THE IMHANArOUS 'JbUjIs'AL - SATURDAY, JUNE 2.' 189 1.

ator Do'phV resolution to brirg- E. J. Edwards, one of the contumackuj v.-itnesse. to th lr of the- S-nate for contempt. Senator 11111 asked unanimous consent to consider a. Joint resoMit'.on parsed by the House yesterday glvln. the Secretary .of War authority, under iki last civii appropriation act. to institute irmdemnatlcn proceedings to secure certain lands near the bj-ttletieH of Gettysburg. Julsre Dallas, he explained, had Just held that the languige of that act was not broad en:u;h -to warrant condemnation proceeding. Senator Cockrell. of Missouri, objected. Insisting that the resolution) snoulJ first ti the committee on military affalis. and It was bo referred. The tariff bill was then laid before the Berate, and the grreat battle over the supar schedule began. The SIcKlnley law placed raw sugars on the frse list, lnipcs.il l2 cent duty on refined sug-ar and -save a lounty of 2 cents to the suffar grower. The Hus? bill repealed the bounty and placed all urars. raw and rettned, on the free I'.st. The first bill reported from the finance committee of the Senate gave a epecitic dutv of from 1 to 1.2S5 cents per pound, according to polarlscoplo test. The ccmprom.'ae amendment, which Is the one now befor the Senate, made the sugar schedul go Into effect Jan. 1. 1353.-the ratss beins placed at V) per cent, ad valorem on all sugars, raw and refined, one-eighth of 1 cnt additional oft sugars above H Dutcn standard, with an additional one-tenth of 1 cent a pound on sugars from countries paying export bounties. It also continued the sugar treaty with. Hawaii. Mr. Manderson took the floor as soon as ilr. Jones had formally proposed the comjiromise amendment. The rugar schedule, he said, was the interesting schedule of the MIL It contained both sweetness and light. It seemed to pervade the whole bill. The bill could not be touched without laying Jiands cn sugar. The Senate had even 'departed from consideration of the bill to make explorations in sugar, not in the cane fields of Nebraska, but in the committee room. The saccharine principle, as It impregnated all nature, invaded every feature cf this bill. Mr. Manderson then proceeded, to argue in favor of protection for the sugar-growing industry of the country. The consumption of sugar in the United States was enormous. Almost 5,000,000.00 pounds of raw sugar had been conumed last year, representing, if grown and refined abroad, a total of JiS2.000.0c") to be paid foreigners. Free sugar would mean the immediate destruction of the beet augar Industry and the gradual extinction of cane sugar production in the Southern 8tates. If properly protected, he prophesied tht before 1005 beet sugar production would have so developed in the North and cane aurar in the South that the United States could supply the full consumption of the country, lieet sugar growing offered an important industry to farmers. When developed to the extent necessary to supply the home demand It would afford a crop of 2.000,000 acres. Was It any wonder that the farmer of the West wanted a continuation of the sugar bounty? They were enthusiastic over the prospect. It was the frreat boon which they asked Congress to save to them. Every acre planted in beets meant twenty days labor to c man. No country In the world. Mr. Manderson said, was so well adapted to produce beet sugar as the United States. Beet growing ultimately would displace cane Krowlng. Mr. ilanderson denied that in fostering the prowth of beet and cane sugar any obllga- - tlon existed to protect the refineries. There Was no connection, he declared, between the 5ugar grower and the odious Sugar Tru3t. le cared nothing for the one and everything for the other. Mr. Manderson gave notice that at the ? roper time he would offer as a subjjtiate for the sugar schedule the bounty frovision of the McKinley bill, continuing t in force until July 1, 1D05. He argued at length in support of the constitutionality of bounties, quoting extensively from rourt decisions, especially the decision of Justice Miller. "If Congress were to give a bounty," inquired Mr. Caffery, "to a farmer or manufacturer, do you contend that the courts have no light to inquire whether the bounty la given for a public or private use?" "I do," replied Mr. Manderson. "The decision of Mr. Miller is conclusive on that point." Mr. Peffer, who spoke next, proceeded at great length to support a bounty Instead of a duty -on sugar. In the course of his speech he drifted into the discussion of the silver Question, touched upon his ideas of the theory of government and the panacea for the existing, ills of the "body politic. It was 5:45 when Mr. Peffer concluded. Tha Senate at 3:47 went Into executive session, and at 5X5 p. m. adjourned. DIDN'T TELL. ALL HE KXEW.

Sir. Warner Before the Sugar Trust Inventlftatlnir Committee. WASHINGTON. June 1. Representative John. DeWltt Warner, of New York, was before the Senate sugar Investigating committee or an hour to-day. He took a .very decided stand when the tariff bill waa before the House in favor of free augar, ad the change in the bill In that direction was the result, very largely, of hla efforts. Stories have been published to tho effect that attempts were made In the Interest of the Sugar Trust to have him desist frora hl3 opposition to the sugar schedule, and Mr. Warner was questioned as to the truth o( these stories. He refused, however, when he left the committee room to divulge the procedings in committee or to state what replies he had made as to questions about the trust. It is understood, however, that his testlmoney did not bear out the claim that' had been made for tt. Representative Warner announced before he was sworn his intention of reserving the privilege as a meraoer or the House of answering only such questions as might be tnought proper. Several times during his examination he rell back upon this privilege and retusea to answer some of the questions wnlch wer asked. Tne committee decided that it nad no pewer to make a member of tne House testily before a Senate committee, and all It can do is to certify the lact to the other house. It 13 understood that one of the points on which the committee sought to obtain- a statement from Mr. Warner was as to the influence brought to beir on him to cease his opposition to tne sugar duty, but this failed. Mr. Warner told the committee that a large amount of his information came from conversation with members of the House who were discussing the eVents relating to the sugar duties. He was asked who these members were, and in every instance declined to give the name of his fellow-members of the House. Tjc 'committee says that the testimony which 'Sir. Warner refused to give was of hearsay .character and not of such Importance thai .would warrant any extraordinary methods to obtain. There Is expressed great desire to have .the testimony that has recently beeu .taken rrinted for the use in the Senate before the vote is taken on the sugax- ' schedule, and it is probable that if it is .available several blocks of it wllj be read vln . the Senate to-morrow. The points of most interest are those relating to the testimony of Secretary Carlisle and others srelating to the sugar schedule. The pol : In Mr. Edwards's story as to how the schedule was drawn, together with certain proceedings on a Sunday at the Capitol, . have been denied by all witnesses. Senator .Jones has testified that he requested Secretary Carlisle to draw the surar schedule, and the Secretary has frankly said th3t he' drew it. Senator Mills has testified that Havemyer came to nim with a letter of introduction from Secretary Carlisle, but that he did not ?ee Havemver. The committee will not go to New York to take testimony, nor will it resume Its sessions until next Monday. It will awal: the appearance of a witness. Walter Gaston, of Wllkestvarre. Pa., who his been t represented as having overheard the conversation at the Arlington Hotel lat March between certain United States Senators and members of the Sigar Trust. Mr. Gaston has expressed a willingness to appear and tell all that he knows. A JEALOUS FARMER'S DEED. Attempts to Kill Three Persons and Puts a Bnllet in His Own Head. CANADAIGtTA. June 1.

The disturbances assumed serious proportions after nightfall. A number of officials were attacked and maltreated.' M. Milleff, Vice President of the Chamber of Deputies, was seized by the rioters in front of the palace, and was seriously Injured before his rescue was effected. M. Dramoff, public prosecutor, was hooted and beaten. M. Petkoff, President of the Chamber of Deputies, was assaulted as he was driving through the streets. A squad of gendarmes attempted to drive the crowd back, and fired on them. They were about to repeat the volley, but were checked by a detachment of cavalry. The citizens are furious against the police, and vow vengeance on them for shooting. The restaurants and cafes were thronged during the night, and at a number of places effigies of Stambuloff and Petkoff were burned. The government to-day decided that the police were unable to cope with the rioters, and they have been replaced by troops. Every quarter of the city is now occupied by the ' military. A number of police failed to answer at roll call this morning, and it is supposed they were disabled In yesterday's fighting. The-government has warned the various prefects that they will be held responsible for any disorder occuring in their provinces, and the military commanders have been instructed to support the civil authorities in checking', any outbreaks. It is stated that ex-Premier Stambuloff Intends to leave Bulgaria. IVoveliat Stevenaona Views. LONDON. June 1.

There a fresh ovation awaited him. A number of ladles stood at the entrance of the building and showered flowers upon him as he entered, and a crowd of students carrying nags, greeted him with songs and cheers. Later on Dr. Wekerle, replying to congratulations upon the attitude he had assumed by a brier address, explained the reasons for his resignation.

At Its regular meeting next Monday the Board of Public Safety will announce Its finding upon the charges of Incompetency and tyranny preferred against Captain Qulnn, of engine company No. 1, and charges of being absent without leave pre-" ferred against Al Gresn, a member of the same company, by Captain Qulnn. At the trial on Thursday night it was mad? very apparent that such a thing as harmony was wholly unknown in the company. In neither of the cnarges preferred did tne complainant prove any reasonable grounds for the filing of the charge3, yet it was plainly shown that such a state of a ft airs as existed in the company was detrimental to the department. The solution of. the whole matter will be the separation of the company. The members of the company will be transferred to other houses and an entirely new set of men tent to the house from the various other houses. llt'PP'S FRIEND CLEVELAND. Uovr the Duffalo Hotel Keeper Visited the President. Buffalo Special to New York Sun. George Rupp, proprietor of the Gruener Hotel, got home from Washington on Sunday. Mr. Itupp went to the capital in the Interest of his friend, Dr. Edward Storck, chairman of the board of censors of the Erie County Medical (Society, who is a candidate for, postmaster. Mr. Rupp and Dr. Storck were Intimate friends of President Cleveland before he had been elected to any office. Mr. Cleveland lived at Mr. Rupp' a hotel for years, and Dr. Storck had his office In the hoteL Mr. Rupp came home In anything but good humor. When his friends asked him for an account of his meeting with the President he said that when he called at the White House Mr. Cleveland saw him for a moment, excused himself on the ground of business cares, and made an appointment to meet him at 2 o'clock the following day. Mr. Rupp called at that hour. Secretary Thurber met him In an outer room, "I have an engagement with the President at 2 o'clock," said Mr. Rupp. "Are you Mr, Rupp?" asked the secretary. "Well, you write a letter to Mr. Cleveland, telling him your views In this matter, and I'll see that he gets lt.M "Did Mr. Cleveland say that?" asked Mr. Rupp, suspiciously. "Well," said Mr. Thurber, fvaslvely, "you are to do that and he will attend to the letter." "I'll wait till I get home and write to him," said Mr. Rupp. "Where do you live, Mr. Rupp?" asked the secretary, in a conciliatory tone. "Tonawanda," said Mr. Rupp, who wasn't '. very much impressed with the Detroit man "Where Is that?" asked Mr. Thurber. "Two miles beyond hell, and I wish you and Grover Cleveland were there," was the reply, for Mr. Rupp's anger was by that time thoroughly aroused. And he Isn't going to write to the President. THE SPOTS OX THE SUX. Remarkable Appearance of the Great Lnmlnnrr Jaat at Present. New York Sun. The sun presents a rather remarkable appearance just now. There are two spots on its surface that can be seen with the aid only of a. piece of smoked glass. One of these, the most conspicuous, is near the solar meridian, and the other is not far from the eastern edge of the disk. A telescope shows an Immense white tongue dividing the black centers of the largest spot, and also reveals a number of .smaller spots, which, together with the large ones, form a belt across the sun from east to west. It has been thought that the maximum of the present sun-spot period is past, and that during the present year the spots will gradually becomes smaller and less numerous. Now is a good time for possessors of small telescopes who have never studied solar phenomena to see what sun spots are like. Even the ordinary spyglass will suffice to show that the largest of the spots now visible has a black center surrounded by a dark gray color. Of course, a smoked glass or better, a piece of black glass, must be placed over the eyepiece before the observer ventures to look at the sun, for otherwise very serious injury might be caused to the eyesight. And with a telescope exceeding an inch or so in aperture it would be dangerous to trust It to the protection of such a screen, for the heat would be likely to crack the glass. In such a case a rpecial apparatus would have to be used. It has been said that these sun spots have been directly concerned in the production of the recent foul weather, but that is not probable. Cut they show surely enough that there are storms on the sun. Cleveland Would ot Salate. , New York Commercial Advertiser. There Is a nw rule in the Navy Department that Is as picturesque as It is patriotic. Whenever a government vessel on its way up or' down the dirty Potomac passes by Mount Vernon the bell on the vessel tolls and the sailors and officers form In line and don their caps and salute the heme of Washington. No matter what the crew are doing, all work is stopped while the ceremony Is gone through. Sailors will stop In their labor of sweeping off the deck, drop their brooms and rush to get in line. There has always been a kind of desultory practice of this kind, and the home of the Father of his Country has generally been honored In an Informal way by government ve?els in passing, but now this tribute of respect is compulsory, and the vessels vie with each other in the promptness with which this salute is performed. A few days ago. when the President was potnK down the river on the Fteamer Violet, the bell toiled as the vessel reached the heights of Mount Vernon. Tho- sail'ors and officers lined up and saluted. anl the President's companion. Secretary Carlisle and Captain Rob Evans, took off their hats in respectful salute. Rut the President made no salute, and he was the only member of the party wno did not. He eat putting his cigar way up in the bows of the Violet, and hardly turned bis head while th salute was made and his companions took off their hat while the boat sped by the historic r:pot. Kvidently. Mr. Cleveland does not believe in Washington. Ilthel Ilrnndon Sues for Divorce. SAN FRANCISCO. June 1.
