LADY MANAGERS WRANGLE.‘

Hrs. Ball of Delaware Attacks 11114.. Merc-
iith, Chairman of the Awards Commit.
' tee, and a Livoly Scene Follows.

CHICAGO, Aug. 7.—Ths board of lady
managers have indulged in another de-
cidedly unpleasant 11 magic. It lasted
about five hours, and during that time
many unpleasant and disagreeable things
were said, tears were shed and many of,
the ladies gave vent to their feelings by
hiSsing and uttering strange noises.

“Mrs. Ball of Delaware, secretary of the
committee on awards. read a long com-
plaint of Mrs. Meredith, chairman of t the
committee. She frequently referred to
Mrs. Meredith as the “arrogant chairman
of. the committee,” and said when she could
not attend she sent her sister to not as
overseer, when the sister had no right to a
seat in the committee.

But the sensation came last, when Mrs.

Bell said, ”And now. in conclusion, Ide-
site to say that Mrs. Meredith is an ar-
rogant, malicious, ungcnerous, vindictive
Woman. ”
. Before she had finished these expletives
half the women in, the house were on their
feet, many shrieking wildly. Others hissed
and stamped their loot, and some wrung-
their hands. Mrs. Palmer used her gavel
vigorously and called in vain for order,
but the excited females paid no heed to
her.

“Take that back! Take that back! Take
that back!” shrieked one large wOman.

“Put her outl” screamed another.

During all the uproar Mrs. Ball, who is
apretty, black eyed little woman, stood
perfectly calm and smiled sweetly on the
turbulent women. \Vhen at. length order
.was restored, Mrs. Ball repeated the sen-
tence. In an instant Mrs. Meredith was
on the floor. “So far as any difierence that
exists between Mrs Bdll and myself is
001109?“qu ” she began in a tremulous
voice, “we can settle it ourselves. But
when she says I sent my sister to preside
over the committee she tells that which is
absolutely false.”

' Here the speaker began to act hysterical-
ly. Then there came another scene of Wild
confusion. Everybody wanted to talk at
once. Motions were made by the dosen,
but nothing was done until Mrs. Palmer,
who was pale with excitement, succeeded
in restoring the meeting to order. Mrs.
Bail got the floor 52.5.1.1 and said she
would - retract the word “malicious.”

There was loud applause, 11nd on motion
the entire proceedings were expunged from
the records.

PRESIDENT MOFFATT’S SUICIDE.

 

A Prominent Scranton Man Kills Himself
in Edinburgh, Scotland.

LONDON, Aug. 7.—-E. S. Moifatt, of Scrum
ton, Pa., committed suicide at tho‘Claren-
don hotel in Edinburgh, where he had
been staying with his wife and son. Mr.
Moifatt was found lying in a lavatory 1n-
sensible.‘ Blood was flowing from his
head and an empty revolver lay by his
side. A bullet .was extracted from a
wOund 'in the right temple. Mr. Moflatt
, lingered four hours without regaining
consciousness. He had been in feeble
health for some time N o immediate cause
fer the suicide' 18 known.

Mr. fiatt was president of the Lacka
vwanna ran and Steel company. He had
been sufieriug with insomnia and nervous-
ness induced by overwork and had taken
a. sea. voyage on the advice of his physi-
clan.

His Salary \Vns 850,000 a. Year.

SCRANTON, Pa, Aug. 7.-Edward ‘A.
Mofiat was president and general manager
of the Lackawanna Iron and Steel Com-
pany, which conducts two steel mills and
immense blaét furnaces in this city. The
stockholders are mainly New York capi-
talists.

Only a brief cablegram announcing the
death was received here, and this contain-
ed nothing that would give the impression
that Mr. Mofiat took his own life.

Mr.‘ Mofiat was 48 years old. He suc-

ceeded to the presidency of the company
about a year ago and drew the enormous
sum of $50,000 a year. 'He lived at one
time in New York.

He studiedat Priceton, served in the re-
bellion as captain and chief signal officer
and was renowned for feats of daring and
bravery. Afterward he wasa professor at
Lafayette college and before, coming, to
Sc antou was interested in furnaces at
Port Oram and Stauhope, N. J.

_ A Message on 113le.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.—It is’ stated that
the president will send a special message
to congress at its extra session in regard to
the Hawaiian question. Mr; , Blount’s
voluminous reports, including, his latest
' and most voluminous of all, are being
carefully prepared at the state department
in the form of abstracts and extracts for
the. president’s perusal. The situation in
the islands is admittedly critical, and a
prompt indication of some definite line of
pelicy' on the part of the United smtes is
called for. The president, it is said, will
await Minister Blount’s expected arrival in
Washington on or about Aug. 20 and his
.verbal report of the condition of affairs.
_ before definitely making up his mind what
course to recommend to congress. It is
. probable that one of the first resolutions
introduced in the senate will be a call for
the submission to congress of the correo
spoudence on Hawaiian matters, "if not in-

compatible with the public interests.”

Crisp Named For Speaker and Kerr
For Clcr .

WE MUST REDEEM PLEDGES.

_That Was the Keynote of Mr. Crisp’il

Speech to the Caucus—Ex-Speaker
Reed Nominated by the ”Repub-
licans—He Makes 13 Speech.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.--The hall of the
house of representatives was well filled
with Democratic members when Mr. Hol—
man, chairman of the caucus, called it to
order. It was known before this hour,
however, that Mr. Crisp’ s renominption as
speaker was assured and that there would
be no contest Over the doorkeepship, as
Turner of New York and Smith of Texas
had withdravvn from the race. After a
short speech by Mr. Holman, Mr. Turner
of Georgia nominated Mr. Crisp for re-
election. This ,nomination was seconded

in short, pithyv‘speeches by Messrs. Coombs '

of New York, Hatch of Missouri-and ,Wil—
son of West Virginia, after which Mr.
Crisp was nominated by acclamation and
amid applause.‘ Messrs. Springer, Hatch
and Wilson Were selected as a committee
to notify the speaker, and a few minutes
later brought him into the hall, where he
was introduced by Mr. Hatch. Mr. Crisp
spoke as follows:
Mr. Crisp’ 5 Speech.

“The extiaordiuary condition of affairs
throughout the country has necessitated
our meeting in extraordinary session. In
so far as that condition is attributable to
existing law we are in no wise responsible
therefor. Now, for the first time in more
than 80 years we are in full power. We
can repeal the laws, and we can make good
ones. The people have intrusted us with
that power and expect us to exercise it for
their benefit.

“Our financial system should be revised
and reformed. The strictest economy in
public expenditures should be Observed
and taxation should be equalized and
greatly reduced. To these purposes are
we thoroughly committed. life must re-
deem our pledges. Let us begin the work
at once. Let us lay aside every other con-
sideration than the public good and en-

' deavor to so discharge the duties assigned

us as to restore confidence, promote pros-
perity and advance the general welfare of
all classes of our people.

“Sincerely grateful for your confidence
and esteem, I pledge myself to devote to
the discharge of the duties of the responsi-
ble position you have assigned me all the
energy and ability I possess.”

Clerk Kerr Renominated.

At the close of Speaker Crisp’s speech
Mr. Kerr of Pennsylvania was renomi-
Dated clerk by acclamation, and the caucus
then proceeded to the election of a sergeant
at arms,»the leading candidates being the
present incumbent, Mr. Yoder of Ohio,

and Mr. Herman W. Snow of Illinois.

Yoder was repudiated by many Ohio con-
gressman. who said he had appointed Re-
publicans to oflice, and Snow was finally
nominated. The vote was: Snow, 96 Yo-
der, 95.

A. B. Hurt of Tennessee was elected
doorkeeper by acclamation. Lycurgus
Dalton of Indiana- was nominated for
postmaster by acclanmtion. The candi-
(lidates for chaplain were as follows: Rev.
George C._ Woodrufi, Connecticut, Pres-
byterian; Rev. S. W. Hadaway, Maryland,

Methodist; Rev. W. S. O. Thomas,?Dis-‘

trict of Columbia, Baptist; Rev. E. G.
Bagby, District of Columbia, Campbell-
ite; Rev. Mr. Journey, North Carolina,
Southern Methodist, and Rev. George El:
liott, District of Columbia, Methodist.
One candidate displayed a card bearing
this inscription: “My platform. One min-
ute prayers. ” Mr. Hadaway of Maryland
was nominated.
The Republican Caucus.

The room of the committee on judiciary
was none too large to hold the Republican
members of congress who gathered there
to nominate their candidates for offiCers of
the F ifty-third congress. Mr. Henderson
of Illinois presided and Mr. Hooker of
New York acted as secretary, and each was
subsequently re-elected to the same posi-
tion in the caucus for the ensuing con.
gress.

When it came to nominating the ticket
that is to be defeated Monday, General
Henderson nominated ex-Speaker Reed,
saying that he would name a man whose
record and whose hold on the popular heart

.Would make a more eloquent'appeal than

anything he might be able to say.

The nomination was made by acclama—
tion, and after prolonged applause Mr.
Reed responded in one of his characteristic
speeches, his sarcastic drawl having lost
none of its pungency during the summer
recess. _

Ex-Speaker Reed’s Sarcastic Address.

Four months ago, he said, they had left
congress and returned to their homes,
with the country in a prosperous condi-
tion. All the mills were running, the
spindles playing, furnaces roaring, labor
employed everywhere, and the people hep
py. “Now, ” he continueQ “we are called
back to find an eXtraordinary business de-
pression, distrust in all circles and a gen-
eral demoralization of the finances of the
country, a condition, of course,” he said,
“precipitated by Democratic failure to leg-
islate. In this emergency the Democrats
call upon the Republicans to lay aside all
partisanship, forget everything that has
been done in the past and- join with the
Democrats to- get them out of their pres-
ent trouble. ”

There was no attempt on the part of Mr. F
. Reed to outline a party policy, and he con-

cluded by saying the Republican party
would be , found discharging its duty in a
Way to fit in with the broad measure of its
past record when it was in the. majority,
and if it did this it could be asked to do no
more.

The remainder of the ticket Dominated
was as follows: Clerk, Ed McPherson.
Pennsylvania; sergeant at arms, A. J
Holmes, Iowa: doorkeeper, J. L. Hath.
away, Montana: chaplain, Rev. Home.
Green of New York, those being, with the
exception of the chaplain, the, officers of
the Fifty-first congress.

A recommendation was also madefto the
Democratic caucus to retain upon the [rolls
Captain Currier of Iowa, George J ennison
of New York and S. A. Decker of Ohio. Re-
publican messengers: Albert Kennedy,
Michigan, chief of pages, and John
Chancey of the District of_COlumbia,the
Republ can whip, all of whOm served in
the last congress.

It is believed here that the president’s
message will treat solely of the financial
and term questions. .

.Will He Run For President Three
Years Hence?

HILL SAID TO BELIEVE SO.

His Friends Alleged to Think That Mr.
Whitney Will Run For Governor of
New 1191-11 In 1894. and For =
President Later. ‘

NETWORK, Aug. 7.—-A special to the.

. W'orld frOm Saratoga says: “For governor

in 1894, William 0. Whitney; for president
in 1896, Wiuia'mfc, _Wbitney. That is the
state machine’ '5 inside interpretatiOn- -oi
the appointments of Kilbreth and Bunn..
It Is the result of much consultation, deep
reflection and acute deductive reasoning.

‘" ““313le _o,fx the three political lightse-Mur‘

phy, "and _Floweré—who have been
studying thii" sitliutmn in the seclusion of

uninhabited Saraiogh evolved this extraor-
dinary theory cannot his mid, but for the;
statement that it is now- accepMdC cor-
rect by all three I have the highest 5::th
authority.

“Unlike the majOIity Of commentuto .
they do not attribute the appointments
directly to Pmsident Cleveland, but to
Whitney, working through Lamont. Hav-
ing paid his debts to Hill and Murphy,
Croker is now more closely attached to
Whitney than to anybody else. NobOdy
else—not excepting Cleveland .himselfg-f
could .have obtained Croker’s acquiescence
in appointments so distasteful to himself
and his organization. Hence the machine’s
conclusion No. 1—viz., that Whitney is
responsible for Kilbreth and Bunn. .

“But why should Whitney wish to per-
petuate strife between the regulars and
the antisnappers?

Heart of the Alleged Plot.

“ 'Ah, ” says the machine, ‘now you
have struck the heart of the plot. The
very weak point In W'hitney’ s possible can-
didacy for the presidency is the fear that
the corporation cry would defeat him- at
the polls. He thought at one time that
his great personal popularity and prestige
would overcome that prejudice, but he
now sees that the feeling is sure to be in-
tensified by the hard times and the bitter
speeches of westerners on the silver repeal.
That is why' In his recent interview in The
\Vorld be dwelt as little as possible upon
repeal and as much as possible upon tarifl
reform for the relief of the people. But to
stand any chance at all against men like
Gresham and Carlisle' 1n the coming whirl-
wind he must demonstrate his popularity
with the people. This is peculiarly neGes-
sary because he has held only appointive
offices. And in what way. pray, could- he
accomplish his purpose more effectively
than by carrying New York as the candi-
date for governor next year?

To Unite All Factions.

“ 'But a simple election would not suf
fice. ' He must have a thumping big nia-
jority, and to get that he musth'a‘ve the
support of all factions. So it would never
do to antagonize the machine by making a
fight 1n convention. But assume that the
present strife _ between the regulars and
antisnappers shall continue and become so
bitter that the loss of the state be threat,
ened, what more natural than a cry from
the great mass of disinterested Democrats
for a man who could unite all factions,
for a man without enemies, for a strong
man. for an able man, for a peacemakerl
And who would be that man? Who
would suit Croker and McLaughlin? Who
would please the Kilbreths and Dunn!
who have been or are yet to be appointedl
Who is the ideal peacemaker. The reply,
is, \Vhitney.”’

Whitney Thinks Repeal Will Be Speedy
NEW YORK, Aug. 7. -—“I expect the house
of representatives will pass a bill repealing
the purchasing clause in the Sherman act
without delay,” said \Villiam 0. Whitney
to a reporten “I expect thata somewhat
changed condition of sentiment on the sil-
ver question will be noticed in view of thc
financial condition of the country. With
this change the old lines as regards Silver
will not hold, and I do not think there‘
will be much delay on the part of the
house. The house, byltself, can do a great
deal toward reestablishing public confi-
, deuce by a vote to repeal the purchasing
clause of the Sherman act. ”

"Do you believe the house will take that
step without providing any substitute
legislation ?”

.“Yes, without any substitute,” said Mr.
Whitney.

“Is Mr. Cleveland of this opinion?” Mr.
Whitney was asked.

"In a conversation I had with him Fri
day night, he did not say,” replied Mr.
Whitney.

\ 3 elf}; fllquake Phenomena. '

The wilrl,. untamed earthquake is a
terrible thing tweucounter. The “quak-
lugs -“ the reading of the earth’ 3 surface
and the other incidental accompaniments

usually described are _only a lathe of the V. I

real terrors of a seismic shock. TO Same.
the noise which prece be the real shock
is more terror inspiring than the
"quake" itself. Father Kircher describes.
these subterranean rumbhngs its ‘.‘a hot-
rid sound resembling that Of 1831:. infinite

number Of chariots driven fierhely. for- '

ward, mingled with the noise: of crack
ing whips, neighing of horses and-j the
cries of victory and despair on the. part
of the charioteers.’-1§il_;-.
The sounds Whit-.11 preceded the great
Lisbon earthquake- are said to have re '
scmbled “the rumbling of empty omni
buses, chariots and barrels,- the noise in
creasing in volume until it equaled the _
roar of a thousand cannons.’ Another
peculiarity is the gyratory' motion that
is frequently imparted to Sections of
earth of greater or leSser area. At Cos-
lures in 1755 several Stone houses In the
lower quarters of the. city were turned
completely around, this, too, without
rendering them uninhabltable.
