IA silver Conferences.
WASHINGTON, July TN the House
to-day the Speaker having directed the
journal to be read, Mr.. Rogers (Ark.)
raised tina point Of order that there was
no quorum present. The Speaker
counted 81 members and on motion of
Mr.. Mckinley 20 } call of the House
was ordered; 1877 members-a quorum
having responded to their names. the
journal Of Thursdays proceedings was
read.
Mr. Bland (Mo.) -isingto o question of
privilege sent to the clerks desk and had
read press dispatch stating that he was
Rbsent from the conference meeting on
the silver bill on Saturday last. In order
that he should not be placed in false
light aud appear to be neglecting his
duty he read a note which be had re-
ceived from Mr.. Oonger, chairman of the
House conference, stating that there
would not be meeting of the conference
on Saturday. He would always be
present at meeting when he was noti
fed of 1t. He did not desire to he ad-
vertised as not attending to bis duties
when he was notified that bis presence
was not required.
MIR. Dorsey, (Neb.), moved to suspend
the rules and pass concurrent resolution
requesting the president to return to the
House the bill extending the time OF pay
ment to purchase OF land Of the Omaha
tribe of Indians in Nebraska.
Mr.. Brl ckinridge (Ky.) made the point
of order that 1t was not in the power of
the House under the constitution to re-
call bill which bad been passed and
sent to the President. The bill was in
the hands of the President, and he could
sign il, allow it to become law without
his approval, or to veto it.
The Speaker declined to pass upon the
constitutional question. That was a
question for the House to Determine.
Mr.. Dorsey stated that the only object
in asking for the return of the bill was to
| correct an error.
Mr.. Rogers (Ark. said that he under
stood that the fear was that the President
would veto the bill unless it were
changed in certain particular.
Mr. Cannon Qll.) commended that tho
motion was In order and Mr.. MoMillin
argued that there was no constitutional
provision for it,
Dir. Herbert (AlR.) regarded the ques-
.ion as o serions one. The resolution

IN most instances nothing was known of
hs approaching destroyer until its awful
nar WAS heard, when IL was too late for
light. The part OF the town struck was
oat of the poorer residents, living in
,lumps of small frame houses, often sew
,ral families being in one house. The
men were nearly all lAborers or railroad
men, and wero away at their work, and
only the women aud children we left In
the houses.
The tornado took almost every tree in
ts circle from the ground or twisted 1t
of at the trunk. Great stones were torn
no from the earth and dragged along.
Mrs. MoOarty, whose family was utterly
aunihilated, describing the onward march
OF the storm, says:
~ saw the Cyclone before 1t crossed
he river. It came across little above
our house, ard IL seemed to me thut ii

'ully Realised the character OF the ap-
nroaching cloud, and could have gone
Town and warned the whole town. The
spout seemed to leap right over the house

rible-looking cloud, and the sight OF the
monster as IL slowly approached was one
that will long be remembered"

New YoRK, July 3.-A crowd OF about
200 striking eloakmakers gathered on
Broadway between LsonRrd and White
StrSets this morning at the hour when
the hands in Meyer & Jonassen'S shop ut
No. 1854 and the Mercantile Cloak Com
pRny's place ut No. 394 Broadway were
going to work. These firms are two of
the lRrg 81 in the trade and are battling
ia the front row Of the Employers' Asso-
citation against the strikers' demands.
When their employees appeared and tried
10 enter the shops they were surrounded
BY the strikers, who forbade them with
vehement gestioulations to enter. Some
we're frightened away by the crowd and
- aped while those who persisted in the
fort to enter the shops we. seized and
iustled away by force.
In few minutes Broadway for two
locks WAS the scene of dozsn running
li5hts. For short time the strikers had
ii all their own way, but soon the assaulted
ncn pluckily fought back. Az oonsa-
quenoe damaged heads among the
igikers were plentiful. The working
'lUak. skers, however, generally got the
gorst OF it.
Around Meyer Il Jonassen's shops the
battle ragged most fieroely. A dozsn
,trikera caught Charles Butler, u stock
slerk, dragged him backward of the
,teps and maltreated him. Joseph Ler-
burger, buyer for the house, was
1eAtsn. An old operator named Quincy
vas SGT upon and 30 badly beaten that he
I'D to be removed to his home in q cab.
William Wisner, another operator, re-
jsivoi severe scalp wounds. He was
aiken to the hospital.
Neither pistols nor knives were used
in the melee, tho only weapons used
peinR fists and dubbed umbrellas.
When the police arrived in force they
had no difficulty in dispensing the mob.
They used their clubs freely. Mr. Meyer
ot the cloak Arm, said he noticed the
uob gathering, but had no idea that
violence would be used. He had supplied
he places of the strikers, he Haid, and
work was progressing as usual.

7Hs sILVsn BILL.
The COnterrees Reach an Agl
MIenf-WhaL wit be Reported

The COnferrees Reach an Agree
nienf-whaL Wit be Reported.
WASHINGTON, July six of the Re.
publican senators who favor the free
coinage OF silver voted with the Demo
Gratis to day not TO take up the Tariff bill
until silver bill was reported, and
within three hoars the oonferrees on the
Silver bill reRched an agreement.
The agreement was not precisely the
result of the firm stand taken by the
silver senators, for it would probably
nave teen reacht d in any case, but 1t was
a notice to tho eastern men that il they
were still disposed to be obstinate they
must face the contingency of losing their
Tariff bill or having silver amendment
attached to it. Il was with extreme re-
luctanoe that Senator Sherman and Rep
resentativss Oopger and Walker yielded
to the demands of the western men, and
10 doing 30 they claim to have got bill
as good at least as that which passed the
House.
They have been Obliged to yield to the
demand of the western men that the
amount of silver purchased should be
4, 500, 900 ounces, but they have had the
free coinage provision stricken out and
only coinage provided for to meet the
possible demands for redemption pur.
poses. The new certificates are made
legal tender, but ihs eastern men have
had the provision inserted that they shall
not be legal tender whom it is otherwise
expressly stipulated in the contract.
The essential advantage of the bill,
which in the opinion of the eastern men
compensates for striking out the bullion
=, dsmption feature, 10 that notes are only
to DO issued to the amount of the cost of
the silver bullion and the silver coin held
in the treasury. The Secretary OF the
Treasury is authorized to redeem the
notes in gold and silver coin at his dis
orotion. 1t has been suggested that in
order to obtain gold he would be able to
sell bonds under the provisions Of the
redemption act, but nobody believes that
any Secretary of the Treasury would
under ordinary conditions exercise such
power.
The report Of the conference COM
mittee was presented this afternoon in
the Sena.s and will probably be agreed
to tomorrow. The House will then take
1t up and agree to it in its turn The Dem
ooratio conferree5, Senator Earris Of Ten
nessee and Mr.. Bland of Missouri, will
report against the conference substitute,
and Mr.. Bland win recommend that the
House concur in the Senate free coinage
amendment.

Mr. Frye said that hs had given no
thought to that effect, but he WIS MOI

ever, feel Obliged to ask for it's consider
alton before the Tariff bill could be CON-
pleted. lie would not now anta9onizs
the Tariff bill with the River and Hsrbor

consume two or three weeks he could moi
consent to yield that length of time to it.
Mr.. Edmunds--We will take the judg.
