BLAINE ON THE MKINhAY BILL.
BE Says 1t is the Most Infamous

he Says 1t is the Most Infamous
Measure Ever Concocted.
WASHINGTON, June 21.-Secretary Blaine
loses no opportunity to condemn the Nc
Kinley bill in talking with the subcommit-
tee of the Senate appropriations committee,
namely, Messrs. Allison, Hale and Black
burn. Thursday. In talking about the pam
American appropriation, and being drawn
out by Mr. Hale, he pitched into the bill
vigorously. 1t is said the democratic men,
ber of the committee, Mr.. Blackburn, was
delighted with the tone of Mr.. Blaine's view,
and at an opportune moment he is reported
to have said: 81 wish you were not
Secretary and were in this Senate to raise
your voice against this Mckinley BILL"
THE MOST INFAMOUS ON RECORD.
Mr.. Blaine replied: II wish so, too. It is
the most dangerous, if not the most in
famous measure, that was ever concocted
by any party. The men who vote for this
bill wreck the republican party. If
were in the Senate would rather have my
right arm torn out of its socket than vote
for it."
Senator Allison said with some feeling):
ssYou are winking at Senator Blackburn
across the table, and are just saying this to
please him."
Mr.. Blaine replied: 81 was winking at
Senator Blackburn, because he was wink
ing at me, but / say solemnly that this
McKinley bill is an outrage, and ought
to be killed by some one."
Mr.. Blaine then finished the remarks he
had outlined on the Importance OF the ap-
propriation and retired.

FRANCE AND OUR TARIFF,
The Excitment Among the Merchant
Continued

The Excitment Among the Merchants
Continues.
PARIS, June 2l.-The excitement among
French merchants arising from the difficult
ties caused by the new American regula-
tions concerning the importation of goods
into the United States is spreading to the
Chamber of Deputies ana 60 the news-
papers. Merchants complain that the re-
quirements at the consulates for iegalized
invoices for goods destined for tho United
States are impracticable. One or
two delegations from merchants,
and several members of the
chamber of commerce have been received
by M. Roche, minister Of commerce. Some
of these protested against the consular
regulations while others protested against
the proposed higher duties on French
products in the pending tariff bill A few
excitable people talk about retaliation.
Government officials and the artistic COM
munity have both been startled by the an
nounoement that the finance COM
mittee of the American Senate has
stricken out the clause in the tariff bill
putting works Of art on the free list. This
matter had been considered as almost set
tied. There is great outcry over the action
of the committee. The only explanation sug-
gested here is that 1t may have been done
on demand OF senators from western states
because France still insists on excluding
American pork

President Carnot Completes the Ac-
ton In France.
PARIS, June 21.-The reception of Senior
ltajuba, representative of Brazil, by Presi-
dent Carnot yesterday completes the first
official recognition which the Brazilian re-
public has received in Europe. Senior
ltajuba was long time in the diplomatic
service in Brazil under the empire. He was
prompt, however, in rendering his services
TO the republic. The minister then in
Paris, Senior Penedo, on the other hand,
reused to recognize the republic, and
rendered his resignation to the emperor.
Senior Itajuba was Immediately promoted
and sent to Paris, but was not received by
the French government. The long delay
which followed caused the Brazilian govern
ter was even falling under suspicion as not
being sufficiently jealous and trying to OBJ
tain recognition.
A CURIOUS EXPLANATION.
A curious explanation of the delay IL now
given by NJ. Deloncle, member of the
French Chamber of Deputies. according to
whom France has only recognized the re-
public now on condition that the Brazilian
government make prompt settlement,
either by arbitration or treaty, OF the old
question between France and the empire re-
specting the boundaries OF French Guiana.
Nj. Deloncle clans that no settlement can be
made which will not double the territory of
French GUIANA and that there Is a posi-
bihty of Frances getting territory five or
six times as great as is now included in the
French colony. In any case, he says, Francs
cannot fail TO secure q large part of the
territory between Macapa and the sea.
Macapa will thus become French port,
and France win bo the only European
power established on the Amazon, and will
nave the privilege OF navigating and
trading on that river, the wealth of which,
in the future, M. Deloncle thinks, will sur
pass that Of the Nile or Congo
Senior Gabriel de Piza, the new Brazilian
minister. has arrived In this city, and will
proceed to Berlin. The Brazilians are very
hopeful that recognition of the republic by
Germany will soon follow. Senior de Piza
was educated in America. He has long been
a prominent Brazilian republican.

DUNBAR'S DEAD MINERS.
Four Signals Heard from the Chamber
of Death.

OF DG6Jn.
DUNBAR, Pa, June 21.-The friends of
the entombed miners are again doomed to
disappointment The rescuing party en-
countered heavy fall of slate this morn
ing and it will take at least twenty-four
hours more before the men are reached. A
feeling of despair has settled over the COM
munity.
Four distinct signals from below were
heard at the mouth of the Hill Farm mine
this morning. No one knows whether it
was from falling slate, or whether some of
the entombed prisoners pulled the wire
signal 1t is probable that slate caused the
signals, but there is a possibility that the
miners are still alive, and used the wire
signal. Mr.. Norman said this
evening: II have just come from the mine.
and we have struck solid coal I have no
doubt about this. How long 1t will take us
to get through / do not know. / think we
may reach results tomorrow morning, but
am not certain. We must wait and see.
You can rest assured that we feel better
now that we know just where we are. We

trouble. To-day the criminal warrants
charging him with larceny after trust were
dismissed by Justice Pat Owens on account
of the absence of the prosecutor, Logan III.
Roots The president of the First National

the warrants. He was telegraphed
to come, but doubtless deemed
it useless. Perhaps judgmenI
may be taken against Tolleson in the civil

be the gross amount OF the Mercantile
