QUIET AT BARCELONA
 BUT WAR MAY BE DECLARED
UNLESS THE PRISONERS ARE
 RELEASED.
The Moors Are Preparing for a Grand
 Engagement.

Cerbere. France. Aug. 3.-A dis patcn from Barcelona says that while quiet at present reigns everywhere, it is stated from good source that the revolutionary element intends to again take up arms if the prisoners are not liberated. Official figures of casualties among the troops during the insurrection,. made public official ly, did not include the civil guard, of whom many were killed or wounded
 Barcelona is quiet but the populace unceasingly demands the liberation of the prisoners taken during the fight ing. Troops still patrol the streets but otherwise life is almost normal. It is impossible to give an estimate of the number of victims of the dis orders, but they are far in excess of the official figures. It is rumOred that Senor Iglesias, editor of the rev olutionary paper, Fl Progresso, who, it was reported had been shot, is living and has been released from the fortress.

IA MENACE AT LARGE
Belief of the Acting Super intendent at MatteaWan- ThaW Made Nervous by the Testimony of Experts for the State.

White Plains, Aug. 5.-Three alien ists united in the supreme court today to make it unpleasant for Harry K. Thaw, who killed Stanford White and was adjudged insane but now demands release from the Matteawan asylum as mentally normal man. All three testified that he was insane, and when Thaw took the stand briefly after this disconcerting testimony he was plain ly ruffled and nervous, but Jerome dis missed him after a few comparatively unimportant questions.
 Of the alienists who testified were Dr. Flint, Dr. William Hirsch and pr. Amos T. Baker. The last named gave testimony of the most importance. He is acting superintendent at Mattea wan. Justice Mills took a hand in questioning him. pr. Baker said that in his opinion Thaw was insane now and dangerous person to be at large. It was shortly after this declaration that Jerome quickly called Thaw to the stand.
 He was pale and apparently shaken. The district attorney put some rather incOherent notes written by the pris- oner in evidence, and asked him to explain them. After Darries back and forth and IabOrious explanations by Thaw as to the meaning of certain writings, he said: T want you to know, Jerome. that many of these notes you call suggestions were writ ten at the request of my lawyers
 Jerome asked: Do you mean to sit there and tell us, who observed you in both homicide trials, that you did not believe you knew more about the case than your lawyers?'
 'I do," quickly replied Thaw.
 Dr. Austin Flint described a para nOiac as a person dominated by cer- tain impressions, whose mental and physical state might not be otherwise affected except insofar as those delu- siOns influence him. "Paranoiacs," he concluded impressively, 'never recov- CT" Dr. Hirsch varied the general verdict by describing Thaw as de generate paranoiac."

Work VIII be CoRtinuedo on all
 Projects Now Under Way SAYS SECRETARY BALL|NGER
Idea of Suspending Opera tions in Territories Is Abandoned, but on Ac- count of Lack of Funds No New Work Will Be Begun.

Portland, Aug. 3.-Secretary of the Interior Ballinger today continued his conferences with Director Newell of the reclamation department, and Chief Engineer Davis and the super visins engineers of the various recla- nation districts throughout the cOun- try who are in this city. The confer ences are executive and no formal statement of the conclusion reached will be given cut until the sessions are ended. and Torhaps not then.
 In an informal statement this after noon, however, Secretary Ba,linge. said that in all probability the gov ernment would adopt the policy of completing the reclamation projects now under way, rather than to under take new work which would hamper the work now going on.
 Mir. Ballinger gave as one reason for not desiring to take up new work the lack of funds to carry on more than was being undertaken at this time He stated that the department had but s11, ,000, 900 available and that the new projects would involve an ex- penditure of 15.OoOOOO.
 Director Newell decided after the meeting today that the immensity of the different irrigation schedules as presented by the various supervising engineers was simply over towering Every step must be deliberate," he said, and we shall probably go along pretty much as we have been doing heretofore in conducting operations The estimates sent in will be the basis of the budget for 1910"
 The demands of the territories as well as the states are important as indicating the extent of development being accomplished on the arid lands There was some talk of suspending work in the territories, but this idea was abandoned.
 The question of cutting out Idaho was considered, but nothing certain as to just what steps will be taken"

HOW PEACE WAS EFFECTED
The Enrolling Clerks Are to Be Allowed to Change the Bill So as to Meet the Views of the Western Senators.

Washington, Aug. 3.-The complete collapse of all important opposition to the conference report on the tariff bill was evidenced today, when the senate agreed to vote on that measure at ? o'clock next Thursday. Half an hour after unanimous consent had been given the announcement that no sen ator was prepared to speak brought an early adjournment until noon to- morrow.
 Lack of interest in the proceedings was evident This was caused by an agreement among the western senators to vote on the conference report and to correct the hide and leather sched- ule by means Of concurrent resolu- tion to be acted upon separately. The form of the concurrent resolution was agreed upon in an informal conference in MT Aldrich's committee room. In structions are given by this resolution to enrolling clerks of the senate and house to change the language of the provision reducing the duties on boots, shoes and harness. The change will make dutiable at 10 per cent boots and shoes the upper leather of which is made wholly or in part from the hides or skins of cattle, including calf skins. A similar change will be made in rela- tion to harness, saddles and saddlery.
 The effect is to make the reduced duties on boots and shoes and harness and saddlery to apply to articles com posed of leather from the hides and skins of cattle and calf skins, instead of confining reductions to articles made from hides which have hitherto been dutiable The range of reduction is greatly increased.
 The suggestion for an agreement to vote was made in the senate by MT. Bailey, representing the minority, and it was at once cOncurred in by MT. Al drich. The Texan intimated that there might be considerable debate on the concurrent resolution, but it was not believed the discussion could con sume many hours. NIT. Culberson gave notice that he would seek to amend the concurrent resolution by placing cotton bagging on the free list, that article having been placed there by the senate and removed by the con ference committee.
 A question by MT. Newlands in the debate on the conference report called forth a statement from MT Aldrich that he believed the provision giving the president authority to gather in formation relating to the enforcing of the maximum clause was broader and would be found to be more effective than was contemplated by the clause as originally adopted by the senate.
 Announcing that he could not vote for the report, MT. Clapp spoke at length in denunciation of the measure, and NIT. McCumber spoke briefly in its support.
 At 1O:0S, no senator being prepared to speak. the senate adjourned until tomorrow at noon.
