Republican Senators Vote Down an Amend
ment In Behalf of Pensioners.
WASHINGTON. Feb. Sin the course of the
discussion on the pension appropriation bill
in the senate, Mcpherson inquired whether
the amount appropriated would be sufficient
for one year. Allison believed it would be,
but admitted that there might be a def
cheney of five. six, eight or ten millions.
On the other hand, there might be a sur
plus, but he thought it more likely that
there would be deficiency. MCPHERSON
asked how many applications had been
made under the act of last year. Allison
gave the number up to Jan. 10 as 529, 600, of
which only 5000 OF 5000 had been as yet al
lowed. Quay moved to add to the provision
as to fees, a proviso that it shall not apply
to any case now pending where there is an
existing lawful contract. Agreed to. Cock
rell moved to insert proviso that hereafter
no fee or compensation for any pension at
torney or agent, shall be retained out of
any allowance for pensions. There WAS a
long discussion upon the amendment, which
was finally disagreed to on strict party
lines. Cookrell offered an amendment pro-
viding that hereafter NO pension shall be
allowed or paid any officer, non -commis-
stoned officer, or private in. the army. navy
or marine corps, either ON the active or re-
Tired list. Agreed to.

To Secure FOREIGN Marketx

a.,
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.--The conncil Of
farmers' alliance aud Industrial union had
under discussion this afternoon reso!u-
tion looking to the settlement OF the agri-
cultural and commercial industries of tho
country, and after quito lively exchange
OF views, it was adopted. Tho resolution is:
Whereas, OF the three great industries of
the United States, agricultural, commercial
and manufacturing, the first two are in a
most depressed state, with view to the
betterment Of their condition,
Resolved, That the legislative COMMITTEES
Of the National Farmers and Industrial
union be requested to prepare bill for
presentation to the present or following
congress. containing provision that all
vessels built, owned and manned by citizens
of the United States, that carry outgoing
cargoes, two-thirds of which at least shall
consist OF home agricultural products, shall
be allowed to enter and discharge returning
carRoes, provided said cargoes shall consist
OF manufactured products, at any port OF
the United States, free OF all customs du-
ties. We are persuaded that such measure,
properly Carried out in detail, will not only
build up the shipping interest of the coun-
try, but result in creating foreign market
for the surplus agricultural products of the
United States.

Warrants for the Arrest of Dixon aud M c.

LONG ISLAND Cry, Feb 5.-County Judge
Garretson, late this afternoon, issued war
rants for the arrest of Dixon and McCarthv,
the featherweights. The application for
warrants was made by committee of the
Jetfersonian club, political organization
VINO made affidavit on information and
belief that the men we're going to engage
in prize fight Dixon and Mccarthy will
be arrested on sight. Owing to the issuance
of the warrants it was decided not to bring
the men to the club house, thus deferring
for tonight, at least, their meeting. The
crowd was informed that, owing to legal
obstacles, the fight had been indefinitely
postponed, and that all money would he
refunded. The people dispersed in bad
hunlor. v. I
The cause of interference bv the Jeffer-
sonlan club members is a mystery. The
Puritan club consulted counsel and. al
though informed that it would not be legal
to arrest men en- the charge that they were
about to commit a misdemeanor and con-
fine them in Jail without bail, pending the
investigation of these charges, the authori-
ties remained obdurate and the club sor
rowfully declared the fight off, AS soon as
it was learned that the warrants were is
sued, Dixon and MCCARTHY were taken back
to New York, ." @@

ST. PAUL, Feb. 5.-Three weeks ago three
strangers opened an office in Minneapolis
and displayed maps and gushing newspaper
notices describing vast tracts of
valuable government land in Oregon
and Washington. They represented them
selves as agents OF a corporation which de-
sired to acquire as much of the land as
possible. and their business was to secure
men who would pre-empt claims If the
applicant would advance $25 and good ref
erences they would forward his applica-
tion. When it was returned the
applicant would DO furnished with rail-
road transportation to the point where he
was to locate. He would be furnished
with $4oo for expenses in proving up, and
the Fort Blakeley Mill company, of Fort
Blakeley, would buy the land from him for
5000, The office has been crowded and
large number advanced the $25. Last night
the men were arrested, and gave their
names as William Reed. of Seattle. and
George Williams and William Dunn, of
Butte City.

The Silver Bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.--The old difficulty
as TO when the hearing should cease came
up in the house coinage committee to-da.
The free coinage men wanted the day fixed
at once. After much discussion, Williams
moved resolution providing for hearings
tomorrow and the first four days of next
week, after which the vote should be taken.
An amendment limiting the days to three
seven to five, Wilcox voting with the free
coinage men, and Wickham, chairman,
against them. Twelve o'clock having ar
rived there was no opportunity to vote on
the amended proposition and the commit
tee adjourned until tomorrow.

been absent from the sessions of the senate
during the past two weeks. in which inter-
val action had been taken on cloture and
on the election bill. His attitude on both
Of these questions had been subject to
comment and csnsure and Of animadversion.
On the day of his departure, after consulta-
ton with Allison, he had left with Casey,
who had charge of the pairs of absentees, a
note saying: II should vote against the
proposed change of rules and should vote
for motion to proceed to the considera-
tlon OF any other than the election bill.
And am paired accordingly with Senator
Allison, who is at liberty to vote
to make the notion" He had
been opposed, he said, unalterably
opposed to the adoption of a cloture rule
for many reasons sufficient and satisfactory
to himself. There were those present who
knew that not many months ago, while oc-
cupyinR the chair in the absence of the
vice-president. he resisted many urgent i'm
portunities and many strenuous solicita-
tions to operate in that direction by meth
ods which he then believed and now be-
lieved were revolutionary and subversive of
the fundamental principles of the constitu-
tion of the government.
he had not since seen any cause to change
or modify his convictions. He was now

impartial election law, operative alike
against force and fraud, partisan, and
applicable equally to all parts of the
tion, however, did not in many of
its' Setails receive the commendation of
his judgment. II appeared to him to be
cumbrous. complicated and obscure in
many of it's provisions and difficult of ap-
plication. It subordinated the judiciary to
political control and in violation, in his
judgment, of the spirit if not of the letter
of the provisions of the constitution that
declared that no money shall be drawn out
of the treasury except in consequence of
appropriations made by law.
In order to guard against the enactment
of such q measure into law in his absence,
and without the amendments which he re-
garded as essential to prevent dangers not
less distinct than those which it was in
tended to obviate, he had reserved
the right to- vote Gin his ABSENCE
with those republicans who favored a con
slderation of other important measures un-
less those notifications were made. He
had made no arrangement, agreement or
understanding. express or implied. direct or
indirect, remote or contingent, to have his
vote counted against the passage of the
election bill. He had been a republican
ever since the party was born and voted
without variableness or shadow of turn
ing ''for every republican candidate" Dur
ing that period he had never espoused
cause which he believed to be wrong be-
cause it was popular, and had never refused
to advocate cause hich he believed to be
right because it was unpopular.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The storm yester

very slowly toward the upper lakes. The
area of high barometer, accompanied by n
cold wave, now overlies the Atlantic coast

eastward the Temperature will gradually

The outcome was the selection of the fol-

practicable, in the order named: The eight

may be discussed in connection, although
preference in order is assigned to the pure

Looking Ahead for Voters.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 5.-The free coinage
republican senators have decided that they
will not press the amendment offered yes
terday to the pension appropriation bill by
Senator Stewart, in the shape of free
coinage provision. The reason for this de-
cision is the fear sentimental oonsidera-
tions may cause the loss of votes in
cases where senators and representatives
have strong soldier constituencies. It is
probable an effort will be made to attach
a free coinage rider to some other general
appropriation bill where the same factors
would not enter into the matter.
