STORM CENTER
In Congress the Coming
Week Will be in Senate
Over the Railway Rate
Bill.

Washington, May THE storm cen
ter in congress the coming week will
be in the senate over the railway
bill, although the further considera-
tion of the naval appropriation bill
in the house may bring forth some
oratorical fireworks.
The senate will proceed under the
limitations of debate to consider
amendments, voting upon each in turn
one entire afternoon to perfect and
agree to the first amendment, which
put oil pipe lines within the scope
of interstate commerce. This delay
arose purely through differences OF
opinion, as to the phraseology. There
are almost seventy other amendments
to be voted upon, with no limit at
present to the total number to be
offered but it is the belief of senators
that rapid progress will lie made.
If the so-called Allison amendment
providing for cost review, holds the
strength it undoubtedly has now, an
effort may be made by its advocates
to have it taken up out of regular
order, and voted upon. If the judi
cial review proposition is forced, the
entire week may be consumed in dis
cussion. There are a dozen amend
ments covering that question and
each senator is permitted fifteen min
utes to debate each one, if he so de-
sires, Those senators who are eager
to get the bill out of the way favor
postpOning the judicial review fea-
ture until there have beer disposed
CT a dozen important amendments,
about which there is only slight cppo-
sitlon.
The high tension under which leg.
is'ators have been working is Dccom-
ing manifest in both branches. An
acrimony is notice able in debate.

Wlnd-Made Electricity.

Wind-Inade electricity holds out the
promise of becoming a great boon to
rural districts; and the day is near
at hand when every farmer who has
a windmill on his grounds can enjoy
electric lights and the many other
services which electric power is capa-
bic of yielding. For many years, men
have been trying to convert wind pow
er into electricity. r. w, Wilson, OF
Indiana, has worked out a pTactca-
BILE method of accomplishing It.
In producing wind-made electricity,
WilsoR calls upon the windmill to
perform its customary functions Of
Jumping water. He leads the water
into a hydraulic regulator built on
the pressure is controlled by weights
and from which it is released by means
of automatic valves.
This regulator is the means of main
tanning an even pressure under all
conditions, whether the windmill is
revolving fast or slow.
Under the uniform pressure. the
water is passed from the hydraulic
chamber through a water motor TO
which a dynamo is attached.
Mr.. Wilson demonstrates the sue
cess of the invention at his own snop,
which is brightly lighted with wind
made electricity, and to all appear
ances it equals the steam-made nEo-
duct that city folk enjoy.

E.CORNERED FIGHT
Growing Warm as the Day For Holding the Eight
eenth District Primaries Approaches --kennedY,
Speaker and Grant in Race

gates to the district convention. Stark
county fell in line and adopted the
same rule.
The question whether part is
greater than the whole is one which
the courts are quite likely to be
called upon 70 wrestle with. Speaker
and Grant have announced heir can
didacies in their home counties alone.
Kennedy is a candidate before the
primaries in each of the three coun-
ties. Columbiana did her best to curb
his ambition by fixing his entrance
fee at $500, but Kennedy put up the
cash. Mahoning retaliated by deCiG-
ing that $50 should be the entrance
fee for the home candidate and for
Grant, if he decided to come in, but
that Speaker must pay 5000 or else
stay out of Mahoning.
Kennedy cannot expect a majority
in any county save his own, which
will probably be solid for him. But
it is evident that he does expect to
carry some districts in Stark and
Colum biana, giving him basis for
OchlCollhEo tbS uhlL lulC hAN" W
the committees of those counties.
The convention will be composed
of 260 delegates apportioned as fol-
lows: Stark, ia; Columbiana, rs;
Mahoning, 70. Necessary to choice
131.
Speaker Cannon interested himself
in Kennedy's campaign for re-elec-
ton over a month ago by writing a
letter to three leading Republican
politicians who are manufacturing
potters of Fast Liverpool in which ne
strongly advised the district to stand
l-by its present representative as in
view of the approaching fight over
tariff revision Mr.. Kennedy would be
in position to WELD much greater
influence than a new man. This was
Uncle Joe's'' first stand pat" utter
ance and when the letter was pub
lished it attracted the attention OF
politicians and newspapers all over
the country.
But Cannon's letter was not the
only card which Kennedy had up his
sleeve. A few days ago he made pub
lie an open letter addressed to him
and signed by twenty-four of the
leading pottery manufacturers of East
Liverpool, pledging their support to
the present congressman.
The three candidates are doing
their best to arouse interest in their
favor and the chances are that the
primaries throughout the district on
Saturday next will be largely attend
ed.

AMENDMENT
Offered to Limit Free
Transportation by
Common Carriers.
Would Stop the Issue
of Passes.

Washington, May THE senate late
this afternoon adopted an amendment
to the railway rate bill, which, if it
is accepted by the house of repre-
sentatives, will make it q misdemean-
or for any common carrier to give
free transportation to any but a lin
tied number of people.
This action followed q four hours
debate, begun by pretty general de-
nunciation of railroads and ending in
spirited discussion of the rate ques-
ton. Consideration of amendments
looking to preventing common carriers
from owning coal and other products
carried by them was in progress when
adjournment was taken.
The anti-pass provision agreed to
is as follows:
THAT no carrier engaged in inter-
state commerce shall directly or in
directly issue or give any free ticket,
free pass, or free transportation to
any person except to the officers,
agents, employees and attorneys ex-
C1uSlNtly III tDc lNltO vi Tie Idt
Issuing the same, or to ministers of
religion, inmates of hospitals, eleemo-
synary or charitable institutions. Any
carrier violating this provision shall
be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor
and shall for each offence pay to the
United States penalty, of not less
than $100 nor more than $4,000"
The consensus of opinion was that
the issuing of passes should stop.
This amendment was offered by Mr..
Culberson (Texas) as a substitute to
the anti-pass amendment, offered
earlier by Mr.. Foraker, which pre-
cipitated the race discussion 1t was
prepared to remove the objection OF
certain senators to a feature in the
Ohioans provision that to their mind
would interfere with the proper reg
ulation of the races by the southern
states and embarrass the operation OF
the Jim Crow" laws.

TO EXTEND WELCOME.
City Officials and Kec1kers Of Board
Of Trade Plan for Big Reception
to Pittsburg Boomers,

An enthusiastic welcome to members
of the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association of Pittsburg will be ex-
tended on Monday evening, June A,
when the Plttsburg boomers arrive in
the city on tour of Ohio towns and
cities.
At the regular meeting of the coun-
ell Monday night the Canton board
of trade, through Mayor Turnbull, ex-
tended an invitation to al city ofiic-
ials to take part in the rousing re-
ception which will be given the Pitts
burgers on their arrival here. The
invitation was unanimously accepted,
and the councn will probably forego
the holding of regular meeting on
June A. to welcome the Pittsburg mer-
chants and manufacturers.
1t is expected that the special
train bearing the. Pittsburgers will ar
rive in the city of Alliance about 1880
o'clock on the evening of June 4. 1t
is proposed to first take the Pittsburg-
ers to Meyers lake, Canton's summer
resort, and from there to the Country
club, where the big reception proper
will be held.

Lisbon, o., May Although James
Kennedy of Youngstown, representing
the eighteenth district in congress, re-
ceived the Republican nomination two
years ago without opposition, and al
though he was elected by plurality
of 20,467, he now finds it necessary
to make strenuous fight for the
nomination for a third term. Republi-
can primaries are to be held in the
three counties of the district, Co
lumbiana, Stark and Mahoning Sat
urday
Mr.. Kennedy nas temporarily laid
aside the cares of state at Washing
ton and is devoting all his time to
looking after hisp olitical fences. Ii
is triangular race, just as it was
four years ago, when Kennedy was
first nominated. The leading candi,
dates are the same now as then.
They are Congressman Kennedy of
Youngstown, Charles S. Speaker, of
Lisbon and James j. Grant of Can
ton. All are lawyers experienced in
the game of politics.
Mr.. Speaker is the present Repub
lican chairman of Columbiana county
and Mr.. Grant is looked upon as the
leader of the faction temporarily on
top in Stark county politics.
STAR CHAMBER SESSION.
The district congressional con.
mittee some months ago suddenly
conceived a surprising interest in tho
approaching fight, and its, members
at an alleged star chamber session
decided that the unit rule, heretofore
observed in the district, should be
abolished at the primaries and that
the candidate receiving the highest
number, of votes in a precinct be en-,
titled to select the delegates from
that precinct. This plan had pre-
vioUs!y been earnestly advocated by
Congressman Kennedy in published
interviews, and has lately been
adopted by the Republican committee
of Mahoning county.
The plan was not bit satisfactory
to COlumbiana county, whose Repub
| lican committee was the first to meeV
after the district committee had prom
ulgated its edict. Chairman Speaker
in the committee meeting roundly de
nounced the district committee for
interference in a matter which, he
maintained, should be settled by the
county alone
The recommendation of the con
gressional committee was ignored ant
| it was decided that the candidate re,
ceiving most votes. in the county bt

MAY Get
twenty-five Gents on the
Dollar But it May be
Nearer Eight Gents in
the Prior Failure.

Cleveland, O., May Local credi-
tors of Denison, Prior & Co., bankers
and brokers, may get 25 cents on the
dollar. They are more likely to get
only eight cents.
This was disclosed in the schedule
of assets and liabilities filed in the
United States court today by Receiver
Bushnell.
This amount cannot be estimated"
said Bushnell. "it depends on how
much of the claims the eastern courts
hold to be preferred"
The reports show that the total liza
bilities of the firm are $2,395, 1876, with
paper assets of $2,74S,32O However,
of this about $2,OOO,0OO are worth
nothing.
The real assets of the firm are
about 100000
Bushnell's schedule is another step
in winding up the affairs of Leland
w. Prior, who committed suicide when
his more than million dollar~bond
forgery was discovered.

ters and Barometers.

Before man acquired the perniciOus
habit of sleeping indoors and when
he still practiced the economy of
growing his own coat he. doubtless,
like his four-footed brethren of the
animal world, was by dint of constant
and intimate intercourse with nature
better informed as to her plans for
the immediate future-quicker at re-
ceiving and registering her telegraphic
messages concerning such changes as
might be travelling toward this planet.
Nowadays neuralgia shoots" gouty
"twinges," to say nothing of the
gnawing tooth of rheumatism and
waves of mental depression play their
fiendish part in warning mere man
Climatically and atmospherically. New
ertheless, if he but give heed to the
manner in which such furry members
of his household that have not been
Gnduly pampered deport themselves
he will learn much that shall pront
him.
The present scribe, for instance, says
a writer in the Pail Mall Gazette,
knew cat that in her small person
united all the essentials of an eX-
pensive "Negretti and Zambra." She
was thermometer and barometer roll
ed into one, accurate to nicely and
never liable to get uot of working
order"
Should the spot upon which she
elected to take her constant nap after
but a hairs breadth in the matter OF
temperature she would instantly wake
and make new selection, invariably
in some place where the thermome-
ter registered precisely the degree her
original resting place had been, the
particular temperature experience had
taught her as being essential to her
comfort and well-being, and this
though the human occupants of the
room had as yet been alive to no
perceptible change in the atmosphere
of the apartment.
Nevertheless, puss, such was her IN
ate courtliness of breeding, never fail
ed to call attention to those whom it
might concern to the fact by a plain
tive ''mew," and we feel certain to a
meterorologist her presence and never
failing admonitory hints would have
proved invaluable.
Dogs which are allowed to lead a
natural and healthy existence are re-
markably reliable, in the matter of
weather prophecy; drowsiness and a
disposition to leave their food un-
tasted is the way in which a COM
ing wet weather spell takes most
dogs.
In direct opposition to the canine
inertia displayed at such times is the
nervous and noisy activity of the wood
land squirrel which is wont to give
quite 20 to "a hours warning of an
approaching storm, dashing about the
trees In a ceaseless state of frenzied
agitation, until the expected downpour
descends, when he vanishes into his
water-tight nest with all Imaginable
celerity, even going so far as to stop
up the entrance to his fastness and
court asphyxia rather than "rheum."
