 Bill Spent the Day.
SUCCESSFUL FILIBUsTERlNc
The Opponents of the Conger Bili Pre-. vent Vote on that Measure by Leaving tho House---The
 Butterworth Biii.

WASHINGTON, D. C., August 21-~The friends of the pure e-lard bill got it before the House today, but that was all they could do with it. Enemies of the measure lodged out and broke quorum, Then, when call of the House was ordered, they lodged back and made quorum. They lodged out again and broke the quorum whenever q test vote came on the bill. So the afternoon was worn away and when adjournment came the pure lard bill was no nearer passage than when it came be- fore the House as unfinished business
 There is . strong pointer out tonight that something more than opposition to the lard bill was at work killing time. This special order for the consideration of tho Butterworth anti-option bill If the lard bin drags along until o'clock to-raorrow afternoon the special order for the Butter. worth bill will be wiped out.
 By some such tactics the anti option bill can be stavei off perhaps. It is the only way the passage of that bill can be averted. Ii the House ever gets fair vote agains [ option dealing the bill will pass, for thcso are times when every Congressman who has farmers in his district is thinking about them. Mir. Butterworth expressed the opinion tonight that both tho lard bill and his anti option bill would be beaten by tilibustering. But Uncle Joe Cannon, who. as member of the Committee on Rules, speaks by the card, vows that neither of the bills shall be beaten by any such tactics He says that opponents of tho lard bill have got 10 stop their foolishness, and permit a square vote on the bill. He also says the Committee on Rules will keep on making special orders for the Butterworti bill until there is n vote upon it.

Tho Awful Fate of Chinese Canning
 House Laborers.

SAN FRANcrsco. Cal, August 96.-The survivors of the ship Oneida, wrecked in the Arctic last April, reached here to-day. Several of the crew tell a thrilling story of the scenes. Seventy six Chinese went down with tho vessel. The ship left here in March. with 200 Chinese, for salmon cannery at Wine Point Alaska. John Ericsson, q sailor, said;
 The ship struck on a sunlSen rock in Cooks inlet during thick fog at 9 o'clock at night. The shock was so sharp it threw every one off his feet The water soon was Rowing into the ship at a furious rate, and the order was given to get out the boats. The sccae that followed that order was simply terrible. The Chinese in the hold came swarming on the deck as if the imps of hell were loose. They cursed, kicked, charged on the boats and had to be driven back by the crew. Some ran into the rigging and then down to the deck again.
 They attempted to take possession of the boats, and it was necessary to push out from the side. To attempt to hold them in check was impossible. They were like demons. They ran to the side of the ship, they scufied with each other in their mad ness, and one half of them leaped into the water only to drown. None of the white mca were drowned but every stitch of clothing except what they had on their backs was lost All this happened in less time than I can tell 1t to you. In twenty minutes after we struck there was nothing to be seen of the ship. She landed fairly on top of the rock, and was broken in two As the good ship was settling, dories were washed out of tho hatches. There was scramble for them by the panic stricken Chinese, but only four of them fioated of the ship in them. It was terrible to listen to the walls and cries of the doomed crea lures. We could give them no help. Only about dozen Chinese, who got into the boats were saved They were picked up next day on wrcckage, although one was not found for seven days, He was on a rock and had lived on whisky, of which he had a keg by his side. The canning season was failure, us the Chinese did little work Y
