The Session to End on Saturday FiIibu us
tering on the Worlds Fair Matter.
The House this morning adopted the Joint
resolution for an adjournment on Saturday
at 2 P. M.
The S peaker then declared the next thing
in order was the motion made by Bingham
yesterday TO table the motion 90 reconsider
the motion by which the S5.G00000 appro-
priation for the Worlds Fair is included in
the sundry civil bill.
The opponents Of the appropriation at
once began fillbusterng with motions to ad-
jourD, TO adjourn till Saturday to adjourn
till Monday. etc.
The Republicans decided to let the fflibus-
tering and autl-fili ibu6toring wings Of the
Democratic party fight it out, and, on a call
of the House, declined to vote; so a call
was ordered by small aud close vote
The call Of the House showed quorum.
but it disappeared again on the vote on
motion to adjourn the bill until Monday
Bingham offered for reference to the Com
mittee on Rules resolution to cut off fill
clustering. 1t provided that tomorrow, i'm
mediately after this resolution is presented
a vote be al once taken on his motion to lay
on the table the motion tc reconsider the
vote by which the House agreed to the
Worlds Fair appropriation.
1t is not believed the Senate will pass the
joint resolution for adjournment Saturday
until the House has acted on the Worlds
Fair matter.
The filibustering on the fair appropria-
tion matter continued until the members
were tired out by the excessive heat, and
the House decided to postpone the fight
until tomorrow, the lack of quorum being
disclosed, and the House adjourned.

Paddock then delivered an argument In
favor of the bill. saying that he voiced the
sentiment Of the great agricultural State Of
Nebraska.

moral and legal points of view, When the

PITTsBURG, July 2S.-There was a riot
union workmen TO Homestead. The men
had been engaged in Cincinnati, Ohio, but
they claim they were not told they were to
work AT Homestead; so when they diseoy-
cred that fact they made a break TO get
away. The guards who were on the train
tried TO prevent them leaving, and fight
took place, in which 20 men were more or
less hurt. In the melee one man was
stabbed in the forehead with 2 bayonet in
the hands Of an armed guard; another had
his thumb chewed off, and nearly a score of
others were badly bruised in the attempt to
regain their liberty Thirty-fve of tue men
then escaped. The Baltimore aud Ohio

Cincinnati this morning. At Belair a
crowd Of strike sympathiZers tried to get
into the car, but being unable contented
themselves with telling the men
that they would be murdered at Homestead.
At HaZelw0Od p men swarmed on the car
and used insulting language Agent Will
son in charge of the men drew a revolver
and drove them off. During the excitement
