all the senate and house members,
both democratic and republican, pres

only about an hour An adjournmen I
was then taken until o'clock Wednes-
day.
I'm this conference the features OF
disagreement were gone into at con-
siderable length by Senator Voorhees,
and his associates They stated that
the sugar coal, metal, wooden and cot
ton schedule had been the chief bones
of contention. but did not give partic-
ulars in any case except in that Of
sugar. with reference TO which they
stated that the house members had in-
dicated willingness TO grant some
duty on that article, but had objected
to the dificrential duty on refined
sugar
ON the other articles which had been
the source OF disagreement Senator
Voorhees, and other democratic mem
bers of the conference contented them
selves with saying that the democratic
conferrees OF the two houses had con
tended each side for its own bill This

CHICAGO, July 10 Eugene V. Debs,
George w, Howard, Sylvester Keliher
and l.. w. Rogers, respectively prcsi-
dent, v.c ,president, secretary and di-
rector Of the American Railway union,
were summoned on Tuesday before
Judge Seaman, of Milwaukee, of the
United States circuit court, To answer
10 the charge OF contempt in refusing
TO obey the injunction restraining in
reference with interstate commerce
traffic, and they elected TO be locked
up rather than give SO, 200 bail for APP
pearance.
The information In the document
was confined almost entirely 10 a num-
Der OF kilograms sent by Debs 10 his
lieutenauts, such as: Tie mp all roads
that insist on handling boycotted
cars Get Rock Island out i'm all

OF sight-managers weakening" 1T
win take more than injunctions TO
move trains, (sent the day after the
injunction was issued.)
Mr.. Debs' attorneys asked for con-
tinuance Of the hearing for ten days in
order 10 allow them time 10 prepare
proper answer TO the information and
possibly to test the question Of juris-
diction. Mr.. Gregory called attention
20 the fact that the defendants are al
ready under bonds for appearance in
court, and declared that IL would be a
hardship for them TO give additional
security for appearance
Mr. Walker desired prompt hear
ing OF the case upon its merits, and
suggested that, as the presiding judge
would probably want to get away
from the bench AS early as possible
this hot weather, as did the attorneys.
the case could be taken up on Thurs
day morning and be disposed OF during
the present week Further opposition
20 this proposition being interposed
by the counsel for the defense, Judge
Seaman said he would set the hearing
for Monday.

said II would go on just the same. IL

Took AN Oath OF FeaIty.
Richard Powers stood before $500
persons at Bricklayers' hall Sunday
night and bound the assembly by a sol
emn oath TO renounce the two old POI
litical parties and espouse the cause
OF the peoples party. The scene was
dramatic in the extreme. The speaker
had just finished an arraignment OF the
two political machines. which he
blamed for the present depressed con
dition of the country. Then he told
the assemblage TO repeat the oath after
him.
"With my hand uplifted"-the null
titude roared the sentence be-
fore the everlasting Godl' The audi
ence repeated after the speaker. and
the noise had scarcely ended before he
continued: 81 renounce all PARTIES"
The rest was drowned in the shouting.
Every hand in the hall was held high
and the rest OF the oath was lost in
the noise. IL was an Endorsement of
the peoples party.
AZ this same meeting resolutions
were adopted hailing with Joy the
action OF the trades union, the farm
ers' alliance, the single-taxers, the So
cialists and populists in joining hands
in common effort 20 restore the lib
critics Of the people by means OF the

allegiance 10 either the democratic or
republican party; declaring in future,
as trade unionists, socialists, fedora

action, and that TO make a straight
fight in accordance with this resolu-
ton they would rally under the ban

BURIED ALIVE.

Some persons have been disposed
to doubt that the horrible outrages
perpetrated upon our people In this
country were true.
And yet Thursday, August 23d,
1894, near Lexington, KY, white
man named ROBERT TUCKER caught
an old colored man named ANDY
MARTIN, who Is sixty FIVE years of
age, and endeavored to force him TO
tell about the murder of his son
which had occurred In that neigh
borhood.
The old colored man knew nothing
about it and could tell nothing.
Accordingly Tucker, assisted by an
other white man named ScoTT VAN
METER took this colored man to an
orchard, dug a grave, pinioned his
arms and legs and buried him alive
for nearly twenty minutes. They
threatened him with death should he
tell any thing about it.
The colored man Is In precariout
condition as a result of this treat
inent and the white men have been
arrested.
Ia this case the horrors OF the
Middle Ages have been out-done.
Here, in the 10th century, with thu
refulgent beams OF the twentieth
to be seen In the distance, a coloree
man Is buried alive by white mel
who lay claim to the Christianiz
ing influences of civilization.
| When will the end come
The awful sufferings OF that oil
man can never be fully realized. Ir
nocent he was-his enemies conced
: that, aud yet he was subjected to
: torture which was too inhuman t
be perpetrated upon the meanes
criminal.
81 1t Is sad commentary upon OF

] ticuIars Is radically weak and ths

REFUSED TO SIGN THE BILL.

President CLEVELAND declined to
sign the Senate Tariff Bill passed
by the members of his party in the
Congress of this United States, and
although the measure has become a
law, the ten-day limit having expir-
ed, he administered a most telling
rebuke to his party.
To say that after all of these
months of weary toll, and patient
waiting tariff bill should have been
passed which the head of the organi-
zation could not countenance or en-
dorse Is to make more ridiculous the
position of the Democratic party
and To stamp indelibly apon its face
the brand of incompetency.
But why is this bill so obieetiona--
BILE and what are the Ills which come
with 1t 1t sacrifices the principle
of free raw materials by allowing g
low rate OF duty upon coal and iron
ore.
In this, 1t Is tacitly admitted that
the Republican McKIELEY Bill Il
right in principle, and the iervid ora
tory of the Democratic orators goes
for naught. The Democratic leader
denounced the Sugar Trust, q com
pany OF men who control the suga
interest OF the United States. Ant
yet the same leaders In the Senate en-
grated in this Democratic Tariff bll
a tax which will give to this sam
trust fourteen million dollars as
starter.
