The Blair Educational Hi.

WAsHINGToN, April 23.-The
House Committee on Labor to-day
heard Representative Reagan in opposi-
ton to the Blair educational bill. His
principal objection was on constitu'
tional grounds.
After Mr.. Reagan's argument four OF
five members of the committee made sci
speeches, defining their own views on
the subject. The speeches caused q
prolonged and at times very animated
discussion.
Representative Daniel, Of Virginia,
moved that the committee report as a
substitute bill to appropriate the pro-
ceeds arising from the sale Of public
lands during the next fiscal year.
After a session Of two hours the CON-
mittee adjourned without action.
The Committee on Education did not
obtain a quorum until a few minutes
before the meeting Of the House, and
then adjourned until the third Friday
in May, and consequently action on the
Blair bill by that committee is deferred
until that date.

Mnss-Neeiing of German Socialist.

nnss-Nceting of Herman Socialists
tBy telegraph TO the DispatchI
NEW YORK, April ga Socialist
mass meeting of Germans was held here
tonight to denounce capitalists and
police who were endeayoring to crush
Herr Most and his wOrkingmen." A
large number of women were present.
Police officers in uniform and detec-
tiyes not in uniform were scattered
about the hall, and squad of fifty po-
lice were within easy hail in case
Of trouble. Herr Most made a
fiery address. After denouncing
the capitalists and police, referring to
the present crisis he said the reyolu-
ton in Paris in 1871 resulted because
the people were disarmed, and the
same was likely to happen here. They
did not intend to bring riot to the fore,
but they merely proposed to hasten
revolution, and that was the reason
they should arm themselves. lie con-
cluded by saying that they must work
and live, or fight and die. and if those
present would leave their names and
addresses with the secretary he would
SEQ that they were furnished with
arms.
Other speeches of like innammatory
nature were made, and one of the
speakers declared that it was a shame
that the police had to be admitted to
the hall. This caused cries Of " Put
them OUT" The officers began to feel
for their clubs and to glance about TO
detect the criers, when there was
stampede for the door. The officers
restored quiet, told the people to sit
down, to talk away, and when thsy got
tired to go home quietly. The meeting
was quickly adjourned.
