resolution providing temporarily (until to
day) for the expenditures of the govern

Milliken, of Maine, inquired how many
more of these Joint resolutions would be
brought in.
Randall replied that as many as were
needed would be brought in.
Denham remarked that they would be
brought in as long as the senate delayed
the appropriation bills.
Millllcen said .the bills were delayed in
the senate because they had been delayed 1
in the houBe.
The joint resolution was passed.
The District of Columbia business was
then in order and the remainder of the day
was spent in the discussion of the act in
corporating the street car railway compa
ny of Washington. Every conceivable
style of amendment was offered, most of
them only to be rejected. On every amend
meut the question of no quorum was raised,
necessitating a vote by tellers or a call of
the house.
Pending further action Morrison, from
the committee on rules, reported a reso
lution ordering night sessions for to-day
and Saturday, to-night’s session being for
the consideration of the labor business and
Saturday for the consideration of business

Holman submitted the conference report
oil the legislative appropriation Dill.
Pending action the house, at 5 o’clock,
took a recess until 8 o’clock.
At the evening session the house passed
the following bills reported from the com
mittee on labor:
To prevent the employment of convict
labor and alien labor upon public buildings
and other public works.
Amending the act to prohibit the impor
tation and immigration of foreigners and
aliens under contract or agreement to per
form labor in the United States.
To protect mechanics, laborers and ser
vants in the District of Columbia in their
wages.
A senate bill providing tor the payment
of per diem to government employes for
decoration day and the 4th of July.
Directing the commissioner of labor to
make an investigation in regard to convict
labor in the United States.
The bill extending the provisions" of the
eight-hour law to letter carriers, gave rise
to some opposition, and pending action
the house, at 11 o’clock, adjourned.

Eustis—“Have you any more speoifle in
formation as to danger ‘elsewhere,’ what
ever that may mean, than other members
of the committee have?"
, McMillan—“I have no more speoifle in
formation.”
The debate was for some time continued
in an effort to ascertain whether the com
mittee on commerce had been influenced
to offer this proposition by a knowledge,
fear or suspicion that it might
save the bill from danger
elsewhere. The committee came in for a
good deal of criticism from out and out
supporters of the bill led by Eustis. The
latter in reply to a direct question from
Butler, said he was the “through thick and
thin” friend of the bill in season and out of
season. Eustis accused the committee of
being afraid to confront the enemy, who
ever he may be, and afraid to face the Are.
Miller appealed to the friends of the bill
to rally to the support of the committee.
He ascribed Eustis’ position on the bill
and his desire to swell it to his well-known
hostility to the administration and to his
wish to force a presidential veto. It w is
an open secret, he said, that arrangements
werefbeing made in another body to bury
the bill provided certain things were done,
or provided the amendments were i ncreased
beyond a certain point. There had also
been floating abouV the corridors of. the
capitol, in the cloak rooms, and on the'
floor of the senate, statements made and
repeated day after day, by men who repre
sent the executive. D.v men who stood
close to it. They had not hesitated to say,
mot in a whisppr but in outspoken words.)
that if this Dill exceeded a certrin point,
it would undoubtedly meet an executive
veto.
Edmunds said the object of this debate
was out of order and unseemly; and it was
improper to refer to any possible or im
possible action of the president or of the
house of representatives in relation to the
bill.
The chair (Sherman) said that the point
of order was well taken, but he had ob
served that the senators frequently violated
the rules in an indirect manner by refer
ring to what was done elsewhere. He re
garded this indirect violation of the rules
as a violation of decency and propriety.
Coilger, a member of the committee on
commerce, resented the references to his
committee and characterized them as “an
insidious attack upon the committee.” All
thought the speeches, he said, had run an
attack on the motives, sincerity, honesty
and honor of the committee. The senator
from Kansas had spoken of some “sewer
age system.” “Ah, sir,” said Mr. Conger,
“this kind of attack smells of cloc®. The
senator’s suggestion of a sewerage
system indicates a seeking for
the motives of men ir. some fllthy place,

New York, July 13.—There are indica

Senator Sherman for an alliance which
shall comprehend the nomination of the
senator for president and the selection of
the vice-presidential candidate from the
state of New York by the Arthurites. Im
mediately after the Ohio society banquet
here, at which Senator Sherman was pres
ent, it became known he had formed some
kind of
A NEW YORK ALLIANCE.
The name of Levi P. Morton was promi
nently connected with his name as a vice-
presidential candidate. While Mr. Morton
is said to have declined to lend himself to
anybody’s presidential boom, it is known
that he is perfectly willing to go on the
tail of the ticket with anybody. He is a
good politician and an old stalwart whoBe

Among other things it says: The trick;
sters, soreheads and mountebanks who are
about to assume office in a tremendous
crisis in English history have in common
but one dominating impulse, to grab the
emoluments of power. This is indeed a
grotesque sacrifice. It is as if a rascal im
bued himself the investments of a priest
for the purpose of robbing the altar.
In another paragraph the paper says:
Gladstone’s opponent deliberately con
cocted the Belfast tragedies for political
purposes. Murder, particular or whole-,
sale, will not stop them any more than it
did Ireland’s enemies heretofore. The
Marquis, of Salisbury, Joseph Chamberlain
and Lord Randolph
Churchill are as un
scrupulous as Pitt, Clare and Castlereagh,
but they are punier. The slanders of the

for vice-president. T
declare that New York;must have a place
on tlie ticket, and that the only way to se
cure it is to take a western man for presi
dent and a New York man for vice-presi
dent. Congressman Burleigh made a very
strong plea to those with whom he talked
here to-day in favor of the nomination of
Sherman, Harrison or Allison, with Mr.
Morton for vice-president. He declared as
vehemently as he did in 1884 that Mr.
Blaine cannot and must not. lie nominated.
Mr. Burieigh’s talk is an indication of the
drift of the Arthur element toward the
support of Sherman. It was amusing to
hear some of the expressions drawn out by
Mr. Burleigh’s advocacy of Mr. Sherman.
Dwight Lawrence, who is an old Cornell
man, said to the congressman:
“Now, what is the use of your talking
about getting New York to support John
Sherman for president. In the first place,
your schemes comprehend the delivery of
the vote of this state to Sherman, in return
for which we are to have the vote of Ohio,

It appearing on the count that there was
no quorum present, the roll was called and
forty-six senators' (more than a quorum)
answered to their names.
Allison submitted the conference report
on the legislative appropriation bill, the
committee agreeing upon all points in dis
pute between the two houses, except as to
the four following pointy: Cldrks for sen
ators (not chairman of committees) at £6 a
day for the session; salary of assistant
treasurer at Baltimore (increased by the
senate to ?4,500); appropriation for
three clerks for the civil service
commission, and relating to the compensa
tion of internal revenue agents, surveyors,
etc. The report was accepted, (closing all
matters in dispute except as to those four
points), and the senate still further insisted
on its disagreement with the house on
these points. The senate then resumed

THE GRAPE CREEK TROUBLE.
A I'oinmitti'O of the Striking Miners Publishes n
Card.
Chicago, July 15.—A committee of the
striking miners at the Grape Creek coal
mines near Danville, 111., publishes a card
respecting the situation in which they say:
“There is no prospect of a riot, nor has
there been any attempt at violence or in
timidation of any kind. The miners of this
place are all American citizens, peaceable
and law abiding, and have common sense
enough to stand up for their
rights. The Grape Creek Coal Company is
solely responsible for the present trouble.
We were requested by F. H. McClure, gen
eral manager of the Grape Creek Coal
Company, to send a delegate to the Colum
bus (Ohio) convention which adopted the
Pittsburg rate of 75 cents per ton. He took
a prominent part in the convention nml

stirred up rows in this state that wilrnot

FRIENDLY TO BLAINE.
While the Arthur people are figuring for
the connection just, mentioned, the rank
and file of the 'state are friendly to Mr.
Blaine, and if the judgment of politicians
like Captain Chester S. Cole, DevVitt Clin
ton Wheeler and Mr. Lawrence can be
relied upon, he is the coming man. Cap
tain Cole, who is chairman of the state
committee, told roe to-day that. Mr.

doubtless amount to £70,000. I agree with
tbe receiver, however, that the depositors
will be paid in full, even at the expense of
the stockholders. The bank will never re

The August* Strike.
Augusta, Ga., July 15.—C. H. Phinizy,
president of the Augusta factory, in a let
ter to Mullen, Mienard and Salley, com
mittee of the Knights of Labor, declines to
make fifteen per cent, advance to the
strikers, but agrees to abolish the pass or
line system, and the board of directors de
clare to all whom it nmy concern that
they are anxious to continue business on
any terms which do not involve actual loss
and destruction of property, and cordially
invite the co-operation of all persons
willing to engage in such business.
In reply to the Tetter of President Phin
izy, W. it. Mullen, of the Knights of Labor,
declared that 15 per cent, is not their ulti
has in the state of Pennsylvania. The
captain thinks that if there

York delegation for renomination in 1S88.
Dwight Lawrence thinks that the old ticket
will be renc.i’inated and Clinton Wheeler
says that nothing short of an earthquake
can stop Blaine ■. nomination.
NO CONVENTION NECESSARY.
The republicans ofthis state are showing
considerable weakness over the question
of holding a state convention. There is
only one officer to be nominated

The next question was on an amendment

Evansville, Ind., July 15.—Last Satur
day, Gottlieb lloehner, a farmer residing
near McCutehanville, this county, left
home for Evansville to make some pur
chases and collect some debts. He left
here late that evening, and stopped at a
saloon two miles from the city to get a
drink, and displayed a large roll of bills.
This was the last seen of him alive.
Early Sunday Morning Mrs. lloehner,
upon arising, discovered her husband’s
team standing in the road. Fearing that,
something avos wrong she aroused the
hands and ail unsuccessful search was made
for Hoehner about the farm. The me*
then started for Evansville, but could hear
nothing of his whereabouts. This morn
ing Mr. Lew McCutchau, while on his way
to market, had occasion to
go down a side road in the
direction of McCutehanville, and seeing
a motionless body lying in a clump of
bushes went to it and discovered the body
of Mr. Hoehner lying there. lie was
bleeding from wounds in the head and
breast, and was barely breathing. Mr.
McCutchau, placing him in the wagon,
drove to the Hoehner residence. Physi
cians from McCutehanville were hastily
summoned, and every thing possible done
for the unfortunate man; but he had laid
unattended so long that recovery was im
possible, and be died at noon. The only
words he spoke were: “Hit hard.”
He had no known enemies, and the mur
derous attack was probably committed for
money which he is supposed to have had
od his person when attacked. The author
ities are at work upon the ease, and it is
supposed have a clew to the perpetrators.
Two young “hoodlums” ivere present at
the saloon where Hoehner was last seen,
and took their departure shortly after
him. Both are residents of this city, and
one is said to have spent considerable
money Sunday.
