Warrington. March 30.-Yesterday
was BY far the most exciting day the
house has witnessed since the tarin
debate began. The proceedings through
out were OF lively order. and several
times bordered on the sensational. The
Democrats blocked proceedings in the
nrst instance by demanding the
presence Of a quorum before allowing
any legislative work. Richardson Of
fered dilatory motions. but finally with
arew them saying: Let the oth-r side
work out its own puzzle"
There Is no puzzle" remarked the
speaker. except the Incidence Of mem-
bers.''
I'VE have as many present on this
side as the majority has," observed
Richardson.
At this point Dingley moved the APP
prevail Of the journal and after an hour
and twelve minutes delay it was
30 ordered by 222 to 1. On re-
sumption Of the consideration Of
the tariff bill Dingley announced that
the ways and means committee had sew
eral amendments, one Of which placed
a duty OF 81 per ton on bauxide, not
refined. In answer to a question by
Wheeler Grosvenor replied that a strong
appeal had come up from Georgia and
Alabama for protection to this article.
There were vast deposits In those two
states. sufficient to supply the world.
New Purpose Of Protection.
Dockery said this was q novel PROPOSE
ton. Heretofore, he said, protection
was accorded to equalize labor condi-
tons: now for the first time it was
proposed to equalize freight rates. Dali
cell denied that any new doctrine was
Involved IN according protection to
bauxide. Labor was at the base of
freight rates, and the theory of Fro
lection was now and always had been
to eQualize labor conditions. Amend
ments were adopted increasing the rate
on common yellow and brown earthen-
ware" etc. from 20 to Is per cent ad
valorem. "Cylindered and crown glass

Protests Against the Obstruction.
Shafroth (silver Rep.) of Colorado in
weighed against obstruction, declaring
that the failure Of the tariff bill in the
house or senate would be the most
disastrous blow that could be struck
at silver. The tariff bill should be
passed and the issue clearly drawn be-
tween gold and silver.
A somewhat sensational scene oc-
CURED at this juncture, which neces-
stated the summoning of Speaker Reed
from his room. johnson Of Indiana en-
tered an exceedingly vigorous protest
against the irrelevant discussions with
which the time Of the house was being
taken up. and after Sherman of New
York, who was in the chair, had ruled
him out Of order he continued to pro-
test. Then the chair ordered him to
take his seat. Twenty times the irate
1ndianian was admonished to take his
seat. but continued his defiance. The
greatest confusion prevailed. The speak
er was hurriedly summoned. johnson
continued to stand defiantly In his
place.

Correspondent OF the Chicago Record Shot
Dead in the Field. ~
Havana, March 30.-The correspondent
Of the Associated Press says that G. e.
Crosby. the correspondent Of the Chi
cago Record. reached Havana on IAN.
30. He took tine field on Feb. 10, going
through Camajuai Villas. On the 9Th
Of March he reached the camp Of Gen.
eral Gomez. and the same day was
Killed at Juan CriolIi. near Arroyo
Bianco. An engagement was in progress
and Crosby received bullet IN the FORE
head. Both was instantaneous. His
clothing. watch and money are now in
the possession OF General Gomez, who
gave the body an honorable burial At
the time OF his death Crosby was view
ing the fight through a field glass.
Crosby was not an experienced news
paper man. but his energy supplied any
lack on that score. and his correspOn-
dence. which was signed Don Carlos"
was OF the best that came from the
insurgent side. Crosby was OF English
birth and was educated in France and
graduated from the celebrated military
school of st. Cyr. He entered the
French army and served in Algiers and
elsewhere. He went to Cuba as CORE
spondent for the Chicago Record last
winter. and at once went through the
lines and cast his fortunes with the in
surgents. not as a combataht. hut as a
newspaper correspondent strictly.

bers Of the ways and means committee
from Connecticut, poured hot shot into
the camp Of the Massachusetts, dissen-
tiers, exposing the fact in the course Of
his remarks that Lowering, who is a
cotton manufacturer. had asked for in
creases ON the finer grades Of cotton
yarns.
The extraordinary discussion" as
Dingley termed it, drew from the ma
5ority leader vigorous statement about
the cotton and wooden schedules. He
said 1t was the unanimous testimony Of
the cotton manufacturers that they could
not maintain their own in the manu-
facture of the finer goods without the
duties in this bill. The Wilson law they
testified furnished adequate protection
to the coarser goods which were being
manufactured in the SOUTH. But the
New England manufacturers, including
Lowering. testified to the necessity for
these increases. II take It," said he,
that the gentleman has not asked for
more than was necessary. He does not
mean to say that this duty will 'smoth-
err the cotton manufacturer"
As to the wooden schedule, he said 1t
was substantially the schedule OF the
Mckinley law. and gave the manufac-
turer no more than the cotton manu-
facturer obtained. 1t simply compen-
stated the manufacturer for the duty on
wool. The manufacturer had as much
protection under the act Of 1894, but the
duties were reduced at the expense Of
the farmer. The duty on wool had been
restored in response to the demand of
the farmers that they receive the same
consideration as the manufacturers
