Discussing the House Amendment Taxing the District For Half the Cost. MONTANA CONTEST IN THE SENATE. The Sileott Salary Deficiency Bill Passed. —_-+___. THE SENATE. Among the bills reported trom committees and placd on the calendar were the following: Senate bills limiting the appointment of civil engineers in the navy and for the retire- meut of a certain class of officers of the navy House bill fora public building at Gales- burg, Ill, Senate bill toamend the third section of the interstate commerce act. COMMUTATION AND EXCURSION TICKETS, Mr. Wilson (Iowa) offered a resolution, which was agreed to, instructing the committee on interstate commerce to inquire what additiona legislation is necessary in respect to commuta- tion and excursion tickets, so as to prevent abuses now existing in regard to individuals and localities, YHE BILL TO PAY THE SILCOTE DEFICIENCY PASSED. : The House bill appropriating $75,000 to supply the deficiency occasioned by the defal- cation in the office of the late sergeant-at-arms of the House was reported from the committee on appropriations (without amendment) and Was passed with the remark by Mr. Hale that it was almost the invariable rule to leave to the House itself all subject matters that pertained to its organization, its force and the economy of its business, and that the same was true re- ciprocully in regard to the Senate, THE MONTANA CONTEST. The Senate then, at 12:45, resumed consider- ation of the Montana contested election case and Mr, Pugh continued his argument in favor of the democratic claimants—Messrs, Clark and Maginnis. THE HOUSE, In his prayer this morning the chaptain said: Oh! Almighty God, our only help, we com- mend to Thy fatherly care and pity Thy ser- vant, a member of this House, and his wife, whose hearts are crushed by the untimely and terrible death of their sou, the son of their hearts and hopes. On motion of Mr. Wade (Mo.) Senate amend- ments were concurred in to House bill to admit free of duty articles intended for the St. Louis exposition in 189 which may be im- ported from the republic ot Mexico and other American republics and the Dominion of Canada. On motion of Mr. Struble (Iowa) the Senate amendment was non-concurred in to Honse bill providing for town site entries of land in Oklahoma, THE ZOOLOGICAL PARK BILL. The Speaker having laid before the House the Senate bill for the improvement and main- tenance of the National Zoological Park, hb House amendment (providing that the District of Columbia shall pay half the expense), with the request from the Senate for a conference, Mr. McComas (Md.) moved that the House re- cede from its amendment. Mr. Cannon (III. ) protested against the propo- sition to recede. He pe Sey it but just to the tax payers of the country that one-half of the expense should be borne by the District. Mr. Blount (Ga.) coincided with this view und submitted an argument in support of it. The declaration that the park would be a source of education to the peo- ple of the country was a mere pretense. The park would simply be a feainre ox city life, He Was not willing that this constant expenditure of public money, brought about by reason of influences at the Capitol which should not be considered, should go on without his protest. A NATIONAL AND NOT A CITY PARK, Mr. MeComas spoke in support of his motion. The appfopriation carried py the bill was not great. It was absurd to call it a District prop- osition. It was a proposition which had come from the Smithsonian Institution, It was to be a national park for the advance- ment of science and tor the per- petuation of animals now nearly extinct: it was nota little Washington city park. Vor- eign countries would not send specimens of their fauna and flora to a local concern wheu they would send them toa national zoo, There was no more reason why the District should be called upon to per. for the maintenance of this park than for the support of the National Mu- seum, NOT A LOCAL MATTER, Mr. Breckinridge (Ky.) said that the propo- sition to establish a zoo was not a local matter. The District of Columbia had nothing to do with the park except that it was located in the District, ‘Che amendment gave to the District a joint title and interest with the United States in the specimens put into the park and ought to give it a voice im the management, The present anomalous un-American government of the District could not last forever, and when the dissolution of partnership took place this addendum of the §\ sontan Institution ought not to be the joint property of the gov- ernment and the District. Mr. Morse (Mass.) said that since 1861 the doctrine had prevailed that this was a nation and should have a capital worthy of the na- tion, A NATIONAL ENTERPRISE. Mr. Butterworth (Ohio) said that the Zoo Was a national enterprise. It was properly lo- cated at the national capital, It might have been located at any other place, and if it had been located anywhere else would the people of that locality have becu made to pay half the expense? He was notwilling to surrender the control of the park to the Commissioners of the Dis- trict. He would not surrender the control of one of the pet bears. The Diszrict had al- ready all it could atiend to, and sometimes it was not attended to well, The District government had been severely criti- cised and he believed justly so. He eulogized the management of the Smithsonian Institu- tion, under whose control the park was to be placed, expressing his delight tbat there was one bureau of the government that did not come up with deficiencies, spring and fall, THE DISTRICT DEBT AND TAXES. Mr. Atkinson said that already, although the District had paid one-half of the original cost the title was vested entirely in the United States. There is already a debt on the District of some 19,000,000, which is larger in proportion to the value of property than any other city in the country. xes are high enough also in the District. The park is not for the people of the District, but for the whole nation. Mr. Payson asked if Mr, Atkinson would take the same ground when the Rock Creek park bill came up, and Mr. Atkinson said he would meet that question when it arose, NO PARTNERSHIP, Mr. Candler (Mass.) thought that it was not wise for the government to enter into copart- nership with the District in any of her pub- lic buildings or public bas peng If the United States goremt cad not afford to enter upon the enterprise, let the bill be killed here an¢ now. Mr. Hill (IIL) favored a recession on of the House, The enterprise was not a one. It was hardly a national one, It was more than that. It was for the benefit of the whole world. : Mr. Buchanan (N.J.) said that a 200 was for the ific thought and investi- it bad that authority te TRU HEE MEAL te URTHGARETUATApine 1 AARC RAG Tabet vening Star.

Because it had that pur- pose there should be no call on the people of any locality to help the government to support at ON THE OTHER SIDE. Mr. Clements (Ga.) followed in opposition to the Senate amendments. He recited a long livt of the things paid for by the United States in the District without any help from the Dis- trict. Witness’ fees, keeping of prisoners, &c., were mentioned. Mr. Dockery (Mo.} followed also in opposi- Pennsylvania’s Law Made a Terror to Evil Doers. FOUR MURDERERS HUNG TODAY tion.

A building was necessary for the proper discharge of the government's affairs. MR, BUTTERWORTH ASKED if the gentleman thought the National Museum or any of the educational institutions of the country necessary for the discharge of the public business. Mr. Dockery said he had not said so, but he did not know that a monkey, a lion or a tiger Was necessary to a government In answer to some remarks Mr. Dockery said itwas not the fanit of his side of the House that the people of the District did not have repre- sentation as well as taxation.

Four Murderers Sent Into Eternity To- day in Pennsylvania. Eastox, Pa., April 9..-Wm. Bartholomew was hanged here this morning for the murder of Aaron W, Dilliard. The drop fell at 10:14 o'clock. Although Bartholomew had threat- ened to give the sheriff trouble and to fight to the last, he walked to the scaffold quietly and with a firm step. After all arrangements had been completed he declared himseif innocent and then began damning all his accusers and demanding that Detective Johnson and his paramour. Mra. Dilliard, be also hung. His last words were mixed with violent oaths blasphemous language. The drop in the presence of a thousand persons s during a heavy shower of rain. A minute later, after the drop had fallen, a slight nerv- ous twitching of the body was noticeable, but there was no other evidence of distress or suffer- ing. Immediately after Bartholomew had been Pronounced dead the body was attired ina black suit, placed in a coftin and sent to the home of his family at Weaversville, where the funeral will take place next Sunday.

It provides that the common law as to the disabilities it imposes on mar- ried women during coveture and its effects upon all her natural rights of womanhood is hereby totally abrogated and the wife shall re- tain the same legal existence and the same le- gal personality after marriago as before mar- riage and in all cases she shall have the same right to appeal in her own name alone to the courts of law or equity for redress and_protec- tion that the husband has to appeal in his own name alone. The bill also provides that the rights and responsibilities of the married parents to the custody, control and earnings of the children shall be equal, and in case of death the mother shall come into pos- sexsion of the children and estate just as the father does in case of the mother's death. It is provided, however, that the act shall not confer upon the wife the right to vote or hold oflice, except as is otherwise provided by law. POSTAL RIGHTS UF INSANE PERSONS. Mr. Taylor also introduced « bill for the re- lief of persona contined in insane asylums in the District of Columbia,the forts and arsenals and the territories of the United States by placing the inmates under the protection of the laws by securing to them their postal rights. The preamble recites that the inmat of insane asylums are outside the pale of justice and beyond the reach of the laws by having no means of access to the laws while deprived of their post office rights, and that justice de- mands that this link should be legally estab- lished. The. bill then provides that every inmate of an insane asylum, both pnt lie and private, in the places specified shall be allowed to choose one individual from the outside world with whom free and unrestricted corre- spondence shall be allowed. A uew choice can be made every three months, STREET RAILWAY COMPANIES TO REPORT TO CON- GRESS, Mr. Atkinson yesterday introduced a bill re- quiring all street railway companies in the District to make annual reports to Congress, A DEPARTMENT OF INSURANCE.

Bar- tholomew and Dilliard were farmers and lived about three miles apart, Bartholomew was a widower and frequently visited Dilliard’s home, The visits resulted ina scandal and Dilliard changed his place of residence. The visits re afterward renewed and Bartholomew was de welcome, becanse he helped support the famil Later on Dilliard had reason to sus- pect lis wife's infidelity and he Porvosed tu re- move to Mercer county. Bartholomew wanted to go along, but the Diliiards refused to take him. Then Bartholomew proposed au elope- ment and Mrs. Dilliard declared she would not leave the place until after her husband's death, Two days before the murder Bartholomew called on Mrs. Dilliard and proposed to put her husband out of the way. It was agreed that ly should come shortly after midnight and dis- turb the chickens that roosted on « tree near the house. Mrs. Dilliard was to arouse her husband, send him down to the yard with his gun and a lighted lantern and wlien he neared the tree she should tell him to look up at the hens. The plan was carried out. Dilliard was shot near the tree. He staggered back to the house and fell dead at his wife's feet, Barthol- omew returned to his home and when the : crowds gathered the next morning to inquire about the tragedy they were told that Dilliard had been shot by a chicken thief. Bartholomew was at once suspected of the crime, detectives made up a strong case of circumstantial evidence against him and be was arrested, Mrs. Dilliard made a full con- fession on the day of her husband's funeral and repeated at at Bartholomew's trial on apromise thather sentence would be com- muted to imprisonment for life. Bartholomew was convicted within two months after the tragedy and sentenced to be hanged.

Alfred James Andrews was twenty-two years of age. He was born in England, and owing to hareh treatment by his stepmother he ran away from home several years ago and came to this country. He worked in the mines at various places, never staying long at any place. For the last three years he has been living at Lris- bin with a woman to whom he was never mar- ried. On November 27 the body of pretty Clara Price,the seventeen-year-old daughter of David Brice of Karthaus. was found lying on the ground about a haif mile from Karthaus, The inquest showed that she had been shot and also disclosed evidence of attempted out- rage. This led to the belief that the girl's as- sailant was known to her and that he had shot her to prevent her exposing him. Andrews had been seen on the road shortly after the girl had left her home. He was arrested on Sunday, December },and brought to jail at Belle- fonte. He denied any knowledge of the crime, but in the trial in January strong circumstan- tial evidence was presented against him and the jury after one hour's deliberation rendered a verdict of murder in the first degree.
