Washington, April 6.—-The senate gal- leries were crowded today as they have not been since the opening day of the session, the visitors in the main being uchoolteachers from New England. Mr. Chandler (Rep, N. H.) read a statement from the McKinley and Ho— bart club of Washington, protesting against the removal of 85 colored girls from the bureau of engraving and printing on the alleged ground of color. A report was received from Secretary Bliss relative to the executive order of Feb. 22 last including large tracts as forest reserve. The report covers the voluminous correspondence leading up to the order. There was quite a breeze when Mr. Chandler (Rep, N. H.) introduced a bill abolishing competition in trade and production and authorizing combina- tions to enable merchants, manufac- turers and producers of commodities subject to interstate commerce to maintain prices and profits notwith- standing business depression. Mr. Chandler said he would not press this bill unless an effort :was made to pass the “pooling” bill allowing railroads to combine. In that case he would urge this as an amendment to the pooling bill. If congress abolished railroad cem— petition, said the senator, it might as well abolish all other competition. "Is this bill Of Republican origin?” queried Mr. Allen (Pop., Neb.). “It is,” responded Mr. Chandler, “un- less my own Republicanism is in ques- tion, although I alone am responsible for the bill.” There was some question as to the reference of the bill. Mr. Gray (Dem., Del.) ironically said it ought to go with the tariff bill to the finance committee. .“Or to the committee on woman suf— frage,’ ” suggested Mr. Allen, ”as that is ~ about the most harmless committee in this body. ” Mr. Chandler reiterateo his purpose to urge this inst serious way as an amend— ment if the poo" : bill was pushed. Mr. Allen 312:». a parting shot to “the paternalism” of the bill and added, “In the palmiest days of Populism no man was ever so wild eyed and long haired as to introduce such a bill.” _Here the presiding Officer. Mr. Ho- bart, intervened, hold‘ng that the de- bate was out of order. The Cuban Question. The Cuban question then came up on the resolutions of Mr. Allen and Mr. Morgan heretofore introduced. The Al- len resolution protests against the trial -Of General Ruiz Rivera, the Cuban com- mander, by drumhead court martial. Mr. Allen urged the immediate adoption of the resolution. He emphatically dis- sented, he said, from the proposition that the American Congress must sit idly by while this savagery and barbarous con- test proceeds at our very threshold. Within 100 miles of our’ shores women and children were being butcheredand the methods of civilized warfare set at defiance. Murder, rapine and devasta- tion were playing their part in the de- struction of the island. And were we, a Christian people, he asked,.willing to Sit by and not raise our voice in defense of these people? Mr. Allen declared that Spain’s course had been one of bloodshed and cruelty. This was so notably true' as to recent events in the Philippine islands and in Cuba that Spain had been made an “outlaw nation,” not entitled to recog- nition by civilized countries. It was .time for us to act, declared the senator. Mr. Hoar (Rep, Ma‘ss.) responded in a calm and impressive manner. He spoke of the aspirations of the founders of the government in establishing the senate as the stay and resisting power against those passionate and fitful gusts of sen- timent that had wrecked every other re- public on earth. He believed in the dignity and greatness of the senate in spite of ignorant criticisms and of the scurrility of the London Times. But there were some gentlemen who seemed to think that the function of the senate was to edit a daily newspaper and ped- dle it out at 2 or 3 cents a copy, gather- ing up all current reports and rumors and prophesying what was to occur. In this pending resolution the senate was asked to give an affront to a powerful and friendly nation.

A motion to 1efer the redolutIOn in reference to General Rivera to the com— mitee on foreign relations was then de- feated, and the vote was taken on the resolution which was adopted—44 to 0. Text of the Resolution. The resolution in full as it passed the senate today is as follows: “W'hereas, information has come to the senate that General Ruiz Rivera, a‘ leader Of the Cuban a1 my Of independ- ence, recently captured by the Spanish forces is to be tried by drumhead court martial and shot; therefore, “Resolved. That in the judgment of the senate it is 'the duty of the presi- dent of the United States, if such in- formation is found to be true, to pro- test to the Spanish government against such a violation of the rules Of civilized warfare.” CANADIAN SMUGGLING. Negotiatioxn Pending to Put a. Stop to This Nefarious Practice. Montreal, April 6.—Important inter- national negotiations are proceeding with the United States for the better protection of the revenue of both Cana- da and the United States. C. J. Smith, a special agent of the United States treasury department, is in Ottawa con- ducting the negotiations in behalf of Secretary Gage. The minister of trade and commerce, the comptroller of cus- toms and the solicitor general have met Mr. Smith, and an agreement has been reached whereby, in the matter of smuggling, the fixing of values and the detection of frauds, the Canadian and American departments will co-operate, and their respective officers along the border will be immediately instructed to aid each other in a manner to be in- dicated by confidential instructions. It is found that a man who makes a trade of smuggling from Canada to the United States usually smuggles American goods back into Canada, so that there is a community of interest in the revenue officers on both sides. It will astonish the public to learn that there are no fewer than 75 large stores and as many more smaller ones built on the international line, with half on Canadian territory and half on Ameri— can. They carry heavy stocks, worth from $50,000 to $100,000. If Canadian customs officers enter, contraband goods are moved over to the other and American end of the store, and vice versa. These stores are long and nar- row and built expressly to evade the revenue Ol ‘iicers. Outbreak of an Alabama Feud. Birmingham, Ala, April 6.—A feud which had existed between the families of Bud Harville and Jack McComb, prominent farmers of Cullman, over.the location of the division line between their properties, resulted in a fight be- tween Harville and one of his farm tenants named John Atwell on one side and McComb and his 18-year-old son on the other. Atwell was killed and the younger McComb was fatally wounded. The elder McComb was shot in the leg and body. -‘ Nelson BI. “Veeks Held. New York, April 6.—A sensation was created at the coroner’s inquest into the death Of'Aimee Smith when Coroner’s Physician ’Weston testified that, in his opinion, carbolic acid poisoning killed the unfortunate girl. Nelson M. Weeks, who has confessed that he took the girl to the Hotel Victor on the day of her death, declined to testify at the inquest. The jury decided that-the girl died of carbolic acid poisoning, and Weeks was held in $2,500 bonds. The Battleship Oregon In a Storm. Seattle, “Tash” April 6.—The. battle- ship Oregon has arrived at Port Or- chard naval station. She left San Fran- ci'sco last Tuesday. On Wednesday a heavy gale was encountered.

Rochester, April 6.—Edwin O’Neil. re- ceiver of the Oregon Railway and Navi- gation‘ company of Portland, Or., who was taken to the hospital here last night, having been seriously injured by assailants on the street, is recovering from his injuries. It is not yet known whether or not he was robbed,.as he has not been able _to give a connected account of) the cause of his injuries. The Case of D’Annunzio’s Book. New York, April 6.—Presiding Justice Hinsdale, with Justices Jacob and Je— rome, sitting in special sessions today, handed down a verdict of acquittal in the case Of George H.
