THE OMAHA e DAILY PARTY LINES DISREGARDED Eenators Think for Themselves on the 8il- ver Question. BAD FEELING UNEXPECTEDLY CROPS OUT Yesterday's Debate of More Than Usual Tuterest—Voorhees Disiikes Sugges- tlons from the Republican Side —Proceedings in the House. Wasnixarox, Sept. 8, %he bad feeling which has cropped out occassionally burst forth quite unexpect- edly. Party lines are apparently totally dis- regarded in the present contest and sec tional divisions seem to furnish the line of demarkation, Mer. Teller, republican, of Colorado, will oceuny the floor tomorrow and he today announced that he would speak as long as he thought the senate would care to sit on Saturday. When the resolution of Mr. Wolcott, call- Ing for information as to the amount paid in bounties on maple sugar, was laid before the scnate that senator said that on yesterday he had declined to accept the suggestion of Mr. Gallinger, republican, of New Hamp- 8'iire, to enlarge the scope of the resolution 80 a8 to include all sugars, He had modified the resolution to comprehiend the suggestion of Mr. Gallinger and asked its adoption. The resolution was agreed to, Faulkner's Dosire for Silver. At 12:45 the repeal bill was taken up and Mr. Faulkner, democrat, of West Virginia addressed tho senate, He smd he would present an amendment for the coinage Of 83,000,000 in silvor per month util £800,- 000,000 was in circulation. He predicted £50.000,000 this fiscal year. Mr. Turpie, democrat, of Indiana, said thd issue biere was not whether the United States should not further coin and use silver as money, but the question was whether tho purchase’ of silver for coinage purposes should be continued. The act of purchase was vice in the scheme. It placed upon silver coin tho brand ofgbondage. It was unsound, dishonest money, degraded by law. Mr. Jones, democrat, of Arkansas, said he did not believe the present condition of the country was brought about by the Sher- man act, and it would pass away without the repeal of that uct. On the contrary, the limited coinage of silver had acted as o measure of relief in the financial stringency; that the stringency was cavsed by the wealthy few, and it romained to ve seen whother the’ representatives of 65,000,000 frec people would submit to their insclent domination. He stood ready, ho said, to re- peal the whole of the Sherman act, but he wonld not, in pretended compliance with the Chicago platform, which demanded the re- peal of the entiré law, vote to repeal the only good feature of the law, leaving it iuiquities in full force, That would bea more cowardly makeshift than the Sherman Inw, and it would be as groat a fraud as was the action of 1878, Peraistont Voorhees. It was now 8:80 o'clock aud Mr. Voorhees suid he would not ask an unreasonable Res- sion, but he thought half past i an unreason- able hour to adjourn. 1f there were no ser tors who desired to speaic he would have to ask a vote, Mr. Hals, republican, of Mame, hoped that Mr. Voorhees, if he could control the situation, would not consent to an adjourn- ment. The senators had only been in ses- slon three hours and a half. The senator from Tndiana haa given up the 11 o'clock proposition and also-found himself in danger of losing ke two morning hours, e called his (Voorhees’) attention to the fact that he wis cut down to a_very slender thread of time to be cousumed by speechmaking. The republicans hud refrained from taking up time by answering speeches made on tho other side, with the exception of Mr. Shor. man, the veteran leader upon financial measures, and perhaps one or two others who were in favor of repeat. They had sat silent n their seats, ready to vote atall times and they were fow ready, willing and desirous of voting. 1t was apparent that Senator Voorhees had not receivea the remarks of Mr. Hule 1n good fecling, Ho rose, and in thunderous tones said: “The zeal'of the senator from Maiue for the repenl of the Sherman act and bis desire to assist the senator from Ind. is deeply appreciated. 1t would be more however, if iu these six weeks he had bo 1 his seat more than one week. I aesive to say_ to him, aud o all concerned. that tho senator from Indiana expeets to discharge his duty as he secs it, and not according to the desires of the senator from Maine or that side of the chamber,” Would Not Yield t In the senate today © Floor. Mr. Hule rose, but the senator from Indi- ana deciined to yield, Ho continued ; ho senator Jrom Maine Lias taken a monopoly of the critivism of my action. He has taken a monopoly of direction, of lecturing and of dictation and of nugging. Tho whole coun- try knows that the senator from Indiang occupies Lrying position, with men of long tried friendship on this side of the chamber not concurring with bim in his views ang 1 his course. The resuitis that 1 am doing what we will all be required to sny when we come to sum up life's result—the boest we can.” M. Hale replied that the statement that hie had been ubsent from the seunte was an error, excepting for one week, when it was understood that nothing was to be doue, Ho sald his sucgestions wore only in the inter @t of helping the senator froni Indiana, I have hud quite a surfeit of that kind of help from that source,” replied Mr. Voor- hecs, with bitterness, “L do not wish,” continued Mr. Hale, ‘o make tho position of the chawman of tho committee on finance uncomfortable, and position taken by the senator from Nevada (Mr, Stewart) when that legisiation was pending. That senator had denounced the act of 1878 as an infamous crime when, in fact, he voted for it upon roll call The senate went into executive se and soon adjourned. ion WAYS AND MEANS MMITTER. Suggestlons Concerning the Tarfl that Were Made to it Yesterday. WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.—J. A, Stevens, rep- resenting the Ludlow Manufacturing com- vany of Massachusetts, made a plea before the ways and means committee today for the retention of tha duty on jute bagging and binding wwine made from hemp and jute. He based his appeal on two grounds: First—The heavy cost of 1mported machin- ery and buildings. constituting enormous fixed charges, Second—The differenco i the cost of labor. ‘Lhe present duty s 6,10 cents per square yard. He said the duty could be reduced to 1 ceni without material injury to the in- dustry, M. Turner took Mr. Stevens in hand and gave him a sovere shaking up “You want protection,” said he, “against cheap labor in Indiat" “Do you think, then, that it is fair and equitable to make the farmer of the south, who produce cotton and who also pay higher wages thun India does, pay & higher pric for his bagging and then go into the markets of tho world and compete in price with the Indian cotton erower!” *T apprehend,” replied Mr. Stevens, “that the answer to that question involves th whole theory of protection or free trade [Laughter.] ‘“And you don't care to go into that” *No, sir.” Being closely pressed, Mr. Stovens ad- mitted that the jute trust hud taken advan tage of the protection accorded by the tarift and that its prices had been a great hurd- ship on the southern farmer. I it should put up prices again I should be willing that the manufucturers of jute bagging should bo punished by placing bag- ®ing on the free list.! Leopold Moritz of Philadelphia, a facturer of bone buttons, who talked broken English, regaled the committe along account of landed at Castle G manu- ve with his expericnce when he rden years ago s a Ger- man immigrant boy. This so whetted the keen appetite of the fun-loving members that he was induced to go into a_ philosoph- ical discourse on the scheme of human_ life, which gradually d intoa hist ical and detailed narrative of how he came to be in the bone button business. When he had exhausted himselt without touching his subject, he gathered up the boxes of buttons he had brought with him and gave the com- wittee this parting salute: “You got nodings more to say. nodings neider, o ve qvit. At the afternoon session Hon. M. Storer, @ repubiican representative from Cincinnati, presented a memorial trom a large number of brewers in his district in favor of the reduction of the duty on hops. He coutended that this was an ins! where protection did no protect. Hoy ouly produced to any great exteut in three states, New Yoris, Wisconsin and Califoruia, while brewing isa big indtsiry in every state of the union. Representative Fitch of New York sup- ported this appeal for a reduction of the duty on hops in & short specch and then in- troduced Hugh ¥. Fox, whom he deseribed as o “grower and experter, and an importer of hops.” Mr. Fox spoke ou behalf of the importers. He declared a duty of S cents ample to proteet tke American grower and produced a table showing how prices had fallen with the increase of the duty Representative Myer of New Orleans was also heard in support of the pioposition for the reduction of the duty on hops. William Wilkins of Baltimore, a manufac- turer of curled hair and bristies, followed with a plea for the retention of the present duty on those articles, Louis Merifield of Baltimore, representing the cigarmakers of that city, asked for a reduction of the duty of .75 and $2 per pound on Sumatra tobacco to a specific duty of 35 cents. He claimed that this duty was levied for the benefit of New England to- bacco growers and amounted to fully 50 por cent. He went so far as to charge that ne of the more we anufactur- s were favoring the retention of this high duty in order to crush the small coucerns, Adjourned. Tain't got CLOTURE WILL » INVOKED, Conditlons Which Surround the Cons thy of the Repeal Bill In the Se WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.—The last extremity of cloture is not to bo invoked by the Amer- ican senate. The heavy majority of mem- bers is in favor of the unconditional repeal of tho purchasing clause of the Sherman act, but this majority has been carefully volled, and {v has declaved that the condi- tlons are not sueh as to warrant the radical departure from the time-honored traditions of the senate that would be necessary to securo a cloture of debate and force the re- peal bill to the final vote. To one unfamiliar with the situation the events of the last few days have been uninteresting and unim- portant. But toone who has observed the repeated conferences in the lobbies of the atnbers, and is aware of the conferences daily held between the president and load- rlicipated 10 almost invaria- ¥ of the Treasury Carlisle, the events have been full of promisc—not of the passage of the uuconditional repeal vill, but of & compromise measure, "The senators who have openly expressed themselyes in favor of unconditionat repeal und they are nearly three-fifths of the sonate—have been consulted as to the advisability of the loture rule and the result hus been that less than thirty of the ecighty-six senutors have expressed them- selves in favor of resorting to such extreme measures. This startling cloture, therefore, will not be attempted, that senator snould not be so sensitive about helping the republicuy =i 'e," “Will the senator,” said Mr, “nleaso select some other sion the next time he tak my manug 10 ussail m Mr Hale disclaimed any intention of re- flecting upon the senator from Indiana, and said the lutter was doing aill he could to sceure the passuge of tho fifll fuithfully and ably. M. Voorhees said he could not re compliment to the senator from cause if ho were doing the best he could ho would tuke his scat. (Laughter.) A Word to the Fublie, Continuing, be said he wanted to word to the public. Anxious us he wus to press the matter Lo a vote e had, in defer ence to the wishes of men in whom he had had confidence all his life, withdrawn o res- olution for the carlier meeting of the senute which he would have been glad to have adopted. There was consolation in the fact that the public businesy,of the country was discounting tho passuge’of the bill, “The house hus passed the bill. It is known that the senate” will pass 1t. (Tnis Mr. Voor- hees suid with great earnestness.) In 4 little while iv will be behind us insteud of before us.” . Senator Dubois. republican, of Idaho, said that Mr. Halodid uot represent all the re- publicaus, It scenied diflicult for Mr, Halo Lo realize the fact that the republicans had lost coutrol of the senate. - M. Teller explained why it was that be proferred to proceed tomorrow instead of today, aud that he had nover known so im- portunt u measure to have been pressed 5o rupldiy as the repeal bill had been, 1here bad been no uunecossary delay. So far us ho M. Teller) was concerned, he - intended to ebate this question until he thoroughly satlsfied Linsolf that ke hua discharged his duty to his constitulents, that he hus dis eharged his. duty to the peoplo of the United States, that hehad discharged his duty to the unborn millious who were to sufforiftho roposed peruicious logislation wure cuacted nto law Voorhees, subject for discus: s the floor besides ment of this bill, unless he wan s turn that Maine, be- ny Aldrich, republican, ot e e \0f Rbode Isiund, spoke | 1878 in refercuce to un} Plans of the Misority, With eloture finally abandoned, there re- main but two alteinatives for the repeal senators—a compromise ora defeat at the hands of a filibustering minority. That the minority intend to filibuster no one can doubt. = Compromise, therefore, will be at- tempted, Toduy this has been about the only theme of discussion among the leaders of the senate and a series of conferences are t0 be held from time to time until the end of next week, when it is hoped a clear majority will be found wedded to & proposition which will also pacify the minority, ‘The proposition of compromise now unde discussion and 1eetiug with the greatest favor, proviaes that, coupled with the bill repealing the purchasing clause of the Sher- man act, thereshall be s law directing the etary of the treasury to buy monthly a consigerably reduced amonnt of silver bul- lion and to actually coin it into money.

Concessions to state banks are also discussed It is certain that no single item of the above propositions can reccive u majority 1vote of the senate. The four separaté and distinct subjects which it is proposed to fn- clude in the repeal bill as the various com- prowise amendinents thereto represent th four fuctions into which the United States senate way be said to be divided at this time. Nobe of these factions would get what it has been demanding, but each would get slight concessions and would retire from the couflict free with the laurels of 4 partial victory und free from the onus of defeut. ———— Made wn Assignmont.

It extends throughout the United States and to far countries and threatens destruction to one of the giunts in the fight. The entire producing capacity of the country is involved on oneside or the other and iv seems since war to the death has been declared that something must break before peace is restored. While the conflict lasts consumers will be benefited by a reduction to tho extent of about 25 per cent in the price of ofl. More than two years ago the Linseed Oil trust was formed. Later the mills of the trust, some forty-two in number, wero merged into a corporation with a capital of $18,000,000 under the title of the National Linseed Oil company. Forty- two mills turned over their property and took trust stock, and alwost an equal number were left outside because their owners could nov get such terms as they desired for them. and as soon as the trust was ready for business or ex- ceedea in any ouher indusiry. The trust's stock ruled low in the 20s when it should have been quoted 100 per cont above that figue onfthe exchange, the trust people said. When the Row Commenced. At a conference an agreement was arrived atwhich has never been made public, It was known that the principal terms were on prices, and for some time quotations were firm at 49 cents per gallon, each side adhering to this price. It is sud by friends of the trust that as the time for which the agreement was made ap- proached anend, some of the outsiders of- fered to get in, but were refused. Fricnds of the outsiders said that a strong agreement to stand together to fight the giant was quietly made. Litowever this may be, prices began to drop, and when the original agreement ex- pired a few days ago oil was offered at 86 cents, which producers say is about cost, with seed strong at $1.03 per bushel. Witn falling prices of product, the price of trust stock began to dwindle and it can be bought today for somewhere between 14 and 15, a decline of more than 10 points. I E. Pett it, who represents the Nationn Linseed Oil compuny in the Chicago district was Seen at his ofiice. He confirmed the ramors of war and said the situation now amounts to a case of the survival of the fit- est, *I8 your company attempting to force in outside concerns?’” was asked. Clulms There is No Trust. “No," he replied. *Our company has ro- fused to take any of those fellows in. Prices are down to about cost of production and no one knows where it will end.” 1 G. McCullough, secretary of the Na- tional Linseed Oil compuany, asserted that the decline in stocks und the fall in the prices of tne commodity were due solely to the stringency of the time. ““We uro confronted by this strange con- dition” observed Mr. McCullough. “We have no unusually large supply of the product, yet the price has been coming down.” According to the manager af the National Linseed Oil mpunys works there in no linseed oil trust to be broken up. “The Natioval Linseea Oil compuny,’ said he, “owns about forty carries on ke manufacture of oil in various places in Minnesota, Wisconsin, lowa.

Identity of the Two Dead Outlaws Who Tried to Rob the Delc Bank. Drrra, Colo., Sept. 8.—Two of the posse who started yesterday in pursuit of the bandit who, with two companions, held up the Farmers and Merchants bank, killing the cashicr in doing so, returned herc late this evening. They report naving been within half a mile of the [fugitive, but their horses were inferior to his and they could not overtake him, Other parties are in vursuit and although the out- law has taken to the mountains iy is thought that he will be captured. His two companions, who were killed while attempt- g Lo gt away with the bank's money, are still shrouded in mystery as to their identity, but they are thought to have been in the west for some time and to have robbed the bank at Telluride in 1888, 12x-Chicf of Police Farley of Denver is of the opinion that they belong to the Me- Carthy gang which operated so extensively in Oregon, 1t will be remembered that Tom McCarthy has been settied upon as the man who robbed D. H. Moffatt of the First National bank of Denver of some $21,000 in broad daylignt about four years ago, Tho gang has been partially dispersed. One of the McCarthys and Raf Lewis are now hay- wmg & trial for bauk robberies in Oregon, Bill and Tom are still at large and seem to defy 2l attempts at capture A short time ago Mr. Farley received word from an Oregon sheriff, who has been trailing the McCarthys for along time, in- forming him that a recent clew had been ob- tained to the whereabouts of the gang. The section mentioned was within a short Uis- tance of Delta. That is what gives Mr. Farley a strong conviction as to their identity, The names registered at the Central hotel by thestwo bandits who were killed are Jumes and Clarence Bradley and they ap- Ppear o be brothers FOUND FLOATING IN THE LAKE, Body of K.

Cu1caGo, Sept. 8.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bee. |—Iv has been proven almost be- youd a doubt that the body found in the lake at the foot of Pearson street today is that of H. B. Stout, the son of W. H. B. Stout, a well known und formerly wealthy contractor of Lincoln, Neb. ~Anold friend of the Stout family came to Sigmund’s morgue this morn- ing and positively identiiea two photographs found on the body us pictures of the wife and child of the zer Stout. “I knew the whole family well, as 1 formerly lived Lincoln,” said the gentleman who recog- nized the picture. “W, H. B. Stout was formerly & prominent contractor and is well kunown ‘all over Nebraska. The father is wealthy and the son neyer did anything, so whee the elder Stout lost his wealin the son was stranded. His wade left him several years ugo and has never lived with him since. He never amounted to much, and for some time I guess he has been in hard luck Oue foot was slightly crippled and they say thut is the case with this body, so I think there 16 no doubt that it is the son of W. H. B. Stout.” On the insidge of the cuffs “H. B. Stout” was stamped. In & pocket A veturn trip Grand Army of the Republic ticket to Lin- coln, Neb., was found und there was u dia- mond ring on the left hand. A lotter was sent to W. H.

The Houso of Lords was crowded when the earl of Cranbrook, con- servative, resumed the debato on the home rule bill. The lord high chancellor, Lord Herschell, during the course of his able plea for the bill, asked if things were left alone would there be no danger from the American sympathizers with the cause of Irelana. Lord Herschell admitted the difficulty of framing a home rule measure which would not be open to objection, but remindod his nearers they must not 'forget that a small number of men of English blood framed the United States constitution, which stood the test of 100 years and which had been the ad- miration of the world. “Surely.” he con- tinued, ‘we are not reduced to such a state of impotency as to be unable to improve the relations existing between the Irish and the Euglish.” Presented a Brilliant Spectacte. The House of Lords presented a brilliant, and almost_unprecedented spectacle when at 10 p. m. Lord Salisbury rose to deliver the last speech in opposition to the homo rule bill. The house was filled in overy part with people anxious to hear the decision of the loras upon the measure which had been 80 long debated iu and out of parliament. Not only was the houso ltself filled with peers but all the corridors and approaches thereto were packed with people, “eager to be in at the death,’” Prominent among the crowd wore Rt. Hon. Joseph _ Chamberlain, Rt. Hon. Arthur James Balfour, late chief secrotury for Ire- land, and a host of minor lights of the Britisk political world: The United States minister, Thomas F.

The general impression here, however, is that the revolt will collapse through lack of Any co-overation from land forces. The loyalty of Rio seems fully assured, more- over, and even a body of railroad employes, who tore up a portion of the track before the rebel ship left the harbor in order to prevent the prompt arrival of troops from Shuhable, have abandoned the idea of aid- ing the revolters and perfect quietude reigns in that city. The Brazilian minister to Uruguay, who has just returned from the frontier after settling the international troubles there, has had a long telegraphic confercnce with President Peixoto. Reports published in Buenos Ayres of a federal victory in Rio are untrustworthy. Telegraphic communication is still cut off. Peuce on the Bordor, Reports from the Uruguayan frontier say that the Brazilian minister has taken strong measures to prevent further outrages by his countrymen upon Uruguayan citizens. The officers accused of responsibility for the murder of Lieutenant Cardoza haye been arrested and will. be court. martialed. Colonel Casto takes the place of General Fsidoro as chief of tho garrison of Supta Anna and order has been ro-established by tho Brazilian minister and the chief of the army with the Uruguayan forces.

Thoe temporary organization was made per- manent. Irank Dolezal moved the selection of delo- ates to the state convention by call of the wards, and read a list that he had _prepared with the assistance of L. D. Rich- ards. The motion was seconded by Kondmaster Crooks of the Elichorn, Objection was made to the wording of the resolution, asthe Maxwell men were nos disposed to allow a rider on the mocion, and it was moved to elect one delegate at a time, ‘I'he matter was discussed at some length the Frick contingent arguing in favor o railronding the original motion, and tho Maxwell ‘men protesiing against the adop- tion of a_cut-and-dried program and the election of a cut-und-dried tickes. Richards Declares Himsell, Mr. Richards finally concluded that it was time to declare himself, He said that it wis simply o question of Frick or Maxwell, He admitted thatthe slate named was in favor of Frick, and declared that all talk was o useless waste of time, ‘‘as we have canvassed the situation and all know whas the vote will be, he vote was taken by roll callon the amendment to elect oneat a time, and re- sulted as follows: Yeus, 43; nays, 60, This was a fair representation of the respective strength of the opposing fac- tigas.

J.J. King found his name on each and withdrew from both, as he was certain he could not serve two gods or candidates. “The roll call resuited in the election of the Frick delegates by 4 vote of 70 to 89, and when it was anvounced the anti-Maxwell crowd indulged in a joyful demonstration, On motion of Cleland the endorsement wat made unanimous, Mr. Frick was called out and_thanked tho convention, promising that if elected he would serve all the people well and faithfully. He aeclared that neither success nor defeat would make any difference with his republi- canism, and that he had become a candidate on the broud principles of American citizen- ship. He wanted ro more political aspe; sions cast, as he had no desire to be elected on the ruin of friend or foe. He did not want his fricnds to cast any more personal reflections on his political foes, and only asked of ywe delegutes that they act weil their parts, Kesolutions Bubmitted, Chairman Haminond of the committee on resolutions submitted the following repor Resolved, That the delegntes to the repub- lican state convention be requested to present the name of Hon.
