Mr. McKinley (Ohio), from the committee on ways and means, reported back the tariff bill with Senate amendments, with the recommen- dation that the amendments be non-concurred in, Referred to committee of the whole. TO CONDEMN KENNEDY'S SPEECH. Mr. McKinley then offered a resolntion from the committee on rules, but before it could be read Mr. Enlo2 (Tenn.} rose to a question of pera He offered the following resolu- jon: “Resolved, That the clerk of the House of Repreventativos be directed to communicate to the Senate the fact thatthe House reprobates and condemns the utterances of the Hon. Robt. P. Kennedy,a Representative from the state of Ohio, delivered in the House Septemb-r 3, re- flecting upon the character and integrity of the Senate as a body. MR. DINGLEY’S POINT OF ORDET.. Mr. Dingley (Me.) raised the point of order that this didnot present such a question of privileges as would take the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. McKinley) from the floor, FOR IMMEDIATE CONSIDERATION OF TRE TARIFF BILL. At the suggestion of the Speaker, Mr. Enloe withdrew his resolution for the present, and Mr. McKinley, from the committee on rules, reported a resolution for the immediate consid- eration of the tariff bili in the House. After two hours’ general debate it shall be in order to move to nou-concur in the Senate amendments in gross and agree to the com- mittee of conference asked for by the Senate, and the House shall without further delay or othermotion proceed to vote on said motion, The previous question was ordered—yeas, 116; nays, 71. A PROTEST FROM GEORGIA, Mr. Blount (Ga.) protested against the reso- tution, contending that it was a parody on de- liberation. It would have been better to have provided for no debate, for this course would, at least, have had the semblance of directness, The right to vote on any separate amendment was denied to every member by this order. The House should reject this order. It was an un- fortunate spectacle. An order was to be made with a view of preventing the testing of the sentiment of the House ou any special propo- sition, The purpose of the order was to take the whole subject of taxation from tire House. The resolution stripped the rules of the last piece of conservatism whicn they contained. Under the pretense of doing business the majority had broken down the rules; it had abrogated the power of the House to consider the subject of taxation, and had relegated that subject to a small number of conferees. And (sarcastically) this was busi- ness, Mr, McMillin (Lenn.) also opposed the reso- Intion and criticised the committee on rules for reporting it. The majority in caucus had de- termined not only that the minority should be throtied but that the Plumed Knight should be throttled. THE RESOLUTION ADOPTED, The resolution was then adopted. - Yeas, 114; nays, 72, Mr. McKinley (Ohio) gave a brief statemen of the Senate amendments, but entered into no argument as to their propriety or impropriety. WHAT WAS TRE, NEED OF THIS TARIFF BILL? ‘Mr. Flower (N.Y.) seid that the estimated revenue for the year was $450,000,000, This Congress had appropriated $461,000,000, What was the need of this tariff bill? Why not leave the present law as it was, with an amendment for reciprocity which meant reciprocity and not one of these jumping-jacks, the string of which the President could pull at any time? He charged ths republican majority with de- moralizing business, He believed that the pending bill was demoralizing the country, and would demoralize it still further. The true business of this Congress was to economize—to cheese-pare, if necessary—to cut down the pee of the government; that they should equal the revenues and no more. That was om and that was business. Mr. McRae (Ark.) opposed the bill both in its iginal form and as amended, on the general that it discrimiuated ngainst the farm- ene FOR FREE FISH. Mr, Farquhar of New York, in behalf of the Senate amendments for two hours in the House before sending the matter to conference. At the meeting of the ways and means committee the democrats demanded formal votes on all amendments which reduced duties, but, being outvoted, they did not demand a vote on the general non-concurrence. UNANIMOUS FOR BILL GOING INTO EFFECT FEB- RuarRY 1, There was a unanimous agreement in com- mittee that time within which goods imported before the enactment of the law may be taken from bond at the present rates should be ex- tended to February 1 or later. After the bill comes trom conference there will be two or three days for debate. ‘The republicans who wanted separate votes on binding twine and sugar betore sending the bill to conference have yielded to the caucus’ decision, MAKING THINGS EASIER. Measures Taken ‘by the Treasury De- partment to Relieve the Money Market. There is a fecling of relief at the Treasury Department this morning over the latest as- pects of the money market. It is thought that the worst is over and that. the Secretary's measures will speedily place matters on their proper basis again. The most potent factor, it is regarded, is the extension of the period for the withdrawal of goods from bonded ware houses to February 1, thus giving importers more time to obtain money for the payment of duties and also a chance to remove the goods before the McKinley bill takes effect, The former time was November 1. ueton said this morning that he- it this latter measure afforded fully 50 per cent of the relief and that the danger has beon passed. The following circular has been issued by the Treasury: “In pursuance of the authority contained in section 2 of the act of March 3. 1881, public no- tice is hereby given that, with a view to the purchase of $16,000,000 of the bonds of the 4 per cent loan of 1907. proposals for the sale of such bonds to the government will be received at the ‘Treasury Department, in the city of Washington, D.C., at noon on Wednesday, Sep- tomber 17, 189. ‘The right to reject any or all bids is hereby expressly reserved.” Secretary Windom is not expected to return from Williamstown for several days, RESIGNED HIS OFFICE.

Clagett, the clerk of the Police Court, has been tendered and accepted the position thus vacated, and ill in a few daysenter on the duties, for Mr. scomb asked in his letter that the resigna- tion be accepted before the Ist proximo if it could be done.

Mr. Hemphill has now returned and the report may be ex- pected to be called up almost any day. Senator Harris today said that he has been waiting for the report to be passed by the House to call it up in the Senate. Mr. Hemphill bad acted as chairman ot the confer- ence committee and the matter had largely been left in his hands. Ho kad therefore con- sidered that action on the matter should first be taken by the House.

In the revised speech certain passages have been eliminated which, it has been asserted, were contrary to parliamentary rules and usages. In the revision, after the declaration that Ohio has twice within a decade been disgraced by Senators chosen “simply because they were able to outbid other contestants,” there 1s this sentence: “Surely the cloak of senatorial courtesy has been used to hide the infamy and the corruption which has dishonored ana dis- graced a body which was once the proudest in the land,” all that part declaring that sena- torial courtesy had become a stench in the nostrils of the people and a cloak to cover up | infamies being omitted. ‘Ihe only changes made, so far as Senator | Quay is concerned, consists in vlision of the word “criminal” where it occurs in two places and of the omission of all mention of Senator Quay | by name. Where it was saggested in the orig- inal speech that Judas, when be hanged him- | self, bad icft “an example for the Matt Quays is well worthy of — their | inutation,” there is substituted there- | for the following: “Au — example | well worthy of imitation.” The sentence, | “the republican party cannot afford to follow the lead of a branded crimin; is struck out altogether, and later on where it was said “he stands a convicted criminal before the bar of pablic opinion,” a change is made so as to read “he stands convicted before the bar of public opinion.” FIRED ON A WHALE BOAT. There May Be a Court Appointed bed | inquire Into the Petrel Accident. Nobody knows just what will be the outcome | of the recent accident on board the Petrel, re- | sulting in the destruction of a whale boat dur- | ing target practice. There isa story going the | rounds to the effect that just before the gun was fired a sudordinate officer saw the | danger and stepping to the commander, Lieut. Com. Brownson, said: “Captain, if that gun is fired in that position the whale boat will be very badly hurt.”. The commander, it is said, resented the advice and gave orders to fire the gun. The gun was fired and the whale boat re- solved itself into splinters, If this is true a| court of inquiry will probably follow, for, al- though the value of the boat is small in com- parison, the principle involved i of extreme importance, Tbe boat cont about $500. These | accidents are by no means uncommon and are sometimes unavoidable. SEVEN DOLLARS A FOOT. A Portion of the Louise Home Grounds Sold.

A WORD ADOUT STRIKES. “As to strikes I desire to be explicit, in order that our position may be fully understood. It is erroneous to «uppose that the labor organi- zations are in favor of strikes or of tomenting trouble, The very reverse is true. The better organized a trade is the less trouble do em- ployers experience with their employes. jin the first place no strike can or- | dered by any lodge in our organtzation without Arst obtaining the sanction of the highest Ofiicers of the association. If a grievance exists on auy railroad our laws require that a committee must cudeavor te have a ence with the officialsof the road every honorable effort to bring about an cable adjustment of the question, Failing in this effort they must cali in the grand master of the association, te whom the grievance must be submitted and who thereupon will once more endeavor to induce the officials to come to an understanding on # peace- abie basis. If this effort also fails then i the time to bring up the question of striking. The local lodge will not have the backing from the association unless the grand master sanc tions the strike, and the latter is supposed to be impartial evough and above local prejue dices so as not, tu give his sanction to strike unless the grievance is of sufficient gravity to warrant such a radical m Itis my ex- perience that w: ver the officials will meet and treat with the men there bas never been any necessity of a resort to extreme measures and whenever radical measures ate taken you may be sure that it ix because the respective railroad officials refuse to give the complainté of the men proper consideration, I say, ad- visedly, that it is a refusal to even consider the gricvance which in most cares leads to trouble— not arofusal to grant whatever may be asked, I never knew of a working man who wanted » strike until he was driven to it by absolute necessity. There have been some strikes which do not answer to this description.
