WASHINGTON, April

»1.—The

Senate

lias ill last passed tlio world's fair 1)111 by liie decisive voto of to 13. Of the two amendments reported liy the committee tho one providing for a naval review in New York harbor is left in the bill, while the provisions for the dedication of a statue to Columbus at Washington were defeated.

On motion of Senator Ilawley (Conn.) the Senato proceeded to consider tho House bill "to provide for celebrating the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus, by holding an international exhibition of arts, industries, manufactures and tho product of the soil, mine and sea, in tho city of Chicago, in tho State of Illinois." The only amendment reported by tho Senate committeo is tho Insertion of a now section providing for a naval review in New York harbor in April, 1888, and for the unvailing of a statue of Christopher Columbus at Washington.

Senator llale (Mo.) inquired of Sonata1 Hawloy whether it was intended that tho Government should furnish the statue of Columbus.

Senator Ilawley replied In tho affirmative and stated that a bill for that purpose had already passed the Senato and was now pending in the House.

Senator Vest (.Mo.) said that itsoemod to lie assured that because tho IIouso had passed the bill, the Senato was under some coercion to pass it. Ho protested against such an assumption. The bill would probably pass tiie Senato by an over* whelming majority, but no measure should ever pass the Senate with his vote on tho assumption that the judgment of tho House was coercivo on tho Senate. That would bo for tho Senato to abrogate its constitutional functions. Senator Vest continued: "I desire to repeat what I have previously declared, that I am opposed to this fair. I represent lio city, or corporation, or interest. I have all along suiil that 1 was opposed to the fair, and my constituents have known from the beginning what I thought about It. We have no money lor a spectacular aflair of this sort. The fanners of the country, struggling as they are under debts and mortgages, have no limn or money for this business. I know that the municipality of Chicago offers IIO.OOO.CHXI for tlie expenses of the fair, but 11,500,000 must bo paid by the Government. That 81,500,iX) we can not afford to spend." "From the beginning of this contest it has beep, simply a piratical warfare between tho re Lit cities of the country. If tho one-tenth part of what the representatives of theso cities have said about each other is true then nono of them is tit to control tho destinies of this great enterprise. "1 am not against Chicago. There arc many reasons that it this fair is to be held ltl:ould. be held in Chicago. The city best typliics the immense eommcrcial resources of the new w.,rid: the palace of the millionaire and tho lnit of tho laborer stand side by side in that city and bring out most clearly the deadly methods of our trusts and combines and money ring's. If the farmer is to go to any city to HCC a fair 1 want him to go to Chicago. 1 as a Senator can not give any support to this bill, 1 do not believe it will be a success. If this fair goes lo Chicago wo are responsible for it. Tho honor of tho Nation and of the Government is at stake and if the fair goes to Chicago I am willing, although opposed to it, to vote the last dollar In the. treasury to make a success of it. Tho count ry does not want this fair, and it never has asked for it.*'

Senator Hawley said he thought tho Senator from Missouri was mistaken in his assumption that any part of tho constitutional freedom of the Senate is to be curtailed in tho handling of this bill. The House more nearly represents tlio people, and it is generally regarded that tho voto of the House decides the question of location. Tho House bill was very excollently drawn. It provided very comprehensively for the allotment of space of exhibitors, for the detailed management of the exposition when organized, and for splendid Government display. The guarantee fund of Chicago is as responsible as any subscription can be, and will realize about

So.OUO,-

000. A plan for raising an additional 55,000,000 has been adopted by tho Chicago corporation.

Senator Gorman, (Md.) moved to striko out that part of the bill providing for a naval review, and to substitute an amendment appropriating SM0,000 for memorial building in Washington in which should be displayed antiquities and rolics of historical interest.

Senator Ilawley said such a building was already in Washington that was being used expressly for tho purpose contemplated by tho amendment. It was tlio National Museum. Senator Gorman's amendment was rejected by an almost unanimous vote.

Tho question then recurred upon tho amendment of the committee providing for a National naval review. SenatorStewart. (Nov.) said he doubted tho propriety of having any such review. Ho failed to see its practical uses. Chicago had won the fair and was entitled to all tho honor attending its success. 11c did not believe in dividing that honor by holding side-shows elsewhere.

Senator Chandler (X. H.) thought a naval review in New York would bo of help to Chicago. It would cost tho country but little, and would bo of immense benefit.

Senator Evarts (N. Y.) argued in favor of the naval review. It was tho only feature of tho entire project that would set forth appropriately tho discovery of America by Columbus, which was essentially a maritime) event, and ought therefore to bo commemorated by a maritime display. Senator llale (Me.) also argued at length in favor of tho amendment.

Senator MePherson (N. J.) did not think Si0,000,000 would bo enough to pay for this Immense exposition and did not think Chicago would bo warranted in launching out upon tho largo scale of expenditure necessary. lie should therefore vote for any bill granting Chicago a liberal appropriation.

Senator Cullom (111.) said that tho voto in the House had, in tho minds of the great body of American people, determined the (juostiou as to where the fair should be held. Tho verdict had been in favor of Chicago without undue influence, without any corruption, without any special struggle In Congress. There was no purpose on tho part of Chicago other than to carry out to tho very letter tho pledges which she had made. On tho other hand, Chicago would make tho fair agrqnd success and would manifest her appreciation of tho groat honor which had been conferred upon her.

Senator Shorman (0.) said tho fair

CRA.WFORDSY1LLE, INDIANA

would be a success. Tho peoplo must' make it so. It was not a fancy show,but a beneficial one, that would demonstrate to tho nations of tho earth our wealth, glory, and how wo havo not only tho population but the eloments to make a groat country. It was not a question whether the Senato should agree because the House passed tbo bill. The people of tho United Statos had settled tho question of a fair before it came to tho Sonato with a unanimity not to bo questioned. There was not and is not now any controversy as to site.

During tho discussion Senator HI air (N. II.) moved an amendment providing for an exhibition of tho public schools and parado of tho public-school children at Chicago, also for tho erection of a statue to Elizabeth, both of which aftor some debate wore lost.

Senator Hoar (Mass.) moved to strike out tho amendment providing for a statue to Columbus, pending which Senator Hlair moved to amend that provision by requiring tho statue to bo made by an Amorican artist and from American material, which was lost.

Senator Hoar's motion to strike out tho Columbus statuo amendment was then adopted and a vote was taken on the amendment providing for a naval rovlew, which was adopted by a vote of 28 to 27.

Tho section as adopted roads: "Sec. 8. That the President Is hereby cm", powered and directed to hold a navul review In New York harbor in April. 1893, and to extend to foreign nations an invitation to senftshliuH. of-war to Join tho United States navy in rendezvous at Hampton ltoads and proceed thcfico to said review."

Senator Hlair moved to add to-the first section a provision that no Intoxicating liquors, wines or beers shall be sold, to bo used as a beverage, within tho limits of the exposition grounds, and made a short speech in support of it.

Senator liutler (S. 0.) thought that that was a matter which might safoly be left to tho peoplo of Chicago, and thoroforo ho moved to lay the amendment on tho table. Tho motion was agreed to—yeas, 33 nays, 15.

Tho bill (which had been under consideration as in committee of tho whole) was then reported to tho Senato, and a vote was again taken by yeas and nays on the amendment for a naval roview. The voto resulted: Yoas, 27 nays, 25 so tho provision remains in tho bill.

Tho bill was then passed—yoas, 43 nays, 13. Tho nogative votes were Senators Harbour, Berry, Blackburn, Cockroll, Colto, George, Hampton, Morgan, I'ugh, Reagan, Vance, Vest and •Walthall.

KKW YOUK, April 22.—Tho following1 editorial in tho World is tho talk of the town. Whether it puts tho paper or tho ox-President in tho worst light is matter of debate: "The interview with ex-Presidont rover Cleveland, published in the World of Thursday last, has excited considerable comment in the press throughout tho country. Aftor a thorough investigation wo are satlMlcd thnt all Mr. Cleveland said (or publication of a per.somil character was contained in the flr^t fourteen lines of the reinurks attributed to him, and that he did not use the coarse and intemperate personal expressions accredited to him in a subsequent portion of the interview.

GuTintiR, I. T., April 22.—Captain Couch, widely known as tho organizer of tho Oklahoma movement, died Monday morning at 8 o'clock. His death was tho result of a wound inflicted by J. C. Adams with a Winchester riflo April 4. When it bccamo known that •Captain Couch could not live twenty-four hours a parly was organized to lynch Adams. United States Marshal Walker was informed of this, and on Sunday boarded a train with tho prisoner for Wichita, Kan. Ho was placed in jail thore. Couch was widely respected. [Captain \V. I.. Coueli was born in Wilkes County. -N. Novembers, 1S50. In the fall of ISTtt he removed to Wl.hila and entered the live-sloe'' '""siness, 1SSI he met Cuptaln lJaync, whom he aided In the organization of the celebrated Oklahoma Colony in li*79 and ISS0. In 1SS3 tho two entered the territory with COO men und 110 teams. The colony settled about fourteen milos northeast of Oklahoma City, where tho whole outllt was placed under arrest by Captain Carroll, of tho Ninth Cavalry, and escorted to the Kansas line, aud told lo never return. After beinir ar.-este and brought back several times, Couch iu IKS I took charge of nnothor party. lie had mcantimo been tried in the United States Court and acquitted. Ills frieud Payne had dropped dead before the expedition started, and when tho party were again nrrested at Stillwater Couch declared that, as he had been arrested and uequitted on the cliargo of entering the territory, lie was disobeying no law and would stand firm. The military being far outnumbered, Lieutenant Day, who was

command, retreated to wait reinforcements. For thirty days tho situation was unchanged, when Captain Mutch, with elghteon companies of regulars, arrived on the scene. Even then Captain Couch refused to surrender and pr.'pared for a defense, Dut Captain Hatch, rather than cause bloodshed, cut oft tho colonists1 supplies and literally starved them out, aud tho boomers retuctantly abandoned their position, repairing to Arkansas City. Five of the leaders wero released by the courts. Couch next went to Washington, sccurcd the services of Hon. Sidney Clarke, and the two drafted the original bill for the formation of tho Oklahoma territory, which wuB passed by tho Fiftieth Congress, in 1889. May 1 Captain Couch was elected mayor of the town. His claim was contested by another "sooner," J. C. Adams, who secured tho filing from the Gullirle land-otllee. Couch again went to Washington in the interest of the "soouers." lie met Willi no succors and returned. Having resigned the mayoralty November 11 Captain Couch settled upon his claim upon his return. In fighting for the possession of this he was killed.]

A TALK WITH PRESIDENT GOMPERS.

Ho Tells How tlio Tollers* Object Is to Be Attained—Indiana Miners Almost Sure to Strike—Labor Troubles

Abroad.

.•••• 1.A1IOKS' nATTI.K.

CHICAGO, April 22.—Samuel Gompors, president of tho Amorican Fodoration of Labor, ,vas interviewed in this city yesterday. He said tho eight-hour day was tho sole Idea now being considered by tho labor world. To tho ond of obtaining it, toilers tho world over aro concentrating all their onorgy, ability and intelligence. In the history of the social and economic movements of tho world there has not been one which received at once and completely the same sympathy and support that has boon accorded to tho eight-hour movement It has covered Europe, and on May 1 tho working population of that continent will demand tho eight-hour day. Mr. Gompors continued: "We want tnc eight-hour day because it will Improve tho condition of those employed and afford employment to thousands now idle, and because it will give us time to think. While we are accomplishing this we can consider what Improvement it will bo best to next effect. Wo ore doing it with the lcust iKjsslblo Injurious results to business or commerce. We do not want to Htop the wheels of industry. We want to help them work more smoothly. We want to removo instead of lncreaso friction. So wo proceed by degrees. Wc havo singled out the eight hour day as the llrst thing to be attained. Then wc linve selected only one trade for which at first this Improvement must be secured. Wo have choaon the carpenters as the first craft for which win this lienetlt. When the carpcntors shall have won wo will demand It for the miners and mine-laborers. Then other trades will be taken up and pushed forward. In this way the ontire chango of the Industrial system to the clglit-hour duy shall have been accomplished with tho least cffect on the country'^ business. "Tlieit! Is no doubt of the success of the movement. In the American Federation of Labor, to whioh by common consent tho beginning of of tho eight-hour movement is granted, there are 6.10,000 members. In tho movement besides these there arc more than enough to bring tho force to 1,000,000 men. "Wo have made great advances Bince 1880. Tho best of these Is that wo havo educated tho educated. Intelligent men no longer believe that the adoption of tho eighthour day means social und cconomlo revolution. The unskilled laborer has not bcon forgotten. Every roductton of the hours of labor, every advancc of wages secured by the skilled laborer redounds to the benefit of the unskilled olass lust as mueh as that of those for whom these advantages are ostensibly obtained. "Wo will sccurc tho eight-hour day for tho workmen of the world—not If It takes all summer—but if It takes tho rest of our lives."

At a mooting of tho now bosses' association Monday night a new arbitration committee was appointed to confer with tho Carpenters' Council. The committeo is instructed to say to tho strikers that tho association is ready to employ 8.S00 men, to recognize tho union, employ nono but union men and pay union wages for an eight-hour day.

The strikers say that, no work will b« resumod, no relief from the present stagnation in the building trades will b# obtainod until tbo bossos as a whole shall havo recognizod and treated with the union.
