1t Comes Up in the Debate the In
dian Appropriation Bill
WASHINGTON, June I5.-In the house
yesterday an amendment by Mr..
Picker, appropriating So, 900 for arte-
sian wells at Pine Ridge, Rose bud and
Standing Rock age ncies, was agreed to.
A bitter personal attack was made
on Mr.. Holman by Mr.. Johnson of In
diana, who alluded to the influences
which had operated to have Mr..
Sayres appointed chairman of the
committee on appropriations over
older men on the cOmmittee-Mr. Hol-
man-and had resulted in the latter
getting control of but one appropria-
ton bill instead of all He asserted
that the habit of this ''small and
penurious man" (Mr. Holman) of
Juggling" with the Indian apprOpri-
alton bill would soon result in the
determination of the Indian, which
purpose he believed was at the bot
tom of his assignment to the chair
manship of the committee on Indian
affairs
p During all this TRADE Mr.. Holman
sat quietly in his seat, giving no in
dication of having heard a word. A
long debate was precipitated on an
anne ndment by Mr.. johnson of Indi-
ana, raising the salary of the super
intendent of Indian schools from
So, 500 to IS, 900. The amendment was
defeated.
The old sectarian question in con
nection with Indian schools was raised
by Mr.. Gear, who offered an amend
ment providing: 1T is hereby de-
clared that it is the purpose of this
act that no money herein appropriated
shall be paid for education in sectar-
ian schools, and the secretary of the
interior is hereby authorized and re-
quired to make all needful rules and
regulations to prevent the use of said
funds in sectarian schools"
"A point of order was made against
this amendment by Mr.. Tracey, on
the ground that it changed existing
law, and the chair sustained the point.
The house then adjourned.

MANY SENATOR'S TALK.
Representative Holman Scored
in the House.

WASHINGTON, June 15.-SOme rOu-
tine business preceded the resumption
of the tariff debate in the senate yes
terday. Bills were passed as follows:
To pay Joseph Redfern, one of the
Ford theater victims. 50, 74s; to au-
thorize the appointment of women as
public school trustees in the District
of Columb ia; for the development and
encouragement of silk culture in the
United States; to pay the heirs of
James Bridger $4,000. A bill for the
relief of the heirs of John Weight
man, passed some time ago, was on
motion of Mr.. Quay considered and
recommitted-
When the tariff bill was laid before
the senate, Mr.. Lodge took the floor
with an argument against free wool.
Mr.. Teller of Colorado followed Mr.
Lodge with some remarks in favor of
a duty on raw wool. In the course of
his speech he read a statement from
the New York Tribune to the effect
that 1.-The Senatorial auctiOneers," in
order to save the sugar schedule and
pass their bills, had traded off pro-
hibitOrv duties on cotton and wOolens-
Mr.. Vest Joined Mr.. A1drich in an
emphatic denial that there had been
any bargains to obtain prOhibitory
duties. Later, while discussing the
reduction of the rates on woolens.
Mr.. Hawley interrupted Mr.. Teller
to remark that these reductions
would result inevitably in lower
ing the wages of the operatives 80 or
40 per cent-it was ''either a reduc-
ton of wages or the manufacturers
would quit"
They will not quit" replied Mr..
Teller ssThey have too much capital
involved. They will reduce wages,
and the operatives. faced with starva-
ton. Will stand the reduction. Men
who live by their labor can not make
a successful contest against capital"
Mr.. Hoar, as one of the representa-
tives of the great wooden manufac-
the statements made that the New
England manufacturers did not desire
free wool. by the vote, bargain or
silence of their personalities in
congress-
Mr.. Platt Of Connecticut followed
with an argument along the line of
that of Mr. HOar, denying like the
Massachusetts senator, that the
wooden manufacturers favored free
wool. They believed in protection as
entirely for all alike
Mr.. Higgins of Delaware followed
in opposition to free wool
Mr.. Chandler talked for an hour in
favor of ample protection to wool and
woOlens-
Mr.. Dolph followed with an argu-
ment against free wool During the
progress of his speech he remarked
that it was whispered about the SEN
ate that the opposition to the bill had
sure ndered and that the bill would
pass before the end of the present
month If he could prevent it, he de-
clared the bill would not be voted
upon until the people had had
chance to give an expression of their
opinion at the general elections next
fall. At 6:15 the senate adjourned.

in their unjust and unpatriOtic dis
elimination against the in terests of

ASKED To RESIGN.
Miner Leaders Called Upon to
Step Down.
Rank and File Seems to be
Against Compromise.
A CONFERENCE JUNE 10
A. A. Adams Talked Of for the
New Leader.

COLUMBUS. Ohio, June 15.-PresidenN
A A Adams of the Ohio Miners asso-
citation District No. 81 issued a call
yesterday for q meeting of miners
in Columbus, Tuesday, June 1e. He
asks the miners to select their best
men to represent them, as business of
vast Importance will have to be acted
upon. President McBryde of the
National Miners association states
that unless the compromise is ac-
cepted by the miners that a general
meeting will be called, at which the
national officers will tender their res
ignations. McBryde gives it as his
opinion that unless the Ohio miners
accept the agreement they will be
compelled to go back to work at 40
cents ton instead of 60.
The national officers formerly treat
ed Adams and his theories with con-
tempt, but since he has so strong a
following and Endorsement of his
course on the agreement, he is recog-
nized as fOrmida bic factor. Presi-
dent McBryde recognizes the impor-
lance of giving the Adams movements
more than passing attention
Adams tele graphed j. W. Murray,
vice president of the Illinois miners,
that the executive board signed over
his head; that the men would not &C
cept the compromise, ana asking him
to stand firm. Murray, at the recent
NEE ting, refused with Adams to sign
the scale. The harmony of action be-
tween these two, together with the
fact that the miners are following
Adams, holding meetings and de-
manding the resignation of the ma
tiOnal officers, leads to the conclusion
that Adams is getting in line to fill
McBry0e's place should the latter re-
sign. McBryde claims that the action
of the executive board in signing the
scale was in accord with the views of
the district presidents, of whom
Adams was one.
