Former Chides the Rhode Island Senator for Not Promptly Passing Tariff BUL Washington, June 23 Without a sign of a speech the Senate to-day began voting on the lumber schedule as soon as a quorum had been procured.

Whether due to the hot weather or to exhaustion of tho oratora Troni other causea tho change waa accepted as a good omen by those who are anxious to crowd the tariff bill to final action and have the session come to an end. The first vote was on an amendment by Senator McCumber, proposing the rate of Jl per thousand on sawed lumber Instead of the rate decided upon by the finance committee, which was 1.50 per thousand. The committee waa sustained. 44 to 24. From the beginning of the session there has been a decided contest over the lumber rate, and ona of tho hardest fights made by tho Northwestern Senators been for free lumber.

In the House the reformers succeoded In reducing the law rate from $2 to II. They continued their efforts in tho Senate, but finding themselves unable to make auy Impression there in the interest of free lumber they would have been willing to accept the House rate. So stiff, however, was the sentiment against them that the succeeded only in getting a reduction of 25 per cent, from the Dlngley duties and the majority against any reduction as shown by to-day's vote indicates not only that the committee's schedule will remain unchanged in the Senate, but that the Bentlment for a pronounced duty Is so strong there that it will he difficult to change the Senate rates In conference. The air In the Senate Chamber was close and sultry, when promptly at 10 o'clock President pro tempore Frye rapped for order. There were comparatively few Senators In their seats, and a call for a quorum was made as soon as Mr.

Aldrleh had indicated his desire, to have the Senate proceed with the consideration of the lumber schedule. A quorum once obtained, Mr. McCumber took the floor and presented his amendment. To h- surprise of all, no one rose to speak, and Senator Frye, always especially prompt in tho chair, immediately put the question to a vote. Thorn was a demand ror ine yea; and no hallo; resulted in a total of 68 votes, of which only 24, or little more than one-third, were cast, for the proposition.

Of the affirmative votes only ten were cast by Democrats, as follows: Bank-lv ad, Clay. Davis, fiore, Hughes, Johnson. McLanrin, Overman, Paynter and Tillman. The Republicans who cast their voteB In support of the amend-m. nt won Brlstow, Brown, Burton, Carter, Clapp, Crawford, Cummins, Curtis, Gamble, La Foil.

Insisting that the differentials on Planed or finished lumber provided by the linatioe committee were unneeo-sarily h'-Sb. Mr.

Mo umber offered an amendment reducing them 33 1-3 per cent, and the duty on sawed lumber to Sl.lT. a thousand feet. Action on this amendment was not bo prompt as on the preceding. Tho North Dakota Senator sought an or unity to explain. He claim.

The Se; NEW LINE FOR FLATLANDS.

Only About a Mile in Length, but an Advantage to People on Avenue J. Another trolley line for the Flatlands section is contemplated by the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company. The proposed line will run through Avenue J. It will start from Flatbush avenue and run to Utlca avenue, a distance of about a mil. The officials of tbe Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company have not yet made up their minds whether a two-track road would pay, and they may decide to run a shuttle service until such time as the increase in traffic makes a two-track road necessary.

This line will be a spur of tho Flatbush avenue line, and passengers of the latter will be given transfers to the Avenue cars. It is not likely that the line will be Installed this summer, but the project will bo pushed with all possible expedition, it was announced to-day. The Nostrand avenue extension is being rushed with all possible dispatch. The railroad officials are gathering the material necessary for laying the track, and will begin actual work on it within a few daya. BROOKXYNITES IN PARIS.

It has been long contended that to Insure convenience of people and lawyers who are compelled to do their business in these courts they should be under one roof.

It Is Believed That Many Miners Were iKilled or Injured. RESCUING PARTIES AT WORK. Accident Occurred at Lackawanna Coal Company's Shaft at Wehrum, Pa. Pittsburg. June.

23 A terifflc explosion occurred at 8 o'clock this morning In the mine of the Lackawanna Coal and Coke Company, located et Wehrum, Indiana County, about 75 mllto northeast of thla city. At 10 o'clock, two hours after the accident. It la believed that a largo number of men were killed and many Injured. Definite Information la lacking, however, owing to the Isolation of tho place. Over 100 men are known to have entered the mine shortly before the catastrophe happened, and at 10 o'clock, when only a few of them had reached the surface, the greatest fears were that the accident was a serious one.

The few men who escaped from the mine were burned and blackened, Indicating that the force of the explosion was heavy. None of them was In condition to give details, but from one it was learned that the explosion seemed to 6trlke every portion of the mine simultaneously. Rescuing parties were making little headway owing to the great confusion at the mine. Work Is also seriously retarded by smoke from the pit mouth and traces of the deadly afterdamp. The first report that came to the anxious watchers at the mouth of the mine was that two or three men had been Injured and that the accident might not turn out so seriously as such accidents generally do.

This buoyed up the relatives and friends of the miners for a short time, but as the minutes sped by and only a few of the men reached the surface, burned or aerlously Injured, despair began to settle on the watchers. When Johnson and the Burns brothers ucceeded lu escaping from tho pit they tatetl brokenly, while suffering the greatest agony from burns, that the ex plosion was a bad one. It appeared to them that the explosion had taken place throughout the entire mine and tha: everyone at work in the mine, for a moment or two, seemed to be paralyze-! Following the explosion then, 1 to be a flash and then all was darkness. Pitiful calls for help and groans were heard by the three men as they made tip Ir way to the Mase-rlng an I falling over the bodies of comrades who ha.l sue timbed with the first shock. Siipeniii v.

One of the noticeable features of the past three days of hot weather has been omparatively small number of pros trations aira fatalities due to the heat. Dr. Alonzo Blauvelt, assistant superin tendent of the Department of Health, in charge of the branch offices In Brooklyn, morning attributed this lavoraDie lng to the slow, patient years of edu cation by the department throughout the ingested districts. One of the prolific causes of death, or exhaustion, In the hot, oppressive months. Blauvelt said, is the diet, and this Includes liquor.

Children are often to have, and are either allowed or compelled by force of circumstances to wear doming, morn are auneu these, mistakes iff living conditions vhirh i v. poverty can rectify, but which, is is often the case, poverty Is too ignor-int to understand. Vorv naturally, the deaths have there fore been most frequent, according to Dr. Blauvelt. In the tenement districts, the children and their elders are yearly subjected to the combined of ignorance, carelessness, furnace-like walls, and a world of heat blistered brick and stone.

For years the summer corps or trie Department of Health has been working in these districts. Mothers have been told what their children should not eat, and, as far as possible, what they should wear. The warning against liquor is one of the Health and Dr. Blauvelt repeated the admonition this morning. An e.

in during this season of the year," he said, "is danger ous. Meat prostrations are caused by it. A little abstinence in the matter of bev erages, a common sense method of eating gers to a minimum. Of course the possi- would be still more reduced if it ware possible for people to keep out of the sun. But this cannot be demanded, the calls of business often times making this Impossible." Dr.

Blauvelt stated that the summer corps of the Department of Health would begin Its annual rounds this year in July, as in the past. Mothers in the tenement districts will be especially warned against permitting toddlers to eat overripe fruit, and instruction will be given in the matter of clothing. "It is a slow business." was the as sistant sanitary superintendent's conclu- lon, nut me railing on in me aeatn ate, which is becoming gradually smaller very year Is proof that In tile end it Although yesterday and last night was ppressive. as was the case on Monday, he prostrations and deaths in Brooklyn ave been very few. Throughout all the greater city there have been but Bight deaths attributed to the heat during the three days.

Old Brooklynltes remember wnen tnere were as many as 104 neat prostrations in one day. and twenty-five and thirty deaths in twenty-four hours from the same cause have not been unheard of. One ot tho concessions during the very hot months Is the permission of the Park Department, to those who care to do so, to sleep in the parks. Thomas J. Riley, the secretary to the nark com: I stated this morning that the matter of offering this opportunity had not as yet come up before the board.

"The Department of Parks Is always willing to do what it can toward increasing the comfort of the public." ho said, "and I am sure that when the time to act arrives the department will be as generous this year as it has been In the Many people who preferred the open air to the suffocating confines of their heat-surcharged rooms, slept last night on the sand along the beaches. In many ways these people, the majority of whom are poor, enjoyed a treat not even fur- awoke there was the refreshing ocean to take a dip in, with no charge whatever attached, providing they had suits and didn't need to rent rooms. A few also slept In the parks, and thev were not molested, even though the formal permission by the Park Department allowing them to do this has not yet been issued. The weather prediction for to-night is possible thunder showers and fair, followed by showers to-morrow. As tar as the heat is roncrened there will probably bo very little change, save such as the BOSsible thunder showers will have in cooling the atmosphere.

ine temperature at ciock mis morning was 77, the same as yesterday. It was cooler throughout the morning than Tuesday, however, the temperature at 2 o'clock being 85 as against 90 yesterday. DEATH DUE TO HEAT. Painter on Borden Avenue Bridge, L. I.

City, Overcome Fell Into Creek and Drowned. One fatal accident, due to the heat, oc curred la Long Island City yesterday, the victim being Jeremiah Donavan, a resident of Brooklyn. He was a bridge painter, residing at 651 Franklin avenue, and was employed by Thomas Smith, who has the contract for painting the new Borden avenue bridge, over Dutch Kills Creek. Donavan was attempting to walk across a strlngpiece when he was overcome with the heat. He fell eighteen feet into the water of the creek.

Those who saw him fall believed that he was unconscious from the effects of the heat, because he did not make a single effort to help himself. After striking the water he did not reappear, and John Kelly, foreman of the bridge tenders, and John Hurley, one of his assistants, dived into the water after him. They found that Donavan was stuck fast In the mud at the creek bottom. They dived twice before they were able to bring the unfortunate man to the sur- They got him ashore and worked over him until the arrival of St. John's Hospital ambulance, with Dr.

J. J. Qulnn. The doctor resorted to heroic efforts, but without avail. Permission was then given by the Queens Borough coroner's office for the removal of the body to the man's home.

The death of Donavan was particularly sad, as he was the only support of his mother and a younger brother A series of minor accidents also happened yesterday. Two workmen of the Degnon Contracting Company, employ. on the viaducts being constructed In the Sunnyside yards, were injured by falling lumber. They were at work on track bridge No. 4 In the yards between Jackson and Thomson avenues.

Andrew Murphy, 45 years old. of 119 Wilbur avenue, was struck by one of the heavy planks and had a collarbone broken. Nicholas Walsh, a fellow employe, fell under the lumber and had his thigh broken. Both men were attended by Dr. Cooney of St.

John'3 Hospital, and were taken to that institution. Harry Thompson. another bridge worker who was employed on a viaduct near Laurel Hill, fell about ten feet and I tires of both legs. He was taken to his home at 303 Third street, Brooklyn. SOACHES-F from their biding places roaches, water bu tod beetles.
