What the Solons are Doing
Down There at Washington.
The Resumption Act. -;


Washington, May AT the expira-
tion of the morning hour, the Senate
took up the bill to repeal the resump-
tion act, and Ferry, in charge of the
bill, read lengthy argument in favor
thereof.
Ferry explained the amendments of
the Finance committee to the bill re-
pealing the resumption act. The equiv
olence of gold and greenbacks was
hastened by the passage of the silver
bill, and should the bill reported by the
Finance committee pass, it would give
the country 1890, 600; it would restore
commercial confidence, and make this
people bondholders. He did not antic-
ipate any scarcity, and believed that
gold and paper would be at par by July
1st. He said that New York city did
not possess all the wisdom of financial
matters. Voorhees, read lengthy ar
gument in favor of repeating the re-
sumption act. He recited the woes in
flicted by the act, and referred to the
gold room as mob of gamblers, and
said the government could not redeem
$50, 200, 900 with gold, on q weeks no.
tice from to-day. He favored the
amendment compelling the Secretary
of the Treasury to accept. Immediately,
United States notes for import duties.

The Blair Business.


Washington, May 2.-During last
nights session of the House Represent
ative Lockwood advocated the passage
of the Kimmel bill, to investigate the
late Presidential election, based upon
the Blair resolution. He could not
subscribe to the policy of some of the
Democrats that it were better to let the
matter stand as it was, and said that if
Congress failed to investigate it, it
would become a party to the fraud.
This is the first speech delivered on the
subject.
Blair's friends in the House are en-
gagged in preparing plan to bring the
Presidential question before the House
and private conferences have been ac-
lively carried on between these mem
bers and Blair. Further developments
and additional documents are promised
soon. The Senate Judiciary committee
took the Blair memorial and discussed
it informally. The committee is unani-
mously in favor of making an adverse
report to the Senate. Even the Demo-
cratic members opposed further agita-
tion of the question and are in favor of
indefinitely postponing it.

FRIGHTFUL EXPLOSION.
A Large Number of Lives Lost.
Eight FIGURING Mills at Minneapolis,
Mimi, Destroyed.

Minneapolis, May AT z O'Clock
this evening the city was shaken as If
by an earthquake, by terrific explo-
sion, which was promptly traced to the
groups of Touring mills, in what is
known as the platform" just above
st. Anthony's Falls, where the entire
Touring district of the city Is concen-
trated. The explosion came from the
great Washburn mill, from which a
column of flame was seen to shoot up
several hundred feet, followed by a
crash which crushed the immense struc-
ture like an egg shell. Secondary ex-
plosions instantly destroyed the Thomp-
son, Hoyt and Humboldt mills, and the
flames Immediately burst out commu-
nicating to the Galaxy mills; those of
Petit, Robinson & Co., Capill, Ankery
u Co., l.. Day & Sons, Day & Rollins,

The English Strike.

London, May "A telegram from
Blackburn says the lockout contempla-
ted by the masters, will embrace the
main artery seventy miles long from
INVERSION to Colne with branches
far and wide. The strike is mostly
ended at Church and Accrington, but
elsewhere the spirit is becoming more
uncompromising. Masters declare
that they have gained to the extent of
ten per cent by clearing off their sur
plus stocks at better prices than could
have been obtained if the mills had
been working. From two to three
thousand weaver's met at Darwin We'd
nesday and reaffirmed they would only
accept reduced wages if coupled with
reduced time and would not even CON-
municate with masters at present.
The operative cotton spinners at
Blackburn have adjourned the question
of again seeing the Masters for week.
All the operatives, although complain
ing of hunger, seem to be perfectly
firm. They regard the intended lock
out as godsend, because it will bring
on crisis quickly.

which remains in common. Mr.. Flood
having management of the deceased's

in forco for the present and the busi-

death has been hourly expected for sew

was bachelor, and has a sister, niece
and nephew in this state and sister
