to that effect, and will in all probability lie the prominent topic of ilebate daring the entire week. There are other measures which may claim attention, but none of them are likely to receive it without the consent of the managers of
the tariff bill.
Several amendments to the bill were offered at once by the committee on finance, and then Senator Voorhees, as chairman of the finance committee, led off with an argument in the bill’s support. He will be replied to by Senator Allison, but beyond these speeches it is not known in what order senators will be heard. It is quite likely that Senators McPherson and Hill, on the Democratic side, will sjieak early in the week, and it is known that on the Republican side of the chamber Senators Hale. Lodge, Cullom. Hoar, Hawley, Morrill and Mitchell of Oregon are prepared to speak, but it is not probable that even a majority of these can be heard during the present week. Indeed, if the speeches
are anticipating their choicest entertainment. Wilson is no respecter of persons in the courtroom, following faithfully the axiom that all men are equal in the eyes of the law, and he has an unusual faculty as to planning traps for a wit ■
i ness.
Miss Pollard and her lawyers have copious notes from which to draw mai terial for cross-examination. The Kentucky colony here was keyed up to a frenzy of anticipation regarding the course that Colonel Breckinridge would take in attempting to refute the testimony ot Mrs. Blackburn. Had he accused the widow of misstating facts trouble would have been likely to follow, but that susjiense has been relieved by his diplomacy in stating in instances wherein they differed that it was a matter of recollection. » There will lie but little testimony for the defense after the colonel leaves the stand, and most of that will be by dejiositiou. Then the rebuttal will come, in which Miss Pollard will probably take the stand again, and the old principal of Wesleyan college will lie called to refute the testimony of Rankin Rosselle, to
ton and Florence who resisted the inquisition, borders on an uncontrollable condition. As stated in previous dispatches, trouble began with the death of spies and citizens in a conflict at the Darlington railway station here. The governor’s efforts to secure the aid of militia to enforce the work of the liquor law spies have been confronted with difficulty on every hand, one after another of the companies refusing to comply with orders from the chief executive to repirt for duty, making it necessary for him to ransack the state in the attempt to secure enough militiamen to

IIKGINNTNO OF THK TKOCBLB. Authentic Acrount of the Outbreak at the
Burlington Station.
Darlington, April 2.—The most reliable statement concerning the tight which opened the trouble is that two young men, Floyd and Rodgers, were having a fisticuff at the station, where the spies were preparing to leave after making raids. Chief of Police Dargan came on the scene and was soon joined by other citizens, among them Frank Norment and Mr. Redmond. Spy McLendon interfered in the fight and Chief Dargan tried to keep the men apart. Redmond also attempted to quiet matters, and lie and Norment passed words with McLendon, who drew his pistol and shot Redmond and then Norment and himself received a bullet in the ab-
domen.
From this on there was a fusillade of bullets, citizens headed by Dargan and McCullough responding with bullet for bullet, with the result of two on each

The building was occupied by the Whiteside clothing store, the American express office and Pyle's liarber shop, and in this latter place were seven persons, part of whom were waiting for their Saturday night shave at the time of the explosion. Three of these, William Pyle, the proprietor.

VICTIMS OF A JOKE. ; Breckinridge Supporter* Attracted to Cincinnati by a Fake Telegram. Cincinnati. April 2. — The Burnet House Saturday received from Washington a telegram engaging quarters for Colonel Breckinridge to hold a conference there yesterday with his constitu-

McLendon, who was put in jail as the leader of the shooting, was spirited away yesterday by friends. The enraged people of this and other localities then directed attention to the abhorred dispensaries, and scarcely one escaped a raid in which the state's liquors were emptied on the ground and broken laittles strewn kneedeep about
the places.
