WAsHINGToN, May 4.-Notwithstand-
ing the truce agreed upon between the
Democratic and Republican senators,
whereby it was arranged that hostilities
on the tariff should cease until next
Tuesday, there has not been day when
there was bolder talk and stronger pro-
testation on the respective sides of the
chamber than today. While the Repub-
lican senators have allowed the Demo-
Gratis to infer that when he amendments
are publicly announced and the assur-
ance of vote sufficient to pass the bill
is given, they will yield to the majority.
they assert privately that they know the
necessary votes cannot be obtained, and
declare the Democrats in the senate are
gradually approaching more serious
trouble than they have yet encountered;
and in making this statement they ae-
sert senators Murphy and Smith are
doubtful, as is Senator Hill, in the sup
port of the bill, as it is amended.
The Democrats express the greatest
confidence In the success OF the bill.
Senator Faulkner said today the bill
would become law before the 10th of
June, and that congress would adjourn
by the 4th OF July.
Senator Jones has put in the entire
day in his committee room, and has had
Senator Vest with him a part Of the
time. They have been engaged princi-
pally on the wool and cotton schedules,
which it is believed are to be still iur-
ther changed than they have been.
Senator Mills has interested himself in
these schedules, and there is little doubt
be will secure more liberal concessions
than have been granted.
1t has been arranged that the tariff
debate be adjouoned until Tuesday, the
interval being spent by the senate in
executive business. Neither Democrats
nor Republicans are to debate the tariff
bill until it is placed before the senate
in the form contemplated.

LONG OVERDUE.
Tho British Ship Senegal Believed to
Be Lost.

Tho British Ship Senegal Believed to
Be Lest.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 4.-The British
ship Senegal, bound from San Diego for
Tacoma, 10 long overdue, and grave
fears are entertained for her safety. She
left San Diego on March 10Th. and has
not been heard OF since. Today inquir-
les were received here from the London
underwriters, asking for rate OF re-
insurance. None of the brokers would
touch the vessel for less than 25 per
cent, and if the ship remains out an
other week the rate will be raised.
The ship left San Diego in ballast to
go to the sound for lumber. She car
ried $50 short tons of ballast, which
ought to have been enough to steady
her, but as there have been some very
severe storms on the coast since she
left, she may have turned turtle. The
fact that she has not been sighted is
looked upon as significant, for her route
lay in the lire of the coasting vessels
and ships coming and going to and from
Puget sound.
There are several steamship lines
running south as far as San Diego and
way porte, but the missing ship has not
been sighted by any of those steamers.
There are lines running along the coast
to Mendocino, Humboldt, Oregon and
the sound, and it is thought that some
of the steamers must have seen her if
she were above the water. Besides these
steamers there have been any number of
ships arriving at the sound from San
Francisco, and none of those have seen
a sign of the ship. The chip, though,
may have gone far out to sea, soma of
the sailing routes to the sound lying as
far out as the one hundred and fortleth
degree of longitude. Under any circum-
stances fifty days ia long trip and
there was no necessity of her taking the
long route at this time of year. This
would probably throw her out OF the
track of the sound vessels and account
for her not having been spoken.
The British bark Archer, it will be
remembered, was thrown on her beam
ends on March Oath and was deserted
by her crew. The latter we're afterward
picked up and brought to San Francisco
and the vessel was found and towed into
a port about Victoria. Captain Dawson
of the Archer reported that the weather
was about the heaviest ever seen on the
coast and it is possible that the Senegal
got the tail end OF the storm.
The Senegal was vessel OF 1869 tons
register and was comparatively new
ship. She was built by Russell & Co.,
at Glasgow, in 1891. She was 1862 feet
in length, SO feet in breadth of beam
and 2l.6 feet in depth of hold.

ScoITDALE, Pa, NAV 4.-The north
end Of the Connellsville coke region iE
night. The terrible work at the Painter
plant OF the Mcclure company, bad as
it was in itself, is feared still more as
foreshadowing the beginning OF times
and conditions that are inevitable unless
this strike is speedily settled.
The battle today was between strik'
ing Poles, a small number of deputies
and the comparatively few men at work
at the Painter plant. Deputy Sheriff
Sanford White and Chief Clerk Ewing
B. Roddy were terribly beaten and are
in critical condition tonight. Five
men and two women on the strikers
side were shot, and two OF the men are
dangerously wounded Six of the riot
ers have been arrested andt are now in
the Uniontown Jail.
The Painter plant was closed down by
the strikers on the Oath ult., and was
idle until last Wednesday. Early this
morning Joe Sconesky's wife went about
to the other houses and got the women
OF the striking Poles to join her in raid
on the plant. About q O'Clock she had
$50 men, women and children in the
ranks, ready for the raid. The men re-
mained in the rear, and the women and
children, led by Mrs. Sconesky, made q
rush for the coke yard.
This region has Heen many savage
affairs in which women unsexed them
selves by deeds of violence, but the old
timers say that never before has there
been seen such spectacle as this.
Every person in the assaulting party
had some sort of striking weapon,
even the children, screaming as they
hourlehed sticks suited to their size.
Many OF the women bore axes, and some
of the men OF the mob carried baseball
bats and hatchets.
Deputy White was the first en- whom
blow fell. Mrs. Sconeeky had clut
and her husband welded an axe, anC
White went down before the front ranl
of the raiders. Roddy and q clerl
named James Tarr saw him fall. In tn,
face of the fearful odds these two mer
sprang to his rescue and fought thei
way to his side. Then the frantic raid
ers fell upon Tarr and Roddy, as Whit.
struggled to his feet covered with blood
The three men fought desperately, but
the odds were too great, and finally al
were down again under the feet of the
mob. Roddy was beaten and cut abou
the head almost as badly as White.
Tonight White is in the miners hos
pital at Connellsville. The latest re-
ports are that he will die. Roddy wss
brought to his home here. He is vomit
ing blood, and is very badly injured
Two of the police shot in the melee are
pronounced to be in a very dangerous
condition, and are likely to die. Sixty.
three rioters, among them IL women
and 10 children, have been taken to Jail
and warrants for 30 others have been
sworn out, bat the men canRot be found.
Tonight the Painter plant is in charge
OF large number of deputies, and the
company is determined to operate it.

HARRIsoN's ASPIRATIONS.

claim That Barkis Is Wiiiin'.
PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, May A.
Judge Scott, brother-in-law OF General
Harrison, with whom he recently spent
several weeks in Californis, says:
"The ex-president expressed himself
as not being candidate for reelection
on the Republican ticket in 1896. Mr..
Harrison said the Republican nomina-
tion was equivalent to an election, but
on account of family affections he was
not anxious to enter the contest for an
other term, although believe if the
nomination was rendered him he would
accept and make the campaign; but he
is too shrewd and reserved and calculat-
ing to allow his friends to announce his
candidacy two years in advance of the
assent bling of the nominating conven-
tion, even if hs wanted the nomination.
He is very we'll satisfied with his ad-
ministration, and believes in letting well
enough alone. General Harrison does
not consider it dignifed or proper for an
ex-president to engage in wild scram-

A RED FLAG DISPLAYED.
More Violence Imminent in the Coke
Region.

More Violence Imminent in the Coke
Region.
CoNNELLsvILLE, Pa, May 4.-The &C.
ton of the coke companies in arming a
large force OF men in the Vanderbilt
region prevented a riot there today.
The mob that closed down the Fort Hill
works yesterday remained in camp all
night preparing to attack tho Paul and
Nellie works, but when they learned an
army of deputies WAS patrolling the
works, they concluded not to attack,
and dispersed. The strikers have code
OF Signals by which they can be
collected at any point in the vicinity on
short notice, but tine operators say they
will keep the deputies On guard as long
as there ia any danger OF violence. The
men at Fort Hill. who were forced out,
returned TO work Immediately after the
mob had dispersed and are working un-
der protection of so Winchesters. The
formidable display of guns at Moy er
also discouraged the mob of strikers
there, and tney dispersed at midnight.
At no time since the strike was inau-
gurated has violence been 80 imminent
as now. The wholesale evictions to be
made and the resumption by the COM
pany are sure TO incte violence. The
companies say they will start unless the
Rainey works are closed down tomorrow.
Rainey is securing all the large contracts
at handsome figures, and the other COM
panies will not stand idly by and see
themselves ruled out of the market.
Two OF the leading companies announce
they will start up all their works, if in
doing so they have to deputize half their
men and ask ior more protection from
the state troops.
A number OF deputies were sent to the
Calumet works today. There is every
indication of trouble there and at Mon.
mouth. Miners from Latrobe and other
places gathered there and are csrped on
the hillside. During the day they
paraded to and fro past the works at
Monmouth.
The red flag WAS prominently dis
played and incendiary threats were ut
tered.

WASHINGTON, May 4.-Coxey and his
lieutensnts, Browne and Jones, were ar
raigned in the district police court today
for violstion of the capitol grounds act.
The court room was filled, Populist
members OF congress constituting 8 not
able part OF the assemblage. Attorneys
Hyman and Lipscomb, for the defend
ants, raised the issue of the constitu-
tionality of the laws under which their
clients were arrested. The point was
argued by Senator Allen of Nebraska.
Congress, he said, had no power to con-
fer upon the vice. president and speaker
the right to suspend the enforcement of
an act any more than it had any right
to confer power upon the czar OF
Russia. He denounced the courts
for assuming legislative functions.
This case, the senator declared, would
assume national Importance. He quoted
the magma charta and American revolu-
tionary history, and declared the arrest
of the defendants implied a denial OF
the rights OF a peaceable assemblage
and petition. Those rights were guar
anteed in the constitution, as regarded
every spot in the District of Columbia,
just "a much as in California, Texas or
Florida.
Judge Miller, after the arguments
were closed, overruled the objections of
counGels, holding the capitol grounds
act was constitutional He also denied
Coxey a special trial.
The empanneling of the Jury occupied
two hours. The secretary OF the board
by the defense. Attorney Msloney
made the opening statement for the
prosecution.
The trial will be continued tomorrow,
and the attorneys stated to the court
today that they expected to conclude
