In the morning hour Senator Morgan
sought to have passed a bin providing for
the carrying into effect OF the awards of
:he Paris tribunal of arbitration in the
Boring Sea matter, but when it was on its
passage it went over until it could be
printed. Then the unfinished business,
the bill of Senator Hansbrough for the
destruction of the Russian thistle was laid
before the Senate and Immediately came
in collision with the tariff bill which
Senator VOORHEES, had given notice of his
intention to cali up at this time. SEN
ator Hansbrough asked that the unfinished
business should be temporarily laid aside
in favor of the opening speech on the
tariff without losing its place as unfinished
business, and this led to a motion from
Senator Harris that the tariff bill be made
the unfinished business. While he was
opposed to the bill from the Senator from
North Dakota, he said, if there should be
any gap in the consideration of the tariff
bill he would have no objection to the
Russian thistle bill being taken up. He
would be willing to give the Senator bis
day in court, but he could not offer to let
The great tariff bill play second fiddle TO
the thistle bill. The tariff bill must now
be made the unfinished business or ma
jority of the Senators must declare against
it.
Senator Hansbrough. though defeated,
marched off the field with eolors flying and
bands playing for he announced that
although the thistls bill was aimed at the
protection of agriculture. while the tariff
bill, from his point Of vision. was intended
TO destroy it. yet in view of the present
circumstances he would withdraw his
proposition.
The tariff bill was then made the un-
finished business with the enthusiastic
acclamation of the majority, only few
scarcely heard noes coming frem the Re-
publican side. Mr.. Voorhees, was recog-
nized. He looked around upon a we'll
flied chamber, whose members accorded
him the closest attention. A number OF
Representatives came over from the House
to follow the progress Of the bill and the
galleries were crowded with a attentive
audience. which paid the strictest at.en-

The Great Strike Against Re-

SOME OF THE RIOTERS JAILED.
II Is Now Predicted That Fourteen

UNIoNTowN, Pa, April 2.-The storm
has broken and the scenes of 1891 are
being repeated throughout the coke region
tonight. The coke strike, with its attend
ing destruction of properly. is now in full
force. This morning the call of the Scott
dale convention was obeyed by more than
half the works in the coke-felds and it
took 5000 men from their work. The stu
alton is now one of great peril.
The ranks Of the strikers have been so
reinforced that tonight the lowest esti-
mates give them 10000 men. From the
outset the strike has been turbulent. with
a tendency to open defiance of law. There
was rioting in several quarters last night.
1t has grown steadily worse, and to-day
there was more serious outbreaks in the
end of the field.
The men of the Oliver Works left 1900
tons of coke burning up In the ovens. The
company then to save the property at
tempted to put some non-union men at
work drawing the coke, when the strikers
set on them with stones and clubs. driy-
ing them from the grounds. In the melee
several men were badly hurt.
Ths greatest outbreak was at the
lamOuo I'LL L dIil uIuco. AUUuL HUI lUI-
eigners from Morrell 81 Weller of the
Cambria works armed themselves with
gurs, reyolyers and clubs and started out
to drive the men from the plants. They
first paid visit to the Hum phrey works.
anG. finding the men at work, drove
them away under the muzzles of pistols.
They then visited the Anchor works.
After all the men had beed driven away
the rioters began firing the shanties at
Hill Farm, but desiSted at the frantic en-
treaties of the women and children. Su-
perintendeut Long of the Hill Farm had
some of the Hungarans arrested for at
tempting TO burn the property.
At II O'clock tonight it was reported to
the labor leaders here that the movement
now embraces the entire coke region, and
not a plant will be allowed to operate
without a struggle. The strikers openly
threaten to burn the places rather than see
them operated at present prices for labor,
and il they attempt his loss of life will
certainly follow. By tomorrow the strik-
ers will muster IL. 600 to Il. 600 men, and In
their present state of destituton they are
reckless.
The civil authorities admit that they will
not be able to cope with the strikers.
There was big meeting here tonight.
The foreign element was In virtual CON-
mand. They openly declared it the pur-
pose OF the strikers, as the sense of the
meeting, to drive out every man who may
want to work.

CAUGHT IN A TRAP.
Breckenridge Under the Fire of
Cross-Examination.
Wilson Led Him to DENY the
Writing Of Two Certain
Letters.

WASHINGTON. April Great expecta-
tions have been focused on the cross
examination Of Colonel w. c. P. Breckin-
ridge by ex-Congressman Jere M. Wilson,
particularly here in Washington. where
the abilities of both men are appreci ated.
The expectations began to be realized after
the noon recess to-day when the colonel
was delivered over into the hands of his
opponents. He had continued his story of
the relations with Madeline Pollard
through the morning, entering many and
reiterated denals of various statements
made by her. and relating his own version
of the interviews with the Washington
Chief of Police and of the correspondent ce
between himself and the plaintiff. He had
been testifying for nearly two court days
when his direct examination was finished
and although Mr.. Wilson piled him with
questions all day the cross-examination
has just begun.
1t was expected the colonel would try to
reconcile his reputation as moralist and
a churchman and this expectation was not
a misguided one for his examination took
that direction from the start. The first
time he showed marked embarrassment
during the trial was when an envelope was
handed him with the request that he read
the direction and the contents, which he
reluctantly did, because 1t was an invita-
tion to Miss Pollard in February, 1898, re-
questing the honor of her presence at a
reception to be given in honor of Hon. w. C.
P. Breckenridge at the Norwood Institute.
and the Nor wood Institute is the IN ost ex-
elusive and fashionable seminary for young
ladies in Washington.
An EN- barrassing presum ption which Mr..
Wilson clung to throughout was that the
same standard Of morality should be de-
manded OF men as of women. Finally, at
the close of the day. having secured the
statement that he had written no letters
to Madeline Pollard in 1886. Mr.. Wilson
sprung something very much like trap
by dropping into line of questioning
which indicates that he has in reserve tes-
timony to show that the member from
Kentucky did write two letters through a
typewriter at the Capitol. Then for the
first time the defendant seemed to lose his
temper, and made most strenuous denials.
The typewriter. whose testimony is next
in order, is Miss Louise Lowell, now q
clerk In the Treasury Department.
