the exceptlcn of Edwin Forrest , who was
beaten by O. .Kllluen by tlneo votes. Tlio
delegates to go io Chicago are Robert E.

combine frequent direct charges wcra m-ido
that Us members were hontllo to the admln-
lotratlon and were In favor of free silver ,
but they succeeded In conducting their cam
paign without committing themselves save
In the general endorsement glvni the ad
ministration In the platform adopted.
The platform endorsed the administration
of Grover Cleveland , particularly the bold
Dtand taken en the Venezuelan question ,
the ennunclntlon of the Monroe doctrine being
declared a correct Interpretation of trUe
Americanism ; expressed sympathy for these
engaged In the battle of freedom for the
Island of Cuba , and cordially Indorsed the
expression of that sympathy contained In
the J'lnt resolutions of tlin senate and house.
The plank contained In the democratic na
tional platfdrm of 185G and directed against
the know-nothing party of that day Vas
put In the resolutions. This declared that
a political crusade In the nineteenth , cen
tury ngalnrt Catholic and foreign bom citi
zens ID contrary to the genius of our In
stitutions and cannct hatoo saverely con
demned. There was a significant absence In
the platform of any expression on the sil
ver question.
The American Protective association plank
was not vlgoroun enough for Mr. Dennis
Callaghan , nnd he made a vigorous but un
successful fight to have substituted for It
n sat of rcs'lutlcns denouncing the Amort-
can Protectlvo association In the bitterest
language. The endorsement of the adm'n-

FrUNKFOnT. Ky. , March 12. The ono
thing that seems to be settled by today'a
doings In the joint assembly Is that Ken *
ucky will have but ono representative In
ho United States senate from March 4 , 1SD7 ,
vhon Senator Blackburn's term expires ,
until at least January , 1S9S , nhen the next
cglslaturo can meet and fill tbo vacancy.
There was no lack of apprehension of re
newed danger of an outbreak. Mayor Julian ,
with a force ot pollcs , cleared the rotunda
of mere curjoglty hunters , but In the cloak
rcomn andelsewhere were enough men to
mvo done much harm If the occasion had
arisen. Perhaps the apprehension of dlf-
Iculty tended to produce unusual Belt-re
straint , and BO the scene ended , without
other turmoil than that of debate. The
newly Installed republican In the house did
not qualify before tlio joint assembly met
and so was not a factor. The republicans
adopted the tactics of breaking the quorum
nnd thus brought from Lieutenant Governor
Worthlngton tlio ruling that seventy mem
bers constitute a quorum necessary to elect
a senator. So long as this ruling stands no
election can bo had , except by breaking
over party lines.
Shortly after the house opened nopresent-
itlvo Kaufman walked down the nlslu and
> cgan to gather up the papers about his
desk. Mr. Dulilnp was not present when
work was begun.
SENATORS CAME EARLY.
Senators James and Walton , who were
msoated by the senate yesterday , wore In
: ho house chamber to be on band when the
ont ! session begins.
As soon as the democratic leaders found
Hint James nnd Walton had secured admis
sion to the house chamber they raised a
> roteet. Mavor Jullaiius asked to see
; hat the men wore rsmoveJ peaceably from
; ho house before the joint assembly assem
bled , In order that all trouble might bo pro-
vented. The mayor refused to do so and
said that It was within the power ot the
louse , If It chose to do so , to eject them.
Senator Bronston argued for seine time
n'lth the mayor , but without effect.
The situation looked critical , because the
democrats declared that If an attempt were
made by the two ox-membors to veto It
ivould tntrely precipitate' trouble. The re
publican leaders asserted that both James
and Walton had a right on the floor , and
some were not slow to say that they -would
vote In Joint session for United States sen-
itor.
Adjutant General Collier cald just now
Lhat the only difference between the unseat
ing of Kaufman In the house and the de
claring vacant of the seats of James and
Walton In the renato was that Kaufman was
legally unseated while James and Walton
were not. It Is expected that the adjutant
general will take a hand In case the trouble
breaks out.
Just before noon the police ordered all
persons In the upper corridors to get below
ind a deuso mass of men gathered In the
loner corridors of the house. A few were
still loft In the cloak rooms of the houoe
and ssnite , and these -wero slowly forced
out and down the stairways. Among these
iu the senate cloak room were Chluu. LII-
lard , Williams , Thompson , Roach , Black
burn and a number of special policemen.
No attempt was made to clear the senate
lobby of tbo crowd.
When the senate -filed Into the house
chamber to ballot for United States senator ,
Mr. Dunlap had not arrived upon the floor
or qualified. When this fact became known
it served to cool , to a great degree , ths ex
citement. It wao evident that the endeavor
of the republicans to elect a senator today
would fall unless , ot course , the vote of
Populist Pcor had been secured.
Half a dozen ladles were In the right-
hand lobby cf the house chamber In splto
of the exciting times. of yesterday. Tbey
Included MUs Laura Clay , Mrs. J. K. Henry
and mother of Versailles.
PASSED THB JOURNAL.
Senator Bronston asked that ths Journal
of each bouto of yesterday bo read. An
objection was made to the reading and the
chair sustained the objection and said thai
ho had understood tuat only the Journal 01
tl'O Joint assembly should be read.
Bronston made the point " that the joint
assembly must Include tho" journals of cacl
houso. He again made the same argument
as on yesterday , that thcro" was no separate
Journal kept of Joint assembly and that It
was therefore necessary to have separate
journals of each house read In accordance
with the law and not that ho wished to
delay the taking of the ballot.
Mr. Landes said that the Joint assembly
had no Jurisdiction to changa or correci
anything that occurred In cither house on
yesterday and that Bronston had no rlghi
to make the request that anything ba reai
but the Journal of the Joint assembly. He
asked the chair to declare the gentleman
out of order.
Mr. Blanford said that tbo Joint asssmbly
had no right to approve or correct any par
of the Journal of the house or senate of yes
tcrday and tberoforo neither should .bo road
Bronston oald : "Tho time has come whci
wo must understand each other. The jour
nals of tlio house and senate of yesterday
are u part of the journal of the Joint asajm
bly. " He argued at length.
The chair decided that the Joint assembly
was a separate assembly , distinct from eacl
houk-B , and that the member was only en
titled tj have read proceedings of the join
iiJscmbly.
After moro tfrangllng , Salyer , democrat
moved that the reading of the Journal of the
Joint assembly be dispensed with. Agreed to
Before the call oC the roll on the bailo
was begun , Senator Bronston stated that lie
understood that there was stationed in the
corrldcr a platoon of police , he suppose !
for the purpose of preserving peace and gooi
order. Ho continual : "I ask why cortuln
persons now on the floor of ttla house are
here. I at k this , first , nr a request , ani
second , as a motion that every ono bo ex
cluded from , the floor of this house tavo
member * of the Joint assembly , olllcers am
the press. "
Mr. llaruett made the point that the mo
tion ivas out ot order.
Tlio chair mid ho thought the motion was
out of order , but ho would put H to the as
sembly anyway.
imOKE THE QUORUM.
The republicans refused to vote , with the
Intention of breaking n quorum. Edrlngtoi
voted with the democrats for the motion , as
did Poor. The chair announced that no
quorum had voted , and tbo motion was loat
The presiding ofllccr announced that ho was

Tlio action ot the renato yesterday In un'
eating James nnd Wa\ton \ was taken without
ilthor charges or n trial , or any show of
c-gallty. Wood Dunlnp has not decided
vhotber he will cbnsent to be sworn In , but
t U believed ho will. He raid today : "I
will take my sent It myolc will elect a
Jnlted States senator. "
Senator Bill Clark today heard that It
was contemplated to unseat him In the same
nannor as James and Walton were unseated.
Io at once announced a bet of $1,000 to Jl
that It this should bo done , itobody would
irevent him from entering the Joint assem-
> ly and voting. The republicans are per
fectly confident tonight that they have the
votra to elect Boyle.
The Enquirer's special from Frankfort ,
: < y. , says : Senator Gocbel , the leader for
Bladkburn , says that "tlio democrats believe
that Lieutenant Governor Worthing has de
cided to hold that seventy Is a quorum If the
roll call shows that Blackburn would bo
elected and tfcat sixty-nine Is a quorum if
Boyle Is elected , and tho.t 'troublp Is again
expected. He says the republicans unseated
[ Cauffman because there were four democrats
n the senate who would not veto to unseat
iwo republican senators for every democrat
unseated In the house. But these four demo
crats fell In line for retaliation. If the re
publicans had not been confident that there
was treachery In the democratic ranks , ho
holds that they would net have oven taken
up the Dunlap-Kauffman contest. Senator
Goebol and others believe that there will bean
an extra session called at ouco after the ad
journment on March 17.

Shcllcn to show now the vibrations ot a

rate was reached ono would hoar the Iqwcst

till they had acquired Hie velocity of 400-

point rod light would be produced. Then or

successively would appear. Beyond 800,000-

porcclvo nothing , but the vibrations would
affect the silver salt of a photographic plate.

the vibration per second Increased , of course ,
the amplitude of the wave must decrease ,
and at this point the wavej were exceedingly
small. He suggested that as the vibrations
Increased beyond the actinic speed that Is ,
the wave length that affected the sensitized
plate one would perhaps bo confronted by
i magnetic , and then by an electrical effect.
Ho called attention to the molecular structure
of matter , and the Intermolccular spaces ,
suggesting that cathode and X rays were
vibrations of such a small magnitude that
the amplitude of the wave was less than the
measurement of the molecular Interspace , and
consequently It found there a path through
bodies opaque to the longer waves of or
dinary llnht.
EXPEKlMEtfTS AT THB COLLEGE.
Soon atlpr" Koctgen had presented his fa-
moue memoir o the Physlco-Medlcal society
at Wurzbijrjs , " Investigations on similar lines
were begup at Crelghtcn college by Profes
sors Ottoh'r Mara and Crowley. Taking ad
vantage oL hc , observations of previous In
quirers , as , published In scientific Journals ,
the apparatus ( "ivas set up and ordinary dry
plates werp''subjected to the action of the
mysterious X , rays , for three and four hours
at a tlmej 'However , these first experiments
seemed to" , promlso but little success. Then
a now battery jjvas set up ! and a fresh stock
of extra VapldBCramc.r dry plates procured.
Having wrapped one of them In blade paper
and cnclosp/j. / Itln , a brix , It was exposed for
three hoursnd ! ten minutes. After an
hour's effort' ( p develop thla first plate of
the varlb ar cles that had bewi placed
upon Ijt. pnl'y a. tunal ! coin made Its appear
ance , whlls.t' tlfe.'wholo plate showed distinct
traces of Dtiemlcal action. Concluding .that
"
there was most"prpbably question of overexposure -
exposure , the next plate was developed after
an exposure of three hours , nnd the three
articles , a watch key , an ordinary door key
and a braoj clamp , were brought out qulto
distinctly. As the contrast showed that the
cliomlcal action bad been quite Intense , the
tlmo of exposure , In the next trial , was not
only shortened to one hour , but at tlio s.imo
tlmo tbo voltage sent Into the primary was
reduced from sixteen to ten. The result was
a negative of remarkable definition In the
central portion and of great Indistinctness
along tbe edges. As this seemed to point
to an Insulflclont spreading of the rays , the
next plate was placed at a distance of four
Inches Instead of two , from the tube. The
appearance of the developed negative clearly
showed the correctnra of the reasoning.
Thlo negative Is moreover of spsclal Interest
in as much as It brings out plainly the dif
ference of effect which different substances
have upon the X rays. A brass diaphragm
about one-sixteenth of an Inch In thickness
was enclosed In a heavy leather case , and
in the center of the diaphragm was placed a
thin plate of platinum. The developed
negative showed that the rays had passed
almost unchanged through the leather case
sines It appeared only in dim outline ; the
platinum plate , too , had but partially sup
pressed them , but the braea diaphragm bad
stopped them completely. Tlio same fact
was brought out In another experiment , In
which a piece of glass , a strip of zinc and a
Plata of aluminium were placed on a box
containing the sennltlzcd plate , and across
them was laid a. pair of steel forceps. The
aluminium and zinc were of the same thick-
nco3 , whereas the glass was twice the thick
ness of the- other two. On the developed
negative the forceps do not appear t all on
the ? Inc ; they appear tolerably distinct on
the gari ! , but more than twice as distinct on
the aluminium , showing that aluminium Is
the most transparent of tbe three.
SHORTENED THB EXPOSURE.
After this the time of exposure was
shortened considerably in each experiment.
A lead pencil and two pieces of meat , ono
containing a number of plno and the other
03ino shot were placed on a plate nnd exposed -
posed for fifteen minutes. On developing
the plate It was found that the rays had
passed through the pencil , graphite and all ;
they had partly found their way through
the meat containing the pins , but were ar
rested by the other piece containing the shot ,
this plecs being an Inch In thickness ,
whereas the former was only half an Inch.
After vadous other experiments , a mouse
waa placed on a box containing a Seeds' dry
plate. The tube was excited for thirty-five
minutes by a current of about six volts. The
developed plate allotted that only tbo heavier
bones of thiP Head and legs had proved nn
obstacle to'rttlie rayo. The skeleton of a
boy's hand was'taken ' In seventeen minutes
and finally thr < Se fingers of a grown man
were expofcU 'for thirty-five minutes amj
when devolofcWLthe plato showed the bones
qulto distinctly.c
In thcao "experiments different positions
and comblnauops of poles were tried. Some
plates wore placed directly under the cathode ,
a position whltn1 peems to have been chosen
by most lnYes > tjEJUors : yet others were placed
alongside tJiflfithodo and showed equally
good results..Io p mo the ordinary method
of making inp .pin tlnum disc , the cathode
was folIoweS , ' yet equally good negatives
were obtnlniM' Uy making ono of the points
the negative ! Jpolo. The best arrangement ,
however , Bt > oimto ' bo to make the dlro the
cathode and 'place ' ? the anode nearest to the
uansltlzpd .Ql tGThe tlmo of exposure
varies with , tlipr'i'lrengtli cf the current , no
less than wllil the nature of the articles to
bo photographed , A good negative was ob
tained by an exposure ot one minute , though
In cases where the rays are made to pass
through the objects of considerable thick
ness , hardly less than flvo minutes will do.
The experimental portion of the program
was under tlio direction of Profti. Otten and
Mara. Investigations will bo continued at
the college laboratory and the Omaba public
may rest assyrpd that should any Improve
ment be discovered In the technique ot the
operations K Will be advised of the now

E. R. Clark , grand chlot conductor of the
Order of Hallway Conductors ot .V arlca ,
was In the city yesterday nnd appeared before
tlio court of Mastcr-ln-Chaticcry Cornish of
the Union Pacific this morning. Mr. Clark , to-
Kether with J. II. Sullivan of Ilawllns , nnd
Mr. Woodmanslc of Cheyenne , represents
the conductors of the Union Pacific In the
case now before the master's court.
To n Ueo reporter Mr. Clark sold yesterday
afternoon thnt all that the conductors wanted
wns a return to the time schedule which was
ordered by JudgeCalducll nnd which VIM
not been adhered to by the managers ot the
rond. Ho said the conductors on the Idaho
and Wjomlng divisions were most seriously
affected by the shorter hours which the
management ot the road had Introduced
during the last two years , adding that In
one Instance Judge Caldncll had ordered the
rend to employ five train crows for operat'tig '
four trains , but that the receivers of the
road had allowed this order to be- trans
gressed and the fifth train crow discharged.
lie hoped that after the hearing the master
would make a favorable report on the ap
peal. In that cnso an order would bo Issued
by Judge Sqnborn compelling the receivers
ot the road to adhere to the schedule as
promulgated by Judge Coldwcll.
When asked as to the general condition ot
the Order of Hallway Conductors , Mr. Clark
replied that the organization was never In
better condition. It had qulto recovered
from the trial It pnssod through In 1S93 and
1SD4 , which were hard years for nil forms ot
organized labor. During these two years his
organization had lost over COO men , but
these losses had more than been made good
during the past three years.

CHICAGO , March 12. Both the Atchlson
and the Denver & Hlo Grande have met the
cuts made by tlio Union Pacific , Denver &
Quit to all Colorado common points. The
action ot the Denver & Quit was a surprise
to the other roads , as , after the last reduc
tion , the rates were restored at the especial
request of that line and It was forced to take
all Its tickets off tbo market at a loss ot con
siderable money. Just why It should repeat
the action is not clearly understood here.
Iteports are being made to the Western
Passenger association that tlio market In
Denver Is In a condition far from satis
factory. The brokers are said to bo liberally
supplied with various kinds of tickets , with
which they are cutting the rates from ? 2 to
$ C. Numerous calls for redemption are
bolriE made on the roads.

CHICAGO , March 12. Some tlmo ago
Chairman Caldwell ruled that tickets sold
from eastern points through to Alaska were
not subject to the provisions of the trans
continental passenger agreement. This was
taken by some ot the roads to mean that
they could sell tickets to Seattle , Tacoma
and other points In that section of the
country without attention to the transcon
tinental agreement. The chairman has now-
handed down a ruling to the effect that
It 1s only through business to Alaska that
Is exempt from the agreement. Several
roads have been doing quite a business to
north Pacific coast points lately on the
strength of the permission to Ignore the
agreement on Alaska traffic.
Snow In Western XeI > rn Un.
The railroad weather reports yesterday
showed light snow In the northern and
western parts of the state. Along the north
ern division of the Burlington snow fell at
the following places during the night : Grand
Islard , Central City , Palmer , Grecley
Center , Erlcson , Burwell , Crete , Fair
mont , Button , Harvard , Hastings and
Kearney. The fall varied In depth
from ono to three Inches. Washington and
Chester were the only places on the south
ern division that wore favored. Holdrcge ,
Curtis and Cheyenne also reported a couple
Inches of snow. On the Wyoming division
the fall was considerable , In Deadwood
amounting to mine Inches.

restored after the former reduction at Its
especial request , and that it was forced to

WASHINGTON , March 12 , The house
committee on Pacific railways today listened
to a statement by C. P. Hunllngton , simi
lar to that made before the senate com-
mltloo In advocacy ot a plan ot settlement
of the Pacific railway Indebtedness.
In concluding his address Mr. Huntington -
ton remarked extemporaneously that no
man was so anxious no ho to sco the reads
pay 100 cents on the dollar , that It wat
the last great work ot his life ho was
doing only small things and ho hoped to
live to EOO all his affairs on a solid basts.
If ho equaled the record ot his great grand
father ho had yet thirty years ot lite.
A rambling discussion , participated In br
Mr. Huntlngton and members of the com
mittee , consumed halt an hour. Ono ot the
questions asked by Chairman Powers was
whether under the company's plan the
Southern. Pnciflo would bo able to guarantee
the payments.
"Tlio Southern Pacific la a solid old com
pany , " Mr , Huntlngton replied , "ami whllo
I would not llko to do anything to make
It pay much money , I would bo willing
that it should guarantee these payments ,
because I am so sure It would not bo called
upon to pay. I am only ono ot several ,
but I have been running this thing thirty
years nnd what I say generally goes. I
am willing to promise that the- Southern
Pacific will guarantee these payments. "
When Mr. Powers tnqullvd It the char
ter of the Southern Pacific , granted by
the Kentucky legislature was broad enough
to permit this , Mr. Huntlngton answered :
"Oh , that Is broad enough to do meat any
thing , " and the commlttcemen laughed.
"That Is a broad charter and a clean charter -
tor , " ho added , "and has about done all
wo wanted It to do. "
Then Mr. Harrison , democrat ot Alabama ,
Inquired whether the Income from the road
during the past ton years would not " ar
rant a higher rate of Interest than Z per
cent.
"No , there has got to bo a llttlo mar
gin , " was the reply.
Another question was whether the com
pany could ba-.e met the requirements of
the Rellly bill of the last congress , and
Mr. HuntlDfiton replied : "Oh , no. You
might as v/cil tell a drowning man that
there Is a rail on shore and he can save
himself If ho will go and get that. That
bill waa a financial Impossibility. "
In discussing the public opinion ot Cal
ifornia , Mr. Huntlngton said the great ma
jority ot the people favored the funding
plan , and added : "There are perhaps 100
men In California against us ; smart fellows ,
too , because they have always got a living
without working. They have a grievance
because they were dismissed from the pay
rolls at my suggestion , and they want to get
back , but they won't. "
"But Is It not significant , " Mr. Boatner
asked , "that every member of congress trom
California but ono Is irrevocably opposed to
this plan ? "
"They have a grievance , most of them , "
was the reply. "One man who ran against
Mr. English said when Mr. English came
hero , that If wo had given 111 in a little help
ho might have como here. We told him we
were out of politics. " Mr. Huntlngton was
sure the company was not Interested In
thosa personal matters and remarked : "I
do 'not want to cay what these men tell me ,
personally , " referring to the congressman.
Mr. Barham had told him that rates were
too high , but did not even know what the
rates were.
"But the press of California seems to be
solidly arrayed against you , " Mr. Boatner
suggested.
"Seven-eighths of the papers are for us , "
Mr. Huntington replied. "Tho California
papers are mixed. I never read them. The
Examiner Is against us strong. The Chron
icle that's a great paper that Is fair , I am
told. The Post Is fair. "
"There was a rather warm passage at
arms between Mr. Arnold of Pennsylvania
and Mr. Johnson of California , when Mr.
Johnson asked Mr. Huntlngton to specify
what were the grievances to which he re
ferred.
"Johnson wants a bill of particulars , " Mr.
Arnold observed jocularly.
"Ho In after a campaign fund. "
This Irritated Mr. Johnson , who declared
with some warmth that ho was not after any
campaign fund , that ho was perfectly fa
miliar with all the situation , and did not
care to have the dirty linen of California
washed In congress.
Mr. Arnold said the local business of Cal
ifornia need not prevent a fair Judgment of
the rolntloim between the government and
the Pacific roads , and the hearing ended.

Is by far the best article we have ever

cotton goods come out ! white and clean.
Flannels and woolens are not only
washed clean , but como from the. water
soft and fleecy as now , without shrink
ing. Wo have never used any prep
aration that could compare with this
one in washing flannels. We also note
that It breaks the water , making It very
soft and pleasant to the hands and
does not redden or chap them. Wo
think so favorably of It that we shall
hereafter use It In our laundry.
