in the Fifty-fourth Congress, necessary
for the prosecution of important parts
of the public serviqe, carrying a total
of over seventy-two million dollars,
have been passed, with the exception
of one paragraph, as they were, finally
agreed upon by the last House. Two
of these, the agricultural and Indian.
were considered and disposed of to-day.
The former, approrpiatlng $3,lS2.9oO.

The time allowed for debate on this
bill permitted Mr. Champ Clark to

Companions In Crime, Comrades In Death
Swung at the Same Moment From the
Same Gallows.
Cincinnati, Ohio, March 20. The once
promising lives of fecott Jackson and
Alonzo Walling, the, young dental stu
dents, paid the penalty today on the
gauows tor tne murder of the sweet
faced country girl, Pearl Bryan, of
Green Castle, Ind., and the extinguish
ing at the same time of the tiny spark
of life that had driven her to despera
tion through fear of open shame. Tho
srene was Fort Thomas and the date,
February 1st, 1895. The victim was de
capitated to prevent identification, and
the head has never been located. The
arrests, trials, "confessions' and gen
eral progress to the awful sequel of
today have been largely of the spec
tacular order, especially the closing
hours of the tragedy this morning in
Newport, Ky. Nearly all forenoon
Waiting's fate seemed swaying in the
balance and the 5.000 people with a
plentiful sprinkling of richly-uniformed
militia acting as guards, waited with
interest at - highest tension for the
springing of the fatal trap or the an
nouncement of the clemency extended
by Governor Bradley.
Walling went to sleep at one o'clock
this morning and slumbered unbroken-
ly until six o clock. Jackson slept lit
tle. From that early hour until the
final announcement that both . must
hang at 11:S0, the prisoners sat at the
windows of the jail, facing the crowded
courthouse yard, with every appear
ance of unconcern. On the gallows
neither was deserted by the gameness
that has marked their conduct ever
since they first posed before the pub
lic in the celebrated tragedy.
At 11:40 the double trap was sprung
and they swung in mid-air twenty
minutes before the horrible work of
strangulation was completed. The hour
originally set. was seven o'clock, but
almost as the start was made for the
gallows Jackson made another 'con
fession," In which he said, Walling was
not guilty of "wilful murder." ' Again
