PRINCESS FLOUR Best Made. Ask your firocer THE DAILY SENSATION. Squabble Between Attorneys in the Conghlin Case One Hastily Fined. CHICAGO, Feb. 5.

Daniel Coughlin's attorneys attacked Frank Bardecn's testimony In the Cronln trial to-day. Bardeen told, when on the stand for the prosecution, of seeing- Coughlin In Edsewater on the night of May 4. Walter Eaton wns mentioned as the engineer In charie a plant that night. The defense to-day called engineer Eaton to the stand, and he testified to having had several conversations with, Bardeen previous to May 1. The latter had testified that he had never spoken to Eaton.

Eaton sold that ho did not see Bardeen at the plant on the night of May 4, but by cross-examination it was shown that Eaton admitted to Prosecuting Attorney Bottum. In his office "that Bardeen probably was at the? plant that night." Witness was also made to admit on cross-examination that many people came to the electrlc-llg-ht plant on pleasant nights, and that ho took no notice ofJ such visitors. Joseph JIcKenna, who 13 a new witness in the ease, was called by the defense. Ho i an Intimate frlenl of Andrew Foy, and. was said by Mrs.

Foy to have visited at her home frequently during1 the- winter nnd spring of 1S89. He eald he had been, there but once during the time mentioned, and that was to attend a wake. Ho said he herd Mrs. Fov call her husband nn Anarchist, and assert tnat he threw the bomb at the time of the Ilaynvarket rlDt. Police officer Michael O'Connor was next called to the stand.

He told of having been with JIcKenna on the nJirht of May 4, and admitted on cross-examination that ho had been locking up data for his testimony in the murrler of Dr. Cronln. "Who told you that you were suspected," asked attorney Bottum. "I refuse to answer that question," responded the witness. The court demanded an answer and O'Connor said he did not remember.

"That's nil," shouted the State's attorney, dramatically, and then followed an exciting- war of words between the attorneys. After the announcement of recess, Mr. Bottum had replied to a reporter's question In 'a voice that could be heard by the retiring- and mentioned Superintendent of Police Brennan's name. "You ougnt not to say that In the presence cf the Jury. Mr.

Bottum," said attorney Donohue. "Say what?" demanded Mr. Bottum. "Say that Superintendent Brennan assigned O'Connor on that case." "I did not say it," replied Mr. Bottum, heatedly.

"You did," shouted Mr. Donohue. "and the yottn rrentleman there will tear me out." He shook a ringer threateningly at the prosecutor, who was flushed with anppr. The noise attracted the attention of Judge Tuthill, who had pone into his chamber, and he emerged as Mr. Bottum was shoutlnsr back a.

loud retort. -Gentlemen, end this he exclaimed. "What does it mean?" "It menns." Answered Mr. liottum, hotly, "that Mr. Donohue has called two gentlemen and myself liars." "I fine you JT.0, Mr.

Donohue," said the Cu.rt"-. excStedly. After an explanation Judge Tuthill said that his action in censuring- Mr. Donohue was hasty, and that there was no need for action on hU part. Thilne was accordingly withdrawn.

Officer O'Connor was recalled by the defense during the afternoon ses-don and asked who it was who had informed him that he wa-s a Cronln suspect. He salj that Michael Kelly, foreman of the factory at which he was employed, had told him to keep out of the way of the officers. He was then excused, and Michael J. Kenned v. another of the men mentioned in Mrs.

Foy's testimony, was called. Kennedy is now meat Inspector for the cltv. but wa in ivw a commission merchant. His testimony was similar to that of O'Connor. He insisted mac no nan not visited the Fov bouse in the earlv part of 1SS3, thus directly contradicting Mrs.

Foy. RETALIATION liY POl'ULISTS. License of a Bhj Insurance Company to Do Business in Kansas Revoked. TOPEKA, Feb. Insurance Commissioner Snider has revoked the license of the Home Insurance Company of New- York to do business in the State.

The company's Kansas business last year was 51fi.WO.G0O. It understood that like action will be taken concerning- thirty other New-York Insurance companies doing' business In Kansas. Mr. Snider refused to stats his reasons, but it Is understood he take today's action because the company will not pay the reciprocal tax.

FURY OF A MOB Desperate Effort to Lynch a Negro Eavisher at Lebanon, Frank Hall Several Times Almo3t at Death's Portal, but Each Jime Rescued by Brave Officers.

MOB OF OYER 700 FARMERS Led by a Fnrions Woman Whose Heart Burned with Vengeance, And Who Thrice Placed the Rope Around the Colored Man's Neck and Urged the Crowd to Hang: Hira. SAVED WITH DIFFICULTY Hnstled Into Court and Sentenced to Twenty-One Years, Afterwards Taken to the Hallway Sta tion Under a Strong: Guard and Back to Indianapolis. SCENES AND INCIDENTS How the Mob Was Held at Bay by the Son of Judge Neal. The Xefrro Identified by Ills Victim, Mrs. Akers, and Her Little- Sou Loose Administration of Justice.

Staff Correspondence of the Journal. LEBANON, Feb. 5. A mob of seven hundred or more Boone county farmers struggled and battled fiercely In the courthouse yard hcra thl3 afternoon for possession of Frank Hall, the negTO vrho assaulted Mrs. Mary Akers.

four miles east of this place, Saturday night. Several times was a rope? around Hall's ru-ck, and os many times was he rescued by the sprcial deputy Sheriffs and attaches of tho Circuit Court. Mrs. Hattie B. Taylor, a woman about forty years old, put the rope around Hall's neck three times, screaming like a maniac and clawing- past men to lay fcr hands on the negro and help strangle him with the rope.

A Qozen yards away, all this while, was Mrs. Akers, the victim of the assault. It was she who brought the rope to the, mob, Mrs. Taylor, from that moment, assuming the part of tho Fury. Barely threa months ago Mrs.

Taylor's daughter was assaulted In a somewhat similar manner by "Doctor" Cottrn, a traveling quack, who Is now a fugitive from Justice. "I know what this Is," Mrs. Taylor Fhrieked. "I know what my daughter suffered at tha hands of such a brute. Let me tla the n6ose around the scoundrel's neck." Tho woman's eyes glared like thos2 of one insane.

Half the farmers thought Mr3. Taylor was Hall's victim and they ailed her In clawing to the front to th? negro. It was exactly 2 o'clock when Sheriff Trautman, Town Marshal Owen, Frank Dalley, cashier of the Lebanon National Bank, George Norwood and a few others of the townfolk appeared at the north entrance of tho county jail, which Is just across the street from the courthouse square. The mob was in front of the jail prepared to Intercept the officers, who were ready to take the prisoner before Judge Stephen Neal for arraignment. Diagonally across from the jail Is the law office of Patrick II.

Dutch, the prosecuting attorney for the circuit. Fitting at tho windows of the office were Mrs. Akrs and several of the neighborhood women. Mrs. Akers Is a calm, pleasant-faced little woman, little Inclined to talk.

She did not seem to be as excited or indignant as her friends. She saw the sheriff's posse forming a cordon around her assailant at the jail door. Some one thrust his head in tho door of th3 law office and shouted: "Mary, will you lake the rope down and put It around his heck?" Her friends urged her to do as requested. "I will take the rope down to him," she said very quietly, and in less than two minutes she was carrying the rope toward the jail. The mob of farmers pressed close to her, and, with womanly reserve, she shrunk back.

A tall, gaunt farmer with red beard seized the rope, at the same time shouting: "Come on, boys!" LED BY A FURIOUS WOMAN. Then Mrs. Taylor, this Hoosier Vengeance, stepped abreast the leaders of the mob, and the men, infused with a courage that had been lacking all morning, surged to the entrance of the jail. The sheriff saw the wave coming and deemed it best to make a sudden dash with hi3 piisoncr for tho courthouse, thinking that the countrymen would not fo far forget themselves as to drag a man from a hall of justice to deal out death to him without the sanction of the law. Several large farm wagons lined along the courthouse square blocked the movement of the sheriff and gave the mob an opportunity to quickly surround the little posse.

Hall was quivering and cowering behind Ms protectors. At first several men sought to grasp the negro by the coat collar and wrench him out of the wedge made by the officers. From hundreds of throats came shouts and yells "Hang him." "Kill him," and the like. The Vengeance threw herself toward the officers, clutching savagely at the prisoner. The marshal tried to push her back.

"Are ye all cowards?" she shrieked. "Get him for me! I'll fix the rope!" The man with the rope had come to the front. The man with the red beard showed a new burst of daring and threw his arms around the waist of the sheriff. Four stalwart men sprang to his aid, and. in an Instant, the sheriff was whirling away toward the outskirts of the crowd, vainly attempting to flourish his revolver.

As the sunshine glinted from the polished barrel of the weapon a few instinctively dodged, but most of the maddened men paid no attention. "Frank, this is ncre of your business. Don't use your firearms," squeaked one agod man, who. despite his shrunken flesh and white beard, held to the arm of the sheriff with the grip of a vise. "I know," replied the sheriff, panting for breath, "but, Loys, you know I'm sworn to do my duty, and you oughtn't to Interfere with me." Mrs.

Taylor waa becoming more demonstrative as the remainder of the sheriff's posse continued their resistance. Frank Dalley was dealt a blow that lessened the numerical strength of the guard by one, Marshal Odin flourished bis baton, but a long arm shot over his shoulder and the baton was tossed into tho air. The man with the red beard saw a favorable oppor- tuniy to hit tho crouching negro, and so forcible was the blow that the blood flowed Hall's cheek. By this time the Vengeance had secured the noose end of the rope. She threw it over the negro's head, but the noose was too big, and Marshal Odin got his head lr eluded therein.

The woman, without sense or reason at this moment, would have jerked the rope taut bad not several cooler-headed men interfered. In slipping the nooee off Odin's head, tho negro had a chance to disengage himself from its coil3, a chance he quickly availed himself of. George Norwood and others of the posse again formed about the prisoner. LIKE A FOOTBALL BATTLE. The movements of the mob resembled the maneuvers of a football team on a large scale, pressing backward and forward, to the right and the left, the sheriff's forces making some headway on account of the action of the mob.

In the course of five minutes the posse had got within the courthouse yard proper. There the crowd surged toward a huge cottonwood tree, the branches of which suggested a gallows. But the branches did not hang low enough to make the short rope available. This tree is the one which Judge Neal claims to have planted many years ago. From out his court room window Judge Neal viewed the rioting and dreaded the unholy use to which bis tree was about to be put.

The rope was again thrown over Hall's head, aid this time It was drawn taut around his neck, but so dense was the crowd that he could not be thrown to the ground and dragged. A man in an oilskin jacket called attention In a loud voice to a smaller tree, a maple, a dozen yards away. To this tree the people pressed. The blood had dried on the negro's face, but apart from the blood, the several chokings had given his skin the purple hue of a grape. Prosecuting Attorney Dutch was In the court room when the first rush was made for the prisoner.

He did not go down stairs, for he thought the posse would bo of sufficient strength to bring the prisoner safely to the court, but, when the men came so close to the courthouse walls, he rushed down stairs and dashed into tho thickest of tho fray. Some one caught the tail of hl3 frock coat and ripped the garment asunder. This did not daunt him In the least, and In a short time he was at the side of the struggling, prisoner. He sought to pacify the men, advising them to let the law have Its course. "What chance havo we for justice?" cried one, "when that old judge puts a man in jail a day for hog stealing.

Wo can't convict anybody there." The man In the oilskin coat had climbed to the lower limbs of the maple tree, and was yelltngr for an end of tho rope to throw over a limb. An attempt was made to toss the end to hlra, but the Burging of the crowd caused the rope to miss its mark. A son of Judge Neal forced his bulky form to where Mr. Dutch ws striving to keep the peace. He was so tall and broad that he towered above the crowd, and so powerful that he aided materially In dragging the haIf-conscIou3 neyrv the narrow doorway that leads to tho courthouse stairway.

The noose had again been slipped from Hall's neck. By this time, however, the farmers had grown more enraged, and their passion was running at high tide; so bold were they that it was only a matter of a moment to again put tho noose around the black nock. Five feet toward the door had been gained by the sheriffs force. Mrs. Taylor appeared at this Juncture and was ranting wildly and fighting for a place near the man sho wanted lynched.

A few of the merchants of Lebanon, who had become interested in trying to restore peace, took it on themselves to drag her away, for it was readily seen that she was adding much to the vengeful spirit of the mob. HELD AT BAY BY ONE MAN. Now the courthouse entrance was reached. With almost a superhuman effort the negro was forced into the narrow passageway by his protectors, and Immediately the special deputies closed In behind him, Neal bringing up the rear and blocking the passageway with his huge body. There stood Neal with his feet braced against the walls, holding in check the entire mob.

"Boys." the big man thundered, "keep back, and I'll see that the old man dos the square thing. I know that he'll do it." Apparently no one was wUIlng to engage in a personal encounter with the giant. Whose father was presiding as judge upstairs. The entrance to the courthouse is on tho north side of the building, and. the farmers, serng no way clear to the court room, bolted to an.

entrance on the west side of the building, where they forced their way readily enough to the room. Th3 scene in the court room was dramatic. The room was almost instantly jammed with excited men. Including the one who had the Two strong men guarded the gates of the bar rail and kept the crowd from rushing to the bench, where sat Judge Stephen Neal. Mrs.

Taylor had slipped by the guards and was standing In a menacing attitude, within arm reach of tho prisoner, who shivered and shook In his terrible fright. Judge Neal, who Is over seventy years old, was very much agitated. His voice trembled as he spoke. Prosecuting Attorney Dutch, en deshabille, and with hU suspsnders very much in evidence through the rents In his coat, addressed tho court in a low tone, stating that the prisoner was ready for arraignment and desired to plead guilty to the charge of criminal assault on the person of Mrs. Akers.

Deputy Clerk James Berry-hill brought out tho affidavit which, had been by 21 r. Dutch and read it. There were loud threats from the men In the rear of the room; a horde clamoring for the negro's life, the Vengeance noddlnj approvingly from her stand near the prisoner to the farmers back of the bar rail. There was danger of the prisoner being wrested from the law as he was being given trial according to the statutes. The sheriff, George Norwood, Marshal Odin and others lined themselves up against the rail to prevent any onslaught.

After the affidavit was read the court asked the prisoner if he pleaded guilty to the charga. "Yes, sir," mumbled the negro. "Then," continued the court, almost before tho negro had a chance to enter his plea, "I sentence you to twenty-one years In prison." The sheriff repeated the words of the court to the mob. In order to further pacify the men. Then the judge stepped down and addressed the people.

He advised them to keep the peace, stating that Boone county was too great a county to be dishonored by mob violence, that it was the duty of the court to enforce the law without fear or favor, and that the laws would bo enforced. The Vengeance groaned. The verdict was not to her liking, nor to that of many in the crowd, for that matter. Into the Judge's private office Hall was taken, with a half dozen special deputies, and 'the door was locked. The court room was cleared In part, half the mob gathering in the yard below to hurl defiance tip-ward at the windows of the room in Uilch Hall wi's held.

It was now 3 o'clock. The Bev. Mr. Nolton. of the Presby- tCoutiuucd uu Tlilrd l'ngc.) AN INDIAMAfi SPEAKS Mr.

Johnson Fires Hot Words at the Hawaiian Conspirators, And Paints a Vivid Picture of the Efforts of Minister Willis to Restore Ex-Queen Liliuokalani. PLOT FOR A NEW COMIC OPERA Morse Called to Order for Alluding to Cleveland's Cuckoos. Tho President, Grcshara, Blount and "Willis Scored by Boutelle Remarks of General Black and Others. WASHINGTON. Feb.

Hawaiian debate again occupied the attention of the House to-day, a night session being held to permit speeches by those members who dosired to talk, but who otherwise would not have had opportunity to do so on account of the limited time allowed. Th3 debate is attracting much less attention In the House than was anticipated. This is perhaps partly due to the abandonment of the policy of restoration of the administration and party to the fact that the long tariff debate has surfeited the House. The principal speeches to-day 'were made by Messrs. Johnson of Indiana, Boutelle, Patterson and Black of Illinois.

Mr. Everett delivered the Invocation at the opening of the session of the House this morning. Mr. McGann tried to obtain unanimous consent for consideration of a resolution ho offered to investigate the action of Judge Jenkins in the case of the Northern Pacfllc railroad, whose employes he had enjoined from striking, but objection was made, Tho Hawaiian debate was resumed by Mr. Morse, who had five minutes.

Before he had proceeded for a minute, however, Mr. Outh-waite had called him to order for unparliamentary language. "To which language do you refer?" asked Mr. Morse. "To the Insulting, Impudent and unparliamentary language just used," answered Mr.

Outhwaite. Mr. Morse, according to the rule, took his seat, and the words excepted to were read at the Clerk's desk as follows: "And yet, strange to tell, at the command of their master, the great Grover Cleveland, his cuckoos in the House and Senate, stanch Southern Democrats, the loudest shouters for a white man's government, disregard all their ancient traditions about the white man's supremacy and the white man's government." The Speaker ruled that the language was unparliamentary. Before Mr. Morse could proceed, however, his time expired.

Mil. JOHNSON'S SPEECH. Mr. Johnson, of Indiana, then took the floor and-inado a strong speech, arraigning the course of the present administration in attempting to restore the deposed Queen. He drew a vivid picture of tho efforts of Mr.

Willis, and evolved out of it all the plot of tho new comic opera to bo called Liliuokalani. He said the resolutions before the House approved the principle announced by tho President in relation to Hawaiian affairs, but carefully refrained from approving the acts he had committed there, and were. In effect, condemnatory of him. The resolutions, he said, were an exquisite piece ofsatlre, equal to anything Junius Swift had ever written, and, for stinging sarcasm, were not surpassed by any document extant, unless possibly by President Dole's reply to the insolent demand of the American minister for tho capitulation of the provisional government. He did not know whether the person who drafted these resolutions was a free silver- lte, waiting to get even with the President for his lnterferance in the legislation of special sessions, or an applicant for patronage, who felt that he had not received his share of tho loaves and fishes and who was thirsting for revenge, but whoever he was, he was a born diplomate.

a person who knew how to use the English language and who had made the most of his opportunity. He added that Mr. Willis had been practicing diplomacy with a trip hammer, and if he received his passports from the provisional government the author of these resolutions ought by all means to be made his successor. Mr. Johnson arraigned the administration for its acts In Hawaii and declared that if his efforts to restore the ravage Queen had been successful there would have been witnessed for the first time the successful Impeachment of an American Executive.

He denied that Minister Stevens aided in the deposition of. the Queen, ami asserted that thi3 question, like the question of annexation, was not involved in the real issue, which was the conduct of Mr. Cleveland in his relations with the Sandwich Islands; thai when the present administration came into power It was confronted with an accomplished fact a provisional government lirmiy amply able to maintain itself, mvl recognized by all leading nations, ncluding our own, a government whence we 1 received a representative anl t- Jim we had sent one; and that the wjis not as to the circumstances of its birth, the rightfulness ind wrongful vss of its origin, but as to its existence and ct-prciiy to maintain its authority over Fu.jjects. In concluding his remarks Jihmon charged that the executive a ad n.ti mpced to restore the Queen by menace ani force, to conceal his purpose from the American people, in order to prevent th-ir interposition, and that he -hid tint Blount to secure ex parte eviden to give color to justification of this policy. Gresham's letter to the President, the executive message at the convening of the present session of Congress, the instructions to Willis, and the character of the tatter's demand for the surrender of the provisional government were cited to show that force was designed.

Tho recent protests that menace was never contemplated by Mr. Cleveland came only after his plans had begun to fall and tho public indignation had risen. PATTERSON AND BOUTELLE. Mr. Patterson followed.

The sugar. interests, he argued, were behind the annexation movement. If the island could have been annexed under the bounty clause cf the McKinley law the sugar planters there would have received from the United States treasury fifty million. The desire of the sugar planters to put their hands into the pockets of the American people lay at the bottom of the revolution of said tho speaker, impressively. The great haste manifested to secure annexation, he said, was because those In the conspiracy knew that Grover Cleveland, when inaugurated, would never give hl3 consent to the territorial extension of the United States to those Islands, 2,000 miles beyond our western shore.

Messrs. Wheeler and Oates continued the debate. The former delivered a glowing eulogy of President Cleveland. The latter argued in behalf of the adoption of the McCreary resolution from a legal standpoint, Mr. Boutelle, who followed Mr.

Oates, after reviewing the contents of his resolution reprobating the policy of the administration, added "whatever may be the tardy expression of this House, I claim a favorable verdict on my indictment from the American people. Continuing, he followed events to the attempted promulgation by the ex-Queen of a new Constitution Jan. 11, lsl. That act denominated the ilitical suicide of the Hawaiian monarchy. "The honor of the American, nirne," said Mr.

Boutelle, "is being dragged in the dust by (Jrover Cleveland, Walter Q. (Tre-ham. James H. Blouat and Minister 1 I have no words to express xny contempt for tho policy of treachery, duplicity and false pretence. You, on the Other side, cannot condone this outrage, you cannot make this heroic." (Applause.) Proceeding, he characterized Mr.

Greshant as a "disappointed and apostate Secretary of state, who, in conjunction with the President, sought not only to up-root and overturn an American government, but to degrade the American navy by putting it under the control of a Georgia politician In order to get nom- one who would haul down the American Mag. (Applause .) hen that order was given, whether by the Secretary of the Navy or the President, the Constitution was violated, and he whJ penned it rendered himself liable to impeachment." As a partisan he saiJ he might well glory and gloat over the rrts-ent policv of the Democratic party, which, he added, amll BpuMican applause, had been spewed out by the American peop'e. He Concluded with a glowing eulogy of the American flag, reciting a few verses a sort of apostrophe-to the' stars and stnpes, written by a native of Hawaii. He was liberally applauded when he took his seat. GENERAL BLACK'S SPEECH.

Mr. Black, of Illinois, the ex-Commls-sloner of Pensions, In reply, said that the eloquent words of Mr. Boutelle, fo far as they appealed to American honor anl American patriotism, awakened the liveliest commendation hi his heart, but, after all, this was now an old ssary. It was r.o longer a grave question. The government of Hawaii was, now finally estalished.

There was no attempt to invade It. All that Republicans hoped for by this discussion of ancient history was political advantage, but the Democratic side of the House did not propose that they shou.d have 1L He proceeded to analyze the several resolutions pending, pointing out what he considered their defects or inconsistencies. He argued for a policy of foie'gn non In terve n't io n. "We are after Stevens." Mr. Black.

"and we think we will get him. (Laughter and applause.) By the peaceful conquest of extirpation but four-fifths of 1 per e-ent. of all the Islands In the Hawaii islam! now remain to the native population. Never ha-s there been such a peaceful conquest in the history of the world. American intelligence and American energy are paramount there.

Let them work out their own salvation. Let us declare for a policy of noninterference by the United Stares rnd against tolerating foreign intervention by other governments, and the suprmicy of brain nnd civilization in those islands Is assured." Mr. Black's brilliant peroration was loudly applauded. Mr. Van Voorhls.

a member of the foreign affairs committee, declared unequivocally for annexation. Mr. Grittin closed the debate for the afternoon with an argument in support of the McCreary resolution. At 5:13 the House took a recess until 8 p. m.

Only four members were present when Mr. Hall, of Minnesota, began to speak in support of the admlnistartion. A half tlozen oOiers came in subsequently, and there was a considerable attendance In the rrallerles. Mr. Hall charged that the revolution was the result of a conspiracy made possible by the covert aid of Mr.

Stevens and tho presence of the United States troops. He indorsed the policy of the administration In Its attempt to right the wrong done the Queen through the connivance of the United Sttfs minister. As the facts grow clearer, said he, public rentlment will place In every honest hand a whip with which to scourge J. L. Stevens through the land.

Mr. Post contended that the attempt of the administration to restore a debauched and discarded queen could not be condoned or wiped out by the passage of a partisan resolution. Mr. Stillings also took the position that Mr. Stevens was a party to the revolution and should be censured by the House.

Mr. Lacey and Mr. Stockdale were the last speikers. At 10:30 p. m.

the House adjourned. Proposed Amendments. WASHINGTON, Feb. 5. It has developed that quite a number of amendments to the pending Hawaiian resolution in the House are awaiting introduction.

One cf these Is by Representative Black, of Illinois, and another by Representative Cock-rell, of Teas. These, with the Holman amendment, will make three propositions differing from the McCreary resolution, which seek to determine the policy of the House on the Hawaiian question. None of the three propositions have yet 'been submitted to the House, and there is a prospect that they may be crowded out from even presentation by the rigid application of the rule under which the Hawaiian debate proceeds. Mr. Holman said to-dny that he was ready to offer his modified resolution, but there was doubt as to his getting the recognition of the Chair for this purpose.

Speaker Crisp has already ruled that the McCreary resolution is open to amendments and a substitute, but Messrs. Holman, mack and Cockrell foresee that fpeeches may continue up to the very moment of 3:30 o'clock to-morrow, when the rule compels the vote to be taken without delay for amendments, substitutes or anything els. It Is understood that the Black and Cockrell amendments are similar to that of Mr. Holman in declaring against American interference in lehalf of the monarchy. The resolution which Representative Cockrell desires to offer as a substitute to the McCreary resolution is as follows: "Resolved, That the annexation of the Hawaiian islands as a State of this Union is not deemed to be wise; tlit the provisional government of Hawaii, l.av.'ng been fully established and recognized iy the United States.

Is entitled to munjige and conduct its own affairs ns iMle- pondent nationality; that the rrnce of any foreign power with the irternal policy of the existing government iiiose islands will le considered as -dn unfriendly act by the United States. And le it further "Resolved, That, while we disclaim the right or desire to disturb or change the political state or original form of government of any nation, we reaffirm and assort the faith of our patriotic forefathers that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among thos are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and, we extend mod cordial greetings and hail with Joyful welcome all people. In every quarter of the globe, who have overthrown tyranny and despotic jwwer in order to establish justice. Insure domestic tranquility, provide for their common defense and secure the of liberty to themselves and their iosterity." LIKE DOX QUIXOTE. Cnpt.

Richard Cavendish, of Indiana, is in town for a few days on business connected with settling up the bureau of awards of the world's fair. Captain Cavendish is evidently not much of an admirer of Prt silent Cleveland's administration, for he severely criticises the chief executive's acts in many directions.

Decision to Ue Reached by the Finance Committee To-Day A New Yorker's Currency Scheme. WASHIXCAOX. Feb. federal elections repeal bill occupied the entire session of the Senate to-day. Senator Chandler concluded his speech, which has extended through the past two or three weeks, and was followed by Senator Palmer, who argued that the law having entirely failed of Its purpose, and being generally obnoxious, should be repealed.

An animated controversy of the franchise qualifications cf the State constitutions of Mississippi and Massachusetts took place between Senators Frye and Hoar on one side and Senators Gray and Hate on the other, and is likely to be renewed to-morrow, when the final vote is to be taken on the bilL Dr. MUburn in hU prayer, this mornln3 made touching allusion to the life, Bcrvicci and death of Georpe V. Chllds, the Philadelphia philanthropist. "While the tolling bell telht of the passing of a noble eoul from earth," said he, "we bless Thee for the country and national life la which and through which a boy born in poverty and obscurity, by industry, temperance and frugality lifted himself to affluence and power and shed beneficence upon every hand, yielding happiness by the grace, and kindliness of his nature, and enriching all rrten's lives with whom he came In contact. We render Thee devout gratitude that there In a land producing under the blesslnc of Thy fatherly love through Jesus Christ such types of character.

We pray that tho lessons of this man's life may be read with kindly and reverent hearts, by the young men of tho whole Nation, and so may the man's death be richer in its effects than even the beneficence and sweetness of his life." Resolutions from the Massachusetts legislature protesting against the cotton schedule of the Wilson bill were laid before the Senate and referred. The bill to repeal the federal election laws was then taken up, and Senator Chandler continued his speech. He said, in part: "Freedom is a common heritage. Controversies over silver and bonds are Incidental; vitf lance to protect the lives of and the freedom, purity and hon- esty of the suffrage Is vital and must bo fl m. 1 Vft I a .1 A.

"thru the laws which are nuw soupht io be repealed have secured to tha colored people the rights which he claims for them?" PEHTINKNT QUESTIONS. A lively tilt then took place letween the two Senators, after which Senator Chandler, continuing his argument, reviewed the nnte-war history of the country, and then, alluding to the attempts made by the Democratlo party in recent years to secure the repeal oX the federal election laws, said: "Where the Democratic party to stop if to-morroxr it repeals the election law which was adopted to carry Into effect the fifteenth amendment? Will they not repeal the fifteenth amendment also? If they take away th stiff raise from the black man. will not they also, little by little, in this action, come to reduce the black man substantially to a condition of slavery?" Continuing. Senator Chandler expressed regret at the defections on the Republican side on this question, referring especially to Senator Stewart.

Who, he jv.id, althourh the author of the fifteenth amendment, and the leader in th movement to pass the statute of May IS, 1S70. the rnost valuable portions of which are to be repealed by the pending bill, now gives thu repeal bill hi? supiort. Senator Palmer followed Senator Chandler, and opened with history of the birth of the Itepubllean Party, and. traclnjs-lta course to the wir winch had resulted In th liberation and enfranchisement of the ne Kroi'S. said it was now contended by the Republicans that the negroes should vote with them and for their policies "bcau! they liberated them." L'iKn the other side of the chamber it was contended that tha colored people in the Suth had not their proper representation in the governmental affairs.

"Within a few days jxast." sail Mr. Palmer, "we have been enjraired in a discussion of the Hawaiian question. We found that the total population there numbered about ninety thousand. The white American population is less than two thousand, and yet these two white nv-n own more than 74 per cent, of the entire property of the kingdom. The natives own tut eighty hundredths of 1 per nt.

of the prop- erty of the lfdand. Is-rs than 1) per cent, of the population of that island has overthrown the government and established another, and are about to proclaim, or have proclaimed, a constitution with property nnd yet a few days aro I heard one of the leaders of the Republican party in this chamber declare thit men who have overthrown the native government and native supre-nary were Russell, and Sidneys, and Washington'. This is the view of the party that now claim to be the champion and the preserver of the rights of the colored race." TAMMANY" PRAUDS. Senator Frye reviewed the history of the presidential election of lr and the Tammany frauds in New York city. "I believe," said he, "that Tammany is just aa determined to nvail Itself of every violation of law.

to accomplish Its purpose now as In 1S03 In that year. In less than twenty days they naturalized over forty thousand foreigners. They naturalized in Judge liarnard's court 2.522 In one day. There were ten standing witnesses to I.S'X) applicants for naturalization. 'Patrick Qulnrt was a standing witness to 2.100 applicants, and he was afterwards sent to the penitentiary for these offenses.

In these naturalizations gave their names as 'Cornelius Vanderbilt and 'Chauncy De-pew men well known to the Judges yet thero was no rebuke. In that election Tammany had iran of rej-eaters, rd some of them voted as hich as twenty-five times. New York was carried by thU iort of business for Horatio Seymour, but the United States was arou-ed by the conduct. It was huch act? as this that led to the enactment of th? federal election law. Loes the Senator fnm Illinois think it was the duty of the United States to tnk cognizance of the.e violation and crimes the ballot In the Km pi re State, or dees he think it was an attempt to crubii freedom?" "My answer." paid Senator Palmer.

"Is that the instance put by no means Justifies the law. The fact that there was crime in New York furnishes reason for subjecting any other congressional district in th United Stares to the act oi placlnir over them supervisors and masters. Nothing of that kind Justine the i-lacSng of the vhol country under Fupcrvbdon." "I nm disappointed with the Sena tor." said Senator Frye. I do not think he Is any better than other l.Vmocrats.
