INDIAN BILL PASSED.

Washington, April 5.-After passing the Indian appropria tion bill today the senate considered the exclusion meas ure nearly three hours. The principal speech of the session was made by MT. Fairbanks of Indiana ir support of the bill. He analysed it's provisions to dem- onstrate that they were not in con travention of our treaty with China and discussed a t length the right Of con sress to enact exclusion legislation. He maintained that it was a cardinal prin- ciple of this government to protect labor against such low priced labor IS would come to the United States from China.
 An extended debate upon some of the provisions of the pending bill followed MT. Fairbanks speech. Messrs. Gal finger of New Hampshire and Platt of Connecticut indicated their belief that the provisions of the measure relating to the exempted classes were in con- traventiOn of our treaty obligations to China Messrs.

quest for the resignation would be placed before a general meeting.
 So great was the surprise that cries of shame" and "OutraSe!" were dis tinctIy audible from some parts of the crowded auditorium. MT. Sweetser has a large number of friends in the con- gregation, especially among the young CT element.
 The friction between the pastor and his vestrymen is said to have culmin- ated in open rupture at the time of the assassination of President Mckinley. After the arrest of CZolgosz Pastor SWeetser is said to have made a fer vent prayer for the assassin, while he refused to pray for the dying presi- dent. It is also said that the Rev. MT. Sweetser refused to hold memorial ser vices or to eulogize Mckinley after his death.
 In consequence, his resignation was requested quietly Last week. the res ignation not having been sent in. it was peremptorily demanded by vote of @ to 3. The Church of the Messiah is the leading Universalist church in the state. George C. Thomas of Tube hocken is treasurer of the vestry and one of the oldest members of the con- gregation.

Predicts 100000 Tammany Majority If Mayor Grants Perpetual Franchise.

New York. April 5.-Abe Gruber, the republican leader of the twenty-first assembly district, made another attack on Mayor Low before the John Kissel republican battery in McCaddin hall, Williamsburg. last night MT. Gruber dislikes Mayor Lows attitude on civil service, excise and other things. He said that Mayor Low wanted to settle the excise question by borroughs.
 If Manhattan should vote against open saloons" he said. 'and Brooklyn for them. there wouldn't be enough water in the East river to quench the thirst of the people in Manhattan"
 MT. Gruber also said: If Mayor Low grants the Pennsylvania railroad a franchise in perpetuity, he will be beat en at the next election by 100000 votes by any man Tammany puts up and l will go out and work against him. We don't want Tammany back, but if the administration is untrue to it's princi- pies Tammany will surely return
 MT. Gruber thought that District At torney Jerome is a possibility as the democratic candidate for governor.

victims sustained their injuries in the fall of the terrace.
 Up to midnight five deaths had been reported as a result of the accident, while in the cases of twenty other victims all hope of recovery had been abandoned. An investigation into the causes of the disaster shows that the breakdown of the terrace began before the structure was subjected to the Se- verest strain, and it is now believed l that the final collapse was caused more directly by the efforts of those nearest the first break than by the additional weight of those who rushed upon the stand from below. The terrace d.
 though supported by iron girders, swayed and cracked omniously under the movements of it's frantic occupants. 1 The fallen portion is 100 feet long, 1 thirty feet wide and contained twelve | tiers of seats. The injured in many
 cases were lying five or six deep, and l it is considered marvellous that there ! were not more fatalities. One man
 hung by his boot, which caught in a i splintered beam, head downward, fifty
 feet above the ground. Finally the l boot was cut, and the man dropped into
 a sheet held below.
 The strangest feature Of the affair is
 the fact that the crowd in other parts
 of the grounds failed entirely to realize
 the extent of the disaster, and the game was played to a finish, resulting
 in a draw. Even the management ap-
 peared to be unaware of the serious
 ness of the accident until it was an
 nounced after the conclusion of the
 game.
 Nearly all the victims of the accident are men. Among the last to be taken
 out from the wreckage were two wo-
 men, both of whom were practically
 unhurt.

Glasgow, April 6.-During the inter- national football match between Eng land and Scotland here this afternoon, the immense crowd broke down the barriers, and during the terrific crush two persons were killed outright and more than 100 were injured.
 When the game began 10000 specta- tors were on the ground and an inn mense crowd gathered outside. Being unable to obtain admittance, this crowd broke down some of the barriers and swarmed upon the field, whereupon the police charged and drove the intruders back upon the terraces and seats, with the result that the railings dividing the crowds were broken and people were thrown upon each other. In the fran tic struggle toward the exits the pres sure toward the upper portion of the westerly terrace was so great that 100 feet of the highest part of the structure collapsed under the weight of the crowd driven upon It. precipitating a mass of poole to the ground, sixty feet below. The injured Were piled in heaps wedged in with broken wood.
 The onlookers hesitated to approach the structure at first, but finally be- gan to utilize portions of the broken barriers as stretchers. A hundred of the most seriously injured were carried
 to the pavilion and to spaces in the rear of the stands. A majority of the victims are suffering from broken ribs and fractured limbs, while some sus- tained internal injuries. Those most severely hurt were later removed in ambulances to infirmatores and the lesser sufferers were sent in caT-S tC surgeries. Six of the injured are not
 likely to recover. A few persons were
 thrown down and trampled upon in
 trying to escape from the crush when the police charged, but most of the
