TIIK ELECTION BILL FIJIIT.
A Warm Debate Oyer the Ballol Bill
Tbe Senate Votes in Favor of the
Wagou, Road Appropriation
Salem, Feb. 4. The senafe to
day settled all doubts as to its
attitude toward the wamiJroad
grants. " After "a J"vrgWou8 ii?oiJ5S;
Blackmail's bill for an appropria
tion of $5000 for a wagon road in
Grant county was passed. The
special committee on wagon roads
has decided to reconsider their
action on the bill for a wagon road
from Brownsville up the Calajiooia
and to recommend an appropria
tion of $")000. The wagon road
bills have all been scaled down,
but a formidable sum will ba ap
propriated for these roads in vari
ous portions of the state.
The house occupied nearly the
entire day in considering the
assessment bill, as a committee of
the whole, and has not yet reached
the end of the voluminous meas
ure, w hich w ill be again considered
to-morrow.
The senate to-day indulged in a
spirited debate on Cogswell's bill
to regulate primary elections in
cities of over 5000 imputation. It
was a contest between the Simon
and anti-Simon men, and the
latter won by referring the bill
with several amendments to the
committee on elections when it
came up on its third reading.
A senate joint resolution was
passed, and concurred in by the
house, requesting Oregon's repre
sentatives at Washington to pre
sent the name of Hon. II. A.
Failing, of Portland, as a man
particularly lilted to fill the va
cancy in th cabinet caused by the
death of Secretary of the Treasury
Windom. The resolution was
unanimously passed wiiiij.much
enthusiasm.
IX THE SENATE.
The senate met at 10 o'clock.
The roll was called and, no
clergyman being present, no
prayer was made.
The reading of the journal was
dispensed with.
Crosno's bill to' assent to the
purposes of the grants of congress
in agricultural colleges was made
a special order for Thursday at L'
o'clock.
The special committee on public
buildings reported that they had
visited the state university, and a
glowing report was given; report
adopted.
TIIIUD KEADI.VG OF III1.1.S.
By Sinclair, regulating the fees
of certain ollicers ; passed, "ii to 1,
Veatch voting no.
By Sinclair, allowing the Coos
Bay & Koeeburg railroad to con
struct a bridge across Cove Bank
slough on Coos bay ; passed.
Cogswell asked consent to intro
duce a bill, the purport of which
is to provide for the holding of
primaries and the manner of con
ducting the same, and to prevent
frauds at such in cities of 5000 or
more. This is to embody the
Simon amenonients, which have
been attached to the Australian
ballot bill. The second reading
of the bill was made a special
order for ."! p. m. ; referred to com
mittee on elec'ionH, with amend
ments. When the Australian ballot bill
came up this afternoon, Fulton of
fered an amendment, providing
that no arrest should be made un
der the provisions of the act with
out a warrant and making it a mis
demeanor to make an arrest
without such warrant. President
Simon stated that the bill being on
its third reading, under the rules,
no amendments could be oflered
without unaniinousconsent. Cogs
well objected to Fulton's amend
ment, but said he had a similar
one which lie wished to propose.
This roused Fulton's ire and he
demanded to know by what right
the senator could object to his
amendments and then offer one of
his own. He denounced the way
the bill had been railroaded along
in the senate, and closed by say
ing: "I suppose the majority
that have determined upon these
amendments have fixed up this
dose of medicine and will insist up
on our swallowing it without a
murmur. Others may do as they
choose, but as for me I will have
none of it." The amendment was
referred to the committee on elec
tions with instructions to report
to morrow morning. The confer
ence committee on the Australian
ballot b 11 he'd a meeting this
afternoon at which only three mem
bers, Fullerton, Raiey and Keed,
weie present. From all accounts
the session wae a very stormy one.
The senators made a proposition
that if the house would pass the
new bill eml.odying the amend
ments of th senate the latter body
would recede and pass the original
bill, but the latter was not to be
reported until the new bill had
been passed by the house. This
proposition was indignantly re
jected by the house conference.
The house conferees w ill report in
the morning that they were unable
to agree.

servance of Sunday (the object is
to close saloons and beer-gardens

OUlTcOSTLY WARDS.
EEI'KNSEs) OK THE INDIAN
CAMPAIGN JI ST CLOSEO.
It font Nearly S.'.OOO.OOO to I'ut
Down an Outbreak tliat Mlglit
Have Been Averted,
Washington', Feb. 4. An esti
mate sent to congress yesterday by
the secretary of war to supply the
deficiency in the quartermaster's
departments tells the story of the
cost of the Indian campaign just
closed. The round eum of $l..'i00,
000 is asked for, the principal
items of which are f9:S5,0Iti for
transportation of troops and sup
plies, and $187,702 for extra cloth
ing, camp and garrison equipage
necessary to till out for the winter
campaign. $70,0(HJ to replace the
stolen horses broken down in the
campaign and for the purchase of
ponies, and $S7,0(K) to cover the
difference in the cost of supplies
purchased for the troops in the
tield and the contract pi ices at the
post from which troops were
drawn. There were cither expen
ses under the .supply department,
that will probably bring the totp.l
cost of the campaign up to $2,000,
000. The sum is sutlicient to have
given the Sioux the $100,0(10 an
nual appropriation promised them
for a period of twenty years.
WAS IT SI ICIDK ?
A Bnnk Cashier Shoot Hluigelf
Th rough the Left Breast.
Skittle, Feb. 4. Chas. Leon
hardt, book-keeper in the Wash
ington National bank, shot him
self in the bank at :! o'clock this
morning, lie had been working
nearly all night, balancing his
books in company with another
book-keeper named Thomas S.
Beals. Suddenly Beals beard a
pistol shot and heard Leonhardt
cry out, "Iv'e shot myself." 1 hy
sicians were called in and found
Leonhardt d shot himself
through the left breast with a re
volver, the bullet passing through
his left lung. Leonhardt insisted
that the shot was accidental, but
later told other stories, as Beals
has also done. It is said that both
young men had been out in com
pany with an unknown young
woman as late as 2 o'clock and
that when they went into the bank
at 2:30 o'clock both were evi
dently under excitement. Both
Leonhardt and Beals now refuse
to make any statement, and the
affair is shrouded in mystery.
Leonhart is 21 years of age and
came here last November from
Auburn, N. Y., where he has
wealthy connections. He secured
his bank position on a letter from
H. W. Seward and Congressman
Payne, of New York. To-night
the doctors think he will die.

OLVMl'IA LKtilHI.AIl KE.
Death's Clammy llan.l Assists the
Eight Hour Bill.
Oi.ymi'IA, Feb. 4. The house to
day summarily killed the eight
hour bill passed by the senate
about a week since. The house
committee recommended the bill
unfavorably and the house en
dorsed its action by a vote of ."'.1 to
7. The houe then took up
Adams' bill to provide eight hours
labor on all public institutions.
Owing to a memorial making a
strong presentation to congress
relative to the need of public land
sutveys in Washington, it called
forth a fiery speech from Ander
son, of Mason, who accused the
congressional delegation of pro
crastination and laziness in secur
ing surveys of public lands. The
memorial passed the house by an
overwhelming vote. Yancy intro
duced a projiosition to amend the
constitution so that the state may
contract an indebtedness in one
per tent, of its total taxable
A'ealth. Putney, of Pacific, also
wants to amend the constitution
so that the state may loan money
on school district" bonds. The
work of legislation has been so de
layed that there is already talk of
a special session after the adjourn
ment of the regular session.
Governor Laughton to-day de
clared in most emphatic language
that he would call no special ses
sion unless some extraordinary
emergency arose. He believes
there is ample time to finish the
business on hand.
A bill was introduced in the
senate this morning' for the di
vision of the state into two con
gressional districts. The bill
provides that the territory now
comprising the counties of Island,
San Juan, Whatcom, Skagit, Sno
homish, King, Yakima, Kittitas,
Okanogan, Douglas, Adams,
Lincoln, Spokane and Stevens
shall constitute the tirst district.
The proiKised second distnet w ill

riety performer and is better known

that he was out of his mind. He
became worse during the night,
and on Monday morning tried to
jump f out a third-story window.
In order to protect Hart from in

A FATAL ACCIDENT.
EIGHTEEN LIVES LOST IN A
PENNSYLVANIA IINE.
The Liberation of an Immense
Body "1 Water Drowns Every
body in the Mine List of Dead.
Hazi.eto.v. Pa., Feb. 4. A terri
ble accident occurred at Janesville
this miming, whereby 18 men lost
their lives. The accident oven red
in slope 10, operated by J. C. J lay
den efc Co. The workinirs is situ
ated immediately under tbo old
workings, known as No. 8, workeil
out some year8 ago and filled with
water. '1 he cause of the disastei
was due lo the drilling of a hole
through the pillar w hich liberated
an immense body of water confined
in the old workings, flooding the
new workings and drowning all
.he men in that jiorticn of the
mine.
A LATER r.KPOKT.
Win Lristin, one of the seven
men who escaped from the mine.
says he felt the wind coining wh n
the men broke through into the
old slope, lie yelled to his com
panions to run lor their lives or all
would be drowned. In a moment
a rush of water came and seven
men barely escaped. The water
rose rapidly and before any at
tempt could be made lo rescue the
rest of the workmen, the watei
flowed in. and in five minutes the
slope, which is 024 feet deep, was
filled to the mouth and IS men
were but ied in a watery grave.
News of the disaster created the
wildest excitement and the mouth
and sloe were soon thronged with
people. 1 lie weather, which was
bitter cold, did not have any effect
toward diminishing the crowd,
and it wasi only after the terrible
result was knoa n that none of the
entombed men were living or could
possibly be reached until all the
water was pumped out of the slope
that the grief stricken friends of
the unfortunate men could be in
duced to mo to their homes. The
firm of I lay den & Co. will pump
the water out as rapidly as the
inacninery placed in position can
do the work. Some of the miners
say it will take four weeks. Many
theories are advanced as to the
cause of the great disaster. Some
charge it to neglect to notify the
workmen ot the dangerous prox
imity of water.
