Washington May '1 The first
skirmish over the .Semite amendment
to tho naval appropriation bill reduc-
ing tho number of battleships provided
for In that bill from four to two oc-
curred in the House yesterday when
Mr. Itoutollc chairman of the naval
committee moved to non-concur in all
tho Senate amendments nnd request a
conference of the Senate. Mr. Bou-
tello undertook to chastise same of the
Y Senators for their inconsistency. Ho
loferrod to tho war scares of the past
and tho bollicobc resolutions intro-
duced in the Sell a to and them
sarcastically contrasted the war
talk of some of the Senators
with their voting to reduce
tho number of battleships provided
for in tho bill. M Quigg Republican
of Now York called Mr. Boutclle to
order for criticising members of tha
upper house and was sustained by tlo
chair after some very lively sparring.
Mr. Houtellc however accomplished
all ho had intended desplto the chair's
ruling. Subsequently Mr. Sayers of
Texas moved to concur in the Senate
amendment reducing tho number of
battleships but by consent tho motion
wont over for action until to-day
when It is likely that the whole ques-
tion of largo appropriations at this
time for strengthening tho navy will
bo rooponcd and ventilated.
ijtiite a number of bills were passed
during the day mostly of minor im-
portance. ' Senate Proceedings.
Washington May 5. The outlined
- programme for tho Senate procedure
this week was shattered early In the
day's session by two unexpected mo-
tions. When the intended action to
consider tho rlvor and harbor bill was
nttemptcd It was antagonized by a
motion by Mr. Turplc Democrat of
Indiana to consider the Dupont elec-
tion case. Mr. Mitchell with consid-
erable display of feeling sought
to prevent this course but by
an nyo and nay vote resulting
82 to" 31 the Senate decided to
take up tho Dupont case. .Later an
agreement was effected to postpono
tho matter until the river and harbor
bill was passed the final vote in the
election case to be taken two days
after consideration was begun. At 2
o'clock the unfinished business came
up in tho form of the bond investiga-
t on resolution. Mr. 1'eiTer refused to
further dolay tho matter and his mo-
lion to proceed with the resolution
was uphold by 39 to '28 thus displac-
ing tho river and harbor bill. Mr.
Hill thereupon took tho floor and
bpoko until adjournment. Ho will
proceed to-day.

o'clock last night tlio llvo story build-
ing 430 and 13'J Walnut street be-
tween Fourth and Fifth streets was
blown to the ground by an explosion
of a gasoline endue. T'ho shock was
bo terrlBc that It was felt all over tho
city and not one brick upon anothor
is left in the front and rear walls of
the building whilo tho adjacent
buildings are badly damaged and tho
glahs in the windows In tho Gibson
house and tho largo Johnson building
across the btrcet wore all broken.
Tho glass was broken out of street
cars that wore passing at the time
and one of tho cars was badly
wrocuod but none of tho passengers
was seriously hurt. All tho horses in
the immediate neighborhood broko
from their fastenings and ran away
and there was not only intenso ex-
citement but tho greatest confusion.
Tho ground floor of 432 Walnut
street was occupied by Adolph
C. Drachs for a saloon. He owned
that part of the building and
the other part was owned by M.
Goldsmith and the first floor of this
building at 430 Walnut street was
also oc.mpied by a saloon run by
Louis Foy. Tho upper floors of the
flvo story building wero occupied as
flats. It Is not known how many peo-
ple were In tho flats or how many
were In the saloon but none escaped
as tho building immediately col-
lansed. There was no flro to consume
the debris and make certain the death
of all In the building but tho dust
and dirt continued flying for a long
time so densely that the work of res-
cuing tho victims procoeded with great
difficulty although the police and fire
departments rallied heroically to tho
wruck. Tha saloons wero said to have
boon quite full of people Ono of the
barkeepers who was not on duty at
tho time and escaped lived In ono of
tho upper flats anil was wua with
grief because he knew that his wife
and four children were in the ruins.
One of his children was recovered dead
soon aftor tho cxpleslon. Thero aro
wild reports about the extent of tho
loss of life.
Six bodies were recovered up to
0:50 n. m. and it is known that thero
arc many more.
The family of Adolph Drachs suf-
fered most severely. Drachs and his
wife aro numbered among the dead
his 5-ycar-old daughter Is dead and
Ills 3-year-old boy is believed to be
dying. Noland Davit a traveling
man for the Columbia Carriage com-
pany of Hamilton Ohio and two
others unidentified complete tho list
of thoso known to bo dead.
A most touching sctno occurred
when Fireman John McCarthy found
his brother pinioned under a heavy
beam and begging the men above to
kill him. McCarthy said there were
three other men near him and they
wero alive. Tho most heroic offorts
to liberate theso sufforors wore con-
tinued up to midnight.
Jack McCarthy Potcr Hums and
Charles Tilley were takon out of the
ruins about midnight but it Is feared
that none of them will live.
Workmen report at 12:15 that ono of
Mrs. Drachs' children was certainly
still nllvo as they could plainly hear
It calling 'mamma."

results." Trial bottles iree at be a
