Torrxa, Kax., Feb. 15, 10 a.m.—Gov. Lew- elling has call out the state militia to eject the of representatives, they having effected a forcible entrance through the doors barred by the populists by means of sledge hammers. A riot is imminent. WHAT CAUSED THE TROUBLE. A bloodless bnt exciting battle took place between the republicans and the populist house at the entrance to representative hall this | morning. LS ees ‘The populists, who have possession o! the ball in the aiternoone, adjourned yestorday until this afternoon, and, as has been’ the cus- tomsinee the beginning of the session, the republicans expected to hold their regular morning session today, but Iast night the Populists swore in a large number of assistant sergeants-at-arms, who were placed on guard, and the doors and entrances to the hall were locked this morning. No one was admitted to the hall excepting populists and members of the press, and they were required to show a pass and run the gauntlet of a dozen guards. PREPARING TO ATTACK. ‘The republicans were fully informed of all of | these preparations to exclude them from the hall, and last night a hundred men were sworn | im as officers of the republicans and at 9 o'clock | the members of the republican house, with their | officers,started from headquarters for the state house. ‘The merch through the long corridors lead- ing to representative hall was unimpeded. The little column forced its way through the line of guards stationed at the foot of the stairs in the west wing and started up the stairs, ‘ ‘On the first landing was a crowd of populist house officers, under command of Adjutant Gen. Artz. They were armed and the advanc- ing republican crowd were met with the muz- | zles of revolvers and Winchesters. The adjutant | general commanded them to halt, but no stop | was made, and the advance guard pushed into the crowd of populists. Three or four of them succeeded in passing the doorkeepera after a brief struggle and getting into the hall, but the populists succeeded in closing the door and barring it. BROKE IN THE DOORS. The republicans on the outside demanded admittance, and when it was denied them Speaker Douglas swung o large sledge hammer and began to batter — the Leavy doors leading from the cloak room. It took many blows to beat a passageway through, but the doors finally gave way and the republican legislators surged in with a loud shout. The populists promptly retreated and now the republicans were in full possession of the hall. Ever since the opening of the session the populists have had the committee rooms, sergeant-at-arms’ room and the cbief clerk's room. These were al! locked and guarded on the inside, but after the house had been called to order ‘the republicans battered down the doors and took possession of them without en- countering any resistance. REPUBLICANS IN CONTROL. At 10 o'clock there were few populists in rep- resentative bal! and the republican house had settled down to the regular order of business as if nothing unusual had happened. The as- tant sergeants-at-arms each, wearing a bright red ribbon, promenaded the aisles and lobbies. ‘The republicans and populists began swearing in officers as fs for an emerge GUARDING THE GOVERNOR.

Feb. 15.—President-clect | Cleveland left on the 8:30 train for New York to meet a number of prominentmen with whom he had made appointment. New York, Feb. 15. President-elect Cleve- land came up to the city at his usual time this morning from Lakewood. He arrived at bis office in Mills building at 10 o'clock. His only caller dnring the morning was Sigourney Butler of Massachusetts. Tt was announced at the effice that Mr. Cleve- land bad come to the city (> meet certain peo- ple relativo to various “minor” appointments, ir. Cleveland sent out word from his private office that he would see no one else. The appointments ta be considered were said to have no relation to the cabinet. ‘he report that Clark Howell of the Atlanta Constitution and Col. Bluford Wilson werein the city and Hoke Smith was expected te arrive today led | to rumors that today’s conference was to be | tind with them and other representatives of the sonth. Following Mr. Butler's call at the President- elect’s office Wilson S. Bissell and Dan Lamont were admitted, together with M. B. Beach, a personal friend of Mr. Cleveland, from the northern part of the state. Mr. Hoke Smith of Georgia was the lest to arrive and was at once admitted. MR, SMITH GETS A PORTFOLIO. It has been definitely azcertained that Hoke Smith was offered the Secretaryship of the Interior today by Mr. Cleveland during their conference at the latter's office and that he has accepted. WHO HOKE SMITH IS, Mr. Smith was born at Newton, N.C., in September, 1855. When a boy he went to Georgia unknown and without influence. When only about seventeen he went to At- lanta and was admitted to the bar soon after his arrival in 1873. His fame and business grew steadily until he probably enjoys today the most remunerative practice in the state,and is said to have accumulated before he ‘was thirty-five a fortune of $250,000 or $300,000. Mr. Smith comes, on the father’s side, of a New Hampshire family. His father, Mr. H. H. Smith, was born there. His grandfather was Wm. True Smith, prominent man in that | state, and his grandfather was a colonel in the | revolutionary war. — O'DONNELL’S PART IN THE RIOT. Various Witnesses as to His Remarks and Acts on July 6. Prrtsavne. Feb, 15.—Even the spacious lob- bies surrounding the criminal court room were packed this morning, to say nothing of the condition of affairs within, long before the trial of Hugh O'Donnell was resumed. The throngs are without precedent in the history of the Allegheny county court. Robert Herbert, a reporter, continued his testimony. He met O'Donnell twice during | the day in the vicinity of the river. Witness understocd O'Donnel! battle as a newspaper correspondent. known him to act in that capacity. ©. C. Moore, cit editor of The Despatch, saw O'Donnell in the mill yard twice during | the day. When questioned ‘as to the probable outcome of the battle O"Donnell replied: “We'll win.” Witness said O'Donnell was correspon- dent of the Tristate News Bureau. He con- sidered O'Donnell’s remark, ‘We'll win,” to refer to the lockout. A. B. Layton, a Chicago reporter, saw the defendant in the rink about noon of the day of the strike. O'Donnell then told bim that six Pinkertons had been killed.

Wood, a Newcastle newapaper man, heard O'Donnell make his speech pleading with the crowd to let the Pinkertons go. ‘The sur- render followed O’Donneil’s speech. Stuart Hill, a steel inspector, testified that O'Donnell was 100 yards from the river bank while the oil and dynamite was being used. Capt. . Farrow of the steamer Robert Jenkins testified that as his boat was passing during the riot he was hailed by the men on the barges, who requested him to take them away. He ‘turifed in to pull them off. The shooting became so heavy from the shore as to drive him off. ‘The people on the shore shouted to him not to go near the barges. He then went on down the river. Richard Collins, a reporter, heard O’Donnell’s speech to the crowd int which he appealed to them to let the Pinkertons go. He said: “We have lost men. s0 have the Pinkertons. Let's cut the boats looee and float them down the river. ‘This will put an end to the bloody wor!

Speculators’ Disappointed at the Refusal to Sell Them Government Bonds. New Yorx, Feb. 15.—The disappointment in ‘Wail street o1 the failure of the administra- tion to authorize an issue of bonds found ex- pression this morning in a bearish attack upon stocks now recognized as particularly vulner- able, including sugar and cordage among the industrials and Reading and Manhattan among the railroads. « The pressure upon sugar and cordage was specially marked, but was well understood to be entirely professional in its nature, d hav- ing been anticipated was met by inside support at the low prices. Opening figures all along the line were fractionally lower than those of last night, but sugar bore the brunt of the pres- sure. and after an opening loss of ¢ per cent at 1299 was driven down to 12834. Cordage wasa close second on a smaller volume of business and opening down at 4; at ‘71 retired to 699g. Reading was sold heavily for Philadelphia account. ‘The selling was accompanied by a report that the next statement would show considerable decrease in earnings, and asin the industrials some top orders were uncovered, though its decline was confined toa fraction. Manhattan opened ata loss of 2 per cent at 186, but rallied immediately to 158, recovering the entire loss. The general market responded feebly to these declines, holders see- ing no immediate cause for alarm, and the selling pressure was con- fined to the professionala. Losses were, therefore, insignificant, though no rally of im- portance was seen. Sugar was again heavily pressed for sale in the late dealings and further retired to 126%, a net loss of 4 per cent. At 11 o’ciock the market was fairly active and heavy to weak at the lowest prices. ‘The pressure upon the market continued after 11 o'clock, but further concessions were without special importance, except in the industrials and one ‘or two specialties. ‘The indisposition to buy on all sides, even though there is no selling of long stock by investors, leaves the market in the hands of the professionals and traders who are working the situation for lower prices. Support in sugar was apparently with- drawn and it reached 12634, and after a rally of 1 per cent retired to near the lowest price. The decline in distillers made further pro- gress and it touched 37, againgt 381; last even- ing. Chicago gas sold at 89, after opening at 903s, and cordage retired from 71 to 67. Reading at 463¢ showed a loss of 1 per cent and Manhattan, after eelling up to 163, lined 1 per cent. Buffalo, Roches- ter and Pittsburg declined sharply from 35 to 33, but changes in the rest of the mark were insignificant, and evident covering of the shorts toward 12 o'clock caused a partial rally over the whole list. At noon the market was active and firm at the improvement. Sales to noon listed stocks 183,500 shares, unlisted 63,200, Posted rates, 4873/a4893¢. ‘The clearing house statement for today is as follows: Exchanges, 111,458,300; balanc $7,441,712.

The diplomatic and consular and the Mili- tary Academy appropriation bills were reported and placed on the calendar. ‘The conference report on the army appro- priation bill was presented and read. Mr. Bate (Tenn.) said that he could not un- derstand from the reading of the report what had been done about the signal service, and he suggested that the report be laid over until to- morrow. Mr. Stewart consented to the suggestion. Mr. Allison defended the conference com- mittee from an insinuation that 1t had not been sufficiently tenacious, and said that the amend- ment in question had no right to be on an ap- Ppropriation bill, as it was independent legisla- tion; and Mr. Stewart agid that if the bill went back to conference he Would raise that point of order, and leave the whole amendment off. Mr. Proctor (Vt.) inquired as to the Senate amendment providing that the rank of the head of the signal corps should be a lieutenant col- onel instead of major, and was informed by Mr. Stewart that the Senate conferees had receded from that amendment. After further discussion the conference re- port went over without action and was ordered to be printed. ‘The resolution offered yesterday by Mr. Hoar Mass.) for the reading by the President pro tempore (Mr. Manderson) of Washington's farewell address at the session of February 22 was taken up and agreed to, ‘The consideration of the sundry civil appro- priation bill was proceeded with. The clauses to pay to the widows of Chief Justice Waite and Justice Miiler of the Supreme Court the balances of their husbands’ salaries for the year of their death ($8,745 and $7,419) were agreed to without question. ‘The reading of the bill having been finished the reserved amendments wére taken up, the first being the series in reference-to the world’s Columbian exposition. Mr. Quay (Pa.) offered his amendment making ail ‘appropriations for the exposition conditional on Sunday closing. Mr. Allison hoped ‘that Mr. Quay press that amendment. It was only a repro- duction of part of the legislation o: last year, every provision of which had been complied with. With that assurance Mr. Quay withdrew his amendment and then all the committee amend- ments as to the world’s fair were agreed to. ‘The next series of reserved amendments were those for the improvement of rivers and bar- bors, the first being a reduction of the amount for Philadelphia hatbor from $500,000 to #300. ‘The amendment was opposed by Mr. Quay and Mr. McPherson on the ground that the pro- posed reduction would interfere seriously with the progress of the work (the removal of cer- tain islands). At2p.m. the unfinished business—the Nica- ragua canal bill—was laid before the Senate, but at the request of Mr. Gorman (Md.) it was Inid aside temporarily and the consideration of the sundry civil appropriation bill was pro- ceeded with.

On motion of Mr. Bowman (Iowa) Senate bill was passed extending to Council Bluffs, Iowa, the provisions of the act relative to the immediate transportation of dutiable goods. Mr. Hatch (Mo.) asked unanimous consent for the consideration of Senate bill incorporat- ing the Holstein Breeding Association of Ameri- ca, but Mr. Bailey (Tex.) objected. On motion of Mr. Wheeier (Alu) a bill was passed authorizing the construction of a bridge across the Tennessee river at Sheffield, Ala. Mr. O’Ferrall (Va.) called up and the House adopted without debate a resolution relating to the contested election case of Reynolds vs, Shonk, from the twelfth district of Pennsyl- vania. The resolution confirms the title of the contestee to his seat. Mr. Cummings (N. Y.), from the com- mittee on library, reported back resolution call- ing for an investigation of the charge of favor- itiem in access to the archives cf the State Department. The committee nsked that the resolution be Inid upon the table and the com- mittee be discharged from its further consider ation. ‘This course was pursued. ‘The House then resumed in committee the consideration of the pension appropriation bill.

WHAT SOMEWF THEM SAID, Commissioner Ross is: his letter said: “I cannot tell you how giad I am that the District of Columbia is tocommand your ser- vices, You will find plenty of hard work; you will have to deal with many unreasonable and selfish people, but you will make a success of it. Personally, Iam more than gratified.” Mr. Pollock wrote: “Among the many ad- mirable and fitting appointments made by President Harrison yours will’be considered in the highest rank. Director Leech said: ‘I know that you have the ability to fill the position, and I believe that your selection will be favorably received by all who have the best interests of the city at heart. Ae one of those who was born here ond who loves Washington I am delighted with your selection.” Mr. Geo. W.

I think be will ‘make an admirable Commissioner.” Dr. Z. T. Sowers seemed overjoyed at the ap- pointment. “Mr. Parker is better suited for the responsible position of Commissioner than any mau I know. His knowledge of the Dis- trict’s interests and his regard for ite welfare make the appointment one of universal good.” MR. PERRY CARSON. ‘Mr. Perry Carson said: “It’s a bard matter for me to express an opinion. Commissioner the right man in the right place.

You have rare qualities, that will enable you to achieve something more than mere administra tion of ordinary routine work, and friends who will take pleasure in following your lead,” Mr. Winship said: “While I am a compara- tive stranger to you I have had the pleasure of meeting you at intervals during your long residence’ in the city of Washington, and have always been impressed with your sincere and carnest efforts in every pro- ject that was started in the true interest of the city of Washington and the people of the Dis- trict of Columbia, without regard to political party, class or race in the community. Rev. Dr. Hamlin: “I congratulate the Dis- trict of Columbia on your appointment. It is ideal in every respect, and a man that is will- ing to make the sacrifice that you must make to take the place deserves the thanks of all. “But, clas! there's no rose without a thorn. This only adds to my standing puzzle, viz., by what law of nature the District Commissioners (civilian) are bound to be the handsomest men in town. It is evidently an inexorable law, 30 we'll submit.”” Mr. C.

Dr. James C, Weiling: congratulate and felicitate the District of Co- lumbia on your nomination by the President as one of our Commissioners.

TO PROTECT AMERICAN WORKINGMEN. Mr. Chipman of Michigan today addressed the House committee on labor in support of his bill to protect Americas working: men by making it unlawful for an alien who is a non-resident of the United States to work at any mechanical trade or perform manual labor in this country. Con- tractors who violate this law are to be pun- awhed by fine and imprisonment. At the con- clusion of Mr. Chipman’s remarks the measure was discussed briefly, but no action on it was taken.

Mr. Manning, the chief engineer of the Baltt- more and Obio railroad, presented himself at the room of the Senate District committee thix morning with a formidable bundie which Proved t6 be the proposed plans of that railroad company for erecting their overhead masonry | structure, which will do away with all grade | Crossings inside the limits of the city, as far as their line 1s concerned. It was the intention of Vice President King | to bring the plans from Baltimore, but be was detained im that city by important business, and Faulkner gave Mr. KR at which be explained thoroughly the intentions of the road and the plans submitted The District’ Commissioners were requested to meet Senators McMillan and Faulkner at the District committee room at 2 o'clock this afternoon and the plans were again explained by Mr. Manning for their benefit. If the plans are entirely satisfactory to the Commissioners Mr. Cowan, the general counsel f the Baltimore and Obio, will come to this city tomorrow and a conference will be held with Senators McMillan and Fanlk- ner and the Commissioners, at which 4 bill incorporating the plans will be drafted. If this work can be accomplished it ia the de- sire of Mr. McMillan to have the bill acted on at the meeting of the District committee on Friday. In this way the progress of abolishing grade crossings in the District will be consider- ably advanced. After an examination of the plans thie morn- ing both Mr. McMillan and Mr. Faulkner ex- Preased themselves as bein: satisfied with them and believed the improvements proposed will be satisfactory to the public and will be a great step in the improvement of the city. THREE DIFFERENT roRAS. The plans submitted proposed three different ideas for terminals which the road was willing to adopt. The first, and one which met with approval, included a structure for ® station which, itself, will be & fine building. The depot will be in the same position which it now occupier, but will run another block along C street. The exits, which will be directly on C street, will be very large suficjent to" accommodate aliuoxt any The railroad «bed will be an immense a tion being 1,564,045.

THE SECOND TERMINAL PLAN.

Mr. Boutelie said that he did not remember who it was that had made the remark. Mr. Oates replied that he did remember the circumstance alluded to, and he put the denial of Mr. Blackburn against the charge of the gentleman from Maine. Mr. Boutelle stated that he had used it only as illustrating the attitude of the democratic party today. : ‘Mr. Oates—And it was false. Mr. Boutelle—I would not say that. Mr. Oates, continuing, said that the other charges of the gentleman were equally unfor- tunate and illy founded. ‘The gentle- man had stated that the democrats had refused to put Gen. Grant on the retired list during his last illness, They had done nothing of the kind. When the biil came up Generali Grant was not ill. And the gentleman knew that the op- position was not opposition to Gen. Grant (whom all ex-confederates admired as a soldier), but opposition to the principle of re- instating any man who had resigned from the army in order to take a civil position. No gentleman could charge him or any other ex-confederate of °} posing &@ proper pension to any Union sol- + who was worthy of a pension. He would not follow the gentleman from Maine in his tirade. The gentleman was in his personal relatfons genial and pleasant, and he was sorry the gentleman should have seen proper to make such a tirade as he had.

It had been ‘his sim to correct the awful condition of affairs and he was glad to know his work had not been “in vain. He said he called upon Mr. Parker this morning to congratulate him, in the first place, and to urge him as a Commis- sioner to repair the sidewalk in front of his house, which had recently been torn up by the plumbers to repair the water service, which, even though a Commissioner, he had found im- possible to have repaired. ’ Mr. Parker, how- ever, was not in at the time. ‘MR.
