■
FAILED OF A QUORUM AT LAST.
It Is Apparent, However, That the
Inevitable Has Only Been
Postponed.
Washington; April 3.— The deadlock
which has prevailed in the House for the
past week over the Joy-O'Neill contested
election case was broken to-day. The
Republicans refused to answer to their
names, but the Democrats raised a bare
quorum— lo7 to 12— amid some
applause the Speaker announced that the
deadlock had been broken and that the
motion to table the motion to reconsider
the vote by which Joy had been declared
as not entitled to the. seat had been
carried. The Speaker then stated the
previous question to be on the Republican
substitute for the resolution declaring
O'Neill elected and entitled to a seat, the
substitute declaring that be was not
elected and not entitled to bis seat As
the question -was being stated Joy, who
had beeu unseated, came down the aisle
from the cloakroom, bat in band. The
Republicans with hand and voice cheered
their departing colleague. Ten Democrats
and two Populists voted against the
resolution to unseat Joy as follows:
Boen (P.) of Minnesota, Bryan (D.) of
Nebraska, Cooper (D.) of Indiana, De Ar
mond (D.) of Missouri, Harris (D.) of
Kansas, Harter (D.) of Omaha, McKeigban
(P.) of Nebraska, Sibley (D.) of Pennsyl
vania, Morgan (D.) of Missouri. Ryan (D.)
of New York and Marshall (D.) of Mis
sou'.i. The Republican resolution declar
ing O'Neill uot elected to the seat was
defeated— loo t0 23, In addition to those
who voted against the unseating of Joy
the following voted in favor of the resolu
tion adverse to O'Neill's claims: Cooper
(D.) of Texas, Dunphy (D.) of New York,
Everett (D.) of Massachusetts, Geary (D.)
of California, Griffin (D.) of Mississippi.
Hendrix (D.) of New York, Hutchison (D.)
- of Texas. Outhwaite (D.) of Ohio, Pendle
ton (O.) of Texas and Kern (P.) of Ne
braska.
"Weaver (R.) of New York moved to re
. consider the vote.
Outhwaite made the point that it was
an intervening motion and therefore not
in order. After some debate the chair
sustained the point of order and refused
to entertain an appeal from his decision
on. the demand of Lscey (R.) of lowa. Tbe
last vote was taken on the following:
'."' Resolved, That Jobn J. O'Neill was
elected a represtntative to the Fifty-third
Congress from the Eleventh Congressional
District of Missouri and that he is entitled
to the seat
The resolution was adopted, 128 to 28.
There was some Democratic applause
upon the announcement, and by direction
- .of the doorkeeper, O'Neill, who was in the
hall, came forward to the bar of tbe
House and was sworn in.
According to the terms of the special
- order the House, then proceeded with the
consideration of the Hilbon -English case,
two hours being allowed for debate. Cobb
(D:) of Alabama tried to effect an arrange
ment by which the time for debate should
.be extended two hours, but Grosvenor (R.)
of Ohio objected, and Brown (D.) of Indi
ana, chairman of the Committee on Elec
tions, took the floor and made the opening
argument in favor of the Democratic con
testant, Mr. English.
"Reed, in reply, made a very able argu
ment in favor of Hilborn. He said in con
clusion, addressing the Democratic side
of tbe House: "Gentlemen, yon cannot
afford to discredit yourselves twice."
Aftei some further remarks by Wauirh
(R.) of Indiana and Daniels of New York
in favor of the contestee Hilborn himself
. .'.took the floor in defense of bis right to tbe
' seat. Speeches were also made by Bowers
and Loud, of California, in favor of the
• contestee and by Maguire and Brown
' against and the debate closed and a vote
■ was had upon the first half nt the substi
tute of the resolution of the Election Com
mittee declaring Hilborn legally elected
* and entitled to his seat. The first part of
the substitute resolution was defeated by
83 to 130. * .
The next vote was on the second part of
the resolution declaring English not en
- titled to bis seat, eleven Democrats and
four Populists also voted "for the conteftee,
as follows: Democrats— Abbott of Texas,

truce was then declared for to-night, and
at 5:30 p. M. the House adjourned. .

SCOTTISH HOME RULE.
It Will Presently Come to That in j
x „ Parliament.
London, April 3— the House of
Commons to-day James Henry Dalziel
made a motion that while retaining intact
the power and supremacy of the Imperial
Parliament it was desired to establish a
Legislature for Scotland to deal with
purely Scottish affairs. In speaking to his
motion be said that nobody would say that
the House of Commons was so congested
that a new and bold departure was neces
sary. The Government's proposal to ap
point a Grand Committee to deal with
Scottish affairs was only a temporary ex
pedient. The Scottish members of tbe
House bad voted for home rule for Scot
land. They entertained no anti-English
feeling, their sole object being to procure
for Scotland legislation that was impossi
ble under existing conditions. The House
adopted the motion, 170 to 130.
MOSQUITO COMPLICATIONS.
Envoys From the Coast in Confer-

Washington, April 3. —E. B. Seal,
! United Slates Consular Agent at. Blue
! fields, and Samuel Weil, a resident of that
j place, called at the State department to
i day to see Secretary Gresham and explain
! to him the complications on the Mosquito
; Coast, which had caused them to come to
Washington as a delegation in the interest
of the American residents. Messrs. Seal
and Well talked with Secretary Gresham
for half an hour. The Secretary was then
obliged to go to the Capitol and the luter
view was broken off, with the understand
ing that It shall be resumed to-morrow.
IN A SPEAKING PART.
Miss Pollard Appears Once More
on Her Own Behalf.
Her Lawyers Had Hard Work to
Keep Her to the Questions
Asked.
Washington, April 3.— There was a
variation of the order of testimony to-day
< in the.Pollara-Breckinridge trial to permit
1 the introduction of evidence that Colonel
Breckinridge had carried on .a type-^
writteu correspondence with Madeline
Pollard from the House of Representatives
In 1886. The demurrer of the defendant's
lawyer against the admission of this evi
dence brought a delicate case of law before
the Judge. It was conceded that a docu
i ment might be brought into use and a wit
ness questioned upon it in cross-examina-
I tion from which to lay the basis for
! contradiction, but whether the existence
j of a missing document could be asserted
and the defendant < asked whether fie
wrote it was another question — a question
which Judge Bradley decided in tne affir
mative after listening to the argument and
consulting authorities. He held, however,
tbat witnesses could not be asked to give
their recollection of the contents of such
letters.
Accordingly, Miss Louise Lowell, who
conducted a business in typewriting and
! stenography at the Capitol in the year
■ 1886 and who was discovered by the
plaintiff last Sunday, stated that she had
] copied the mysterious letters upon a type
writer for the colonel, and had also ad
dressed for him a package of envelopes to
"Miss Pollard, 74 Upper street, Lexington,
Ky.," keeping the address in a notebook,
which she produced, but which did not
entirely substantiate ber statement, be
cause It seemed to have been used in 1887
! and 1888. BBM
Miss Pollard appeared in a speaking part
! once more to testify that she bad received
i the letters In question. During her brief
! appearance the lawyers had their hands
1 full endeavoring to make ber confine her
! self to their questions, for in her untram
i meled utterances when questioned before
: she scorned some of tne most telling points
! for her side. "*
Thereafter the- programme was a con
tinuance of the fencing between the Con
gressman from Kentucky and ex-Congress
man Wilson of Indiana. Both Colonel
Breckinridge and ex-Judge Wilson are
lawyers of brilliant parts and no exhibi
tion of its kind approaching the thrust and
parry of the two when pitted as examiner
and witness has been heard for years. It
was enjoyed by an audience worthy of its
merits, for besides tbe usual varying corps
of Congressional members and lawyers,
there were well-known Methodist clergy
men in the audience and a retired Judge
of the District Court in a seat beside Judge
Bradley. c
Colonel Breckinridge made denials ofthe
testimony of Miss Lowell, besides contra
dicting Miss Pollard on many points. .....
-Judge Wilson was disposed to drop Into
a vein of sarcasm at tiroes, speaking of the
defendant as a "fatherly looking and per
fectly, respected gentleman." He laid the
foundation for more testimony in rebuttal
by a denial tbat a servant at the fashion
able boarding-bouse where Miss Pollard
bad lived had ever seen her, in his pres
ence, using the work-basket formerly be
longing to bis dead wife, which the col
onel swears be did not give the plaintiff.
Everybody Is guessing to-night the nature
of the new Hue of examination which Mr.
Wilson announced he would take up in the
morning. SHflj

MORE SENSATIONS
New Witnesses; in the
Heath Case.
THE ALIBI WONT HOLD.
What Happened on Judge Harris'
Front Porch
THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER.
Some Damaging Testimony Given
by Mrs. Featherstone, Who
Lived Near By. -
Fresno, April 3.— The alibi which the
defense tried to set up for Reel Terry in
the Heath trial is faring very badly.
Another reputable witness . was put on
the stand to-day whose testimony flatly
contradicted that of Judge Harris, who
claimed to have slept with Terry at the
latter's bouse on the night of the murder.
The witness was Mrs. Martha E. Feather
stone, and ber testimony caused a decided
sensation. 9B_JBSP9@*ll
An impressive quiet reigned in the court
room as she was giving her testimony, and
she . received the, closest attention. Her
testimony is the talk of the town to-night,
and it is realized tbat the political am
bitions of a number of people have re
ceived a check that promises to be per
petual. -;:§s£p§§
Several witnesses were put on to show
that E. J. Bt laud, Mrs. Palmer's divorced
husband, was at her ranch near Fresno
several times between spring and fall of
1892, contradicting Boland's testimony to
the contrary.
Homer Palmer, son of Mr 3. Cora Palmer,
corroborated bis mother's testimony, lie
testified that he lived on his mother's
ranch in 1892, and was acquainted with E.
J. Boland. He saw bim at the ranch on
August 28, 1892, about 11:30 p. M. His
mother afterward drove to town with him
that night in the phaeton. . He did not re
member when Boland bad been there be
fore. His mother was at home the next
morning.
Mrs. Featherstone testified that she
lived on 0 street at the time of the
murder aud could see Judge Harris'
house and front porch. Her family
consisted of herself and her nephew,
Tup Malone. She beard the shooting
and saw some one run across the street
rapidly. Presently a buggy came up and
stopped in front of Judge Harris' house.
Witness went nut on the porch and heard
Judge Harris' voice on the other side of
the street. Then a hack drove up and two
men got out. After a few minutes the
hack drove away and a buggy followed a
little later. Not long after this the buggy
I returned and was again driven away.
The witness was closely cross-examined,
but her testimony remained unshaken.
She said that while it was light she did not
believe she could recognize any one across
the street. She had counted five shots.
Her nephew had gone to a drugstore, but i
she afterward told him and Mrs. William j
Fa'ney about what she had seen that night
with the exception cf seeing the back. It
was a few minutes after the shooting that
she saw a man coming across the street
I toward her house. " After remaining at the
window twenty-five or thirty minutes she
went ou to the porch. A buggy was stand
ing before Judge Harris' bouse and there
were two or three men on the porch.
"What did the men do?" was asked.
"Tbey talked for a short time, and then
the two went into tbe housu and the back
came up."
Tbe hack, containing two men, came
from Tulare street, and turned up 0
street. It made a circle and stopped in
front of the buggy. Two men, whom she
could not recognize, got out and walked
quickly to tbe porch without attempting
to walk softly.. When they got there they
met other gentlemen, and went into tbe
bouse. The men in the bouse came out
and met the others, and they all walked
into the bouse. They were laughing and
talking on tbe porcb before they went into
the house, where they stayed five or ten
minutes. She beard voices, but could not
distinguish words. She recognized Judge
Harris' voice, but could not be sure about
what he said. There was no attempt to
conceal their presence or to talk in _ sub
dued tone. '
After Mrs. Featherstone's testimony
more reputable witnesses were put on the
stand to prove that Boland had been at
the Palmer ranch In July and August.
J. E. Baker, a newspaper man, saw a
slight stain on McWhirter's shirt, near the
bullet-bole, which might have been a
powder mark. He saw none on the un
dershirt, however.
Court then adjourned till to-morrow
morning. ■'■'

for the year of but 183, which, in view, of
the financial surroundings of the year, the
extra heavy loss by death and suspensions,
evidences that good work has: been done

gheny began at Sewlckley at 9 o'clock.
On the road to Allegheny the array was
well received. '.' All the schools were dis
missed for the forenoon, and the boys
crowded but of town after the Common
weal, cheering and singing. The road lay
along the railway, and every passenger
train was cheered by the men, and the
passengers waved their handkerchiefs iv
return. The whole progress is looked on
by the leaders as an ovation. In view of
the new contingents expected, the big tent

MEN WHO ARE ALWAYS BUSY
Paine's" Celery Compound Brightens"
': the Eye, Increases the Appe- v-V
tite, Restores Sleep, Regu- ;
lates the Vital Organs. :
Under the stress of social or business
duties, or both, how few business men find
time to properly repair the waste of ex
cessive mental labor and close confine- •
ment. .
': Tne result of this neglect is plainly to be
read in' the care-worn, nervous faces and
physical poverty of the average; business
man one meets. "
But Paine 's celery compound brightens ,
their eyes, increases their appetite, causes'
good digestion and regular action of the
organs of assimilation.
Much so-called, overwork of business
men is the overwork of worry, care, anxi
ety, haste. These make the severest drafts
on their vitality. Those who suffer from
nervous debility, mental depression, sleep
lessness or dyspepsia find Paine _ celery
compound a powerful restorative. It regu
lates ttie liver and kidneys, cleanses the
blood and feeds the neives and nerve
centers all over- the body. . .Recovery from
disease's of the liver, kidneys and stomach
by the aid of Paine's celery compound is
lasting. It is the greatest of all modern
restorative agents.
Paine _ celery compound is prescribed .
by physicians who differ in mnpy other
things, but agree in estimating highly this i
greatest of remedies for curing diseases of
the kidneys, rbeii-iaiibiu, gout, dyspepsia.
Bright -disease and stomach disorders due
to a deranged nervous system.
