WASHINGTON, April o. Special. Tho

hours were devoted TO debate on the subject
to-day, and at the close il was agreed that
the case go over until Moaday, there being
no session of the senate tomorrow, tho day
being Good Friday. and Saturday being re-
served for consideration of minor measures
on the calendar. Senators Gray and George
spoke to-day in behalf of Clark and Ma
ginnis. Senator Vance will speak for
them on Monday, and will be followed
by Senators Turpic, OF Indiana,
and Vest, of Missouri, the latter
probably giving some history in explanG-
tion of his celebrated letter on the case.
For the republicans. Senators Evarts of
New York, Spooner of Wisconsin, Teller of
Colorado, and Frye of Maine will speak. II
is limited that Mr.. Ingalls, will turn his bat
teries loose on the democrats toward tho
close of the discussion, and in that event the
interest in the case will be greatly increased.
Mr.. Ingalls,. IL is said, will lift the scalp of
Mr.. Vest if the Missouri statesman opens
on the former, as is anticipated.

pal board, American Baptist Missionary
union. Missionary Society of the Methodist
church. American Bible society, Eyangcli-
cal Alliance and Society Of Friends met
Yesterday in this city 20 consider tho
Chinese enumeration bill now before the
senate, with special reference 20 its bear
ing upon missionary work and property in
China. The sentiment Of the meeting was
strongly opposed 10 the bill. II WIS argued
that IT. adoption would be n violation Of
trentv rights and all present were apprehen-
siye il would endnnger the personal safety of
American missionaries resident in China
and greatly hamper them IN their work. IL
was decided 90 leave more specific action for
the missionary societies separately. All the
societies reprcaouted missions IN China.

The democrats to-day carried their oppo-
sition TO the admission of Idaho 10 the length
that they refused 10 vote on the final ques-
tion and raised the point of no quorum,
which WIS oyerruled by Speaker Reed and
who counted the democrats ms present and
making quorum. II is the intention of
the democrats TO carry their case TO the su-
preme court and make test case of il and
possibly keep out Idaho in case the court
should decide tho case in iayor Of the dem
ocrats. There is another feature of the case
which may defeat this point raised by
the democrats. The bill will 90 TO
the senate and after passage come back for
conference, when there will be present a full
quorum of republicans who will agree to
the conference report, which would of
course prevent the supreme court taking
action. The republicans, however, are so
sure of their position thot they will pass the
bill. without a quorum. II is further claimed
that the question OF no quorum will be
raised against the bill when 1t is taken up
for consideration in the senate, providing
an attempt is made TO act on the house bill,
instead of the bill introduced in the senate.

To-day he sent to several jewelry stores,
asking that some diamonds he sent for in

sprained ankle. Salesman Rielor was sent
from hyman's q Co. 10 mako inquiries, and
found Allen apparently all right. He WAS
still suspicious however. and when he re-
turned with the gems had aporter stationed
outside the room door. After discussing
the proposed purchase for several moments
Allen grasped a heavy cane and fellcd Rig
Ter TO the floor. The salesman struggled up
and grappled with the ruilian. meanwhile
yelling to the porter. The latter. however.
lost his wits, and whom Allen broke away

stop Allen he shouted. Catch that

was agreed TO, requesting the president TO in

then resumed consideration Of the Idaho
admission bill.
Perkins. Of Kansas, spoke in advocacy Of
the measure. He emphasized the assertion
that the only objection made 10 the bill was
that those who taught MormOnisn IN Idaho
were DISTINGUISHED. lie knew some Nor
mons who were good men, but MS an organ
ization, the Mormon church was pernieious
Mansur, of Missouri, inquired Why the
gentlemen hnd not voted tor the disfran-
chise of the Mormons Of Wyoming.
Perkins replied. that question had not
been presented to the committee. SO far as
he knew. there were no polygamists in Wy
oming; but if there were, they will be dis
franchised under the Edmunds act. He
believed in the disfranchismcnt of Nor
mons on account OF their practices and
the teachings Of their church. II was for
the house 10 decide whether il would crown
with its approval the criminal organization
known as the Latter Day saints. and
whether IL would tell the intelligent peo-
pie OF Idaho that they would be denied
admission until they took into fellowship
men guilty of polygamy and bigaruy.
Stewart. Of Vermont, spoke in support Of
the bill. He denounced the practices Of the
Mormon church, and said the constitution
of Idaho was in the line Of the Edmunds
