the open switch aud crashed into the other
two engines. The engineer reversed thelever
and all the men jumped ofl, so that no one
was hurt, but all three engines were piled

'vill be pretty heavy.

ber of 200, demanded the reinstatement of

a committee will meet at Houston, Texas,
some time during this month.
A committee appointed by the Federation
ot Labor called upon President Harrison

Attorney General the matter, which had been
brought to his attention by a former commit
tee. He had not yet heard from him. He
expressed himself as favorable to the inter,
ests of the. working men, and said that he
would insist on the strict enforcement of the
eight-hour law.
nE WILL WHEEL NO MORE.
Harrison Warner I)te at III
Home In
Zanmlllr, Ohio.
Harrison Warner, of Morgan county, the
man who created national reputation for him
selt last summer by trundling a wheelbarrow
from Zanesvillcto Baltimore, Md., and back,
has died from old age and exhaustion, super
induced by his long journey. J
Mr. Wurrier leftj Zanesville April 21, and
traversal the distance of 507 miles with his
wheelbarrow, arriving iri Baltimore June 28.
He made frequcntstops on the journey. He
remained some time, and then started lor
home by rail. He was lorn in Baltimore
October 1, 18"L In 1M9 he left Baltimore
and started for Oiiio, then a comparatively
new country. There were a number of ad
venturous spirits in his party. Affer many
thrilling incidents, in which Indians and wild
animals figured, the party reached Morgan
county, Ohio, where they located. Warner
apprenticed himself to a shoemaker, and twin
became an efficient hand, and made money
rapidly. He married Miss Rebecca Coleman,
who, to quote Mr. Warner's own words, "was
the prettiest girl in Zanes ville.'V
He engaged in business for himself in Mc-
Connellsville. Eleven children were born of
the union, nine of whom are living.
Warner lives in McConuellsville now
Xlrsv.I
withl
several of her children. Their dependents '
ore forty-five grandchildren, thirtyfive great :
grandchildren, and fifteen great-great-grandchildren.
In 1811 Mr. Warner went to Wash
ington from his Ohio home to see the elder
IIarrion inaugurated. In I's'J he made a
wheelbarrow journey similar to the last one.
The wheelbarrow which the old man trundled
from Ohio weighed thirty-eight pounds. All
the things necessary for the journey, such aa
clean clothing, brushes and combs, etc-, were
placed in the locker. Painted on each side of
'.he ftarrow were the words. "Harrison Warner,
need eishty-nine, Malta. McConuellsville,
Ohio. The world-renowued pedestrian en
route to Baltimore. Md." i
PLAGUE-STRICKEN.
4 Small Town In Sew Jmy Ravages!
by a Malignant Dleeaa.
In the village of Hamburg, S. J-, with a
population of M there has been no less than
V cases of malignant dysentery within the
last two months. Many of the inhabitants in
the little hamlet nearby have-also suffered
with the plague and nine died.
In Hamburg, where the disease is said to
have originated, its ravages have been the
greatesL Twenty deaths have occurred. The
dieae, which has bathed, the physicians, is a
contagious, malignant or spec lie dysentery.
A doctor says: i
"It was unmistakably a plaroe f epidemic,
contagious dysentery, and nt of cholera, a
some suppose." .
Others believe that the diea is a specie
of cholera, sneh as was predicted woofd fallow
the general epidemic ot grip !t spring. The
premonitory symptoms wre irregularity of
digestion, loss of tpitite, freat thim and
colicky uaina, followed by the usual aymptota.
The patients bled profoc!y iatsrrt.aH and
died trom sheer exhaustion.
Right in the heart of Hamburg there is a
foul pigpen, oo th edge f a pond, ar. 1 within
10 feet of a large creamery. For tear it has
not been cleaned out, and the 51 been
accumulating daring all this time.

TiiEWKOF CONGRESS.
A Review of What Fas Been Acton
plished During the Session.
Among lb Mm of Ullla Piurtl in
hoi Importance firing
t hr m Into Market! Promlnrnrf.
The total number of act pa-ed during the
first session of the Fifty. first Congress docs
Hot fall far short of the 17 passed by the last
Congress including both of its eitn, the
first of which did not cad until October 2n
From the midst of th- great mass of bills en
acted at this session there are several whose
importance brings them into marked promin
ence. First of these, although the last to be
come a law, is the new tiriff. In connection
with the new tariff law two other bills of im
portance have been enacted. The new customs
administrati ve law, designed tu prevent under
valuation and to mate duties uniform at all
ports, and the bill providing for the classifica
tion of worsted cloths or wuoHenk Next
would probably occur to everyone the bill
pruvidir.g for the mouth'y purchase of 4,.Vs,
000 ounces of silver, which was needed t
provide the increase of currency necessary to
meet the growth of population aud trade, and
the loss of circulation of the national banks.
The dependent and disability pension law ia
the next. This measure is in the tiature of a
compromise, and while it largely increases the
expenditures of the Government on account
ot pensions it is regarded as a long step in the
direction of justice. Over eight hunc'rrd bills
have been enacted for pensions to individuals.
An important bill, which has become law,
providea for the employment of over six hun
dred clerks in the Pension Office to adjudicate
cases arising under the new pension law. No
one knows as yet exactly how much the ex
penditure for pensions will be iucreaned undt
the new law, estimates varying from 25,000,
000 to $75,000,000.
This Congress has also passed a bill, which;
is now in conference for the relief of the Su
preme Court a measure of the utmost im-
Eortance, since the Supreme Court is now so
locked with cases that from three to four
years must pass before a decision can be ex-)
pee ted upon any appeal taken to tL Two new
States, Wyoming and Idaho, have beeu added
to the Union and provision has been made for
theorganizat:on of the Territory of Oklahoma
There is now an unbroken line of States front
ocean to ocean. The other measures of pri
mary importance Hissed by the Congress are:
The anti-lottery bill, the anti-trust bill, the
original package bill, the meat inspection
bill, the land grant forfeiture bill, the bill to
prevent collisions at sea, the Chicago World 't
Fair bill. !
This Congress has also provided for con.
tinuingthe policy of developing the new Navy
by making appropriations to add to it threa
line-of-battle ships, one protected cruiser, otio
torpedo cruiser,
er, and one torpedo boat. Within
the past few days Congress has also increased
the appropriations for the Navy by the sun
of $1,000,000 for the purchase of the product oi
a nickle mine in Canada, which foreien
nations were eagerly seeking because of .thq
result of the recent tests at Annapolis, whicli
showed that armor made of steel, alloyed with
nickle, has resistance to projectiles superior
to any of the armor with which foreign navies
have been clad at enormous expense.
A number of measures cannot be na yet
ranked in the above category of enactments.
Most of these are bills which have passed the
House but which failed to get through the
Senate. One of these is the Federal elections
bill. Amonir other important bills which
passed the Il -ise but not the Senate are
The national bankruptcy bill; the compound
lard bill; to prevent the product of convict
labor being furnished to or the use of any de
partment or upon public works or buildings;
to transfer the Revenue Marine Service to the
Navy Department! constituting eight hours a
day's vork for employees of Government con
tractors and the eight-hour back j ay. bill.
The most iniportan of the bills which have
passed the Senate and upon which the House
has failed to act are the shipping and subsidy
bills; for the i-nprovement of St. Mary's Kiver
and Hay Lake Channel, which is a measure
of immense importance to the commerce on
the lakes, and providing for a monument to
General Grant at Washington.
Among the most important bills defeated
this session are the Blair educational bill,
which met its fate in the Senate, and the in
ternational copyright bill, which was defeated
in the House. Motions to reconider the de
feat of these measures are pending and will
be discussed at the next session.
The session has been remarkablv fertile in
investigations by the House. First, -4 hero
' came the investigation of the Ohio ballot-box
forgeries. Another investigation iaofchargea
' made by lUpresentative Cooper, of Indiana,
1-that the Pension Commissioner. Gen. Kaum,
had promoted clerks who bought stock in a
refrigerator company, of which he was presi
dent. A retrt will be made at the next ses
sion. The murder of Colonel John M. Clayton,
of the Second District of Arkna, caused an
investigation which resulted in the unseating
of Breckinridge.
The whole civil service system is under m-
vestication. and a report will probably be
made at the next session. The committee
have report d, censuring Civil Service Com
missioner Lyman, upon the charge that he had
promoted a relative who had -stolen examina
tion papers, but no action has len taken by
the House. The defalcation of Silcott caused
another investigation, which resulted in a
rule making the Sergeant-at-Arm the dis-
burning officer of the House. A sub-eommit-
tee of the Judiciary Committee is still pur
suing a searching inquiry into corrupt prac
tices amone employes of Federal Courts. A
joint committee is studying abuses in the Im
migration laws. The seion closes with an
investigation into the conduct of the House
Postmaster.

FOR A POSTAL TELEGRAPH
Poalmaater fieneral Wan ansalter'a Finsl
Argument. j
Postmaster General Wanamaker has sent j
to the House Poatofhce Cemmittee, under dnte ,
of September 2-th, a long letter, intended
a final argument before the committee in favor i
of the postal telegraphy scheme which he !
submitted to the committee, and with regard
to which he has heretofore been heard. In
this letter the Postmaster fieneral reviews '
the argument heretofore made in favor of the j
establishment of a limited poul telegraphic i
system, and gives additional illustrations and-j
explanations of the benefita to lc derived j
from the propo-l plan. He aaserts that so
far from the system causing a loaa to the tde- j
graphic companies, the Western Union orany j
other company, which ent rci into a contract
to do the government's telegraph business !
under the arrangement proposed by him, j
would make money through the largely in- j
creased business which would be caused by j
cheap rate. Extract from a large number j
of newspaper and from petitionaof working- j
men are given in refoUtion of the statement
that there was nopublic demand for achang. j
The Postmaster General writea at length of
the ad vantages which would accrue from a j
combination of the postal and telegraph bui- j
new of the country. j
Savs the Postmaster General: Iti a pro- :
position simply to dovetail totrether two great
machine, ao that one shall do butineas equit
ably, and by that mean make more, money
(which shall be willingly acrorie.i to it by
Ihe people U the other to otilire it preaent
skilled and faithful energy to helps-apply the
people with atill better means of -. uu nida
tion furnished sat ill more cheaply."
In etmclusion, the Poatmaater General an
nounce hi Intention to keep the matter be
fore the committee In strong confidence
that it will not be long before the commute;
