House bill No. 210, '"the pilot bill,"
which passed the house unanimously
on the 5th inst, passed the senate
about the last thing Triday night.
The full text of tho bill was pub
lished in The Astobiax of the 6th
inst. One feature of tho bill is the
empowering of the governor to ap
point the board of commissioners.
This will rather interfere with the
action of the legislature in joint con
vention last Thursday, when it elect
ed Messrs. Brown, Wilson and Lein
enweber. If the pilot bill is approved
by the governor, as it probably will
be, and thus becomes a law, his ex
cellency will have the appointing of
the board.

New 1'oee, Feb. 19. The trunk
line executive committee and central
t allic a'sociation at Commissioner
Fink's office have adopted the fol.
lo.ving resolutiens:
Whereas, Tho executive committee
of tho trunk line commission and
central traffic association and other
members of the joint committee con
vened in joint meeting for considera
tion of the bearings of the law
regulating inter-state freight and
passenger traffic upon classification,
tariffs, methods, etc., the joint com
mittee hereby adopt the following
resolutiens:
Resolved, That freight and classi
fication of passenger fares on rail
ways comprising the joint committee
be at once examined and revised in
all respects when found not to con
form to the law:
Resolved j That the freight rates
committee, the freight classification
committee and the passenger com
mittee be appointed by the chairman
to conduct said revisions, and that
each of the committees consider such
formulated recommendations to such
amendments to rules and regulations
as may be found required to concur
in uniform application of the law to
thosubjects referred to them, respect
ively; Rcsolccd, That said committees re
port their recommendations as speed
ily and fully as practicable to the
joint committee, which shall then be
promptly convened to consider and
act upon same.
It is stated also that before the
question passed it was considered
that it had decided to recall them.
It will make no discrimination except
in the ease of ministers and mission
aries. The system of pooling was
also incidentally to ached upon, bat
nothing definito was done in the
matter. The committee will meet
again to-morrow. The folio .ving
roads were represented by one or
more general officers of each: Penn
sylvania, Richmond & Danville;
Lake Shoro & Michigan Southern;
Cleveland, Columbus & Cincinnati;
Indianapolis & Grand Trunk; New
York & Now England; Nickel Plate;
Michigan Central; Chicago &
Northwestern; Erie; New York

a number of others. Commissioner
Blanchard of the central traffic asso

Louisvii:LE,Feb. 19. The Courier
JournoTs special from Sharpe, Mar
shall couuty, in the southwestern part
of the state, relates the discovery of
a cave by two young men, while pre
paring a .piece of new land for a crop.
partial exploration has developed the
the fact that the cave is made up of
many rooms to a great extent. A
complete exploration will be impos
sible until certain large rocks are
blasted or broken away. In one of
the chambers were fonnd two hu
man skeletons, and about six hun
dred dollars in gold and silver coin
and a quantity of silverware. This
newly fouud cave is believed to havo
been a hiding place, during tho late
war, of a baud of guerrillas known as
"Bloody Bill Grady's gang." These
maurauilers were attacke'd near Ben
ton, Marshall county, in 1864, and all
but two were killed. These two es-
two escaped, and going, as it i3
thought, to the cave, quarrelled over
the division of the spoils of the gang
and following tho murderous bent of
their inclinations, shot and killed
each other. Steps will be taken fpr
farther investigation of tho cave and
its former occupants. It haB
also been hinted that tho cav
ern was most likely the head
quarters many years ago of the
notorious John A. Merrill, who
robbed and mnrdered people of this
portion of Kentucky and the neigh
boring state of Tennessee.
IXDIAKA TKISOX INVESTI NATION.
LouisviLTiE, Ky., Feb. 19. For sev
eral -days a committee from the
Indiana legislature has been
investigating the affairs of the
southern Indiana state prison at
Jeffersonville and tho observations
of the investigations given to the
press have been anything but flatter
ing to the management. The cells
are badly kept and the finances,loose-
ly managed. To-day Captain Andrew
Jackson Howard tendered his resig
nation which was accepted by the
board of directors. It was developed
later that Howard's accounts were
largely in arrears. Assistant state
auditor John W. Coonse, who is an ex
pert accountant, has been investigat-
ing the booka of the prison in con
nection with tho legislative committee
of tho state. Howard's defloiency
will probably amount to botwesn fifty
thousand dollars and one hundred
thousand dollars. It is aaid also that
the committeo will report that groat
inhumanity has been p'raoticed upon
prisoners under Howard.

The only change from the previ-

arose. The ballot showed no tenden

beginning to realize that they are in

clared himself ready to withdraw

Milwaukee, Feb. 19. The Chicago
Milwaukee & St. Paul railway has

an apparatus for heating by steam

it has not yet stood the test of severe

New York, Feb. 19. A seveie rain
storm prevailed bore yesterday, in
creasing in severity towards night.
At six o'clock last evening it was ac
companied by lightning. One of the
bolts struck a large, four-story build
ing on the American cotton docks of
Tompkinsvilie, Staten Island, setting
fire to a number of cotton bales on
the top floor. The burning building
contained about ten thousand bales
of cotton. The loss is about $350,000,
which is fully covered by insurance.
GERMAN POLITICS.
Berlin, Feb. 19. The Prussian
provincial governors have issued cir
culars advising officials of the unusu
al importance of the coming election
for the reichstadt and urging them
to refrain from doing anything to as
sist the opponents of the government.
The ministries of the other German
states have adopted a similar course.
The national liberal committee of
Lubeck ha3 sent to Bismarck a copy
of a placard posted on tho walls of the
city by progressionists, quoting from
a pretended manifesto of the emperor
the statement that there was no war
impending. Bismarck immediately
telegraphed in reply, which was pla
carded throughout Lubeck, station
that the alleged declaration of 1 Ik
emperor was an absolute invention.
The Post denounces tho lying meth
ods resorted to by the progressionist
center members. Tho latter, it says,
adhering to the triennate, are es
pecially assiduous in their efforts to
reduce the importance of the Popo's
declaration to Catholics and conserv
atives. Tho Catholic movement is
certain of triumph.

BUILDING AND LOAN ASSOCIATION.
The Astoria Building and Loan As
sociation will organize to-morrow
night. Though new here it is no ex
periment. In tho one city of Phila
delphia alone, this system has built
140,000 comfortable homes. The idea
is one that needs no ''boom"; it is a
plain, common sense application of
the ordinary suggestions. of saving
and economy. The 825 yeu: spend
for rent, comp unded, will amount in
sen years to nearly 3,000. This
83,000 would enable you to buy a
good home; tue building and loan as
sociation is organized for this pur
pose. The association is simply jx cooper
ative bank, the essentials being good
security and thorough business
methods. The man who wants to
Bave a little of his salary to buy a
house with is given an opportunity
to invest; the man who wants to
build can borrow sufficient to build.
When the association is organized
each member can take as manyshares
as he or she wants, not exceeding 25.
On each share SI a mouth is paid.
At monthly meetings loans are made
to the highest bidder (who must be a
member) for tho amonut, whatever it
is, to be loaned. Loaus are made in
small sums. The borrower gets
what ho or she bids for, minus the
interest This interest, with other
accruing moneys, may again be put
up and bid for as a loan, the same
evening. Loans may be paid back
at tho option of (he borrower any
time within soven years. Of course
the less tho time the loan is used the
less will be the interest charge.
Rightly managed the investment
is a saf6 ene: it encourages thrift,
stimulates building, helps to build
up the town, makes times livelier,
tends to create an independent class
of home owners instead of house
renters and offers the same induce
ments to a man or woman to build
their own house that the mutual in
surance societies do to a man to in
sure his life.
These associations are "banks with
out vaults.'' There aro no salaries
except a nominal one to the secretary
no expenses but hall rent and stti
tionery, and no money is allowed to
lie on hand unused. Every dollar
must be oarning something. It is an
aggregation of lenders, depositors,
borrowers and builders, and our
readers are invited to look farther in
to the plan and judge for themselves.

THE VERY CLIHAX OF GALL.
Every year, usually about the time
the spring salmon "straight goods"
are the straightesfe and springiest,
a gentle, meek-eyed, low-voiced man
comes casually in and after announc
ing that he is the traveling agent of
Dunn, Brown & Co., mercantile men,
he asks what is your maiden name,
front name, age,-paternity, politics,
and religion; if married or single and
how you like it; where born; parent's
name; how long in business, part
ner's name; did you over fail; if so,
where, when, and for how much; on
what basis did you settle with your
creditors; do you owe anybody any
thing; do you own any property; are
you insured; how often do you take
stock; what do you consider yourself
worth after paying all just debts and
liabilities; what did you have for
breakfast; do you smoke, chew, or
play seven-and-a-half; what were
your sales, last year; your receipts;
who do you buy your stock from;
how do you pay, cash or ninety days;
what freight rates do you pay; havo
you any borrowed moneyj.if sold out

do you own this building; what is it

etc., etc.
The weary languor that overshad
ows his face when he asks these ques
tions is a clever bit of acting. If he
betrayed any cariosity or anxiety
about it he wouldu't be so nniformly
successful; but he asks all his little
personal questions in sueh an of-course-you-will-answer
sort of way
that tho victim is usually betrayed
into a correct reply.
What True Merit Will Do.
The unprecedented sale of Boschee's
German Syn'p within a few years, has
astonished the world. It is without
doubt the safest and best remedy ever
discovered for the speedy and cnectual
cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest
Lung troubles. Jtacts on an entirely
different principle from the uual
prescriptions given by Physicians, as it
doe? not dry up a Cough and leave the
disease still in the system, but on the
contrary removes the cause of the
trouble, heals the parts affected and
leaves them in a purely healthy con
dition. A bottle kept in the house for
use when the diseases make their ap
pearance, will save doctor', bills and a
long spell of serious illness. A trial
will convince you of these fact:. It is
positively sold by all druggists and
general dealers in the land. rtiee, TJcts.,
