A bout 250 spectators were present. When
the noose was placed around Higgins'
neck he said: "Good bye" and had be--jun
to repeat the first line of the Lord's
I 'l ayer when the drop fell. The noise of
v.f the falling trap reached the prisoners
on the other side of the jail, and scores
f them shouted two and three times in
succession: "Hang Prendergast." The
murderer was pronounced dead in five
minutes, and after the usual in-
wst the body was given -over
to the relatives. Brief funeral ser
vices were held in the rhapel attached

Higginn resided gathered about the jail

disclosing the presence of 248 members.
W hereupon Mr. Patterson moved to sus

Mr. Patterson stated' that. Qi
had been handed him stating that Mr.

Monday. In view of this fact and of the
further fact that Mr. Bartholdt desired
to be present and narticinnt in tkQ

Mr. Brown, chairman of t.h Hnmrnit.

Fifth Alabama district.
In this case the committee unani
mously reported that the contestee (Cobb)
was entitled to the seat he was occupy
ing, and without debate or division the
House agreed to the resolution as re
ported, The Military Academy Appropriation
bill was then taken up in committee of
the whole.
Mr. Wheeler explained the provisions
of the bill. It appropriates $400,433 a
smaller amount than has been appro
priated for the support of the military
academy for many yeais. The estimates
originally were 399,463. The Secretary
of War reduced them to $465,149. For
the current year the appropriation is
$432,546.
In the course, of the reading of the bill
Mr. Reed inquired of Mr.. Wheeler what
were the items omitted from the bill
which the report, he said, declared to
be very important.
Mr. Wheeler named several, among
them one of 50.000 to make the library
fire-proof. "But, of course." he said.
if the gentleman from Maine will move
to msert it the committee will probably
be glad to act."
Mr. Reed thanked Mr. Wheeler for the
suggestion, and moved to insert a para
graph, appropriating $50,000 for the pur
pose named, but he subsequently with
drew his amendment.
A debate ha ping somewhat of a politi
cal character follrwed, but, without
amending the bill, the Committee of the
Whole reported it to the House with st
favorable recommendation and it was
passed without division.
Mr. Henderson, of North Carolina
chairman of the Committee on Post
offices and Postroads, moved to go into
Committee of the WThole on the Postal
Appropriation bill.
Mr. Reed suggested that there was not
a quorum present and he should object
to the consideration of appropriation
bills.
a division on tne motion showed
ayes, 71; noes, 3. Whereupon Mr. Hen
derson withdrew the motion, and the
House took a recess until 8 o'clock, the
evening session to be devoted to the con
sideration of private pension and relief
bills.

Pittsburg, Marcbj 23.-The dynamite
works of the Acme Powder company, at
Black's Run, fourteen miles above Pitts

blew up this morning, killing two men
and three women, wrecking
Acmetonia, on the opposite side of the

Congressmen vs. Capitalists.
Washington, March 23. The situa
tion at the White House presents one
strong feature of novelty in the fact that
it appears to be the scene of a bloodless
battle just now between the Congress
men on the one hand, the large majoritv
of whom are urging the signing of the
beigniorage bill, and the great commer
cial interests of the country on the other;
for twenty-nine out of every thirty of
the communications coming from them
pray for the veto of the bill. The
uuKrtssmen nave the advantage of per
sonal pressure on the field, but the
Other side is m evidence" in great force
in the enormous number of letters that
burden the Presidential mail and of
telegrams that come so nnmcmnoi a
to keep the wires hot and the White
Mouse operator occupied to his full
capacity. These communicatios by
mail and wire are coming from all parts
of the country and are not, as might be
supposed, altogether of Eastern origin
For instance, to-day there were appeals
for a veto from Cincinnati, - St.
lxmis, San Francisco and . Salem,
Ore. lrginia has also joined the
line, as was made evident by protests
against the bill from the cotton factors
of JSorfolk and the transportation inter
ests there. A very thoughtful presenta
tion of objections to the bill has come
from Richmond. Of course it is mani
festly impossible for the President to
read himself in detail all of these com
munications, but they are carefully ex
amined by Mr. Thurber and any new
point or suggestion on either side of the
uase is orougnt to tne attention of the
President.

Mirage Seen Off Cape Hatter as.
New York. March 20. The steamer
El Norte, of the Morgan Line, which ar
rived yesterday from New Orleans, re-
J . i ...111
porieu a most remarKaDie mirage, or
reflection, seen off Hatteras- on March
18th. On that day G. A. Benson, the
mate of the ship, saw away to westward
a big bank of fog. The sea was smooth
ana tne sun was shinmg.
As he looked at the bank of fog he saw
the "counterfeit presentment" of about
twenty-eight schooners outlined against
the bank, borne were beating north
agamst tne wind, ana some were sailing
south before the wind. Although the
weather was clear, a mist would every
now and then settle down about the
steamer and blot out the picture "of - the
sailing vessels outlinecLon the fog bank.
Then the mist would disappear as sud
denly as it appeared, and the sailing
schooners were seen burring north and
south again.
The spectacle began about 6 o'clock in
the morning and lasted until about 8
o'clock. Many people on the ship saw it.
It was not like an ordinary mirage, but
appeared to be some peculiar fight from
the morning sun which pictured the sail
ing schoonera against the cloud bank.
No one of the schooners whose reflection
was seen was above the horizon. His
first officer said that some of the schoon
ers could be seen with masts and (sails
and hull above the water line distinctly
portrayed, while of others only the ails
could be seen, and some of them were
cut off in the middle and others did not
show their topmasts. .Washington Pxst,

The Commonweal Army.
Massillon, O., March 23. At dusk
this evening two weary travelers, with
bundles swung across their shoulders,
arrived here overland from Twinsburg,
O., and took up their quarters in an
abandoned freight car on the outskirts
of the town. They constitute the guard
of Coxey's great Commonweal army and
are as yet all there is to it. Gen. Coxey
and Chief Marshal Brown have been fly
ing about all day making speeches from
the tops of nail kegs, submitting to inter
views and indulging in calculations for
the march that is to begin Sunday. Gen.
Coxey received nearly a bushel of letters
to-day from all parts of the country,
several of them containing money in
amounts ranging from a 2-cent stamp
up to a $ 1 bill. There were two checks
for $1,000 each and several for smaller
amounts. These pieces of paper are
closely guarded by Gen. Coxey, but it is
the opinion that they are not worth any
more than the ink with which they are
written. Gen. Coxey has received as
surance to-day that over 20,000 men will
reach Massillon before noon Sunday, the
time set ior Deginning tne long march.
Most of the letters to-day containing
these assurances bear i"fake earmarks,''
but Coxey and Brown take (hem in so
ber earnest and are now positive that
this will be the greatest event since the
war. Just now the Commonweal army
exists on paper only.
Yale Defeats the Tar Heels.
Raleigh, N. C, March 23. A special
from Greensboro, N. C, to the News and
Observer says: The University of North
Carolina was defeated to-day by Yale by
a score of 7 to 4. The game opened with
the Tar Heels in the field. Robertson
made a two bagger, took third and was
sent- to the home plate by Oldham's
sacrifice. This ended the fun for the
University of North Carolina until the
ninth inning.
Yale came in and made the "Tar

also failed to score until jthe eighth i
inning.
Score by innings is: Yale, 4 0 0 0 0 0

A system of stamps, similar to the
present internal revenue stamps, are pro
vided for.
Mr. Hatch will probably report the bill
to-morrow, and call it up for considera
tion at the earliest day possible.
Admiral Walker's formal orders direct
him to sail from San Francisco April 5th
by steamer for Honolulu. The announce
ment some days since that the President
would make use of the $250,000 appropri
ated for naval stations in 1892 as soon as
possible in Pearl harbor, Hawaiian
Islands, is fully confirmed by the state
ment of one of the highest officials of the
Government that Admiral Walker goes
to Honolulu for no other purpose than
to establish a naval station of the
United States, and to provide against anv
yvaonjic oLMjujpt uy auy ioreign power
to secure a footing in the affairs of the
Government there. It is understood that
the Admiral will be authorized to secure
the necessary land for the naval station
and to take possession of it. He will
leave San Francisco the second week of
April and hoist his flag on board the
Philadelphia on his arrival at Honolulu.
Admiral Walker will be relieved from
the command of the Pacific station as
soon as his mission is completed. But
the completion of his mission will in
volve the practical establishment of a
United States protectorate over Hawaii
by the occupation of Pearl harbor as a
United States naval station.
There is one circumstance which may
interfere with the main feature of Gen.
Coxey's announced programme at Wash
ington. I has been stated that the main
object of his bringing his army here is
to assemble it on the steDS of the Canitol
on me isv or jviay ior tne purpose of un-r
pressing its views upon Congress. To do
this it will be necessary to first secure
authority from Congress, as there are
specific acts upon the statute books for
bidding the assemblage of crowds in the
Capitol or on the Capitol grounds, or the
holding of any sort of public meet;
ing except the sessions of Con
gress, and the assemblages which are
incident to the inauguration of a Presi
dent. These laws go to the extent of
forbidding organized parades through
the Capitol grounds. The law is also
very strict in regard to the invasion of
the grounds, and when societies are
given permission to march through them
they are required to keep strjctly upon
the walks and, drive-ways. Only on the
occasion of inauguration are people per
mitted to overrun the grounds.
The commissioners of the District of
Columbia have not considered, as a
board, the impending invasion of Gen.
Coxey's army.- Commissioner Ross was
asked what the plan of reception would
be. He is not inclined to look upon the
matter seriously and said: "It is hard
to believe that sensible people will enter
into any such move. If it is a body
J-l X 1 1 ... .

to be supposed that the Govern
ors of the States will arrest its

THE PATRIOT, KOSSUTH.
Action of the Hungarian Diet on Of.
ficial Announcement of
' His Death. '
Budapesth, March 23.-An enormous
and excited crowd assembled this after
noon in front of the Parliament house,
which was strongly guarded by police.
Led on by the students, the people filled
the air with shouts and threats, insisting
that Parliament was not doing sufficient
to honor the memory of the dead patriot.
Finally the crowds made a rush toward
the doors of the Parliament house and a
sharp engagement with the police fol-
l xxie ponce, strongly reinforced,
charged upon the mob and drove them
back, but the wr-itnA tk
determined to force an entrance
and it required a number of
charges before the crowd could be
forced back within a reasonable distance.
Ihe police had great difficulty in keepmg
a passage way for the Deputies when
;u?a,eUbut when ifc was noticed
tnat all the Representatives wore mourn
ing the people became better humored
and cheered the deputies.
Inside the Parliament house there was
a large attendance of Deputies and the
public galleries were crowded with peo
ple either dressed in morning or wearing
mourning badges. When the President
arose to address the House the Deputies
arose and stood in profound silence and
with bowed heads while he announced
the death of Louis Kossuth. He con
cluded his remarks by asking for the
unanimous adoption of the proposals
made py Dr. Alex Wekerle, president of
the council, who at the conference of the
iaoerai memDers of the Hungarian Diet
