SANGER AND CIVIL SERVICE THH AMENDED BILL OF THG ONEIDA REFORMER REPORTED BY IUDICIARY COMMITTEE 'THE CORONERS BILL AMEND BD TO DEATH-PEEKSKILL EL- ECTION AS A RAINES BILL OB- JBCT LESSON. Albany, April T.-(Special.)-His miost carnest defender, the most fatu- ous bellever in Governor Morton's oc- easional Independence and Inamdufq- ity of action, cnn scarce envy the_ posi- tlon ho is nbout to be placed in in re- gnrid to the Albany police bill. Gover- nor Morton a few days ago annpunced positively that he would not sign the bill unamended. Pressure was brought to bear, and it is now all but certain that he will weakly yield and sign the bill modified only in trivial and incon- sequential particulars, and with the features. that have excited State-wide indignation untouched. The local branch of the Platt machine will con- sent to no amendment such as would prevent a wholesale reorganization of the foree so as to make it a branch and itu ngent of Local Boss Barnes for all purposes in election and otherwise. In agreeing to recall the bill, after pro- testing that It would never be recalled, the machine contingent gives away the whole plan to make a few technical chauges such as to save the Governor the remunnat of his self-respect and \let the old man down easy.\ Itis a shame- ful situation not improved by the well- vouched ramor that the Legislature is to. be kept in session till May 15 if nee- cesary to repass the amended bill over Mayor Phacher's veto. . jol. William Cary Sanger, the genial und personally popular loue reformer of the Assembly, suffered an acute shock Friday last by the Judiciary Commit- tea's reporting favorably on the samc day his civil service reform bill and his corrupt practices. bill. 'The chairman of the comniittee explains that it was done 'to oblige the Colonel and to make life worth ..ving for the committee. 'The committes amended the civil service bill so as to make the salaries of the . Civil Service Commissioners $3,500 in- stead of $5,000, and to provide for re- taining in owuce the present Commis- sloners, Willard A. Cobb, George P. Lord und bilas W. Burt, of whom the 'first two are devout followers of the Prophet Platt, They are to hold office by designation for two, four and six years, and their successors for six yours each, Hitherto Civil Service jomin{ssloners have held during the (Governor's pleasure never more thin three years, but It appears that in the case of faithful Platt men it may be pormissame to change the programme of legislating out of office to one of leg- islating into ou.cc, even to the extent of creating a powerful commission to serve terms thrite thit of the Governor. Col, Sanger is alone in the belief that fils bill may pass. He says that since the Constitution has now established clvil service, every line of legislation might be wiped out, and still the citi- ven could go to the courts and demand competitive examinations; all of which may be true, and yet not make it true thit 1...8s Legislature is likely to be in a hurry to increase civil service restric- tions. Democrats point to the recent town meoting - in _ Peekskill, Weschester County, as a sort of first fruits of the Haines bill, It is not disputed that that was the issue, and the result was a Demcoratic landslide in a Republican town. Domoctats say that other large towns and cities when they vote will show like results. 'The Republican leaders are kept busy trying to explain why, after their econ- ony protestations and the Governor's special message, the annual appropria- tion bill now shows an increase of ap- propriations over 1805 of nearly $600,- 000, The Senate Finance Committee added $180,000 to the Asesmbly bill. Of the Increase $150,000 is charged up to malutenance of the new State excise burcau under the Raines bill. 'The bill abolishtug the office of coro- ner has met a gloomy fate in the Judi- tary Comumittec., As reported from that cominittec, there is not enough left of the original bill so that its friends will recognize It. Al it does now is to wholish the coroner's Jurles, leaving the coroner both judge and Jury so far as Inquests | are concersed. - Chairman Robbins says the Influence politically of the coroners, whose abolition was propsed, was too great to be overcome, aud thit much objection was made to the extreme powers of appointment and removal and in fixing salaries of the proposed medico-legal officers of Supreme Court judges, which, it was cluimed, would erect a more powerful political machine than the Raines bill. Mt. Robbing hkinself was anxious for a clause providing that coroners must be doctors, but was unable to seem it. It was suggested that the appointment of the proposeit new officers to sup- plant the coroners miglit be left to a new State commission, but it was ob- jected that the people hive had enough of States commissions for many years to come. * Thore is Ikely to be fun in the Judie lary Comunittee this woek, when the hearing is had of doctors dositing a law makiug doctors' bills a preferred clulin agninst estates.

WOMAN TO WOMAN. Women are being taught by bitter experience that many physicians can- not successfully handle their pecu- liar ailments known as female diseases. Doctors are willing and anxious to help them, but they are the wrong sex to work understandingly. When the woman of to-day ex- periences such symp- toms as backache, nervousness, lassi- tude, struation, pains in groins, bearing-down sensation, palpitation, \all gone\ feeling and blues, she at once takes Lydia E. Pinkbham's Vegetable Compound, feeling sure of obtaining immediate relief. Should her symptoms be new to her, she writes to a woman, Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., who promptly explains her case, and tells her free how to get well. Indeed, so many women are now appealing to Mrs. Pinkham for advice, that a scoreoflady secretaries are kept constantly at work answering the great volume of correspondence which comes in every day. Each letter isanswered carefully and accurately, as Mrs. Pink- ham fully realizes that a life may de- pend upon her reply, and into many «and many a home has she shed the rays of happiness. » CLUBS EXCEPTED. DECISION THAT THEY ARE NOT AMENABLE 10 THE EXCISE LAW. Albany, April 7.-The Court of Ap- peals handed down a decision to-day which holds thaw clubs are not amen- able to the State excise law, and the in- ference ig that they cannot be repuired to take out a license to sell liquor under the Raines liquor tax law. The decision was in the case of the People of the State against the Adelphi Club of Albany. The appeal was from a Judgment of the General Term, third department, affirming a judgement of the Court of Sessions of Albany County, convicting defendant of the crime of selling liquor without a license, in viola- tion of section 31 of Chapter 401 of the luws of 1892, and sentencing the de- fendant to pay a fine of $50. At the January term of 1895 the gran jury of Albany county indicted the de- fendant. On Jan, 28, 1895, the defend- ant, through its steward, sold and de- livered to Leopold M. Stark, a member of. the club, at its club house, five glasses of liquor. Mr. Stark paid the steward of the club for the liquors the following evening. The money receiv- ed from the sale of these liquors went into the treasury of the club. The Court of Appeals reverses the judgment of the General Term and Court of Sessions and orders the dis- charge of the defendant. . ITudge Haight writes the opinion, in which all of the judges concur.© He holds that ac Iub organized for liter- ray, social and such like purposes and not specially for drinking purposes is not amendable to the State excise law, and need not take out a license.. He also holds that a club as a whole buys stocks of liquors, and each member is an owner of the stock and liable to re- place its value when he uses any of it. Under these consructions of a State ex- cise law it is expected that the Raines liquor tax law will be declared uncon- stitutional, so far as it requires a club to take out an excisd license. AMERICANS GUARDED. SPANISH - OFFICIALS PRECAUTIONS OUTBREAKS. Madrid, April 7.-The Government officials have taken every precaution to safeguard the U. S. legation against at- tick or insult, in view of the temper of the populace as the result of the adop- tion of the Cubans belligerency resolu- tions by the United States House of Representatives yesterday and similar measures have been taken for the pro- tection of the residence of Senor Can- ovas Del Castillo, the prime minister. The Governors of the provinces have ben ordered to promptly suppress any disturbances that may occur, and to observe such firmness in their action as will prevent a repetitnon of disor- dor. The city is perfectly quict this morning. No anti-American demon- trations were made during the night, nor have any been reported from the provinces. The tone of the newspaper in commenting upon the action of the American House of Representatives is quiet and dignified, TAKING AGAINST ANY Another Bad Uppercut.

TRUE ORIGIN OF THE STORY ABOUT DR. NANSEN'S DISCOY- ERY. New York, April 7.-A dispatch 'to the Herald from St. Petersbugr says: At last we have been told the true- origin of the story about Dr. Nansen's discov- ery of the Pole. It came from Tomsk, through the merchant Kuschnareff, who is tue uncle of Kandakoff, the originator of the news. His story is that his nephew did nothing more than trausmti the report. It appears that in the New Siberian Islands there have been three parties in search of mam- moth bones. One of these parties re- turned some time ago. and said they had seen a ship in the neighborhood of the island with Europeans on board. 'They did not attempt any communication with the ship, nor did they even waitch it. - Kandakoff, to whom the mammoth hunters brought the news, thought it might relate to Nansen and wrote thus to Irkutsk, whence is was sent out all over the world . In the Siberain Islands, there still re- main two parties of hunters, who will return in November and who, perhaps, may bring some details. Ridge Road: The statement that Wm.

Bgidge Inspector Underhill Hurt at Rochester, ENLARGEMENT OFP THE POWER PLANT AT FALLS- ELI PIERCE DISCHARGED- OTHER NOTES. While Bridge Inspector George Un- derhill of Rochester was superintend- ing the repairing of the lift-bridge at Brockport, Monday afternoon, he fell from the top of the structure to the mid- dle stringer, a distance of 14 feet. He was watching his men raise a shaft inpo position, and as it swung around he did not get out o. the way in time and was pushed off the briuge. He struck on one of the stringers on his back and side, where he hung until helped to the ground. He was taken to the home of his brother, L. T. Underhill, where he was attended by Dr. Mann. No bones were broken, but he was severely bruised and shaken up. A rope which Mr. Underhill clung ito broke his fall, and in all probability saved his life. He is T4 years old and has been inspector of bridges for 15 years. One of the busiest scenes at Niagara Falls is that connected with the work: of the enlargment of the plant of the Niagara Falls Hydraulic Power and Manufacturing Company in the milling district. Now that the warm weather has et in a large force of men are work- ing night and day on the new power house, and it will not be long before this big plant will be finished and in operation. « W. C. Johnson, the engineer in charge of the improvements, says the new power house will be 180 feet long by 100 feet wide. In it there will be 16 wheels of about 2.000 horse power each. 'These wheels are to work un- der a head of 210 feet, the highest head under which water has ever been used' for power in the quantity proposed in this plant. 'The adjourned examination of Eli Picree, proprietor of. the Niagara House on North Avenue, Niagara Falls, charged with attempted arson, was completed in police court Monday, and Pierce was discharged. There was little corroborative evidence to the statement of the bartender that Pierce had arranged with him to burn the ho- tel for $100 and Police Justice Parker says that no grand jury would find an indictment upon the unsupported state- ment of one man. Enough is known of Pierce's business affairs to make it reasonably certain that he would be in no way benefited by the burning of the hotel. Whether -there was a conspir- acy, as he alleged, or not is not known. At the annual election of wardens and vestrymen of St. Paul's Episcopal |; Church, Lewiston, held at the church on Easter Monday, the following offi- cers were elected for the ensuing year: Wardens, Thomas Lyon and J. C. Hooker; vestrymen, A. H. Millar, R. B. Whitney, George A. Hotchkiss, A. G. Brown, and R. Pendergast. The new vestry will meet at the Guild room | on Saturday evening next at T o'clock to organize, and transact such other business as may come before the meet- ing. f’aul Colman, of Dunkirk, a well known young man of this city, and a member of Citizens' Hose, No. 2, was arrested this afternoon upon the charge of grand larceny, the complainant be- ing the treasurer of Citizens' Hose Company. It is charged by the com- pany and admitted by Colman that he sold over $100 worth of tickets to the annual ball given by the company on Monday night and that he only turned over to the treasurer about $20, thus making a shortage of $81. Judge Ed- wards placed him under bail and will give him a few days in which be will try to make the shortage good. 'This young man-comes from one of the best families in Dunkirk, his grand-father being the late Truman R. Colman, president of the Lake Shore National Bank. - - Notwithstanding the fact that Dan Goggoin, of Westfield, fired a 32, caliber bullet into his forchead yester- day, to-day he is quite cheerful, and ap peared better at noon than he did last night. 'The ball entered his forehead, and Dr. Putnam inserted a probe into the wound two and a half inches with- out feeling He believes the ball has gone through the brain and is lodged in the back of his head. A slight paralysis effects his left hand, and the dsctor still thinks he will die, but to an outsider it seims as if he would live. If some X ray scientist could look through his head he might find something in- teresting.
