I Temporary Quiet Restared After the Sol- diers and Police find Fought the Mob: All Night. LONDON, Sept. 9. —The rioting among the Yorkshire miners lasted fiom dusk until midnight. It is estimated that the rioters numbered 10,000. All had armed them— lclves with bludgeons from a neighboring timber yard. Bonfires were made in the timber yard by applying barrels of oil to piles of- lumber. The flames illuminated the country for miles around. ,1 All the building's at the pit’s mouth were wrecked by the strikers, and the curves were hurled down the pit shaft. The flames szead from the timber yard to some join- ers’ shops, and all of the shops were burned. The loss amounts to many thousands of pounds. The mob was exasperated at .the presence 0f the soldiers and demanded their with- drawal. The latest report is that one of the men wounded by the soldiers has since died. Dispatches from Pontefract this morn- ing confirm last night’s report that one miner was killed and another was mortally wounded in the fight there betWeen the troops and the strikers. The riot-era were out all night destroying property and fighting the military and the police. They have burned the wooden bridge over the Colliery railway to Lord Mashanik prop— ‘erty. , The full military and police force was on duty without cause until 8 a. m. today. At 5 o’clock the riotcrs had been brought un- der temporary control. Most of the mob have been scattered, but they are likely to reassemble. ; Another striker has died of wounds re- ceived in the fight at Pontefract. The strikers throughout that district are in a sullen and dangerous mood. The magis- tiates have called for more troops, as they believe that only by an overwhelming dis- play of force will it be possible to prevent general fighting and great loss of property.

MIDDLETOWN, N. Y., Sept. 9.—Mrs. Hale liday, the’woman charged with the murder of her husband, Paul ‘Halliday, and the two McQuillan women from Newburg at Burlingham, was this morning committed to the county jail at Monticello by'Justlce ' _ Thaye‘r to await the action of the grand jury. COnstables Spott and Nicholson were placed in charge (if the prisoner for the journey over the mountains of ‘30 miles. Mrs. Halliday rested well last night. She did not keep up her frantic actions and was peaceable and submissive. lynch her was made, it being known that the officers had taken every precaution to suppress any outburst by a mob. The Question of Motive. NEWBUBG, Sept. 9. ——No one here has yet’ ' pretended to satisfactorily explain the mo- tive which could have prompted Mrs. Halli— day to commit the three murders of which she is accused. It couldn’ thave been mon- ey, for the McQuillans were poor and had no money to speak of. It couldn’t have been rev enge, for the murderess had no ac- quaintance with her victims before she drove up to their house and lured them to their death. Mr. McQuillan says it was pure devilishness and nothing else. Mrs. J. B. Smith, who keeps an employment , bureau here, tells this story: “I have not seen Mrs. Halliday since ' she was here with her husband at the time of the horse stealing. Lizzie Brown, as she called herself, came to my house one night and said she had been in this coun- try but a few days and wanted a place. She wore an old black dress, scoop hat and. an old Paisley shawl. I knew it would be ' useless to try to get her a place as she then looked. and needing Some work done I gave her an old dress, and while she washed my clothing I cleaned and altered her dress. “I got her a place at Mrs. Vaughan’ 8, and she gave entire satisfaction, although she went ofi“. twice during the month and re- mained each time a day and a night, tell- ing Mrs. Vaughan that she was at my house. She wasn’t, though, and now I be- lieve she was in West N ewburg with a gypsy band. At the end of the month she gave up her place andfor two days board- ed with me while a new place was being so- cured. “Paul Halliday came in one day. He said he was a widower, with a wayward niece of 16 years, and wanted a good woman to keep house for him and look after the girl. Lizzie questioned him very business- like, and it struck me that she was talking as though she wanted to catch him as a husband. Halliday told her he was a pen- sioner, and her eyes snapped and glistened. She Liked Money. “When alone, I said to her, ‘Lizzie, if you get out of a place, come back.’ She said, II’ll never be out of a place after I get with him.’ I said: ‘Don’t you get married to him. He is an old man, and you are ayOung woman.’ Lizzie said: ‘That’s the best of it. He won’t live long, and I’ll get the pen- sion.’ I couldn’t talk her out of the idea, and it was not surprising when she came to the house again and said she was mar- ried. That same time Halliday had drawn his pension, and she stole it from him. It was the time she had the trouble about the horse and claimed to be about to leave him. She brOught her effects with her, in- cluding an old Paisley shawl and her mar- riage certificate. She has not been in my place since. Halliday came over, and I or- dered him out, and he never bothered me again. Mrs. Haliiday had a great eye for money. She was constantly talking of it, and it would not be surprising if shekilled the old man to get his pension money.” J. Van Allen Whitbeck of this city, from whom Mrs. Halliday stole a team two years ago, is decidedly of the opinion that she is not insane. When she went to .him, she said she was a poor Irish servant employed in Newburg. She said her mother ‘was ill two miles out in the country, and she wanted to hire a Wagon to go to her. Mr. Whitbeck let her have a single buggy. This she paid for, and she engaged a sur- rey and team for the next day, saying she wanted to take two girls with her. She got old John Glynn of west Newburg to' ac- company her as her husband and then drove away and sold the turnout. - Mr. Whitbeck says that the moment she saw him after her capture she cried: “Young man, I never saw you before, and if - you have me locked up you will burn your fingers.” She told him, he says, that she could de- ceive any person, owing to the peculiar formation of her head, and that Napoleon Bonaparte had a head just like hers. Whitbeck also met Halliday, of whom he formed a poor opinion. Tralnmen Have Decided. _ MILWAUKEE, Sept. 9—11? the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad company insists on cutting wages, there will be a strike by the 6,000 employees in the operat- ing departments. This is the decision of the grievance committee of the Brother- hood of Traiumen after a. conference with Grand Chief Sargent of the Bretherhood of Locomotive Firemen, who was also dole. gated by Chief Arthur of the engineers. and Chief \Veeks of the brakemen. A Dangerous W’oman. CINCINNATI, Sept. 9.—A dispatch to The Enquirer from Knoxville says that near Fairview, southwest Virginia, Mrs. Wilson Berry was shot and fatally wounded by a neighbor woman, Mrs. 'John Scott. and that young Berry was shot and killed by the Scott Woman’s son. Several‘years ago she stabbed her brother to death with a pair of shears. Iron \Vorkers’ Wages Reduced.

Faulkner’s Speech on. the Question of Repeat—To Introduce anxAmend- ment—Routine Proceedings. ‘ _.__._.\...__ \ ' WASHINGTON, Sept. 9‘.—A’n analysis of the votes cast in the house-0'11 the 28th ult., together With the statements made by a number of speakers who‘vdted for the re- peal of the silver purchase clause of the Sherman law, has led some friends of sil- ver to assert that so far as the hou‘seis con- cerned the question of free coinage of silver is not settled by any means and certainly not in the negative. 'While the proposition to renew the coinage of silver at thematic of 15 ‘to 1 received but 124 votes ihEthe course of the balIOting on the various ,Otlier members in all veted for the use of silver as money and are all claimed as free coin- age men by advocates of that policy. - In addition to these are added by the san- guine silver men Speaker Crisp and all those who, in the course of the debate, ex- pressed a willingness under other conditions R1 vote for free coinage. These estimated at 25, which, with the 155 on reocrd. would make a majority. Upon this basis free sil- ver men in the house say that if the senate should amend the VoOrhees bill by adding some provision for the coinage of silver it would be passed by the house. ‘And they profess themselves to be greatly encour aged over the prospects of some such issue of the present contrOversy by the develop- ments in the senate of the past few days. The New Clerks to Members. , The law of the last congress authorizing the appointment of clerks to~ members of the house of representatives who are not as chairmen of committees provided with that business has thrown a large amount of_ ad- ditional labor upon the forces of the clerks’ and postmasters’ bureaus. The organize.- tion of the honse is different from that 01 the senate, a fact which accounts for the interest the clerk has' in the change. the members of the house, the salaryae clerk. Even the sergeant-atarms cannot pay himself. Therefore it will be readily to the number heretofOre in charge 0f the clerk as disbursing ofiicer ”means no small work Clerk Kerr found it necessaryrto pro- vide a form of receipt which would pass the scrutiny of the accounting ofiicers of the treasury. and it was only after several in tervlews with the comptrOlIer of the cur rency and solicitor of the treasury that 8 adopted. The terms of the law were rather pecul- iar and in themSelves furnished sufiicieni reason for- the difiiculty experienced in getting a form that would pass. -.:The law prescribed that “on and after April 1,1893. representatives may on the first day of every month during sessions of congress certify to the clerk the amount which he has paid or agreed to pay- for clerk hire necessarily employed by him in the dis charge of his ofiicial and representative duties during the previous month, provid- for any month during the session. ” .. - The members generally were of opinion ployees, but the law does not recognize the clerks at all in the transaction, so that the accounts are opened with the members themselves, and they must arrange for- pay- ment to the clerks. So far as kno‘v‘vn there are no exceptions to the list. Every mem bar has either paid or agreed to pay 880. 5C a month for necessary clerk hire performed for him during that part of August in which the house was in session. ' Clerk Kerr construed the law to include the speaker as being entitled to a clerk, in- asmuch as the only committee of which he is a member, being chairman ex-ofiicio— that of rules—”has no clerk. Mr. Kerr 1n- quired whether or not the speaker desired Mr. Crisp said he believed he couldf tworry along without one. \Vith this addition to the sum of money handled In his office, Clerk Kerr will die- burse about 81, 000, 000 annually.

The subject was talked ever informally and Mr. Meyer prepareda resolutioii which he will introduce in the has The only point of interest in the morning business of the senate were Some humerous remarks of Mr. Proctor (Rep, Vt. )directed against Mr WolcOtt (Rep, Colo.) on the subject of his resolution offered yesterday as to the bounty paid on maple sugar. He suggested that the Colorado senator might " desire to have the whole product of maple sugar coined into suitable cakes and put up in other subsidiary packages which would not require to have stamped upon them “In .God We Twist” and Would not need to be made legal tender, but would pass current on its intrinsic value, The remarks Were received with laughter.

' Referring to the president’s message, Mr I Faulkner spoke at the sterling integrity and ~ ix 4 unflinching courage of its author. But if 3 5 ' aftera full consideration of the views of the president he should hOnestly differ with ' him in his conclusions and find himself un- able to follow to the full extent on the line the president had indicated he could not- surrender. his convictions. Assuming the premise which he has laid .llown at some length'to be true-l-that the great commercial nations of the world, 111-. cluding the United States, were today com- mitted to a single gold standarde—every hour of study strengthened his convictions that it would be as unwise as it wOuld be impossible for the United States at this timeto attempt to establish free and un-g ~: limited coinage of silver at any ratio and at the same time preserve the parity be- tween the two metals. Gold and silver, although starliped with the sovereign seal of the nation. were gov- erned and controlled by the sonic ciples that influenced other commodities. He would vote for the re of the Shen- man law, not because be lieved it to be the cause of the present business depres- sion and financial stringency, not that it, "I. had induced a want of confidence on Ethe part of the people in the inte ty and sta- bility of our financial system, at for three good and sufl‘icient reasons: First—The authority conferred upon. the l secretary of the treasury by the act pre- f sented a menace and tended to depress the price of silver bullion. SeicOnd—In the execution of its prOvi-t sions, especially in the storing of bullion and the issue‘of treasury notes, it had been the fruitful source of the strongest argu- ments against the use of silver as a part of our menetary system. Third—The people believed, however, er-I '» V roneously, that the present disturbance was mainly due to this act, and that its re- ' peat would assist in restoring confidence, the want of which was the chief obstacle to the restoration of business activity. , In conclusion Mr. Faulkner said that provision should at least he made for” ad'. . ditional coinage of full legal tender silver dollars at the present ratio to an amount that would be rapidly absorbed in the busi ness transactions of the ecuntry, the aggre- gate amount, coined and the,. silver bullion in the trees- ury, which should be directed to be coined. not to be less than $800 000,000, the coinage required to be not less than $3,000,000 per month until it reaches the aggregate limit. He declared his intention of submitting . such an amendment. After Mr. Faulkner closed his spwch,_the floor was taken by Mr. Turpie (Dem., Ind.), who addressed the senate in favor of the principle of bimetallism. Presidential Nominations. The president today sent to the senate the following nominations: Theodore Runyon of New Jersey, embas- sador extraordinary and plenlpotentiary of the United States to Germany. Albert S.
