THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT, Tariff Legislation—Mississippi River Ap- propriation—Oleomargarine, DEMOCRATS SAD AND UNHAPPY, Senator Van Wyck Speaks—Probable Veto of the River and Harbor Ap- propriations—Dr. McGhlicuddy Resigns—Impudent Witnesa, Topics of Interest, WaAsmNGTOoN, May 17 — [Special Tele- gram.]—It is now understood among Morri- son’s friends that he will call up the tariff bill in the house just as soon as a couple more of the appropriation bills are out of the way. He is notatall sure that the bill will pass, but he is determined to give it a fair chance. Heisalittle nettled at the constant asser- tions of the opponents of the bill that he is afraid to call it up, and he thinks, besides, that his chances are very good. Its great danger, he believes, lies in the attempt which is to be made to strike out the enacting elause. ) son himself says that there- ports that he is going to let the bill 2o over until the next sessien without an effort to cail it up are not true, THE MISSISSIPPI CLAUS A curious discussion has arisen among members interested in the river and harbor bill, particularly those interested in the Mis- sissippi river appropriations, regarding the effect of the action of the house in striking out certain portions of the bill which placed the expenditures for the Mississippl river in the hands of the Mississippi river commis- sion, 1t was supposed at the time that the action fairly knocked out the Mississippi river commission and placed the whole work upon that stream in charge of the war de- partment again, It is now claimed, how- ever, that such is not the case, but that by subsequent sections of the bill' and_existi law thie commission is continued in cha of the work, Even if it should not follow that this is the case it |.<|\uiu- probable that the set restore the Mississipai river xl-n;luml.\s' it stood in the oiginal bl very day adds to the prospect that the oresident will veto the river and harbor bi t was about 815,000,000 insize when it got through the house, but it Iooks now as thouzh it might be ubout $2,000,000 larger by the time it gets to the president. OLEOMARGARINE DOOMED. Ihe house connuittee on agriculture is a good deal disuppointed at its filure to got action last week on the bill_ taxing oleomar- garine, It is firmly believed that the bill will readily pass if it géts before the hous senate committee having it in charge reported the bill favorably, but as s a mea which affects ~ revenues the senate cannot act upon it until it is acted uponin the house, There seems little doubt of its becoming a law in a somewhat modi- fied form whenever congress can get time to take it up. FISHERY TROUBI. The troubles growing out of the refusal of the Canadian government to admit Ameri- can vessels to her ports for the purchase of I he subject of agood deal of discussion Those ‘who have studied the matter curefully believe that the real motive of the Dominion in the rulh'y at present pursued is to retain some valuable priyilege within the control of the Dominion government with which to negotiate for the admission of Canudian fish free of duty to the ports of the United States. DIt MCGIL. D, Dr. V. 1 McGillicudy, wiho has been for many years iu chirge of the most important and troublesome of all the Indian ageucies, at Pine Ridge l\L!ellt'{; I bee summarily removed irom office by the secre- tary of the inter! ‘There s noman in the Indian service over whom there has been so much disputeas McGillicudy. Charges have aain and again been filed against him and no end of influence has been exerted to re- move him, He has been in constant war with Red Cloud, head of the Ing ie has charge of, and has suceeeded in reducing Red Cloud rom the chieftancy to the rank. . FOR INSUBORDINATION, McGillicuddy’s removal was not the result of any eharges filed against him, but it was because of insubordiunation in refusing o re- cognize and obey the orders of the interior depurtment. 3 Sccretary’ Lamar said to-day that he es- teemed McGillicuddy very highly, and was very sorry to be compelled to take this step, but'it secmed to him absolutely necessary 1o do 80, ns the agent had positively refuséd to obey the orders of the department. e had only been suspended, but w moved, and ot his request th retary of war had directed Major James Bell, of the Seventh cavalry, 10 £o to Pine l{ulfs at once and take charge of the agency until further notice, MIL ATKINS VIEWS, Indian Comumissioner Atkins s M have the very highest opinion of McGiliicud: dy, and during all his lights I have stood by him, but he is altogether too independent and’ it is a were question whetler he shall run the department, or whether I shall. At the beginning of my administration I saw that it was necessary to have the clerks at the Indian agencies changed from time to time in order fo prevent collusion between them and the agents, and I thought that it was bet- tor for the agents and betler for the govern- ment that this. rotation in ofiice be adopted. An agent caunot make false en- tries and cannot very well swindle the government witliout the knowl- edgo of “his clerk and an honest agent ought to be willing to accept a clerk that is not dependent upon him in any way for his place.” The government has a right to re- quire agents to accept such_employes as are thought proper for their sery id the poli- cy of shifting clerks about at certain int dopted without rezard to Major 1y other man in the sery- 1y prineivle, and was not rson. Nearly all the clerks have b unged about, “There nre some left, however, but we will get around to them pretty soon and I do not mean to leave any one where he has been for - over two years, On the 215t of April I dec to siift the clerk at Standing Rock agency to Pine Ridge. The reason I discharged Daniel Brown, who hiad been MeGillicuddy’s clerk, was that he had applied for a license as a trader and it was 1ot proper that he should: remain in the sery But I was surprised at the receipt of a refusal from MeGillicuddy 1o acqui the dismissal of his clerk. No further action was taken in rezard to the until the receipt of a loiter which ly set forth detail his objeetions, here was no intention of reflecting upon Mr. MeGillicuddy’s character and the rule ap- plicd to him was' the same that had been aj- plicd to nearly all agents in the departinent, ‘R AGENTS ACQUIESCE, zonts down in New Mexico ted to having a clerk sent to him, but ) 1 told him the order was imperative he ed down and accepted the clerk, Mr, rk, whom we have assigned to Pine Ridge ney as elork, s 016 of e best men in tho secviee, but as I understand it, MeGillieuddy does not object to him, but to the rule of the department, and it Is simply & ouestion whether he shall submit or retire, TIHE FIGHT ON TARIFF, A conference of all the democratie mem- bers of the ways and means committee was held last evening of deter- mining when the tariff bill should be called up for consideration. It was decided that as s00n as the legislative and executive appro- priation bill is aisposed of, Mr. Mortison shall move to take up the tariff "bill. He ox- pects therefore to call 1t up about a week rom Wednesday and has notitied the op- ponents of the bill to that effect. 1f Mr, Randall's wishes are respeeted, the protection republicans and democrats will antagonize the motion for consideration with soume other measure, as, for example, the interstate commerce bill.

Van Wyck on Pensions. Wasm N, D. C. ay 17.—| Special Tel- egram. |—Senator Van Wyek made a el teristically strong speech on the subject of pensions in the senate this afternoon, during the consideration of the Blair pension bill. He said he understood the bill before the scnate to be a service pension under certain conditions. 1t pensioned those whoserved six months or more, who @ now disabled from any cause. He would amend the bill by making the pension uniformly $8a month to any sol- dier disabled to the extent of being unable to furnish his own support, who depended on his labor for his support. This would do away with the often unjust system of grad- ing pensions. Those who received injuries in the line of duty are already by law entitled to pensions. Senator Van Wyek urged the pepstoning of old veterans, wiether their helplessness grew directly out of their serv- 1ce or not, A LONG WAY OFF. “We said we would vote the last man and the last dollar,” said the senator, *‘to save the country and preserve the union. We voted thru last man, but the last dollar is a long way off,’ Mr., Harris—"I understand that you wonld give 88 a month for the slightest injury and none unless $8a month. Am I right?” Mr. Van Wyck—*‘No, sir: no man shall be laced on the pension roll at $8 a month un- ess disabled from supporting himself. This is a gift. a donation, to the poor and needy, and those who beg on the street, die in the poor house and are buried in pine boxes. There should be no diserimination on ae- count of a supposed injury and the present em of rating of pensions, which has ays been more or less unsatistactory and unjust, should be avoided. If we to measure disabilities under this hill have been under others, there will be great dissatisfaction.” Before a vote was taken the senate ad- Jonrned. Industrious Members.

Judge Rogers Talks Wickedly-He Instructs the Grand Jury—Spies, Schwab, and the Rest In Panger. Lamber Yard Strikers. Onrcaco, May 17.—[Special Telegram.] —Fears of fresh outbreaks of violence and disorder in the lumber districts this morn- ing were so strong that an additional poliea protection was deemed necessary. All the lumber yards were open this morn- ing, and the majority of them were working, but with diminished forces compared with the number at work Saturday. The men ap- pear to have been badly scared by threats t the stock yards crowd would gather in a mob and “clean them out” if they attempted to resume on a ten-hour basis. ‘Ihe result is that there were very many idle, but willing, workingmen in the district this morning, instead of a general return to work. The police were on the alert, and permitted no crowds to congrezate on street corners, SHORT OF TANDS All the planing mills are working, but very few of them have anything like a full force, Wherever the force of the mill was largely composed of Bohemians, the majority of the men did not begin to work. This afternoon a cireular, printed in English, Gennan, Bo- hemian and _Polish, detailing statutory pro- fons providing for the protection of prop- v and employes of manufacturers, against machinations of conspirators. was posted throushout the region and the effect is pected to be salutary when men realize {I it how much law_there would be opposed to them in any effort they mizht make to pre- yent the resumption of business by force, Secretary Hotehkiss, of the Lumbermen’s e said this morning that he was far ing that the trouble or the strike “None of the Bohemians are at work to- day,” he said, “because the imtimidating tactics decided upon at the meeting yester- day have been entirely successful. At that meeting, under pressure from the stock yard empl , it was resolved that no Bohemian shoutd return to work on the old scale, 1 the lumber yards, beeause they were per- suaded that, if they did, the packers would compel their men to tollow suit. In such an event the lumber workers were assured that summary vengeance would be visited upon them, It was — also decided that every Bohiemian who reported for work to- day would be marked for punishiment. This decision the wives of the strikers made known to the wives of Bucl were willing to work, and_terrified them by declaring that their husbands would imperil their lives by disobeying the union. The fiuence of the women has been suceesstul in keeping the men idle to-d: m not prepared to say that the continuing effect of it will not be the same, believe there will be another pitched battle between the police and the strikers before the trouble is settled. It seems to me that the Bohemians are bent upon havine it.” SPOTTING THE LEADERS, From another source equally authentic it is learned that since the beginning of the strike ents of the lumbermen have been indu: ously engaged in spotting leaders in provok- ing disturbance, and when work is resumed the wmarked men will find ‘that there are no places for them, < INDICTING ANARCHISTS, The specially imbortant work Judge Rog- ers had on hand to-day was the impaneling of the May grand jury, which is to consider the s of Haymarket anarchists and the bomb thrower, here will be probably over seventy witnesses examined before the grand ju aid a well known state official to a reporter. “It 1s impossible to say for certain what the result will be, but mg individual opinion is pies, Parsons, Schwab and the other to outrage the lawlessness, will b cted for murder, My own opinion is y shoula be strung up, ‘every G——d of them.

There is a disposi- tion among the democratic wheelhorses to push Grover Cleveland aside. Governor Will's friends have succeeded to the control of the party organization, which Manning laid down to enter the treasury. Manning was the one man whose grip was strong enough to have retained this state for Cleve- Jand under any and all circumstances.
