Topeka, Kan, Feb. 9.--The National
Fclmers' Alliance convention has been in
secret session all day. The morning ses-
sion did not adjourn until o'clock. AMI
mated discussion took place over the
question of financial plank, the dele
gates being divided. some for free sill
ver, some for grcenbacks free and uE-
limited and few opposed to both. No
conclusion was rc"clled. This afternoon
the secret session discussed tn. woman
suffrage plank Oh which the delegates
are also divided. 1t is thought Il resoln-
tion will be passed simply suggesting to
the various state alliances that the suf-
fnRe question should be widely discussed
pro and con in the campaign.

Washington, Feb. q. - The federal
elections repeal bill occupied the entire
session of the senate. Senator Chandler
concluded his speech, which has extended
through the past two op three weeks,
and was followed by Senator Palmer.
who argued the law, having entirely
failed of its purpose, and being generally
obnoxious, should be repealed. An ami
mated controversy of the franchise quail
fications of the state con .titutions of
Mississippi and Massachusetts took place
between Senators Frye aud Hoar on one
side and Senators Gray and Bate on the
other. The ANAL vote is to be taken on
the bill this afternoon.
The Hawaiian debate again occupied
the attention of the house. The debate
Is attracting much less attention than
was anticipated. This is perhaps partly
due to the abandonment of the policy
Of restoration of the administration and
partly to the fast that the long tariff
debate hns surfeited the house. The vote
will be taken late this afternoon.
Congressman McGann introduced a
resolution directing the judiciary cun,-
mittee to investigate Judge .Tcnkins' lie.
cisioa by which employees of the Northern
Pacific were interdicted from striking.
It recites that all employees have right
to quit work at any time, and that thu
net of congress of 1886 made labor
unions lawful. 1t then rccites the stor:.
Of the Northern Pacific reduction. The
preamble denies that a strike was
threatened, and the resolution directs a
speedy investigation of the whole case.
Only four members were present last
night when Mr.. Hall Dem. Mimi began
to speak in support of the administra zion.
\ half-dozen others came in subsequently
and there was considerable attendance in
the galleries. Mr.. Hall charged that the
revolution was the result of a con-
spiracy made possible by the covert aid
Of Mr.. Stevens and the presence of the
United States troops. He endorsed the
policy of the administration in Its at.
tenpt to right the rong done the queen
Though the connivance of the United
States Minister. As the facts grew
clearer, said he, public sentiment will
place in every honest hand whip with
which to scourge j. L. Stevens through
the land.
