NITCHELL'S CHINESE BILL.
1T Is ABSOLUTELY IRoN-CLAD AND
POSITIVELY CONCLUSIVE.

A Conflict Between Intelligent and De-
graded LabOr-The Pan-Eleotric Seam
daI-Amendment to the Educational
Bill-Experimentinga at Washington.
WASHINGTON CITY, March During his
speech in the senate Friday on his bill to
abrogate the Chinese immigration clauses
of our treaties with China, Mitchell, of
Oregon, said: This bill, unlike our restric-
tlon acts and proposed acts, is not elastic; it
Is absolutely iron-clad; it leaves nothing to
constructions; it is conclusive. 1t is not
open to the objection of being liable to have
its vitality sapped or its efficiency destroyed
by departmental or judicial decisions. No
delicate questions as to conflict between act
and treaty are left open for construction or
determination by either court or depart
ment. The conflict that is waged on this
subject of the Asiatic occupation of this
country is as irrepressible as the conflict
that resulted i'll the overthrow of human
slavery. 1t is conflict for supremacy on
American soil between Intelligent, enlight-
ened and honest American labor and the
cheap and degraded labor of the lowest
order of the Mongol; a conflict between
morality and vice: conflict between civil
iZation and heatheniSm, Christianity and
paganism; conflict between two opposing
forces, in all essential particulars non-assim-
ilating and repellant when considered in the
relation of one to the other; and the one or
the other of which must, and will ultimately
and necessarily, be driven to the wall Nor
does it require any peculiar prescience to
determine the result Of the contest if the
United States government stands supinely
by and does nothing or, what is but little
more effective for good, simply attacks the
advancing army Of invaders with wooden
swords and paper bullets under pretense of
conforming to treaty stipulations and sus-
tanning diplomatic relations"

WASHINGTON CITY, March L. Upon assem-
bling Wednesday the house under previous
order, went into committee of the whole
Crisp of Georgia, in the chair, for general
debate on the state of the Union
Weaver of Nebraska discussed the
silver question, and predicted that the ef-
forts Of the money oligarchy, assisted by
the executive officers OF the nation, to
double the peoples burdens and crippling
the business of the country by the suspen-
sion of silver Coinge, would prove
unsuccessful now that the atten-
ton of the people was attracted
to the subject He favored un-
limited coinage and asserted that if the
whole yield. of the mines was coined annu-
ally it would be twenty years before the per
be equal to that of France, and this calcu-
lation, he said, had been made without tax
ing into account any increase in the popula;
tion of the country.
Gambler of Georgia submitted an argu-
ment against the suspension of silver coin
age and contended that there was no sound
basis for the prediction made by the gold
bags" that the continued coinage of silver
would have the effect of driving gold out of
the country.
Lanham of Texas spoke in support Of a
bill previously introduced by him to disap-
prove an act of the legislature of New Mex
leo to prevent the introduction Of diseased
cattle into the territory, arguing that it was
unconstitutional in that it interfered with
the interstate commerce.

The Pan-EIectric Scandal

WASHINGTON CITY. March 1.-After Glib
son, of West Virginia, had concluded his
speech on the Pan-Electric investigation
Friday, Reid got the floor and said: Il do
not intend to detract from the solemnity of
the occasion by discussing it prematurely. 1
only wish to tender, in passing, to the Dem
Qcratic party the assurances of the respect
able consideration which we all have for
their situation. Loud laughter, in which
the Democrats ioined] 1t is desirable, un-
der the fierce onslaughts of the gentleman
from West Virginia, to say a few words in
defense of the resolution. think l even
ought to befriend the gentleman from New
York (Hewitt), who is absent, by suggesting
that the gentleman from West Virginia is
mistaken in supposing that the gentleman
from New York is here for the purpose of
building up his own industry. l think he is
here for the purpose of attempting to break
down other peoples industries"
Morrison said: "The gentleman is mis-
taken in supposing that the Democratic
party is in any trouble. We propose to in
vestigate charges against our own people as
we did those against theirs, and l trust if
we find them them guilty of anything unbe-
coming honest officials, we will not be found,
as gentlemen on the other side have been
found, attempting to shield them. Zap
plause on the Democratic side.l

Amendment to the Educational Bill.

WASHINGTON CITY, March l. - Allison
offered in the senate Tuesday an amend
ment to the education bill to the effect that
where separate white and colored schools
exist the money should be paid out for the
support of such white and colored schools
"in the proportion that the illiteracy of the
white and colored persons aforesaid bear to
esck other as shown by the census" ALI
son said the amendment placed the bill
strictly on the basis Of illiteracy. He in.
quired whether Democratic senator's, whose
race had oppressed the colored race for 200
years. would be willing to take from one
third to one-hah the money of the bill: Was
it possible that the white race, with the
advantage of race and color, would not con-
sent that the poverty stricken colored schools
should have as much of this money as their
illiteracy entitled them to- Even with all
the money voted by the bill, there would be
many children who would get no education
at all and since there was to be a scramble
for this money, as well as for the money
raised by taxation in the several states, Mr.
Allison insisted that as to that scramble we
should see to it that the people who are
Iliterate, and whom we propose to aid,
should have their share of this money.
Blair, and Miller of New York, opposed tho
afaenduent as one that would defeat the

6PANIARDS ANxIOUSLY AWAITING AN
IMPORTANT EVENT,

And Hoping They Will Yet Have Male
Heir to the Throne-A Slander ON
Queen misunderstanding II ShoOtist
Famine and Fever In Ireland.
MADRID, March There is a great deal
Of excitement here over the conflicting re-
ports of the condition of Queen Christina
Last week it was ruInored that the queen
regent had had a premature child birth. 1t
is now positively asserted by the regents
adherents that no such mishap has occurred
that she still expects to be accouched next
month, and that there is as good chance as
ever that she will present to Spain post
humous male heir to the throne, which will
do away with many of the complications
surrounding the question of the succession.
These latter statements are strengthened by
the fact that, although eleven days have
elapsed since the regents alleged fausse
couche, no preparations are making for tbs
coronation of Princess Mercedes as queen of
Spain
When King Alfonso died last November,
leaving two daughters and no son, Princess
Mercedes, the eldest daughter, was the heir
apparent to the throne and would have
been crowned Immediately but for the fact
that the kings widow, Queen Christina ex-
pected to become a mother in March If
the posthumous child proves to be a boy, he
would be the heir to the throne. Therefore
it was decided to postpone the coronation of
Mercedes until this fact was decided. But
if Queen Christina has had fausse couche
it is certain that she can not have son in
March, and in the present critical state of
Spanish politics, it is probable that the
little queen would be crowned with all pos
sible speed.
There is a wild rumor in Republican cir
cles to the effect that the queen regent did
have a fausse couche on the 18th inst, but
that this fact is denied in pursuance of what
is called an Austrian conspiracy" to pro-
duce false heir to the throne next month
with the claim that it was born to Queen
Christina and is the son of the late king
This appears to be most absurd SANDER
but its authors point to the great mystery
now surrounding all the occurrences
in the palace, the regents refusal
to see the Spanish physicians
attached to the royal household and her sole
reliance upon DR.. Reedel, a physician whom
she brought from the Austrian court They
say that Queen Christina we'll knows the
Spanish people will not tolerate the long
regency that must elapse before Mercedes,
who is not yet years old, becomes of age
especially as the regency would only be fol
lowed by the reign of a woman and that the
regent seeing that her tenure is so precarious
is inclined to adopt any expedient, however
desperate to strengthen her position.
