GEN. MILES TO EABORERS.
His Sympathies With Them Ever Since
 Ills Eoyhood,

] Pittsburg, June 30.-7Major General | Nelson A. Miles, who is in the city as
 the guest of "all organized labor" had
 a busy time to-day, In the forenoon
 the general was taken through the
 Homestead armor plate works and oth-
 CT mills, in the afternoon he held a pub | lie reception and in the evening he ad- l dressed two large audiences in the | Grand opera house and in the Avenue | theater. Preceding the evening enter | tainment General Miles was escorted ] through the principal streets by sev- eral local military organizations The route of the parade was lined by thou sands of people anxious to see and cheer the distinguished guest. Mrs. Miles was entertained to-day by Mrs. Daily and other prominent women by a drive through the city, after which she was greeted by many visitors at the Schen- ley. The part yleft for Cincinnati late tonight.
 In the course of General Miles ad- dress at the opera house he said: II
 
 repeat what I stated several years ago
 in a public document, at crucial time in the history of labor, that, so far as am concerned l believe that l can sin cerely say that my sympathies nave been from boyhood to the present time with the man who labors in an honest and honorable occupation. From the earliest records and traditions we find that the people who have been industri- ous, prudent and temperate have been prosperous, happy and strong.
 Labor has been gradually ascending to the clear sunlight of reason aud pro- gressive thought. It is being more in- telligenty directed, and better utilized; more generally respected and more ap- preciated. There was a time when there was a far wider gulf between him who toled and him who did not than there is to-day It is possible that sometimes our advantages and institutions are not fully appreciated If there is any body of people in the United States that con stitute the strongest patriots, it is that body of men who toll and seek honest occupation for the benefit of themselves and their families. They cherish the institutions of their country and I have witnessed the grandest manifesto ton of their power.
 While the republic has in hundred years vastly outgrown the proportions by it's founders the principle of government, the responsibilities of and statesmanship remain the same. While there are new and toI la tied on principles of justice and human ity, there are still mighty interests and responsibilities within affecting youyour children and children's childron, requir- ing the most earnest and unsellish wis dom and patriotism OH the part of all its citizens and no national duty is of 1 more vital importance than that to pro- | tect and promote the toilers of this great | nation in all that can contribute to their l welfare and prosperity"

Stevens of Philadelphia, single objection sending it to the com mittee on resolutions: Resolved that, while this conferece may not be wholly in harmony with the policy of the na- tional administration in the Philippines it has the highest admiration for Ad- miral George and is not lacking Tn ap- preciaton of the qualities he has dis played as an American citizen and gal lant commander
 MT. Kennedy of Bnghampton then took the platform and asked all those who were in favor of the United States withdrawing from the Philippines to stand Almost everybody arose before the chairman could rap them down and declare Kenendy out of order.

SERIOUS TROURLE ROME
scenes ot Violence in Parlinment-Kinr
 N0mpcIIed to Close It

Rome, June 30.-The most violent and
 disgraceful scenes took place in tba
 chamber of deputies to-day. During the proceedings a secret ballot was ordered upon certain bills and the socialists rushed down to prevent it. Signor Son.
 nino advanced first to register his vote.
 but the socialist deputy Signor Bisso- lati, dealt him violent blow near the temple. Signor Sonnino then seized him by the throat and coat collar and threw him down, receiving himself, in the meantime, numerous blows from the. other socialists who took part in the af- fray. While this tussle was in progress hand to hand combats were waging all around and the conservatives, Signor Santini and Signor BertOlini, used their fists upon the socialists with great ef- feet. Signor Costa, socialist, with his sleeves turned up dealt blows right and left. The galleries joined in the lproar and were cleared.
 Signor Chinaglia, the president of the chamber, suspended the sitting. When the combatants were separated Sgnor Sonnino persuaded the president to re- sume the proceedings, if only, as he put it. to afford incontestible proof of so- cialist violence" The secret ballot was again caled for with the result that there was a repetition of the disorder and fighting, together with an exchange of the filthest insults. The socialists finally carried off the voting urns. It is runored late this evening that the government has ordered the arrest and trial of the four deputies who removed the urns. The chamber being cl sed, parliamentary immunity will not cover these socialists after three weeks.
