setitntivcs mm, evening iowowinir inunction of tho democratic caucus decid

ing to accept the senate amendments to Iii. tsirlir 1)111 ami thus ending the

nrolonircd tiirht over the measure:

Tin limiM was considering the 1)111

to establish a free library in the city of Washington when the discussion was interrupted by the introduction of

the expected order from the committee utu means stood tins afternoon ou rules relating to the consideration verted by his party. He stood up

of the t a ritt' bill and coarnate measures

which was proposed by Mr. Catchings. It provides: (l.) That it shall be in order after the passing of the order to move that the act of the house requesting a further conference on the tariff bill be rescinded: that the conferees Ihj discharged from further duty in connection therewith, and that the house agrees to the senate amendments in bulk, which motion shall be debated

two hours when tho vote on its adoption and the motion shall bo indivisible. Ueneral leave to print on the

subject is given for ten days.

(2.) That it shall be in order after

the adoption of the order to present in

the house and consider without refer

ence to any committee bills for placing

u (rar, coal, iron ore ana barbed wire

iiHin the free list. Thirty minutes

hall be given to the discussion of fach

bill and the vote be then taken.

Mr. Catchings moved the previous

question, and Mr. Heed raised a point

of order against the resolution, which the speaker overruled.

The previous question was seconded

without a division, and the speaker

recognized the gentleman from Missis

Miini (.Mr. Catchings), who had arisen

from his seat simultaneously with Mr.

Hoed. The former indicated his wil

lingness to yield to Mr. Heed, while

the latter sat down as if unwilling to

deprive Mr. Catchings of the floor.

The latter, however, persisted in keeping his seat, and Mr. Heed

rose, lie told the democrats that their feeling was perfectly natural. The job they had to do was Mich that the sooner they got over it

the better they would feel. Laughter

and cries of "vote." They were goiu

to trample upon the barriers which preserved the rights of the people, in

order to perforin an act which would

bo distasteful to gentlemen differently

situated from themselves. Laughter. J

"You are going to do it in defiance

of all your protestations, in defiance of all your declarations," he said. "You

are going to die not only in the last ditch, but in the lowest part of the

ditch. Laughter. You arc going to nact a bill which you believe not to

an honest bill, and you arc going to

nnpany it with a parade which you

know is not hoiiast. louarcgo

order to deck yourself out with

ate conferees. The bill would bo known in history as tho Oornmnllricc bill, vice the Wilson bill, dead, ami not dead upon the field of honor cither. Laughter and applause, J Tho gentleman from West Virginia and his compatriots were little babes in tho woods.nnd it wouldbe found pretty soon

that they were left there by their uncle in the White House. (Ireat laughter

und applause on the republican side. J

And he could near the coming or tno pinions of the little birds bearing tho ballots that were to bury them out of sight. Laughter. Keferring to tho president's letter.hu said: " 'Out of your own household has come your condem

nation.' ay, out your own m.uth has your condemnation come." He congratulated the country on the speedy departure of incompetency.

Mr. Pmrrows (rep.. Mich.) said that

the chairman of the committee on ways

dethis

afternoon bravely and declined to lead

the retreat. Hut his friends had de

serted him, and he stood substantially

alone in his tight for tariff reform.

"Whore," Mr. Humnvs asked, "are

the men who rallied around him in the

beginning? Many democrats "Here .... ...i . . i i :...:,

"We are all here," came Irom tno

democratic ranks. 1 hey have all

leader: 'Though I shall die with thee,

yet I shall not desert thee. I am ready to follow thee both to prison and

death.' Where are they now?'

r.Moie democratic cries: "Here wo

t.

Concluding an animated speech, Mr,

Uurrows predicted that the president would return the bill with scorn and

would say when asked to sign it: "Is

thy servant a dog that he should do this thing."

Mr. McMillin (dem., Tenn.), one of

the conferees, defended the senate bill, und was asked by Mr. Houtelle (rep., Me.), sneeringly, how it happened that

he was so long in finding out that the

senate bill was such a splendid meas

ure. He replied that the gentleman

from Maine and his sympathizers had

prevented a better bill being got.

.Several other speeches m favor of

and against the proponed measure.

some o litem spanning wun wn aim satire nnd some bristling with invect

ive and denunciation, were made.

when, the two hours allowed for debate having expired, the vote was

taken on the report of the committee on rules to concur in the senate amend

ments to the tariff bill, anil it was agreed to: Yeas, 11: nays, lOS.

Motions to reconsider the vote and

to lay that motion on the table were

Washington. Aug. lt. The Chinese treaty which was ratified by the senate

by a vote of -17 to 20, provides that for a period of ten years tho coining, under conditions specified, of Chineso

laborers to the United States

shall be absolutely prohibited.

This does not apply to the return of any registered Chinese

laborer who has a lawful wife, child or

parent in the United States or property

here to the value of SI, 000, or deHs of

like amount due him and pending set tlement. Kvery such laborer is re

Aug. 17. The inner History of the Pullman Company, as seen from the Pullman strikers' standpoint, was told to the national labor commission yesterday by Thomas Heatheole, chairman of the Pullman strike committee. The narrative proved the most interesting piece of testimony yet submitted, and was heard by a large nuinler of persons, more than any so far seen at this session. The day was almost entirely devoted to the Pullman end of the big strike. , .Mr. llimtlii'iiti Tnki-H tln Stuml.

At the opening of the afternoon session Mr. Heatheole took the stand. He has been instrumental, more than any other man, in keeping the l'ullnian strikers from returning to work. It is acknowledged that the strikers would long ago have gone back at the company's terms had it not been for Mr. Heatheole's efforts. He testified that the wages varied from 81 to six dollars for two weeks work. He was employed by the piece. He declared that the Pullman employes did not strike until they were forced to tlo so by the conditions imposed by the company. Many were unable to keep their families provided with food on the wages received, dust before the strike some of the men got nine cents an hour, and worked only a few hours a day. Out of this they wero obliged to pay rent, taxes, water rates, gas and buy food. The prices on piecu work were so low that even the best men were unable to make more than S2 a day. The witness said he paid S17.71 a month for a five-room cottage, which could -lie got at Kensington oi

HvdePark for7 to S9. This included

the charge for water in Pullman. Mr.

Heatheole could not afford to pay for

t . 1 A 1 .

gas. tor which ne understood me com

pany charged !r2..t0 a thousand.

The I'ulliiiiin r.liii'MNt.

The witness then created a nnld sen

sation by producing a piece ol paper, which he said was one of the Pullmar

"blacklists ' Hi. own name headed the list. He claimed that this was tho

original list, copies, of which had been sent toall the railroads, lie explained

that the list was given to him by a

clerk in the offices of the company,

whose name he refused to give. Several men, Mr. Heatheole said, had

been dropped for belonging to labor unions. Old men returning to work at Pullman now were obliged to. surrender their American l.ailv.ay union cards and sign an agreement not to join any labor organization for five

years. If they refused to abide by these conditions they were not given a position. He said that Supt. Middleton was not a car-builder but a mechanic, and that if a more experienced

man had been in charge the men would have made more money and business would have been better with the com

pany.

A Community of lHiii(r.

When asked if the men in the differ

ent departments of the ear-building

works were willing to testify before

the commission and why more of them

were not present, Mr. Heatheole an-

hwereu:

"Some of them have not got money

enough to come down town. Some of

them have not got ten cents to their

names."

Mr. Heatheole considered it a curi

ous circumstance that tue i unman company could declare a big dividend

and still be losing money. " lien we left the Pullman service," said the wit

ness, "we owed the company 70,000 for rent, which we were unable to pay.

1 have seen men at work who were so

weak from lack of food that they could . A ..1.

se:invlV go on wttn tneirworic, to suea

a destitute .state were the men reduced." Ci-IimI When Tliiy Ki-iilviil ThHr Whbh.

The witness said that if a workman

icfused to live in the Pullman houses

lie was discharged. M would like to

have the job of building those houses

at SOW) each." added the witness. "I have seen men cry at the bank window when they received the money for their

checks, after drawing thirty-five or fortv cents., the rent having first been . . . , M.1l. ..II .1..... I.... I

Chairman Heatheole's views as to

r.reventing strikes were government

ownership of railroads and arbitration

when it could le justly applied.

largest convention in the history of the democratic party in Indiana convened at 10 o'clock this morning in Touilinsoii

hall. There were 1.717 accredited dele

gates seated on the main floor. The ball was elaborately decorated with

bunting and American flags The only pictures to be seen were those of (!ov.

Claude Matthews of Indiana, President

Cleveland and the luU Thomas Hen

dricks. They were all s.teel engravings,

and the president's, .vhieh was the largest of the three, lit ug immediately

above the presiding officer's head. The large Hag which was wrapped around the Hendricks monument at its unvei'.ing hung from the center of the ceiling. The state band, located in the rear gallery, kept tlw audience in an enthusiastic mood until the convention got down to business. An unusual number of ladies were present in the galleries. There was considerable difficulty experienced in seating the delegates, the extremely warm weather and the large number to be seated creating .something of a pandemonium. Finally, when order was restored, P.ev. Abbott, of Indianapolis, offered a prayer. A roll of the delega

tions was found to be complete. The committee on permanent organization reported, and named Oov. Matthews for permanent chairman of the convention, a great outburst ol applause following the mention of (ov. Matthews' name. In his opening re'marks, Chairman Taggart of the state central committee expressed confidence in a democratic victory in November. Chairman Taggart then introduced Gov. Matthews, the permanent chair

man, who was received with loud

cheers. The governor delivered miite a lengthy siieech, at the conclusion of

which the nla4form was read and

adopted. Prof. Eli nominated first ballot.

.lust previous to the adjournment of the convention Gov. Matthews introduced to the delegates a number of the

leading delegates to the National

League of Negro Democratic clubs in

session here. The colored people were received with loud applause . and

speeches were called for.

President Taylor of the league, who holds the position of recorder of deeds

at Washington, responded. He said

thev were there to represent hundreds

of thousands of intelligent democrats who were democrats, not because they had to be, but liecatise they thought for themselves and realized that the principles advocated by the democratic party were for their good. The day had passed when a man's political complexion would be told by the color of his skin. Negroes were to-day Ih'ing given their political freedom as they had been given their physical freedom. They would solve the negro question for themselves and not appeal to Kngland for aid. Let the negro be free to vote a.s he will and Iyiichings in the south would soon cease. The race would itself settle the matter. He was then to declare his unswerving confidence in (trover Cleveland, even though he had been einbarnt-sed by a minority of so-called democrats.

Milton Turner, of St. Louis, also spoke in the same strain, declaring his faith in President. Cleveland anil his

consciousness that the tcinoiplesof the

democratic nartv were to the interest

of the colored race. Tha conventionadjourat-d at3 o'clock

Tin Lour l.p of u I'liutln'r From a Clin to Attitck it Hur-.

"Fifty feet below us, as I step out on

a mass of rock and look down, is a bit of vallev with a silver stream running

down it from a spring under my feet.

and drmkimr frin this stream are

seven wild horses of the plains. They are the real mustangs swift, hardy

and warv. and Indian and wolf have

pursued them in vain. An antelope

might run with them for a couple of miles, but not further. The Indium

have ponies more fleet, but not with

such endurance.

Let pursuit be attempted, and one

of the innstantrs, wild and untamable

and knowing no master, would strike

gallop which would not lag or be

broken for fifty miles. These seven

belong to the drove of fifty we saw two

days ago, and were probably separated during the thunderstorm of yesterday.

As I watch them they turn away from

the stream, bite each other in play, and

one negins to jecu lowarn me. i ae

grass is sweet and green, but he takes a bite here and there as he comes, as if hunger were almost satisfied, and final

ly reaches a sapling growing almost at the base of the elilT and begins to rub against it.

" thirty feet be-In iv me is another jut

ting mass of rock, entirely bare except

for a single stunted bush. It is twenty feet above the horse and the same distance away. I have heard nothing from the rocks and bushes below me not the snap of a twig or the rustle of a branch but suddenly an object attracts the eye. "Fairly beneath me a panther creeps out of its lair in the rocks and moves forward. He looks to the right and left, but not upward. Let me move hand or foot and his ears would catch the sound. He has heard the horses and crept out to investigate. He is a fair shot for me, but the

idea of firing on him does not occur. As he pulls himself slowly forward to peer over the edge of the rock his fur shines like velvet and tho play of all his muscles can 1m? seen. His cars work rapidly and his tail move softly to and fro.
