irish HOME RUIZ BILL.
Conservatives Get Badly Scared
in the Commons.
PUSHING THE BILL ALONG.
New Clauses Proposed Ruled Out Of
Order by the Speaker.
The Opposition Finally Get an Oppor-
tunity to Breathe When Their Absent
Members Are Summoned to Imme-
date Attendance in the House.

LONDON, Aug. There was consider
able excitement among Conservative
members at the opening of today's ses-
sion of the house of commons. The
home rule bill was reached at an earlier
hour than was expected and Balfour who
had an important amendment to offer to
the bill was not present to submit the
amendment. The Conservatives were
exceedingly DESTROYS of naving the
amendment submitted and George Bat
tley, Conservative, requested to be per-
mitted to act as substitute in Offering
this amendment.
Speaker Peel ruled that at this stage
substitutes could not be allowed A num-
Der OF new clauses were then proposed by
other members of the opposition, but the
speaker ruled them out on the ground
that due notice had not been given OF
their submission.
The Unionists stood aghast as they saw
the report sweeping through with light
ming speed, but sheer fright was allayed
when James Park Smith (Liberal Union
ist), after having eight new clauses pro-
posed by him ruled out, moved that the
boundary commission under the bill be
instructed to inquire as to a better divi-
sion of the Irish electoral districts. De-
bate on this motion was taken up. and
this gave the opposition time to breathe.
Conservative and Observation-Disclosures
whips were at once dispatched in search
of absentees to summon them to imme-
date attendance at the house.
Balfour and other members of the op-
position appeared in the house in time to
take part in the debate on Smiths mo-
ton. Eventually the motion was de-
feated by a vote of 1876 to 152.
Smith moved two further clauses deal
ing with elections IN Ireland, but after
debate each clause was rejected.

1t is understood that he recommends

Free silver Democrats expressed them
selves agreeably surprised at what they
understand to be a modification of the
presidents recommendations. While
recommending the unconditional repeal

he recognizes silver as one of the money

points out that with the present attitude
Of the European countries the proper
ratio between gold and silver cannot be
maintained by this country alone.
He therefore does not favor the coinage
Of silver under the present conditions ex-
cept for subsidiary purposes. He thinks
in this way Europe can be coerced into
an International agreement more favor
able than before. He favors silver on a
parity with gold and stands by the plat
form of 1892, but says that the platform
cannot be carried out because fixed
parity cannot be maintained. Prominent
Democrats of both wings have been given
to understand that these are the presi-
dents views.

Another Hot Debate over the Troubles of
the Board


CHICAGO, Aug. For four hours this
afternoon the lady managers had another
hot wrangle over trouble which grew out
OF Mrs. Ball's remarks about Mrs. Mere
dith Saturday. There was tears, Kisses,
stamping of feet and great confusion
generally. Mrs. Meredith precipitated
the row by reading a report from her
committee, OF which she is chairman and
Mrs. Ball is secretary, stating that every
member of the committee had signed a
letter to Mrs. Palmer asking that Mrs.
Ball be excused from further service On
the committee. Then followed trouble.
One parliamentary question after another
was flung at the chair until even the man
who sits as the parliamentary expert and
advises Mrs. Palmer, was bewildered.
As the debate grew heated a large num-
Der OF outsiders crowded into the room.
None of the many propositions made
succeeded in running the gauntlet and
the meeting finally adjourned with the
ladies' in a very ruffied frame of mind and
the question of the day unsettled.
sion today Commissioner Goodell OF
Colorado precipitated a lengthy and heated
debate by a resolution reducing the
salaries of commissioners st Clair and
Massey, and members OF the council of adj
ministration, to $1,000 a year. Now they
are getting $500 per month. The matter
was finally referred to special COM
mittee.

PEOPLE OF INDIA SUFFERING.
Enormous Losses Sustained by Them in
stopping Free Coinage

Enormous Losses Sustained by Them in
Stopping Free Coinage
LONDON, Aug I'm the house of Lords
today the earl of Northbrook, for some
time governor general of India, called
attention to the existing obstacle to the
importation of manufactured silver from
India, arising from the compulsory Hall
marking law in England. He said that
silver in the hands of the people OF India
was estimated to amount in value from
G140, 600, 900 to G150, 900, 600. Owing to
the stopping of free coinage OF silver by
the India government the people were
unable to find a market Tor their metal
and were sustaining enormous losses.
The abolition OF the Hall mark law in
England, together with flee trade on the
articles manufactured from silver, would,
he declared, mitigate the evils brought
about by the stopping of coinage.
The Earl of Kimberly. secretary of
state for India, admitted that it was de-
sirable to change the law. Silver manu-
facturers in England were, however, op-
posed to the abolition of the law compel
ling their goods to bear the Hall marks.
He saw no reason why the various stand
ards of manufactured silver ought not to
exist in England the same as other
countries.

NEW YORK, Aug. 7.-Aside from the

some respects the most serious question of
the day. Money brokers today were pay

today in connection with this scarcity of
cash was that money brokers were bid

A Court Martial Reconvened.

vALLEso, CAL, Aug. THE court
martial OF Paymaster Sullivan of the
United States navy reconvened today.
Sullivan pleaded not guilty to charges
against him.
Pay Inspector Lyons of the navy pay
Office of San Francisco, testified as to the
usual methods of paymasters in trans
hitting their vouchers. He also told the
court the amount of cash that stood to
the credit of paymasser Sullivan when
the latter assumed his duties on board the
receiving ship Independence, at Mare
Island. Paymasters Skelling and Refeld
also testified as to the usual manner in
which reports were made and trans
mitted.
Evidence was introduced showing that
one of the amounts alleged to have been
embezzled was covered by a summary
statement of payments by Sullivan which
was en- route to the New York SUBJ
treasury at the time the charge of en-
bezzlement was preferred.

Vegetable Soap.

The root of the soap weed, which grows
abundantly in western Kansas, is now an
important article OF commerce, and is the
chief ingredient in very serviceable
soap. A sharp spade is driven down
deeply by the side OF the plant, the earth
is broken and the thick, brown root Sc
cured. The top, with its long spine is
thrown aside. Sometimes long, sharp
tool is required to reach deep into the
ground in order to secure a greater part
of the root. Like the praire dogs g. it
goes down to water. The root has been
known to extend as far as twenty feet into
the soil, but only from two to three feet
of the upper portion, which is about two
inches thick, is worth digging for.
The roots are first washed, then cut up
and boiled out in big vat, whera other
ingredients are also placed. When this
is dried out to such degree that it will
solidify, it is moulded into semi trans
parent cakes that slip around in the hands

One of the most wonderful things about
this weed is that while growing in a
region where alkali pools dot the ground
and where the soil is white with the
chemical, none of it is found in the root.

Inc correspondent OF an EASTERN Hdper
Gives an Outline of 1t.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-The Worlds
Washington special says: "The follow
ing is an authoritative statement regard
ing President Cleveland's message: He
dwelis most particularly upon the de-
plorable condition of the country as it
affects the masses. The banker, and
broker, and capitalist, he reasons, can take
care of themselves, but the workingmen
are practically helpless when such q
condition of affairs as now prevails, ex-
lists. To substantiate this argument he
shows in concise language the actual
effect of the law known as the Sherman
act, now in force.
| He calls attention to the dearth of con-
! fidence arising therefrom. He deals not
in theories but in facts to demonstrate
| the truth of his assertion that the burden
inflicted upon the country by this unwise
| law falls most heavily on the working
men. 1t is for this reason that he be-
lieves the demand of the country for the
repeal is SO strong and universal that it
| is the plain duty Of all patriotic citizens
intrusted with the responsibility of gov
eminent, to heed such demand. There
| fore be recommends the unconditional
repeal, without hint of compromise or
substitute of any kind, and there he stops.
Whatever may be his views regard1n G
the future use of silver as national cur
rency, to be fixed possibly by we'll con-
sidered legislation after suitable time shall
have elapsed, he makes no suggestion
and outlines no plan which might meet
with his approval. He confines his
recommendation and directs the attention
of Congress- solely to the pressing need of
the hour for prompt repeal.
He notes the fact that people in the last
elections made an emphatic demand for a
revision and reform in tariff legislation.
The pledges then made must be kept.
But since that time an unforeseen exigency
has arisen, and it must be met and mas
tered. 1t is the plain duty of Congress,
therefore, to afford relief TO the country
by placing the repeal of the financial
statute ahead of all other contemplated
Legislation relating to the tariff or any
other subject. That is the substance of
his message.
The W0rld's Washington correspondent
has polled Congress upon the proposed
silver legislation and says repeal seems
sure. One hundred and forty-thre rep
resentatives favor its repeal, eighty-three
declare for a substitute and nine will not
talk. In the Senate twenty two are for q
substitute and twenty-five will not talk.
Three senators declare against a repeal OF
the Sherman act. Many members oil
both houses who won't talk will un-
doubtedly vote for repeal. A large

A Great Deal of Excitement Over Who
Should Be Admitted.
ZURICH, Aug. 7.-Today's session OF
the International Socialist congress was
marked by q great deal of excitement.
First, there was heated debate on the
question whether the anarchists and in
dependent socialists should be permitted
to attend, and resolution was carried to
admit delegates only from societies recog-
nizing the necessity Of the organization
of labor concurrently with political
action.
The adoption of this resolution, which
was tantamount to exclusion of the an
archists, led to a great uproar. The
avoWed anarchist delegates positively re-
fused to withdraw, and several of them
had to be elected by force. When order
had been somewhat restored, the congress
proceeded to discussion of agriculture
al and other items on the programme.

UNION PACIFIC DIRECTORS.
The Eyes OF Every Employee Turned
Toward Boston Today.

OMAHA. Aug. 1.-THE eyes of every
Union Pacific employee, from the gen.
eral- manager down, will be directed to
Boston tomorrow, looking for the action
of the board OF directors called in extra
ordinary session. Among other things
the directors will consider is a renewal of
the So. 1856. 900 sinking fund bonds,
which mature next month. The
report that Oliver w. Mink will
make to the board will also
receive attention. The efforts of heads of
departments to cut down expenses by
discharging men is not being particu
larry fruitful in meeting the distress that
prevails in the treasury, and something
more radical is needed.
Recommendation that Mr.. Mink will
probably make, will take the form of
graduated reduction in wages Activity
prevails about headquarters, and several
general agents have been called in to hear
lectures on the extravaganza which they
have been practicing in their DEPART

Eastern People Will Have TO Restore
Silver.

CHICAGO, Aug. T. Colonel A. G.
Fisk, Colorado delegate to the silver con-
vention, has remained in this city in
consultation with bi-metallists from all
sections of the country, perfecting plans
to force Congress to give the nation free
coinage of silver and some measure of
justice to debtors and producers. He
stated to press reporter that determine
alton had been reached to use every pos
sible argument to convince the east that
it was to the interests of all classes to
restore silver and give the country a
proper per capita circulation with which
to do business, and if the east persisted
in reducing the volume OF money, which
would enslave the west and south, that a
combined effort would be made by those
sections to wipe out the protective tariff
and to pension every soldier who served
in either Federal or Confederate armies,
their widows and orphans, and to enact a
law providing for graduated income tax
for that purpose.

FAILURE IN OGDEN.
The Utah Canning Company Makes an
Assignment.

Assignment.
OGDEN, U. t., July 7.-[Speciar.-
Tomorrow morning articles OF assign
ment of the Colorado & Utah Canning
company, which has factories in Ogden
and Denver, will be filed as result of at
tachments fled against the company,
tonight, in suit on a promissory note
of SIS 500 begun by heavy stakeholder
who had become dissatisfied with the
workings of the company under its pre-
sent board of directors. The United
States marshal attached and closed the
factory here tonight and placed deputies
in charge.
At late hour tonight the board OF
directors OF the company met and decided
to assign for the benefit of all creditors,
most OF whom are local. The assets of
the company will be about 500, 900 and
liabilities some sac, 000. The collapse of
the company is mainly due to the Com
mercial National bank OF Ogden and the
bank of commerce of Denver, with both
of which it did business.
