WASHINGTON, May k-Friday way
payday in the house of representa-.
tives. The members of the house had
been fling their pay certificates with
Sergeant-at-arms Snow for the last
two days. There have been few com.
plants about the rule which requires
members to state the number of days
they have been absent deductions be-
ing made from their salary, but none
of the representatives have refused to
comply with the law.
Representative Stone, of Pennsyl-
vania, has reached the conclusion that
the sergeant-at-arms has no author
ity under existing law to deduct pay of
members. Mr.. Apsley, of Massachu.
chusetts, on the other hand, is in favor
of making the law retroactive, and he
talks about offering resolution re-
quiring members to refund the pay re-
ceived by them for all days they have
been absent without leave since 1866.
Representative Stone (rep, Pa.) fled
the views of four members of the mi-
nority of the committee on judiciary as
to the status of section 40. revised stat
utes, requiring the deduction of MEM
bers' pay for the time they are absent
except on account of illness. Mr.. Ray
rep, N. W, not agreeing with either
majority or minority, was given leave
to present his views Monday.

are 1000 strikers in camp at this plant

men in the yard and twenty in
the pit which leaves the works
in crippled condition. The
strikers are iubilant over the fact that
they have succeeded already in keeping
away the greater part of the force from

join the strikers the victory is claimed
to be won and the operators will have
to succumb to the scale adopted by the

Strikers Attack Tt Fill Works and

Trouble to he Expected when Efforts Are
Made TO Enforce Eviction Noticcs-The
Proposed Attack of the Strikers on
tho Meyer Works is Abandoned.

CoNNELIsvILLE, Pa, May ALL the
large coke companies are now serving
ten days eviction notices on the strils-
ing miners who occupy company
houses. Trouble is expected when
efforts are made to enforce these
notices.
The other companies have served
notice on the strike leaders that unless
Rainey's works are shut down within
q few days, they will start up regard-
less of expense or results. The leaders
are becoming alarmed, and will try to
bring the Rainey men out
The movement began Wednesday
evening. A large mob in charge of the
organizers camped Wednesday night
near the Ft Hill works. At daybreak
Thursday morning they moved on the
works. After a short conflict, in which
several were badly beaten, they fed.
The shutdown at the Fort Hill works
will force the Quincy plant to suspend
work, as the Fort Hill mines furnish
both companies with coal.
This mob is now encamped near the
St Paul works, and will make an at.
tack Friday morning. They will then
move on the Cochran works in that
vicinity, and close them down one by
one. Another large mob moved to at
tack the Meyer works.
The company hastily collected dep
uties from all the other works at Meyer.
When the strikers were ready for the
attack they found eighty armed men
patrolling the works, and they gave
up the attack.
1t now looks as though all Rainey's
works will be closed down Friday.

what Brother-in-Law Scott knows.


PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, May =
Judge Scott, brother-in-law of Gen.
Harrison, with whom he recently spent
several weeks in California, says; 1.-The
ex-president expressed himself as not
being a candidate on the republican
ticket Harrison said the republican
nomination was equivalent to an cleo
tion, but on account of family afflic-
tions he was not anxious to enter the
contest for another term, although I
believe if the nomination was rendered
him he would accept and make the
campaign, but he is too shrewd and re-
served and calculating to allow his
friends to announce his candidacy two
years in advance of the assembling of
the nominating convention if he want
ed the nomination"

CoNNELLsvILLE, Pa, May 5.-The sit
nation was very alarming in this Sec
tion Friday night. Mobs assembled in
the Vanderbilt region and at the Meyer
plant preparing for an attack Saturday
morning. The companies have armed
a large force of men and are prepared
to repulse any attack. The Dunbar
Furnace Co. will attempt to fire up
Hill Farm plant Saturday morning.
The Painter riot has stirred up the
foreign element. The Huns and Slavs
are maddened at the slaughter of their
countrymen and have become blood
thirsty. They have resolved upon re-
venge. One of the leaders admitted
Friday evening that the most bloody
scenes are yet to come. The excite
ment is almost as intense as that
which followed upon the death of Pad
dock.

WASHINGTON. May T.-The house
committee on railways and canals has
shown signs of termination, and is
now meeting regularly. The most im-
portant measure that has been con-
sidered by the committee for many
years is the project for ship
canal between Lake Erie and
the Ohio river At a meeting the COM
mittee decided to report favorably the
proposition to appropriate $4,000 for
a preliminary survey. The points
from which the survey is to project and
to which it is to extend are not named,
but they will probably be Erie at one
end of the line, and Pittsburgh, or the
vicinity of Pittsburgh at the other.
The report will be made to the house
next Thursday.

WASHINGTON, May s-In the house
of representatives Wednesday Mr.. John.

privilege, offered the following resolu,
ton:
Whereas, II is we'll known that the capitol
grounds were on May overrun by large as
semblngo OF people, including considerable
number Of the regular ind special police Of the
district, and,
Whereas, 1t is publicly stated that the safety
" the members Of this house has been endan
sercd thereby, making 1t necessary for the
house to rely on the clubs Of the policemen FOL
their protection,
Resolved, That the committee on publit
buildings and grounds be instructed to inquire
into the question as to whether unnecessary
force was used; whether unofYending citizens
were cruelty beaten and whether the dignity oi
this house has been violated; that the commit
tee have the power to send for persons and pa,
pers, and report the facts in connection witt
this subject with their recommendations as ts
whether any legislation is necessary in the
premises.
MIR. outhwaite (Dem., o. suggested
that the resolution presented no ques.
Viou VI privilege.
In support of his contention that il
was matter of privilege, Mr.. johnson
said that in the sight of members OF
the house, within the shadow of the
capitol, citizens were cruelty and un.
necessarily beaten, and he asked that
it be investigated, believing that the
whole proceedings directly and vital.
ly affected the dignity Of the house,
1t was disgraceful, he said, that such 6
thing could occur. In presenting the
resolution, Mr.. johnson said he was
not moved by any sympathy with the
purposes or aims of the Coxey army.
The speaker asked how that present
ed question of privilege. Those peo'
pie were violating the law.
Mr.. johnson responded that he be.
lieved it to be a question of the very
highest privilege.
The speaker suggested that the mat.
ter should be investigated in the po.
lice court or other tribunal estab b.
lished for that purpose, but the resolu-
tion did not present question of priv.
ilege.
Mr.. johnson asked unanimous con.
sent for immediate consideration of the
resolution, but this was refused by sew
eral members.

THE CLoTURE

Senate
WASHINGTON, May 3.-A petition has
been put in circulation in the senate
among democrats demanding that a
cloture rule be prepared. The paper is
supposed to be in the keeping of Sena-
tor Berry. 1t is understood that very
few are showing disposition to sign
it. 1t meets with vigorous opposition
from some of the most prominent dem.
ocrats. Senator Cockrell, for one, is
openly against the enforcement of clio.
ture.
The measure, in fact, is popular main
ly with the younger members of the
senate. Those who have served a long
term of years do not approve it. A
prominent democrat predicts that tho
attempt will never culminate in any.
thing more than talk. One of the most
active opponents of cloture is Senator
Stewart, who is quoted as saying that
the talk of cloture in connection with
any measure is a confession of the in
herent weakness of that measure.

orders having been issued by the war
department of the army regarding the
commonwealers who are marching to
Washington from different points of
the compass. 1T Is unfortunate" said
he, "that these men, whatever may be
their condition or their suffering, have
adopted the name army There is only
one army in this country. All Ameri-
can citizens have the right to petition
congress, but it is unfortunate that
they have adopted the plan of organic
ing men into companies, giving some
of them the titles to which they have
no rights and organizing pseudo mill
tary courts to try offenders. All this
savors of a menace toward congress,
and tends to create prejudice against
their cause in congress and the Ameri.

The barn and contents, including
