DENVER, Feb Ex-Governor Waite
delivered a free trade speech before the
wool growers convention this morning
He declared that all tariff laws were
vicious, but if the country cannot exist
without law of this kind, all articles
should be taxed alike. He declared
that the only feature Of the Wilson bill
worthy of serious consideration was
the income tax clause, which he feared
would be killed before the bill became
law.
AT the conclusion of the governor $
remarks resolution was adopted de-
nouncing the theory of free trade as un
just, as under such law over 1,000, ,00(
WOO. growers in the country would bs
ruined while only 1000 wooden manu-
facturers could be benefited; free WOO
would not cheaper clothing but would
deprive the American laborers of the
opportunity to earn their daily bread.

In the Senate.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-The senate did
not come to vote on the federal cleo
ton bill today as anticipated. Several
senators who had not hitherto spoken
desired'an opportunity to be heard and
by unanimous consent the time for
general debate was extended until 8
O'Clock tomorrow.
The chief event of the day was a
speech by Frye defending the official
course of Chief Supervisor Davenport of
New York and refuting the alleged
ISLANDERS and calumny which he said
had been heaped upon him by the
Democratic party for twenty years.
Speeches were also made by Harris,
Daniels, Turpie and Perkins.
Senator Allen introduced bill re-
pealing all laws enacted relating to the
coinage or use of silver since January l,
1878, and to re-enact all laws relating
to silver and in force previous to that
by authorizing and directing the issue
of United States legal tender notes and
to prohibit the further use of United
States interest bearing bonds.
Senator Pettigrew introduced an
amendment to be offered by him to the
Wilson tariff bill providing for the ap-
pointment of a commission of five per-
sons to be known as a customs COM
mission. The duty proposed for the
commission is to gather data concern
ing tariff rates and their effect on in
dustries in this and other countries and
to report their findings to congress. All
the members were present at today's
discussion. The meeting was regarded
as OF infficient Importance to prevent the
president and Secretary Gresham from
attending the funeral of ChiIds.

By the Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-At a meeting
of the National Woolgrowers Associa'
ton today the following resolutions
were adopted:
WHEREAS, The National Woolgrowers
Association, representing an industry
in which are directly interested and en-
gagged 100000 people in the United
States owning and caring for Al
100000 sheep with q directly
invested capital of over $4,000, ,00C
and indirect investments of $3,000,-
600 more, is desirous of being
heard in the interest of the sheep and
wool industry which it is believed is
seriously threatened even to it's COM
plete annihilation by the proposed
legislation by the Wilson bill, so called
now in the senate finance committee,
therefore,
ResolUed, That the association respect
fully requests that time be set apart
and date soon given in which we may
appear through committee duly ap-
pointed to present our cause for con-
sideration to the honorable committee.
In reply to the petition Voorhees,
said the commission had determined tc
give no verbal hearings and it would
not be possible to make an exception in
the case of the wool grow ers. He sug-
gested that the association submit a
written statement. The members of
the association will remain in the city
for week or more and probably en-
deavor to influence senators personally
being denied formal hearing.

until Auctioneers LudingtOn and Eastou
had alternately begged aud threatened for
a bid somewhere near what the canvas
was really worth. 1t was equivalent to
giving them away, but true to their prom
ise made at the opening of the sale the
aueti0neerS refused nothing, providing, of
course, il was not ridiculOusiy small But
their artistic instincts rebelled at the
thought of sacrificing MANY of the larger
gems ranged about the walls, and the sale
of the majority of these WAS postponed
until evening, when it was hoped that the
merchants and mOneyed admirers of art
would attend and show their apprecia ton
more substantially than had been done
during the afternoon.
1t was a source of woDderment to tho SO
who attended the sale how such a vast
collection of assorted treasures could have
been accommodated in an ordinary dwell
Ing-h0use such as was occupied by Mrs.
johnson. Ii required a catalogue of one
and seevnty pages TO describe the various
articles, aud the hall in which they were
arranged for exhibition was found to be
too small TO do them justice, so far as
artistic arrangement is concerned. The
stage con tanned three mammoth oil paint

main entrances were rare specimens of the

Howard street. and the hero of the fight
was his young assistant, Edward Geyn.
GeyD and Adams were working in the
cellar at . o'clock in the morning when
the young nan thought he heard footsteps
in the apartment over his head in which
Mrs. Adam and her cousin. Adele Ankel,
were Seeping. He called his employers
attention TO the sounds and they listened
ntenty for few moments. There was
nc mistake. The footballs were heavy and
distinct and as Mrs. Adam and her com
paniOn wore light shoes the listeners knew
that neither of them was stirring in the
room overhead.
Geyn ran out of the cellar and up the
steps leading 10 the back door of the house.
The door stood ajar, and in the dim light
he observed that hole had been cut near
the bolt large enough 20 admit a hand.

bedroom by heavy curtains, and peeDing

In the darkness he ran against the
burglar and dropped the revolver on the
floor. The rObber struck at him with a
long sheath-knife and Slashed his right
wrist Young Geyn tried to seize his
assailant by the throat and received a
staggering blow that landed him on the
floor beside his lost weapon. The thief

The boy. with the revolver in his hand,
dashed after the burglar and fred two
shots as the man descended the rear steps.
They apparently had no effect, and the
criminal clambered over fence and made
his escape.
The sleeping women were aroused by
the first report of the pistol and added
their cries to the shouts of the bakers and
the noise made by the discharge of the
pistol. The apartment was thoroughly
searched, but the burglar had left no
clew to his identity behind with the excep-
ton of the long knife, which is now i'll the
possession of the police. The robber had
his labor for his pains.

The Pacific Coast Association, Native
Sons of Vermont. gave a complimentary
benefit at Odd Fellows Hall last evening,
at which probably 1000 or 1900 members
OF the organization and their friends were
present. The audience, in fact, almost
filled the lower floor and made very re-
spectacle showing in TIE gallery. This
entertainment was one of monthly series
which the society Is now engaged in Civ
ing. Blum's orchestra opened with an
overture and Angie VERGE sang a pretty
waltz song entitled, Only Year" re-
spending TO call for an encore. A
whistling solo by Miss Sadie LiDoey, ac-
cOmpanied By A. A. Batkin, was a novel
number which caught the fancy OF the
audience and received a recall. 'My
Dreams" by Andrew Bryant, met with a
reception which must nave been very
gratifying to that gentleman, and he re-
Sponded 10 the demands for more by giving
the sill popular Sweet Marie" which he
was compelled TO repeat.
Miss Ethel Brandon made her first ap-
pearance OIL the stage this year in a reci,a-

full OF enthusiasm, not subsiding fully
until second selection had been given.
The Enlian Quartet. consisting of Miss
Mile Flynn and Miss Stella Leis, So

Ethel Garfield, altos, closed the musical
portion OF the programme, and n one-act

entertainment. Many dancers then took
the floor and held sway until midnight.

The annual review of the Boys Brigade
took place in the Mechanics Pavilion last

Each company acquitted itself well, and
they were so evenly matched that the
committee decided not to award the prize
until to-day. The prize Is an elegant silk

The exercises were concluded by an IT,

the various companies entered the contest,
and as fast as soldier made mistake no
