CONGRESS AND THE CASH.

A Saving Made by the Democrats as
Compared With the Republicans.
WASHINGTON, July 17.AIn about week,
unless there is deadlock, the country
will know just how much money has been
appropriated at this session of congress and
will be able TO make some comparisons Of
its work with that Of the previous session.
10 is impossible to make these
comparisons now, or to get anywhere near
them, because the big sundry
civil bill has yet to be agreed upon. The SEN
ate increased this bill by S11 900 900, and it
cannot be ioretold what the House will do
about this increase. The Notifications and
the deficiency bills also remain to be agreed
upon. Representative Dockery Of Missouri
who is on the committee on appropria>
tions, says that the expenditures
of this session will be at least
S45, ,000, 600 less than was appropriated at the
second session of the Fifty-first congress,
and il they are not less than at the first
session Of the Reed congress, it will be due
to the fact that at that first session congress
failed to appropriate $3S, ,Sl7, 900 that was
needed for the current expenses of the
government.
wHEN THE MONEY FLEW.
1T was at the second session of the billion
dollar congress" :" said Mr.. Dookery, that
the record was made that startled the coun-
session we're about $541 900, 900, and in this
unprecedented amount not dollar for river
and harbor improvements was included.
This item alone meant a saving OF $40, ,00O,-
900 or $4,000, 600, and the liabilities
will be still further increased
When 1t is remembered that at the present
session the democratic House has been conn.,
pelled to appropriate in round numbers
$l5. .000,00 of deficiencies, for which no pro-
vision was made in the second session of the
billion-dollar congress. The amount
appropriated for pensions by this session is
substantially the same as that appropriated
by the second session Of the Reed congress
Before the passage OF the act of June 27,
1890, the annual amount put out for pen
sions was in the neighborhood Of 800 ,00O,-
900, while now it is IN the neighborhood Of
$135, ,000 900. In addition to this there was
a deficiency from the billion-dollar cou-
gress for pensions Of over 57.0O0OOO, max
ing total expenditure for pensions ouly O

The Labor Assembly of Chicago Adopts
Resolutions.

The Labor Assembly of Chicago Adopts
Resolutions.
CHICAGO. July 17.-If the sentiments ex-
pressed by the trades and labor assembly at
its meeting to-day were carried out the
Pinkertons. William and Robert, together
with Manager Frick OF the Carnegie works,
would be placed under arrest on charges of
murder, treason. melting to riot and insur-
reotion. By far the most radical declara-
rations yet made by any labor organiza-
ton In the United States respecting the
Homestead troubles were adopted OF the
S''DS as the 0 meeting nee '''"O1ys Sas " oaiIsd Sd
to order, Tommy" Morgan arose
and moved to suspend the rules and receive
a report from the executive board on "the
Homestead affair." The motion was carried
and Mr.. sQuinton Of the tin and sheet iron
workers read a lengthy preamble and
resolutions. They recited the existence OF
the Pinkerton agency and its habit OF
sending armed assassins into the different
states and territories to shoot down Ameri-
can citizens and workmen;' stated that
General Manager Friok conspired with the
Pinkertons to send EARNED assaSslns, called
watchmen, to Homestead, where, by Man
ager Frick's instructions, the armed hire
lings attacked, killed and MANNED citizens
and workingmen, created riot and inl-
periling the welfare of the United States.
Such acts are auarchlstio and against the
spirit of our liberties The resolutions
continue as follows
Resolved That we demand Of the governor
of Illinois that he demand the arrest Of William
Pinkerton of Chicago on charge that he In
cited riot and insurrection; that VIC call upon
Gov. Flower Of New York to cause the arrest OF
Robert Pinkerton of Nev York city on a SINH
lar charge and we call upon the governor Of
Ponnsylvania that he cause the arrest OF Man
ager II. O. Frick of Homestead, Pa, on a
charge OF treason, murder, melting insur-
rection and rebellion and at this moment try
ing to deprive Amerscan citizens OF their
homes and of the right to earn their lv-
ing at their homes and at mills which their
labor hsilt up and created.
The radical spirit of the resolutions was
received with cheers, which were given
again and again.
A committee of five was appointed to
draw up charges of murder against the
Pinkertons and Manager Frick.
The following was adopted against the
emphatic objections of a few:
WHEREAS. 1t is reported that military force
Is being organized from the labor unions OF this
city and elsewhere with the declared purpose of
physically resisting tbs armed forces of the EN-.
ploying class; and.
WHEREAS, The maintenance Of such armed
force Is practically Impossible and every effort
in that direction most unwise and injurious to
the interests Of tabor so long as worKers have
the right to vote and through the ballot box to
control the state and national troops, regulate
the police and abolish the PinkertonS; there.
fore,
condemn the movement to make military or
carnations OF labor OTpantEQtiOns.

oame by and stopped aud looked
at them. Atkins said: "What in the -
do you want" Jeffords PICKED up rock
and said: - you, III do a sight more

mob of 200 OF 300. They were armed with
shotguns, pistols, knives and Racers and

A CHAIN AROUND HIS NECK.

kill him. They were just about to hang
him when Andrew Moore, DR.. Evins, David
Thomas, s. Fl. and s. N. Evins and several
other gentlemen rushed up and begged the
mob to spare him. After much difficulty,
during which 1t looked as II several would
be killed, the leaders Of the mob were pre-
vailed upon TO let the law take its couI SO.

The chain was removed from the negro's
neck and, surrounded by a bowling mob he
was taken TO she jail and delivered TO the

times struck with rocks and other wise Ill
used An effort was made just as the man
was taken into the jail TO shoot him. but
