GIFT BRINGS TEARS FROM
PRESIDENT MITCHELL.
Overcome with Emotion at Miners Gen.
erosity-Cash Goes to His Wife-Elo-
quent Speech in Convention.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Jan. 22.-Per-
haps the most eloquent speech Presi-
dent John Mitchell, of the United Mine
Workers of America, c made. was
delivered yesterday afternoon before
the national convention, when he de-
clined to accept a personal gift of 81, 100

BRINGS
HOOTS FROM
SOCIALISTS
Ignored in ReichStag, Break
Up SessiOn-.POlice
Patrol Streets.

BERLIN, Jan. 2~2.-Chancellor Won
Buelow refused categorically in ,ho
R~eichstag today to reply to a Socialist
Interpolation on the subject of the
Prussian suffrage. This pr9cipitated a
d%eafening uproar from the members,
during which ali the ministers LEFT tho
Rouse. The debate was then continued
before the half-empty benches.
Trouble with the people had been ex-
peoted, particularly in view Of the
street disorders of yesterday. and in
order to be prepared for a recurrence
of violent encounters between the po-
lice and the populace the buildings of
Parliament were surrounded from early
morning with a strong force OF police
armed with pistols and sabres, Fur
thermore, the principal thoroughfares
of Berlin are being patroled constant
ly by police, both mounted and on foot.
The Interpolation was very skilfully
worded in order to bring it within The
official authority of the Reichstag. The
question was framed as follows:
"On what ground does the Chancellor
consider manhood suffrage, as already
granted for the elections to the I'M
perial Parliament, to be harmful to the
interests of one of the Federal states? 2"
Prince Won Buelow opened the Reich
stag proceedings by a warning against
further manifestations, which he de-
clared did not affect the government i'm
the slightest degree. He threatened,
amid ronclad cheering from the Social
lists, that the leaders and organizers of
all demonstrations would be dealt with
severely.
Serious rioting occurred yesterday in
the vicinity of the Reichstag building.
where the Socialists Interpolation re-
garding the Prussian suffrage system
was scheduled to come up. In the
afternoon some two thousand persons,
mostly unemployed men and half
grown boys, marched through the
streets. intending to reach the Reich
stag, but found the bridges over the
Spree strongly occupied by police, who
soon summoned a mounted division to
assist in dispensing the crowd.
When a part of the mob reached the
construction, they found piles of bricks,
and they began to hurl the bricks at the
police, who drew sabres, striking here
and there among the rioters with the
fiat of the blades. Workmen in tic
upper stories of the theatre threw
brickbats down upon the police.
From estimates made at a number of
meetings of the unemployed today, it
appears that there are about $4,000 men
without work in Berlin.

Atlantic City officials to Ask That In

Be Raised.

ATLANTIC CITY, Jan. 22.-City Off
cials will ask for a change in tax laws so
that the rate Of interest to be paid on de-
linquent taxes be raised to more than
the Z per cent. now required by State
law.
Under the old 70 per cent. rate the city
made a profit out of all tax payments de-
ferred after the fixed time for settlement,
but the low rate now demanded appar-
emily makes it profitable for the taxpay-
ers to hold On to their money during the
winter season.
As a result OF this the city is short a
half million dollars for municipal use, and
may be forced to borrow money foE cur
rent expenses.
