with the mere support of his tariff policy In the House, but he expects that every cne of them will attend the next Democratic Ftate convention and assist the Indiana officeholders In railroading a resolution specifically indorsing' his course on the tariff. Ie is aware that the radical element of his party will attempt to repudiate the Senate tariff bill and Indorse the Wilson bill. An attache of the Senate who has been with Voorhees for many years, and who enjoys his confidence, says the Senator's correspondence shows that his friends in the State are alert, and that they are paying considerable attention to the selection of delegate. The Interests of Voorhees, he pays, will be in charge of ex-Congressman Lamb, of Terre Haute, who will see that none but Voorhees men go on the committee on platform. He says Lamb has no eiual in the state to handle a convention or a legislature. TIIC TAHITI' DEBATE.
Democrats Defend Protective Dntles Acnlnst Free Iron Ore. WASHINGTON. May 2L In pursuance of ihe order adopted Friday the Senate met at 10 o'clock with only twelve Senators in their leats. In about ten minutes forty-three Senators a quorum were in the chamber, and, under the agreement, the remaining fifteen minutes before 10:30 were consumed In the consideration of calendar bills. Then the tariff bill was laid before the Senate, and the metal schedule was taken up.. The first amendment, was that reported from the finance committee, placing a duty of 40 cents per ton, on iron ore, lncludln? xnanganiferous iron ore; alsa, the dross or residuum from burnt pyrites. Mr. Aldrlch immediately took the floor and drew a graphic picture of the anomalous position in which he claimed the proposed duty on ore placed the Democratic party in New England. For six years, he said, the Democrats of New England had fought their campaigns on platforms demanding free raw materials. Three years ago Mr. Mills had made a stumping tour of Massachusetts. Everywhere, he said, Mr. Mills had taken free raw materials as his text. He had held up the glowing promise of free coal and free Iron ore when the Democrats obtained control of all branches of the government. While Mr. Aldrich was speaking Mr. Mills entered the chamber, and after some spurring by Republican Senators, engaged lr the discussion. Mr. Mills spoke briefly. He had long given up all hope of converting his Republican colleagues. Past exp?rlence had tautrht Mm that after all arguments had te?n brought to bear they "would still believe the He and be damned. He , saw no hop? for them. "Do you se? any hope for the conversion of your Democratic associates?" asked Mr. Hoar. Oh, I am making fair headway on this side of the chamber." replied Mr. Mill?, but there is too much behind the other filie t. tud?e it." Mr. Chandler called Mr. Mills's attention to a staterm nt that he had male In a speech at New Haven, that If the United State3 had free raw materials her manufacturers would control the markets of the world, and asked why the cotton manufacturers, with free cotton, were not able to com-j-r in open market with foreign competitors. Mr. Mills replied that, while cotton was frt-e. the maenmery employtd In the manufacture of cotton good3 was dutiable at 43 per cent., the dyes were heavily taxed, the cal t;at generated the steam was taxed all the collateral elements w:re taxed. That wis whv cur cotton goods eoull not corrfpete in the markets of the world. T;ie debate which followed was participated in by Messrs. Sherman, Lodge, Vest, BuM:-r. Pear. (Jalllngtr and Dolph. Mr. I'effer offered an amendment to transfer Iron ore to the free lin. It was one cf. the tenets of the Democratic party that r iv mitrials should go on' the fr?e list. Why had this not been done, he asked. Mr. Vest replied that there was no attempt at evasion so far as he was concerned. A large maj3rity on his side favored placing raw materials on the free list. "A majority, did you say?" asked Mr. AU'-son. "I meant what I said." replied Mr. Vest. 'A large majority on this Fide believe in free raw materials. But the urgency of tariff legislation rendered It absolutely necessary for the majority to make concessions to the small minority. The alternative was presented of passing the bill with these concessions, or not passing it at all. Mr. Brice, during th? course of the de- , bate that followed, became involved for a brief space and immediately became the target for his political antagonists. Mr. Uriee denied that there was any dissension on hl3 sid?, or that the proposed duty of 40 cents on iron ore was a protection duty. As he understood it. he said, it was purely a revenue duty. Mr. Puffer's amendment to transfer Iron ore to the free list was lost I to 46. lh yeas were Allen, Hill, Kyle and Peffer. At 6 o'clock the Senate adjourned. THE COTTOX SCHEDULE. Another 'Revision ly the Senate Finnnce Committee. WASHINGTON. May a. Senator Jones, on be'aalf of the Democratic majority of the Senate finance committee, to-day Introduced the e'emmitte? revision of the cotton schedule. The revision changes the rate in paragraphs 250, 233. 2)4. 235, 2S3 and 6-1. In paragraph 230 the Hojs de siccation is retained and the rate3 cianed so that the paragraph will read as follows: "Cotton thread, yarn, warps or warp yam, v.netucr single cr ad.'anc;d b:ycna the condition cf single by grouping cr twisting two or mere single yarn together, whether on beams or In bunl!ea. slcelns or cjps or in any other form, e.:e?t spool thr;cd. of cottcn, hereinafter provided for. valued at net exceeding 1c?nts per psunJ, 20 per ceat. ad valorem; valued at over 12 cents per pound and n.t exceeding 20 ccnt3 cer pound. 30 per cent, ad valorem; valued at over 20 cenis ?cr pound and not ex:eelin2r 10 c?nt? pr pcund.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO, Ind.. May 21. Rev. and Mrs. Hayden Rayburn celebrated their sixtyfirst wedding anniversary last week. Rev. Rayburn Is not only the oldest minister in point of service In Indiana, but has the distinction of holding the Hoosier championship in the number of marriages performed. Born in 1S12, he entered the Methodist Episcopal ministry In 1833, and Is one of the pioneers of the State. During his sixty years of labor for the church Father Rayburn has solemnized 1,202 marriages, passing the 1,200 mark last week. In the early days, when the country was new and the Miami reserve Inhabited chiefly by Indians, Father Rayburn was frequently called twenty, thirty and sometimes fifty miles to speak the word3 he has so often repeated since. In those pioneer days railroads were unheard of, no public roads had been established, and the only mode of travel was on horseback, picking the way through the underbrush of the unbroken forest. Sometimes his pay consisted of coonsklns, beans or whatever the groom had to give In lieu of cas'u, whicu wd a scarce article In those days. Later, as the country developed, he abandoned going to weddings, and made It a rule to marry those only who came to him. and more than two hundred couples have made the pilgrimage to the residence, oi the venerable mlrlster. "I don't know why it is." said he, "that people still want me to marry them, unless because I married their fathers and mothers and grandfathers end grandmothers. I have had pretty good luck, for out of the 1.202 marriages I know of but three divorces. I generally give the youngsters a little lecture, and I sometimes think this did them qcod." Father Rayburn. now In his eighty-third year, is hale and hearty. He has greatgrandchildren grown to man's estate. FIELD DAY AT 1VA1IAS1I. Young Men Selected to Represent the College In State Events.

Insurance Companies Do "Sot Care Abont Taking Tlieiu. x American Women. Insuring women's lives has become such a precarious business that Insurance companies disapprove of women risks, and have discontinued largely the custom of insuring them in favor of their husbars, fearing that men wdll abuse their opportunities. A writer for their paper has been investigating the subject, and ha3 gathered some information which mayserve to' put women on tnelr guard and cause them to be more suspicious of the faithfulness and undying affection of their lords and masters. The first reason given against women as subject for life insurance 13 that they rarely, if ever, give a true statement of their physical condition. Examinations may find them in apparently perfect health, when. In reality, they have some incurable disease. If reference is made to their habits of life and manner of dress they promptly assert that they dress In the most approved and hygienic plan. An officer who may be called cynical goes so far as to state when women go to have their lives insured they tell only a minimum of the truth. Companies consider It unsafe to Insure property which has no insurance value, and take It for granted that a woman's income is not large enough to Justify any large amount of insurance. It seems that the moral risk of Insuring women is far greater than physical; not that the woman herself is morally u ri?k, but, thp-t the avaricious tendencies of her husband make It a hazardous experiment. Permitting a husband to put a monsyed value on his wife is fraught twith danger whirh has not been anticipated by loving, unsuspecting wives with their husband's welfare at heart. One large insurance company discovered a great Increase in the mortality of their female risks, and, upon Investigation, came to the conclusion that men are not to be trusted. While no casea of real murder have be?n found against these mn, physicians were In many cases convinced that with good care many a woman might have lived out her allotted time. One method among husbands aft?r a wife Insures herself Is to treat her with neglect, and when she becomes ill attend to it that she has no medical advice until it is too late. Men hav3 been known to marry women, have their lives insured, give them cause for divorce, and sell them to other men for the insurance. OVEUTRAIMXG IS COLLEGE. Athletes AVIiomc Death May Have Reen Dne Indirectly to It. New York Sun. Walter Dohm's death from consumption has started anew the discussion of the evils of. overtraining In college athletes. Dohm was only twenty-six years old. He Aas a Princeton man, and in 1892 he ran half a mile on the Manhattan field In one minute and fifty-four and a half seconds, making a world's amateur record. While In college he won championships in the broad Jump, In the hurdle races and In the long-distance runs. Such success requires hard and persistent training. When Dohm' lungs were found to be weak, about a year ago, his friends said that overtraining was the cause of it. For several years he had not entered any events, nor had he been actively in training. C. O. Wells, of Amherst, who died about a year ago, was as well known In athletics as was Dohm. His record for a mile run. made on the Berkeley oval about three years aeo, of four minutes, twentyseven and three-fifths seconds, stood until a University of. Pennsylvania man lowered it four seconds several days ago. Not a few other college athletes who were In the same class with Dohm and Wells have died within a year or two, and In each case It has been said that they were weakened by overtraining. It is urged in support of this that the men who go In for the long runs and events of that sort acquire for a time an abnormal expansion of the lungs. When they stop training, as most of them do after leaving college, there is a reaction that leaves the lungs weak and ready for disease. A college man to-day who goes in for football, the crew or field events is trained more carefully than a race horse. Usually he gives some indication of his athletic possibilities during his freshman year, and from that time on he is watched and discussed by every' man in college. Success in athletics is usually an open sesame to the best societies and to a certain amount of consideration from the faculty in college work. But to gain this success he must work harder than a professional athlete. When the trial comes he is spurred to extraoruiri iry efforts by college spirit and colic jji cheers. When such a man. who has not inherited weak lur.gs. and who must of necessity have'develoied his lungs more than the average man. dies of consumption, there are not a few people who think that they can trace the effect dirctly from the cause overtraining.

SIX ANARCHISTS SHOT i EXECUTED FOR COMPLICITY IX TIID ATTACK OX GEXERAL CAMPOS. " Two Volleys Required Before All Were Dend The Manchester Canul Formally Opened. BARCELONA, May 21. The sir Anarchists, Codina, Cerezuela, . Sogas, Bernat, Villarubla and Mir, sentenced to death after having been convicted "of complicity In the attempt of Pallas to assassinate Captain General Martinez Campos and Of being concerned in the Llceo Theater bomb tragedy, were executed at 4 o'clock this morning outside the citadel of Mont Juich. The prisoners passed the night In the chapel of the fortress after force had been employed to compel them to do so. Rain was falling heavily this morning when the condemned men were taken from the chapel through the subterraneous passages to the place of execution. The first of the doomed men to appear was Sogas, then came Cerezuela. They showed signs of repentance and joined in the prayers of the priests who accompanied the prisoners to the place of death. Cerezuela was quiet and appeared to be praying, silently. These men were the only ones who seemed to be impressed with their impending doom. Their companions shouted all kinds of revolutionary cries while on the way to execution. Troops were drawn up outside the castle walls forming three sides of a square. The fourth side was closed in by the walls of the citadel. The six Anarchists were placed standing in a line with their faces to the the wall. Standing at a short distance behind the condemned men was the firing party. At the first volley only four of the convicts fell dead and the second volley was necessary in the cases of Sogas and Codina to complete their execution. There was no disorder. i THE MANCHESTER CAXAL. England's Dig Ditch Formally Opened by the Queen. MANCHESTER. May 2L Queen Victoria opened the great Manchester ship canal todiiy. The moet xtensiq preparations were made to receive her Majesty. The streets were profusely decorated and all the regular and volunteer troops of this city and its" vicinity turned out to welcome her. Several addresses were 'presented to her Majesty, including one from the canal company, which is a most elaborate affair, briliantly illuminated with the pictures of scenes all along the banks of the canal and is an appropriate production commemorating the opening of this waterway from Manchester to the sea and 'which throws this large city open to the floating commerce of the world. Her Majesty arrived here at 4:30 p. m., and drove from the station through eight miles of the principal thoroughfares, which were brilliantly decorated "with flags, floral arches, Venetian masts and lined with stands. The Queen was received by Lord Mayor Marshal Lord Egerton, of Tatton, chairman of the Manchester Ship Canal Company, and by the Mayor of Salford and other distinguished people. At the Town Hall an address was made, after which she was driven to Trafford wharf, where she embarked on the royal yacht Enchantress. After a trip through the canal she declared the latter open to commerce. Her Majesty was presented with an address upon her return from inspecting the canal, and to-night all the streets of Manchester and of the towns along the line of the canal were ablaze with Illuminations. Every precaution was taken to prevent her Majesty or any other person suffering from the effects of the pent-up waters of the canal, considerable discussion having been caused bv the statement that the water of the Irwell, impounded in the canal and in the hundred acres of docks was so bad as to be likely, to produce sickness among the crowds of people expected to be present at the formal opening of the canal to-day. The great canal which has converted Manchester into a seaport was commenced on Nov. 11, 1S87, at Eastham Ferry, on the Cheshire side of the Mersey. The cost of the canal has been about $75,000,000.

SAN FRANCJSCO, May 21. The steamship Gaelic arrived from Hong Kong and Yokohama to-day. She brings China news up to April 18. A great fire broke out at Schucheng on April 1, in Annul province. Fully 2,500 houses were destroyed. A correspondent writes from Schenai that the officials of the province have Issued proclamations remitting taxes and sanctioning relief from the provincial g-ra naries. This was not done, however, until the most cruel tortures had been Inflicted upon the thousands of starving people In the effort to extort from them the taxes remitted by the Emperor eight months ago. The relief given now is inadequate, as greater distrer-s prevails, as there has been no rain for five months.

Eighteen million taels have already been collected for the purpose, and 20.000.000 will be required to pay for the proposed festivities.

Dibts, Premier of New South Wales, In a speech at Tarn worth, declared that the government would adhere to the policy of protection. He said he objected to a plan of federation which would involve separate Australian States. In such a scheme lay the germ of a disturbance similar to that which occurred In the United States between the Northern and Southern State.-. One Parliament and one Governor would suliice for the whole of Australia, but the change must not increase the burden of taxpayers. Sir George said he would shortly submit to Parliament a scheme embodying this proposition. Invented with Red Hats. ROME, May 21.
