WASHINGTON, ID. c., September "a
A show OF personal feeling marked the
opening OF the Senate this morning.
Mr.. Mills, (Dem. Texas who has sew
eral times heretofore sought TO secure a
day on which to address the Senate,
asked unanimous consent that he have
the floor on Tuesday next.
Mr.. Hoar, rep. Mass objected and
Mr.. Mills withdrew the request. The
presiding officer inquired whether the
Senator from Texas gave notice that he
would address the Senate on Tuesday,
unanimous consent being objected TO.
Mr.. Mills said he had given notice be-
fore and had the floor taken away
from him By Senatorial courtesy and
he did not wish 10 have that 5 latOrtf
courtesy extended to him again.
The Senator from Texas was assured
that there was no probability that the
floor would be taken from him II be
gave such a notice, and he thereupon
said he would address the Senate on
Tuesday next at o'clock.
Mr.. Voorhees,, chairman Of the FL
nance Committee, attempted TO have a

Hears Arguments For and Against Tariff
on Plate Glass-Mr. Reed, the e1-CzAr,
shows or
WASHINGTON, D. c., September 13.-
When Chairman Wilson called the
Ways and Means Committee to order
this morning there were but seven
members present. Ths National Fur
niture Manufacturers Association, led
by L. Austrian, Chicago, urged the
Committee 70 give free raw materials.
The plate glass industry was repret
sented by A. Hitchcock, President o.
the CRYSTAL Plate Glass Company, St.
Louis; Edward Ford, President Pitts
burg Plate Glass Company, and A. U.
Howard, President Howard Plate Glass
Company, PittsOurg.
Mr.. Hitchcock asked that the COM
mittee should not disturb the existing
rates OF duty on plate glass. He as
serted that the industry here presented
had already accomplished what the
committee sought 10 secure by reduc-
Ing rates, viz, lower prices to the con-
sumer. This had been accomplished
by competition and the utilization Of
improved machinery.
Edward Ford followed, and briefly en-
phasized the points made by Mr..
Hitchcock. Alfred Blume, of the firm
Of Blume & Tact, New York, importers
OF plate glass, said his company desired
no protection; all they asked was to
have German looking glass plate under
five feet square placed on the free list
During his remarks Mr.. Austrian said
that the duty imposed on looking glass
was not a protective duty, as the for
elgn manufacturer did not have any
competition here.
do you mean to say that you want
a revenue sbolished?' asked Mr.. Reed.
"Ies, SIR"
"Well, that is not what we are here
for, we are here to abolish protective
duties" sarcasticslly remarked Mr..
Reed.
Mr.. Morris, OF the firm OF Van Horne
& Griffin, OF New York, appeared in
the interest Of importers Of window
glass and recommended a reduction OF
duties on this commodity.
f. H. Rockwell, OF Warren, Pa, OBJ
jected to the tax imposed on the impor-
tatlon OF cattle and said the tax was so
high it operated as a prohibitlVe tariff.
Adjourned till tomorrow.

A DISASTROUS FIRE

The OupolS OF the COreOran Building at
Washington Burned, cutting on All
Western Union Wires.
WASHINGTON, d. c., September 13.-
A fire 10 the cupola through which all
the wires Of the Western Union Tele-
graph Company In this city pass totally
destroyed the services Of that company
tonight. The fire broke out at o'clock
aud was discovered by pedestrians on
the street, who discovered the flames
curling over the roof OF the Corcoran
building, at the corner Of Pennsylvania
avenue and + street n. w. By shouts
they warned the occupants OF the
operating room, on the upper floor,
and an alarm OF fire was
turned in, bringing the entire fire de-
partment to the scene. The building
had neither FIRE escapes nor stand pipes,
and the iremen had great difficulty in
reaching the flames. The heat be-
gan to melt the wires aud they
fell in a tangled mass across the street.
As they came in contact with the cleo
trio light wires they made quite an
electric diplay. When the fire was
finally controlled, the service OF the
Western Union was totally destroyed.
The loss will be felt es-
Uecially on account OF the
obstruction to business. The operating
room was not deserted by the operators
until the water from the engines drove
them from the instruments. They acted
remarkably well. The ire is supposed
TO have originated from the crossing OF
an electric & Iht wire. The loss Of all the
Western Union wires greatly interfered
with the corps OF newspaper CORES
pOndents, though the Postal Telegraph
Cable Company did splendid work. The
weather bureau lost their wires, and no
weather report was issued tonight.
The fire in itself amounted to very
little, the great manage being In the
cupOla where the wires pass.

WASHINGTON, September 13.-The
House to-day, after a practical suspen-
sion OF business since last Saturday.
when the rules we're adopted, took of
its coat and went TO work. Mr.. Tai
bert, of South Carolina, took advantage OF
this enforced idlenesS Of the House, aud,
as be expressed II, 1.-The people were
crying for relief to present
for immediate consideration q
resolution instructing the Bank
ing Committee 10 report a bill for
the issue OF Sl5O.OOO,OO in treasury
notes for distribution among the peo-
ple." OF course the House simply guf-
fawed at this proposition. A hundred
objections brushed u aside, and the
House went into committee OF the
whole for the consideration OF the bill
proQlding for the printing and distribu-
tlOn OF government documents.
The bill contains one hundred and
two sections, covers ffty-twO pages and
consumed in its reading one hour and
forty minutes. IL deals with the en-
tire question Of the printing and dis
tribution Of public documents and sub
stltuteS for the old plan q system pro-
posed by q joint committee OF the
House and Senate at the last session.
Ii aims at economy by the appointment
OF bureau through which all doeu-
ments shall be sent out, thus reducing
largely the number OF employees by con-
esntrating; prevents the extensive du-
piicStion that now results from the ex-
istence OF the many different sources
from which public documents are dis
tributed.
The bill was read TO empty benches,
but when Chairman Richardson, OF the
Printing Committee, arose at the con-
clusion 70 explain IL, the loungers
strolled la from the lObbies and hung
over the ratings. As Mr.. Richardson
proceeded, more interest was manifest
ed. and he was soon going ahead under
a running fire, which indicated a good
deal OF latent opposition TO the Demo-
cratic scheme of the bill.
At the conclusion Of two hours OF
weary general debate the bill was con-
sidered by sections under the five min
ute rule. A wrangle Immediately ensued
over the section OF the bill providing
for advertisement for paper proposals
tn one Democratic and one Republican
newspaper In Boston, New York, Phil
adelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Pitts
burg, Cincinnati, Chicago and st. Louis.
Several members thought the newspa-
pers in their particular cities ought to
have a share Of this public pay.
Ashur Caruth, Of Kentucky In a
grand and eloquent speech presented a
plea for adding Louisville to the list,
and Mr.. Mercer, OF Nebraska, followed
with an eloquent plea for Omaha, and
so much strength was developed in
favor OF their amendments that Mr..
Richardson, who has charge OF the bill,
concluded 10 adjourn the House as the
only means OF defeating them, accor-
dinghy on his motion az 4:35 the House
adjourned.
