The original nomination of Dement was to succeed a sus- pended official, and he was confirmed, despite ‘fn adverse report from the committee. Betore his confirmation was certified a motion to re- consider was made by Mr, Palmer. While this was pending the ‘President ‘again sent Dement’s nomination to the Senate, this time to fill a vacancy, the term of his predecessor having expired since the original nomination.

THE PROTECTIONISTS CHANGE THEIR PROGRAM AND WILL TRY TO KILL THE BILL WITHOUT DEBATE. The protectionists have changed their plans of attack upon the tariff bill. At first the repub- licans were anxious for a full discussion of the measure, that all the political capital possible might bo got out of it, But they have since come to the conclusion that for several reasons it would be better to cut ail debate off if they can, and to Kill the bill as it drawsitsfirstbreath. One reason for thisis thata long discussion would prolong the session, Another is that there are certain republicans from districts where the tariff reform sentiment is quite strong, who, while they might be heid under the party rein for a while, could not be relied upon to stand out against the arguments and appeals of some of tie tarifl reforiners on the other side. The party have concluded, therefore, that the best policy is not to allow the bill lo be taken up for consideration. Under the present plan all the power of thé protec- Uonlsts will be used to defeat the motion to take the bill from the calendar whenever the motion is made. The vote on this motion will be a test ob the sérength of the bill, 0 ‘The Fato of Kieardo Gaitan. A CARD FROM TIE COLOMBIAN MINISTER, WASHINGTON, May 4th, 1886, To the Editor of Tue Evento Stan: DEAR Si: 1 feel myself to be in duty bound to call the attention of THE EVENING STaR, and the other organs of public opinion, consti- tuting the Associated Press, to the atrocious and slanderous character of the rumors trans mitted from Panama, and pnblished, suppos- ing that the revolutionary leader, Ricardo Gal- tan, was put to death by poison. ‘The very fact that those who‘furnished the information and attempted to make the horrible charge, accom- panied it with the explanation that the sup- sed victim was attended and cared for during Bis itiness: by several physicians residing at Panama, would be sufficient by, itself to prove that the charge is baseless, lt would be difi- cult to reconelle the facts of giving poison to a inan, and then resorting to science, either to undé what was done, or secure by its action the pertect evidence that the crime was committed. The most tervid imagination could not under- stand such things, unless by supposing also that science assisted the criminals either to commit or to conceal the crime. IfSenor Gai- tan died by poison, how is it that many doc- tors who attended him have not announced the fact us loudly as it was their duty to do? itis clear enough that in the whole matter there is no other poison than the black one of calumny, and no other victim than the per- sons vested with authority who are traitor- ously attempted to be’ sucrified, Is it possible for the suid authorities to have deemed it advisable to forbid a public funeral, and prevent display, specially after it became aware that instead of a charitable act, and an act of due homage to an unfortu- nate fellow-citizen whose death was mourne: the ceremony was to be made a sort of politic demonstration, both dangerous and badly pianned and directed, But while I admit of such possibility, I cannot but deny plainly and squarely, that in taking such a step, if taken, the authorities were influenced in the east by the savage political hatred which without any foundation at all is attributed to them, Much in opposition to this it may be said that the most prominent among the said authori- eval Sante Domingo Vila, carries with his person, through the wounds which deprived him of ‘the use of his legs, while bravely delending some enemies, Just con- quered by him in loyal battle, the fall demon- stration that no such spirit exists. Irequest you to cause these lines to be pub- lished, through the columns of your respectable paper, and sending to you my earnest thanks Jor this service, I pray you also to uecept the lestimony of my personal consideration, RICARDO BEcERRA, Colombian Minister, ee His Aretic Experiences Broke Him Down.

HEWITT LEADS THE ASSAULT—ITE ADVO- CATES REDUCTION OF TAXATION AND RE- FERS TO THE WESTERN RIOTS, The House had a hard fight over the veterans bounty bill yesterday, which lasted from early in the afternoon until nearly two o'clock this morning without result, ‘The bill was to allow bounty money to be paid to commissioned offi- cers in the late war who had enlisted as privates, and had failed on account of promo- tion to get a bounty. Mr. Hewitt, of New York, led in the opposition to the bill and made a savage ussault uponit, He declared that the limit ofjendurence on the part of the tax pay- ers had been reached, and that the discontent on account of excessive taxation was breaking out in riots, dynamite and death. Those who wanted to ‘dive their hands down into the Treasury took advantage of the delicate posi- tion the southern members are placed in, being subject tothe charge of disloyalty if they’ resist the steal. But no one could bring this charge agalust him and he would make the tht. “The question to-day,” he suid, “is social order. At all cost and at all’hazards it must be main- tained.

CAPT, HOXIE'S TESTIMONY CONTINUED — DIS- TINGUISHED AUTHORITIES QUOTED IN SU PORT OF 113 VIEWS, The examination of Captain Hoxie was con- tinued beiore the House sub-committee havin; charge of the water works extension question yesterday, and he brought forward a strong array of facts and authorities to sustain his Position as to the proper mode of constructing the extension tunnel, and to show that a con- crete lining 1s the only safe one. Capt. Hoxie quoted a number of standard authorities in supportof his views, among them Gen. Totten on “Mortars and Concretes,” who says: “In constructing with conerete the Inte- rior of baterdeaux that have suilicient thick- ness we may be certain of their great dura- bility. In rubble or regular masonry the mor- tar does not always unite itself pertectly to the stone, so that it there be a head of water it will at least fad & passage between the joints, This cannot heppen in masonry made of small ma- terials, as concrete, because all of these smail stones'are separated from each other by a tion of the mortar which will oppose filtration, In the two baterdeaux of Strasburg which i have cited, the facings were displaced, but the central mass of concrete prevented a singie drop of Water trom passing, notwithstanding the bad condition of the facings. We are frequently obliged to carry a canal ‘over a stream ot water, and vice versa. In such gases aqueducts are built. It is here parucu- larly, as in aqueducts in general, that concrete isindispensabie. If it Le tought proper to build the arches of stones or bricks it is indis- pensuble, in order to resist filtration, to make all the masonry above the arches of ‘concrete. In countries where proper materials tor mak- ing the arches cannot be obtained at a reason- abie rate it will be advantageous to make the arches of concrete, in wiich case the aqueduct will"be formed of a single piece. Arches of large dimensions may be constructed in. this way either for aqueducts or for ordinary bridg: Capt. Hoxie said that the concrete required by the contract for the aqueduct extension has much greater strength than that used by Gen. ‘Touen where “springs of water flowed over this work continually and were allowed to cover each day's work.” He quoted Gen. Gillmore on “Cements and Mortars” (1883), the most recent and the pres- ent standard,work, as follows: “Natural hy- draulle cement, to which, under circumstances requiring only & moderate degree o! energyand strength, paste of fut lime is Sometimes added, in quantities seldom greatly exceeding that of the cement, is almost invariably used as the basis of the’concrete mortar, and the concrete when made is at once deposited in its allotted place and well rammed in horizontal layers ot about six inches in thickness until all the coarser fragments are driver below the general surface. * * * Concrete is admirably adapted toa variety of most important purposes and 1s, daily growing into more extensive use and ap- lication. For foundations in datup and yield- ng solis, for subterranean and submarine miusonry, under almost every combination of circumstances likely to occur in practice, it is superior to brickwork in strength, durability and economy, and in some exceptional cases 1s con- sidered a reliable substitute for the best stone, while it is almost always preferable to thé poorer varieties. For submarine masonry, goncrete possesses the advantage that it may be laid without exhausting the water (whicl under the most favorable circumstances is an expensive operation), and also without the aid ta diving bell or submarine armor. On account of its continuity and impermeability to water, it is well sulted to the purposes of a substratum, in soils infected with springs, for sewers and conduits, for basement and sustaining walls, for columns, piers and abutinenty,tor the heart ing and backing of walls faced’ with bricks, rubble and ashlar work, for pavements in ares, basements and cellars; for the walls and floors of cisterns, vaults, ele. Groined and vaulted arches, and even entire bridges, dwell: ing houses and tactories, in siugle monolithic masses, with moulded’ ornamentation of no mean character, have been constructed of this material alone,’ Capt. Hoxie next quoted from Fanning on “Water Supply, Engineering” as foliows: “Con. crete cut-off Walls.—If the trench for the cut-off wall is deep and very irregular, it Is well to level up in the cuts with'a wacer-proof concrete well settled in place, and this may prove more eco- nomical than to cut the deep trench ofsuflicient width to receive a reliable puddle wall; also, the greater reliability of the concrete under great pressure should not be overlooked. S* * ‘The foundation of the chamber is to be watertight, and capable of resisting success- fully the upward pressure upon the bowom due to the head of water in the reservoir, when the chamberisempty. * * * Theuseofbeton or hydraulic concrete fs often advisable for the bed-course of a valve chamber ioundation, to aid in distributing the weight of the structure, and in securing a water-light floor. The com: Position of the concrete is to be proportioned for these especial objects.

Hoxie also quoted Gen, Gilimore’s do- scription of section of the Vanne aqueduct, supplying water to Paris, thirty-seven miles fone, Bult of cont comprising two and a- half’ to three miles of arches, eleven miles of tunnels, and bridges over rivers, canals and highways of 76 1 120 feet span.” He elted the foregoing authorities, with "8 Fe] on ‘ashington monument, Vernon-1 courton “Harbours: “Boston Maindrai: .” Clarke on the Telegrams to The Star.

Special Cable Dispatch to Tire EVENING STAR, LONDON, May 6.—I took opportunity to-day on meeting Hyndman, leader of the socialist party here, to learn his views about the Chicago riots, He showed great interost and spoke freely on the subject of his probable visit to America, which has only just been decided upon, I need hardly add that the general opinion will not quite agree with his estimate of the socialist movement here. I said: “What 4s the attitude of the English socialists toward such outbreaks as those in Chicago?” He re- plied: “I can only speak for myself. I have no sympathy whatever with anarchist tactics, but the Chicayo police are notoriously brutal and seem to have attempted to disperse a public meeting without any overt action on the part of the crowd, It is almost civil war.” I asked: “But would you under any circumstances de- fend an action like that of the Chicago anar- cists?” He replied: “Certainly. If the right of free speech is systematically interfered with by the police, even peaceful crowds will be foreed to organize themselves for resistance, For example, if tue London police were to act ence or twice "more as they did at our last great demonstration in Hyde park, undoubtedly we should be driven to resort to similar means, tough quite conscious such action would be premature.” 1 asked: “Are you personally ainied with any of the leading anarchists there?” CHICAGO'S BAD CHARACTER. “No,” said h “but Chicago is the very city where, having visited it several times, I should expect such an outbreak, Why so?’ Because the capitalist class is more sensual there and more bestial in its vices than perhaps any city in the world. The workers therefore see the wealth urising out of their labor prostituted to the basest ends, You may add that the predic- tion by me of a coming great class war in the United States will be found in the Pali Mail Gazette of August or September, 1550, and the Fortnightly Review of March, 1531. Lasked: “But what ls exactly ue relation be- tween the fsocial democrats, of which you are the head iu Engiand, and te views and forces thus shown to exist {n Chicago? He replied: “We are altogether opposed to what the anarchists call the propaganda of deed, which practically puts the whole move- ment atthe mercy of a tew crazy or corrupt individuals. We do not disguise tat ORGANIZED FORCE MAY HAVE TO DECIDE THE ISSUE between labor and capital, or the protectionist and bourgeoisee, but we know right well that ‘the people are not yet sufficiently educated to control the complicated economical forms of our present society; that ts, to socialize, which means production in the Inyrest of the whole community, We strive to brlag about peaceful revolution, If possible in this sense, with the consent even of the well-to-do classes them- selves?’ “You sent @ telegram of sympathy to Mr. Powderly?” “Yes, but there is nothing to show that the social democrats of America or the Knight of iabor are responsible fur the destruction of property. These conflicts will always occur when men are excited, as they then were. Such events occurred in connection with the trades union agitation here for many years, although these agitations are now re Ues as having been direct benefit.” “You have, I think, sent an emissary to the United States recenuly?” “Yes, one of our most trusted comrades, James’ Blackwell, a compositor and. trades unionist, went at hisownexpense in order to Keep Justice, our newspaper, fully advised con- cerning this most important struggle.’ “Do you expect to Visit America on any sim- ilar errand?” “I have some thoughts of putting myself in the hands of a lecture agent to deliver a series of addresses upon the preseut condition of Great Britain and Ireland, as well as reminis- cences of the revolutionists | have known.” steers earls LIBERALS CONDEMN CHAMBERLAIN Bat the Home Rule Scheme is Modi- fied to Meet His Views.
