Reapra, Pa., June 21.—In court here today Judge Endlich refused the application of Charles Ah Song, Chinaman, for nataralization papers. The judge finds no warrant in law for making a Chinaman an American citizeu, no matter how respectable or worthy he may be.

Loxpox, June 21.—The Parnellites adopted Very novel means last evening to give members of parliament a clear impression of the system of shadowing or espionage to which Irish leaders are subjected by the government. A barge was moored in the Thames directly opposite the parliament house terrace. Bya magic lantern large reproductions of photo- graphs illustratin, different phases of the shadowing with which Mr. William O'Brien has fér some time been pursued were projected upon ascreen in full view of persons on the terrace. As each photograph was presented a Parnellite orator gave a clear explanation of the circumstances under which it was obtained and dwelt upon its significance. A large group of members of parliament watched the views and listened to the speaking with interest. = A Town Destroyed by Fire.

Jacksox, Miss,, June 21.—A conference of colored men of this state yesterday promul- gated an address to their race in which they declare that the constitutional convention to assemble here August 12 is designed by the democratic party to abridge. if not to prac cally destroy, their liberties. ‘They de- clare that the negroes as a race should be represented in the convention and urge that negro organizations be at once formed in every county where they are in a majority or have a chance of election, with the view to the elec- tion of negro delegates, Where negroes stand no chance of clection they are urged to vote for white men who they think will extend jus- tice to their race. ES Killed Him in a Dream. Omana, New., Juno 21.—J. J. Werner of Hebron rushed into the office of the Merchants’ Hotel in his night clothes early yesterday morn- ing exclaiming: “I have killed my best friend.” Investigation showed that he had thrown dis room mate, L. O. Secrest, from their room in the third story into the court below, in- flicting what ‘will probably prove ‘fatal injuries. Werner and Secrest are delegates to the Grand Lodge of Masons and intimate friends. Werner says he dreamed of fighting a monster, and when he came to himself found that he had thrown his room mate out of the window. It is thought the men quar- relled over the Cerneau rite, Werner was ar- rested. —_————_ From Wall Street Today. New York, June 21.—The trusts, and sugar re- fineries in particular, again proved a demoral izing influence in the stock market this morn- ing and marked weakness in those shares was the moving cause for u recession in the general list, which, however, reached only slight pro- jortions, The opening prices of the stocks raded in early in the hour were generally from 4 to 3¢ per cent lower than the closing figures of last night, while Chicago gas was down 4% and sugar refineries at 75%, was off 1}<. Over 41,000 shares of the stock changed ha: in the first half hour and during that time it further dropped to71. It then recovered to above 72 and became comparatively quiet. Chicago gas, in the meantime, retired fractionally to 54, but. while the incubus of the drop in sugar was re- moved, the entire regular list showed not ouly more animation, but moved up to about the level of last night's figures, after which the whole market becam~ dull and stagnant. There was no further feature of any kind developed, Silver opened at 1051g; last suic, 10494.

The MeKinley Bill to be Resented by Retaliatory Legislation, Mr. Charles Howard Vincent, conservative member for Central Sheffield, asked in the house of commons yesterday whether the gov- ernment would require the United States to modify the préhibitive duties upon British products tiefore it would make any moditica- tions in the rules governing the importation of American cattle into Great Britain. Sir James Fergusson said that the restric- tions upon the importation of cattle into Great Britain were based solely on sanitary consid- erations, without regard to the fiscal systems onte Vincent’ thy laid on the table of Mr. Vincent! on ie ol the house a notice thet he would submit a mo- tion declaring that as the proposed American tariff will indlot & great injury upon the trade of Shefticld and i traders and artisan: house will generally, heth: f ‘ket ought to be longer given ip the competing products of» foreign state which. pute a prohibi' goo%s. Mr. Vincent's conservative cheers, tariff upon British was greeted with MR. BLAINE AND THE TARIFF. He is Credited With a Vigorous Denun- ciation of the McKinley Bill. A dispatch to the New York Mtrald today at- tributes words to Mr. Blaine, denouncing the McKinley tariff bill, which caused considerable of a sensation. These words it was represented were uttered when Mr. Blaine was be fore the Senate apppropriation Com- mittee Thursday, urging the necessity of appropriations for carrying out the recom- mendations of the Pan-American congress, A remark by Senator Hale, it is said, drew out Mr. Blaine, and he proceeded to tell the com- mittee what, in his judgment, would be the effect of the passage of the McKinley tariff bill. The Herald dispatch says: The democratic member of the. committee, ate rremepien was delighted with the tone of ‘view he is reported to said: ‘I wish you were not Mr. Secretary and were raise in this Senate to jour voice against this McKinley bill.” ” Mr. Blaine—I wish sotoo. It is most a ous, if not the most infamous measure that was ever concocted by any party, The men who vote for this bill will wreck the republi- cau party. If I were in the Senate I would rather have ly ‘ht arm torn out of its socket is bill. than vote for Senator Allison (with some feeling)—You are winking at Senator Blackburn across the table and are just saying this to please him. Mr. Biaine—I was winking at Senator Black- burn because he was winking at me, but I say eee ers this McKinley bill is an outrage and ought to be killed by the Senate. Mr. Blaine then finished the remarks he had outlined on the importance of the appropria- tion and retired. CREDITED AT THE CAPITOL. The story of Secretary Blaine’s condemnation of the McKinley bill was somewhat slow in ob- taining circulation at the Capitol today, but it is now the subject of almost universal conver- sation, For awhile the narrative was r a with more or less dubiousness, but that van+ ished speedily and even friends of Mr. Blaine seemed to believe that there was much in it that was true. What the effect will be on the tariff billin the Senate could not be even guessed at, but that the remarks are in the nature of a bomb none of the McKinley men attompt to deny. Senator Allison indicated by his refusals to talk of the matter that a very large element of truth exists in the story. The Jowan says, though, that his relations with Sceretary Blaine are most amicable, and that there was not, as wag indicated in the Herald, any bitterness in the conversation referred to. ON THE HOUSE SIDE, The publication has provoked considerable comment among the members of the House. The general understanding today that the publication was truo gave it especial interest, and it was accepted by many as evidence that the administration i not friendly to Mr. McKinley's m re, thing that has been vaguely rumored for some time. ‘The democrats are well pleased, of course, and itis said that a number of the men who voted for the measure in the House indorse all that Mr. Blaine is quoted as saying.

Warren, corps of engineers, have also been ordered to visit the same camp for the purpose of inspecting the troops these circumstances, and in conformity with the rules, the chair announced to the House that the bill had been referred—was now referred—to the committee on coinage, weights and measures. An appeal could be taken if the House desired to exprees its judg- ment upon the question, ‘MR. BLAND APPEALS AGAIN, Mr. Bland (Mo.) immediately appealed and Proceeded to argue that the appropriating clauses in the original House bill and the bill as it came from the Senate were similar in termsand purpose, and that the bill was not sub- ject to reference to committee of the whole. ne ides, he held that the point was made too ate.

In the ¢ase of Lawrence Bethune, couvicted in New Mexico of violating the postal lawa, the Presideut bas commuted the sentence #0 that it shall expire January 1, 1891. An ap- Plication for pardon was denied in the case of Mrs. Jennie Jones, convicted in Wisconsin of violating the postal laws, produce a single similar case. This was an at- tempt to revolutionize the rules—rules them- selves revolutionary in conception. The re- publicans and their Speaker were DODGING THE SILVER QUESTION. Mr. Crisp (Ga.) said that it was evident that there was a deliberate intention to prevent a direct vote upon the question. The House should conform to the rules. The rules were eftremely vicious—they did what they were designed to do. They put it in the power of the majority to do pretty much as they pleased —-to stifle the voice of thie minority. But in this ease the majority of the House had changed to his side, and when it sought under the rules to do business a way was found—a discreditable way—to prevent it, This was the only opportanity to get a vote upon free coin- age. It the Speaker was sustained and the bill went to the coinage committee, if it ver came again before the House it would come under a rule that would keep it entirely within the control of the gold men, who would alone be recognized to move amendments. If the free coimage men would do their duty they could get vote upon the proposition before the sun went down, A COLORADO VIEW. ‘Mr. Townsend (Col,) said that he had voted ae he had because he felt it was his duty to his people to endeavor to get free coinage. The demonetization of silver was an infamous crime and his people desired to reverse its evil effects, All that he asked was that the matter should be considered.

IN FAVOR OF FRER COINAGE. Mr. Hermann (Oreg.) said that the silver question was the issue of the election held four weeks ago in his state. ie had agreed to support the republican state latform, declaring in favor of free coinage. hese we: sailing order: Mr. Bartine (Nev.) said that representatives of the silver-producing states did not of course view this question from a technical stand- point. They were mostly new members and not trained parliamentarians. But he could read pe English, and when the rule said that the ill must be considered in committee of the whole, it did not say, and did not mean, that it was to go to the coinage committee. Mr. Clements (Ga.) said that the question ought not to bea political or party question, He warned the friends of free coinage that if they passed this station the probability was that they would not have another opportunity tr ia for free coinage in connection with this il Two Vacactes To BE Fituep.—There will be an examination at the rooms of the civil serv- ice commission on Monday, June 30, to fill two vacancies in the position of compiler and writer of reports in the statistical division, Agricultural Department.

Mr. Buckalew (Pa.) held that it was for the House, by a fair and open vote, to determine whether the Speaker should be sustained or whether the House itself should dispose of the bill. He saw no objection to the reference of | some of the collaterals and securities, the bill to the appropriate committee, The controller says that a receiver will cer- and if that committee did not act | tainly be appointed unless there is a change of within « proper time, the House itself could discharge the committee and itself con- sider the bill. A VICTORY FOR FREE COINAGE. Mr. Fitch (N.Y.) said that it was plain that Yesterday's proceeding was a victory for free coinage. When it came to that point he would refuse longer to combine with the rey‘ublicans, ana he would vote to refer the bill to ite proper committee. The gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Crisp) had been slightly mis- taken in his estimate of the party position, for at least some of the democrats from New York would refuse to vote for free coinage. Mr. Cannon (Ill) was for the fullest use of both gold and silver. But the ques- tion here was one of rules—of ri adopted by the votes of the gentleman from California (Mr. Morrow) the gentleman from Oregon(Mr. Hermann).
