IXiSS FEOrOSED FOE THE EEArTOETlOXMENT
Another step has been taken toward mak
ing the tanfl bill a law. It passed the Sen
ate last evening by a party vote, and con
ferees were appointed. A bitter struggle
between the two branches is expected upon
the metal, sugar and other sections. So
many members of the House are away cam
paigning that it is impossible to reenre a
quorum.
EFECIAl. TELECBAM TO THE DISPATCH.
"Washington, September 10. The mere
formality of making closing speeches and
taking the final vote on the tariff bill to
day was attended by no incident outside of
the monotonous, with the exception of the
speech of Senator Hiscock, which was
characterized by a partisan virnlence and
lack of dignity throughont, which made it
sound more like an echo from some ot the
recent speeches of certain members of the
House than a speech in the solemn atmos
phere of he Senate.
It afforded an exceedingly disagreeable
featnre to uost of the Senators of the finale
of a protracted discussion which has been
conducted throughout with remarkable
courtesy on both sides, considering the
warm party feeling that was at times ex
hibited. Br a Strict Party Vote.
The final vote was a strict party aflair, as
was to have been expected, the Senators
Iiaving fought out their sectional and p?r
tonal differences of opinion while considering
the bill by paragraphs. It is said that the
majority in the House will instruct their
conferees to adhere firmly to the conditions
of the House bill in most of the items of the
metal, glass, pottery and sugar schedules,
and compel the Senate to concede their
figures.
The Senators who favor the Senate figures
believe, however, shat the House is likely to
give in rather than make a long fight, as it
isof great importance that members of the
House should get home to look alter their
fences, while Senators do not care if they
are kept here until the beginning of the
short session.
A Determined Flcbt Probable.
But a great outside pressure is being
brought to bear on the Republican leaders
in the House to induce them to force their
figures on the Senate and a determined fight
is the probability. Messrs. Aldricb, Sher
man, Allison, Hiscock, McPheron, Vance
and Carlisle have been appointed conferees
on the part ot the Senate.
The closing debate was opened by Senator
Hoar. Referring to the reciprocity prop
osition, he said that he had voted for it yes
terday with some hesitation, and should not
have done so if he had thought that the
scheme contained in the amendment was all
that was likely to come out of entering on
that policy.
There was some great constitntional diffi
culties in the way which had been ably
stated by Mr. Evarts. He, however, re
garded the amendment rather as a declara
tion of purpose than as a definition of legis
lative policy, and it was in that view that
he had given it his support.
Bitter Arraignment of tbe Democrat!,
Mr. Hiscock commenced his speech with
a bitter arraignment of Democratic Sena
tors, who, he said, hadjburpassed their pred
ecessors and themselves in charlatanism,
deinacogism, misrepresentation and insin
cere professions of devotion to the industrial
interests of the country, Every effort, Mr.
Hiscock said, to provide free homes and se
cure free speech for the laboring classes had
been resisted by the Democratic party np to
18G1 by every method which statesmanship
could devise and ruffianism execute, and
the last great effort had culminated in civil
war.
And that parly had since then opposed all
measures that looked to the elevation and
to the assurance of eqnal rights ot the labor
ing classes of the old slave States. And yet
the representatives of tbe Democratic party,
with an unparalleled andacity, proclaimed
that the motive which actuated them was
elevation of American labor and the pros
perity of American industries and ot the
common country. Coming directly to the
tariff bill, Mr. Hiscock asserted that it had
not been constructed with a view to injure
commerce, hut rather to create and foster
commerce.
Lorn of a million In Louisiana.
Then a Democratic Senator took the floor.
Mr Gibson called attention to some points
in the sugar schedule, under which he said
the whole sugar crop of Louisiana would be
forced upon the market at a sacrifice of not
less than a million or a million and a half
of dollars which would be added to the
profits of the Sugar Trust. He wished to
have the Senate conferees made acquainted
with the fact
After remarks by Tnrpie, Vest, Vance and
Jone, of Nevada, the vote was taken. It

THE INQUIRY LIMITED.
DECISION OF THE COMMITTEE IN THE
RAUM CASE.
A Pension Office Chief Testifies That Work
is Belne Unrrlcdly nnd Improperly Per
formed Some Cases Retarded by the
Completed Files Order.
"Washington, September 10. In the
Raum investigation to-day Chairman Mor
rill proceeded to pass upon the question
raised as to the relevancy of the testimony
offered yesterday by Mr. Cooper, relating to
the character of the refrigerator company's
stock, and ruled it out Mr. Flick, a ma
jority member, said that he took the same
view, regarding the testimony as irrelevant
at this time and without relation to the
charges contained in the resolution of in
vestigation. Mr. Lewis, the minority mem
ber, entered his protest against the narrow
limitation, holding that the character of the
stock was one of the counts of the indict
ment, but by a party vote the Chairman's
ruling was sustained.
Assistant Chief Bryant, of the Pension
Office, testified that the completed cases
order had expedited the settlement of some
claims and retarded others. The completed
cases received preference over other cases,
which were delaved to that extent He
knew of no case of preference being shown
to any particular attorney. He had found
that less than 20 per cent of tbe cases certi
fied to be complete were really complete.
To Commissioner Baum witness said that
while there had been a larger output of
claims under the new order than before,
there had been greater haste in the prepara
tion of cases and much rivalry between
clerks. He did not say that the work was
improperly done, but had called attention
to the fact that some examiners were dis
posing of claims in less time than they could
be properly considered.
At this point Mr. Cooper thought it was
proper that the committee should pass upon
his resolution referred to it to extend the
scope of the investigation. No decision
was made, and the committee adjourned.
ALL BUSINESS IB BLOCKED
By the Democrats to FreTent the Seating

rFBOM A STAFF COBEESFONDEST.l
"Washington, September 10. It has
been very evident for several days that be
fore the House can transact any business all
members absent without leave will have to
be called back, and it is probable that some
such motion as that proposed by Mr. Han
gen this afternoon, to revoke all leaves,
except on account of illness, will have to be
adopted. It was impossible to even count a
quorum either yesterday or to-day, though
Speaker Burrows pretended to have done so.
"When that was disputed by Mr, O'Ferrall
he was unable to show the names of those
who had been counted to make the quornm.
On the largest vote the aggreijate fell 25
short of a quorum. The Democrats, under
the lead at present of O'Ferrall, who has
charge of Democratic interests in the Lang-ston-Venable
contest, are determined to keep
up their fiiibustcringas long as possible, and
force a recall of Republicans who are at
home stumping for their re-election.
The presence of Democrats is not neces
sary, and consequently they can go home
and attend to their campaign, while those
who remain can force the return of Repub
licans. To obviate this condition of affairs,
the Republicans may be compelled to send
for absent member's, or, what would be
equally effective, to adopt a resolution de
priving absentees (except on account of
sickness) of their pay, which can be done
under the law. It is expected, however,
that the return of Speaker Beed, who will
be at his desk to-morrow, will have an
electric effect on members and bring them in
by the score. If not, it is safe to say that
prompt measures will be taken to insure
a certain quorum.
HEADY POS A REAPPORTIONMENT.
The Republican Member In Favor of In

JFKOM A ETAFP COWIESPOXDEXT.1
"Washington, September 10. "While
the Dunnell reapportionment bill is con
ceded to be quite fair to all sections in its
equitable distribution of the increase of
members, it will meet with a good deal of
opposition solely on acconnt of that increase.
The House is so much of a bear garden now,
for most of the time, that those members
who are sticklers for order and dignity are
muchopposedtoany increase. The332 mem
bers which form the present number, fill the
chamber, and those of the back seats can
scarcely hear or be heard. An increase of
22 would crowd every corner. Judging
from expressions from members and others
to-night there is at thi3 time a majority in
favor ot retaining the number in the Con
gress. A reapportionment with that in
view would be based upon a proportion of
one member to every 193,000 inhabitants,
which would leave Pennsylvania at its
present representation, as the Dunnell bill
would leave it, as the fractional number
left after dividing the approximate number
of inhabitants of the State, as given by the
Census Office, would entitle the State to
one more member, which would make 28.

1WECUL TELECBAM TO THE DISFATCH.l
- Coaxton, Pa., September 10. Miss
Stella Manning, aged lb, eloped on Sunday
with her second cousin, George Burns, aged
20. They were married the same day In
"Warren. The girl is tho youngest daughter
of TJri Manning, a well-known lumber
dealer. The young man is the son of
Benjamin Burns, a coal merchant, whose
wife is a cousin of the girl's mother. There
had been no objection to the marriage of the
pair, but they apparently preferred to follow
a long-established family precedent and
elope. George Manning (afterward Colonel
Manning) was one of the first settlers in
this part of the State. He came from Steu
ben county, N. Y., in 1800, a young man
with a bride, who was tbe daughter of Gen
eral Wheeler, of Steuben. Tho "Wheelers
were an aristocratic familv, and young
Manning worked for the General. Miss
"Wheeler fell in love with her father's em
ploye, and eloped with him.
Manning grew rich in the lumber business
and became a Colonel in the war of 1812.
In 1819 his daughter Ella eloped with Silas
Cnrtin, who was a sawyer in one of her
father's mills, and whose snit for his
daughter's hand Colonel Manning had
frowned on most emphatically. Three
years later another daughter eloped and
married a youne doctor, whose practice was
barely sulhcient to pay tor his own living.
Ho died only a year ago, however, worth a
quarter of a million dollars. He was Dr.
Ambrose Sullivan, the eminent specialist.
His money was lelt to two daughters, both
of whom had been compelled to elope or
give np the men they had chosen to wed in
opposition to their father's commands.
Colonel Manning's son, Jason, at the age of
20, fell in love with the 17-year-old daughter
of a backwoodsman named Grazely. The
Colonel thought he would break np that
attachment by sending his son to Phila
delphia to school. The son went, but two
days later it was learned that the back
woodsman's pretty daughter had gone with
him. Later on it was learned that the
runaways had stopped at Harrisburg, where
they were married.
Colonel Manning had the youthful couple
brought back, nnd when he died Jason
succeeded to the management of his father's
large business enterprises. There were
born to him and his backwoods wife a son
and a daughter. In 1868 the son Uri was 33
years old and wanted to marry Stella Mc
Crea, who was five years his junior. His
father and Malcolm McCrea, the girl's
father, were at odds over business matters,
and both he and McCrea were violently op
posed to any union of the families. Young
TJrl Manning having parental precedent,
as his father had had before him, simply
settled all dispute in the matter by running
away with Miss McCrea and marrying her.
Tbe next year Uri's sister Jennie, being
then 20, having also accepted as her lover a
youth not to the liking of either her father
or mother, eloped with him and married
him. His name was George McCormick,
and he is now a well-known and prosperous
lawyer of Northern Pennsylvania, As yet
there have been no elopements in this
branch of old Colonel Manning's familv,
but it was TJri Manning's daughter Stella
who eloped on Sunday with her second
cousin, George Burns. There are several
collateral branches of the Manning family
in which elopements have also occurred
from time to time during the past few years.
WHOLESALE KIDNAPING PLANNED.
Kansas City Men Who Expected to DIako
the Business Profitable.
Kansas City, September 10. An
audacious plan which contemplated the
wholesale kidnaping of children, for
ransom, was revealed to-day when the grand
jury found a true bill for that offense
against Henry C. "Wilson, who keeps a feed
and livery stable at No. 2037 East Eigh
teenth street The plan was to kidnap the
children of wealthy parents, conduct them
to a secret place in some distant State and
keep them there until their ransom should
be paid. "Wilson took for an accomplice
the coachman of Mrs. Jeff Dunlap, a
wealthy widow, living on McGee street
Mrs. Dnnlap's 3-vear-old boy was to have
been tbe first. Then the 4-year-old son of
James H. Arnold was to have been kid
naped. Alter these two had been ransomed
others were to have been kidnaped.
The plan was all laid to kidnap the Dun
lap child when the coachman weakened and
confessed his part in the contemplated crime
to Mrs. Dunlap, who informed the police.
When "Wilson went to the vicinity of Mrs.
Dnnlap's residence last Saturday to carry
out the first part of his plan an officer
placed him under arrest. To-day the grand
jury indicted him.

Hale's seat in the upper branch of Congress.
rSrECIAt, TELEORAX TO TBI DISPATCS.I
Augusta, Me., September 10. Con
gressman Boutelle, the doughty warrior of
the Fourth Maine district, has taken upon
himself the duty of moralizing on the re
sults of the campaign just over. Mr.
Boutelle, as editor of the Bangor Whig,
writes as the leading editorial of that pa
per this morning under the head, "The
Lessons of the Victory:"
We are glad to note in the President's con
gratulatory telegram that tbe official head of
the party recognizes that the Speaker of the
House of Representatives has a Fepnblican
constituency behind him who are entitled to
respect, and it is not too much to hope that the
courtesy duo to tho rcpatation and character
of tho distinguished Congressman from the
First Maine district in regard to public ap
pointments at his home, will not be longer
withheld at tho demand or desire of anybody.
It is a matter of
PUBLIC NOTORIETY
that a Democratic Collector of Customs in tho
city of Portland has been already held over
several months beyond his full term, because
the Senators from this State have insisted upon
being allowed to select his Republican suc
cessor, with entire disregard and even con
tempt for tho wishes or judgment of the mem
ber of Congress, who now holds tho second
office under our Government, and who has
just received so remarkable a manifestation of
the confidence of his people.
Then referring to Seed's unprecedented
majority the editorial adds:
For any persons residing outside tbe liralt3
of Reed's district to demand that an appoint
ment hostile to Speaker Reed shall be made in
his own city by a Republican administration is
of tho very cssense of an arrogant political
bosslsm that: will not bo tolerated by its people
when their attention is called to it. The at
tempt of any Bet of men to dominate the poll
tics of this State by farming out patronage and
organizing treacherous wartare upon all who
may even fall under suspicion of standing in
their way will never succeed In the present en
lightened stage of public affairs. The Repub
licans of Maine cannot be held in leading
strings by any self-appointed rulers, and tbey
will indignantly resent unseemly interferenco
with tbe exercise of their political rights,
whether it bo the attempt, however unsuccess
ful, to organize
THE ENTIRE MACHINERY
of the Federal census in political hostility to
the Republican Congressman of one district or
to undermine auotber by packing a Custom
House with his enemies, the fair minded Re
publicans of Maine will have none ot It If
county convention! cannot, be held without
having their members subjected to catechism
and threats concerning matters not Involved
in tbe pending elections, and if Legislative can
didates are to be bushwhacked and defeated
because tbey refuse to pledge themselves
years in advance to somebody's political for
tunes, the Intelligent rank and file . the Re
publican party will have something to say
about it that will not be misunderstood. AVe
feel that plain speaking is tho very best service
we can renaer.
Chairman Manley, of the Bepnblican
State Committee, was seen regarding the
matter, but he wonld say nothing for publi
cation. Other party leaders seem to take
warning from Boutelle's rnshing to print
and are very caqtious about committing
themselves. It has Ions been thourht that
Boutelle's Senatorial aspirations found in
Senator Hale an obstacle. In his editorial
it is noticed he strikes a blow at the wealthy
Senator from Ellsworth in the paragraph re
lating to Federal census, and here the jeal
ousy regarding the appointments crops out.
All in all, the editorial fulmination strikes
right and left unsparingly and according to
a concensus of Bepublicans in this city, un
justly. AVTAITINO DEVELOPMENTS.
Developments are watched with the great
est eagerness. Though the leaders keep
close-mouthed itis no secret that they think
the Fourth district Congressman has decid
edly "slopped." No leading Bepnblican
papers in the State take any notice of the
editorial in evening editions. Democrats
are jubilant. Said one of the most prom
inent in tbe State: "You now see that our
party's talk about the widening breach be
tween Blaine and Beed is all true. Bontelle
could not get help from Blaine in his scheme
to warm Hale's seat in the Senate, hence tne
trouble between those two, who before this
had been the firmest friends. Boutelle im
mediately goes over to Beed, and any man
who has read Boutelle's paper or his
speeches, knew that the fire-eating Congress
man and the Czar of the House had formed
an alliance. The Fourth district has usually
gone with the third, and these, together
with help from the Second, have for years
dominated State politics. The First district
fought Burleigh, and later made an attempt
to remove the State House to Portland.
They always have been beaten, but tbe great
victory Beed has just won leads him and his
friend' Boutelle to overestimate their
strength, and Bontelle throws down the
gauntlet. It is now war to the knife. Can
Boutelle force his district to the support of
the First (Seed's) in an attempt to control
State politics? If not, then the fight he has
begun will end in bis defeat,"

protest against tha same.
There were three contesting delegations,
and a Committee on Credentials was ap

Committee on Credentials had not reported,
but it is understood that all the Tillman del

recommended to be seated by the committee.
The -probable ticket will be E. E. Tillman,

Tindall, Clarendon, Secretary of State;
B,t B. Stokes, Controller; Gen

been prominent in the Tillman movement.
The galleries are packed with enthusiastic
anti-Tillman men and women, but their

rErECIAL TELEOltAM TO TUB DI8PATOFI.I
Somerset, September 10. The Bepnb
lican Congressional conference for tbe
Twentieth district, composed of Somerset,
Bedford, Cambria and Blair counties, has
been definitely called to meet at Ebensburg,
Cambria county, on the 16th inst The
present Congressman, Hon. Edward Scull,
who is serving his second term, desires to
go back, and is a candidate for renomina
tion. Mr. Scull has Somerset and Cambria
county conferees instructed for him, giving
him 6 of the 12 conferees. He is in tbe
fight to stay, and occupies a decidedly ad
vantageous position. A protracted strug
gle, however, is looked for. J. D. Hicks,
Esq., has tbe conferees of Blair, and
"Uncle" John Cessna those of Bedford.
Hicks is ambitious, and will fight to tbe
end.
Cessna is also anxions for the honor, an he
looks on it as his last chance for political
preferment. He is an old man, but has the
reputation of being an exceedingly sly and
crafty politician. He is a foeman worthy
of any man's steel, and may give Mr. Scull
some trouble. The betting, however, is two
to one on Scull.
The Democratic conference has not yet
been called. Thomas H. Grevy, Esq., u
brilliant young lawyer of Altoona, is the
only candidate announced so far. He, like
Scull, has secured the conferees of two coun
ties Cambria and Blair. The nomination
will probably be conceded to Mr. Grevy.

The dock strikers at Southampton con

operations to the water, and gunboats have
been ordered to the scene. A Catholic prel
ate is endeavoring to effect a compromise,
but the men are firm in the demand for the
recognition of their nnion.
BY DOXU'S CABLE COUP ANT.
Southampton, September 10. The ex
citement here, resulting from the striking of
the dock laborers, does not show any sign of
abatement. The residence of the Mayor,
Councilor James Bishop, J. P., was sur
rounded this morning by a dense mob. The
Mayor himself was at the dockhouse, and
the Mayoress, who was virtually besieged
and in a state of nervous excitement, was
obliced to telephone for assistance. Sev
eral soldiers were dispatched to the spot,
and eventually succeeded in driving the
crowd away.
Bnt in view of this manifestation, further
military aid has been telegraphed for, A
new and exciting phase has also occurred,
for the unionists have gone out in boats in
order to meet vessels coming into
the harbor, and endeavor to get the men
to join the strikers.
THE NAVY ALSO NEEDED.
The masters consider the situation so
grave that the Admiralty has been asked to
send assistance, and It is expected that in
the morning the guardship Invincible, of
Southampton, will send out SO men on the
water as a patrol to prevent incoming or out
going vessels being interfered with. Ad
miral Sir John E. Commerell has arrived
at the dockhouse and will at once take
charge of the water arrangements to keep
vessels from being molested.
Two gunboats have arrived and are on the
alert for attempts to stop steamers. Two
hundred additional soldiers have been
drafted into tbe town from Gasport. Tbe
strikers paraded the streets of the town this
afternoon, six abreast, and formed a proces
sion half a mile long, and no attempt was
made by the police to prevent the march.
Hot only were the Mayor's business
premises in East street attacked last night,
but his private residence in Grosvenor
square was also made an object of hostile
demonstration by the mob, which pelted it
with stones and broke several windows. Tbe
premises of Mr. Bearis, a well-known coal
merchant, were also attacked and very con
siderably damaged, and at the Kortham works
a wagon load of iron was maliciously over
turned. The mail trains, however, passed
safely into the docks at midnight.
TOEFEECT A COMPROMISE.
ft
Canon Scannell, a Boman Catholio priest,
presented to-day to the masters, on behalf
of the men, a document which stated that
the men were willing to accept 5 pence an
hour for work in the day and 6 pence an
hour for the night, and 23 shillings a week
for permanent hands. If these terms are
recognized, the men undertake that no
further demand shall be made for two years.
The masters have asked whether, should
they accept these terms, they will be bound
not to employ non-unionists, and Canon
Scannell has promised to give a reply to
morrow. Several meetings have been held
duting the course of the day, and at all of
them the men have been unanimous jn stat
ing that their sole demand is the recognition
of tbe nnion. Colonel "White has just
marched 200 men of the Yorkshire Begiment
into the dock to await further orders.

to make her home in this city
permanently, she was taken under

tbe proprietor of the Midland Grand Hotel
and bis wife, and by tbem was introduced
into the swim of society here.
Among others whom the yonng lady met
was Mr. George Thrushfield, a young
lawyer, with offices in the Temple. The
feeling between these two yonng people
soon ripened into an engagement, and it was'
announced that the marriage would take
place jnst four weeks ago. However, at
the last moment the yonng lady changed
her mind, and placed herself under the pro
tection of Dr. "Whistler and his wife. No
reason is given, except that she finally de

Fortunately tbe royal traveler escaped with

cessfully accomplished tbe feat that caused
Bishop's tragic death.
Chicago, September 10. P. Alexander
Johnstone, the mind-reader whose peculiar
powers have of late mystified and astonished
people in Chicago, performed a feat to-day
which totally eclipsed all similar records, at
least in this city.

Tf ITH BANDAGED EYES.
A committee, consisting of a number of
well-known newspaper men and Dr. J.
G. Butler, drove in a hack from
the Auditorium Hotel to the Grand Pacific
Hotel by 3, difficult ronte, and, going to the
hotel register, selected a name. Leaving
one committeeman Mr. Charles Lederer
in charge of the register, they returned to
the Auditorium, where Johnstone had re
maided in custody of one of tbe committee,
so that there could be no possible apparent
chance of collusion.
They bandasred Johnstone's eyes securely.
The sequel was astonishing. Johnstone
instantly rushed down to the carriage and
droye blindfolded to the Grand Pacific,
avoiding cable cars and thousands of ve
hicles on the way, rushed to the register,
turned the leaves rapidly, found the name
and repeated it, gave number of page and
date of month.
THROWN INTO A FIT.
The Grand Pacific Hotel and adjacent
streets were so packed with people that all
traffic was suspended. Johnstone, on hi3
way heme from the hotel, was taken with a
severe chill which threw him into a catalep
tic fit.. Physicians at first pronounced him
dead, but after working over him for two
hours life was again perceptible. To-night
the mind reader is resting comfortably, bnt
is exceedingly weak.
