A- case of smallpox was discovered yesterday ai ternoon. Tne victim is Timothy snan ahan, who boards with his brother-in-law, Edward Hennessey, on the second floor at No tin Grove street. City Health Officer W. P. Bunnell made every et- fort to keep the matter quiet yesterday and declined to talk about it. From neighbors it was learned tliat Shana han, who is employed at the Russell &; Edwin factory, has been home ill since last Saturday. At first he complained of a' cold and thought he had the grip. lesterday afternoon Dr Bunnell and Dr J. E. Martin drove up to the house. JJr Martin went in while the city health officer spent the time driving up and down the street. After Dr Martin came out he said the case was small pox. This was between 3 and 4 o'clock in the afternoon and it was after 5 o'clock before Dr Bunnell placed st quarantine on the hous with two po licemen to enforce it. In the Hennessey family are Mr and Mrs Hennessey, one child and the man with the smallpox. The lower floor is occupied by John. Meehan, the owner of the house. There are eight persons n his family. As soon as it was inown that the case was smallpox, Mrs Hennessey and the child left' the house, as am an out one of the Meehan fam ily. These people got away before the police arrived and there is considera ble criticism of .the city health officer for allowing these people, who had come in contact with the case, to go among their friends through the city.

In the words of the offi cer, she was "fighting drunk." She was fined $10 and costs. ' Michael Lynch has been on a spree since last Friday..; His family last evening were obliged to have him ar rested, his conduct was so uproarious.

In his estimation a man could not be intoxicated and walk at the same timeA He was fined $10 and costs for breach of the peace. Yesterday afternoon Detective Ken naugh happened to be standing around Phoenix avenue. He saw John Downs take a pint bottle of milk from a milk wagon and walk off with it. Ascer taining, that Downs tvas not employed by L. A. Ross, the owner of the milk wagon, the detective took him into cus tody.

WASHINGTON, March 4. Tester day was almost a repetition of Monday m the houee. Slowly but surely through the operation of" ceaseless roll calls the conference reports to complete the nec- 1 essary legislation were ground out, and when the house at 7 o'clock recessed until 10 o'clock only two conference re ports on appropriation bills were still undisposed of, the general deficiency and the naval. The Democratic opposi- i tion did not abate and will be contin ued until congress expires at noon to- . day.: ' .',.: ''i?'-i During the debate on, conference re-v ports members on each side got in po lltical speeches, and several times par ty passion flared up. Just before the r6cess bedlam broke loose, and there was' an exchange of high words be tween tyro members on the floor. A personal altercation seemed imminent in the confusion, but was 'avoided by , the Intervention of friends. Jho actual business done during the eight hours of the day session consisted In the adoption of -the conference re-. ports on the immigration, public build ing and sundry civil bills, the refer- ence of the president's veto message of a Virginia claim bill to the committee on , war claims, the adoption of a reso lution to correct clerical errors In the Immigration bill and the passage of a . senate bill to authorize the treasury v department to coin , souvenir coins for the Thomas Jefferson Memorial associ- x . ation. . ' :''-' Ait final defeat of the Aldrich finan cial bill was witnessed In the senate ; when it was displaced by the Phillp pine tariff bill. Mr. Aldrich explained in detail his measure and said that a mall number of men in the senate had , deliberately, with malice aforethought, murdered it, ' One of the features of the session was the fact that for the first time in two years Delaware was represented In the senate. J. Frank Allee and L. Helsler Ball, elected for the long and short terms respectively, appeared In the senate and were sworn in by Pres ident Pro Tern. Frye. Besides the two years that Delaware had been totally unrepresented in the senate there were two years previous to that time when there was a vacancy in one of . the seats. Mr. Ball's term of service will , expire -two years hence, while Mr.' Al lee has font years to serve. The sen ate for the first time in four years hai Its full membership of ninety. In the course of the debate Mr. El kins declared that the Republican par ty had been false to its solemn pledges in three successive platforms with re spect to statehood for Arizona, Okla- . noma and New Mexico, and he said that it was the first time that party had been guilty of. filibustering. He declared that upon the Republican ma jority rested the responsibility for the defeat of several important measures t in the senate. The senate at 6 o'clock took a recess until 8 o'clock. The conferees of the two houses on tle naval appropriation bill reached an agreement at 10 o'clock last night. The senate surrendered on the ; principal Item of disagreement, the amendment relating to the increase of the navy. The provision as agreed" upon provides for three battleships of 16,000 tons dis placement and two battleships of 13, 000 tons displacement and entirely eliminates the provision for cruisers. Senator Tillman caused a flutter in the senate late laBt night by announc- : ing his intention to defeat the naval appropriation bill and the general defi ciency bill. This determination was the result of an announcement from the conference room on the general defi ciency bill to the effect that the house conferees had refused to accept the senate amendment providing for the payment of the South Carolina state claims of $47,245. The senator had a stack of books beside his desk almost as high as the desk, while on the desk was a volume of Byron's poems open at the "Vision of Judgment." "It Is a Just claim and must go in," he said, "or I will defeat both the re- . - malning bills and force an extra ses sion of both houses of congress. I can talk untW12 o'clock tomorrow, and that is all that is necessary for the accom olishment of my purpose." v bargain day 5C m mmimiimp!! BMHinifflinifflinm V
