NORTHERN PACIFIC HEARING.
Senator Spooner Wants Spofford to
Give Testimony.

NEW YORK, May 12.-In the Northern

The morning call., 1894-04-15

10 have meeting and begin the formula
,ion of the quorum-counting rule. 1t had
been intended not to take up the subject
until next week, but the enforced recess of
this afternoon gave pleny of time to go
over the many plans submitted. Outh-
waite of the committee said that the first
step would be to examine into these vari-
Gus plans with a view TO extracting the
best possible method.
There was evidence OF reaction on the
Democratic side to-day. An undercurrent
of intense hostility to quorum counting
exists and the "A who voted against the
prOi osed rule are a nucleus of this feeling,
and with other members who are arriving
it is estimated that fully a third of the
Democratic membership of the House is
opposed TO the rule. This makes Mr..
Reed the master of the situation when the
rules come before the House, as the Demo-
cratic opponents to the rule and the minor
ity under Mr.. Reed would together form an
opposition strong enough to defeat the
rule. This has made it clear 80 the friends
of the rule that they must shape it to
secure the Republican Endorsement, as
without the Endorsement the caucus
action could never be carried into effect in
the House. There is every evidence that
the elements will come together, however,
as the Democra are now SO fully COM
initted to counting quorum that they do
not feel disposed TO disguise their action,
while on the other hand the Republicans
are ready TO accept anything embodying
the substance Of quorum counting without
quibbling over details.

STILL THEY FILIBUSTER.
Republicans Determined to Force a
Change in the Rules.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-The fact that
the Democratic caucus yesterday decided
TO have formulated a rule providing for
the counting of members present. but not
voting. did not have the effect of inducing
the House Republicans to desist from the
filisbustering they have carried on through
out the week. AS sool as the chaplain
had completed his PRAYER Reed raised the
point of order that the pending question
was the approval of the journal of yester-
day. on which the House was divided
when an adjournment was had.
The Speaker held. however, in accord
aDce with the rule, that the journal must
first be read to officially disclose to the
House the parliamentary status. Reed
did not contest the matter further. but
when the journal Of yesterd VS. proceed
ings had been heard Boutelle objected TO
its approval. Dockery moved its ap-
proval, whereupon Boutelle forced the
ayes and noes. The Republicans declined
TO vote on the amendment-142 to 0-show-
ing that the Democrats were 81 short of a
quorum, and as it was manifestly impossi-
BILE TO make up the deficiency to-day Outh-
waite then moved to adjourn.
The motion was carried and the House

AN UNLIKELY STORY.
Officials Fear an Attempt VIII be
Made to Lynch Heath.

MADE 10 LynCH Ileath'
FRESNO, April 14.-It became known To-
day that the Fresno Jail was guarded last
night because the officials expected an al
tuck by mob with view OF getting out
Dick Heath and lyucbing him.
Early in the eveEing Leon Williams,
one of Heath's attorneys, rode up to
Under Sheriff Barrv's house, and in
thrilling accounts told him 10 arm himself
ana make preparations to receive a mob
from the country, which would come in at
night to lynch Heath.
Berry immediately got seven men. and
arming them with shotguns waited for the
mop, which, of course, did not come.
Heath noticed the presence of armed men.
and suspecting something, asked what it
meant.
lie was told he was not concerned, but
he became very uneasy anu did not sleep
at all that night. People here ridicule
the idea of any attempt to lynch Heath
being made. AS the rumors of lynching
emanated from one source, Heath's
friends, it is believed the purpose is to
create sympathy for the accused and to
prepare the way for asking for a
change of venue. The Jail is guarded
again tonight. The under sheriff says
he put no faith In the report. but is not
willing to take any chances. 1t Is stated
that Judge Webb will or Monday fix
Heath's bond at $4,000, which low figure
will meet with opposition from the prose-
cutioD, who want ii fixed at SAC, 200.

CAPTURED THE TOWN.
Lively Climax to the Festivities in
Los Angeles.

Los ANGELES, April 1.-The Fiesta
proper was ended about o'clock this
morning when the last strains of the dance
at the pavilion had died away.
The desire to be up and doing and en-
joying life while the bumor was there had
restless effect on every one, and by a
sort of mutual agreement they agreed to
go out on the street tp-night en- masse TO
literally capture the town and all that was
In it by making them part and parcel of
themselves. In this purpose they were
successful. Nearly every one caught the
spirit precisely as did his neighbor, and
both garbed themselves in grotesQue cos
tunes and sailed forth to ''do the town."
They impaired bright, lurid, carmne
hue to everything. 1t seemed as though
ten of the usual Saturday night crowds
had been compassed to that of tonight
But it was good-natured jostle and even
the hitherto retiring dispositions were
laid away on the shelf at home and their
affectators joined the gay crowds that
passed and repassed on Spring street.

SAN BERNARDINo, April 14.-In re-
sponse to a call from Cotton for help
Sheriff Booth, with fOrty-eight deputies,
armed with shotguns. went to Cotton early
this morning to arrest the army of the un-
employed.
After leaving this city about 9 o'clock
last evening the army marched TO Cotton,
and, in the night, took possession of a
Southern Pacific freight train. The engi-
neer sidetracked the train and refused TO
haul the men.
Upon the arrival of Sheriff Booth and
his posse the army was ordered to get off
cars, which command they refused to obey.
A hOsecart was then drawn out and
water from the city wateT-works was
turned on the men, drenching them to the
skin. They stood their ground. however,
aud did not move until the entire army
was placed under arrest.
Captain Vinette and several lieutenants
were then placed on the motor pre- paratory
to taking them 10 the County Jail.
At this juncture II was agreed to let
Captain Vinette and his lieutenants go
back to the men If they would agree to
march out of the county. Captain Vinette
then took a vote Of the army on the Ques-
tion Of walking out. but TO a man, almost,
they refused to go unless they could ride
on the cars. They said they preferred to
eat at the expense of the county.

of six each day, and as fast as let out start
them back over the line on which they
came into the county.
During the day quite large number of

1876 out Of the 260 in camp last night can
be accounted for to-day. II is understood
that the officers of the army now under
arrest will be released when their men
cross the county line on their march out of
the county.
Company E of the Ninth Regiment is
still in their armory. standing ready to 60
to Cotton when called upon. The depot
at Cotton and all trains and cars standing
there will be guarded Tonight by an armed
force of men, probably re-enforced by
Company E Of the Ninth Regiment.
During the day the streets of the city
have been crowded with people from the
surrounding country desir0us 70 learn the

Arrangements have been made with Gov

thus ending raids upon domestic indus
tries. The Wilson bill was supported by
Democrats, who formerly Irotested against
its destructive effects on the industries of
their constituencies, because it was a
Democratic measure. Should the bill be-
come a law grave monetary problem will
confront the American people. We may
accept the money standard, but foreign
commercial policy cannot be appended to
foreign financial policy with the sacrifice
of autonomy and a return of colonial
dependence upon Great Britain. Bimetal-
lism he claimed possible only by agree

duced some proposed amendments to the
rules, and Senator PETER offered a resolu-
tion giving Coxey's army hearing.

ST, PAUL. April 1.-THE Great North
ern strike is still on, and nc movement has
been made by either side for an adjust
ment Of the differences which caused it.
There is no indication that the strike will
receive the cooperation OF any employees
east Of Minot 1t is generally conceded
that the teegraphic reports from the West
regarding the nature and size of the strike
are exaggerated. The reason why so little
information can be received from the seat
OF war is because the operators on tne
Greal Northern wires are the ouly ones in
that section of the country. The operators
and the trainmen are said to be voluntarily
on a strike. The sentiments of the com.
pany are embodied in the following bull
letin:
Saturday, April IA, 1894-On the Mon
tana and Kalispel divisions of the Great
Northern Railway and on the Montana
Central Railway the trains have been
abandoned by reason of number of the
men quitting work, the only notice being
received few hours before such abandon
ment from party who is not and never
has been in the company's employ and
without any complaint or notice from the
men.
The main reason given to the company
for this action Is claim and report
widely circulated by interested parties
that all employees on those lines are to be
replaced by strange men from the East
This report is and was entirely untrue and
was made for the purpose of intimidation
and misrepresenting the company to the
men.
1t is the expectation and wish OF the
company that all employees will continue
in the faithful discharge of their respective
duties, and the company will say that In
all matters of wages. promotion, ETC., sueh
faithful services will be considered both
as to rates of pay and line OF promotion.
The company is at all times ready to con-
slider any complaint of the men in its en-
ploy.
