TiLLMAN'S COLLAPSE.

Seldom in the history Of the capitol
has there been such occasion for equal
excitement at the announcement of a
speech as that shown early Monday
morning when Mr., Tillman, the scna.
tor from South Carolina. made his re-
sponse to the charges brought against
him by the president A large au-
dience which had no interest in Mr.
Tillman and no interest in the presi-
dents charges, but merely a passion
for sensationallsm, assembled before
they had had breakfast and by 10
o'clock the galleries were packed and
the doorkeepers were all but exhaust
ed from the effort to keep back the
crowds. Wnen the public galleries
were thrown open the crush made it
appear for few moments that an un-
controllable mob had taken possession
of the capitol and. as women scream
ing and fainting with their clothes
torn were pushed forward into the
ai5les by the crowd pressing behind.
1t looked for short time as though
some serious accident were imminent
Special officers from the police force
were called In to protect the doors of
the galleries which the regular door.
ReeprS were helpless in holding and
1t was only with difficulty that the
crowd was controlled On the appear

he arose to speak there was so much
applause that the vice president was
compelled to suspend his address un-
til the public had been warned that
sucn a repetition would result in the
galleries being cleared. When It was
all over and the anticipated defense

Catania, Jan. 16.-For two days the
populace of Catania mas been in a
state of great excitement over report
that an apparition Of St Agatha, the
protectoress of the town, had been
seen on the summit of Mount Etna.
Those who say they saw the specter
declare that the vision seemed to them
like an angelic dream" st. Agatha
being envelopcd in thin vaporous
clouds through which shone rays OF
dazzling light. while her right hand
was extended as though in sign of
benediction and protection over Catan-
Ia. Because OF these reports, the be-
lief has spread that Catania was say
ed from the earthquake only through
the intercession Of st. Agatha.

say tnat, when the smoke from the
volcano was densest and the sun was

THE GAS DECISION.

In the struggle that is going on all
service corporations, the supreme
court decision of January Is hailed by
most OF the press, says the Literary
Digest as Il clear and wise exposition
OF what can be done and what can not
be done. The court was asked to save
the Consolidated Gas company of New
York from the law passed by the New
York Legislature cutting the price of
gas 10 so cents per 1000 feet. from
$1,00. In reply, after looking carefully
into the finances of the concern, the
court decided that it could pay dlvi-
dends at per cent under the so cent
law, and therefore refused to inter
fere; but at the same time il gave the
company permission to bring another
suit if it found 1t could not make 6
per cent. The court radically revised
the companys estimate of the assets
upon which IL must earn dividends. and
incidentally made the important rul,
ing that "in this case. as there is no
possibility of competition, there should
be no allowance for good will"
The Philadelphia Press estimates in
the following sentences the Importance
of the decision.
NO decision in years has settled as
much on public service corporations
as the New York so cent gas case.
None will be So often cited.
