would prohibit the fullest possible debate upon all questions as lone as the debate 'was continued in a business-like manner, he was unquestionably in favor of modifying the rules so that the debate in general could be terminated at the end of a reasonable time, and a day liied for the debate in detail to clone, and a vote be reached upon the amendments and the main question. lie stated that while in tho proceedings of the caucus it did not appear that it was the determination of tho Kepublicans to take up the election bill before the end of the session, he had no doubt that it would come np in due time, and he added that the modification of the rules would not be made until it became apparent that the Democrats intended to oiler factions opposition to prevent a iinal vote, lie said that while there were objections to almost every kind of an election bill which could be proposed, -when it came to the pith of the general proposition to funherextend federal supervision over congressional elections, every Republican favored the proposition. The opposition, he said, was simply as to the details of the measure. 8TTJ31P SPEECHES IN THE SENATE.

Instead of Debating the Tariff the Solons D itcms the Merits and Demerits of Democracy. Washington, July 29. The Senate met at 11 a. m. After the call of the roll, in order to procure the attendance of a quorum, Mr. Morgan presented resolutions adopted at a public meeting of Republicans in Birmingham, Ala., against the passage of the election bill. Placed on the calendar. Mr. Sherman o fie red a resolution (which went over till to-morrow) for the daily meeting of the Senate at 10 a. m. Mr. Ingalls introduced a bill to establish a department of communication, and said that it was prepared by, and introduced at the request of, the Wage-workers' Alliance. The tariff bill was taken up the pending question being on Mr. McPherson's amendment offered yesterday to reduce the duty on acetic or pyroligneous acid not exceeding the specitio gravity of 147-1000 from 13 to lcent per pound; and exceeding that gravity f rom 4 to 3 cents per pound. The amendment was rejected by a paity vote yeas, 20; nays, 27. The Clerk then proceeded with the reading of the bill, but had only got through two lines when he was stopped by Mr. Mcpherson with the remark that he was moving a little too hastily. lie Mcpherson had something to say about the first line, fixing the dnty on boracio acid at 5 cents ter pound. At the present rate (4 cents a pound) the duty on boracic acid was 78.3 per cent, and now it was proposed to make it 91.91 per cent ad valorem. It could be put on board a vessel in Italy at 4 cents a pound, so that the proposed duty would be 125 per cent. lie quoted a statement of Mr. Ricdringbaus before the linance committee to the effect that boracic acid could be produced in California at 2 cents a pound; so that the proposed duty would amount to 225 per cent ad valorem. lie move to reduce the rate from 4 to 32 cents a pound. The motion was rejected by a party vote yeas, 25; nays. 20. ' Mr. Jones of Arkansas addressed the Senate in opposition to the bill, making a regulation Democratic speech. The next line of the bill having been read by the clerk, "chromio acid 6 cents per pound," Mr. McPherson moved to amend by substituting the existing duty, 15 per cent ad valorem. ' Mr. Gorman said that Democratic Senators wanted a free discussion of the bill and Qothing more. They wanted it considered Intelligently. But the Republican Senators wanted to rush it through the Senate at railroad speed. He warned the Senator from Rhode Island Mr. Aldrich that he would expedite the passage of the bill by frank and honest statements of what was contained in it Mr. Aldrich said that in 18S8 the tariff had been discussed in every field and workshop, and on every hustings, and that there was no occasion for any man to plead ignorance of what that question meant, or of the provisions of a bill which had been before the Senate and the country for three years. The country understood that the talk about explanations and the attempt to drive Republican Senators to make stump speeches for political effect was simply to delay action on the tariff bill, which delay was destructive to every business interest. But notwithstanding the Senator's taunts, the Senators on the Republican side would not be led, so far as he iMr. Aldrich could control them, into that :ind of general debate on the bilL As questions came up. item by item, the mem bers of the finance committee would be prepared to show and conclusively from a protective stand-point that the changes were justifiable. Mr. Gorman reminded tho Republican side of the chamber of Mr. Plumb's statement that that party was in danger, and of his warning that it wouid have to increase taxation within eighteen months. He also referred to Mr. Blaine as the one man who, in twenty years, had been able to bring the Republican party into line; as the only man who. while abroad, had the courage and ability to write an answer to President Cleveland's tarift measure that gave to the drooping Republicans hope and faith, and final victory; and he said that Mr. Blaine had, through the Senators from Maine, told Republican Senators that, if they passed the bill as reported, they would not only destroy the possibility of increasing trade with the countries south of the United States, but would bankrupt the treasury in eighteen months, for that was the meaning of it Mr. Hiscock Tepelled the general charge that the Republican success at the last election was tho result of the influence of manufacturers or monopolists, and he asserted that in the State of New York, wherever Democratic majorities were roiled up, the steps of the whisky interest could be marked. Tho saloon and the tippling-shop had been the recruiting stations of the Democratio party. It was not in the great manufacturing centers of New York State that the largest Republican majorities were rolled np, but in the agricultural portions of the State, while the criminal population of the cities were the natural allies and constituents of the Democratic party. In reference to a statement as to the refusal of the finance committee to give hearings to persons interested, Mr. Hiscock said that it had refused to give hearings to the representatives of the manufacturers of Germany, France, England and Belgium. The place for them to be heard was -where the Democratic members of that committee were in conference. He did not know how much money had been contributed to the Democratic election fund by those interested; but he knew that every day that the tariff bill was delayed was largely to the profit of the foreign manufacturers. They were interested in'its defeat Mr. Voorhees congratulated Mr. Gorman on his great victory in breaking the predetermined silence on the Republican side of the chamber. As to the speech of the Senator from New York, which ' had been extorted under the lash, it was the same old tirade of calumny and abuse against the Democratic party. If that was all there was of it. he Mr. VoorheesJ would let it go. But it seemed that there was no one to speak fairly for the great Democratic city of New York. He arraigned that Senator for his slander on that city, simply because it was opposed to him politically. Tho Senator had spoken of the vice, and crime, and intemperance of the city of New York; but he Mr. Voorhees asserted that the very Gibraltar of the Republican party in that city, tho only district in which it had increased its majority of late, was the Eighth Assembly district, where Johnny O'Brien had been leading the worst elements of society, and where immorality, vice and crime of all descriptions were so rife that a man's life was not safe there after sundown. Tho Senator Mr. Hiscock owed an apology to the great metropolis on Manhattan Island. He had heard such stigma attempted to be cast on New York beiore; but it ill became one of her sons to retail that old time slander in the Senate. After further debate tho bill was laid aside and the House joint resolution to continue appropriations under existing laws up to the 14th of August, was presented and discussed, and passed. After an executive session tho Senate adjourned. Killed III Father for Cause. Mississippi City. Miss., July 29. A reJtort reached here this evening that Abner Jreeland, a well-known resident of this county, was shot and killed at his home about nineteen miles from here on last Saturday by his son.

The President of the reoublic and the national Cabinet are giving orders from the national government house. The Finance Minister is at liberty." It is signed by Juan Garcia. Senor Garcia, the signer of the dispatch, is the Argentine Minister of Finance, lie was taken prisoner by the revolutionists at the beginning of the outbreak on Saturday. In the House of Commons to-day Sir James Fergusson. Secretary of tne Foreign 'Office, stated that the British minister at Buenos Ayres had sent a cable dispatch to the Foreign Office, stating that Tresident Celman had left Buenos Ayres, and that the negotiations between the government aud the leaders of the revolution were proceeding. A dispatch to the Times, dated Buenos Ayres, July 28, 7 p.m., says: "It is reasserted that terms for a settlement between the government and the revolutionary forces have been agreed upon. According to these tne civilians who have taken part in the insurrection will not be punished. All the captains of the revolutionary forces and all officers above the grade of captain will be deprived of their rank. The artillery of the insurrectionists will be surrendered to-morrow." This dispatch is Presideut Celman's version of the situation at Buenos Ayres. Private dispatches received here from that city, dated July 3, 9:S0 p. M., state that there is no change in the situation, andnochancefor a compromise between the two factious. The matter, tho dispatch says, must be fought out. , The Paris Temps to-day publishes a dispatch from Buenos Ayres stating that the government and leaders of the revolutionary movement have reached a settlement. President Celman, the dispatch says, has resigned and has been succeeded by ViceE resident Pelligrini as President, and quiet as been restored. General Mitre, who was formerly President of the Argentine Kepublic, and who has been residing in Paris for some time, has suddenly taken his departure from that city. Tho Times has tho following from Buenos Ayres: b a. M. The Union Civica pickets are extending. Provisional President Alteni states that negotiations are proceeding and are expected to be successful. 9 P. m. Both sides have been reinforced. The Celmanites are arming a number of Gouch cut-throats at the government house. 12 M. The squadron is tiring at the government house. The tiring has recommenced in several parts of the city. The Celmanites are evacuating their positions. H.2 P. m. Celma, Koca and all the Minis ters have left the government house and are now in the Twenty-fifth of May street. The presidential party has kept within.the lines of the troops. Celman is deadly pale. Latterly every ship's shot, save one, has struck the government house. 4 P. M. Atlem and Lopez, tho insurgent chiefs, state that they have ordered the squadron to cease firing. They are getting their men away as quietly as possible. The reason the victorious Union Civica has practically yielded is because they have no cartridges left. They only had 100,000, instead of 1.000.000, as they had calculated. The men wanted to attack with bayonets, but, at tho risk of their own liven, the Union Civica chiefs declined to permit such terrible bloodshed. 6 P. M. The Union Civica troops are quieter and more disposed to disarm. OUATEJLVLANS ROUTED. The Salvadorlans Said to Ilave Won Eleven Battles Thus Far. City of Mexico, Jnly 29. GeronimoPou agent of San Salvador, says that in the eleven battles fought up to date the Sal vadorians have come out victorious. The rest of the Guatemalan army is fleeing in all direction towards the interior, and not a single Guatemalan soldier is left on the frontier. A revolution against Barrillas has broken out in the Lastern department. Several well-known generals head it, and tho downfall of the present Guatemalan government is considered more than probable. Bamlas is pleading for foreign intervention in his favor. Mr. Jacob Baise. Guatemalan consul general in New York, has received the fol lowing dispatch from Minister Dieguese. of uuaiemaia, at Mexico: uuatemaia ac cepted war provoked by Ezeta. Honduras, .Nicaragua and Costa Kico signed treaty with Guatemala to demand resignation of Ezeta and to re-establish legal regimen in Salvador."

An attempt was made Sunday night to as sassinate President Barrilas, of Guatemala, by a native Indian, who was found con cealed in Barrilas's bedroom, armed with a matchette and a revolver. The President was with a number of guests in his parlor, when he was rushed upon by the Indian, whose name is Xaching Tubasq. With his long knife, or matchette, the Indian attempted to cut Barrilas to the ground. The President eluded the blow, drew his revolver, kept the man at bay, aud shouted for his aids-de-camp.l Throe rushed in and seized and disarmed the Indian, who was marched off to prison, and placed in communicado, or in solitary confinement The Indian confessed that he had been employed by tho Conservatives to do the

deed. He gave the names of Antonio Valenzuela. Dr. Pedro Molina Floris, and Jose Diaz Duran, a lawyer, as the principals in the affair, with whom he treated. Ho said that Duran had sworn to take tho life of Barrilas, because the latter had exiled Duran's brother and had ruined him. The

Cabinet to-dav was a stormy one, and Bar rilas has not yet signified whether he will abandon the Salvador campaign or not. The disaffection among the troops con tinues, and they have not vet been paid. American Dispatches Delayed. City of Mexico, July 29. The United States is making official inquiries to ascertain what has become of the telegraphic correspondence of Minister Mizner, resident in Guatemala, for the State Department at Washington. It is evident that Mr. Mizner has endeavored to send telegrams from Guatejnala to La Libertad for transmission to Washington by cable and that they have been blocked in Guatemala. The telegraph line from Guatemala to La Libertad hugs the road where the late battles have been fought, and it is supposed by both Minister Diguez and confidential agent Pou that the wires have been cut by tho armies, and that Mr. Mizner's dispatches are consequently filed away in some office, where they probably will remain, unless ordered back to Guatemala or sent through the Salvadorian army for transmission via Libertad to their destination. Senor Pou says the censorship over telegrams in Salvador does not extend to the official business of any neutral power, and was established to prevent Guatemala from sending out ialso reports in regard to the affairs of Salvador. Minister Ryan called on Senor Pou today regarding the blockade of the Mizner. correspondence, and Senor Pou immediately cabled to his government asking that inquiry be made into tho matter, and to ascertain whether the correspondence was detained in Salvador or Guatemala.

Chancellor Von Caprivl Fubliahea a Memorandom on the Heligoland Deal. Berlin, July 20. The Reichzanger today publishes Chancellor Von Caprivi's memorandum of the Anglo-German agreement relative to territory in Africa. It begins by stating that the German colonial policy coming in contact with English schemes caused disagreeable complications. As negotiations on single points did not avail to complete a settlement it was decided to deal with the disputes from one stand-point After giving seriatim the grounds for the concessions in Africa made by Germany to England, the memorandum concludes by insisting upon the value of Heligoland in view of the national sentiment in regard to the island and of the island's military importance. When the island is occupied by Germany it will be difficult for an enemy to blockade the north coast of the empire, and its possession will give Germany more power in the North sea aud render it easy to defend the Baltic canal. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Bismarck's Notorious "Keptlle Fund for the Corruption of Newspapers to lie Divided."1 London, July 29. The announcement is made in Berlin that the "reptile fund" so named by Prince Bismarck when he cynically admitted in debate that he used it for the purpose of bribing newspapersis no longer to be applied to secret service purposes. Tho money placed at the disposal of the Chancellor will be duly accounted for in the public documents. Chancellor Von Caprivi also publishes an account of the uses to which the fund has been applied in former years, but the vagueness and lack of detail leave tho exact disposition of certain sums a matter of conjecture, so that Bismarck's famous statement remains unchallenged. The Chess Contest Bradford, July 29. The giants opened the ninth game of the match to-day before a very large assemblage of local devotees of the game. Lee, as in the previous contests in which he played the blacks, selected the French defense and got decidedly the best of the opening. Blackburn did not let slip his opportunity to turn the tables on his adversary. The voteran commenced with a most marvelously conceived combination, which Lee did not see at all. At first it seemed to the spectators that Blackburn had blundered when he sacrificed a piece, but after a series of moves it became evident that Lee was doomed, and he had to resign after fifty-six moves had been recorded. Blackburn's brilliant combination in this game will rank among the finest specimens of chess. The score now is: Blackburn, 8; Lee, 1; drawn, 5. The Austrian Royal Wedding. London, July 29.

A wrestling match between Ernest Roeber and a Russian wrestler named Malkors, to-night, drew together a large crowd and ended in a disturbance. The match took place at the National Theater, on the Bowery. The audience was composed largely of Roumanians and Hebrews, and when the aftair began it was evident that anything short of success for Malkors would' arouse the most pronounced displeasure. As the match went on excitement grew, and as Malkors was apparently getting worsted the crowd began to draw near to the stage. Shouts and cries were raised, and for a moment it looked as though the spectators would indulge in a little rough-and-tumble affair on their own account. Fearing a riot, acting Captain Horbelt ordered the crowd back and attempted to preserve order. His efforts, however, did not find favor with Captain Daily, the equestrian filter and broadswordsnian.who with a bound leaped on Captain Horbelt and struck him a blow in the mouth, cutting his lip and otherwise bruising him about the body. Horbelt fought his way out, however? and later had the satisfaction of seeing his assailant marched into the police station by detective Hqgan. PREDICTIONS PROVED FICTIONS. Instead of an Inflow of Silver Since the Bill Became a Law There Is' an Oat flow. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. New York. July 29. Over 1,250,000 ounces of silver bullion were shipped to London last week, and this week nearly as much has been ordered for shipment. Announcement was made this morning that 400.000 ounces more had been ordered for shipment on this week's steamships. This has given rise to much comment, because it has been predicted that as soon as the silver bill was passed this country would be flooded with the silver of foreign countries. The actual facts have been precisely the reverse. A month or so before the passage of the silver bill London sent over 1,500,000 ounces of silver bullion to this country. This was not because the Englishmen thought tho silver bill would pass, but, on the contrary, because they thought it would not pass, and they wished to profit by the higher price over here. Now tho stream has set in the other way, and it bids fair to continue until the demand for silver here to meet the requirements of the new silver bill becomes greater than the demand over there. In June, 1889, wo exported $1,609,421 silver bullion in excess of imports. In June, 1890, we imported SS74.4T5 in excess of exports. The head of the leading bullion brokerage house in this city said to-day: "There has been a great deal of talk relative to the cause of the present movement of silver to England. The truth of the matter is just this: Every summer England demands a large amount of silver to be sent to India to pay for wheat and cotton. The demand usually comes in August or September. This year it has come earlier, presumably owing to the fact that after Aug. 15 the government will begin to buy 4,500,000 ounces of silver per month for coinage under tho new silver bill. The present coinage is only $2,000,000 per month; and the increased amount required will drain tho availablo sources. "The public only hears of a part of the silver which goes abroad. Furthermore, much is bought for shipment which is not shipped for some weeks'afterward. Onr own house is holding a large amount bought in thr way to be shipped later. "When the silver bill becomes a law we shall see two contending forces lighting for silver. The result will be that the price will advance. The silver bill mav eventually result in an increased production of silver by the working of mines which have not hitherto been profitable, but it takes silver several months to get from the mines to oar market in New York; the effects of the increased production would not be felt just yet." Mississippi Constitutional Election. Jackson', Miss., July 29, The vote cast throughout the State to-day was very quiet. There was no opposition to the fourteen Democratic nominees to tho constitutional convention for the State at , large, and the Democratic local nominees were not opposed in as many as a halfdozen counties.

Benjamin'F. McCarty, J. P., called the first hearing of a Whitecap preliminary trial in the history of this county. The large court-room was p acked and jammed to the point of snflocation. Ten men, some of whom are heads of families, and have enjoyed some social distinction in their neighborhoods, were given a hearing in a matter that has stirred this county from center to circumference, and which, if the evidence is true, is cowardly, mean and villainous to the last degree. The names of the defendants are W. H. Richardson, George Kirby, Strangeman Stinson, Henry Rector, Peter Rector, Wm. Rector, Albert Rector, Joseph Rector, Jacob Rector and Isaac Hoppas. Stinson and Kirby weakened and gave the whole history of the organization, which dates back to over a year ago. They gave iu detail accounts of the various meetings at night in the woods aud at Scatterlield school-house, at which meetings Richardson seemed to be the leader and director. They told about their visits to Supervisor Cox, the threatening letters, the destruction of farming implements, the shaving of maues and tails of horses with sheen sneers, and of all the devilish work that had been done by the gang, who wore paper bags over their heads. Colts' tails were cut oil' and fences burned. D. W. Wood, prosecuting attorney, and Kittinger & Schwinn appeared for the State, and H. C. Ryan, C. L. Henry and Goody koontz & Ballard for the defendants. The case was submitted without argument, and eight of tho defendants bound over to court, all of whom gave bond in the sum of $$00 each, for their appearance at the September term.

PiTTsncRG, Pa., July 29. The National tube-works, at McKeesport, bas determined to start their mill without the aid of the Amalgamated Association. The men were requested to be on hand this morning, but of the 4,000 men employed only fifty went to work. This excited the strikers, and tho men going to and from work were interfered with. James Jackson, a brother of the superintendent, was badly beaten at the Baltimore & Ohio depot, while two other workmen only escaped by drawing revolvers. At one time the excitement was so great it approached a riot, and eheria McCandless. of this city, was called upon to be in readiness. Other men were chased over the hills by the crowd, and to-night a workman named Hacker was leaving the works, when he was attacked by, another mob. He tired into the gang and was knocked down by a shower of bricks. He was taken to tho station-house where his injuries were found to be serious. A committee of the strikers issued a call for a meeting to-morrow and counseled peace. Everything is quiet tonight, but the company has determined to start the mills after three weeks' idleness, while the men are equally determined to remain out. The sheriff is in readiness with a posse to answer any calL Doable Tragedy in Cleveland. ClevelanDj July 29. Anton Nowak, a molder, and his wife have not lived together for three years.
