THE swAYNE CASE.

THE House Of Representatives hav-
4 Ing somewhat preclpltately noti-
fed the Senate that at some future day
II would prefer charges Of impeach-
ment against Judge swayne of Florida.
is in something OF a predicament. The
special committee having the matter in
charge cannot agree. A number Of the
members want to drop all the charges
save that relating to the expense ac-
counts OF the Judge. In fact we
gather from the expressions OF opin-
ion that come from the committee that
the other charges are either trivial or
cannot be sustained.
II. then, the House confines its case
TO the charge OF an improper expense
account. It viii have very slender
basis. The law allows Federal Judges
their. expenses when absent from
home on business, not TO exceed $40
per day. Judge swayne's counsel Of
fers to prove that the practice has
been almost uniform with judges to
charge the maximum. and not to
bother with itemizlng their accountg.
II this is really true, then half OF the
Federal judiciary is as guilty Of wrong
doing and deserve impeachment as
much as Judge swayne.
There is another phase OF this az
fair that should be noticed Judge
swayne did not 90 and take that
money out OF the treasury with his own
hands. No; his bills were approved
by the auditors department and by the
Attorney General, evidently because
the charges are customary.
Under the theory and operation Of
our government impeachment should
not be resorted to save in the gravest
instances. II. then Judge swayne is to
be impeaohed, some really serious case
Of malfeasance. must be made out
something graver than yet appears
Perhaps the Judge would prefer to
have the proceedings pushed that he
may ventilate the charges, but the ex-
pense Of counsel in such a case would
be great burden to a Judge who
has only his salary.

ORGANIZE soMEwAY.

VATILL the factions get together to-
w day and organize the two Houses
OF Legislature? The air is charged
with rumors. but nobody seems to know
what is to be done
There are some things that admit Of
no compromise When there ore two
Houses, each having speaker, Il ia
absurd to talk Of parceling out the
onices on the basis OF two-thlrds for
one party and one third for another.
About all that means anything, in
estimating party advantage In the Or
ganizatlon rests in the selaatiou OF she
speakers. Consequently the Regular
Republicans must get one Of the
speakers or get nothing. IN other
words, they must insist on their first
contention, or surrender.
We are not certain which policy is
best We think that should It become
necessary in effecting an organization
to submit TO the Union Republican
lAti0~Al anu bllNM AHtil " tlttl uuln
speakers, then they should refuse to
accept all minor positions thrown ia
them as a sop. It might be well to lei
all the people OF the State see just how
much certain sUnion headers desire
harmony and just how broad their
political view is
But were all the members disposed
to be reasonable and inclined to seek
the public and the party good, We
should urge them after fruitiess weel
Of sparrlns to get together and organ
lie the House on some basis. W.
would call attention to the fact tina
they have a duty to the state and tina
it is poor return for the trust, i'm

OPERA HOUSE ORCHESTRA
MT &c REDUCED
Union Demands That Musi
clans Pay be Increased to
$3.50 Performance

There has been trouble for some time
between the musicians union and Nixon
and Zimmerman. who control the Opera
House in this city.
The Opera House orchestra consists or
dinarliy of 1--WE men. each OF whom COM
mand a salary OF 81 for every perform
ance at which they play. The union. how
ever. has protested against not only the
price paid by the managers OF the house.
but also to the number Of men engaged
and asserts that seven men should be en-
gagged each OF whom should receive $3.50
a performance.
After correspondence between the man
agement and members Of the local union
Samuel T. Compton, leader of the or
chestra called upon Mr.. Nixon. in Phila-
delphia and laid the subject before him.
The result, Il Is said, was that the man
ager agreed to pay nve men $3.50 each but
refused to increase the number OF the or
chestra.
Upon his return to this city Mr. Comp
ton informed Jesse X. Baylis. the resi-
dent manager Of Mr.. Nixon's decision, but
few days later Mr.. Baylis received a
letter from Mr.. Nixon in which he is al.
legged to have stated that he would only
pay the rien 500 each and II the union
insisted upon the musicians receiving S2.5t
apiece. that he would cut the orchestra
down TO three instruments, piano. violir
and cornet.
The contents of Mr.. Nixon's letter wa,
submitted to Joseph Weber, president
OF the National Musicians Union and q
is possible that he win come east from hi
headquarters in Cincinnati and make al
effort to adjust the diniculty.

burg, w. Va, of his son, Richard T.
Lowndes, who did not reach the house
until after midnight.
When the governor arose he took
bath and began to dress, preparatory
to attending church services. A sudden
fall attracted the attention of Mrs.
Lowndes, who was in the room. She
summoned assistance, and the uncon-
scious form was placed upon the bed.
Physicians were hastily summoned
and were quickly at the bedside, but
death had ehsued before their arrival.
Death was due to heart failure.
Mr.. Lowndes was born in Clarks-
burg, w. Va, February p. 1S45. He is
survived by his widow, Mrs. c. Eliza

ELs@ERE ROAD INSPECTED
New Highway Was Found to be il
Good Condition.

An inspection Of the new Elsmere
road was made on Saturday by Hamil-
ton Stewart. of the firm Of Stewart and
Donahoe, contractors. and Cornelius
j. Horrigan, president OF the State
Highway Commission. At a good roads
meeting in the court house last Thurs
day a statment was made to the effect
that the road was in bad condition and
II was on this account that the inspec-
ton was made.
They drove over the entire road and
found it to be in excellent condition.
Saturday was regarded as an excel
lent day upon which to make an inspec-
ton. The frost had only recently come
out of the ground and on the previous
night there had been unusually heavy
rains. II the road was to show the ef-
fects of wear or poor construction II
would have done so on Saturday.
The only criticism OF the road to be
offered was that the cutters had beer
allowed 10 be ologged and d,tching was
needed in some places. This will bs
done az once as the contractors are re-
sponsible for the road until August
next.

Lebanon, Pa, NH Worker Accused Of
Threatening Count Won Tisza.

Lebanon Pa, Mill Worker Accused OF
Threatening Count Won Tisza.
Washington, Jan. 9.-Ignaz Wenzler,
a Hungarian living at Lebanon, Pa,
was arrested by secret service agents
for trying to extort $1,000 from Count
Won Tisza, premier of Hungary, by q
threat that he would be murdered by
the Black Hand if the money were not
paid.
Last November Count Won Tisza re-
eeived a letter postmarked Lebanon,
Pa. ostensibly from the Black Hand,
In which he was told that Ignaz Wenz-
Ter, a distant relative of his, Of whom
he had never heard, was living in Leb-
anon; that he was honest, but poor,
and needed money.
I'VE are in deadly earnest" the let
ter concluded, "and you must not dis
regard this request. It is the money or
your life. If Wenzler has not received
$4,000 by December your life will pay
the forfeit"
The letter was turned over to tho
state department. where it was re-
ferred to Chief Wilkie, of the secret
service.
Last Thursday q second letter was
received by the Hungarian premier 1t
was mailed at Lebanon December 4.
The letter stated that as ttesS200O had
not been received on December / the
brothers Of the Black Hand had drawn
lots to decide who would kill Count
Won Tisza, that the brother to whom
the black ball had fallen was on his
way to Budapest and would await in
structions here until Christina eve.
Secret Service Agents Walsh and
Cheims went to Lebanon and set a
trap for Wenzler, with the aid Of post
Office inspectors. A note was sent to
Wenzler from the postofice. asking II
he was expecting any money ana from
whom.
He replied in writing that he ex-
pected $1,000 from Count Won Tisza at
Budapest. He then was arrested.
