Patriots Of Portugal Will Celebrate
the Annivers ary Here.
The Portuguese residents will have
a grand celebration on Saturday. A
COMMITTEES on subscriptions has been
successful. That day will be the
254th anniversary of the indepen-
dence OF Portugal from the Spanish
yoke. Portugal had been ruled by
the Spaniards for sixty years, when,
on Dec. 1, 1910, thirty-two bold Por-
tuguese by strategy and bravery
secured admission into the Palace,
killed all the sentries and assassin
ated the Prime Minister. His head
was severed from the body and ex-
hibited in one Of the windows OF the
Palace in the morning. This bold
stroke gathered all the Portuguese
together aud they captured the
archives and government buildings
and proclaimed independence.
A move was made several years
ago by j. NJ. Vivas and others u
establish the anniversary as . fix.
cd holiday amongst Portuguese resi-.
dents, but owing to conflicting poll.
tics the movement failed.
In 1912, two years after Portugal
had gained her Independence
Spain again tried to wrest home
rule from the Portuguese, but tn.
Spanish army was routed with heavy
loss, although having overwhelm
ing odds in numbers.

NHAUSER.

/ OF the Southern Senators were OBJ
structing the report of the sub
committee in order to protect local
inserests in their own states.
Among the Senators named in the
article were Berry of Arkansas, Nc
Laurin of Mississippi and Call of
Florida. Each of these Senators
denounced upon the floor of the
Senate the statement as absolutely
false and utterly without founda-
tion. Senator Berry, among other
things, said that he had not only
not asked to protect any interest
in Arkansas but had referred the
request of the umbermen to in
crease the tariff on lumber. That
if it were possible to obtain suffici-
ent revenue without custom duties
he believed in absolute free trade
and untrammelled commerce. That
he had persistently urged every
Democratic member of the finance
committee to report the Wilson bill
as it came from the House at once.
That not only this, but he had trg-
ed the committee not to be bull
dozed by the parties seeking pro-
lection, but to defy them and re-
port the Wilson bill and force them
to make the fight upon the floor of
the Senate.
That he was utterly opposed to
every species of protection; believed
in the Wilson bill aud believed in
the income tax, and he said further
that any Democrat who attempted
to delay or stand in the way of the
passage of the tariff bill ought not
to have and would not have any
place inside of the Democratic par
ty hereafter. That he was utterly
unable to conjecture who inspired
the publication of the false article
or what the motive was, and it was
known to be false not only to the
finance committee but to everySen-
ator on the floor. Senators Voor-
hees, Harris and Cockrill also arose
in their seats and said that the
Senator from Arkansas (Mr. Berry,
had been the most urgent and per-
sistent man in favor of reporting
the Wilson bill at once and in defy
ing the men who were trying to
obstruct of any man in the Senate.
Senator Voorhees, said that he felt
it his duty to say this and his heart
prompted him to say great deal
more for the Senator from 'Arkan-

A Desperate Negro Resists Arrest and
Murders the officer.

murders the O1neer.
A special dispatch from Shreve-
port, La, yesterday, tells of the
murder at that place, of police of
fcer Charles Wilson, by a negro
desperate, named Joe Reuben, while
the officer was trying to effect Reu-
ben's arrest for an assault to muir
der,
Reuben had a quarrel with his
mother-in-law, in which he stabbed
her in the eye, The woman sent
for an officer to arrest Reuben and
Wilson went to the rescue. Ap-
preaching the house, Wilson saw
the negro, who warned him if he at
tempted to arrest him he would kill
the officer, Reuben broke and ran
out Cane street and across the
graveyard pursued by the officer
until he reached his residence, 905
Sprague street,
The negro ran in the house, got
his pistol, a 44-calibre bulldog, and
defied the officer to come any fur
ther, AS Wilson reached the gal
lery and advanced to the door, it
was opened by Reuben who thrust
pistol out and fired at Wilson.
Reuben advanced on Wilson, shov-
ing him and firing until he had
unloaded the five barrels of his
pistol, when he went back in the
house.
Chief Nelson and officer VIM. De-
Wing soon came on the scene and
arrested the negro after a stubborn
resistance, the negro having been
shot in the leg by chief Nelson and
himself shot at several times by the
negro.
An examination of the body of
Wilson disclosed the following pistol
wounds. One two inches from the
navel on the right side of the abdo-
men, the ball has been taken out
under the skin in the right side, two
inches from the spinal column a
second bullet wound, two and
three quarter inches above the ma
vel, and the third, four and a half
inches from and in rear of crest of
the illum He also had confusion
over his right eye. His face and
both hands were powder burned and
the thumb Of the right hand grazed
by bullet
Charles Wilson was born and
raised in Shreveport, He was 30
years of age and unmarried. A sad
feature of this homocide was that
it occurred almost in the midst of
the funeral procession that follow
ed Mrs j. Allen to her final rest.
The feeling in the city tonight is
deep and intense and lynch law is
openly talked Of In order to pre-.
vent any violence, if any is attemp-
ted, Sheriff Young has strong
guard of deputies about the jail and
will protect his prisoner at all haz-
ards.

THE TARIFF BILL.

At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon
Senator Voorhees,, as chairman of
the Senate committee on finance
at Washington, ordered the issuance
of a call for a meeting of the full
committee, to be held at the given
hour today,
AS he left the building he said
lhe meeting was for the purpose of
considering the tariff bill, which
would then be submitted He at
the same time reiterated the
statement made on the floor of the
senate that the committee would
be given a few days to consider the
bill as a whole, and that after it
should be reported to the Senate, at
least a week Of additional time would
be permitted for the preparation
of speeches before there would be
an effort to have the bill taken ur
in the Senate,
The Democratic majority of the
finance committee held meetings at
irregular intervals during the day
and when not in formal session
were generally engaged in confer
ence among themselves and with
other Senators. Much of the day
was given up to conferences with
the Senators who are understood tc
desire changes made in the bill, and
during the afternoon Senators Hill

SILVER VICTORIOUS.
Passage of the Bland Seigniorage
Bill Assured in the Senate.

Passage of the Bland seigniOrage
Bill Assured in the Senate.
An exciting and interesting de
bate was precipitated in the Senate
yesterday morning, by a motion,
from Senator Harris, for a second
reading of the Bland seigniorage
bill
This was opposed by Mr. Sherman
who moved its reference to the FL
nance Committee and in the course
of a strong speech in opposition to
the bill, said that its object was to
divert a trust fund from it's legiti-
mate purpose-a thing which in
Ohio would be penitentiary offense,
His motion was defeated, however,
and the bill taken up as unfinished
business and almost before any one
was aware of what had happened,
it passed its third reading and was
on the point of passing the senate,
Then its opponents recovered from
their surprise and endeavored to
prevent its passage,
Senator Harris opened the fight
of the day on the silver question
by moving the second reading of
the Bland seigniorage bill, He gave
notice that when the bill should
have been read the second time he
would move to take it up for con-
sideration, His motive in obieeting
to its consideration yesterday, he
said, was to bridge over the day un-
til he could consult with his Demo-
cratic colleagues as to their action
in regard to the bill
Mr.. Sherman objected to the inn
mediate consideration of the seign-
forage bill, and moved to refer it to
the committee on Finance as he
thought no matter of such import
ance should be reported to the Sen
ate without reference to the FL
nance Committee. The discussion
was taken up by Senators Hale,
Cockrell and Aldrich,
Mr.. Harris, of Tennessee, moved
to take up the seigniorage bill and
and make it the special order of
business, which was agreed to- But
Mr., Sherman's motion to refer it to
the Finance Committee had first
to be acted upon. This was done
and the motion promptly defeat
ed,
The bill was then fairly before
the Senate, but no one appearing
desirious Of speaking on it, it was
read a third time, and before any
one had time to realize, twas about
to be put on its final passage. The
venerable Senator Morrill,, arose
and uttered a warning note. Sen
ator Sherman also sought to check
its passage, being, as he said, "as
much surprised as any one to see
that the Senate of the United
States, which was the greatest de-
Lucrative body in the world, with
out consideration had gone to an
extreme beyond anything since it
was organized in rushing a bill of
this kind through pell nell, refusing
to consider it; refusing to refer,
and now it is proposed to pass bill
without debate"
Having everything in his own
hands and the passage of the bill
being assured, Mr. Harris readily
consented for the bill to go over un-
til today, as the Senator from Ohio
so urgently desired that delay. The
Senate then went into Executive
session, with the pleasing assurance
of a victory for the Seigeiorage
bill before to-day's session shall
