a few moments Christie called

two days and nights in search of Chris

where he took them off, and tracks were
discovered yesterday OF a b~arefooted
man going towards Christie's house from

marked itself in the foot prints and
which tallies with CEristie's foot, set
ties the fact in the minds Of the neigh
bOrs that Christie made his way home

Must the Chinese Coz

New YORK, June 5.-The Rev. DR..
L. S. Baldwin of the Methodist Mission
airy society lectured yesterday on the
subject ''Must the Chinese Coz" He
said the Chinese government did not
make a suggestion to US that their peo-
pie be permitted to emigrate to this
country. The Chinese were opposed to
emigration. The suggestion came from
the United States, and at that time he
was especially needed and welcomed in
California. He built railways, did a
workingman'S duty everywhere and
added 500, 900, 900 TO the value of her
lands by irrigation and drainage, yet
she, who derived more benefit from the
Chinaman than any other state, is led
by hOOdlums. In the last twenty-five
years this country has accumulated only
200, 0C0 Cinnamon, yet. within year we
get hundreds of thousands of other for
eigners as immigrants. 1t is charged
that the Chinese send their mone
home. Well, how long has it been a
crime to do this? The Chinese in Cali
fornia earn $4,000. 900 a year. OF this
they send home 1900. 600, yet l once
heard John Boyle O'Reilly Of Boston de-
clare with pride that Irishmen in this
country sent $40. 900, 900 a year to their
families in Ireland. 1t is urged that
they will not become citizens. yet there
is a law which deprives them OF the
right 10 become such.

A Large Delegation in Washington
Fighting the Mckinley Bill.

WASHINGTON, June "a delegation
of about n hundred importers from
New York city appeared before the SEN
ate committee on finance to protest
against the passage of the Mckinley
tariff bill.
j. M. Constable was the chief spokes-
man for the delegation. He presented
the formal protest of the importers,
who, Constable said, came from all the
important centers of this country, and
New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and
Cincinnati, and the importers protested
against the bill because they believed it
would legislate in favor of n class
against another claSs-for the benefit of
the manufacturer against the importer
also because it would work against
the poor man, and if the Mckinley bill
went into operation d great many of the
importers would have to retire from bus
mess.
Henry Weirts then spoke against the
increased duty on silks.
lSadOre Strauss spoke against the in
crease Of the duty on pottery and glass
ware and Louis Windmuller against the
increase on wool, and other members of
the delegation also entered various pro-
tests against the bill.
Senator Sherman responded for the
committee. saying it had heard the
speakers with interest and would give
due consideration to all that had been
said and printed.
The protest presented to the commit
the by Constable is signed by forty-five
firms in New York. 1t protests against
the passage of the bill for the following
reasons.
/. because it is wholly unnecessary,
the country no longer needing the rev.
enue from such uncalled for and unjust
taxation.
? sit does not accomplish it's pur-
pose.
3. 'It is unjust in that it discrimin-
ates in favor of the rich against the
poor.
4. SIT handicaps trade.
5. sit retards the progress of the ma
ton, the welfare of the whole country
and the permanent good of the manu-
facturers themselves, who require a re-
duction rather than an increase OF tariff
duty.
6. 'sThe administrative bill increases
the revenue by many million dollars"

Republican HGuse Caucus.

WASHINGTON, June G.-The republic
can representatives went into caucus
Immediately upon the adjournment of
the house yesterday, TO consider the
silver question. II had been announced
in advance by the leaders that the real
purpose was q conference rather thar a
formal caucus. 1t was suggested that
there was nc definite proposition before
the caucus, so Representative Buchanan
submitted a motion that the caucus bill
stand as rendered. Much talk followed
and developed a diversity of views.
Representative Walker submitted a
proposition which in effect proposed the
reference of the bill back to the former
caucus committee with instructions to
report 4 bill which will place gold and
silver on a parity by allowing the issu.
ing OF certificates to an unlimited eX-
tent on deposits at the market value.
Representative Dorsey of Nebraska
submitted Il substitute for the caucus
bill, a draft of the bill which he pro-
posed to introduce in the house. 1t
provides that any holder OF American
silver may deposit it in the treasury and
receive full legal tender certificates on
the basis OF the market price OF silver;
that when sufficient bullion shall be
coined to meet the redemption fund it
shall be recovered into the treasury.
Representative Perkins attacked the
monopOliSts in q vigorous speech and
noted his objections to the bullion re-
dempIion nature OF the caucus bill.
Finally Mckinley came to the front
with a compromise position. He pro-
posed that the United States shall pur-
chase 81, 500, 600 worth of American sill
yer each month; that certificates in
payment therefor shall be of full legal
tender quality redeemable in lawful
money, and that silver bullion may be
coined 10 meet the demand for redemp-
tion. His proposition also contained a
national bank redemption fund, a fea-
ture of the treasury bill, and also a pro-
vision that when gold and silver reach
par there shall be free coinage. 1t
OmitS the bullion redemption provision
OF the caucuS bill and was therefore
Immediately assaulted by several men,
bers on that account. A vote was taken
resulting in its insertion in McKinley's
substitute.
When the caucus adjourned there was
a good deal of confusion in the minds of
the members as TO whether or not they
were bound to Support-th proposition.
The committee on rules will decide the
matter when the bill is brought up in

An Evidence of Good Times Ahead.

WASHINGTON, June 9.-COngressmen
are giving evidence OF their faith in
some kind of legislation very soon,
which will not only prevent a panic on
account of excessive specuiatiOns, but
make times easier and interest consider
bly, lower. Nearly every man in con-
gress has recently entered some kind OF
speculative enterprise. E~x-CongresS-
man Gallinger OF New Hampshire, who
is one of the broadeSt Drained and popu-
lar men that ever served in congress-,
was recently in Washington on his way
to Tennessee, where he is 10 take charge
of the interests OF an investment com
pany which control about II, 900 acres
Of fine timber and mineral lands, and
which proposes to build railroads, open
mines, and start factories and hotels,
and in fact build up a large city on the
Tennessee river. He no SOoner told mis-
ex-coI.eagues what he had engaged in
than he was begged for an opportunity
TO take interests. DR.. GalIinger con-
scented to let in a few OF his friends, and
before he left the city had fifteen or
twenty of the leading members OF the
house interested in his enterprise.

The Pacific Railroads indebtedness,

WASHINGTON, June s.-Representa-
tive Miles, from the committee on Paci-
fic railroads, reported TO the house the
bill agreed upon by the committee for
funding the government Indebtedness OF
the Union and Central Pacific roads.
The report says:
l. The settlements should be made
with reference to considerations; that
they should be of such character as not
TO destroy the value of the stock.
=. That to a large extent the payment
must be derived from the people living
along the line OF the roads.
B. The government should obtain for
itself such further and additional secur
ity as the companies may be able TO give.
The reports point out the differences
between the house and senate bills and
say the bills agree in fixing the rate of
interest at B per cent for the Union Pa
cilic and at . per cent for the Central
Pacific, and the period of adjustment at
sevenJy-two years for the Central Pacific
and at fifty years for the Union Pacific.
The reports say that these changes were
demanded by the differences in the situ-
alton and earning capacities of the
properties and financial abilities of the
two companies, and in order to secure
an adjustment which each company may
reasonably and fairly be expected to
carry ont.

More Indian Murders,

WASHINGTON, June 9.-The secretary
of the interior has received advices cor
roborating the report that white men
were recently murdered on the Tongue
river reservation in Montana by north
ern Cheyenne Indians. The settlers are
greatly alarmed and troops have been
ordered to the scene to restore a feeling
of safety. Reports received about the
trouble at the Green Bay, Wis. agency
state that it is owing to the hostility of
the Indians to the newly appointed
agent. Kilsey. and their desire to retain
their old agent. Secretary Noble has
telegraphed Kilsey to take charge of the
office at once or he would see that an
agent was appointed who would do so.

WASHINGTON. June 5.-Census Super
intendent Porter Yesterday called the
attention of the department of justice
to the violations reported to him of two
sections of the census law. One section
imposes a penalty for refusing to answer
census questions and the other provides
a penalty for refusal on the part of the
enumerators to perform their duties af-
ter taking the oath. Up to noon to-day
he received information of the cases of
twenty-five persons in different parts of
the country who had absolutely refused
to furnish any information called for.
1t is Porter'S intention TO prosecute with
vigor all violations of the law which are
reported to him.
The superintendent issued an order
forbidding supervisors and enumerators
from making public any information
gained in the performance of their du-
ties. Attention is called to the law on
this subject.

The BRADSHAW Disaster.

LINCOLN. Neb., June 6.-[Special to
the Omaha Bee. l-Governor Thayer, ac-
companied by the principal state Off
Gals, visited Bradshaw. the scene of the
recent cyclone, yesterday. The follow
ing gentlemen accompanied him: vii
liam Leese, attorney general; Benjamin
Cowdery, secretary of state; Thomas H.
Benton, state auditor; John Steen, land
commissioner; George +. Lane. superin-
tendent public instructions; Edward Big
noll, division superintendent of the B..
& NJ; R. d. Owens, special artist for
Frank Leslie's Weekly. and the Bee
correspondent.
The tram left Lincoln at 1906 a. m.
and arrived at the devastated village
about l1:25. Before the town was
reached. however, there were evidences
on every hand of the cyclones fury.
Dead hogs and horses lay scattered
through the fields. debris from houses
lay everywhere and here and there a
pile Of rubbish marked the spot where
once a pretty farm house had stood.
This ave some hint of the deSolation
that might probably be witnessed later
On. but EXPLANATIONS of aStonishment
broke from every lip when the town
was reached.
An entire village of 225 buildings
completely demolished. not Il single one
OF them affording protection from the
elements, was the sight which met the
gaze of the party.
A more forlorn spectacle could not be
conceived than the ShapeleSS mass of
debris that indicated where the town
had formerly stood. The dead bodies
of domestic animals, and the ragged
remnants of clothing peeping from the
ruins or lodged in leafleSS trees, added
to the deSolation.
Ruin is apparent everywhere and an
army of vandals could not have more
effectually RACED ascity to the ground.
All former estimates Of the fatalities
and damages prove too small. The
dead list is now known 20 number sew
enteen, and the loss to the town and
country property combined is estimated
to be over $500, Oo0. The insurance is
only So, 900.
With two exceptions all the fatalities
reported are confined to the country and
have thereby been confirmed with only
the greatest difficulty. No exact esti-
mate can be placed upon the number
injured, but over two hundred per-
sons are rumored to have suffered
more or less physical pain from the cy-
clone. About a dozen of these will die.
The killed reported up to this time are:
Floyd Brumsey, five-year.old son of Mr..
Brumsey; Mrs. Premier. Clara Prem
ner, her daughter; Johnny Raserre and

Want Free American Cattle.

LONDON, June IA d%eputation from
Scotland visited Chaplin, the minister
of agriculture, and asked him to modify
the restriction against the Importation
OF American cattle. The chief argu-
ment of the deputation in support of
their request was TO the scarcity Of cat
tie in Great Britain and the absence OF
pleuro-pneumonia in America. In re-
ply to the request Chaplin said the
bulk of the farmers of Great Britain
favored the restriction. He was unable,
he declared, 10 hold out the slightest
hope of any modification of the present
regulations governing the importation
Of cattle, even if America were entirely
free from disease.
