The Joint ommittee of congress on the revision of laws is holding meetings over the work of the commission appointed a number of years ago to prepare a codification of all statutes of the United Etates. Senators Fulton. Clapp and Sutherland and Representatives Sherly and Houston are in attendance. The committee has made such progress with its -work that the criminal code has been practically agreed on in the form in which it is to be reported to both houses. Considerable new matter Is inserted by the codification commission relating to details of legal practice Is being eliminated by the joint commission in its final revision because of the belief that it would create confusion and be strongly objected to In both house and the senate.

Squirrel, Russian Ermine, MAY TEST LAW MAKES SIGNIFICANT MOVE Company Has Decided to Renew its Contracts With Newspapers to Exchange Transportation ' for Advertising Spice as Before. The Monon KaUwr.y Company, it is stated, has decidod to make new contracts with newspapers, after Jan. 1, for the exchange of transportation at tariff rates, for advertising space in the papers. This has been done for years by practically all the rail road lines, but the Hepburn rate law, enacted by the last Congress, prohibits the issuance of transportation under such contracts after December 31. When the bill was passed there was some doubt among railroad people, whether or not its provisions were intended to cover such contracts, but the president of the Interstate Commerce Commission recently gave a written opinion that it did. In consequence the railroad companies as a rule, have served notice that they will not issue transportation, and will cancel all existing contracts providing for it. The position taken by the Monon, contrary to the definite instructions of the Interstate Commerc Commission, is not explained by the officials. It probably means that it intends to contest this provision of the law. CLAIM OF SELF DEFENSE Is Entered by James Taylor, Jr., a Young Pennsylvanian Charged With Murder.

Collision of Two Big Liners Takes Place on the Coast of France.

PASSENGERS IN A PANIC FAII D TO PASS IN THE NIGHT AS SHIPS OUGHT TO DO SHOCK OF THE COLLISION WAS OF A MOST TERRIFIC NATURE. Publishers PressJ Cherbourg, France, Nov. 22. De tails of the collision between the North German Lloyd steamer Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse and the British steamer Orinoco show that it occurred at 9 o'clock Wednesday night. The Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse and the Orinoco were outward bound from Southampton, via Cherbourg, for New York and West Indian ports, respectively. The shock is described as having been terrific, causing panics among the passengers on board the two vessels, especially among the emigrants. On the Orinoco three men and a woman were killed, six women and a man were injured and five persons were knocked ' overboard and drowned. Of the two steamers the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse is said to have sustained the most damage, but beyond the fact that she has a hole in one side of her the nature of her injuries has not been ascertained. Four of the crew of the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse are reported to have been killed and 12 injured, but the exact numbers of the killed and wounded on that vessel have not been reported here. The damage to the vessel will be about $200,000. The damage to the Orinoco was confined to her bows. Both vessels remain in the roadstead here. When the collision occurred the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse was steaming at the rate of -17 knots an hour from Cherbourg after having touched here on her voyage out. The commander of the Orinoco claims he was going to starboard of the North German Lloyd vessel, but that the latter held her course across the Orinoco bows, and only went to port of the Orinoco when it was too late. The engines of the Orinoco, it is added, were reversed as soon as it appeared likely that an accident would occur, but she crashed into the starboard bow of the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse, making a breach 12 feet wide. The stern of the Orinoco above the water line was carried away as the vessel cleared after the collision. The shock threw all the passengers on the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse off their feet and the grinding of the Orinoco's bow into the steerage of the German vessel killed four persons. The captain of the Orinoco ordered boats to be cleared away, but the panic on board was general. Some of the crew jumped into and launched two of her boats, and several frenzied women tried to get into them as they were being lowered over the side. One boat was swamped when it struck the water. As soon as the accident occurred a number of small boats from , Cherbourg put out to the scene of the collision and succeeded in rescuing some of the sailors and passengers struggling in the waves, but five of the crew of the Orinoco are believed to have been drowned. Some of the bodies of the persons drowned were recovered during the day. The pilot, Lesage, had just left the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse when the accident occurred. As the Injuries to the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse will make it impossible for her to proceed, the passengers will be transferred to the St. Paul and the French steamer La Lorraine, leaving Southampton and Havre Nov. 24. Barge Sunk, Six Drown. Toronto, Ont., Nov. 22. Six firemen of the barge Resolution from Erie, Pa., were drowned, their boat swamping as they were endeavoring to escape from the barge which was sinking. One boat containing five men reached shore safely. The Resolution sprang a leak in the heavy seas just outside tlie harbor. The rew was un der command of Captain Sullivan. Collision In New York Harbor. New York, Nov. 22. The North German Lloyd steamer Main ' was in collision with the schooner May V. Neville in the lower harbor. Five plrtes in the side of the Main above the water line were stove in' and the schooner lost her bowsprit and head gear. The Main returned to quarantine and the schooner was towed up the harbor. Struck In a Fog. New ork. Nov. 22. While the Fall River steamer Priscilla was anchored in a dense fog In - the East river .a scow towed by a tug struck the Priscilla's stern and damaged the steering gear. The passengers on the Priscilla were alarmed by the crash and rushed oa deck, but were quieted. Bridge Carried Away. Louisville, Ky., Nov. 22. "The Henderson Route" , bridge over Salt river at West Point, Ky., was carried away by high water, interrupting traffic between Louisville, Evansvllie and St. Louis. Accident On the Ohio. New Martinsville, W. Va., Not. 2i. In attempting to cross the Ohio river In a skiff Charles Elsenbarth of Sar dis and L.

Supt. Bailey of Home Telephone Com

pany Says New Conduit System and Building will not Be Completed in March ae Expected. When asked last night as to when the new Home Telephone system would be completed, Supt. Bailey stat ed that it could not be done much before the latter part of April. It was first hoped that the system could be installed and in working order by the first of March, but there has been a delay in securiing building materials for the construction of the new exchange on North 9th street. The company has all the material except the stone which will be used, and the order was sent to Bedford several weeks ago, and the stone was shipped, but the car has been misplaced, and tracers sent out after it. The stone may arrive here at any date and the building will then proceed with a rush. , The entire conduit system has been completed and 105,000 feet of cable has been laid throughout the city, with four miles of ditchiing. The man holes are not yet completed, and the digging of these have been delayed owing to the extremely wet weather, causing them to cave in. When completed, the entire system will have cost nearly $150,000. as tne "boat was going undel- fhe tow. He clung to a piece of driftwood and was reached. Elsenbarth was to have been married to a young woman of Sardis. He was going to the home of his intended bride when he wa3 Irowned. Lake Steamer Safe. Racine, Wis., Nov. 22. The steamer Frontenac. supposed to have foundered on Lake Michigan, arrived at this port. Captain Stewart in telling of the vessel's terrible experience says that after the boat was out of Chicago about 14 miles the storm struck him. Several attempts were made to get back to Chicago, but this was found to be impossible. The wind blew at the rate cf 60 miles an hour, wrecked the skylight over the engine room and did other damage. Went Down In Lake Erie. Sandusky, O., Nov. 22. The barge Athens, in tow of the steamer Pratt, went down in Lake Erie during the storm. The captain and six men of the. crew probably drowned. Captain Mackey of Milwaukee, who sailed on the lake 40 years, was in command of the barge. The Pratt was oound from Escanaba to Buffalo with iron ore. Soon after the storrS struck tho tow line parted. The Pratt was able to ride the storm. Skiff Capsized. Sandusky, O., Nov. 22.

Remonstrance De clared Constitutional by State Supreme Court. ATTORNEYS' RIGHT TO SIGN MUST, HOWEVER, BE PROPERLY AUTHORIZED APPLICANTS FOR LICENSE ENTITLED TO THEIR DAY IN COURT. Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 22. (Spl.) The Supreme Court balds, that the Moore law, providing for "blanket rcoionstrances" against granting saloon 'jcenses tq any and all applicants in township or ward Is valid. The court also holds that such a remonstrance may be signed by an attorney holding separate powers of attorney from each of the voters he represents, which have been sent to him by letter or postal card; that after the remonstrance has once taken effect voters cannot afterward withdraw their names to favor an applicant for license at a future term, and that a sufficient remonstrance, once filed, cuts off all right of the commissioners to issue a license to anybody for two years. Rights of Applicants. But it decides that each applicant in turn may deny that the remonstrance bears the requisite number of names, or that it was really signed by the persons whose names it bears or by their attorney, or that such persons are legal voters or a majority of the legal voters of the township or ward. It holds that each applicant is entitled to his "day in court" to controvert the filing of a legal remonstrance, but if the fact that a legal remonstrance was duly filed is shown, he can not obtain a license. The case of Oliver P. Cain vs. Jonathan L. Allen, appealed from the Owen Circuit Court, was reversed because Cain was refused an opportunity to prove that the remonstrance which had been filed in his case was- not signed by authority of some of the voters named as remoustrators. Five other cases in which the constitutionality of the Moore law was involved were consolidated with that case as to the constitutional question and all were argued together. Argument Against the Law. It was urged against the Mooro law that it denied applicants for saloon licenses an opportunity to be heard, that it provided for suspendiing the liquor license law in townships and wards where the voters remonstrated and that it was not of "general and uniform operation throughout the State." . THIS ACTION IS FINAL Missouri Supreme Court Has Issued a Writ Against a Jockey Club for Ouster. tPubllshers PressJ Jefferson City. Mo., Nov. 22. The supreme court concluded the suit brought by Attorney General Iladley to oust tho Delmar Jockey club from the state by issuing a writ of ouster. Last summer a decision was rendered by the court that the club violated its charter by allowing betting on the races after the repeal of the breeders law. Attorneys for the club filed a motion for a rehearing, and the caBe was kept in court. .. .Thi3 decision, it is said, is Fined for Rebating. Publishers Prose!
