A VOTE AGAINST A CABINET.
The Deputies in Favor of Discus ina
Passport equations.

The Deputies in Favor of Discussing
Passport regulations.
PARIS, July l6.-In the Chamber of Dep
uties to-day NJ. Laur, Boulangist deputy,
revived the question of the AlsAce-L Lorraine
passport regulations by interpellating the
government as TO the manner in which the
passport regulations were enforced
NJ. Ribot, minister Of foreign affairs.
wishing TO shelve the question, declared
that nothing had occurred to warrant an
explanation, saying that as the matter
stood he was opposed TO replying to the
question.
LAUR RETURNS TO THE ATTACK.
M. Laur, however. resumed with a
violent attack upon the German regula-
lions, declaring that they were vexatious
restrictions placed upon French CONNER
clal travellers in Germany while German
commercial travellers In France were In No
way restricted. Tnere was great excite
ment when the result Of the vote was on
nounced, and declared to be in favor OF
discussing the Interpolation by 1856 to 203
This result was due to a coalition Of til,
right, Boulangists and radicals against the
cabinet.
The cabinet council this evening dis.
cussed the position resulting from the de-
cison Of the chamber to discuss the passport
question. The cabinet will demand a vote
of confidence in the chamber. 1t is ex.
pected that the majority will rally to the
support of the ministry.

Those present with great unanimity re-
ported the condition of the trade as fiat,
and production has been generally cur
tailed. After much argument on a reduc-
ton of prices it was finally resolved
unanimously to allow for the next sixty
DAYS reduction Of 10 per cent. from the
price list now in effect. The necessity for
a reduction was charged up to the small
consumption, large stocks and tight money
in the great markets. The association will

WASHINGTON, July l6.-The Secretary
of the Treasury to-day issued call on the
national bank repositories for nearly

tinued by Secretary Foster the number of
repositories has bsen reduced TO thirty, and

sr PAUL, MINI, July 16.-A special
from West Superior wis., to the Pioneer
p,ssssays:"A wind storm OF terrific violence
swept over Superior to-day, carrying death
and obstruction in its path. The wind was
accompanied by a pouring rain. The air
was heavily charged with electricity. The
s.orm lasted only about thirty minutes, but
during that period many thousands Of dol
hrs of damage was done, besides taking as
many as five lives and visiting terrible In
iuries upon many persons.
AHoTEL IN RUINS.
During the progress Of the storm an
alarm of fire was turned in from the Fifth
ward. and the department responded to
find new three-story frame hotel en- Third

startling rapidity. Hacks and drays
containing their loads few to the
scene. Meantime the rain was falling
in torrents and the lightning was crashing
like artillery. The building Is a complete
wreck In spite of the pouring rain visitors
rushed in and assisted the firemen in the
work Of rescue. Men Of all professions and
walks Of life stood shoulder to shoulder and
worked with only thought of humanity.
STILL BURNING.
"Tbe fire is still in progress, fresh men
taking the places of those who give up
through fatigue. Fully 5000 people were
at the ruius. At late hour to night five
men had been taken out dead, two fatally
and several others more or less seriously in

partment sustained e broken leg by the
PARTING of a rope which was being used
TO pull away wreckage. An eyewitness
of the disaster says he saw a crew of
workmen run into the building TO seek
shelter from the storm. Fully thirty or
forty men must have been inside. They
were distributed all over the floors. 1t ap-
pears that the men on the third floor took
warning first and five were seen to jump
and get away safely.
MUCH OTHER DAMAGE.
This disaster was the central figure, but
much damage was done in all directions

employed by the Silver Creek and Morris

"A large frame building was blown down
at the corner of Third and Tower streets in

LABOR IN ENGLAND.
The Chairman Of Dock Company
Before the Commission.

GOlOI6 lll6 OnnlSblOUs
LONDON, July 1G.-At the session to-day
Of committee "a" of the royal labor com.
mission, Hubbard, chairman of the com
pany governing five of the largest docks
and employing nearly 10000 men, was pres
emit. Mr.. Hubbard, during the course OF
his testimony, said that 81 per cent. OF
the work done on those docks
was piece work, and that
the average weekly wages paid
was 30 shillings and 9 pence. The remain
ing part OF the work was done by days
work, for which the average wages paid
was % shillings and pence. He added
That the only departure from the agreement
made with the dock laborers' union was
that arising from the dock laborers' repre-
sentative refusing to allow the unionists to
work with non-unionists.
WALKING DELEGATES RULED OUT.
Finally, according TO Mr.. Hubbards
testimony, the company gave notice TO the
union that in future it would not allow
walking delegates admission into the docks.
There was no blacklisting. though the men
we're grossly misoonducting themselves
through their refusal to work. There were
throughout the docks in 1890 900 accidents,
of which number nine were fatal
Prof. Marshall, a member OF the royal
oommission, here began asking series Of
questions, the object of which, he ex-
planned, was to ascertain what value there
was in certain socialist arguments brought
forward, he said, by the people of "all
sorts and conditions" which had been pro-
pounded TO him. A good deal Of
lmpatience was manifested during many of
the professors questions, to several Of which
MIR. Hubbard was unable to reply. as he
he said he could not grasp the scope Of the
argument. The Earl OF Derby, who had
been consulting Lord Harrington while Prof.
Marshall had been putting his ques-
lions, suddenly and abruptly ordered the
room to be cleared.

HARRISON TOASTED.
Lord Monksweu in toasting President
Harrison and the success of the copyright
act, commented upon the flieLdly feeling
shown by President Herrison in extending
at once without demur the act TO England.
He thought that clauses existed IN the act to
which exception might be taken. ct sub
stantially the UnitAd States had gone as far
as could be reasonably expected under the
circumstances in meeting the wishes Of Eng
land He hoped no vestige or irritation or
ANNOYANCE would remain either on the part
Of England or on the part OF America TO
cloud the perfect understanding that ought
to exist between the people so closely allied
by blood ard so worthy Of one another's
friendship. [Cheers.]
MINISTER LIECoLN's REPLY.
Mr. Lincoln replied: at is great honor to
me to have an opportunity of meeting at
once so many who are devoting their en-
ergies and talents to the instruction and
literary entertainment of the great English
speaking race. 1t is an especial pleas
ure to do SO under the circumstances
which made the dinner of the society of
authors so peculiarly notable 10 you in sig
Mailing the end of the impotence which
has existed 80 many years on both sides of
the water over the delay in establishing
proper relations between the copyright laws
of England and those Of the United States.
A letter from Lord Tennyson was read,
in which he said: "In the name of the
United Kingdom our society oongratulates
the United States on their great act of
justice"

WASHINGTON, July 16.-A number Of

of Baron Fava, who was recently Italian
minister here, but who is a naturalized citi-

similar views, and then a set of resolutions

Mrs. Blaine that Secretary Blaine
would not be able to return to Washington
before Oct. 70. the date fixed for the con-
ference with the Canadians about
reciprocity, proposed to go to Bar Harbor
shortly to consult with Secretary Blaine, a

come and visit him would not be dlsre>
garded by the President, but he is not go-
ing to Bar Harbor to consult Secretary
Blaine about business, either national or
international. The President gave Secre-
tary Blaine an indefinite sick leave when he
got back from the west, and since then he
has managed the affairs of the state
department without Secretary Blaine's
assistance. He Will continue TO do
so. He will announce the Spanish
reciprocity agreement by proclamation
Aug. /, if not before, ard will follow that
up with other announcements which will
show that he has not been idle in his new
office, both as President ard Secretary of
State. He is already preparing for what
ever conference there may have to be in
October with the Canadians, with little
expectation, by the way, that anything
will come from IL.
