As Secretary McCook announced the passage of the silver bill with sundry amendments the democratic side of the Houxe broke out in loud applause, which was continued for a minute, The committee having resumed its session Mr. Bland (Mo.) moved that the committee rise, his purpose being to have some action taken on the silver bill.

Prisoners Who Were Brought Up Before Judge Bingham Today. In the Criminal Court, Chief Justice Bing- ham, Charles Brown, for assault and battery with intent to kill Estelle Payne, plead not guilty. Henry H. Tucker alias W. 8. Scott, convicted of obtaining money and jewelry from Miss Helena Audenreid by false pretenses, was wen- tenced to the penitentiary for one year and one day. He asked that the court release him on personal bonds, stating that he had a wife and children and a mother dependent upon him. The court asked for the record of the prisoner and Mr. Lipscomb stated that he knew nothing against him other than a letter from the chief of police of Richmond stating that he is wanted in that city for ob- taining a watch by false pretenses, ‘The court stated that a recent construction of the law required the sentence to the pen- itentiary to be over one year and the additional day was imposed. a Richard Stanton, convicted with Grace Ott of the larceny of over $500 from Marcellus West, was called up for sentence. He stated thathe did not know at the time that the money had been stolen or he would not have touched it. He simply changed it and did not deny it to the detectives. He stated that it was the company he was in which had con- victed him. ‘The court imposed a sentonce of one year and a day in the penitentiary. Frank Cronin, indicted for housebreaking, was released on personal recognizance, ——__— THE NATIONAL UNION, The Senate Adopts New Laws and Takes a Ride Around Town.

Superintendent Porter Looking After Complaints of the Uncounted. THE WORK IN THE DISTRICT ALMOST OVER—A BIG SHOWING EXPECTED IN NEW YORK—THE RE- SULT OF RIVALRY BETWEEN CITIES—PAY OF LOCAL ENUMERATORS. Up to today only half dozen requests have been received by Superintendent Porter from cities asking for an extension of the two weeks provided for taking the census, When it seems necessary such requests are granted, although it is Mr. Porter's intention to have the census enu- meration completed as far as practicable within the time allotted. Mr. Porter thinks that the work of enumeration has gone along smoothly and he hopes successfully. Ho has received complaints, of course, but not in proportion to the amount of work done. PREVENTING DUPLICATIONS. In response to an inquiry from the super- visor at Kansas City, Mo., asking if names omitted by the enumerators can be received at enumerated at super- Names thus presented must, however, be verified a8 omissions by enumerator at residences and examination must be made of schedules to avoid duplica- tion. All necessary time and clerical assist- ance will be allowed supervisors for making such examination.” Mr. Porter intends to do everything in his power to facilitate the work. He is thoroughly sutisfied that the supervisors appointed are good men. Complaint has been made in cer- tain quarters that the enumerators are under- id and are inclined to shirk their work. He as, however, in the office daily reports from all the —_ enumerators, which show exactly the number of names se- cured each day, This record shows that in the ori cities at least these men made good wages and they had no reason to neglect their work. He has had special agents sent to the points where there seems to be likely to be cause of complaint, rl RIVALRY BETWEEN CITIES. The rivalry of cities and the anxiety to make the best possible showing creates considerable feeling. Mr. Porter received information last evening that a committee of citi- zens of St. Paul had caused the ar- rest of six census enumerators in Minneapolis, charging them with stuffing the schedules, A special agent of the office, Mr. Boudinot, is in St. Paul, and Mr. Porter telegraphed instructions that he should see that the enumerators were properly repre- sented in the hearimg before the court, NEW YORK’S POPULATION. Mr. Porter is much gratified with the reports received from New York city. It is the opinion of experts that the returns will show a much larger population than is expected. It is esti- mated that the population of New York will reach 1,700,000, which, if true, will be an in- crease of about 500,000 as compared with the census often years ago. THE DISTRICT CENSUS. The supervisor of the District, Mr. Dingman, is completing his work today, and expects to send to the Census Office today and tomor- row the roturns for the few remain- ing districts, There are three districts from which he has not received the complete returns, Two of these are in the country and today he bas two enumerators at work in each of these districts. Since the pub- lication of the notice in last evening's Stak that Mr. Dingman would be glad to be informed of persons missed or supposed to have been missed by the cnumerators Mr. Dingman has received but very few names, All told, he has only had about 110 names reported to him in addition to those reported by the ennmerators. He hopes that the citizens generally will take enough interest in the matter to assist him in making the count as correct a#possible. The Census Office clerks have already begun what is known as as the “rough count” of the District returns. As the returns of the dis- tricts are sent in the schedules are at once placed in the hands of clerks to ascertain the number of persons enumerated. If this coung corresponds with the count as shown in the summary prepared by the supervisor, which accompanies the schedules, then the returns are approved. The account of the enumerator is made out and by presenting to the disbursing officer of the Census Office, Mr. Stoddart, he receives his pay. It is probable that some of the District enumerators will receive their pay this week. es TWO OF THEM REJECTED, The Senate Acts on a Number of Im- portant Nominations Today.

Speaking of the deceased toa Sram reporter today Mr. McAdoo said: “I was deeply pained to learn of the death of my friend, Mr. McElhone.

He was an upright, honest man, a faithful official and a true friend.

A Series of Serious Railroad Dis- asters. NO HOPE FOR THE MINERS. The Rescuing Party in Momentary Peril of Death. SUNDRY HAPPENINGS OF THE DAY. —— NO HOPE FOR THE MINERS. The Rescuers in Danger of Another Ex- plosion. Doxear, Pa, June 18.—There is nota ray of hope or encouragement offered the weary Tescuing parties at Farm Hill mine this morn- ing except that they are one day nearer the completion of their work, which now grows more difticutt every hour. The loose piles of fallen slate end coal in the disused chambers of the Mahoning mine have been passed with but little trouble. The main work is now in hand. The rescuing parties from the Mahoning are digging through the fallen wreck that reaches to the root and are working now within 70 feet of where they expect to break into the Farm Hilt lead) There is asx usual a con- flict of authority on this question, as some still claim they are digging straight through into the burning mine, but that they are fully 300 feet beyond where the men are or to be. The men will probably not be obligea to dig through the solid wall after all. ‘There 1s a steady draft setting toward the burn- ing chambers and it now looks as if the men had made no mistake in their calculation aud will hit the nearest point to a hair's breadth. There are even greater fears now of another explosion since an occurrence of this morning. About 2 o'clock a heavy fall was heard in the mine, and those standing about saw the smoke that had been pouring out in an ever-increas- ing stream suddenly stop. At the same time the trip bell away down — in the _burni mine rang out loudly. Many&{thought the men had reached it to give an alarm. but this absurd, as even if alive they would have been obliged to traverse at least 300 feetof flame before they could have reached the bell. It was found out after- ward that a heavy fall had occurred in the main slope and had shut off the draft. This bas turned the smoke and heat back into the chamber in such volumes that no man could live. The heat in the Ma- honing drift is growing moze intense and only an occasional blast trom the fan makes their work bearable. This stop- page of the draft will also shut the gas and work is proceeding even more cautiously than before. Inspector Keighley is in the lead every moment now, as they expect to break through today. He will make but a small opening at first and then make a thorough test of the gas before ven- turing farther, ced CONTRACT LABOR SUITS. Chicago Will Have a Big Crop of Them Before Long.
