This me: 2d EDITION. THE HOME RULE BILL. Mr. Gladstone Moves Its Third Read- ing in the Commons. LAST STAGE OF THE DEBATE REACHED. The Premier and John Morley En- thusiastically Cheered. PREPARING FOR THE VOTE. a LONDON, Aug. 30.—The last stage of the home rule bill debate in the house of com- mons began today. As usual on Wednes- day, the house met at noon. The exceptionally large attendance show- ed that the majority of the members who went to the country for their holidays re- cently had returned to hear the final speeches of the party leaders, and to take part in the final division on next Friday night. On the Irish benches hardly a seat was vacant. The liberals and radicais were present almost to a man. All the party leaders were cheered as they entered, but no great enthusiasm was shown until Mr. Gladstone and John Mor- ley came in together. Then the Irish mem- bers rose cheering, the liberals and radica!: joined them, and for nearly two minutes the house rang with shouts for the two men who had done most to render possible the advancement of the home rule bill to the third reading. Mr. Gladstone Speak Before Mr. Gladstone rose to move the third reading a few amendmen:s were added to the bill at the instance of Mt. Mor- ley, chief secretary for Ireiand. After they had been disposed of without debate Mr. Gladstone rose amid a storm of cheers. He began his speech with referen- ces to the criticisms made by unionist lead- ers on the historical precedents ne had cited on former occasions for home rule in Ireland. The opposition, he saia, had con- tended that in no other countries could analogies be found for changing the union between Great Britain and Irelani. Their contention could not be supported by his- torical facts. In Austria-Hungary, in Nor- way and Sweden, in the U abundant proofs that it was altogether @e- sirable to separate local from imperial af- fairs. Throughout European and American literature it was not possible to find a writer entitled to consideration who ap- proved of the conduct of Englané towards Ireland, or attempted to apolog:ze for the grievous and shamefui history which, since the union, they had felt compesled to de- plore. v gt NNA HAS A FATAL CASE.

Bank Deposits Increase and Mills Re- sume Operations. KANSAS CITY, Aug. "30.—Business men and bankers are unanimous in their opin- ion that the low point in the present finan- cial depression has been reached by Kansas City, and that the upward movement has begun. Bank presidents estimate that the banks have gained $2,000,000 in deposits since the run in July. DENVER, Aug. 30.—The State National Bank will probably open its doors today, having had the permission of the con- troller for several days. The Commercial, the only remaining national bank which closed during the recent flurry, will prob- ably open before the end of the week. The German National resumed yesterday. The Union Bank at Greeley, Col, also opened for business yesterday. ST, PAUL, Minn., Aug. 30.—The Walter A. Wood Harvester Works will start up in a few days. Work will be provided for be- tween 1,5 and 2,00 men. ST. LOUIS, Mo., Aug. 30.—The St. Louis Stamping Company resumed operations yes. terday, after an idleness of several weeks. Mr. W. F.

Gatling Guns Brought Out by the Chi- cago Police. Fifteen Hundred Men Called Out to Prevent 2 Riot—Exciting Times for Awhile at the World's F: CHICAGO, Aug. 30. of unemployed men and women has con- gregated on the lake front for the purpose of holding a mass meeting. The number of people assembled is so much larger than expected that 500 police- men have been hurriedly placed on duty at the park and 1,000 additional men have been summoned from distant police stations to be in readiness in case of trouble. The police are apprehensive of a disturb- ance and are taking every precaution to prevent a serious outbreak. Prepariug to Fight. CHICAGO, Aug. 30, 12:07 p.m.—The mob is throwing coupling pins. The police are making ready to use gatling guns. Gatling guns in use directly in front of the Auditorium was the scene imminent for a short time today. Coupling pins and clubs were the worst weapons actually brought into use, how- ever, and the most prominent public ground in the city, the landing place of the worlt's fair steamers, was narrowly spared a spec- tacle of carnage paralleling the memorable Haymarket riot. During the morning crowds of unem- ployed and {dle spectators crowded around the Columbus monument. As the minutes passed the crowd grew larger and more turbulent. e Indications of rioting began to manifest themselves, and in addition to the number of officers’ in plain clothes circulting among the throng, Chief of Police Brennan summoned first uniformed men, and later a round thousand. Prior to this the only patrolmen in uni- form yistble were on the street ends abut- ting on the lake front park. Meanwhile the crowd had greatly multi- plied, impromptu speeches being made at several points, attracting additions to the throng. Soon ‘the outskirts of the great gathering were surging across Michigan boulevard and blocking access to the auditorium. Along the boulevard and streets leading from that thoroughfare traffic was suspended and a number of teams were caught in the mass of people from which egress, owing to the crush, was impossible. —>—_ SILVER RISES IN LONDON.

SENATOR SHERMAN'S SPEECH ON REPEAL What He Thinks Are the Causes of the Stringency. THE NEW HOUSE RULES. So THE SENATE. Mr. Manderson (Neb.) presented a me- morial from all the national banks of Oma- ha, Neb., for the immediate passage of the bill repealing the purchase clauses of the Sherman act, expressing the belief that such repeal will go far to bringing an end to the present serious financial disturbance, and also asking for such legislation as shall put gold and silver on a parity. Other petitions on the same subject were Presented as follows: By Mr. Harris (Tenn.)—From the Farm- ers’ and Workers’ Union of Lauderdale county, Tenn., protesting against the repeal of the Sherman act and asking for free coinage of silver. By Mr. Voorhees (Ind.) from citizens of St. Joseph, Mo., for the unconditional re- peal of the Sherman act. By Mr. Cockrell (Mo.), resolutions adopted at a public meeting held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, protesting against the “senseless attack on the Sher- man law,” and demanding the fulfillment of the pledges of the democratic national convention for the free coinage of gold and silver. Mr. Call @Fla.) presented joint resolutions of the legislature of Florida asking for an investigation, by order of Congress, of the admmistration of the United States circuit and district judge of the northern district of Florida, by Charles Swayne as United States district judge. It was referred to the judiciary committee. Mr. Vance (N. C.), a member of the fl- nance committee, gave notice that he would address the Senate next Friday on the re- peal bill. Mr. Pugh (Ala.) offered a resolution,which was referred to the committee on privileges and elections—to pay $v to Lee Mantle, in full compensation for his time and ex- penses In prosecuting his claim to a seat in the Senate from the state of Montana. Mr. Stewart (Nev.) offered a resolution, which was, on his own motion, referred to the finance committee, directing the Secre- tary of the treasury to inform the Senate how the revenue, since the commcncement of the present fiscal. year, compares with the estimates. Speech. At 12:30 the bill to repeal the Sherman act was laid before the Senate, and Mr. Sher- man (Ohio) proceeded to address the Sen- ate. He sajd that the immediate question before the Senate was whether the United States should suspend the purchase of sil- ver bullion under the act of July, 1990. It was to decide that quest'on that the Presi- dent had called Congress together in special session. Mr. Sherman then proceedet to discuss the history of the act that bears his name, He was not in favor of the free coinage of silver, and regarded it ag but «nother name for the monometallism of silver, and was erly in favor of the purchase of stiver for Furposes of coining. The conferees of the two houses agread upon their differences, end in that agreement secured the repcal of the Bland-Allison act. Mr. Sherman re- minded Senators that when thev criticised | the kew that was ‘nisnamed after him they should remember that this law now on the statute books was far better than either the | House bill or that passed by the Senate. Causes of the Silver Decline. ‘The President had, Mr. Sherman said, set forth the decline in the value of silver, but had failed to give the causes of that decline. Had he taken a broader view of the causes of that decline he could have explained it all, It was due, Mr. Sherman said, to the fact that we were called upon to y our debts, debts payable in gold. England was the great creditor country and we should either be ashamed of, nor hate her; we er children and partake much of the cha acteristics of the parent stock. England's losses in the Argentine Republic had to be made good and she returned our securities and demanded the gold needed to save her own institutions from going down. For the first time also in a number of years the balance of trade was against us and we had to make the difference good. After discuss- ing other matters contributing to the pres- ent condition, Mr. Sherman declared that an erroneous impression had been created when it was claimed that the Sherman law was the cause of all the trouble, and this he said with all due deference to Mr. Cleveland. Still the fact was that Congress must deal with a situation and not a measure. His Own Bill for Repeal. He believed in “giving the devil his due,” and was ready to stand by the law, not as @ measure in which he took any special pride, for he was compelled to yield in order to prevent disastrous legislation. But with- out this law what would the country have done in 1891 and 182 had it been’ called upon then to meet the difficulties now stag- gering us? He was not a new convert to the repeal of the law, and a year-ago he had introduced a bill to’ suspend the operation of the law. It was worded almost exactly like that of Mr. Voorhees. Why did not the democratic Senators then see the dangers they now see, and come to the help of the republicans when they sought to suspend the law? Not a democratic vote was had then, and democrats must answer why. This was a currency famine, not the fear that the money of the country was not good, and the people should not be deceived as to the reasons for the repeal. . Mr. Sherman did not believe the repeal of the law would in any considerable degree -elieve the coun- try from the existing stagnation. Its re- peal would ease the money market from the dreaded fear of the free coinage of silver. ‘The law was denounced by the democratic party as a miserable makeshift. It was a makeshift, and a good one, intended to pre- vent the iJls growing out of the free coinage of silver. A Warning to the Democrats. The democratic party was now charged with a great responsibility, and Mr. Sher- man warned them that if they attempted to alter the existing tariff laws they would plunge the country into deeper distress than now exists. Taking it for granted that the Sherman law would be repealed, what of the futare? Mr. Sherman, while rot the adviser of the democratic party, said he was entitled to give his opinion as an American citizen. First of all we must preserve intact the purity of all our money. It might be necessary to issue our securities to secure gold to maintain this purity, the only way by which we can summarily secure gold. The balance of trade may be against us again next year and if such a condition should arise the Secretary of the Treasury ought to have the authority to make tne deficit good. ‘All parties have heretofore given the Sec- retaries this authority. The exportation of American products ought to be encouraged by legislation. The surplus in the treas- ury, if there was one—and Mr. Sherman supposed there was, for democratic Senators said so—should be coined and used for ali legal purposes. Mr. Sherman said ine @id not believe in buying silver from our own people and making a profit out of the pro- ceeding. If it was a profit, it was an in- trigue; if not a profit, it was a fraud. He believed it a fraud. Mr, Sherman then began a discussion of the various coinage laws of the United States with special reference to the act of 1873, which had, he said, been the subject of so much misrepresentation and falsehood in this debate. He denied Mr. Voorhees’ statement that that act (the act of 1873) w: a “stealthy demonetization.” Mr. Voorhe replied that he never intended to refer to the Senator from Ohio, for four years age he had effectually cleared himself from any ticipation in that matter. Hereafter,” said Mr. Sherman, “when any man makes such a statement about this legislation T shall simply say that it is a falsehood and brand it so.” It is strange,” said Mr. Sherman, “that on the vote on’ this bill the distinguished Senator from Nevada (Mr. Stewart) voted for it and I, ‘this devil fish,’ voted against it.’ The last remark was in reference to an epithet applied to Mr. Sherman during the debate in the House last week. THE HOUSE. Mr. Talbot (Mo.) asked unanimous con- sent to introduce a Dill repealing the stat- utes authorizing the appointment of mar. shals and supervisors of election. Mr. Dingley (Me.) objected. Mr. Breckinridge (Ky.), from the com- mittee on appropriations, reported the urgent deficiency appropriation bill (which appropriates $300,000) and it was passed. ‘The items are $25,000 for bank note paper, $200,000 for recoinage of: subsidiary coins and $75,000 for clerks to Representatives. Mr. Bowers (Cal.) asked consent for the immediate consideration of a resolution calling on the Attorney General for infor- mation as to whether any action has been taken in the cases now pending in which the Southern Pacific Railroad Company has begun action to dispossess settlers on the public lands. Mr. Bynum (Ind) objected. The New Code of Rules. The House then resumed consideration of the new code of rules, with the understand- ing that the general debate should close at 2 o'clock. Mr. Hopkins (IL) spoke in favor of an amendment which he proposed to offer at a suitable time having in view the pre- vention of filibustering. Mr. Kilgore (Texas) criticised the rules of the Fifty-first Congress. That Congress had assembled with the declaration that it intended to do business, and it had done business. Its first action’ had been to clothe the Speaker with autocratic power, and the Speaker had not been unwilling to accept the crown. Like Caesar he had not thrice refused the crown. That Congress had done business, and the people had heard of it, and had returned a large democratic ma- jority to the next House. The gentleman from Maine (Mr. Reed) had said that the Supreme Court had vindicated him. But there was a tribunal higher than the Su- Preme Court, higher than Congress, and that was the tribunal of the people, and that tribunal had not vindicated the gen- tleman or his Congress. Mr. Grosvenor (Ohio) defended the Reed Tulings during the Fifty-first Congress. Mr. Holman (ind.) addressed the House in opposition to the rule making 100 mem- bers a quorum in committee of the whol The time for general debate has been ex- tended until 3 o'clock. — — STOCKS ARE HIGHER. Effect of the Hou Action on the Silver Bill. Special Dispatch to the Evening St: NEW YORK, Aug. 30.—This week's tri- umph for sound money, which would natu- rally have been reflected in yesterday market had not all communication with out of town connections been destroyed by Monday's storm, was celebrated today in Wall street by an advance in prices all along the line. The advance may be ai tributed to the covering of short contracts and the manipulation of room traders, but the complete change in the financial situa- tion and the return of confidence will soon bring into speculative channels the neces- sary currency to conti the rise on a more su>stential and legitimate basis. It is wrue that the deliberations of the Senate may supply the bears with sufficient working capital to bring on reactions from time to time, but the ultimate result can hardly be questioned when the wisdom of what has, alrcady been done is so clearly demonstrated by the stimulus given to busi- ness enterprises throughcut the country. The iron trade, which first felt the effects | Department refuse to give any information of business Gepression, immediately | re- sponds to the brighter outlook, and fur- naces are opening up in all sections after a long period of idleness. Many of the suspended national banks are daily reopcning their doors, with a liberal share of old depositors giving them aid and encouragement. With no unlooked for interruptions the change should extend to all classes of trade and a period of prosperity as comprehen- sive as the recent period of panic and de- pression result. ‘The market opened strong at an advance of 1-4 to 1-2 per cent and the early trading was spirited and continuous. London was also higher and did some business on this side. As usual the industrials took first place in the udvance, and scored Important gains, varying from i to 5 points. "Tabacco advanced from 68 to 72 on limited trading. Sugar was active and gained 3 per cent to 85, and Distillers was benefited 17-8 per cent to 23 3-8. In the regular list Manhattan made the most profitable gains, advancing to 119, an improvement of 31-2 per cent from the opening. St. Paul advanced 11-2 per cent to 881-2, Burlington 13-8 to 893-8, and Rock Island sold up to 62, a gain of 1 per cent. Consolidated Gas, which has lately shown considerable strength, added 4 points to its Position today, selling up to 127. Cordage was strong on’a favorable report of the re- organization committee and sold up to 23 1-2, a gain of 11-2 per cent.

Detective Carter called the attention of the district attorney's office to the matter, and there it was decided that the machines made those holding them subject to the xambling laws. ‘The parties operating them were thereupon notified to discot tinue their use, and today police headquar- rs received information that all had been withdrawn for the present, although it is believed that the companies controlling the machines will decide to make a test case of the matter. > A Schooner Wrecked.

He in Said to Have Made His Ship the Scene of Some Lively Frolicking While o the Potomac. ‘There is a scandal in the revenue marine service, involving an officer of high rank, and preparations are being made at the Treasury Department to investigate it. The officer in question is Capt. John C. Mitchell, ecmmanding the revenue steamer Crawford, operating on this station between Baltimore, Norfolk and Washington. Charges of a serious nature have been prepared against him by another officer of the ship. General- ly he is accused of conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman and conduct pre- Judicial: to military discipline. The specifi- cations enumerate several acts of moral de- lnquency, including Arankenness cn duty and the use of his cabin for improper pur- poses. His most serious transgression is sileged to have occurred while the Crawfor] was anchored in the Potomac near this city,and seems to have been the result of a too close association with Russian aristocracy, as his alleged fall from grace foitowed shortly after the employment of the Crawford un- der his command in transporting the Rus- sian grand duke to Mount Vernon soon af- ter the naval review. It 1s alleged that he has been intoxicated frequently since that event, and that one night not long ‘zo he went ashore and spent the night in general Jollification in bad company, and that he returned to the ship carly JA the morning considerably the worse for wear, but what was even worse was the fact that he was accompanied by two octoroon girls of un- doubtedly bad reputation. The officer of the deck remonstrated against such a palpable violation of the regulations, but the captain was obdurate and would not listen to reason. His com- panions were his guests and should be treated accordingly. The captain Is said to have escorted them to his cabin with all the grace and dignity at his command, some- what marred by the unsteadiness’ of his gait and his generally dilapidated appear- ance. The other officers of the ship, it is stated, were naturally scandalized at the conduct of their commander in entertaining these women, but naturally hesitated in bringing the matter to the attention of his superiors. Reported to Headquarters. It was too sertous an offense to be ignored altogether, however, and one of the officers finally reported the circumstances to the Treasury Department. His letter was re- ceived by Capt. Shepard, chief of the reve- nue marine division and by him was sub- mitted to Assistant Secretary Hamlin, who has supervision of that branch of the service. It was decided to_ investigate the matter at once and Capt. Shepard was instructed to convene a board of officers for that purpose. The officials of the Treasury in regard to the case and the facts given above had to be obtained from other sources, The Crawford is now at Baltimore and Capt. Mitchell is still in command. He will be undoubtedly relieved, however, in a few days and suspended from active service until the coniempiated investigation shall have been concluded and the further ac- tion of the department determined upon. The Investigation. The investigation will be held in this city beginning next Tuesday, but the detail of the board is not yet complete. Capt. Mitchell is a native of Maine, but was ap- pointed to the service from Massachusetts in November, 1863. He reached his present grade in November, 1879 and has been in command of the Crawford since September, is. He stands No. 18 in the list of thirty- six captains. — PRESENTED TODAY. The New German Ambasandor Greeted by Secretary Gresham, Baron von Saurma-Jeltsh, who enjoys the distinction of being the first ambassador of the German empire accredited to the United States, called at the State Department, by appointment, at noon today, and presented his credentials to Secretary Gresham. He was accompanied by Baron Kettler, the German charge d'affaires, who performed the simple ceremony of introducing the two distinguished diplomats.

He was afterward sent to ‘The Hague, and when made ambassador to the United States he was Prussian minister to Stuttgart. He has the titles of “Privy councillor and excellenzo.” He prefers to be called simply Baron Saurma. The am- bassador is one of the best-known iplo- mats in the German service. He has been in nearly every court in Europe. For twenty-five years he has been in the serv- ice of his government. In seniority he greatly outranks Baron von Holleben, the last German minister to the United States, who returned to Germany recently. Ambassadors Here. The German embassy is the fourth one established at this capital since the passage of the law authorizing the appointment of American ambassadors at foreign capitals.

Ross, president of the board of Commissioners of the Dis- trict of Columbia, for certain information with regard to the location within or near populated cities of hospitals for the treat- ment of persons suffering from contagious diseases, I have to state that the city au- thorities of Paris have two hospitals of the kind located very near to Paris, one close to the fortifications, the other at Aubervil~ liers. In the opinion of the authorities in charge of these establishments they should always be located at a reasonable distance from populous centers; it has not been found that remoteness from the center of the populous district was attended with any inconvenience, either in the transportation of patients or in the taking care of them.” Health Office Clerks.

There are some serious complications in the street sweeping contract, and the Com- missioners are figuratively speaking, scratching their heads and wondering who are the contractors. Some time ago Messrs. Elie & Daggett, the contractors, gave ® power of attorney to Corpl. Tanner to col- lect all money due the firm, with full power of substitution and revocation. Shortly after Corpl. Tanner substituted Mr. 0. G. Staples attorney for Ellis & Dagge*t, but on August 18, this power of attorney was revoked. On the same day Corpl. Tanner's power of attorney was revoked and Michael Dugan was substituted. Mr. 0. G. Staples, through his attorney, recently notified the Commissioners that he had some rights in the matter which he would like respected. He said that he has been paying the expenses of the street sweeping since June 23, and, therefore, has an interest in the subject matter of the power of attorney, which, he claims, is not revocable at will.’ He said if the Commis. sioners paid any funds over to Dugan he would hold the District responsible. ‘The matter was referred to the attorney for the District, who holds that as the powers of attorney were without any considera- tion, they must be held, so far as the Dis- triet is concerned, to express the entire right and interest of the attorney. He ad- vised the Commissioners to notify Mr. Staples that they would pay over to Mr. Dugan all funds due him on October 1, un- less they were enjoined, Dispoxing of Garbage.
