THE NEW TARIFF BILL
A Jostling, Shouting Crowd
Of Brokers.
COLLECTOR AT HIS WITS END
Finally II Was Given Out That
the Time Would Be
Extended.

NEW YORK, Oct. f.-The most intense
excitement prevailed in and about the
custom -houso all day. Whole troops of
importers and brokers kept coming and
going. As 3 o'clock approached, the
numbers increased. until the rotunda
was filled with solid mass of humanity.
which jostled, pushed and yelled. All
wished to get their entries in under the
old law, and stood ready to make the
entries the moment vessels were sighted
ut Fire Island.
BY the decision of yesterday the Gus
tom house was to have closed at 3 OF clock
this afternoon. The mass of importers
and brokers in the custom-house was so
great at o clock that Collector Erhardt
announced time extended until o. clock.
Each moment after 3 O. o'clock the cx-
citement became greater. Those in the
rotunda appeared to be going crazy.
They shouted, yelled ana made futile
efforts TO move about. The clerks in
the various divisions were swamped with
business, Not for years has such u
scene been ennctei in the custom house.
The collector was in u quandary. His
office was jammed full of importers,
who waved rolls in their hands and
shouted to him not to close. The pres
sure on the collector became so great that
finally he telegraphed Secretary Win
dom for advice. The secretary soon re.
piled for the collector to use his discre-
ton in the matter. Accordingly the
collector decided to keen the custom.
house open until ~ o'clock tonight.
The importers cheered.
The steamships Reginald. City of
Mexico. Nandnm, and City of Columbia,
the latter from Havana, with a cargo of
tobacco are expccte to arrive tonight.

AN EXPRESS ROBBERY.
A Messenger Held Up by
Masked Men.
ATTEMPT TO KILL THE FORMER
The Robbers Got Away With
Several Thousand Dollars and
Other Valuables.

TIFRIs, Ohio, Oct. "a bold express
robbery was committed on the Cincin-
natl, Sandusky Il Cleveland Railroad
south of here yesterday morning. The
Adams Express messenger was held up
by masked men armed with revolvers
and the safe ransaCked. The loss Is
supposed to be several thousand dol
lars. The robbers escaped,
Immediately after the express train
left Urbana two masked men with
cooked revolvers en- tered the express cal
and compelled the Adams Express mes
senger a. l.. Scudder, ~ throw up his
hands. They tied him securely and
robbed the safe of packages containing
several thousand dollars and other
valuables. While at work brakeman
attempted to enter the car and was shot
at by one of the robbers. He gave the
alarm and the train slowed up to give an
opportunity to capture the robbers, but
they jumped from the train just as it
was entering West Liberty and disap-
peared in the darkness.
Messenger Scuddor was bound in his
chair by the robbers and one of them
tried to kill him before leaving the car.
Placing a revolver at his head he pulled
the trigger but the cartridge failed to
explode. The other robber then pre-.
vented him from trying ag'in.
When the train pulled out of West
Liberty the two sColndrcls again got
abourd and held the entire crew at bay.
Scudder who had been released opened
fire on them with pistol from his car
door, but was compelled to retreat. The
robbers kept on board until Bellefon -
taine was reached, when they again
jummped Oft and disappeared. The

GOLD AND SILVER TOO
Pennington Excited Over a
Rich Discovery.
PROSPECTORS ARE PORING IN
The Ledge Traced for Miles and
Improving With Develop
ment.

FARMtSoroS, WASH, Oct. 3.-Farm'
ington is in u mining as well as an ag-
ricultural district.
The Snow Bank lode three miles from
town, is showing up rich, and the pros
poets for rich mine equal to or exceed
ing the best in the Cpur d'Alenes were
never better In any of the money yield
ing Lodges of even that famous region.
The ore is there. Its richness can not
be disputed. Wire silver in large
streaks Is plainly discernible with the
naked eye. No glass is needed. 1t also
bears gold in largo and good paying
quantities In addition TO lead.
Practical miners are swarming in and
claims are being constantly located
They are excited to high degree over
the prospect, and well they may be.
The ledge can be traced five miles to the
north and three miles to the south from
Snow Bank. If this be true, as IL doubt
less Is, and the rock is as rich or nearly
so, as the specimens taken from the
Snow Bank within the past week, a huge
camp will not be long in gathering at
the diggings, and Farmington will reap a
benefit.
As the Newspaper reported last week,
some rich galena was taken out ut a
depth OF forty and fifty feet, in which
wire silver was plenty and to be seen
with the naked eye.
The deeper the shaft is sunk the richer
the ore grows. There is already sutii-
cient in SIGHT to create u Juror OF cN-

perts from Spokane, VINO were at the

The strike is AN important one, which
bids fair to turn out of almost inestima-

EXCIrEMGNT AT GUTHRIE.
The Selection OF the Permanent Gap
itai Causes Trouble.

GUTHRIE, Oklahoma. Oct. 2.-To-day
was one of Tremendous excitement in
the territorial legislature. The bill for
the permanent location of the capital at
Oklahoma City passed the house yester-
day. Before action was taken in the upper
house to-day, however, motion in the
lower house for reconsideration was
adopted. The friends of Speaker
Daniels had induced him to ign the bill,
and Representative Perry was hurrying
over to the upper house with it. When
the enemies OF the measure discovered
this the legislature was turned into q
bowling mob. Perry was pursued.
When Overtakcn I'm the street someone
yelled, Hang him." and the propo-.
stion was nearly carried into effect.
Tie unfortunate legislator convinced
the mob, however, that he
had handed the bill to Representative
Nesbitt, and that gentleman made
bold break down the street with the
mob in Iull pursuit. Nesbitt managed
TO distance them Tor four blocks, when
his strength gave out and he surren-
dered.
The bill was taken back to the house
and the speaker, in the presence of the
governor and other witnesses, erased his
signature, saying that lac had signed the
measure under u mis0ppreheusion. The
United States marshal and Captain
Cayanaugh, commanding the United
States forces, calmed the excited crowd,
which was still demanding the punish
nent of Perry and Nesbitt.

ITS EFFhCT IN EUROPE.
Tho British Press Urge the Govern
ment to Hetaliate.

HALIFAX, Oct. 4.-Discussing the Bos-
ton Herald article as to the effect of the
Mckinley bill in Europe, the Halifax
Herald said to day: "Whatevor other
countries may do, We conceive II TO be
almost imperative on Great Britain to
take decided action In the matter. The
Mckinley bill has been passed with the
avowed purpose of coercing Canada into
sovering her connection with the British
empire and becoming a part of the
United States. 1t is, therefore, in its
nature all net of war on the British en-
pire to bring about its dismemberment.

tral railroad was asked by the other
labor organizations TO drive the Knights
OF Labor from the service OF the COM
pany.
A correspondent writes: at is not
generally known. but it is fact, that
this latest order not only has the ap-
proval of some of the other organiza-
tions, but that the Central management
has been actually requested by repre-
sentatiyes of the Locomotive Firemen
brotherhood to drive the Knights OF
Labor out of tho system. The members
of the brotherhood, as in the switchmen's 5
union, have been complaining ever since

in state of terror on account of the in
timidation practiced by the walking
delegates, and other acts of the Knights.

gIneers' brotherhood went so far AS to

There is no opposition ON the part OF

organization whatever. excepting the
Knights. In fact it is claimed that all of
the others are encouraged and supported.

THE PENSION BUREAU,
Statements in Behalf OF the
Majority.
MINORITY REPORT PREMATURE
All the Statements Made Said to
Lack Foundation in tho
Evidence.

WAsHISdroN, Oct. 2-Jayer, on be-
half OF majority Of the Raum commit
tee, stated tonight to an Associated
Press reporter that he had learned with
surprise that the minority rpori had
been given out. l. was well understood
by the committee that the evidence was
not all in, and the Investigations not
closed.
Taking up the allegation In the
minority report one by one, Judge
Sawyer said that there was not one OF
the statements borne out by tho evidence,
incomplete though 1t was.
With regard to Bradley Tanner, Com
missioner Raum's private secretary, the
evidence showed that at the outside he
has only written four or five letters on
the Refrigerator Company's business In
the pension office during office hours.
His association with the District OF Co
lumbia branch of the company was pure
ly nominal, and the company itself had
not yet been brought into active exist
ence. Tanners promotion was shown TO
have been made in futillment Of
promise to Raum's predecessor. With
this exception, there was no evidence to
show that anybody employed In the
pension Office was directly or indirectly
the owner of any stock In the refriger-
stor company. The majority had care
fully analysed the testimony with re-
gard to favoritism to attorneys, and bad
reached the conclusion that favoritism
was impossible. The majority Of the
committee earnestly approved the or
ders establishing the completed files
system as expediting tho business.
They found that there was no evidence
to show that the commissioner ever
failed to give time and attention to the
duties which should be expected.
Judge Sawyer remarked in conclusion
that he gave expression to what he un-
derstood to be tho views of the majority
with some hesitation, because hs did
not understand the investigation yet
closed, but as the minority had seen fit
to- make their statement public, he
thought II only proper to do so.
When asked In regard to Lemons In
dorsement. Judge Sawyer replied that
the evidence established that Lemon in
dorsed notes for General Raum to the
extent of 600, and received as COL
lateral 1000 shares in the Gypsum Min
ing Company, in Virginia. The evi.
dence was that this enterprise had been
brought to Lemons attention before
General Raum becnme commissioner.
The only evidence before the committee
as to the value Of the shares was that
one sale had been made at s34 per share.

ton and General Appraiser Tichenor
spent the day over the questions that
have arisen in regard to the execution of
the new tariff law, which takes effect
Monday morning. Several importers,
desirous OF receiving the fun benefit of
the existing tariff rates, applied to the
treasury department. for permission to
enter their goods at the custom house up
to midnight Sunday. Assistant Secre.
tary Spaulding has informed them that
this is II matter entirely within the dis.
cretion of the collectors of customs at
the various ports, and that the depart.
ment is not disposed to interfere In the
matter.
General Spnulding said to-day that he
did not anticipate any trouble with re.
gard to the execution of the new law on
the Pacific coast by reason of the failure
of the customs officials there to receive
official copies of the law by the date it
goes into operation. as entries made on
and after Monday under the present law
can be readily liquiduted under the new
rates with very little extra labor.
