ANARCHISTS PLAY HAVOC.
Many People Killed and Wounded
Near Carrara.

Rome, Jan. 16-EEost sensational
news is received here from Carrara.
The inhabitants were terrified by the
sound of heavy firing in the hills near
Tirano, where q band of six hundred
anarchists were reported fighting a
pitched battle with a force Of infantry
and gendarmes, sent against them.
Later advices showed that an armed
band of anarchists gathered at Tirano
and overran the Village, compelling
the people to deliver up all the arms
and ammunition they had The an
archists then secured all the wine and
spirits procurable, r and prepared to
march upon Carrara. A later dispatch
says the number during the fight was
not as great as the people of Massa
at first reported Official advices state
that eight anarchists were killed and
forty to fifty wounded. The people
of Massa claim at least fifty quarry
men shot during the engagement.

Washington, Jan. 16.-The Hawaiian
controversy was again brought to the
attention of the Senate today, and the
half hour of spirited discussion be-
tween Hoar, Gray and Daniel on the
presidents last message, afforded
Hoar an opportunity to speak. and he
showed, by quoting from the Hawaiian
constitution, that the queen, in her
recent protest that she could not prom
Use amnesty to the members of the
provisional government, was only con-
filming herself to the limitations of the
constitution, which does not confer on
the crown such an absolute right as
the granting of amnesty, but requires
that pardon be granted only by the
concurrence of the cabinet and other
constitutional officers.
Gray and Daniel made some peril

Minister Stevens and his initiative
actions all the responsibility for what

had necessarily grown out of the Ha-
waiian imbroglio.

The indications are that E. B.

for one of the Republican members

as if his mind was not fully made up
regarding the successor to Williams.
Secretary Smith has recommended

that he will be appointed, the fact

THE TARIFF DEBATE.
Another Very Lively Tilt in the
House Yesterday.

Washington, Jan. 16.-Very little pro-
gress was made with the amendments
to the tariff bill The Republicans,
under the leadership of Burrows, made
another struggle to secure the right
to offer amendments alternately with
Wilson. but the chairman held, in
view of the precedent OF procedure
when the Mckinley bill was under con-
sideration. Wilson, on behalf of the
majority of the committee, was en-
titled to perfect the bill before it was
thrown open to miscellaneous amend
ments.
Several minor amendments were
agree to, the most important being
that to increase the duty on condensed
milk 2 cents a pound. Almost the en-
tire afternoon was spent in discussing
the date upon which free wool and the
corresponding reduction on wool should
go into effect. No conclusion was
Preached.
When the House resumed considera-
ton of the tariff bill.
Wilson Immediately began offering
committee amendments. The first was
to reduce the duty on furs for hatters'
use from 20 to 10 per cent.
The next amendment was to place
on the free list in. addition to books
printed over twenty years, hydrogra-
Iphic charts. Also agreed to-
An amendment changing the rate
on sugar of milk from 20 per cent ad
valorem to cents per pound occa-
stoned considerable debate, the Repub-
licans declaring that it was a new in
dustry inaugurated in 1890 and the
proposed reduction would ruin it; and
protesting against the bringing up of
our children on imported articles.
Breckenridge defended the committee
amendment
The amendment of the tobacco tax.
restricting the increase of the tax on
cigarettes from so cents a thousand to
$1.50 to those wrapped in paper, was
agreed to.
Wilson offered an amendment to
make the free wool schedule go into
Ieffect August ], 1894.
This was vigorously opposed by
Johnson, OemocraD, of Ohio, and
Warner, Oemocrat), of New York, but
only on different grounds. The forme1
claimed the amendment delayed the
benefit to come from free wool too long
and the latter contended that if the
wool manufacturers were not to have
free wool in time to give the people
cheaper wooden goods next winter, he
was in favor of allowing the present
lduty to stand in order to give the
