He described the harrowing conditions there, characterized the scheme of auton- omy as a delusion and declared that if peace came on that basis Spain would double the war debt on Cuba. There would be resistance, and once more the fires of revolution*would be kindled. Per- manent peace could not come to the isl- and unless independence was achieved.

This sensational ep- | isode completely overshadowed the in- | terest in the Cuban debate, which has continued uninterruptedly in the House for three days, during the consideration of the diplomatic and consular appro- | priation bill. Yesterday notice was glven by Willlams (D.) of Mississippi that at the conclusion of the debate to- day a motion would made to re- commit the bill with instructions. To- day, when the motion was made by Bailey, it was ruled out of order by the Speaker. Baker thereupon startled the House by affirming that he had a pri- | vate understanding with the Speaker by which a vote should be taken di- rectly on the motion to recommit. This the Speaker emphatically denied, and these two leaders of the respective par- ties in the House, with white faces and voices shaken by emotion, set their statements against each other’s, while the galleries looked on in breathless amazement, and the members were in an uproar. Smith of Michigan, who said he was present, corroborated the Speaker’s side of the controversy. The result of the Speaker's position was that an appeal was taken from his dé- clsion and by a strict party vote it was laid on the_table, 168—114, the Demo- | crats and Populists, as on the t previous days, voting against the soli Republican strength. The debate was not as interesting as on the two pre- ceding day The features were a characteristic speech by Champ Clark of Missouri, a strong appeal for con- servatism from Johnson (R.) of Indi- ana, a presentation of his observations | in Cuba during his recent trip to the island from King (D.) of Utah, and an hour's speech by Dingley of Maine, in | explanation of the causes of the re- | duction of the wages in the New Eng- land cotton industry. ! Clark (D.) of Missour! opened the de-| 1 be bate with one of his characteristic breezy | speeches. He said “If Spain does not bring the war. to a speedy con- cluslon the United States ought to expel | her from the Western Hemisphere. There | can be no doubt as to what has been our | traditional foreign policy. What our for- elgn policy is under the McKix d- ministration, like the peace of it passeth all understanding. | oD these days of McHannaism our for- | eign policy is so feeble, so cringi =0 cowardly ‘that even old and decrepit Spain insults our flag, maltreats our citi- zens and searches our ships with perfect impunity, and President McKinley, in- | stead of sending men-of-war to protect | our honor, assert our supremacy and | teach the insolent and impotent dons a | lesson they would not forget, has | passed the hat around and invites the| American people to contribute alms for | starving and dying Cubans. “It is high time we served plain and | emphatic notice on all kings, emperors and other potentates that the navies of trans-Atlantic powers shall not be used as collection bureaus for questionable ebts, as was done a vear or two ago at | Corinto, and as was done a month or two | 8go at Haytl. The Cuban case is this: | For three " years the insurgents have fought with a courage and suffered with a fortitude that have challenged the ad- | miration of ali the world—save and ex- cept the McKinley administration. Three or four hundred thousand people have dled; men, women and children, as much martyrs in the cause of liberty as was Warren or any other hero who died that Wwe might be freed, and yet the McKinley administration lifts not its finger to stay the slaughter, and can think of nothing more effective for their benefit than to pose as the big beggarman. The party of Sumner, Chase and Seward, which | proudly vaunted itself as the friend of man, has become the ally of the pestilence | and arson, famine, devastation, rape and | murder. “To every suggestion that we should Te-enter upon a vigorous foreign policy we are met with the hysterical shriek that we are advocating war. It is not true; but suppose it were? There are some things worse than war—deplorable as it unquestionably is—and one is play- ing the cry-baby act until we are de- #pised of all nations and kindreds and tongues. “We now number over 70.000.000 souls, and a Republican administration cannot be taunted, cuffed or kicked Into resent- ing an insult or demanding reparation for an infury. Such a contemptible and pusil- lanimous policy is enough to make Grant, | Sherman, Sheridan, Dupont, Farragut and Porter restless in_thelr coffins. “My Republican friends.” said the speaker. in conclusion, “I invite you to lay aside the weight that s holding you | down; assert your rights: to come out on | the side of etérnal justice and human lib- erty, thereby demonstrating that you are worthy of the high vocation to which you are called. Democrats and Populists stand here ready to remove from Ameri- ca her great reproach. We on this side will contribute 152 votes. If only 27 Re- publicans will break the yoke, defy their taskmasters and join us in this noble work, before the sun sets this day we will send the glad tidings ringing round the world that ‘Cuba is free'; free, thank God, by the act of the American Con- gress.” At the conclusion of Clark’s remarks, Hitt ylelded to Otgen (R.) of Wisconsin, who called attention to the embezzlement of the money of Francir Hinton of Wis- consin, who died some years ago in Paris, bg' the vice-consul of the United States at that capital and the fact that there was no way by which the heirs of the de- ceased man could recover on the bonds of the Consul. Williams (D.) of Mississippi, a member of the Forelgn Affairs Commlittee, fol- lowed. He sneered at the statement of Hitt yesterday that the granting of bel- ligerent rights to the Cubans would af- ford them no advantage. “‘Shades of history and of all the peo- ple who have ever rebelled against tyr- anny,” he exclaimed, “what a pity that in part: a od, | ing down upon the turbulent scene before | the tumult that he had been present and the third party, said he was not “lying awake 0 hts_worrying over the Cu- an question.” But he was satisfied, he said, that the real secret behind the :u; ac titude of the admini ation was the that the holders of the Sr $400,000.000 in amount, wer they would get their m d the bondholding interes ch in control of the ad been during the tration, and that no action taken until the payment of these bonds had been guaranteed. After some brief pro-Cuban speeches | vy Robinson (D.) of Ind a and Coch- ran (D.) of Missourl, ley (R.) of Maine took the floor to reply to remarks made during the course of the debate relative to the wage reductions in the cotton industry. After such a revulsion of business as the country had experi- | years it was natural, ation was slow. In (the cotton industry) improvement was noted and wages had been advanced. Alongside of the 10 per cent reduction of wages in the cotton in- dustry had come an inci that in th ed indv try. mitted, that the de se w ept! sudden and unexpec of cotton. In three month had declined 30 per cent Southern planters insisted upon | ng 2,000,000 bales moi otton than Almost ery cotton factory in ) England had from six to eight months’ supply of § cent manu- | factured cotton on their hand In addition to this he pointed out the effect of the competition that had grown up in the South, where longer hours and lower wages were the vogue. Eventually the South would come up to the North- ern standard, but the temporary present | conditions gave the South the advantage. Protective tariffs could effect nothing if | the hours of labor in the several States were mnot equalized. Dingley declared that the labor organizations d com- wo vel an amendment to the constitution which weuld permit Congr to equalize hours all over the country. Dingley had a good deal of cross-firing with Southern members. The Cuban question was tem- pora sight of. and for more than tariff was talked to the exclusion Dingley sald those attering” about the lack of revenues under the new tariff | law had better be prompt about it. | “For your Gpportunity to chatter will | soon be over,” said he. *“Yesterday our | recelpts from’ customs were $%0,000. The | receipts themselves will soon silence thes: critics. At 4 o'clock the committee r the arrangement made yesterd: ported the bill to the Hc most dramatic and se On of this Congr followed. of the Ho and Bail Democratic leader, clashéd on a question of veracity and the excitement was in- tens bill, with instructions to the committee to report it back with an amendment em- bodying the terms of the Senate Cuban belligerency resolution. Hitt immedlately made the point of or- der that the amendment was not ger- mane and was obnoxious to the rule aginst new legisiation. This point the Speaker promptly sus- tained. Balléy, surrounded by a group of Demo- crats, protested that the agreement yes- terday included provision for a vote on the motion to recommit. Hitt denied this, of the motion to recommit was given af- terward. There was much confusion while Hitt was talking, and when he con- cluded Bailey suddenly electrified the House with the statement that he had had a distinct understanding to that ef- fect with the Speaker of the House, “The chair states that the gentleman from Texas is mistaken,” retorted the Speaker from the chair in the most em- phatic tones. The Speaker looked ‘exan straight in the eye and his vojce quivered with emotion. agreed that a motion which was plainly out of order would be (’nler!:flne(f The gentleman notified me that there would be no further opposition.” “And I make the statement,” declared Balley, without flinching, “that we did have such an agreement.” He, too, was evidently laboring under great stress of feeling. By this time the House was in an up- roar and the spectators in the galleries were looking on with amusement. Bailey proceeded to explain the circum- stances under which the alleged agree- ment was made. He sald that some of the members on his side desired to attend the funeral of a distinguished ex-member, Ben Butterworth, yesterday afternoon, but they desired to remain if there were to be any votes. He had approached the Speaker, he said, with the proposition of a vote on the motion to recommit. The chair had assented, he declared, and he had so informed his colleagues. “1 never knew until this motion was resented,” Interrupted Hitt, “what the nstructions were to be."” “The chalr again states that no agree- ment was made,” said the Speaker, look- him, “and if corroboration is needed he has'just been informed by a gentleman who Wwas present—"" “I think the chair will need corrobora tion,” interposed Bailey, emphatically. “I again present my statement against that of the Speaker.” The confusion at this point was very great, but the volce of Smith (R.) of Michigan could be heard shouting above that no agrcemeft had been made. ““The chalir is @illing to rest the case on the statement made by him,” declared the Speaker, as he beat the desk with his gavel in his attempt to restore order. Balley thereupon appealed from the de- cision of the chair and Dalzell moved to lay the appeal on the table. The roll was called amid much confusion, but party lines were unbroken and by a vote of 168 to 114 the appeal was laid on the table. The bill was then passed—158 to %—and at 4:40 p. m. the House adjourned. An Eastern Merchant Dies at Santa Rosa.

Bpectal Dispatch to The Call. Call Office, Riggs House, ‘Washington, Jan By the decisive vote of 41 to Senate to-day decided to proceed at | once to the consideration of the resolu- | ler of Colorado providing for the pay- ment of bonds of the United States in silver at the option of the Government. | The resolution prevides: “That all | bonds of the United States, issued or | authorized to be issued, under the said | acts of Congress hereinbefore recited, are payable, principal and interest, at | the option of the Government of the United States, in silver doliars of the | coinage of the United States, contain- ing 4121 grains each of standard sll-l ver; and that to restore to its coinage | such silver coins as legal tender in pa ment of said bonds, princl and Inter. est, is not in violation of the public faith nor in derogation of the rights of the public creditor. Vest of Missouri, the member of the Finance Committee who had charge of the resolution, spoke briefly upon it, but disclaimed any desire at this time to thresh over old straw of financial discussion. He believed, however, that the time was ripe for a reiteration with emphasis of the declaration of the Stanley Matthews resolution, which had been placed on the statute-bcoks twenty years ago, particularly in view | of recent statements of the Secretary of the Treasury, in which the President, | who had, as a member of the Hous voted for the original resolutions, evi- dently concurred. Vest announced his intention to secure a final vote upon the resolution as soon as one could be| reached, and accentuated his intention by forcing the displacement of the cen- sus bill with the Teller resolution as the unfinished business. | The day after 2 o'clock was spent in executive session. { Mills of Texas secured the passage of a | resolution directing the Secretary of War ‘ to make an examination of the Port Ar- | thur ship canal, with a view to its exten- | | sion to deep water. Gallinger of the Health and National Quarantine secured the adoption of a resolution empowering the committee to investigate the desira- bility of removing the quarantine station from Ship Island to some other point in | the Guif of Mexico. | Frye of the Commerce Committee re- | ported favorably and secured the passage | of a bill providing for the co at a cost not exceeding $70, | ship to be located near Cape E | Lodge of Massachusetts moved that the | | Senate go into executive session. This | was antagonized by Vest of Missouri, | who called attention to the fact that he | had given notice of his intention to call | up the Teller resolution. | Hoar objected to the consideration of | the resolution, but withdrew his objection | | to afford Allen opportunity to make a statement. Allen then read a statement | | directed to the President by Mrs. Roberts. She says that she is the widow of How- ard Roberts, a Union soldier, that_she was summarily discharged from the Pen- sion Office for misconduct affecting her character. Charges were referred | against her publicly and she claims to have been treated cruelly and without | opportunity to vindicate her character. | Gallinger said the presumption was that the statement of Mrs. Roberts had been properly referred and was now In the proper place to receive consideration. Gallinger then asked that the resolu- tion go over until to-morrow. The chairman neld that Lodge’s motion took precedence and the ayes and noes were demanded. The vote resulted: Ayes 27, noes 39. The motion of Vest, to take up the Tel- ler resolution, was then carried—41 to 25— as follows: Ayes—Allen, Bacon, Bate, Berry, Butler, Cannon, Chilton, Clark, Clay, Cockreil, Faulk- ner, Harris, Heitfeld, Jones of Arkansas, Ken- ney, Kyle, ‘McEnery, Mallory, Mantle, Martin, Muills, Mitchell, Money, Morgan, Perkins, Pettil rew, ~ Pettus, Pritchard, Quay, Rawlins, Roach, Shoup, Stewart, Teller, Tiliman, Tur- ple, Vest, Walthall, Warren, White and Wol- cott—41.

He said that twenty years had passed since the Matthews resolution was first put on the statute books, but he believed that there was no reason why there should be re. iteration of the resolution and the dec- larations contained therein. Vest main- tained that If the resolutions were orig- inally correct and proper they were cor- rect and proper at the present time. !“They do not in any sense,” said Vest, “involve either repudiation or dishonor.” The Senator maintained that the issue involving the consideration of the reso- lution had been thrust ?on the Senate by the administration, and that the Sena- tors were required either to remain silent and by their silence give tacit assent to the recent declarations of the Secretary of the Treasury in favor of a gold stan- dard, those declarations being evidently indorsed by the President, or else to re- affirm the Stanley Matthews resolutions, which had been passed by the Senate by a vote of more than two to one and by the Hor by an overwhelming majority.

BOLD ROBBER FOILED BY A BANK' CASHIER Sensational Scenes at a Portland Bank. A Lone Bandit Promptly Driven to the Street by Bullets. Well-Laid Plans to Loot the Institution Come to Naught. ESCAPE OF THE OUTLAW Makes His Way Through Groups of Excitea People, Mounts His Horse and Rides Awa Spectal Dispatch to The Call. PORTLAND, Jan. 20.—A daring at- tempt was made to hold up the cashier and rob the Citizens’ Bank, on the northeast corner of East Washington street and Union avenue, to-day shortly after 3 o’clock. who drove the robber from the bank and took a parting shot at him as he passed from the bankroom into the street. He missed by aiming a little too high. the is are constantly passing along streets during the afternoon, and surrounded by business houses, the rob- | ber evaded every one and effected his escape unscathed. When he saw he was foiled in his purpose he hastily left the bank, hurried around the block and mounted a horse he had tied be- forehand on the other side of the same block. The entrance to the bank faces the center of the intersection Washington and Union avenue by means of double doors. The bank had Jjust closed for the day and Mr. Lam- bert had pulled down the window shades. dealer, w: on East Washington stree' and is in the rear of the bank buiiding, being only separated from the bank room by a small room and two doors, one of which was open. He had just been talking to a customer when he aroused by the shot Cashier Lambert thug and dashed into the bank to as- certain the cause. The street in front of the bank was at the time deserted, but the report of the pistol soon caused a great crowd to gather from every direction. The scene for a time resembled that when the First National Bank of East Portland was held up by Preacher J. C. Read, about four years ago. From the evidence at hand, it clear that the highwayman had care fully planned his work. He was seen at 10 o'clock in the morning to make an examination of the rear of the building in which the bank is located. He was also seen by the same person a few minutes before the attempted robbery, surveying the ground. The presence of his horse also forces the conclusion that he had carefully plan- ned his escape. During his brief stay in the bank he dropped a pair of spectacles, his mask, ! and outside the door his hat, a light felt one. Another hat and mackintosh which he left behind for some,reason or other were found in the rear of the building, where he had been seen to put them by a woman, only a few min- utes before his attempt on the bank took place. The would-be robber is described as a man of medium height, looking rath- er like a laborer, with a sandy beard and florid complexion. He was dress- ed fairly well, but with an evident ef- fort at style, as his pants were neatly creased. The local police and detective force have done nothing with the case so far, and probably will not. WIND-CP OF THE UBER 1NOUIRY Rumored That the Grand Jury Will Present Nine Indictments. Witnesses Who Fail to Appear and Are Believed to Have Left the Country. Special Dispatch to The Call. CARSON, Nev., Jan. 20.—The Grand Jury is closing its labors in Genoa. Last night Judge Mack, for the first time since the meeting of the Grand Jury, remained over night in Genoa. To-day he was closeted with the District Attorney and Foreman Cock for several hours. It is said on the streets this evening that nine indictments are being made out and will be presented, but many shake their heads and say that the recess from to-morrow until Monday is too long an interval if the Grand Jury means business. Chris Jensen, spected of being one of the lynchers, was before the jury to-day and swore that he was in Carson thnat night. Many witnesses were called to- day to contradict statements made by suspected men who were before the jury on the defensive. Charles Hyronomous and Abe Rice saw the mob from the win- dows of the hotel opposite the jail, but when before the Grand Jury said they were unable to identify any of the Ig:r- sons in the mob. Henry Mack, tz Deerman, Willlam Murphy and Mrs. ‘Whittaker were recalled to-day. The lynchers have their agents in Ge- noa and Carson and will bring their pres- sure on the jury between the Friday night adjournment and the meeting on Monday.” They need six men to hola out against action, and it {s expected that they will resort to intimidation and bri- bery to protect themselves. At the present writing the Indications are in favor of indictment. The Sheriff was sent out last night after two wit- nesses, who having _been summoned failed to materialize. It is rumored that g‘ley{n have left the country to avoid tes- 8. SR Nearly Equals the Fiy-Casting Record.
