CONGRESS ADJOURNs.

WAsHINGToN, Nov SAT o'clock
this afternoon the extraordinary ses-
sion of the Fifty.third Congress, after
being in session eighty-seven days and
three hours, adjourned. A wrangle
between the House and the Senate
over the appropriations for the Sen
ate employees for work done during
the Fifty-fr8t Congress caused the
failure Of the general deficiency bill,
and the bill providing for the payment
of clerks and employees during the ad-
jOurnment interval between today
and the conyening OF the regular ses-
sion, December 4. The Senate was
determined that this appropriation
should be agreed to by the House
with the alternative Of sacrificing the
deficiency bill, and Senator CockrelI,
chairman Of the Appropriations
Committee. sent word that not a dol
lar of deficiency would be agreed to
by the Senate until the House accept
ed this amendment which has been
tackled on TO the deficiency bill.
The entire measure was, therefore,
defeated by the simultaneous adjourn
ment of both Houses Of the National
Congress, at 3 O'Clock p. m.

An Old Doctrine.

The seventh and best plank in the
recently promulgated platform of the
American Protective Association,
though as old as American politics,
will meet the unqualified approval OF
a great number of American citizens
who believe in the patriotic doctrine
of "America for Americans" the
plank in question read as follows:
"We are in favor of changing our
immigration laws in such manner
that they will protect our citizen lab
orers from the influences of pauper
and criminal labor which, through
the mstrumentality of European pro-
paganda societies, is rapidly supplant-
ing our free and educated American
citizens in every line of industry, but
we do not oppose honestand educated
immigrants who come for the pur-
pose of becoming American citizens,
and who forswear allegiance to all
foreign potentates and powers"

PETER also has a following, but the en-
ergetic oratory Of Senator Allen, Of
Nebraska, who made a fifteen-hour
speech, seems to have charmed the
members of the party in the House
to such an extent that he is just now
enjoying a presidential boom. Repre-

SAVERS STANDS FIRM.
Declares He Will Bitterly Oppose
the (Clerks) Back Salary Grab.

A lively fight was anticipated in
Congress yesterday over the urgency
deficiency bill. This bill carries with
it appropriations necessary to pay
urgent debts or to grease the wheels
tof government at once. Such bill
was drawn and passed by the House
and sent to the Senate for its action.
Away back in the ifty-first congress
an effort was made to pay certain ses-
sion clerks of the senate committees.
The long session of the fifty-first con-
gress adjourned in October. Those
senators who were not chairmen of
committees were allowed clerks at the
rate of $3.50 per month during the
session. These clerks wanted pay for
the months of November and October,
though congress was notin session for
those two months. AT the short ses-
sion following an attempt was made
to tack on an appropriation for the
payment of these clerks, but Cannon
of Illinois, es chairman of the house
committee on appropriations, defeat
ed it. Then in the ffty-second con-
gress at both sessions Sayers, as chair
man of Tho oub oo,,,n,;t+oo -, o,,,.a
priations, defeated the attempted ap-
preparation, though the senate attach
cd it to the appropriation bill on each
occasion. AS soon as the urgency de-
ficiency bill was sent to the senate the
appropriation committee there, Of
which Senator Cockrell is chairman,
attached the appropriation of $4,000
to pay these session clerks for the
months of October and November,
1890. Among these clerks for which
the appropriation is asked are those
of Senators Cockrell Quay, Voorhees,,
PoWer, Jones OF Arkansas, Carlisle,
Pugh, Sanders and Blodgett, including
the wife of ex-senator Reagan and
the daughter of Senator George, Mrs.
Reagan having been the secretary of
her hueband and Miss George the
secretary of her father Mr.. Savers,
as chairman of the appropriation
committee, declared his intention TO
fight this appropriation to the bitter
end and he will never yield unless the
house runs over him OH a vote and
agrees to the amendment attached by
the senate for the payment Of these
clerks.

Accident or Suicide.

j. Ii. Combs, one Of the most prom
lnent stockmen in Western Texas, is
reported to have been struck and
killed by an east-bound passenger
train on the Southern Pacific railway.
The accident occurred near Del Rio,
where Mr. Combs has an extensive
ranch. The train was running at a
high rate of speed and the engineer
saw Mr.. Combs standing near the
t.. ack as the train approached. When,
within a few yards Of him Mr.. Combs
started across the track and was hit
by the engine. 1t is claimed that it is
n case of suicide and that deceased has
been very respondent for several
weeks owing to heavy loss of cattle
from effects Of drouth.

An Unusual Request.

The attorneys for the prosecution of
the Nine. Wright murder case, at
Kansas City, Mo-, have received a let
ter from two sisters of VIM. Ricksher,
alias John Clark, the notorious crook
and ex-convict, who is to be placed on
trial as the slayer of the employment
agent, in which they ask that Clark be
tried under his alias instead of under
his true name of Ricksher. In sup
port of this plea, the sisters. who live
in Chicago and are reputable. urge
that the trial will bring them into un-
evitable notoriety if the murderer's
true name be used AS the cx-con-
vict, at the time of the MURDER was
known as John Clark, the request Of
the sisters will be granted. Clark
will be placed on trial tomorrow.

AT 8 o'clock this q. m, officer Casey
discovered three men in the act of

"UUT TO DEATH"

The above is the first line Of a sew
en- "deck" head with which, in glaring
type, a Republican newspaper an
nounces the approaching death of
manufacturing enterprise, in the
United States. at the hands of a Dem
ocratic congress. In concluding its
death wall over, an alleged, dying in
dustry, the paper in question says:
The tariff bill will be ready for
Congress when the regular session be-
gins.
1t is said on reliable authority that
in addition to the free list there will
be a radical cut in the duties on man
ufactured goods.
Particular attention will be paid to
the iron and steel schedules, and the
rates on steel and steel billets will be
cut heavier than was at first expected.
The tariff on steel rails, it is believ-
ed, will be placed at about $3.50 or
$4.5O per ton, as against $l3 per ton
in the Mckinley law.
The pottery schedule and schedule
of manufactures of clothing will be
heavily slashed.
Considerable pressure has been
brought to bear on the committee to
secure these above mentioned reduc-
tions from the Democrats Of Pennsyl-
vanla, Massachusetts and OHIO.
