Is laadar of tha mlddla of tba road
foroas In this stats, today publishad
an attack on Wm. J. Bryan.
Prof. Batsman says Populist Oon«
grsasman Fraaman Koowlaa, of Bouth
Dakota, wblla on a rsoant trip to his
old homa tn Bkowhsgao, Mains, gars
out tha information that Bryan’s ra
oant gift of 91500 to tha Populist
national oommittss was mad* with tha
distinct undsrstandlog that no notion
against fusion should bs takan by tba
Paoplas’ party at tba naxt national oon
vsntlon.
This, Professor Batsman also says, is
nothing mors than dlraot brlbsry.
Profeasor Bateman also eaya that
Bryan haa appended hla (Bateman’s)
name to Senator Allan’s Uttar of no-
tification given out last Saptambsr.
Bateman was seorstary of tbs notittoa
tlon oommlttaa, but did not sign tha
latter In question. Ha says Bryan’s

political forgsry. Batsman la a dele-
gate of tha mlddla of tha road national

Washington, June 21—Tba senate
made giant atretobaa on the tariff bill
today, covering flfty-alx pages, and
establishing a raoord for progress dur
Ing this tariff debate.
Tha last two sobadulaa of tha dutia-
ble llet, oovarlng paper and mannfao
turad aundrlaa, ware completed with
tha exception of paragraphs on hides,
glovaa, ooal and aoma leaser articles,
whtoh want over.
This advenoad tha aanats to tha free
Hat, which was takan op at 2 p. m. and
oomplatad In three hours.
Early la the day tha wool and allk
schedules want over, with an agrasmsnt
that wool would be takan up tomorrow.
After that the tobaooo sobaduls, re-
ciprocity provisions and Internal reve-
nue portlona of th* bill as wall aa many
ieolated paragraphs wars passed over
and remain to be oonalderad.
Th* progress today was io marked,
however, that for tha first time there
waa a feeling that tha and was not far
off. Thera was little debate today, tha
maintoptoof discussion being matches
and fuasa. On tha latter item an
amendment by Pettigrew raduolng tha
rata to 10 par oant oam* within ona
vote of passing, against th* protest of
tba flnano* oommlttaa, th* vote being
a tie, 24 to 24.
While tha free list waa under oon-
aldsratlon Baoon of Oaorgla gave no-
Hoa of an amendment placing ootton
ties on tha free list and MoLaurln of
Booth Carolina gave notloa of another
amendment taking raw ootton from
tba fra* Hat,thus completing the aotlon
heretofore takan of placing a duty of
20 par oant on ootton.
Matohaa oauaad something of a con-
test. Allison moved to disagree to tha
oommlttaa of 20 par oant ad valorem
and to agree to hones rates, with
changes making tha rat* 8 oant* par
groaa boxaa In plao* of 10 oanta aod %
oants per 1000 whan Imported In bulk
In plao* of 1 oant.
Vaatand Gray opposed th* rates, tha
latter stating that tha business was
enormously profitable,
Allison explained that tha ohanga
from ad valorem to apaolfio waa mad*
on th* raoommandatton of treasury
•xparts, and with these rates In part
offset th* advano* on raw material*,
Inoludlog lumbar. AUlton’a proposals
war* agreed to.
Pettigrew moved to add a olauia
fixing tha rata on aafaty fir* at 10 par
oant. Haaald these fuses wsr* used
in mining operations and that tha
artlole was controlled by a trust. Hs
submitted letters and statements,
showing tha extant of tba alleged fas*
and tta division of territory for the
pnrposa, haaald, of plundering th*
oonntry.
Wilson, of Washington, remarked
that th* mining oompany and not tha
miner paid for tha fas*.
Pettigrew anewered that thousands
of miners In th* monntalns war* oom-
paliad to boy their own fosse.
Taller, of Colorado, supported Petti-
grew’s contention, aaylng that a large
amount of mlnlDg, particularly In atl-
var and gold, waa don* by Individual
miners. Hs felt that th* oommlttaa
had not heard from Individual*, bot
only from tha troat, If any avldano*
had bean presented. Taller aald tba
mining lndnstry waa willing to bear its
just share as a mean* of protecting
Amartoan Industry and eqaaltctng tha
differences In labor standards hare and
abroad, but It was not willing to con-
tribute to tho profits of a trust.
Platt, of Oonnoottout, who, with All!
amt, la In oharga of th* bill, aald this
waa • “most remarkable temp test In a
teapot” ho hod aver witnessed. AU
that aeemed naoaasary to gat a doty
lowered waa to present aoma newspa-
per dipping declaring that a trust ex-
isted. Hs did not know whether there
was a trust or not, but ha urged that
a rate on fuses wbloh would oomo
under a general “basket olaasa” of 35
to 40 par oant was a just ona.
Tha vote on Pettigrew’s amendment
waa: Yams, 24; nays, 24, a tta, and th*
vloa-preaidant declared th* amendment
lost. _

Washington. June 21—After the ap
proval of tbs journal the house under
a special rule adopted a bill appropriat-
ing 1100,000 for tha repair of dry dock
No. 3 at New York, whloh recently waa
discovered to b* leaking badly.
Mr. Latimer, Democrat of South
Carolina, asked unanimous oonsant to
have oonalderad a bill declaring tha
atate oapabla of antiraly controlling
tha liquor traffic.
This Mr. W. A. Stone, Republican
of Pennsylvania, was an outgrowth of
th* looal fight in Bouth Carolina in
wbloh tho oonrts had made a decision,
and was not a proper matter for con-
sideration by tba honse. Ha objected
to Its consideration.
Mr. Dtngisy from tha committee on
ways and means, presented a favorable
report on a iolnt resolution providing
that foreign exhibitor* at the Omaha
exposition In 1398 may bring to this
oountry laborers to prepare and have
obargs of ths exhibits with two amend
mants providing that tha treasury shall
fix th* number of laborers to enter
tha oonntry and that they ehoald leave
the United Status wt'htn three months
from tba termination of tha exposition.
On motion of Mr. Dloglaytbe boas*
then at 10:50 adjourned until Thnrs-
day. _

call a speolal session of the legislature.
Then we would oall a convention to
revise the constitution and get all the
rot oat of It. Ws will have oontrol of

Ism In th* astabllsmsnt of theooopsra

I do not know whathsr this question
will ba solvsd paaoeably or otherwise.
I bop* peaceably. But I am on* of
those wao believe In getting ready for
any eolation that may ba neossaary.”
Debs said that in setting up a coop-
erative commonwealth In Washington
ths oolonlsta might bs running against
ths supreme oonrt. He would consult
good lawyers aod learn just what the
rights of the oolonlsta wsr*.
“Ws want to know oar rights,” be
said, “and make them tba rabtla. If
they sand th* military to lnvads oar
rights, then ther# will bs an army of
500,000 patriot* on th* state line to
meet them on that Issue.”
