REPUBLICANS IN CAUCUS.
TIE SENATE TO MEET EARLIER
AND SIT LATER.

The Tariff Bill to be Given the Right
OF Way for Several Days-The River
and Harbor Bill to be Given a Chance
Next.
WASHINGTON, July 2S-The republican
senatorial caucus tonight was attended by
about thirty members. Senator Sherman
presided and was made the official medium
OF communication to the press. His state
ment was that the caucus had determined
to fix the time of meeting of the Senate
after Tomorrow and until further ordered at
10 o'clock and continue the sessions as long
as possible, no hour for adjournment being
fixed The tariff bill alone is to be consid-
cred for several days, and then displaced
for time, at least, by the river and harbor
bill. From other senator's it was learned
that the object of this policy is to en-
deavor to force the democrats to show their
purpose to the bill, whether or not it is to
be one of delay. The republicans hope,
by this movement, to tire ont the
democrats, who are 20 be left to
do all the talking, except
when it is considered necessary to answer
some point made in a speech on their side.
THE APPROPRIATION BILLS.
The only other measures to be considered
are the appropriation bills. The river and
harbor bill may be taken up before the close
of the week should Senator Frye, chairman
of the committee on commerce, who will be
in charge of the measure consider that it is
best to do so. The same policy will be OBJ
served with respect to that bill as toward
the tariff bill. The democrats will be per-
mitted to do most of the talking.
Iha hill ~, francfar n
from the treasury to the navy department,
which has occupied the morning hour for
several days past, under the arrangement
agreed upon tonight will be postponed
until after the tariff bill is out of the way.
According to all reports the election bill, ,
as prepared by the committee on privileges
and elections, was discussed only incident
ally. Senators Hoar and Spooner, it is said,
sp Ike of the necessity of taking action on
that subject, but nothing was done.
In all that has been said by the senators
there was no announcement by any of them
whether or not they would support the bill
Upon the subject of the proposed rule to
limit debate the general expression OF
opinion is said to have been that as yet the
democrats nave manifested no purpose 60
filibuster, and the necessity for the enforce
ment Of such a rule has not arisen. 1t is
expected that other caucuseS will be held as
necessity for them occurs.

THE DUTY ON RICE.

Aeto rho nronosed reduction of the duty
on rice and rice flour he referred to il as an
evidence of not only the unjust and wicked,
but sectional character of both the House
and Senate bills. Why, he asked, was that
brutal discrimination made against the rice
planters of the south? There could be but
one answer: "They voted the democratic
ticket" The pending bill, he declared,
was to repay the mill owners
their contributions to the campaign fund of
the Republican party during the last presi-
Dental election, and as the planters of the
south were democrats and the negroes were
regarded by the republican managers as
mere political cattle who could contribute
nothing, the duties on northern manu-
factures were increased, while the duty on
rice was diminished. The truth
at least revealed that manufacturers who
were persistently asking higher duties
to exclude foreign competition we're avail
ing themselves by the monopoly given by
the tariff to charge the people of the ooun-
try from 90 to 70 per cent. higher for their
goods than they could sell the same articles
in the unprotected markets of the world.
1t was no longer protection, but pure,
simple, naked plunder.
THE RECoMMITTAL SUGGESTION.
Mr. Turpie addressed the Senate on Mr..
McPherson's resolution to recommit the bill
Will w q jill W AouuSO
the revenue and equalize the duties on inn
ports, in which the average ad valorem rate
on all dutiable articles shall not exceed the
average ad valorem war tariff. He declared
himself in favor of the recommital of the
bill, and said he would vote for it, He
would even vote for its indefinite postpone
ment. He would support any line of policy
calculated to defeat or delay its enactment.
The question was taken on the motion to
md ~ Aafaotai hU a strict
party vote of IA yeas to 20 nays.
The reading of the bill by paragraphs for
amendment was begun. The first schedule
was that as to chemicals. oils and paints.
Mr.. Mcpherson moved to reduce the duty
on pyrolignous acid. The vote was: Yeas,
Is; nays, %; no quorum; and without
further action the Senate adjourned.

He Explains that he Didn't Vote
Against Free Coinage.
LOUISVILLE, July 2S-The farmers al
lance people in Western Kentucky have
been criticising Senator Carlisle for voting
against the silver bill The following letter
explaining his position has been received:
Hon. William Smith Mdgfteld, KV..
DEAR SIR-YOur letter of the 10Th inst, just
received. Every democrat in the Senate voted
against the silver bill it was finally amended
and reported to the conference committee be-
cause we believedit was worse than the exist
ing laws. If the Farmers Alliance of Graves
county believe that this republican measure,
which stops the coinage of the silver dollar after
one year. is better than the democratic law Of
1873, they are, of course, entitled to their
opinion, but l do not agree with them
When the original House bill was under con-
sideration in the Senate voted to amend it so
as to provide for free and unlimited coinage of
the silver dollar, and that amendment was
adopted The House. however, refused to agree
to this amendment, and then a conference COM
mittee was appointed which struck out free
coinage entirely, and this is the bill voted
against. 1 send you by mail all three of the
bills. Yours truly, J. G. CARLISLE.

A BATTLE IN A CATHEDRAL.
Armenians Resist an Attack by Turk
ish Troops.

iSh Troops.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, July 2S.-A large
crowd of Armenians gathered in the Arme-
nian cathedral in this city yesterday for the
purpose of demonstrating with the patriarch
Of the church for his weak action toward
the porte regarding the outrages perpe-
trated by the Turks in Armenia, and to de-
mand his resignation. One of the crowd
mounted a chair IN the cathedral and de-
manded that the patriarch explain the
events that occurred at Erzeroum, and the
position of affairs in Armenia.
THE PATRIARCH PROTESTS.
The patriarch protested against the action
OF the mob and declared that the sacred
edltice was no place for such a demonstra-
ton. This answer to their demands ex-
asperated the men, and they rushed upon
the patriarch, dragged him from the pulpit
and otherwise maltroated him. After being
roughly treated the patriarch finally sue
ceeded in breaking loose from his assailants
and made his escape from the church.
FIGHT WITH TROOPS.
Military assistance was asked for to quell
the disturbance, and body of Turkish
troops was sent to restore order, but when
they arrived at the cathedral and tried to
enter the building they met with desper-
ate resistance. The mob was armed with
revolvers and spiked slaves, and bloody
conflict ensued between them and the
troops. Four Of .the soldiers and three
of the rioters were killed and others were
injured before the mob was driven from
the building. The cathedral is now closed.
1t is reported that the Armenians arc acting
under secret instigation.
Martial law has been proclaimed in the
Kroom quarter, which is patrolled by
cavalry. Several arrests have been made
