It is also stated that letters applying for bogus money written by at least one congressman, one candi date for governor aud many federal and civic officers, are in the hands of the authorities. In Congress. Washington. Jan. 9. At 1:30, after spending the session up to that time In routine business, tbe senate went into executive session. Chandler bad tried unsuccessfully to get up his Hawaiian resolution, and Gray had given notice be would call up the federal elections bill this afternoon. Washington, Thursday has been set for the consideration of tho Horn- blower nomination. IN THE HOUSE. Washington, Jan. 9. Tbe Election committee of tbe house by a strict party vote decided the contested election case of O'Neill vs Joy, of the 11th Missouri district, in favor of O'Neill. THE TARIFF DEBATE COMMENCED. Chairman Wilson, of the ways and means committee, opened the debate on the tariff bill. He said: "The American people have given this administration definite instructions regarding the tariff question. The bill about to be considered presents a scheme of tariff reform to be dealt wltb according to the deliberate judgment of (be house. Covering so wide a field of legislation and dealing with so many subjects, the bill must necessarily represent in its details some compromise of oplulon, Any bill passed by congress under tho present conditions, must necessarily represent suoh a compromise. The great commer cial dUtreja which has come upon the country paralyzing so many industries and throwing many thousands out of employment, made tho task of reform more difficult, while it has made the necessity for reform more Imperious At what time could taxes be lessened with greater justice aud greater hu manity than the time when thousands are struggling for the bare necessaries of life, aud when could we, wltb great er timeliness and benefit, strike some of the fetters from production and trade than when production Is suppressed by burdeus aud trade hampered by re strictions?

Burrows, of Michigan, addressed the nouse In answer to Wilson, making the opening speeoh in behalf of the Re publican minority. Burrows said the prostration of busi ness was due to the asceudenoy of the political party pledged to tho destruo tiou of the protective policy. If Re publicans had been successful in tbe election of 1892, public prosperity would have continued. Burrows then took up tbe tariff plank of the last Demo cratic national platform and compared it with tbe S.outh Carolina ordinance of nullification. He then argued at length on tbe question of the constitutionality of tho protectlvo tariff. Tho speaker then took up the free list, and proceeded to argue that the farmer had been espec ially selected for assault and dojtruo tion. Freo iron ore and free wool would result In the destruction of flocks, and dosing of mines, or the lowering of our condition to tbe level of foreign com petttors. He then urgued ftgaldst the substitu tion of ad valorem for specific duties. Tho speaker concluded with an elo quent picture of the present depressed condition of the country, aud appealed to tbe Democrats to ab mdun the policy outlined in the bill. DEMOCRATIC CLUBS In Convention lat Tho Dalles May Split on Olaveland. The DALLES,Jan.9. About seventy five delegates to the state convention of Oregon Democratic clubs, have ar rived in tho city, and trains from tho East will bring about twenty-five more. They were welcomed by the baud and many Democrats of this city. A mass meeting was held at the court bouse at 2 o'clook. It Is sild by some that the session may not bo entirely harmonious on account of tbe division In tbe ranks on question of endorsing Cleyeland. ' t IOWA POLITICS? There May Be Two New Senators from that State. Des Moines, Jan. 9. There are two new rumors afloat this moruiug regard ing the senatorship. Ooo Is that the friends of J. S. Chirks u will spring his name before the final llht comes. An other is that Senator J. F. Wilson will resign Imtuedlutely aud that Governor Jackson as soon as inaugurated will ap point Gear to tho vacanoy. This would withdraw Gear from the present con test. Pelzoto Resigns. Paris, Jan. 9. A dispatch fram Rio Janeriro says Peixoto has resigned. Washing ro.v, Jan. 9. The Hrnzll Ian minister has no news to confirm tbe dispatch from Paris to the effect that President Pelzoto resigned. London, Jan. 9. The Brizlllan min ister here denies that Peixoto has re signed. His Throat Cut. Chico, Cal Jan. 9. A man was found on Bowers' ranch, six miles west of Chico, with his throat cut from ear to car. A small penkuife was found near him, covered with blood. He Is as yet unidentified, but is supposed to be Charles Hart, a laborer. It Is sup posed he suicided, but foul play Is bus pected by some. Exchanged Positions. Denver, Col., Jan. 0. H. A. John. son, the old general freight agent of the Gulf system, has been appoluted general freight agent at this point for tbe Union Pacific, to take the place of Fred Wild, recently appointed general freight agent of the gulf.

Tho Work of Tramps iu the White City. Chicago, Jan. 9. The world's fair Pompeii came last night in a rushing volcano of flame, and huge musses of gothic architecture were soon tumbling into chaos. Probably no more magnifi cent, yet terrify ing spectacle has ever beeu witnessed on this side of the At lantic It was loug after dark last uight wheu belated people, returning from work to their homos lu the south ern suburbs aloug the elevated road, noticed a constantly enlarging column ot firo and smolte ascending skyward in tho east, "The world's fair is on tire" wasthe cry and few indeed of the fascinated watohcrs from thu tralu win dows alighted until the famous terminal at the exposition grouuds was readied. Directly foist thasoene of the frightful tire in the cold storage warehouse, huti dredsof spectators hurried from the train into the celebrated court of honor. There suddenly the con 11 igni tion came into full view, whirlwinds blazed, embere were being carried from the end of tbe court of houor farthest from the administration building, high over the roof of the mammoth liberal arts building, tho largest struoture on earth. The great goldou statue of the republic could be seen lifting her lib erty o.ip defiantly aloft through cloud of smoke aud flames. The fire had been burning less ttian one hour when there was a thunderous crash of falling ttm tier aud a tremendous shout from the crowd announced the collapse of the Peristyle. A moment later aud a ter rific yell from the crowd told that the liberal arts bulldiug was on fire aud the whole exposition was threatened. A dramatic Incident marked the destruc tion of tho Peristyle. Ono of tho lad ders bearing up a group of firemen fell with the columns and ono heroic fire mau went down to death while a num ber of others suflered Injuries more or less severe. Tho Bky was livid at this lime with falling sparks which full upon roofs of the art palace, womeu's building and various state structure?. Every train and street car added momentarily thousands to tho throngs and but for tho terrifying spectacle, It seemed as If the greatest gala night of fire was on, lu all its glory. Tho fire started iu the Casino just east of the agricultural bulldiug aud south of tho Peristyle. The Casino was quickly devoured and the flumes surg ed north on the lop of the perlsty'o nud dropping made a second Hue of fire along the base columns. Tho flumes then sprang through the music hall, whlcli corresponds at north cud of tho peristyle to the casino at the south. While the fire was burning there was one of tho most singular and fascinating sights of the night witness ed. Aloug the top of the perlstylo were ecorces of herolo statues. The spectacle for those people oil the mov ing sidewalk east of tho peristyle was that of a succession of gigantic hum nil beings plunging oue after another headlong luto the waters of the lako below. The origin of the fire Is said to have been reveugo on the part of a couple of tramps. The solitary guard In the music hall said, just before the flames broko out that he kicked two vagabonds out of the building, They left lu the direction of the cuslno aud soon after that, fire broko out and ter ror aud confusion euaued. Feurs of looting added to tho horror of the scene. At 10 o'clock with a possible loss of about $10,000,000 by fire Iu the manu facturers building alone, tbo author ities began to realize that a large element iu the crowd was composed of Idlers who, once started In lawlessness would be difficult to control. Such preparations as could bo hur riedly made were set in motion to re move the goods aud to guard the other buildings, but all such ettorts were mere child's play. The utter hopeless ness of suoh attempts ou such short not lea was made apparent at once. The few officers on guard could do uo more than hopo that the llimea would be speedily stayed, By this tlmo the fire boats' and en gines hud Hiicceudod In utdolug tho flames In tho ashed of the persltylv and on the lower south -ast nldoof the liberal urU building mid hones were "Mertalncd that Hie flrn w.ii subdued, Kill nil .ailit i.niii II II.a if . ... ...a ....

Gov't Report m& ABSOLUTELY PURE promenade on the liberal arts building and tho main Isles of tho bulldiug, bo came a mass of fire. Remorselessly the lire hurried itself thiough tho In trlcacle8 of the big Iron arches in tho dizzy heights above. The opinion seemed general that loss bv water Is even greater than by fire. Federal officers put tbe loss, if the fire does not spread beyond the llbaral arts building, at ono million dollars. On the other hand, estlmttes by people connected with tho looil dlreotory, made the highest figure at $150,000 Aboqt 10:45 a great Iron arch gave way directly above the Frenoh section and falling heavitv, burlod the Frenoh wares beneath the burning pile. All the American exhibits were long ago removed, but tho formalities nf the ous torn house detained the gi .W of for eigners. Supt. Graham of the unnu facturera bulldiug said the Ions ould hardly bo overestimated. "I have feared this ever since the fair olosod," ho sild, "and now It h?oi ni, worse than I over dreamed." The fire department fought with energy and skill but the conditions were against them. A flerco wlud citne over tho lake flinging fiery em bers everywhere, and fanning them In to life every moment. At midnight President Higglngboth am said ho had been in the burning building over two hours, that the roor had burned and fallen, but fortunate ly few exhlhits were in rango of the falling embers. "I should say," said he, "the loss by water would bo much greater than by firo. Total loss to ox lilblts will not exoood $100,000. Of course the loss is serious enoueh' but the fire Is now fairly under control and there is no more to fear. All told the contents of tho liberal arts building did not exceed In value a mjlllon dollars. As to the casino, peristyle, and music hall, there Is no Ios. Wo should not regret their burning, as It was tho cheapest way to remove thorn." Charged With Larceny. As per complaint before Judge Edes ot the City Superior Court. B. M. Wltlierlte charges W. N. Parker and E. A, Payne with larceny ns follews: Recelvlngof three Wltherltes 40,817 lbs. potatoes worth $105,10 and 4oO saoks, 20. Parker & Pane agreeing to ship the same to Rlchet, Roberts & Kerr of Portland and to collect tho abovo sums of them and turn it over to the Wlth erltes. This they failed to do and em bezzled the samo to their own use. Bo runs tho oomplaint. Mrs. Parker got Payno released from tho Portlaud Jail for vagranoy Monday and he came to Salem with her. Here he was arrested last night and will have his trial with Parker, after that gentleman has been trhd for the foresaid charge of obtaining money under false nrotonoos. Parker aud Payne will both be heard tomorrow. There aro a number f farmers who complain of similar Irregular practices. Tho Court Martial. By orders of Governor Pennoyer,com-raander-ln-ohlef of the O. N. G., a court martial will be held In thocapltolat Salomon Wednesday, J m.iOtb, for the purpose of Investigating such caes as may be properly brought before the hoard. If theoominandor-lu-chlefof the Oregon National Guard oould only bo tried by the court-martial for oonduot unbecoming a governor and tnan of sense Its convocation would haye some practical utility, and tho military urm of the stale government would have an opportunity to da a great service to the pooplo.Ashland Tidings.
