CURRENCY DEBATE.
House Galleries DO Not Fiji to Listen
to II.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 12-There is such
great pressure for time on part Of mem
berS on both sides of the house who de-
sire TO participate in the currency debate
that three night sessions were ordered to-
day. Interest In the debate is not keen
judged by the attendance in the galleries
although the members themselves are
listening attentively to the speeches
Only one Democrat thus far has spoken
in favor of The bilI-Mr. briggs of New
YOrk-Who announced today that he had
pledged himself before election TO support
the gold standard and proposed to redeem
that pledge. He will be Joined by several
of his Brooklyn colleagues, and probably
several others.
The features of the debate today were
the speeches Of Mr. Grosvenor, of Ohio
for the bill and of Mr.. Cochran, Of Mis-
souri,, and Mr.. Newlands, Of Nevada,
against it. The other speakers were:
Messrs. Parker On. j. William Alden
Smith (Mich), Prince Gll), Lawrence
(Mass) and Powers Wt.) for the bill
and Messrs. Shafroth (Col) and Sims
tTenn) against It,
Mr. Parker IN. j.. in support Of the
bill, argued that the pending question
should not be a party ore.
Mr. William Alden Smith (Itch) SPOKE
in advocacy of the bill. The steady
growth of the circulat ton during the past
three ard half years aggregating $376,-
00C 600 gave the lie TO the advocates Of
free silver. Our commerce with gold
standard countries last year aggregated
q, b00,hG0 000 with silver countries $139 000-
600. How idle 1T would be then to jeop-
arGlZe that commerce then by going to a
silver basis.
Mr. Prince Oil J, who was a member of
the banking and currency committee in
the last congress, presented an argument
in favor of the bill
Mr. Cochran MOI opposed the bill in a
vigorous speech, in which he ccntended
that the real question presented by the
pending bill was whether there was suf-
fcient gold IN the world upon which to
pyramid the vast and constantly ipcreas-
ing volume of credit. He referred to the
recent dispatches from London showing
the struggle for gold all over Europe,
and declared that the gold impcrtatons
during the Mckinley administration had
produced the gold famine abroad There
was not enough gold in the world to do
the business of the world. The importa-
ticn of gold to pay for the surplus crop
exported, to supply the failure of crops
abroad, Mr.. Cochran claimed, mad quick
ened trade, and had produced the prosper
ity Of which the Republicans boasted to-
day. He warned the Republicans that
wnen the stock Of gold declined the pros
perity of today would crumble like a
house of cards In the course of his
speech, when Mr. Cochran reiterated Mr.
Rl'yan's famous declaration concerning
the crown of thorns and cross of gold
the Republicans jeered derisiveiy.

ognized the Philippine republic at Manila
is question which MIR. Pettigrew, of
South Dakota, desires the navy depart
ment to answer. He introduced a rs sou-

BATTLE WITH YAaUIs.
Mexican Troops Defeated Indians
After Prolonged Fighting.

r A&n
AUSTIN, Tex, Dec. Inflammation
reaching here today is to the effect that
on Dec. the Yaqui Indians and the
Mexican forces under Gen. Torres had
a pitched battle near, Rio Chicago, on the
Yaqui river. The engagement was be-
tween the main body of Indians and
Mexican forces numbering some 1900
men.
About ten DAYS ago several bands of
rowing YaQuisT who had been out on
scouting expeditions and depredating
tours, began gathering az the main camp
of the YaqUis located in the mountains
on the Paphigochic' river The Mexican
troops attempted bto s;head- the small
bands off, but they. were unsuccessful,
and in short time all of them had
Joined the main body of the Indians
Evidently fearing that. the Mexican
troops were preparing to invade their
camp, the Indians pushed the fighting
themselves by attacking the Mexican
forces in their camp.
The onslaught was vigorous, but not
very effective, as the Indians did not
advance in solid body, preferrng their
old warfare of man for man. behind
boulders and trees. In this manner they
began their attack on the soldiers camp
and, according to the report. the fighting
was most severe and lasted for a day
anu might, WHeH the INDIANS Withdrew,
having sustained considerable loss
The militia made several attempts to
dislodge the Indians from their retreat
in the rough, woody country. during the
engagement, without success, and upon
each deploy the soldiers lost quite a
number of men killed and wounded
While the military troops are engaging
this main body of Indians there are a
number of smaller bands of Yaquis roam
ing around the mountainous country
laying ranches in waste and otherwise
playing havoc.
1t is learned that the Mexican forces
have the Twentieth infantry marching to
their assistance, when they hope to fol-
low the main body of the Indians and
either capture or annihilate them.

sentRtiveS-COmmit Confers.
WASHINGTON, Dec 12-The Roberts
Investigating committee resumed its ses-
sion today behind closed doors THIS, it
was explained, was to permit the com
mittee to read and discuss reports on
procedure form of subpoena, etc Mean
time Mr.. Roberts himself and quite d
gathering of Mormons and Gentiles
stood outside the committee door, await
ing admission. Mr.. Roberts was pre-
pared to continue his argument on the
demurrer to the right of the commit
tee to try him. ~ The Gentle delegation
was more numerous, including the white
haired Rev. Drs Tiff. Mr.. Schroeder, to
whom Roberts fnterposed rather sensa-
tional objection on Saturday, and the
others who have come on from Utah to
direct the proceedings against him. Mi
Roberts summary is as follows:
From the lotegoing established doc
trlne and rights of members of congress,
It follows that the proposed proceedings
Of this committee would be subversive
Of the rights of the member from Utah
u. In that he is to be adjudged guilty
Of crime without due process of law
= That he is to be adjudged dis
4udiIiAtu Dy QlSdLDlueS created by en-
Rcments of congress and applicable to
he state of Utah, which disabilities have
been remoVed-(a) by amnesUies of two
presidents; tb) by the enabling act pass
sd by congress; tc) by the transition of
tan from territorial 10 that of state
hood.
g. II further appears that the crime
alleged against the member from Utah
does not constitute 4 disqualification for
a member of congress until the house
and its committee are prepared TO assert
their power and right to add to the quail
iiicauons prescribed by the constitution
Of the United States
~. And. further, the proposed
proceedings of this committee would
deprive the member from Utah
of the constitutional right TO a trial by
court OF competent jurisdiction and by
jury of his peers within the state and
district where the crime is alleged to
him OF property and rights without
due process of law
The member from Utah therefore asks
the committee to stop its present pro-
ceedings and consider the prima facie
right of the member from Utah to be
sworn in as member of the house of
representatives Of the Fifty-sixth con-
greSs.
AS to protests by certain sectarian
ministers from Utah. Roberts holds that
the committee ought not to consider
them, for the reason that the affidavits
presented by them bear dates as fol-
lows: Thomas j. BandOn. Feb. 49, 1899;
Ray T. Bandon. Feb. 49, 1899; Lueila p
Miles, Feb. q. 1899; Mrs. Marie E. Nc
Dougal, May q 1899-aII dates being
several months prior to the departure
OF the representative from Utah for the
East. For more than a year after the
charges began to be made against him
