Threaten to Blow Up the Town.

This pursuit was rendered all the more
necessary as the riotous quarrymen and
their friends had repeatedly threatened to
return with a supply of dynamite with
which to blow up the police and military
barracks, the municipal buildings and the
residences of all those who supported the
government and the local authorities.
In addition the rioters threatened to blow
up the Fassola bridge, which, with all the
railroad stations and the railroad tracks in
the neigh borhood of the disturbance, was
strictly guarded by police and soldiers, who
had orders to shoot to kill upon the slight
est evidence of an attempt to cause dyna-
mite explosion.
At Massa as we'll as at Carrara there was
a period of terror for the inhabitants from
nightfall until daylight, and the vigilance
OF the authorities was not relaxed for a mo-
ment.
All the inhabitants who had valuables
secreted them, and a number of them man
aged to obtain conveyances and fled from
the disturbed district with all their porta-
BILE belongings.
The government is taking every possible
step to suppress the disorder, but the some
what cOnciliatory action of tine authorities
seems to encourage rather than dishearten
the rioters.
The anarchists are said to have taken up
strong positions behind rocks and other
points of vantage in the hills and to have
made desperate resistance to the troops,
but it is reported that they were finally de-
feated and fed, leaving number of dead
and wounded upon the field.

tempt to Have Their Amendments Con-
sidered - Senator Gray Mentioned For
the Supreme Bench.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-The Hawaiian
controversy was again brought to the at
tention of the senate, and there was half
hours spirited discussion between Sena-
tors Hoar, Gray and Daniels. The presi-
dents message communicating the recent
diplomatic correspondence afforded Sena-
tor Hoar an opportunity to speak on the
matter, and he showed by quoting from
the Hawaiian constitution that the queen,
in her recent protest that she could not
promise amnesty to the members of the
provisional government, was only confin-
ing herself to the limitations of the con-
stitution, which does not confer on the
crown such absolute right of granting
amnesty, but requires that pardon can be
granted only by the concurrence of the
cabinet and other constitutional officers.
Senators Gray of Delaware and Daniels
of Virginia made some pertinent Interrupt
tions and threw upon Minister Stevens and
his initiative actions all the responsibility
fer whatever irregular methods of pro-
cedure had necessarily grown out of the
Hawaiian imbroglio.
The speech of Senator Gallinger of New
Hampshire on the tariff question was at
tentively listened to by his colleagues The
bill to repeal the federal elections law COM
ing up in regular order, Senator Palmer of
Illinois opened the discussion in an argu-
ment in favor of the bill.
Slow Work on the Tariff Bill.
Very little progress was made with the
amendments to the tariff bill. The Re-
publicans, under the leadership of Mr.. Bur-
rows, made another struggle to secure the
right to offer amendments alternately with
Mr.. Wilson, but as on Monday the chair
man held, in view of the precedent of pro-
cedure when the Mckinley bill was under
consideration, that Mr.. Wilson, on behalf
of the majority of the committee, was en-
titled to perfect the bill before it was
thrown open to miscellaneous amendment.
Several minor amendments were agreed
to, the most important being that to in
crease the duty on condensed milk to 2
cents a pound.
Almost the entire afternoon was spent
in discussing the date upon which free
wool and the corresponding reduction on
wool should go into effect No conclusion
was reached.
The closing day of the tariff debate prom
Uses to witness a brilliant display of oratory.
Speaker Crisp has decided to take part and

employed in the marble Quarries at Massa
struck work and threatened to invade the
town. AS it was known that anarchist
agitators had been at work for some time
past among the quarrymen, who are des-
perate class of men and thoroughly famil-
lar with the use of explosives, the strike
caused the greatest alarm at Massa, and
there is no doubt that serious disorder
would have resulted had it not been for the
presence of the troops, who fixed bayonets
and charged upon the disorderly portions
of the mob, forcing them to retreat to the
woods.
Several of these bands who were thus
compelled to seek refuge outside of the
city were thoroughly armed, and it was re-
ported that they had made preparations to
give the soldiers a warm reception should
they be pursued to the hills.
This display of force, however, did not
prevent other mobs from stoning the bar
racks of the troops and of the gendarmes,
from hooting the soldiers and from hurl-
ing rotten eggs and fruit at them. Finally
the soldiers became so enraged that their
officers were compelled to calm them to
the extent of giving orders that volleys
should be fired in the air This had the
necessary effect, for at the first volley the
riotous quarrymen and their friends van
1shed, and the troops started in pursuit of
the armed bands who had been previously
driven out of the CITY

Pitched Battle Fought.

The most sensational news is being wired
here from Carrara. The greatest excite
ment is said to prevail among the inhabit-
ants, who are terrified by the sounds OF
long and fierce firing in the hills near To.
rama, where band of from GOO to 900 an
archists are reported to be fighting pitch
ed battle with a force of infantry and
gendarmes sent to hunt them down.
AS a result of the repeated disorder at
Massa, Carrara and in the ghborhood
of these two cities, it is judged that the
loss of life must have been great, as the in
fantry, according to reports, has been fir
ing volley after volley at the anarchists.
Later dispatches say that the number of
killed during the fight between the mill
tary and the armed band of anarchists
which sought refuge in the hills near Mas
sa is not so great as the people of Massa at
first reported. The official advices state
that only eight of the anarchists were kill
ed and that only from 40 to so were wound
ed. These figures, however, it should be
stated, are the figures given out by the
government authorities, and the people of
Massa claim that at least so of the quarry
men were shot during the engagement.
During the fighting the garrison barred
the highways in order to prevent the entry
of the anarchists into the town.
1t now tranSplreS that an armed band of
anarchists gathered early in the morning
at Torana and awoke the inhabitants by
sounding the tocsin. When the alarmed
inhabitants rushed from their houses, fear
ing Il terrible con1lagration or something
of that description, the anarchists overran
the village meStioned and compelled the
people to deliver up all the arms and am
munition which they had in their posses
sion.
The anarchists then secured all the wine
and spirits procurable and prepared to
march upon Carrara.
The government officials announce that
they control the situation and that they
have a sufficient force at their command to
suppress any rising which the anarchists
may be able to organize.

4 RArTJiSG FIGHT

Over Mt Martins Perry last Sisht-A Ear
Keeper Assaulted.
A lively scrap took place on First
street, in Martins Ferry, last night
about half past eight o'clock. Two
white men and one colored man par.
ticipated. One man was struck above
the eye with a revolver, and one shot
was fired from another revolver without
effect.
81 Young, colored, who has been a
bartender in the Brown Front saloon,
refused on Wednesday to sell o drink OF
whisky to a white man, and this man
and another met Young on First street
last night and proceeded to do him up.
Young tried to get away from them
without having any trouble, blu. one OF
the fellows, go he claims, struck him,
and he returned the blow and then
started to run. One Of the men hit
Young over the left eye with u revolver,
cutting n large cash. Young aud n oil
tho men clinched, ami Young sna,cned
tho revolver from his assailant, after
which he ran away and threw the re-
volvcr into tho gutter. The second
white man followed Young, and, draw
ing bis revolver from his hip pocket,

up First street. The ball passed into
the residence OF Samuel Huskins, and

and Washington streets and lasted un-
til Fayctte was reached. The white
men had been drinking and their names
