immigrants.
The bill consists Of series of amend
ments to the existing law, all OF them
intended to permit stricter regulations
for keeping out the defective classes of
aliens. The head tax is increased from
81 to IS.
An amendment requiring an educa.
tional test for immigrants and also re-
quiring that no immigrant carrying less
than $25 should be admitted was pre-
sented by Simmons, who spoke in sup
port of it. Lodge offered substitute

ted except members OF the families OF
male adults now residing in the United
States. Simmons accepted the substi'
tute and it was adopted.
Washington, May 23.-When the
house met today an unusual scene oc'
Cured. Williams, the minority lead
or, demanded the ayes and noes on
motion of Adams, OF Pennsylvania, to
90 into committee of the whole for the
further consideration OF the diplomatic
and consular bill. This was refused
the speaker holding that one-hfth OF
the members present had not risen to
demand the ayes and noes.
81 demand that the otter side be
taken" called out Williams.
The speak ,r refused to take the mega
tive on rising vote, stating that but
short time before it had been demon
strated that quorum was present, l95
Then Williams Numbered out pro-
test against the speakers ruling.
An attempt to secure order was IN
vain, and, leaving Williams standing
the speaker left the desk, and Curtis
of Kansas, took his place, as chairman
of the committee OF the whole. and in
general debate the bill was discussed

Tuesday, May %.

Washington, May 22.-The senate
today devoted the greater part OF the
session to consideration OF the immi-
grafton BILL but before it was oaken up
McCumber made personal statement,
contradicting an article printed IN the
New York Tribune that the railroad
rate bill had been 80 amended at his
instance as to render it ineffective.
Previous to that time also the senate
adopted resolution directing the com.
mittee on privileges and elections to
consider the course to be pursued In
the case OF Burton.
Speeches on theimmigration bill were
made by Dillingham;, McCreary, Bacon,
Scott, Patterson and others. The bill
was still under consideration when the
senate adjourned.
Washington, May 22.-For an hour
or more today the house OF representa-
tives could not decide whether to 60
into committee OF the whole on the
diplomatic and consular bill. or to
follow the lead of Gardner OF Massa-
chusetts to take up consideration OF the
immigration bill.
Assisted by Williams, the minority
leader, Gardner led mild flibuster
against taking up the diplomatic bill,
and endeavored to delay matters by
raising a number OF parliamentary
points. The Republicans, however,
had quorum present, and eventually
the diplomatic bill was taken up and
general debate began and continued
till s o'clock.
The senate bill authorizing the con
sturction of a dam across the Pend
d'Oreille river in the state of Washing
ton was passed.

Thursday, May "a.

Washington, May 24.-The senate
entered today upon the consideration OF
the agricultural appropriation bill.
Hale criticised the provision permit
ting the secretary of agriculture to ex-
tend to 80 days the fortnights leave
now allowed to employees outside the
city of Washington, expressing the
opinion that the practice is growing
rapidly, and that it will soon extend to
ali the postofiices of the country if not
checked. He spoke of the general de-
mand for government employment, say
ing that such employees became "a hun
prv, persistent band OF mendicants, y
and that congress is dragooned, impor-
tuned and browbeaten by the demands
of this organized band of subordinates.
Hale referred to the possibility OF pen
sioning government employees.
The free alcohol bill was passed by
the senate practically as it came from
the house.
Washington, MAY 24.-Speaker Can
non, with the memory OF yesterday e
proceedings in his mind, took new
tack today when the house Of repfesen-
tatives met, by sending word to Curtis,
of Kaneas, to raise the point of mo
quorum" when division was demand
ed by Williams, of Mississippi, on the
vote to resume consideration OF the
diplomatic and consular bill. Mr..
Curtis made the poin, of "no quorum, y
taking the wind out OF Williams' sails,
the "call of the house" proceeding I'M
der Republican demand inste.d of on
the demand OF the leader of the minor
ity. A quorum was present, the vote
being, Ayes 222, noes 81, present 10.

MARKET SUFFERED
From Many Wild Rumors Current in
the Stock Fearing
Money Stringency.

New York, Sept. 27.-Current re-
constantly today as yesterday and
speculative sentiment seemed to un-
der the same vacillation during the
day There was an appreciate eX-
pansion in the volume of the market
however. and the results were much
wider than yesterday. Effective eff
forts on one side for higher prices
practically ended after the shock,
caused by alarming rumors regarding
the extent of harm done by a storm
in the southern states, although there
was a temporary recovery after it was
learned how far the early rumors were
exaggerated. As these rumors point
led TO the humiliation of the city of
.of the San Francisco calamity the eff
feet on prices Of stock was natural
when the results that followed the
Frisco disaster were remembered.
The more sober consideration of the
news from the South detracted from
its sensational features but provided
some grounds for misgivings over the
effect on the cotton crop.
Fears Of pinch in the money mar
ket, played part in the pressure on
the market Great diligence is ex-
pressed in studying up detail of re-
.quirements to be met in October, and
the mention of anything that has es
capped general attention is of influence
in aggravating fears of stringency.
There were reports of further gold en-
gagements current today but no actual
engagements were announced until
after the stock market closed when

ket was hardly shown 10 be disturbed. !
The considerable rally at the last
was due to covering of short con
tracts by bears and was evidence of

RICHARD G. Iv....5
HANGED AT CHICAGO
Slayer of Miss Ilo,lister Goes to the
Gallows - Curious Crowds
About the Jail.

Chicago. June 23-Richard G. 1vens
was hanged in the county Jail here.
His life paid the laws penalty for the
thrice confessed murder of Mrs. Res
sic NJ. Hollister, JAN. II. The revolving
nature of the crime and the murdcrer's
calm admission of guilt shocked Chi
cago and aroused agitation for the
safety of women in the city's streets.
The drop on the scaifold fell ut HOB
O'Clock. With the words of the Epis-
cOpal service ringing in his ears and
with the hearing of stole, Ivens was
sprung to his death. Ivens was the
coolest person i'll the jail when he
stepped onto the death trap. He said
no final word from the scaffold, his
last message having been written to
his mother just before the death march
was begun.
Curious throngs attracted by the pic
turesqle and dramatic features of the
approaching execution fiocked about
the jail early. In the crowds a strange
mixture of morbidly curious persons,
sensation seekers, and cranks, was
present.
