Sr. Lovts, Jan. 7.—Frank Mahon, a lineman, is another victim of the murderous wires, He is employed by the Missouri electric light com- pany and was sent to the engine house on 11th street yesterday to repaira line that was out of order. He went to the top of the house and soon after the firemen heard a shout and a scream of oe. Looking up they saw Mahon | tangled in the wires. He had been severely shocked, but still was able to struggle hard to free himself from the deadly wires. His whole body shook fora moment and was hurled the roof down to the vardbelow. He alighted on s mass of bricks and rubbish. The firemen [eps him up and took him to the dispensary. is injuries are fatal. ee DETECTIVES AT THE FUNERAL, Dr. Kniften and Miss Purcell Attend Mrs. Kniffen’s Burial. Trexton, N.J., Jan. 7.—The funeral ser- vices over the body of Mrs, Mira Kniffen was held at 8 o’clock this morning. It had been announced that the services would be held an hour later to throw off the crowd. As early as | 7 o'clock, however, the street in front of the house was choked with people. The remains Mrs. Kniffen were encased in a handsome lined caaket, on the lid of which rested a | sa wreath of flowers. Rev. Dr. Studford, pastor | of the Third Presbyterian church, preached a deeply affecting sermon. f Dr. Kaiffin Miss Purcell, Lennie Kniffin, the doctor's only child, and Mra. Murphy, the dead woman’s mother, wept during the services, On the way from the house to the station the first carriage of the procession was occupied by Dr. Kniffin and Miss Purcell, There were nine carriages in the Krebos, Na besides the one in which the detectives rode. A gentle rain was falling ss the train wound up the river road past Lambertville and other points to Milford, where carriages are to be taken to Mt, Pleasant, four miles away, at which place the body will be interred. - Kniftin looks bad, but does not sppear to sufferso much as might be ex- pected from his attempt at suicide. ee ‘Wall Street Today. New York, Jan. 7.—The stock market was active this morning, but the usual attack upon the coal stock was accompanied by more success than usual of late and material losses in these shares was followed by fractional con- cessionsin the remainder of the list. The opening prices re again made at marked losses from last evening's figures, the declines extending to 5 per cent as a rule, while Jersey Central was exceptional with a loss of 3%. Beading and Lackawana immediately sprang to the front rank in activity and led the down- ward movement, each losing 1 per cent trom its opening figure after opening down frac- tionally, Phe other active stocks were Mis- souri Pacific and Chicago gas trust, but while the former was heavy with the best of the list Ch'cago gas was unusually strong and on a large business rose 1% to 45, followed by Ten- nessee coal with a net gain of 134 to 88!¢. The other trusts were quiet and moved with the regular list and the remainder of the stocks traded in were dull and without feature. There | was a rally from the lowest prices among the weak stocks, but Reading afterward retired still further and the movement was accompa- nied by s corresponding decline in the incomes, the firsts losing 4 per cent to 743¢ and the thirds 24 at 4414. At 11 o'clock the market was quiet and fairly steady at about the lowest prices reached. ——_— FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. New York Stock Market.

The police reports show fifty-five members sick, including Capt Austin and Inspector Swindells, and with the forty-eight detailed ae eae ee force for street duty is ‘WORK AT THE CITY POST OFFICE STILL INPEDED. The condition of affairsat the city post of- fice remains unchauged. There are still enough clerks and carriers absent to seriously impede the work of the office. Twelve extra substitute carriers for the local delivery have been called from the civil service lists to fill the places temporarily of the carriers who are absent with the grip. STREET CAR MEN HAVE IT, “Lagrippe” bas the street car men in its disagreeable clutches, and as a consequence a great many employes are unable to steer horses, snap bell punches, or to semi-occasion- ally pull the cord which works the alleged “street indicator.” If the intluenza Salged e “extra” men would rejoice exceedingly, but “la grippe” is endeavoring to be equitable and it graspe the nose and racks the mucous mem- brane of the just and the unjust alike. The transfer men are aiso sufferers and one-half of the force on duty at 7th street and Pennsylva- nia avenue is disabled, IN THE SCHOOLS, Teachers and scholars slike in the public schools are suffering from the prevailing epidemic. There are vacant seats at the desks and if there was nota shifting about each day | there would be in many rooms no teachers. | The call for substitute teachers are of daily oc- | currence and the supervising principals are frequently obliged to furnish all the way from one to three teachers for each building. Superintendeat Powell said toa STaR man | this morning that the situation was pretty bad, | but it might be worse. There was a good de: ot sickness in the schools, but he did not think that 25 ‘per cent of the scholars were affected. Some of the | scholars have not returned since the Christmas | holidays, The teachers, he said, have been | sick, but it has been possible to procure substi- tutes and the schools have gone on as usual, only with diminished numbers. He thought that the situation was improving and that many of the teachers and scholars who bad been kept ied by colds were now returning to their taties, GRIPLETS. Among those who have wrestled with the im- orted influenza in its worst form is Mr. E. B. ‘ight,the well-known correspondent. Although still confined to his room Mr. Wight is on the highway to recovery. ‘The Haytian minister has been sufferin; from a severe attack of the fashionable dis- order, but is now convalescing. Joseph Mehler, proprietor of Solari’s hotel, is lying dangerously ill with pneumonia in New York, brought on primarily by an attack of la grippe. M B Austin Herr of Georgetown Heights is confined to his home with la grippe. Mrs. A. M. Sprague, the wife of Doorkeeper Sprague of the executive mansion, is lying very ill with pneumonia, She was taken with la grippe and it has turned to pneumonia, Mr. Sprague is also home with la grippe. The reports from the health officer are quite reassuring us far as they go. Within the last twenty-four hours there have been no deaths reported there from the grip or from any other variety of bronchial or pulmonary troubie. pepaty Commissioner of Pensions Lincoln, who has been confined to his ho: for the past ten days with a severe attack of “la gripe,” is still quite ill, but hopes to be at his desk ina day or 60, —— PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE. The Commissioners Answer a Resolution of the House of Representatives. The Commissioners today wrote the following letter to the Speaker of the House of Repre- sentatives: “In reply to the resolution of the House of Representatives of November 6, 1883, the Com- missioners of the District of Columbia have the honor toreport that the work of improving Pennsylvania avenue from 11th street to East- ern branch, referred to in the resolution as the approaches to the new bridge over the Eastern branch of the Potomac river, is under contract and will be completed before the termination of the current fiscal year. The Commission- ershope to have the road opened by the time the bridge is completed, and they have not considered it desirable to hasten this work at the expeuse of other work upon streets now needed for immediate use, This improvement is a part of the schedule referred to in the ap- propriation act for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1890, and not only the time for its execu- | tion, but the question whether it should be ex- ecuted or not, was left by Congress to the dis- cretion of the Commissioners.” THE ST. LOUIS POST OFFICE. A Candidate Said to be Chosen and Sure of Strong Support in the Senate. F. W.Schuarte, the principal candidate for the St. Louis post office, called on the Presi- dent this morning in company with R.C, Kerens of St. Louis, bis principal backer, and ex-Sena- tor Powell Clayton of Arkansas, The extreme interest shown in the St, Louis post office fight is evidenced by the fact that the leading re- publicans, and the democratic Senators from Arkansas as well, have been persuaded to take ahandin it, Mr. Kerens, whose intimate rela- S tion with the Arkansas people has been devel- oped by his investments in the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad and in Eureka Springs, Ark., has not only prevailed upon ex-Senator Clayton to indorse his candidate, Mr.Schuarte, for the pisee, but it is generally understood, has obtained from Senator Jones of Arkansas a promise thatin the secret session of the Senate, if the President should send in the name of Mr. Schuarte, he will make a speech in favor of Schuarte's confirmation. Me. Kerens dined with the President Sunday night and the St. Louis post office matter is said to have been settled then in favor of Mr. Schuarte. The President, however, has prom- ised Representative Niedringhaus that he will make no appointment until he ehall return from St. Louis, so no appointment is expected today, Mr, Niedringhaus is expected here tomorrow. ——_—— The Body Not Yet Identified.

Moore at once wired to Ilion. N. Y., and in reply basa dispatch that Wm. Cook of that place had certain India ink marks and sears on his person.

AT THE CAPITOL TO-DAY [Continued from First Page,] who attacked the 8 3 He Sgro Aig question [gp Pern could be raised against a mution to go into the committee of the whole; but the reso- a lution went far beyond that and provide: (em le porarily, it was true) foracode of rules, thought the time had come when the re it was to be governed by rules) should hi ose rules, (Applause on demo¢ratic side.} All gentlemen on both sides of the House had the right to know precisely what their rights were here as representatives of their constituents. it was now the 7th of Jannary. The House bad been in session (except for the recess) since the first Monday in December, and yet all that had been done towards the adoption of the rules was to agree from time to time that the House would be governed by a part of the rules of the last Housa He had no special objection to this consideration of the appropriation bill at the time; but if the House established we arr y the minority had no assurance that the House was not to go on without any rules, Rules were in- tended not only for the government of the House but also that the representatives of the minority of the American people might be protected, and those representatives the right to know by what rules ey were to be governed. The democrats were ready at any time to con- sider the whole body of rules; and until then it was hardly fair to thrust upon them parts of the rules temporarily and leave them without any knowledge as to what rules would govern them when the next measure came up for con- sideration. He hoped that the appeal would be sustained; but if it was not he hoped the resolution would be defeated and the House allowed to stand where it was until the perma- nent rules were adopted for its government. MR. CRISP IN THE SAME LINE. Mr. Crisp (Ga,) followed in the same line, contending that a question of consideration could be raised against a proposition to enact certain rules temporarily just as well as against 4 proposition to enact a permanent code of rules, For six weeks the House had been waiting for the committee on rules, Why could not the House have rules for its government? If the majority said that it was not ready to report the rules, let the | House adjourn from day to day until’ that re- port was prepared. The minority protested against this practice, which entrusted to the Speaker the power of deter- mining what was and what was not in order, without reference to fixed rules. He appealed to members of the majority, as fair-minded men, to prescnt a uniform code of rules. They could make the code as they de- sired, but he had a right to ask them to pre- sent the code so that the minority might know what its rights were. Mr. Bland (Mo.) was opposed to pak brsg the rules of the last House piecemeal, Mr, Rogers (Ark.) and Mr. Hooker (Migs.) argued against the position taken by the Speaker. Mr. Breckinridge, while controverting the ruling of the Speaker, addressed himself more lsepetedly, to 8 question of the discourtesy which was shown in calling up the bill in the absence of the two democratic members of the subcommittee, THE DISTRICT BILL NON-PARTISAN. Mr. McComas (Md.) said that the District of Columbia appropriation bill had been passed in the last Congress during the absence of the minority members of the subcommittee; but the minority had made no complaint. If the gentleman from Kentucky would say that he had authority from either of the absent mem- bers to say that they desired that the bill sbould not be called up today he (Mr. Mc- Comas) would withdraw the resolution. There was no just reason for failing to consider the biil, which was entirely non-partisan in its na- ture. THE FIRST TIME IN SIZTEEN YEARS, Mr. Cannon (IIL) said that for the first time in sixteen years the District of Columbia ap- propriation bill had been reported to the House before the holiday recess. It had remained on the table for three weeks and now, when the republicans wished to proceed with the busi- ness of the country, gentlemen on the other side held up their hands in horror and said: “Oh! don’t; we have no rules.” MR. M'KINLEY’S POINT. Mr. McKinley (Ohio) said that the committee on rules would report a code of rulos within a reasonable time, and the only question before the House was whether, while awaiting that report, public business was to be suspended. The country was infinitely more concerned in what the House did than in the rules under which they did it. [Applause on republican side.) He called attention to the fact that there was no bill seeking a priority of consideration with the District bill: and there was no ques- tion of consideration to be raised. Mr. McMillin (Tenn.) contended that a ques- tion of consideration could be raised even if there was not another measure pending in the House, Heurged the importance of the speedy adoption of a code of rules, MR. HENDERSON STATES POSITION. Mr. Henderson (Iowa) said that, as he under- stood the matter, gentlemen on the other side were opposed to doing anything without rules and wanted rules adopted under which nothing could be done. (Laughter and applause on re- publican side.] The majority was charged with trying to ravish the other side without rules, How? By proposing to consider and passa bill on the calendar under rules by a democratic House. Was that ravishment? He wanted the republican members to come up shoulder to shoulder and show that they were ready to do the business of the country. He DEFENDED THE COMMITTEE ON RULES from the charge of delay and eicited applause from the republican side by his reference to Mr. McKinley presiding over the ways and means committee, giving to the business interests of the country that hearing which had been denied them by'a democratic committee, Let the committee on rules take its time and bring in a code which would advance and not obstruct business, DEFENDING THE SPEAKER'S DECISION, Mr. Butterworth (Ohio) contended that the decision of the Speaker was a proper one; and he advocated the adoption of the resolution, Mr. Heard (Mo.) inquired whether any ex- igency demanded the passage of the bill before the rules were adopte: Mr. Butterworth replied that an exigency always existed to do anything when it was proper and timely to do it. Mr. Herbert (Ala.) maintained that the House had the right any time to decline to consider any proposition, and he argued that the Speak- er’s position was a mistaken one, Mr. Adams (IIL) thought that it was in the interest of the House and people that the com- mittee onrules should have all the time it wanted in order to formuiate a code of rules which would facilitate the transaction of pub- lic business. THE SPEAKER'S DECISION SUSTAINED. After further debate in the House, after the report on the first edition closed, the decision of the Speaker was sustained on a vocal vote— 143 to 130—and the yeas and nays were then ordered. THE DEMOCRATIC Capitol Topics, AN ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF WAR NEEDED, The bill authorizing the appointment of an asgistant secretary of war at asalary of $4,500 was today reported by Senator Cockrell from the committee on military affairs without amendment and with a unanimous recom- mendation that it pass, After reciting the necessity whic exists for such an officer the report shows that the De- rtment of State and the Department of Jus- ice have, respectively. 59 and 48 clerks. and yet each of them has three officers who are as- sistant secretaries or attorneys general, while the War department has 1,277 clerks and noas- sistant, The reportsays “‘an assistantsecretary is needed to strengthen the civil influence in the department, to assist in the civil direction of the military establishment, as constitution- ally intended, and in the performance of the strictly civil duties of the department enjoined upon it by law; to preside over the department in the temporary absence of the Secretary and as a matter of economy.

AvBavGu's.—“Paola.” The Duff opera com- pany presented the comic opera of “Paola” at Albaugh’'s last night ina manner to catch the audience and shake it up in a most gratifying fashion, The music is light and airy and the libretto sparkling and funny, and such a com- bination in the hands of good people must of necessity win. A Corsican bandetta is the theme, and so dreadful a subject 1s all the more amusing when Travesty takes it in hand. Mr. McLaughlin's Bragqadocio was given with a spirit in acting and a music in voice which were highly saisfactory. Miss Le- nore Snyder as Paolo is a charming little so- prano, pretty of face and figure and sweet of tone. "She formerly sung in the First Presby- terian church of Indianapolis, where Presi- deut Harrison attended, and she has not been on the stage a year. Her work gives great promise. Mr. Paulton’s Sapolo, the comedy art, was excellent. The scenery in the opera is particularly beautiful, and with pretty girls, good chorus and the’ other stage effects a " is an opera to see and hear. Again to night. PHE Na’ at—“Rooer La Hoyte.”—“Roger La Honte” is a French play Americanized by Robert Buchanan and Augustin Daly. As pre- sented at the National last night by Mr. Terriss and Miss Millward with a good company it moved a large audience to alternate tears and applause. Mr. Terrigs in his dual character of Koger and Luversan displayed superior verss- tility, and Miss Millward’s Julie was well done. A better character than either was Mr. Taber's Lucien, which was really a fine bit of acting. ‘The star part of the play is Suzanne, the seven- year-old daughter of Roger, doue by little Mar- guerite Fields, a wee kid, whose interpretation and rendition of the part, even to the smallest detail, was perfect. The comedy element is poor. The play ie not up to the high standard ot Mr. Terris and Miss Millward, who are supe- rior people. It interests an audience, however, profoun ly and criticism is forgotten in the emotions it excites, Again tonight. Tae Lixconx Music Hatt.—The popular Boston Ideal opera company opened its week's engagement last evening at the Lincoln music hail in Donizetti's tuneful opera, “Lucia di Lammermoor.” Miss Pauline L’Ailemand had aiready heretofore sung her way into popular favor with our music lovers, and her rendition of the trying role of the unhappy Lucia fully sustained her well-deserved popularity. The difficult aria in the mad scene was given with a brilliancy and power that roused the audience toenthusiasm and won the charmmg prima donna two hearty recalls. Chevalier Scovel as Edgar was somewhat disappointing. as much more was expected of him than he was able to reuder. Itis but fair to say that the chevalier has since Saturday been avictim of the pre- vailing disease, la grippe, and this fact may, in a measure, account for his shortcomings. He has a fine stage presence and decided dramatic ability, which was most effective in the scene where he denounces Lucia) Mr. W. H. Mer- tens as Henry was simply excellent. His voice is a full rich buritone, and his two solos in the first act were sung with ndid effect, Mr, W. H. Clark's rich basso lost none of its eolity and his rendition of Bide the Bent, al- thous a minor role, gave much satisfaction, Inthe role of Alice Miss Jennie Flower had little opportunity to display the capabilities of her vokee, which isa powerful and sweet con- tralto, and it ig tobe hoped that she will be heard to advantage during the Ideal’s engage- ment, The chorus was hardly up to the usuel standard of the company. but as many of ite members appeared to be suffering with colds it was evidently their misfortune and not their fault, Tonight Verdi's “Rigoletto” will be given, with Mise L’Allemand as Géda, Mi-s Flower as Countess Ceprano, Mr. Bassett as Duke Mantua “fussy Bisoe.

A large and enthusiastic meeting of the citi- zens’ association of East Washington was held last night in Washington hall, corner of 3d and Pennsylvania avenue southeast. The prin- cipal matter discussed was the report of the committee on the world’s exposition. As soon as the meeting had been called to order Chair- man Dawson presented the new constitution of the association, which doesnot differ materially from the old, and after some debate it was adopted. Chairman Babson of the world’s fair committee, then read the report of his committee, which went in detail into the question of a site for the world's fair and the advantages of Wash- ington as the place. The report favored the site in the eastern part of the city, and the Lin- coin park site was specially recommended, The advantages of locating the exposition buildings in the eastern section of the city were discussed atlength. Itt ok fully forty-five minutes to read the report, which was unanimously adopted, and upon motion of Mra, Biggs it was ordered prin’ 4 GOOD WORD FOB CAPT. ROSBELL. M.
