DEFEAT OF THE PORTO RICAN BILL THREATENED Republican Senators Spend Another Day in a Fruitless Attempt to Arrive at an Agree- ment on the Measure. ASHINGTON, March 13.—The Republican Senators were in caucus for two and a half hours on the Porto Rican bill this afternoon, and at § o'clock adjourned until 2 o'clock to-morrow, when the discussion will be resumed. No vote was taken upon any of the various propo- sitions laid before the caucus, but as a result of the caucus talk the impression prevailed that there was a great deal of opposition to the bill, which opposition. if it were not piacated, might endanger its passage. It was also apparent that a number of other Senators thought the legisiation was ill-advised, but, while op- posed to the bill, would vote for it as a party measure. Deep feeling was displayed over the question by a number of Senators, and especially by those of the Middle West, some of whom did not hesitate to affirm that effort to place a tariff upon the ge of business between the United States and Porto Kico probably would have an injurious effoct upon the Repub- lican party in these States. An Agreement Expected. There were some sharp passages atarms. It was generally agreed. however, that from a party standpoint aimost any bill was betier than none, and this feeling gave the friends of the measure hope, despite the abparently unyielding attitude of the opposing factions. They are still holding to the bill as originally introduced @nd cxpress the pelief that it will form basis of whatever settlement is agreed This opposition is based upon what id In a general way and not upon v the caucus, for there was | hing approaching a vote during the | One indication that an_agree to-morrow 1s expected is the co determination of the Cuban sub- nued for goods going to Porto Rico said that course would be humane in princl- ple, since it would afford free entry of food and supplies needed by the Porto Ricans, while the tariff on goods coming into thig country would supply revenue for the island and retain the principle of protection. Several the times during debate the course of the administration was men- tioned and the statement made that the country was aroused because it had seemed that Congress was acting con- trary to the wishes of the President. Sev- eral Senators asserted that the President was now anxious for the proposed tariff of 15 per cent. Benator Foraker talked at considerable length and vigorously supported the bill, and was expressly determined that the governmental features should not be | abandoned. He also defended the tariff | provisions as being of advantage instead | of a hardship upon the people of Porto Rico. He declared that the bill as amend- | ed by the committee, levying a 15 per cent duty on products both ways, was the best" measure that could be passed, but said he was willing to accept the compromise levying a duty only on Porto Rican pro- ducts coming to this country. Hanna Favors the Bill. Senator Hanna made a speech that was listened to with great interest. He fa- | vored the House bill, and espectally the | tariff provisions. He saild that from a | arty view the tariff ought to remain, his was a Republican Congress and | there should be Republican legislation. If the bill were “defeated, he asserted, it would hand the legislation over to the Democrats. He spoke of the effect a free | trade measure would have upon the work- | ingmen, who feared the effect should the policy of free trade with the Philippine slands be established by granting free | trade to Porto Rico. He urged the Re- | publicans to stand firmly together for the bill. Senator Proctor of Vermont said that he belfeved In free trade with Porto Rico, | and thought the matter could be adjusted by leaving a miliitary Governor and not | attempting either a civil government or tariff legislation at the present time. | Senator Fairbanks deplored the situa- | tion and expressed hope that there might be some adjustment. He said there was no question as to the feeling of the peo- ple in his State, who were for free trade with Porto Rico. Senator Davis, who recently introduced an amendment extending that portion of the constitution relative to taxation over the island, made quite an extended speech, taking strong grounds in favor of free trade with Porto Rico. He said 1t was not because the tariff would Keep out or let in certain products that Con- gress should act, but because the almost universal sentiment of the people should be heeded—a sentiment which he sald | had been kindled by the manner in which ' | agriculture In free trade with the islands, | not to hold the Philippines, but to grant Porto Rico had come into the United States. He sald that there was no need to fear that In extending the constitution over Porto Rico it would mean like ac- tion when legislation for the Phfll?plnel was under consideration. Each island and group should be and would be dealt with separately and 1ndefiende‘mly. It would be time fo consider the Philippines’ tariff when it was reached. Supported by Perkins. Senator Aldrich did not take any Ru‘- ticular side, but counseled action which would unite the Republican majority. | Senator Perkins, as well as other mem- bers of the Porto Rican committee, want- ed the bill agreed upon without compro- | mise or amendment. Quite a number of Senators in this connection expressed the opinion that a majority would vote for the | bfll as reported and took occasion to crit- icise the unstable policy which was being ursued, saying that the constant chang- ng had done more to shake the faith of the country than anything else. Senator Simon of Oregoun, ¥hose posi- tion was not known, went further than any other Senator in dedarln? his un- alterable position in favor of free trade with Porto Rico. He said that we had no right to tax our dependencies and that if | we did not intend to treat new acquisi- tions as we treated other acquired terrl- tory we should not retain them. He saw no menace to labor, manyfacturing or tut a promise of far greater increase of commerce. Senator Mason also took strong ground in favor of free trade with the islands if they were to be retained as a possession or part of the United States. He sald the trouble was not with Porto Rico, but with the Philippines. This could be averted easily by announcing our determination | them the freedom which many of them sought, and assist them to form a stable government. It would not be difficult then to enter into satisfactory trade rela- tions with them and our laboring men would not then be threatened with cheap Malay labor, which, he said, seemed to be troubling a_great many advocates of the present tariff. | Senator Spooner urged party harmony, and believed that the Senators could find some common ground upon which dif- ferences could be adjusted. He was for | the committee bill, as was also Senator | Hale, who spoke against what he said | were the dangers lurking in our attempt- ing to control and to legislate for the dis- tant {slands of the Pacific. RUNAWAY CARS CAUSE A VERY 34D ACCIDENT A Huge Derrick Used in Bridge Building De- molished. e William Henry Is Seriously Injured at Pinole and Several Workmen Have Narrow Escapes From Death. del el Special Dispatch to The Call. PINOLE, March 13.—At this place to- day, where the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Railway crosses the coun- ty road, occurred a disastrous smash-up, which resulted in the serious injury of William Henry and the narrow escape from death of a large number of Work- men A temporary bridge had been construct- ed and the rails lald up to that point to allow the transportation of heavy material ssary to construct a Two flatcars holding two immense girders were standing on the bridge and the men were busy ad justing the tackle to lower the girders position when, with hardly a mo- t's warning, three heavily laden flat- s rushed out of the long cut and col- ided with the cars on the bridge. Will- jam Henry was caught beneath the wreckage and had his leg broken and was otherwise erely ~injured. When the cars struck the last of tnose which had two ralls, hundred yards, but still held the All four of the remaining cars were weighing twenty-seven tons was knccked down to the road leaving one end resting on the bridge. The accident was caused by three cars breaking loose from a construction train, seven miles from the scene of the wreck. A gang cf men were distributing cros: arms for the telegraph line from the car and when the train reached the top of the grade and commenced to desc the other side it was discovered that the three head cars had broken from the train. They were soon beyond the con- trol the trainmen. There were no d the men who were on them were powerless. After making efforts to check the cars by throwing ties in front of the wheels they were compelled to abandon them. 7The men followed as fast as they could, well of The great derricks used in placing the steel girders for the bridge were com- pletely demolished, and a number of per- sons who were near the bridge had nar- row escapes from being caught under the wreck, Captain Bermingham had barely passed under the bridge with his team when the crash came. It will be several days before the wreck will be cleared owing to the great diffi- culty in getting apparatus sufficiently powerful to move one of the immense girders now 1ving on the cars, which are too badly disabled to be moved. All lay- ing of rail beyond this point toward Point Richmond has ceased.

After a chase across the continent | Gwin was caught and taken to Maine, where he was charged with bigamy, but ‘was ~ admitted to bail. He immediately left for California and went to live with Eva Lake, whom he had married in Do- ver, Me. The decree nisi issued by Judgs Braley was not in full effect when this was done, hence the prosecution. The first wife created a sensation by with- drawing her suit for divorce before the decree nisi became absolute and this act, so far as Massachusetts law was con- cerned, made Dr. Gwin still her legal husband. All attempts to induce Eva Lake Gwin to come from California have been fruit- less. She is an only child and an heiress. Gwin did not present himself at Dover, Me., on Saturday to answer to the charge of bigamy and his attorney obtained a stay. Gwin will now attempt to get a divorce from his first wife in Califorma and thus legalize his second marriage. His defense was that he had been advised that he did not need to wait for the de- cree nisi to become absolute before mar- rying again. JUDGE CHARGES BLACKMAIL.
