FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1895.

THE Senate has adopted a rule limit­

ing

all speeches to five minutes. If this rule had been adopted at the be­

ginning

of the session much valuable

"time would have been saved. The curse of legislative bodies generally is the too common disease of breaking •out at the mouth.

SENATOR STUART'S corrupt practices till has passed the Senate. It is a •copy of the New York law and good as far as it goes, but it doesn't go far •enough. Under it a candidate must make a report of the amount of money he expends in a campaign. The bill has heavy penalty attachments.

REPRESENTATIVE JACKSON, the fanatical fool who charged that a barrel of whisky was kept in the basement of the State House, was fully convinced of his error and made an abject apology. About one man in every hundred who heard of the charge will "hear of the apology, and the smirch will stick just the same.

THE House has passed the Newliouse mortgage exemption bill by a vote of 74 to 18. Under this bill deductions •are to be made from taxation of mortgages not exceeding $1,000, or in other words to illustrate: A man with a $3,000 farm, mortgaged -for $1,000, will only have to pay taxes on 82,000. The "bill will probably pass the Senate and become a law.

L. J. OOPPAGE has published in pamphlet form "The Philosophy of Money or, Some Fundamental Principles Underlying the Financial Problem." The pamphlet has not come under our eye and we cannot say whether his philosophy is that of the gold bug, tt\e silver bug, or the paper bug. Each has a philosophy and each maintains that his i& only genuine blown in the bottle "fundamental principle."

THE city is to be congratulated that the Young Men's Christian Association finally succeeded in obtainining sole control of the building which has been devoted to its use for several years, by purchase this morning at public sale. Itawould have been a discreditable act to have 'permitted the building to have passed into other hands. To have done so would have been the death knell of the Association in this city forever. The Association now has a new lease of life and it is to be hoped that its work for good may broaden until every young man in the city may feel its inlidence.

THIS Congress grows worse as it nears its end. The extravagance to which the House has gone in voting gratuities to employes and to the members themselves may be characterized as but little short of a downright steal. The extra month's pay to employes amounts to a very large item of expenditures: and coupled with this extra conpensation for the employes is $100 to each member. Hereafter it will be enough to put a man under the ban to say that he belonged to the Fifty-third Congress. In neither House is there much recognition of leadership, nor devotion to a definite policy. The party policy of the Democrats in the House is different from that of the Democrats in the Senate, and in each House there is a disregard on the part of a large number of the members of any plan or policy which those in authority may adopt.

THE corrupt practices bill passed by the Senate and which has gone to the House for its concurrence limits the amount which a candidate may expend to securing his nomination and election, requires him to keep an account of &11 his expenditures, and to make a sworn statement as to his expenses before he can get his official commission. The committees which receive campaign contributions are held to a strict accountability for the use which they make of them. The essential features of this bill, as of all bills of a like character, is that it limits expenditures and makes the whole matter a public affair. There are in addition stringent regulations as to bribery, and severe penalties for that offense. New York, Massachusetts and some "Other States have similar laws and they seem to work well. The people are in favor of any measure that will reduce the corrupt use of omoney in elections to its minimum. ,,

THE Republican caucus Wednesday finally settled the fee and salary question and agreed upon a bill which will now go through both Houses and be­

come a law. It is substantially the bill reported favorably by the House committee, with some small increase in the gas belt counties. A fee schedule bill goes with the salary bill. The salaries of the State officers will go into effect Jan. 1, 1890. 15y the bill the salary of the Clerk of Montgomery county is increased from $2,000, the salary he receives under the law of 1891, to $2,800 the Auditor from $2,800 to $2,900 the Recorder from $1,500 to $1,600 the Treasurer reduced from $2,250 to $2,200 and 4 per cent for the collection of delinquent taxes and the Sheriff increased from $2,2.r0 to $2,800. The salaries are not what they should be in this county when the business done by the different officers is taken into account, but then they are better than they were under the law of 1891.

REPRESENTATIVE MOORE'S bill, which more fully defines the powers of cities and towns to regulate and restrain the liquor traffic, passed the 'House by a vote of 71 to 3. It empowers city councils to designate the room or building where liquors shall be sold, and may exclude their sale from the suburban or resident portion of the city, and confine the traffic to the busness parts. City councils also may direct the arrangement and construction of the doors and windows, the location of the bar, the interior arrangement of the room, say what games may be carried on, and forbid the keeping of wine rooms. The bill falls short in that it does not empower city councils to forbid quart shops in the suburban or resident portions of cities. The curse of Goose Nibble is its quart shop and some means should be found to suppress it and all similar dens. The Nicholson bill is likewise a failure in this respect

BIG FIRE IN CHICAGO.

Manufacturing Establishments Burned— Loai About 8250,000.

CHICAGO, Feb. 28.—Four girls were hurt, one of them seriously, property valued at $205,000 destroyed and six lines of street cars tied up for over three hours by a fire which originated on the top floor of the Charles Kaestner building Wednesday morning. The girls hurt were employes of the Lancaster caramel manufactory, situated several houses away from the Kaestner building and never at any time in danger from the flames. Somebody shouted "Fire" and a panic was the immediate result, the frightened candymakers tumbling over each other in their haste to get down the stairs and thence into the street. Ethel Goldman was taken to the county hospital and it is feared was seriously injured internally. Emma Cusick was badly bruised, as were two of her companions whose names are not known.

The building of the Crane Elevator company was saved with difficulty. The loss on this building will amount to $15,000. Besides this the entire stock of the wire department of the company which was in the Kaestner building adjacent was destroyed. Others in the Kaestner building who suffered were: The Charles Kaestner company, milling and engineering machinery, Worthington Pump company, Andrews & Johnson, sheetiron workers, and Friedlander, Brady & Co., knit goods. The aggregate losses of these firms were $250,00®. All were fully insured.

The falling of a wall'of the Kaestner building created a panic in the big crowd of spectators and several were slightly hurt by falling bricks, but none seriously.

SEWER GAS EXPLODES.

Two l$uildini*B Wrecked and Several Persons Hurt in Vittsburch.

PITTSBURGH, Pa., Feb, 28.—Shortly after 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon an explosion caused by sewer gas took place in the basement of the two buildings Nos. 8 and 10 Ohio street, Allegheny, which badly wrecked them and severely injured several people. The buildings are two storiee in height. The second story of No. 8 was occupied by R. 11. Logan's cigp.r factory, in which ten young women and three men were at work. When the explosion occurred the rear portion of No. 8 fell in, carrying with it three employes of the cigar factory—Edith Claybourne, Ina Claybourne and Emma Daner, all of Alleghany, who were seriously injured. There were several narrow escapes in both buildings, but outside of bruises anif slight burns no one was badly injured. The fire department soon extinguished the flames, and the total loss will not be over $3,000. :0''

CONSPIRACY CHARGED.

South Dakota Warrant** Out for Taylor's Friends.

PIERRE, S. D., Feb. 28.—A sensation was caused here Wednesday by the arrest of Charles T. McCoy, of Aberdeen, one of the leading politicians of the state. The arrest was made upon a warrant sworn out by Attorney General Crawford against McCoy. Daniel Tenney, the well-known Chicago attorney and president of the civic federa tion John L. McChesney, a prominent broker of New York, and Charles Wells, of Chicago, who is known to be in close relations with Tenney, The warrant charges thaf the four men implicated formed a conspiracy to prevent W. W. Taylor, the late state treasurer, from paying over to the state the money in his possession January 8, and to compel him to divide it among them.

A VACANT CHAIR.

First Break Oocurs in President Cleveland's Cabinet.

POSTMASTER GENERAL BISSELL OUT.

He Tenders His Resignation Actuated Solely by Personal Reasons— The 1'residvnt Speaks In High Terms ot

His Services.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.—Postmaster General Bissell set at rest all doubt as to his purpose of remaining in the cabinet by tendering his resignation to President Cleveland Wednesday afternoon. As far back as the early autumn Mr. Bissell felt that his law practice at Buffalo required his personal attention, and at that time he notified the president that sooner or later he would be compelled to retire to private life. Nothing further passed between the two gentlemen with reference to the matter until ten days ago, when Mr. Bissell again assured the president that he must soon resign his portfolio.

Denies Reported Disagreement*.

In a statement made by Mr. Bissell to a representative of the United Press he says that he has found the work of the office agreeable, notwithstanding its onerousness, lie savs that he leaves

the department witn regret and adds that his official relations with the president and his cabinet ministers have been most cordial. He denies emphatically the reports of disagreements between the president and his caoinet and asserts that no ministry could in its official and personal relations be more harmonious. The letter of resignation is said to have been brief, and to have been couched-in the usual formal terms. It recites the fact that he deems it advisable to retire from the cabinet, and that he will do so upon the appointment and qualification of his successor.

Wilson to Succeed Him.

There is no reason to doubt that Mr. Bissell's successor will be Congressman William L. Wilson, of West Virginia, the author of the tariff law. It is also understood that Mr. Wilson's name will be setit to the senate to-day. But for the fact that the president intended making Mr. Wilson a member of his official family, a tender of the Mexican mission would, it is said, have been made to him.

The President's Tribute.

Speaking of Mr. Bissell's resignation, President Cleveland said: "It surely is not necessary for me to say that I shall release Mr. Bissell with the utmost regret. All his associates in the administration will feel that they have lost a colleague who In all respects was a valuable factor in their executive labor as well as a compunion to whom they have become greatly attached. I am not taken by surprise, for I have known for sotne time that it was inevitable because Mr. Bissell's reasons for his action were of a personal nature and were inexorable. Still this first break in a cabinet which has been in the midst of many perplexing situations entirely harmonious always actuated by a loyal devotion to the public Interest and pervaded In a marked degree by the personal attachment which such connections cannot fail to create causes us all real sorrow. Much gratification awaits Mr. Bissell in the. appreciation of his countrymen of his splendid and valuable public services."
