Natlonal Associated Press. PROCEEDINGS IN THE HOUSE. WasHiNGToN, March 18.—The house considered the OChinese bill. Mr, Speer (Ga.) supported 1t because the people of the Pacific slope needed its rotection. The Chinese in California eld the state down and lessened its developments greatly and what it was asking was by the unanimous vote of the peugle of the Pacific coast. Mr. Moore opposed the bill, arguing there is no ocoasion for so much alarm regarding the people of whom there is but 1 to every 60 of our own. He roferred to the remarks of Senator George touching the colored vote, in- gxmting it was an indi :ltaixm ]:.:nura are opes they may some day again dilg::nchiled. Y Mr. Williams (Wis.) said the bill violated the principles of the treaty and the principles upon which our country is founded. They talk of pro- visions of a republican platform as if it was framed to influence the vote of California. Though I do not assert that it was, how did that state re- spond? Mr. Page replied that the Morey letter, though not believed genuine by the mass of voters, had its effect and but, for it the state would have re- sponded differently, and alluded to the fact that the people of the state were srolning over the veto by the presi- ent of a former bill, To this Mr. Williams replied as one president vetoed that bill he hoped an- other would this. (Applause.) Mr. Skinner (N. Y.) opposed the bill, saying the demand for such a law was purely sectional and the princi- ples were in opposition to those of our government. Mr. Carpenter ([owa) said the bill was to prevent the coming of work- ingmen and he should not support it. %{r. Brumm (Pa.) read from the Sermon on the Mourt, claiming these sentiments were the highest standard. The sentiment expressed by those who have opposed the bill were as nothing as compared with these. Those opposing the bill were, holding untenable grounds. By it you make strata in society. You introduce into the re- public the grim principles which made plebians and patricians in Rome. . Without coming to any conclusion on the bill, the house adjourned. CAPITAL NOTES National Associated Prees ' MISCELLANEOUS.

They are pro bono publico. They were oconfided to all of us as lawyers, not as politicians, He declares ho was instructed by the president to give them the most vigilant attention, and act with earnestness to a practical re- sult.

Labor Moeting in Chicago, and Other Dispatohoes- National Associated Pross. LAwReNCE, Mass,, March 19.—The great strike is the all-absorbing topie to-day. It is stated that Superinten- dent Stone, of the Pacific mills, has visited the Catholic priests and asked them to interfere in the interests of harmony and good order. This morn- ing Father Regan, Catholic priest, preached a sermon strongly condem- ning the strike and the action of the strikers, and urging them to submit to corporation regulations. A very bit- ter feeling against the priest was aroused, and a large number of the congregation left the church during the sermon, An informal meeting of the striking women was held this afternoon, lasting for several hours, at which great feeling was manifested. The corporation was denounced, but the sentiment was ad- vanced that the Pacific mill might get along without them—they could get along without the Pacific mill. Father Regan was denounced for his course. Finally the meeting tempered down and it was admitted that at the re- duced wages they would get about as much as the same class receive else- where. One girl thought she would be willing to go to work if the Pacific mill authorities would make some con- ceasions in recogmition of their claims, even if very slight. This view of the case met with more and more favor in after talk, though a large propor- tiou insisted that they never would go to work until they got their old wages. 1t is evident thnt the feeling looking to a compromise, however small the concession may be, is fast gaining ground among many of the brother John Baker, who opposed his suit. For this reason there had not been much good feeling between the two men. They met early in the night at John’s house, William haying repaired there to sce the young lady with whom he was so much in love. Both men had been drinking and William was inclined to be noisy. He managed in some way to get hold of his brother’s- pistol and deliberately fired it off in" the room. His brother remonstrated with Him for his conduct and William again fired, whether at John or not is not known definitely. A scuffle ensued, both men being game and strong. William could not use the pi-:odl in such close quarters a0 ey a des hand o hand encounter with knives took place. William was first to succumb, his: brother’s blade having pierced vital parts. He fell to the floor and died in a short time. Johu was dangerously but not fatally stabbed. His daughter rushed into the room in time to see her young uncle die while her father was deadly pale from his wounds. John Baker surrendered but claims he slew his brother in self-defense. The tragedy creates intense excitement, both men being popular citizens, More Richness. ational Associated Fross.
