THE MATTER WAS DEFERRED Galllnger and Dubois Make Speeches on the Pending Tariff Blll~Bepresent~ ative liIarsh Denounces Agri- cultural Statistlcs. . _l - “’ASHIXGTON, May 17. —— The morning hour of the senate was enlivened today by the introduction of a. resolution by Mr. Lodge (Rep, Mass.) to investigate the al' legations of attempted bribery of senators: also the allegations in a published article of various alleged misdoings in connection » with the tariff. Mr. Lodge wanted the resolution considered at once, but Mn Cockrell (Dem., Mo.) suggested that it be printed and lie upon the table. Mr. Allen’s resolution calling .on the secretary of the treasury for information as to the number of persons whose wages are or may be affected by protective tariff legislation then came up. Mia'Allcn said he understood this infor- mation was=in the hands of the secretary oft-he treasury. Mr. Chandler opposed the resolution, holding that the scope of the desired in- formation was not sufficiently defined in the resolution. . Mr. Allen cited the precedent of a. for- mer report on the same lines based on the census of 1880. Mr. Chandler objected again that the resolution called for information not in the hands of the secretary of the treasury and in effect directed an investigation which the senate had no authority to di- rect. ' Mr. Pefl’er said this was something the people wanted to know and which they will know. If they cannot get it from the secretary of the treasury, they will get it elsewhere. He appealed to Mr. Chandler to with- draw his opposition to the measure. Mr. Allen took up the report to which he referred, made during the administra— tion of Secretary Manning. It showed that 4 7-10 per cent of the laboring men of the country were in direct foreign competi- tion. There was no reason why the sen- ate should not have this valuable infor- mation before a vote was had onthe pend- ing tariff bill. \Vith regard tgflhe other branch of his resolution, it was notorious that the contract labor law was constant— ly and flagrantly violated. Laborers had a right to know to what extent laborers abroad were being hired and imported to take their places. Mr. Hoar called attention to the loose definitions in Mr. Allen’s resolution. If the investigation was to be limited to pro- tected industries, the industries should be specified, as men would differ as to what protected industries were. For instance, Mr. Cleveland was reported to have said to a delegation of sugar planters a few days ago that sugar should have adequate protection. He had 'no doubt that there were many senators on the Democratic side who would resent the idea. that sugar was to be protected. At 12 o’clock the discussion had not closed. The resolution went over, and the vice president laid the tariff bill before the senate. The pending amendment was lin- seed, flaxseed and poppy seed oil, on which the house [rate was 15 cents. Mr. Jones moved to increase the duty to 20 cents. As soon as M r. Jones had ofi‘cred his amendment Mr. Gallinger (Rep, N. H.) arose from behind a huge pile of manu- script and announced that he proposed to give a history of American legislation on the tariff since the day the pilgrim fathers first set foot on Plymouth Rock. , At 1:30 M r. Gallinger was still speaking, with the pile of manuscript before him seemingly lundiminished. Only one Re- publican (Mr. Frye) was in the chamber. He was engaged in reading a newspaper. On the other side of the political aisle nine Democrats lounged in their chairs, read- ing, chatting or writing. ' At the conclusion of Mr. Gallinger’s speech Mr. Aldrich suggested as the pend- ing paragraph—flaxseed, linseed and poppy seed oil—was of importance a quorum should be present. The ringing of the bells brought forth 49 senators, six more than a quorum. As soon as the announcement of he presence of a quorum was made Mr.- ubois (Rep, Ida.) took the floor and de- livered a carefully prepared speech. In the House. . Speaker Crisp was in the chair again to- day and called the house to order, when some routine morning business was trans. acted. Among the senate bills laid before the house was one for the relief of Louis J ack- . son, and on motion of Mr. Burrows (Rep., Mich.) it was passed. House bill for the validation of affidavits made before United States commissioners in all land entries was passed. It provides that all entries under the homestead, pre- emption, timber culture and desert land laws which are based on affidavits made before a United States court commission- er instead of a United States circuit court commissioner, as provided by law, shall be valid. . Mr. McGann, chairman of the committee on labor, reported the joint resolution originally introduced by Representative Bell (Pop, Colo.) providing for the ap- pointment of a committee of three sena- tors and four representatives to investi- gate and report the cause of the present industrial depression. Mr. Dingley (Rep, Me.) objected to the resolution on the ground that the time al- lowed the committee in which to report the result of its investigation was too short—that it was impossible to report in 30 days—and Mr. Burrows remarked sotto voce that it might just as well require a report to be made in 10 minutes. Under the rules the resolution Went over. At 12:25 the house went into committee of the whole on the agricultural appro- priation bill, and Mr. iii: tardson (TennJ took the chair. . oust ‘prlor to this, however, Mr. Springer (Dem., Ills.) said that in view of the fact that the appropriation bills had not been disposed of he was unable to call up the bill to remit the '10 per cent tax on state banks in‘accordance with his previous no- tice, but that he would do so early next week or as soon as the legislative, execu- tive and judicial appropriation bill was disposed of. - 'Mr. Ray (Rep, N. Y.) offered an amend- ment to the agricultural bill providing that the information as to the annual yield of all agricultural products since the organization of the government which the bill makes provision for should be tabu- lated and publishe‘d as Often as practicable and distributed the same as other farm— ers’ bulletins, and that such tabulation should be by states and sections of states as far as practicable. The amendment was adopted. ‘ Mr. blarsh Denounces Statistics. Mr. Marsh (Rep, Ills.) delivered a fierce denunciation of the practice of the agricul- tural department of collecting and publish- ing agricultural statistics which enabled speculators to know how many bushels of torn, how many bales of cotton, etc., would be produced and enabled them to ' manipulate the stock market accordingly. He characterized it as a fraud practiced on the 30,000,000 agriculturists of the coun- try and in the sole interests of the spec- ulators. He accordingly offered an amend- ment embodying his views and proposing to strike out the paragraph providing for the publication of the monthly crop re- ports. On this question the vote resulted 28 yeas to 76 nays. Death of Consul General Edwards. WAsinchox, May 17.—A brief cable dispatch received at the state department today from Vice Consul General Abbot announces the death of United States Con- _ sul General Edwards at Berlin today. “Vil- liam Hayden Edwards was one of the best known figures in our foreign service and enjoyed a high reputation as a competent officer. He filled a high social position at the German capital, Where he had been sta- tioned nearly five years. He was appoint- ed from Ohio and has been almost 17 years in the service of the state department. His first appointment was as secretary of legation to Brazil Oct. 30, 1877, and he act- ed as charge d’afit'aires ad interim from Dec. 7’. 1877‘, to Feb. 18, 1878. In June, 1878, he was appointed consul general at St. Petersburg and retired therefrom Sept. 20, 1880. He was assistant counsel for the United States before the French-American claims commission July 6, 1852; was appointed chief of the diplo- matic bureau in the state department May 1, 1884, and retired from that ofilce April 15, 1885, to become private secretary to the United States minister to The Hague. He was appointed consular agent at Schic- dam, Netherlands, J une 24, 1885, and went to the post he held at the time of his death July 1, 1889. He was a warm friend of Walker Blaine, to whogn he owed his last office, which was one or the most lucrative in our consular service. He was well known in social and club circles in Washington.

SEVERE STORM: OUT \VEST. Trains Delayed, and Much Damage to Prop- erty Has Been Done. ST. PAUL, May 17.-—-Severe storms in the nature of a cloudburst extending over about 25 miles of territory, with St. Paul on the western edge of the storm, did ter- rible damage; The amount is uncertain, but is very heavy. River Falls, W'is, reports a dam burst and three bridges washed away, the dam- age on the dam being at least $325,000. New Richmond, “Us, report-s trains un— able to run on account of washouts. Mrs. W'illiam Brennan of Erwin Prairie was killed and others severely injured by light- ning. All Chicago railroads suffered se— verely, no trains arriving on time and some not yet in or expected. \Vashouts still hold yesterday’s day train on the Omaha. road in Hudson, and last night’s train in Eau Claire. A cut in Hudson has been washed full, and the clearing of the track is indefinite. The \Visconsin Central trains cannot run on account of the washouts. The Burling- ton train got in very late by going around over the Milwaukee, and that road also got its train in by a roundabout way. On the Burlington the wires are down near Prescott, Wis, and definite news of the trouble there is unattainable. It is still close and threatening in- this city, and it is feared the worst may not be over. Electric car lines were much do moralized during the storm. Great dam- age was done to cellars throughout the city. Flats are flooded, and residents are compelled to seek high ground. No W’elczzme ‘fv‘m- Golvln's Army.

While It Is Possible That It llfay Go Through There Are Strong Chances '1'th It \Vlll Not—Other News From the Mining Districts.- CLEVELAND, May 17 .——The mine opera— tors met again in the Chamber of Com- merce rooms at 10 o’clock this morning to consider their side of the wage question. At that meeting, which was presided over by Mr. Johnson of Columbus, 0., a report was called for by Mr. Chapman of J ack- son county from the members present at the Pennsylvania operators’ meeting last night. Mr. Robbins, as the representative of that meeting, announced that the Penn- sylvania operators have agreed upon a rate of 65 cents for Pennsylvania and 56 cents for the Hocking valley districts. He was asked by Mr. Chapman if that was the ac- tion of the entire Pennsylvania delegation or whether the 10 Pittsburg delegates still held aloof from the agreement. His reply to that was: “It was the action of last night’s meeting and was, I think, the unanimous senti- ment of that meeting.” Mr. Robbins then said he would like to know if that was satisfactory to the Ohio operators. One of the prominent Ohio op- erators, on behalf of the mine operators of the state, replied that he believed that would be entirely satisfactory for Ohio, and that the Ohio mine owners would heartily co—operatc with Pennsylvania to secure that end. Mr. Robbins then moved that a commit- tee of five members representing each state be appointed to agree upon a scale of wages to be presented to the convention, arranged satisfactorily to each state upon that basis. This was agreed to, and the committee went into session on the wage scale. The Committee Appointed. Outside of the meeting of the operators, many operators were in favor of going into the convention with the wage scale ar- ranged on the basis proposed at the oper- ators’ conference, submitting the schedule to the miners for their further consider- ation, and then adjourning. The following committee was then ap- pointed to represent the operators in the several states in conference with the min— ers: Ohio—J. F. Morton. John Brashears of Hocking: \i'. ll. ‘Woodi’m-d, castern Ohio; H. I. Chapman of Jackson, \\'. J. Mullins of Massillon. Pennsylvania— M. ii. Taylor, John Blyth, Thomas H. Chapman, J. C. Dye, F. L. Robbins. Indiana—JV. Kenncr, JR. Seil’ert, James Norton, David Ingalls, J. S. Daley. The convention of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel \Vorkers was called to order at 10 o’clock today with President Garland in the chair. After adopting resolutions of sympathy for the striking miners, which were adopted with much enthusiasm, President Garland pro ceeded to lay before the convention his re- port. The report dealt with conditions of the association as it at present stands and an- swered innumerable questions propound- ed by different branches of the organiza— tion, the condition of affairs as he found them throughout the districts, and his recommendations for existing evils. The feature of the report, which was fol- lowed closely by the delegates, was the statement that he found the conditions of labor laws administered had not been car- ried out in the spirit of the acts themselves. President Garland stated that the matter had been put in competent hands and would be brought to the attention of the lawmakers at Washington with a view to bringing about the change desired. After the president had spoken for near- ly two hours the convention adjourned for dinner. . At the afternoon session the wage com- mittee reported. sun Chaotic. Although one session of the coal confer- ence had been held and a night spent in caucusing had intervened'the conditions just before the conference met today were still very chaotic. The operators held another meeting at the Hollenden today and continued their effort to unite upon a plan to be followed in the cenvention. A more liberal feeling was manifest, but the Pittsburg rail men and the Ohioans were still pretty far apart, the latter contending that the miners would not listen to the proposition discussed during the night to establish a rate of 65 cents for Pittsburg, with a. dif- ferential of 9 cents in favor of the Ohio op- erators. That proposition is for a compro~ misc of the half and half kind, being 15 cents above what the Pit-tsburg men are now paying and 1-; cents below what the miners demand. Strikers Make Gains. UNIONTOWS’, Pa. May 17.—The strikers made great gains today about Uniontown and in the northern end of. the region. Only about a dozen men were at work at the Kyle plant, the others fearing to return on account of the presence of 500 strikers encamped near the works. The strikers offered no violence. Southwast plants Nos. 3 and 4 are shut down, and many other works are badly crippled. The na- tional organization has notified the strik- ers that $5,000 will be sent into the region every Week from now until the matter is settled. The Old Valkyrie Lost. COWES, Isle 'of “light, May lit—News reached the royal yacht squadron today that the cutter Valkyrie, formerly belong- ing to Lord Dunraven, after which yacht the famous Valkyrie was named, has foundcred off the coast-of Africa, all those on board of her beivmdmwned. .

GREEN RIVER, Wy., May 17.——-The com; monwealers who took a train from United States Marshal Rankin in Montpelier have arrived here and made a request to be put under arrest, but Marshal Ran kin refused to comply. A sandstorm was raging, and later snow and hail fell, mak~ ing the hungry men desperate. They were about to seize a train when Marshal Ran- kin, upon information from Marshal Pink- ham, arrested them. They were they housed and fed. Colonel Copeland, with 200 soldiers, left Cheyenne for this place, and Colonel Pollard and 158 men of the Eighteenth infantry arrived at 3o’clock this morning to aid Marshal Rankin in the work of taking the commonwealers back to Idaho. Marshal Pinkham of Ida ho will reach here tomorrow with war- rants for the commonWealers, who are now imprisoned in the armory. Kelly‘s Boats Stranded. ELDON, In., May 17’. —-The‘industrial navy started from Ottumwa promptly at noon and encountered the worst section of the river thus far met during the trip. One hundred boats camped half a mile below the city, the rest being scattered on shoals, rocks and sandbars 10 miles above. The Rock Island road ran all engines out of the city, taking precautions against an at- tempt to steal trains. Deputy sheriffs have orders to allow no Kelly men to land above the camp. One boat did so, and When a deputy ordered the men off the commonwealers threw rocks at the slum ills, whereupon the Coxeyites were club- bed. Two were arrested and gave bonds for appearance. There is considerable ex- citement and some trouble is feared. There was another small row in which several men were hurt. _ Leather Cutters Strike.

One Gang Tries Train “’recking and An- other Indulges In ShoOting. W INONA, Minn, May 17.—-—A desperate attempt was made by three drunken tramps to wreck the Chicago express on the Milwaukee road near Minnesota City, six miles from here. The tramps got on the blind baggage at Minnieska and robbed the toolbox on the end of the tender of links and pins, which were dropped in an effort to derail the train at Minnesota City. The crew tried to capture the tramps. A fight ensued, and after a desperate strug- gle two of the tramps Were captured, but the leader, named Kelly, a well known desperado, escaped. Later he was cup- tured and is now in jail here. Tramps Shoot an Officer. F02: DU LAC, \Vis., May Ill—Five tramps were camped around a keg of beer near the city limits, and when Officer Fontana ordered them to move they opened fire on him, inflicting a painful wound. They fled, and a party of citizens took up the chase, which was kept up until dark. John McEssey. a farmer, joined the party and was mistaken in the dark for one of the tramps. He was ordered to stop, but re- fused, and was seriodsly wounded by a volley from the posse. - The \Vcather.
