The House Preparing to Make Some Oh nges.

AN IMPORTANT INQUIRY ORDERED.

Introduced.

TUB TARIFF QUKSTIOJF.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.—'The house of representatives of the Fifty-second conpress lias deurccd that the first investigation into the operations of tlie MoKin ley law shall be conducted by the committee on agriculture. This arrangement lias the Informal sanction of the democrats of' tho ways and means committee,, as tho inquiry of Chairman Hatch and his committee is to bo directed particularly to the effect that the high tariff has had upnn the agricultural interests of tho country. It is understood that later on the committee on manufactures will be authorized to conduct an inquiry as to the efTcct of the tariff law on the manufacturers and skilled wageworkers, and thus in the end reports will be made on the various phases of the new law by as many different committees.

Tariff to the Front.

Mr. MeMillin (Tenn.) presided over the house in the absence of Speaker Crisp, who was confined to his room by a headache. After some formal business Mr. Hatch (Mo.) brought tho tariff question to t.he front by moving to suspend the rules and adopt a resolution requesting tho committee on agriculture to report the effect upon agriculture of the present tariff law.

Mr. Fuilgton SjH'ttks.

In the discussion which followed Mr. Funston (Kan.) raised his voice in opposition. If there could be a fair and impartial investigation of the effects of the present tariff law on the agricultural interests he would be in favor of it. It could hardly be expected, however, that an investigation of this character could be made without being made upon a party basis. Tho fact that the house went into this investigation was a declaration on the part of the house that, it believed tho McICinley bill was injuring the farmers of the country. This was not true. The duties on the farmers' products had been increased, while the things tho farmers had to buy were to-day cheaper than before the McKinley biil was passed.

Didn't Dare Repeal the Law. But why this investigation? Why did not the democrats bring in a bill to repeal the McKimey act? They dared not do- it No such bill would come from the committee on ways and means. He understood that the chairman of that committee would report. a bill to remove the duty on wool, one of the products of the farm. The only enemy the farmer had was the democratic party. Why did not tho committee report a bill repealing the present tariff law? Because it was afraid of the question. Because it did not want to touch the subject until after the next election. It contented itself with condemning the McKinley law.

Mr. Enloe, replying to the remark made by Mr. Funston that the democrats dare not bring in a bill to repeal the McKinley law, stated, that he had introduced a measure for that purpose.

Hurtling Corn In Knnsna.

Mr. Simpson (Kan.) spoke of tho depression of the farming industry in his state. Referring .to the burning of corn as fuel in his state he said that by the light of that corn fire the farmers read the history of tho republican party, and that was the reason that the alliance had carried the state at. the last election.

Mr. Hatch made a one-minute speech in support of the resolution and bore testimony to the fairness and impartiality of the committee on agriculture in dealing with questions of this character.

The resolution was then adopted without division. Mr. Hatch, who has been pressing this resolution, says ho regarded its adoption as the first shot firod against the target of the McKinley law and believes that it will have its effect. He thinks that an investigation will sliowthat that law has been detrimental to the agricultural interests and that tho committeo on agriculture will find no difficulty in obtaining voluntary witnesses to testify as to tho existing facts.

Three New Tariff Bills.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.—The ways and means committee will report three tariff bills to tho liouso during the present week. This much was determined upon at the meeting ot the democratic majority Monday and the measures to be reported are the Springer free wool bill, tho Bryan free binding twine bill and tho Turner bill placing cotton ties, cotton bagging and machinery for making tho same upon the free list. A meeting for the whole committee has been called for this morning, at which these measures will be brought to the front and the preliminary steps taken to •end the bills to the house before the close of the week.

The bill of Representative Turner (Ga.) placing cotton ties, cottou bagging machinery for manufacturing tl» same, etc., upon tho free list is c..o lered of great importance to cotton growers, and its provisions are t'm. iliur to the public.

The free binding-twine bill, which the democrats of the committee also decided to report, is very brief and merely provides that "from and after its passage all. binding twine manufactured in whole or in part fron is le. or tampico fiber, jute, manilla. il grass or sunn shall, when imporu d, be exempt from duty."

Tho various binding-twine bills were reported to a special committee, of which Mr.' Bryan (Neb.) was chairman, and tho bill is reported by the •uboommlttM and aeoepted by the

FIGHTING AT CHIHUAHUA. Mexican Troops Kuft'er llc»rr !.•••- Priest* Foment tlie Trouble.

CITY OF MEXICO, Feb. 16.—The country about Chihuahua is in a troubled condition. l'eoplo have Hocked to Temochi by hundreds, and urged ou by tho priests have declared themselves against the government, and soldiers were sent over from Guerrero to capture tho leaders and disarm tho people.

The first detachment of troops entered Tcinoclii without resistance, but soon fell under tho influence of tho priests and joined tho revolutionary force?. A second detachment was sent and, upon arriving at the town, were mot by tlia revolutionists and a bloody battlo was fought in which twenty regulars and nine rebels were killed and wounded on either side. The troops succeeded in capturing the town, but the rebels escaped to Sonora, robbing and plundering along tho route.

Following closely upon this another battle was fought at £7os Almas in which the revolutionists came out victorious and without -the loss of a man. Eight federal soldiers and their commandant were killed, and arms and ammunition captured and distributed among the revolutionists, who, up to the time of the departure of the miner mentioned above, still held possession of the town. The news of this victory spread rapidly and encouraged others to join the revolution. From every pass in the mountains swanned men eager to join the movement, until the federal soldiers surrounded tho town and permitted no one to enter. A few days later the federals and revolutionists had a skirmish at Yeckery, in which three of the latter were killed and a number captured.

The loss to the government troops is not known, but it is thought *.o be larger than that sustained by the rebels, who were fortified in adobe buildings and had advantage of position. People are gathering in all the little towns and giving the government a great deal of trouble in dispersing them. Hundreds congregated at Noria before the federal troops arrived, but being poorly armed made no resistance and were held prisoners for two days in the plaza and then released and ordered to return to their homes.

Oov. Boyil'i Hpeerli.

"lam governor of Nebraska, put iher« by tbf sovereign will of the people, expressed by Uuin through the ballot-box ami vindicated from iht highest tribunal in our glorious republic. Th« period of service remaining to iw* as an executive is limited, but I hojw In tho few months re* ixmintng to be still able to do .something to vindicate the expressions of your will. Thertj are still grave questions of public moment to bo dealt with, aud 1 promise you here to .exorcise every honorable effort in your behalf in meeting them. 1 musl confess, too. to a per•annul gratification to myself in the restoration to me of those rights which 1 esteem above otUee, tho power* and privileges of an American cit iten.

Proud of Ilia Clthi'iishlp.

"I have nevqr been a citizen of any other nalion than the United State*, want no prouder distinction than to be known as a citizen of tho foremost republic in the world. I have leen subjected to the epithet alien, hurled at me in partisan madness by political opponents, but I have never deserved it. During all the years cr iny manhood, from the pioneer days when I with others began to lift Nebraska from a sparsely settled territory to the splendid achievement of its present state* hood, 1 have ever had in mind the deepest conviction ot the responsibilities of citizenship. have ever tried to discharge the duties and the requirements of that citizenship to the honor aud credit of each, nnd have acquitted myself, 1 believe, to my own ..satisfaction and yours.

A Jo.vful Moment.

"The suspense of the few months during which an attempt WHS made to spread a cloud of doubt upon my right to exercise the functions of that citizenship has been more severe upon tno than any of you can fully appreciate, ond when that suspense was lifted from mo by the almost unanimous dictum of the supreme court of the United States no greater joy and gratification was bestowed upon me. than even when theelec* .Hon returns proclaimed me to bo your choice to the highest office within your gift. I see be* fore me here to*day men of various shades of political belief, representative republicans and independents as well as democrat#.

I have the right to construe their presence us testimony to their satisfaction in seeing the grave question which arose in our state affairs settled wholly within the law and to the rendering of full justice und the triumph of right. I consider the preseuce of you all, not as a personal tribute to myself so much as to the vindication of the right of the majority to rule."

A banquet and ball were given at the statehotise in the evening.
