WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE tariff bill
was taken up, the pending question being
on Vests amendment to reduce the duty
on tin plate.
Mitchell addressed the senate in de.
tense of the high protective system as the
policy to which the Republican party
stands committed. he discussed in de-
tail and generally in terms of commenda-
ton the bill as reported by the finance
committee, qualifying his commentator,
however, on the sugar question and ex-
pressing the opinion that the provisions
of the house bill on that point were pre-
ferable to those recommended by the
finance committee.
Plumb gave notice of an amendment
which he would offer to strike out the
provision imposing a duty or tin plate
and add q provision to pay to the manu-
facturers of tin plate made in the United
States q bounty of one cent per pound.
He expressed great doubt as to the effect
of the proposition of the finance com
mittee. He doubted very much
that it would permanently introduce
into this country manufacturers of tin
plates in quantities sufficient for domestic
consumption. He had no doubt that In
time. if the manufacture of tin plates
were entered upon in this country, one of
the results would be to reduce the price,
but be did not find in the present situa-
ton any ground for a reasonable pre-.
sumption that there would be in one
year, or five years, or ten years, enough
tin plate made in the United States to
meet the local demand. He was willing
to beg off and To ask those men who
were preparing to manufacture tin plates
not to exercise tho power which they had
got in congress and not to force the IN
crease OF duty on all the tinware used in
the country-on every tin cup. on every
tin plate and coffee pot. and on every
yard of tin roofing in the United States
and instead of the increased duty to
take . bounty of one cent u pound or two
able men they ought to be willing to do
that
After considerable debate a vote was
taken on Vests amendment. which was
rejected.
Plumb offered the amendment of which
be had given notice to strike out the
clause imposing a duty of two and two
tentbs cents a pound on tin plate. reserv-
ing the other part Of the proposition as
to bounty, but finally withdrew it and Of
fered another making the duty on tin
plate one cent a pound and providing a
bounty of one cent a pound on plate
manufactured in the United States.
Without further action on the amend
ment the senate adjourned.

more serious than was at first reported.
1t seems that some 1000 GuatemaEan

regular troops of Gen. Ezta drove them
back and scattered them, capturing eight
pieces Of artillery. The defeated troops

While the full bloods and most of the half

Gov. Byrd brought the militia about the

WAsHINGToN. Aug. 14.-The Repub-
lican senatorial caucus tonight was the
most important yet held. 1t was a very
inharmonious meeting. Quay and Cam
eron both made speeches and strongly
represented the political ex~depediency of
doing anything with the federal election
bill at present, and urged the necessity of
an early adjournment from a party stand.
point. Aldrich, also on the side of tlose
who desire an adjournment, was tie
spokesman for those senators WHO
view the embarrassment and delay over
the tariff bill as outweighing all other
considerations in deciding the policy to be
pursued. Plumb also spoke, and it is
understood opposed the elections bill out
and out. For the friends of the bill Hoar
and Spencer were the champions. The
latter male a strong speech, which some
denominated as ''readi Z tie riot act"
and armed the senators that they
must meet the issue squarely. III.
elections bill must be passed
now at this s~es>iun or not
at all. 1t would be futile To 20 b f re the
country with any statement that this bill
would be passed at the short session. |,
was Of supreme importance that it should
be passed at once. HIS remarks brought
out sharp retorts from several opponents
ofthe bill. The discussion showed there was
a greater number OF senators than had
been generally supposed who, for one
reason or another. are willing to adjourn
without the election bill being voted upon.
The number of these senators is placed at
fifteen. Finally. about 1920, an adjourn
ment was proposed and forced by a major
ity vote.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. l4,-Ten
acres of the farm of Thomas Haben, late
representative in the legislature, three
miles north of Waldern. have been de-
stroyed for farming purposes and great
hoes have been blown in the earth. The
course of Flat Rock creek has been turned
up stream. Birds. snakes and rabbits
and fish are de.d, while fish were
thoroughly cooked in the heated waters.
Without warning a terrific explosion
took place. Great trees were hurled sky
ward and all the waters of Flat Rock
creek ~couv--'ei to foam and steam. A
vast pockei ~ ra;ural gas burst forth and
the scene wa, isnutiful to behold. The
gas took fire and blazed fiercely up above
the trees and continued all yesterday and
last night. One of the marvellous effects
is that not a drop of Flat Rocks food has
run below the cavern since the upheaval.

Shippers Gain a victory.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE shippers
throughout the United States have
gained a victory over the railroads in re-
ceiying a modification Of the uniform bill
Of lading. The concession made by the
commissioners consists in striking oat the
words mot negotiable" against which
the chief complaint was made. At a
meeting Of the joint committee of the
trunk lines and toe Central Traffic Asso-
citation and representatives oil the lake
and rail lines. which was held in this city
today. the subject was fully discussed in
the light of the objections raised by the
commercial organizations of the country.
Some of the roads threatened to discon-
tinue the use of the new bill of lading
unless it was adopted by ali Hii1es. as ship
pers we're now discriminating in favor of
the Grand Trunk, Wabash and the few
lake lines that had refused to
adopt Vt in its present form Chair
man Blanchard OF the Central Traffic
Association strongly recommends that the
words mot negotiable he stricken out.
The recommendation was unanimously
concurred in and the amended bill of lad
ing was adopted by all lines, to take effect
Sept. l.. Representatives of the Grand
Trunk and Wabash accepted it in its new
form, as also did all the other lines. No
action was taken in regard to the other
objections that have been urged against
the bill of lading, but the permanent COM
mittee on the uniform bill of lading will
take them up at the earliest day posi-.
Bile dsv. This practically settles the fight
over the uniform bill of ladlng. The
amendment makes il negotiable paper
and bankers will no longer refuse 10 ad.
