bridges across the Ouachta and other
streams in Arkansas.
In the Senate Wednesday Mr.. Allison
presented the report of the committee on
appropriations on the Panama canal bill,
giving notice that he would call it up
for consideration Thursday. a commu-
nication from Secretary Shaw saying
that only Il few small campaign contri-
buttons had been made by national
committee appointments in which Mr..
Lamar (Fla.) and Mr.. Shackleford (Mo.)
bitterly attacked Mr.. Williams Miss.)
took up nearly all the time in the House.
The subject under discussion was the
committee distribution of the annual
message Of the President. which was not
completed when the House adjourned.
The Senate Thursday discussed the
Panama canal emergency appropriation
bill, but did not come to vote. A
separate bill regulating the issuance Of
bonds for the canal and placing them
on the same basis as other government
bonds was passed without debate. A
pure-food bill was reported by Mr.. Hey
burn. Mr.. Elkins made statement
from the committee on interstate COM
merce expressing the opinion that the
committee would report 4 rate bill with
in a reasonable time. Debate on the
recommendation in the Presidents an
nual message regarding insurance regu-
lation occupied the House again without
a conclusion. The pending resolution re-
ferS the question to the ways and means
committee. and in its defense Mr.. Payne
argued that the only way Congress could
control insurance was through the taxing
power. After Il number of long speeches
the House adjourned.

Philadelphia, Nov. 8.-The political
revolution in this city and state was
the greatest that has occurred in
Pennsylvania in nearly a generation.
It was the first time in years that
every office for which there was any
semblance of contest was lost to the
Regular Republicans. 1t Is also the
first time In a quarter Of century
the Regular Republicans were defeat
cd for control of the state treasury.
The plurality Of William H. Berry,
who was nominated by the Demo
Gratis, Independent party Lincoln par
ty and Prohibitionists for state treas
urer, will be nearly 100000, and may
60 above those figures. J. Lee Plum.
mer, the Republican candidate, ran
far behind his ticket In nearly every
county in the state. The remainder
Of the Republican ticket was elected
by the usual Republican pluralities.
President Roosevelt's plurality In the
state was more than 100000.
The victory Of the city party. the
reform organization, over the Regular
Republicans in Philadelphia by 1880
was complete and beyond the expecta-
tions of the reform leaders. The re-
form wave carried Berry along with
It. he defeating Plummer In the city
by 36.037 plurality. The complete
vote for the offices for which there
were contests was as follows:
For Sherif-Wilson H. Brown, City
party, 1859; Joseph 8. Neff (Rep),
105,346; G. r. Fisler (Socialist). 1887.
Coroner-J. NJ. R. Jermon (city

ent incumbent, 104,116.

elected. but no elector to vote for
more than two)-Rudolph Blanken.

Chase (Rep.). 10O,159; William Ems
Icy (Rep.), 99,521. Chase is elected
as the third commissioner. defeating
Emsley. his colleague, by 638 votes.
The highest total vote cast for any
one ONCE was that for sherin, the
vote being 255,292. Tho total vote
for president last year was 28l,634.
The City party claims that inasmuch
as $1,000 alleged fraudulent names
were stricken from the voting lists
since the fight against the Republican
organization began last May the vote
cast Tuesday was the highest over
polled In the city.
The Regular Republicans carried
only II Of the 42 wards.

Lincoln, Nov. 8.--Charles B. Let.
ton (Rep.) candidate for supreme
Judge, has = plurality of $4,000 over
William G. Hastings (Fusion). This
plurality Is about double the plurality
given the Republican candidate for
supreme Judge two years ago. The
Republican candidates for university
regent, who were attacked by the Fu-
sionists because Of large money gift
to the university from John D. Rookie
feller, ran slightly ahead OF their own
ticket. In Douglass county (Omaha)
the Democrats were able to secure
but one ofiice, that Of police Judge of
South Omaha. Jules Lumbard, who
has a national reputation as a singer.
and who campaigned with Abraham
Lincoln, was defeated for police Judge
Of Omaha, although his election was
