El Paso, Texas, Fjiday Morning, January 4 1895
Fifteenth Yeir No. a
tones under which the people were
Buffering, he said. It might have con-
tributed to their misfortunes and he
believed the passage of the present bill
would contribute to their relief, but he
depreoated the feeling abroad in the
land that for all the ills and misfor
tunes of the people they should turn
to ooogreas. black’s advocacy of state
banks of issue was ardent, but he oon
eluded by expressing, amid applause,
the opinion that the only real funotlon
of the government was the coinage of
gold and silver.
Haugben, Republican, of Wisconsin,
who followed, opposed the measure.
A Stormy Meeting.
Vienna. Jan. 3—There is consider-
able comment here regarding the al
most unprecedented scene In the So-
braje or national assembly at Sophia
Friday night, December 28, and early
Saturday morning.
Daring the debate on the credit of
50,000,000 franos asked for by the gov-
ernment for the purpose of suppressing
brigandage. M. Bosseff, the opposition
leader, declared that brigandage no
longer existed in Bulgaria and Premier
M Stiloff aeked for this money for the
purpose of establishing a system of
politioal espionage.
An uproar followed, the supporters
of the government strongly denoono
ing the assertion of the opposition
leader and M. Bosseff replying with
strong expression reflecting upon the
ministers.
This caused Stiloff to exclaim:
“You’re a liar end a slanderer.” This
served to bring matters to a most In-
tense pitch of excitement. All the
deputies sprang to their feet and harl-
ed Insults at each other, while M. Bos-
seff continued his attaok upon the
government.
Finally the president o' the Sobrsjs,
Dr. Tbedoroff, announced M Bosseff’s
expulsion from the chamber for the
remainder of the session and direoted
the quaestors to remove him from the
preoiuots of the hoase
The Liberals replied to the order
with hisses, aod with members of the
opposition grouped about him, iA
Bosseff struck at. the quaestors and
beat them off, but not until some of
the deputies had drawn revolvers.
Darlug this exalting soene, the mem-
bers withdrew and left the Liberals in
possession of the honss.
After an hour’s interval the sitting
was resumed at midnight. The op-
position protested against the action
of the government in declaring the
scene was caused by M, Stiloff oalllng
M. Bosseff a liar and a slanderer and
later tho opposition left the house la a
body In order, as they olalmed, to
avoid witnessing farther bo!b of in
justice to their oouutry and its repre-
sentatives.
Daring ths absence cf the oppcsl
tlon the deputies of the government
discussed and adopted the politioal
amnesty bill, including the proposition
to grant an amnesty to Zinkoff anc
Karaveloff. This measure is’regardec
seating the Russo Buigarioreapproaoh-
ment. After the measure had been
adopted the opposition returned to the
Sobraj9. _

Home.
if ashington, Jan. 3—Tbe resolution
heretofore Introduced by Mr. Allen,
Populist, of Nebraska, relating to the
occupation of rooms in the basement
of tbe senate wing of the oapitol for
restaurant purposes, gave rise to an
interesting debate during the moralog
hour of the eeseion of the senate to-
day.
Mr. Allen severely oritioised the
practice of fnrnishing to proprietors
of restaurants free of cost their furni-
ture, ioe, etc., and asserted it was a
violation of the statutes and consti-
tuted laroeny of the pnblio funds.
Messrs. Hale, Republican, of Maine,
and Manderson, Republican, of Ne
bra6ka, replied to the observations of
Mr. Allen and defended tbe existing
praotioe. No action was taken on the
resolution.
Tbe remainder of the day was taken
op by Mr. Morgan, Democrat, of Ala-
bama, in a epeeoh on the Nlosraguan
canal bill, In which he replied in detail
to the arguments advanced by Mr. Tur-
ple, Democrat, of Indiana, in opposi-
tion to the bill.
The senate reassembled at noon to
day after the holiday recess The obatr
laid before tbe senate a letter from the
secretary of state, transmitting a dis-
patch from the Untied States ambas
aadorat Paris, saying be had delivered
to the widow of the late President
Carnot the engrossed ooples of resolu-
tions of sympathy of the American
oongress.
Mexico City, Jan. 3—It has been
rumored that Emilio de Leon, the new
Guatemalan minister to Mexico, would
return home by reason of the new com-
plications in the bonndaries dispute.
When interviewed he expressed great
surprise that such a report bad gained
publioity. “The only reason I know
of why I should leave this city is for
tbe purpose of bringing my family
from Sau Franoieoo,” be said. “This
I will probably do in two months.”
Senor de Leon expresses himself sat-
isfied with hie reception by the Mexi-
can authorities and says audiences
with the minister of foreign relatione
are being held regularly. The Mexi-
can government has made a formal and
speoiflo demand on Guatemala indicat-
ing the amount of damages Inflicted
by tbe invading Guatemalans The
total indemnity asked is $1,868,544 14.

the Mexican governme t bases its
claim for a prior settlement, after
which it is willing to oonsider the
wishes of Guatemala on the Diquez-
Marlsoal convention Other points it
holds to be of minor importance.
A Lesion on Silver.
New York, Jan. 3—M Guggenheim
& Sons, of New York city, have during
the past few days shipped large quan-
tities of bar silver from Omaha, Kansas
Oity, Aurora and New York to the
City of Mexico for coinage by the
Mexican government mints into Mex-
ican dollars. They say that inasmuch
as the transaction involves an expense
of nearly seven per cent, consisting of
transportation and mintage charges,
it may be considered as a strong illus-
tration of the effeot which the low
prloe of silver is having on the trade
of silver countries. Moxloo exports
large quantities of coined silver and
tbe only condition which would make
tbe reimportation of bar silver for
coinage purposes possible would be a
very large dimunitiou in Imports,
oonpled with large exports of mer-
chandise. The Mexioan silver dollar
is at a premium of about 7 per cent
and foreign exobange in Mexico is at a
discount of about 7 per cent, a condi-
tion the reverse of that which now
prevails in tbe United States. Coun-
tries on a sliver basis are prospering
nnderthe low price of silver while gold
basis countries are suffering.

dent for correspondence and other pa
pars relative to the delivery by the
