MCKINLEY TT CHHTTHNOOGH.
Spanish Mission and Cuban Question Still Undecided

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, June 13.-
After a week of travel, sightseeing,
speechmaking and social duties, Pres
ident Mckinley, Mrs. Mckinley and
the more immediate official staff had a
Sabbath OF restfulness. The party
breakfasted in their car, and immedi-
ately after, much to the regret of
many prominent citizens, who wished
to meet the chief executive in the
morning, drove to the residence of
Hon. H. Clay Evans, United States
commissioner Of pensions. 1t was not
the desire Of the hospitable citizens of
Chattanooga, however, in any way to
controvert the presidents wishes.
At 1890 O'Clock the president. ac-
companied by Postmaster General
Key and Mr.. Evans, went to the First
Methodist church. Mrs. Mckinley did
not accompany him. No reference
whatever was made to the dtStin-
guished guest IN the sermon or service,
except that the blessing OF Providence
was asked for him and his admins
tration in the opening prayer The
church was, Of course, crowded. and
many were unable to obtain admission.
At the close of the service the presi-
dent returned to Mr. Evans home.
After dinner the president gave a
short reception in the Reed house,
which commenced at 7:30 p. m.
At o'clock the president went TO
the house Of Capt. H. s. Chamberlain,
a personal friend, where he remained
a short time, afterwards going again
to Commissioner Evans home, whence

daughter, Mrs. McCullom, who was af-
fected by the heat in Nashville last
Friday and today has been quite in

Secretries Alger and Wilson attend

There is absolutely nothing new to
say in-regard to the Spanish mission,
and as this in g great measure in
cludes the Cuban question, no policy
on the latter question can be given. a
gentleman close to the administration
said to the Associated Press CORE
spondept: THE question of the Cuban
policy occupies the president day and
night The situation is an embarras-
sing one. though not an unusual one.
I think I am fully justified in saying
that the offer of the mission has not
been officially made to any one"
The presidential train pulled out be-
tween 10 and II o'clock, and went three
miles to Sherman Heights, where It
remained until the schedule time for
leaving, the purpose being to avoid
the heat OF the city.

Senate Hopes to Complete i5cus=
sion of the Bill in Fortnight.

WASHINGTON June 1S-The sugar
schedule of the tariff bill is expected
to continue to be the subject of con-
sideration in the senate for the next
day or two. The Hawaiian treaty and
antitrust amendment are still to be
disposed Of, and both will excite consid-
cradle debate. With the sugar question
settled, the agricultural schedule. which
mas been partially considered, will be
again taken up, and will in time be
followed by the tobacco schedule, if in
the meantime the Republicans agree
upon its provisions. The Republican
managers hope to also dispose Of the
spirit and cotton schedules during the
week and possibly to make some prog
ress with the hemp and flax provi-
s1ons. There will be no great amount
OF debate on either cotton or spirits.
There was at one time talk of an at
tempt to add compensatory duties on
cotton goods because of the duty fixed
on raw cotton, but this is understood
to have been abandoned, if ever seri-
ously contemplated.
The Democrats Go not find the present
schedule objectionable except in minor
details, and will allow it to go through
with but little discussion
The Republican managers now hope
that the debate in the senate will be
concluded within the next two weeks,
Notwithstanding that less than one
third of the bill has been gone over.
They have secured an agreement with
the Democrats that the sessions shall
begin at II O'Clock each day instead of
II after Wednesday next.
THE HOUSE
probably will continue it's policy of
adJourning from Monday over to
Thursday, and from Thursday until
the following Monday. No business
will be done, and the sessions tomor-
row and Thursday will be merely per-
functory.

HRJ1S FOR THE CUBaNS.
Another Big Expedition Being
Fitted Out.

WASHINGTON, June 13.-The treas
ury department has received by refer
ence from the secretary Of state a. COM
munication from the Spanish minister
to the effect that he has information
that an important filibustering expedi-
ton is being organized on the coast Of
Florida, and asks that steps be taken
by the government to Illustrate it, No
particulars were given, so that the only
action that could be taken by the de-
partment was to communicate this in
formation to all collectors and masters
of the patrol fleet on the Florida coast.
with instructions to be on the alert to
prevent the departure of any suspected
expedition, This was done today by
telegraph.
1t developed later that the depart
ment has specific information Of the
shipment of arms and ammunition for
what promises to be one of the most
important filibustering expeditions for
several months. A carload of arms
left Jacksonville Friday morning by the
Florida East Coast railroad and pass
ed near Smyrna southbound A second
carload Of rifles and dynamite left
Jacksonville Saturday morning on the
regular freight train for the probable
purpose Of being transferred to SOME
vessel on the East coast, probably the
yacht Valusia, which has been engaged
to transfer these munitions from the
railways to the vessel destined for
Cuba It is probable that the vessel
which will receive these arms will not
come close to shore.

ST. CLOUD, Mimi, June 13.-The
withdrawal Of the charges by the ex-
ecutiVe council against Senator Culkin
was nearly caused in the federation Of
labor convention tonight. The matter
brought ON such a heated discussion
that when the federation voted that
the action Of the council was ill-advis-
ed and refused to reconsider by a vote
OF 33 to 81, the st. Paul delegates left
the hall for a caucus. Secretary Nc
Even made q dramatic speech for har-
mony, the convention adjourned and
things looked sQually. The st. Paul
delegates came back and demanded
reconsideration, stating that unless
granted it would divide the federation.
Fearing a split, the convention voted
to strike out all reference to the Gull
kin matter. The fight started in the
afternoon over the recommendation Of
the committee to whom was referred
the report Of the executive council. It
approved everything including the rec
ommendation that the candidates for
governor next year should be pledged
not to reappoint Labor Commissioner
organized labor; that lists Of friends
and enemies Of labor IN the last legis-
lature be printed and furnished unions.
But as to the withdrawal of the charg-
es against Senator Culkin the commit
tee reported that, while it was posi-
tive the council had not been Influenced
by corrupt means, criticisms made
against that body for such action We're
not entirely urldeserYfng. This pre-
cipitated a fierce debate lasting several
hours in the AFTERNOON and was resum-
ed at night with the above result.
THE CONVENTION ORGANIZED.
The convention was called to order
by President w. E. Neary, of Mime
apolss, this morning. 1t is the largest
Federation of Labor ever held during
the history Of that organization. Will
liam e. McEwen and Julius Dwor
schak, of Duluth, acted as secre etaTies.
Major Mackrell welcomed the delegates
on behalf Of the city, to which the
convention replied with q vote of
thanks. The forenoon session was de-
voted to the appointment Of commit
tees, hearing their reports and the
reading and reference Of officers re-
ports, as well as lengthy statement
from the federation coiincl, in which
members or the recent legislature who
were instrumental in defeating labor
legislation, came in for a severe casti-
cation. President Neary ANNOUNCED the

and discharged a pistol at M Faure as
he drove up to the entrance, and there
was a subsequent report that both pis-
tol and bomb were used. But the po-
lice now believe that the supposed
pistol shot was merely the noise of
the bomb. The bomb was a clumsily
made affair, to which a piece of fuse
was attached, and the fuse was prob
ably lighted by a paper fixed in the
end Of a stick as soon as the head of
the procession came into view. The
presumption is that at the moment the
fuse was lighted the culprit fed, and
in any case the bomb could not have
done much harm.
In the thicket where the poles
found the remnants of the bomb they
found a pistol on which were en-
graved the words Mort a Felix
Faure," and the names Alsace-Lor-
raine and Cologne. Near the pistol
was small dagger bearing similar
threatening inscription, and few feet
away the police found a newspaper
with a cartoon grossly insulting to the
president. This contained an offensive
Inscription limiting at the execution of
M. Faure.
Several persons have stated to the
police that the moment the explosion
occurred a man was seen to run swift
ly into the thicket, but reports Of this
character are likely to be mere con-
lecture.
The correspondent Of the Associated
Press had an interview with an official
who was riding with M. Faure
The official said: when the report
was heard a dense cloud Of smoke rose
from the thicket, and there was con-
sternation until it was found that no
one had been injured. The police
sprang forward, but found the thicket
deserted. When the crowd saw one of
the policemen holding the bomb they

PARIS, June 13-An attempt was
made today to assassinate Felix Faure,
president Of the French republic, while
he was en- route to Long Champs to
witness the Grand Prix.
While M. Faure's carriage was pass
ing a thicket near La Cascade restau-
rant in the Bois de Boulogne, a bomb,
which subsequently proved to be a
piece of tubing about six inches long
and two inches in diameter, with a
thickness Of half an inch, charged with
powder and swan shot, exploded.
No one was injured by the explosion.
A man in the crowd suspected as the
prime mover was arrested. He gave his
name as Gallet and made only the brief
est replies to questions put to him by
the police.
GHallet said that he had no occupa-
tion, but resided at Levallers-Perret.
The police are making thorough search
Of his lodgings. He is believed to be
insane, for he shouted as the carriag ge
passed along so loudly as to attract
| general attention in the crowd. The
police have also made another arrest
in this case a youth, but it is thought
pioDdple Lldt the actual culpr1t eScdp-
ed.
The news Of the attempt spread like
wild fire through the city, and when M
Faure returned to the Elysee the
streets along the route where it was
known he would drive were crowded
with people who cheered him vocifer-
ously.
1t was first reported that the would
he assassin was a young man about
twenty-five who stood in the crowd
100 yards or more from the race course
