LINCOLN , Neb. , March 27. I Special to Tnit
Br.K. ] The following commlcatlon was road
in the senate this morning :
Whereas , U has como to the knowledge ot
Omaha Typographical union , No. 100 , that
house roll No. 77 has been indefinitely post
poned In the state senate ; therefore be It
Resolved. That wo demand of the state
sonata the immediate reconsideration of the
vote by which this bill wns postponed , and
nlso that it bo enacted Into law.
Resolved. That a copy of those resolutions
ho sent under seal to each member In the
senate from Douglas county.
The bill referred to embodies tbo Aus
tralian election system. Senator Paulson
moved to reconsider the vote by which It
was defeated , but his motion wns ruled out
of order. Ono or two similar efforts hnvo
been inndo to rcsustlcato this measure , but
its coflln lid Is nailed down and cannot be re
moved this session. When it wns Indefi
nitely postponed a motion was' made to re
consider the vote , nnd that motion was ta
bled. This Is n parliamentary method of
clinching the codln nails to insure undis
turbed rcposo for the corpse. Resurrection
may occur in a future legislature , but the
friends of the mooAtiro may as well under
stand that It Is securely burled BO fur as the
present session Is concerned.
Late this afternoon ( Church Howe called
up n house bill changing the time of meeting
of presidential electors. Ho moved to amend
by striking out nil after the enacting clause ,
and substituting the body of the Australian
election bill.
Ransom raised the point that the Austra
lian bill had been killed and the vote
clltuThcd , but the chair ruled that anything
could bo offered ns an amendment.
Howe's motion to amend was tabled by a
vote of 10 to 13.
Mr. Hull Explains.
LINCOLN , Nob. , March 37. [ Special to Tnn
BEK.J A decided misunderstanding has
arisen between Representative Hall , of Lan
caster , aud Church Howo. Mr. Hall arose
to a personal explanation to-day and asked
to spread the following on the journal of the
house :
"Church Howe , a member of the senate ,
having charged in open session upon the
Bonato floor this forenoon that Hall , of Lan
caster , in the house , was the cause of striking
out from Bonato lllo No. 102 of the provision
that secure n license a saloonkeeper must
with bis petition send in written consent of
adjoining property owners , and that Raid
Hall caused said provisions to bo striken out
of said bill because ho wai unwilling that anyone
ono else should got the credit for such enact
ment , said provision inserted as an amend
ment to house roll No. 12-1. Introduced by
.Bald Hall , which bill was defeated by the
house on final passage.
"I therefore rise to a question of privilege
to the foregoing ctuirgo of said Howe and
atato that the statements of said Howe re
ported to me as given above ave devoid of
truth In every partlcularthat ; ; Baid provision
was stricken out bv the house committee on
cities and towns ; that I consented to said
action because of the adverse vote thcroon
by the house as shown in the vote on house
roll No. 124 nnd for the further reason that
Bald Howe came himself to me , requested
that-said provision bo stricken out for some
reason , aud added in his sweet , confidential
tone , 'I never took any stock In the provision
nnyway. '
"I desire further to state that the only in
terest I had in senate file No. 103 was occa
sioned by the fact that It , as amended by the
bouse , provided for an excise board In Lin
coln , n necessary amemlraent to the liquor
law to enable.the Lincoln charter to become
effective nnu that I was not playing for , the
presentation of a silver tea sot of ninety-one
pieces to myself , from Omaha or elsewhere. "
Outlook for 'Adjournment.
LINCOLN , Nob. , March 27. [ Special Tele
gram to TUB BBC. ] "I want to go homo"
is the universal cry , but adjournment IB
about as much an uncertainty as over. The
senate has Its affairs well in hand and can go
out of business on Friday , but the plunderers
In the house may succeed ia getting up a row
over the senate's reductions in appropria
tions that will extend tbo session to the next
week. The salary bill was read a second
time in the senate to-day and to-night is
being considered by senators in conference.
It ia not lone , has already been pruned by
the bouse , and may bo disposed of in the
senate to-morrow. The deficiency bill was
road the first tlmo this afternoon and will
roach passage on Friday.
The senate has little of consequence be
fore it. The farmers of the house have
agreed to concur in the senate reductions ,
hut if they fall to control that body tbo re-
0U.lt wilt bo a fight and a conference committee -
too , Tuo purposes of Stout , Butler nnd
Konnard nro shrouded In mystery. There
haa not been n "poop" m the senate , but they
nnd their lobbyists are banging about the
capital. The sohomo of the jobbers la the
house Is to got the appropriation bills into a
conference , and it is whispered that Stout ,
Butler and Kennard hope to reinstate their
claims tbrouga that channel. No other ave
nue now seems to bo open for thorn. The
appointment of the conference committee , 11
it ' comes , will devolve aa important powei
on'4ho presiding oOlcgre.
The Extra Pages.
LN , Nob. , March 27. [ Special to Tin
Bnc.I What will wo do with this oxtro
pages 1 is the query that Is bothering the ay-
erago member of the houso. Two years' age
two boys not on the pay roll hung around
the house most of the session , and In the
closing hours a resolution was rushed
through allowing thorn full pay as pages
This year nearly a dozen , falling to secure
an appointment by the speaker , have trlec
the same trlok , and to-day a resolution vya :
introduced to place them on the pay roll ,
But the effort was not a brilliant success.
\Vhlto ot Cess moved that the resolution be
Hid on the table , and the motion prevailed
by a vote of 40 to 89.
The bill for these suporservlcoable pages
Will amount to $1,000 , and If the bad exntnpU
of the last legislature Is followed , and these
claims allowed , two years bonce the leglsla-
turo will bo literally overrun with boys wh <
expect to draw their $75 to $100 from tbi
state by means of a little resolution rushec
through In the closing hours of the session ,
Moro Claims.
LiNCOi-K , Neb. , March 27. [ Special to Tni
BBS. ] There seems to bo no end of claim ;
against the state. The special deficiency
bill has been disposed of nnd a multitude o
similar claims , and -to-day a bill of mlsool
laneous Items , amounting to about $9,000 wa
called up. Bortts moved that the whole bll
fee tabled , which was voted down.

( to the actions of * ho senatorial alliance 01
Appropriations not only caused a genera
scramble for that paper , but It brought to th
Aonato this morning a big audience of on
lookers , Including many representatives ani
other friends of state institutions.
The committee appointed to Investigate th
sitoto farm and the agricultural experlmonta
station presented a majority and a mlnorlt'
report on lines already explained In THE BCE
'ttho reports were long and wore orderei
ppreud on the journal without being road
spirited contest is anticipated when the ;
I are taken up for action.
V Senator Church Howe moved to suspom
pth regular order ot buiinctt and go int <
,1
ommlttoo ot the whole to consider the or-
pcnso bill.
Senator Raymond objected and called for
ho reading of Hall's house bill fixing n
chcdulo ot maximum frolsht rates. Mr.
laymond has not boon Invited to the senate-
lul conferences on anproprlatlons nnd has
> ccn a persistent advocate of railroad Icgls-
atlon <
Senators Ho wo nnd Raymond thereupon
engaged In a wordy spat In which each
ilrcd the political ambitions of the other ,
lowe charged Raymond with posing
ns a reformer1 to catch the guborna-
orlal nomination , and Raymond re
torted by accusing Howe of congres
sional aspirations , to further which ho trims
on nil occasions nnd meddles In Iho charters
if cities in which ho ha % no interest Tlio
Ively crossfire cnturtnlned the spectator ! ? ,
ind Senator Norval capped the climax with
ho following :
Resolved , By this senate that the Hon. T.
W. Raymond is hereby endorsed for the Of-
Ice of governor of this state , nnd the Hon.
Jhurch Howe is likewise endorsed for con
gressman of the First district ; and bo It
lurthor
Resolved , That the political hatchet bo-
.wcon these two gentlemen bo , nnd is hereby
forever burled with the handle up.
Later In the discussion Senator Ransom
stirred up Senator Bcardsloy by chniging
that Lancaster county was the homo of
ilundercrs who were in every plot to rob the
Btnto treasury. Mr. Beardsloy criticised the
lolitlcal course of Ransom , and referred to
, lie senate as a slaughter house. Tills ro-
umrk was particularly pat because a slnugh-
, or liouso Item for the Lincoln hospital for
the Insane was under consideration at the
time.
Senator Lindsay supported Bcnrdsloy by
raising a point of order that Ransom's
speech had nlrcady boon delivered and sat
down on several times. Ransom retorted by
enylng ho was tired of being barked at and
wanted Llndsnv to sit down until ho got
through. And thus the tilt went merrily on.
Howe's motion was adopted and the com
mittee of the whole took UD house roll -133 ,
inown as the expense bill. The programme'
agreed on by tbo senatorial alliance was car
ried out without other Interruption and with
only ono clrangc. The latter , nt the request
of the supreme court , was' the allowance of
53,000 for bailiffs Instead of $1,000. The fol
lowing statement shows the aggregate re
ductions In the various state departments

the house :

AFTEIIJJOON SESSION.
Senator Ransom dragged his live stock
commission bill from the judiciary commit
tee , after a struggle , with a motion request
ing the commltto to return it
to the senate. Ransom's original bill
abolished the live stock commission
In Its entirety. The house amended by re
taining thn stnto veterinary and the quaran
tine law , with an appropriation of $10,000.
The senate defeated an amendment to allow
the veterinary to employ .an unlimited mini-
bcr of assistants , also an amendment provid
ing that diseased animals shall bo killed at
the expense of the state instead of the owner.
The previous question was moved , nnd after
an hour's struggle the house amendment was

clause , and will become a law as soon , as it

represented in the carnival was sold to the
merchants by auction , the prices paid , in
some instances , running as high as $2T . A
friendly rivalry exists among the merchants
and they will vie with each other in their

"Now If that horse only kills himself , I'll
bo satisfied , " exclaimed Mrs. G. A. Palmer
as she stood in C. S. Torbltt's drug store on
upper Farnam street about 6 o'clock last
evening and brushed the dust out ot her
hair. Outside a big crowd had gathered and
was viewing the remains of four vehicles in
a terrible state of delapldatlon , nil caused by
Mrs. Palmer's fractious horso. Mrs. Palmer's
young f > on was driving the animal , which
was attached to a double-seated rig in which
Mrs. Palmer was riding. At the corner , of
Twenty-fourth nnd Faruam the horse bo *
came frightened and ran. and in its mad
flight collided with throe other vehicles , and
immediately four horses were dashing'down
the street. Mrs. Palmer's carriage was the
lirst to como to grief and that lady landed
on her head close to the sidewalk. Then the
buggy of R. R. Grotto , the wholesale liquor
dealer , containing the owner , his wife , son
Arthur and baby , collided with a telcgrao i
polonnd-Br _ Uou its occupants on fej-pnvo-
Kent. Amost ) nt the some Instant the de
livery wagon of Samuel Burns turned bot- .
torn side up , ana a horse attached to a Gate
City market cart tumbled over the high em
bankment into an adjoining lot. Confusion
reigned for several minutes and it was re
ported that several people were badly hurt ,
but an examination showed that the only
serious injury was to young Arthur Grotto ,
who sustained a deep cut on tbo forehead.
When his wound was drcssod ho was able to
bo takfau homo and will bo all right again in
a few days. Mrs. Palmer suffered a slight
cut on the lip , but other wise was not hurt
in the least. The Grotto baby came up smil
ing out of the general xvrcck , and laughed to
sea the doleful look on Its parents' faces. It
was an accident with.some very lucky fea
