tlie subject of the recent toduatrial
troubles in tilfctt o.ty.
In the continued absence of the vice
president the chair was Ailed by Mr.
Harris, who submitted a communication
from the state department with a report
of the proceedings of the French leg
islature on the presentation of resolu
tions of the American senate end house,
on the occasion of the assassination of
President. Carnot. They were ordered
to be published in the Congressional
Record.
Mr. Daniel, rising to a personal ex
planation, quoted from a report of Mr.
Gorman’s speech La. two of the Rich
mond papers, the Dispatch and Times,
a paragraph to the effect that- the •rep
resentatives from New York, New Jer
sey, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia
were so opposed, at the outset, to the
tariff bill that they would not support
it. He had been assured by the senator
from Maryland that he had not used
that language and that the report was
erroneous. He (Daniel) had simply to
say that from the outset of the great
struggle, he bad felt profoundly con
vinced that no greater calamity could
bifall the country, in an econqmic sense
and under the present conditions, than
the failure of the Democratic party to
enact Into law a reasonable tariff bill,
In all his meetings, discussions and sug
gestions, he had always stated, as ne
did now. that he named no condition to
command his vote: that whether the bill
suited him or not. It commanded nls
support His Judgment was, that (here
was no subject a body like the senate
could be called upon to legislate which
so much demanded the spirit of concil
iation and compromise as a tariff bill,
and it was still his opinion that any
man "whosoever he be or in whatever
department" who laid down an arbitra
ry statement that this Item br that item
must not be compromised, did not occu
py as broad a position as patriotism de
manded. He regarded the delay In the
passage of the bill as a great mlsfqrtune
to the country and to all Its people. The
•nullest might criticise, but only the
wise could achieve results, and, in his
Judgment, wisdom as to so vast a sub
ject would be found ever In a spirit of
compromise and conciliattbn.
Mr. Hunton. the other. Democratic ren
tier from Virginia, said that parts of
tne report of Mr. Gorman’s speech did
I ipJusdcs to himself and his colleagues,
he^use there was no senator who had
nude more sacrifices in order to obtain
•n early passage of the tariff bill. He
confessed that he was earnestly In favor
cf thf revenue duty of 40 cents ton on
coal and iron ore. but the lay had never
come, and never would come, when he
was not willing to make sacrifices to re
gard to those duties. As to sugar, he
thought that the proposed rate «f 40
per cent, ad valorem was also s fair
menue tariff, and these duties afforded
•t the same time incidental protection
J® sugar, he said that he was rrt>t In
I fivor of protecting trusts, but was, on
i the contrary, violently opposed to ih

| *aoUsm enough in. the Deiaocrast of
both houses to give and take. They
would thus get a bill, which, if not eat-
isfactory to himself or to other sena
tors. would be so much better than the
McKinley act that they would take It
and tuke It gladly. This was not a time
for Dertiodruts to stand for their own
opinions und to reject the tipinlMi:-* "1'
brother Democrats. They were here for
the . purpose of passing a tariff bill,
which could only he passed (and never
had been passed by any congress) ex
cept as a compromise measure. He
trusted that there were -no Democrats
within the sound of his voice and no
Democrats in either house of congress
who were not willing to make compro
mises in order to get a tariff bill, which
every one of them must know to be a
great improvement on the McKinley
ait, and which would relieve the people
of the United States of a great burden
of taxation.
The senate, at 2:30, proceeded to the
consideration of executive business, and
at 3:20 adjourned until tomorfbw.

LOUISIANA SENATORS' THREAT
A Heated Discussion Over the Pres* trill,
and Probably a Duel.
Paris, July 25.—Tho seconds selected re.
sportively by Deputy Denolx and Jean
Drault of the Socialist journal Da l.ibre
Parole, have agreed that there Is no
mound for a duet between the two gen-
thenen.
The debate upon the antl-Anarchlst blU

fered by the Socialist deputies was voted
down. Fin-illy, M. Jauras, union KepuDii-
can, denounced the continuous and ays
temntlc rejection of amendments. He vio
lently assailed the majority, which he
declared was composed or Inciters to
anarchy. Ministers, senators and depu
ties. he charged, had tratncued m legis
lation! received bribes and taken part
th scandalous election schemes. He mi
nutely dissected the politic tlnanclal his
tory of the French parliament, which he
Mid were among the social and moral
Inliuences that were driving France to
Anarchy. Tho chief examples which the
upper classes had offered tho people were
those of corruption. The premier haa
deemed Anarchy as a scornful negation
of all authority and umvc.v.-il suftrnge.
What, he asked, were the engineers und
abetters of the Panama camp frauds, tlie
story of which Is told In thu ruins of iho
enterprises and bones of men who were
left In Panama, the victims of that mur
derous speculation wnlen had been to-
vored by a majority of parliament. An
archy. he said, had taken root In ihiso
outrages and flourished through socuii
and political rottenness. Repression of
free thought and free speech would never
cure the evil. A purer state of society
and freedom of utturance were the best
remedies. Since the death of Uamneiia,
Laures said, the Republicans had burn
abandoning his nttltule and had become
passive (instruments in tho hand, ot great
financiers, like the Rothschilds arnj others.

Washington, July 25.—If the action of
today's Democratic caucuo Is obeyed, to
morrow will wltneas an end to the de
bate on the conference report of tho
tariff bill and that measure will go back
the conference without Instructions.
After a debate running over three hours
yesterday npd upward of that time to
day. Mr. Jafvlo’ resolution, that .the bill
be sent back without Instructions, wts
agreed to by unanimous-conaeat, al
though at no. time did he give assurance
to the caucijs that he would not press
his morion to strike out the differential
duty on refined sugar.
The caucus met promptly nt 3 o’clock
and the qrstlspeech was that Mr. Gor
don, who counselled unity of action, and
said ho hoped that the results of tho
meelln-g would be that all propositions
looking to Instructions to be withdrawn
and the bill be sent back with almply
an insistence of tho senate upon its
amendments.
Several other sDeechea were made in
thfis strain by Messrs. Gray, Jarvis,
Lindsay and Walsh.
Tho first 'step in this direction necessi
tated -the ascertainment of wliat Mr .Vi
las Intended to do in regard tb hia mo
rion to strike out tho differential duty
placed on refined sugar. In response
to a direct question put'to him, Mr. Vi
las said he was In favor of striking out
this differential, because ho beMeved by
so doing much of the opposition that
was manifested ugainst the bill would
bo removed und the wuy bo pavctl for
the adjustment ot the differences be
tween the two houses. WRh this duty,
whleh ho said was tho chief bone of
contention, out of tho way there could
bo nothing to -Interfere with the speeuy
settlement of all tho troubles und tlio
early passage of -the -bill und the. ap
proval of tho president. For that rea
son, Mr. Vilas suid. It wuo Ida Intention
to press tho motion uud cause it to pre
vail if possible. - .. ..
Messrs. Blanchard and Caffery lAtth
spoke on the nuRflr schedule and advo
cated a “Hat" tally of 45 por cent, on
all sugars and tho payment of a bounty
for this year, which, -they asserted with
some teeling, hull been promised by.the
finance committee aud not been given
them. Both of -tho Loulotuim senator*
declared teat If this change to 45 per
cent, was not made the Isoulsianu poo:
pie would Insist that the full measure of
protection promised them In tho pend
ing bill should he granted or they would
vote against the bill. They said they
would insist -that they be given the 40
per cent, on raw sugar, tho 1-8 of a cent
differential on refined, which benetltied
their people as much as It did the to-
liner*, and that the bounty for 181)4
should bo paid the growers of sugar In
this country and tho trenty with Hawaii
abrogated. Unless this was done they
served notice in the caucus that they
would vote against the bill. It matters
little to them what instruction*. If any.
were given to tho conferees; what they
were concerned about was the final
agreement. If It did not Include thceo
It could not receive tho sanction of tlio
Louisiana aonatoia.
Mr. Vilas epoke In reply to 'tola, nnd
again urged ah alt too differential bo
stricken ou*.
This called Mr. Smith of Now Jersey
to the floor and ho -made a wpceeh in
tones that even tho marble wal* could
not keep 'from pcnottutlng ouUMe. 1
He Warned Mr. VIIaB that lie was
trifling with a weighty subject when
ho -talked of changing *ho bill, wMdh
has 'been 'too result of much hard work
In the senate und had only passed by
a slim majority of one vote. Mr. Bmirii
said 'Chat u number of senators iwho

way he desired to vote, hut >f .to tnut gut
that tho only way toe bid could, be passed
ttus to leave tms duty ulono he would
vote w it'n his colleagues. Mr. Berry said,
however, lie knew If Mr. Vilas voted
for tho proposition It would carry, and
Uo would voto to strike It out. utner-
wlao, he would cast aside his own polit
ical chances and voto so as to pass mo

Mr. Brlco stated that Ills mams come
next to that of Mr. Berry, and that It
ho voted to strike out tho uitterenosii
he, too, would vote the same way, tor
ho believed In free sugar, botn raw and
refined. Mr. Brlco reminded Mr. \ dus ol
ine trouble tho llnance Commltteo mid
In gottlng a bill that would command
the support of tho necessary lorty-toreo
votes, and Bald tout os a member of
tho steering committee he hod at the
outset analysed the vote In tho senate
and found that a tall could only be passed
by carefully considering tho concessions

sented tho manufacturing and Industrial

terrogatories between Mr. Vilas and other
•enatore. tho bent ot nil being to get toe
Wisconsin ocna-tor to agree to withdraw
his motion, which was looked upon os
putting tlio wholo bill m jeopardy. Ir
one ot these crossfires, Mr. sinitn re
called to Mr. Vilas o speech ho formerly
made In the caucuo, tn which he pleaded
for unity und luirniony. nnd insisted that
toe Democrats get together on Some sort
bRl so that the party could keep 1>*
pledges. Mr. Bmltlt is said to have re
minded Mr. Vllna that ho was one ot
tho moot peretstent senators tn asking
senator* to plodgo themselves to stand t>y
the bill that was agreed upon, so that
might safely pass tho senate. •
Mr. Vilas admitted making this speech,
but said ho did not consider that those
pledges bound tho eonntoni after too tall
got out of too aonalo and Into the cou-
fcrence.
Thts reply Irritated Mr. Smith, who re
torted that that sort of “mugwump logio
might be effectual tn some places, -but
It would not do In a caucus whero men
Pledged themselves to stand by it meas
ure and seo It through. Men wno en
tered tout caucus, he Insisted, were as
much bound to eland by the tall In con
ference ae in too eenate. and town ho roll-
crated his threat that If that sett 01 nn
argument was to prevail, too hilt was
dead then and thoro, Mid wouM never
get back Into congress. “Tho men aho

Sndto, “but who finally yielded under

S say again that any attempt to make

duty “had been placed on m\v sugar,
and -If -thait was right It was, he said,
no more than right that iu differential!
duty should be placed on refined sugar,
an industry that gave employment to
thousands of men in pie slates whero
refining of sugar was oonducted. Any
attempt to change this soh&lulo or any
other schedule, striking nt the Kallent
point* of'the 4>W, nil of w r hlch had been
discussed in e previous cuucuss, would,
Mr. fimlth said, be hailed with satis*
faction by those who had bolted tho
income tax because they were very sick
of their bxrgain and would Jump tit
inyrMng that would release them from
it.
Mr. Smfth In the further course
his re murks 'told the oiucus and Mr
Vila*, to whom -his remark* appeared
to be mainly addrea»ed, »tWat If any ar
rangement -had been made through the
ild of the vote* of the senator* from

was to be changed, that there were
enough votes at command without
;ho:!e of -rhe sugar senators to indefi

challenged Mr. Virab to make this ef

he would find that the MU would b<

Mr. Hm'Vth also saW that H wu* u very

Mr. Derry of Arkansan said tb*t
