Spanish Z anarchists Urged to Deeds of
Violence by Woman.
MADRID, Jan. Fifteen hundred au-
nrchists held reunion yesterday afternoon
at Barcelona to celebrate New Years day.
There was much incendiary talk, and sew
eral Of the speakers predicted reign Of
bloodshed and terror in Spain during the
year just opened. A leading anarchist, one
Volas, declared that ne meant to inaugurate
1898 with baptism OF blood. Great shouts
of approval and torrents OF denunciation
of the grand and middle classes followed
this declaration.
A female anarchist named Theresa Clare
mont spranR to the platform. She is as
fierce an enemy of the established order OF
things as Louise Michel and a good deal
handsomer
AN ADVOCATE OF BLooDsHED.
"Go home, she cried with flashing eyes
and tossing hair, Ego home for the present
and save the centimes your oppressors allow
you to earn while they revel Ia wealth.
Save the wretched pittance to buy rifles and
prepare to execute on the bloodsucking CAP
italists aud their miserable tools the de-
struction provided for them in the anarchist
programme" Howls and shouts Of applause
broke In upon the works of the speaker.
"Give them no quarter" she cried. ''no
quarter; will lead to the points of the
bayonets."
The whole audenoe seemed srenzied by
the woman's wild utterances, and there
might have been a dangerous demonstra-
tion but for the Interference of some cooler
heads. who succeeded In calming the ex-
cited gathering.
THE AUrHoRITIKs ON GUARD.
The authorities have not attempted to
interfere with the movement, which they
believe to be fomented by French, COM
bined with Spanish anarchists. The au-
thorities have made extraordinary prepara-
tions, however, for the possibility OF an
uprising, and the garrison of Barcelona has
been considerably strengthened and the
number Of sentinels at the public buildings
increased. The minister of the interior
has received information that sew
eral hundred pounds of dynamite
have disappeared from the depot,
in the mines Of Linares. in the south of
Spain. The local police have not yet dis
covered the thieves or the direction they
took with the explosives The authorities
continue to receive threatening anonymous
letters, both here and in the provinces. The
police are closely watching the anarchists In
every part OF Spain, and particularly at
Valencia, which is regarded as an active
center of the anarchist movement. A circu-
lar has been sent to the provincial authorI-
ties, containing Instructions for their guild
ance.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2. - II has been

a reorganization of the House committees,
and especially that on wayssand means. and
of Speaker Crisp's desire to crafty him,
provided he could be reelected speaSer that
Mr. Crisp's chief difficulty in carrying out
this purpose would be in the case OF the
Craftsmanship of the ways and means. now
held by Mr.. Springer. They were very
much interested, therefore. in significant
statement which they saw to-day in the
Washington correspondence of the Chicago
Herald, Mr.. Springer's organ. which ap-
peAred TO them to have been approved il
not inspired by him. IL Is in dis
cussion of this proposed Cleveland
reorganization of the House and
10 as follows: This would Of course leave
Mr.. Springer out, but he does not desire
to take up the hard work of the ways and
means committee during the next year and
a half, and would be content to accept the
chairmanship Of some other important COM
mittee of the House. His health is good
again and ne does not care to take any risks
Of breaking himself down again by over

The Toronto Globe Objects to Presi-
dent Herrison's Methods.
TORONTO, ONT, Jan. "A dispatch
dated Washington, received here last Satur-
day. states in effect that President Harrison
has determined to make the end Of his adj
ministration notable by blow at Canada
in the shape OF presidential proclamation
curtailing or abolishing the privileges
now enjoyed by the Canadian railways Of
transporting goods through the United
States in bond. 1t has excited considerable
comment here. The Globe In dealing with
the matter, says: IF there is substantial
ground OF complaint against the Canadian
roads, il consists not In the amount Of their
earnings, nor in the vastness of their sub
sides. but in the fact, il it be a fact, that
in regard to American traffic the Canadian
companies are not complying with the inter-
state commerce law. They have declared
expressly that they regard themselves
bound by that law aud are ready to obey
it. If, Notwithstanding that avowal. they
are disregarding or evading 1t, there 10
surely some more business-like and digni-
fed way OF dealing with the ques-
tion than these everlasting seedlings
and dark hints at blows at Canada. II the

required, as the interstate commerce com-
mIssioners say, why does not congress make
itl II it is alleged that the difficulty of en-
forcement arises from the treaty of Wash
ington or from the Canadian railway law,
why is not that matter brought before the
notice of Canada in a clear, regular
and courteous communication. In
this and other questions the
Americans may have some genuine
ground of complaint against Canada or its
government, but we confess we are weary
Of this endless repetition OF seedlings In
which railway subsidies. canals, Canadian
Pacific railways. steamboats,, men-of-war
on the lakes and fisheries are jumbled to-
gether in hopeless confusion"
Concluding, the Globe thinks that there
is hope that with the advent of the Cleve-
land administration in March a more
straightforward mode of dealing with these
questions will be adopted.

MARsEILLEs, Jan. 2.-Ths Petit MGrseil-
iaise publishes an interview with M. Loubet
as to the attitude OF the chamber toward
the Panama canal scandal. NJ. Loubet says
that the chamber rushed headlong, withous
consideration or preparation. into the
Panama inquiry. The deputies seemed
suddenly to have Lost their senses and they
outbid each other in overzealousness and
reckless accusations. Doubtless the scandal
was bad enough, but the bad Judgment OF
the chamber had fostered erroneous con-
oeptions among the people Of its magnitude.
Such an excessive outburst of prudery mush
its own ends. Most extravaganu
hopes had been raised among
disloyal parties by the recklessness
shown In the chamber, and the whole fabric
of the republican institutions Ia France bad
been endangered Unless great care and
tact were exercised constantly in the nexu
few weeks, the men who had behaved 80
fanatically might have startling proofs OF
the errors into which they had fallen and
caused others to fail. Every effort must te
made TO wind up the whole Panama affair
before next March in order that this en-

The number Of the strikers has increased

hind the movement. The military are
under instructions to enforce order without

NEBRAsKA's LEGISLATURES.
The Lively Fight for Control Opens al


The Lively Fight for Control Opens at
Lincoln To-day.
OMAHA, NEB., Jan. AT Lincoln To-
morrow will open one of the prettiest three
cornsred fight ever witnessed IN q legis-
lative session. Neither Of the three parties
has sufficient strength to organize either
house Of the Nebraska general assembly
without the assistance Of the other two, and
thus far no plan or fusion or combination
has been presented that meets the approval
OF the parties interested. 1t seems proba-
BILE thai the democrats aud
independents may get together
before tomorrow night. In addition TO the
election of United States senator to suc-
coed Senator Paddock, the legislature will
be called upon to deal with important rail-
road legislation and other matters Of vital
interest to the state. From these reasons
comes the Importance OF controlling the
organization OF the House, as the party
holding the organization of that body can
control the legislature. 1t was suggested
last night that the anti-mouopoly members
of the legislature, irrespective of party,
organize the body and let the senatorial
fight take care of itself. One of the pecu-
liar features is the situation in Knox
county. By a decision of the supreme
court rendered Saturday, republican will
be sent to the House from that county in
stead Of an independent. To accomplish
this it is necessary to serve the courts writ
on the county clerk Of Knox county. When
a bsilif reached the county seat Saturday
evening he found that the county
clerk, an independent, had been
warned Of his coming, and
had decamped. The bailiff is now chasing
the CLERK from place to place in order to obs
tain service on MIN. But it is too late TO
comply with the courts order and have the
republican member present at the opening OF
the session. Unless the combination last
mentioned is made effective the House and
Senate will probably spend week getting
organized.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-Senator Kenna of
West Virginia, who has been seriously ill
for several weeks from a complication of
diseases, but who has recently been consid-
cred out of danger, had relapse yester-
day and his family believed that he would
not survive the night. This morning he
was slightly better, but not sufficiently TO
allay the fears, and the gravest apprehen-
sion Is felt.
DR.. Sewers, Senator Kenna's physician,
said this evening that when he visited the
senator at p. m. he was very i'll. The
doctor did not, however, apprehend that he
would die tonight. Senator Kenna's
disease Is of the heart, from which he has
been suffering for upward Of two years
The family of the stricken senator are pre-

state as soon as possible after 1t convenes to
pass resolutions indorsing Col. Morrison for
a cabinet portfolio. For various reasons,
personal and political, ali the different
factions OF the Illinois democracy are work
ing for the appointment Of Col. Morrison to
a cabinet place. It looks as though Col.
Morrison, who does not want to leave the
Office he now holds for any secondary
cabinet place, would have 10 yield to the

Mr.. Cleveland and Mr. Carlisle. AS yet,
however, no specific portfolio has been
rendered him. He will probably be given
his choice after Senator Carlisle's accepts
