EXTRA SESSION T1LR.
what Senator Carlisle aud Congressman
Wilson Think About II.

WASHINGTON, d. C. Nov Ex-senator
Carlisle is In Washington to-day and will
leave tonight for Chicago TO see his
grandchildren. who are just recovering
| from an Illness.
lie put aside the talk OF his going
INTO the Cabinet as a thing not to be
discussed at all. Speaking OF the pros
| poets OF an extra session, he went into
| the question a little more fully than he
has In interviews heretofore. He said
that 1t was absolutely impossible to say
now whether or not there would be an
| extra session.
1t would all depend upon conditions
not yet developed and which I'm nature Of
things could not develop until later on.
he had seen Mr.. Cleveland before leaving
New York and was satisfied that it was
not possible for him to tell what would be
done.
IF there is an extra session." he said,
IT will probably not meet until late in the
fall' IL depends on circumstances. The
tariff alone will not furnish sufficient
reason for an extra session. The financial
affairs Of the Government may be I'm
such shape as to make an extra session
Imperative. IL appears probable that we
snail md that there Is not enough money
in the Treasury for the needs Of the Gov
ernment. There is a situation i'm the
Treasury which every thoughtful man
who has considered the matter has fore
seen. There is an accumulation Of de-
flciencies and obligations that have been
contracted and will come over to us.
1T may be that this situation VIII
furnish reason enough why an extra ses-
sion should be called. We shall have to
see what Congress does at this session.
III they do not repeal the Sherman law re-
lating to the purchase Of silver and take
such other action as the situation de-
mands we may be swamped. Upon these
things depend the calling Of an extra ses-
sion"
Representative William l.. Wilson, OF
West Virginia, who was chairman of the
National Democratic Convention, has left
Washington for New York city Mr.
Wilson has been prominently named in
connection with the Attorncy-General
portfolio in Mr.. Clevelands Cabinet, and
1t is intmated that this is the business
which has taken him to New York. Be
fore his departure Representative Wilson
expressed to a reporter his strong ap-
proVal Of the plan 10 call an extra session
OF Congress shortly after the 4th Of
March. and expressed his belief that this
was the most expedient policy to be pur-
sued by the Democratic party.
THE true worth and value of n tariff
BILL he said. cannot be tested in a
short time. and the first effects appear
sometimes to be what they really are not.
l think it would be most impOlitic 10 place
new tariff bill before the country Just
previous TO the elections Of 1894. For this
reason favor the extra ,ssion idea, and
think the sooner the proposed tariff
changes 20 into effect the better will the
hnal result be for our party"

SPINTSH CONFLICTS REVOLT.
They Overpower the Warders, But Are
Subdued by the Military.

| MADRID Nov. 16.-During the past
year several outbreaks among convicts
have occurred in prisons in various parts
of the country. To-day the most serious
Of all the series occurred I'm the prison
at Tarragora and nine of the convicts
were killed.
Ordinary Convicts I'm Spanish prisons are
allowed considerable freedom within
the walls. and this practice enabled them
| i'm this ca Sc TO carry out their plan.
Shortly after the prisoners were released
from their cells this morning they mu-
TIMED. At a signal from their leader
they sprang upon the warders, and the
latter, taken completely by surprise were
soon overpowerod. The convicts soon
had possession Of the prison, with the
exception of the quarters occupied by the
Governor. Before they could secure the
Keys that would give them their freedom
the Governor sent an urgent appeal for
aid to the military authorities, who
promptly responded by sending detach-
ment Of troops to the scene. When the
soldiers arrived they found a majority of
the cCnVicts assembled I'm the court yard
The commander Of the troops called up
on the prisoners to return TO their cells,
but he was greeted with oaths and deris-
i've yells. Again he ordered them TO go
back. The cOnvicts, who had armed them
selves with all manner of things that could
be used as weapons, again refused 10
obey, and in a body advanced upon the
soldiers. The rifles OF the soldiers were
loaded with ball cartridges, and as the
cOnvicts moved toward them orders were
rapidly given TO them 10 fire. The order
was obeyed, but before the smoke had
cleared away the convicts were upon the
soldiers. and a desperate hand-to-hand
fight followed. The convicts sought to
wrest the weapons from the soldiers but
I'm this they were not successful. IL they
had been. they would probably have driv-
en- the troops off and made their escape.
Acting under orders from their com
mander. some Of the soldiers retreated
from the struggling. yelling convicts, and
reloaded their weapons.
Then. awaiting an opportunity when
there was no longer danger OF hitting a
comrade. they would fire upon the mutt
neers. \ perfect pandemQnium reigned
for time. but finally most Of the convcts
were overpowered and driven, still shout
ing and cursing back to their cells
Nine Of the mutineers had been shot
dead, and sixteen others were seriously
wounded
