And the Senate Considers the Metal Clause. ALIEN LAND LAW BILL IN THE HOUSE. SENATE. The presiding office (Mr. Ingalls) laid before the Senate the resolution submitted yesterday by Mr. Quay for a change of rules so as to have the vote on the tariff bill taken on the 30th of August, and to postpone till next session all other legislative business except several classes of bills as specified therein. Mr. Hoar said that he desired to address the Senate on the subject, but would prefer to do 80 tomorrow, and he understood that that was agreeable to the Senator from Pennsylvania, MR. QUAYS RESOLUTION GORS OVER. Mr. Quay—I have no objection to the reso- lution going over till tomorrow morning with- out prejudice, with the understanding that it will be then taken up. The resolution went over till tomorrow, PROHIBITION IN THE SENATE WING. The resolution offered yesterday by Mr. Plumb instructing the committee on rules to issue orders that will prevent the sale or drink- ing of spirituous, vinous or malt liquors in the Senate wing of the Capitol, was taken up. ir. Butler moved to add to the resolution a provision authorizing and directing the ser- geant-at-arms to make daily inspection and examination of the committee rooms and other apartments in the Senate wing of the Capitol, and to report to the committee on rules whether he has tound spiritnous, vinous or malt liquors therein, Mr. Gorman moved the reference of the res- ee and amendment to the committee on rules, THE RESOLUTION TO Go OVER. Mr. Blair called attention to the fact that Mr. Plumb was not present, and something as to his (Mr. Blair) making a four-hour speech on the resolution rather than have it referred to the committee and defeated by delay. Mr. Gorman withdrew his motion of refer- erence and the resolution went over till tomor- row. AND 80 DOES THE LIEUT. GUY RESOLUTION. The other resolution offered yesterday by Mr. Plumb, in reference to the charges against Licut. Guy of the Washington police force, was also taken up and went over till tomorrow. BILLS PASSED. Senate bill granting a right of way through certain lands of the United States, and House bill to authorize the Secretary of the Interior to procure and submit to Congress proposals for the sale to the United States of the westera part of the Crow reservation, in Montana, were taken up, amended and passed, THE TARIVF BILL was then taken up, the pending question being on Mr. Plumb’s amendment reducing the duty on tin plate from 2 2-10 cents to 1 cent a pound and allowing a bounty of 1cent a pound on American tin plate. Mr. Faulkner called for a division of the question. The presiding officer recognized the divis- bility ot the question and then decided that the first part (the reduction from 2 2-10 to 1 cent) had already been voted on and decided in the negative, and therefore could not be again voted on in committes of the whole. The vote would. therefore, the presiding officer said, be taken on the bounty clause of the amendment. This change in the condition of the question did not prove acceptable to Mr. Plumb and he, therefore, withdrew the whole amendment, with the understanding that he wouid offer it again in the Senate, Mr. Mcl’herson offered an amendment the effect of which would be to place tin plate on the free list, Rejected, MK. SPOONER'S TIN PLATE AMENDMENT. Mr. Spooner offered an amendment provid- ing that after October 1, 1896, tin plates lighter in weight than 63 pounds per hundred square feet shall be admitted free of duty, unless it shall appear to the President that the aggre- gate quantity of such plates produced in the United States during any of the five preceding years has equaled one-third of the quantity im- ported and entered for consumption in that year. ° Mr. Vest said that he was disposed to support that amendment. If the outrage intended by the bili were to be mitigated even in 1396 it would be better than to accept the proposition of the finance committee, with the notitication that an additional terror was to be supplied in aduty of dcentsa pound on block tin, He read an article in the National Economist CRITICISING MR. BPOONER'S PROPOSITION. as leading up to having tin plate on the free list, and if the Economist was correct in that then he (Mr. Vest) was wholly in favor of the amendment, In his judgiwent it would not have that effect, but it was a mitigation of the gross and palpable [bates inflicted upon the people by the pending bill. It was well known, be said, what influence had operated on the finance committee in agreeing to recommend a duty of four cents a poet on block tin, It was the necessity of having the votes, in favor of the bill, of the Senators from the two Da- kotas, As against the statement made to the Senate by Mr. Moody in regard to tin deposits in South Dakota, Mr. Vest cited the statement of Mr. Hearst, whom he spoke of as “the best expert man on the face of the earth,” who had visited those tin mines for the purpose of in- vestment (the mines in the Harney peak di: trict), and who said that “there was not tin sufficient quantity to justify invest- A MARKED AND IRRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCE. Mr. Spooner said that im view of the marked and irreconcilable difference between himself and Mr, Veston the subject of the tariff, he was almost afraid to support the proposition which he (Mr. Spooner) had submitted. If the amendment could have the offect suggested he should vote against it if offered by any,one else and should repudiate it having offered it himself. He had not seen the article in the Economist, but thought that it had reference to the amendment of which he had given notice, and which required one-half of the tin plate (instead of one-third) to be manufactured inthe United States. He be- lieved in the industrial indopendence of thts country as far as that could be brought about. If, by the impossition of increased duty, all | the tin plate used here could be manufactured here (no matter if, during the time being, higher prices were paid for it) tho people of the United States would be independent of foreign producers and THE PRICE WOULD BE OUGHT DOWN. Mr. Aldrich gave his adhesion to Mr, Spooner’s amendment as being a requirement that American manufactarers shall give proof of their good faith in the matter; he himself had no reasonable doubt but that the American producer of tin plate would manufaetare within the five years @ very much larger proportion of the article than one-third. ian Mr. McPherson asked that the amendment should fe, over till tomorrow and_be printed. Mr. Cullom suggested that it would be better to dispose of it now. ‘MR. VEST WANTS TIME. ‘Mr. Vest said that, since he had heard the explanation of the Senator from Wisconsin, and especially since he had heard what had been said by the Senator from Rhode Island, he wanted some time to examine the ment. sianghter.) He “4 the Greeks even when they were bearing gifts." The Senator from Wisconsin had paid him o hig that public avowal, No her com; it could be paid him., = — Mr. Spooner—Yon are very welcome, ‘MR. MOODY REPLIES TO MR. VEST. Mr. Moody replied to that portion of Mr. Vest’s remark that referred to tin mines in Da- kota and Wyoming and said that Mr. Hearst had not visited them within five years, and that it was within that time that all the develop- mente of tin mines had occurred. Mr. Spooner’s amendment went over till to- morrow and the next paragraph of the bill (paragraph 133, page 29,) was read. It refers to sheet iron or sheet steel, polished, planished or glanced, taxing it 244 cents a pound, and to taggers’ iron, taxing it ¢ cent per pound addi- tional. Mr. McPherson moved to reduce those rates to 2 cents and 1-10 cent respectively. Rejected without a division. No further amendment was offered to paragraph 138. Paragraph 139, referring to tin plates, terne plates and taggers’ plates, and paragraph 140, referring to steel ingots, were agreed to with the committee amendments. Anamendment to paragraph 140, offered by Mr. McPherson, rejected. Yeas, 20: nays, 26. Mr. Plumb was the only republican Senator who voted for McPherson's amendment. Mr. Ingalls did not yote and Messrs, Manderson and Paddock voted against it, Paragraph 141 (page 31) was then taken up. It refers to wire rods. BOUNTY TO A NEW JERSFY FIRM. Mr. McPherson offered an amendment to re- duce the duty on wire rods used for making wire fencing. After discussion it was rejected, Mr. Aldrich suggesting that the effect of it would be to give nome to a New Jersey firm engaged in that business, and expressing sur- prise that the Senator (Mr. Mcl’herson) was 80 Inconsistent as to appeal for a bounty. Mr. MePhereon denied that there was any ap- peal for a bounty in his proposition. An amendment offered, by Mr. Vest was also rejected—yeas 22, nays 27—Measra. Paddock and Plumb voting with the democrats, Paragraph 142, page $2, taxing wire made of iron or steel having been reached, Par. Me- Pherson moved to reduce the rates fixed in the bill on four sizes { cent per pound. Mr. Carlisle called attention to the several provisos contained in the paragraph and which fix ad valorem rates. Allof these, he said,were large increases of duty. There were, he said, clusses of wire included, and the increase of duty was in all but four or five of them—the in- crease 11 some of them being nearly four times the presentrate. He characterized it as an in- sidious and indirect way of increasing duties. HOUSE. On motion of Mr. O'Neill (Pa.) Senate joint resolution was passed extending the privileges of the library of Congress to the interstate commerce commissioners, It was amended by extending a like privilege to the chief of en- gineers of the army. THE NAT M'KAY BILL FINALLY PASSED, Mr. Thomas (Wis.) moved to lay upon the table the motion (made some days ago by Mr. Hayes of Iowa) toreconsider the motion by which the House passed the Nat McKay bill. It was agreed to—yeas, 92; nays, 79. This finally passes the bill. THE ALIEN LAND LAW BILL. The Speaker stated that the unfinished busi- ness in the morning hour (the first morning hour the House has bad for several months) was a bill to amend the alien land law, Mr. Carter (Mont.) explained that the bill had in view the repeal of the alien land jawin so far as that law referred to the ownership of mines in the territories. ‘The alien land bill had paesed the House tho Sist of July, 1886, Mr. Springer (il1.)—What date? Mr. Carter—3ist July, 1886, Mr. Springer—Is that the inst time we had a morning hour? (Laughter.] Mr. Carter—The gentleman was in the House at that time and ought to know. [Laughter.) Mr. Carter (continuing) said that the alien bill had been passed by ite Hoses afhac ce very slight consideration, He insisted that the ownership of mines of gold, silver, lead, tin, cinnabar and copper in the’ territories was not intended to be affected by the bill, He had no quarrel to make with the existing lawin so far as it related to agriculture and lumber lands. He did insist that foreign capital should not be discouraged or prohibited from engaging in the precarious enterprise of developing the mines of this country. Mr. Buchanan (N.J.) inquired whether the passage of the pending measure would not render it passible for FOREIGN CAPITAL TO CONTROL EVERY MINE IN THE UNITED STATES. Mr. Carter replied that for a century prior to the enactment of the law the privilege stood wide open to foreigners to invest in our mines, The history of that century showed that the financial results were not commensurate with the investment made by foreigners in that class of property. Mr. Allen (Mich.) sotto voce—In other words they were scooped. r. Buchanan asked whether the state of af- fairs he alluded to could not exist Mr. Carter replied that such a state of affairs might have existed prior to the law of 1886. Mr. Buchanan inquired whether it would not be possible for Englishmen to buy up every lead mine in the United States? Mr. Carter—If they are willing to pay more than the mines are worth. Mr. Buchanan—But the bill makes it possi- ble, does it not? Mr. Carter—It is a commercial impossibility, Mr. Anderson (Kan.)—Would it not be 4 LEGAL POSSIBILITY? Mr. Carter—It would be rendered possible for men from anywhere having capital to on- gage in the precarious work of developing the mines with that capital. Mr. Carter, continuing, contended that no one could hesitate to draw a distinction be- tween agricultural and mining lands, While the ownership of agricultural lands should be regulated, cheap capital should be in- yited from everywhere to be invested in the hazardous business of developing mines and giving business which otherwise would be crowded into other lines of labor and thus cheapen the wages of toil. It was not the millionaire who discovered the mine; it was the toiling workman. If the benefit of this discovery was limited to the market of the United States the men who had money to in- vest in mines were given a monopoly. If the doors were thrown wide open the men whose toil had discovered the treasure were given the privilege of enjoying the benefit of it. OPPOSED THE BILL, Mr. Chipman (Mich.) opposed the measure. It proposed to abolish all the restrictions and safeguards which, inconsonance with the spirit of the age, had been thrown around the public lands of the territories. If the original act was right, this measure was wrong. If, at the time the act was passed, there was a need for such legislation, the history of the country since demonstrated that such legislation was much more necessary now. There was not a meeting of a Farmers’ Ailiance or of a labor organiza- tion from one end of the country to the other from which the demand had not gone forth, not for the repeal of this legis- lation, but for stronger legislation on the same subject The demand was ‘American land for American men; homes for our own people.” He was in sympathy with this demand. The passage of this bill might result in gigantic corporations controlled by foreigners who had no interest in our country. Pending further debate the morning hour ex- pired and the bill went over. AGRICULTURAL BILIg, Mr. Cannon (Il), from the committee on rules, reported a resolution setting apart to- day, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday and Tuesday and Wednesday of next week for the consideration of bills reported from’ the ‘committee on agriculture.

A QUIET DAY EVERYWHERE. The Strikers Expecting Decisive Action Sometime Today. ~~ CARDINAL NEWMAN'S FUNERAL BEGUN. —-_. TWO MILLION TO WIN. What the New York Central Will Bet On Its Ability to Beat the Strikers. New Yorx, August 19.—Mr. Webb was on hand at the Grand Central depot at an early hour this morning. He said: “For the past few days I have been making arrangements to get 8 new force of firemen in case those on the road should go ont and have succeeded so far that any delay from that cause will be tem- porary. I have enough assurances from the firemen on my road toconvince me that in case they are ordered ont s number of them will not go. Then if necessary I will stop every particle of freight trafic, close up*every yard and keep them closed until I have obtained a sufficient number of new firemen to resume the freight trafic. This, I thimk, I can accom- plish within forty-eight hours, as I have long liste of men who will come at the wages we will pay. My road will expend $2,000,000 to win, and in my action Iam backed up by the stockholders.” Although the name of Chief Sargeant of the Firemen’s Brotherhood appears on the register of the Grand Union Hotel Mr. Sergeant has not errived up to noon. and his advent was eagerly looked for, When he gets here a meeting of the Supreme Council of the Federa- tion of Railway Employes will be held at once. WHAT MR. POWDERLY Says, Grand Master Workman Powderly and Sec- retary Hayes of the Knights of Labor arrived here at 6 o'clock this morning by the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad. and regis- tered at the St. Cloud Hotel. Grand Chiet Sar- gent of the Federation of Labor, 8. FE. Wilkin- son of the Trainmen’'sAssociation, Chairman Geo. Howard of the Railway Conductors and Grand Master Sweeney of the Switchmen’s Mutual Aid Association are at the Grand Union Hotel. Up to 11 o'clock no meeting of the ieaders was held. When asked by areporter about the settle- ment of the trouble Mr. Powderly suid: **Mat- ters connected with the New York Central trouble have reached a most serious and crit- ical point and one that will interest the people of the country more than they imagine at the present time. I do not mean to say that there will be a general strike and I do not deny it. “There will be a meeting today of the gencral executive board of the Knights of Labor. which will be attended by the representatives ofthe trainmen, firemen, switchmen and con- ductors, and at that meeting fiual action will be taken.” Messrs. Howard and Wilkeson were seen in their room at the Grand Union Hotel. “What program have you for today?” Mr. Wilkeson was asked. “Ihave no authority to eay anything. Mr. Howard and myself were summoned here by Mr. Sargeant. and as he is not here yet we must wait until he arrives and learn what he hastoray, It is not probably that Mr. Sare geant will call upon Mr. Webb the moment he arrives.” Sargeant is looked for at 3 o'clock this after- noon. He stopped at Albany on his way down. Hence the delay. BUFFALO FREIGHT BLOCKED. Burraxo, N. Y., August 19.—There is but lit- tle change to be noted either in the strike situ- ation or the condition of the Central's freight tratlic this morning.

Trenholm, grand president of the Steam Rail- road Men's Protective Union of New England, is expected here today. Mr. Lee received a cipher message from Trenholm last mght, the contents of which have not been divulged, but a jeading striker says there is every probability that the members of that body will go out if the Central trouble is not settled in a day or two, The Knights of Labor firemen on the lake boats are prepared to go out if any at- tempt is made to handle non-union freight by that route, Railroad men who have been talked with frankly admit that at no time since the strike began has the outlook been 80 ominous as no All concede that the probabilities are that by tomorrow night the strike wili be ended or it will spread to about allthe branches of this operating department, and if need be to the other roads in the Vanderbilt system, Before leaving for New York last night Grand Master Sweeny had a conference with Superintendent Seabert of the Delaware, Lackawanna and West- crn road, and it is said it was agreed between them that that road would keep its hands off Central freight, A STARTLING RUMOR.

Capt. Hox says he has orders to act under the first instructions re- ceived.
