Ninety-fifth Day-With the close of the Cuban reciprocity debate in the House, the leaders announced that all danger of the bill being weighted down with undesirable amendments was over and that they felt assured that the bill would pass in the shape which it came to it. It was announced that the entire Republican delegations from Michigan and California, who constitute the head and front of the opposition, had agreed not to vote to override the rul ing of the chair. Mr. Wilson, of Indi ana, who is acting as the whip for the majority, does not believe over a dozen Republicans at the outside will jrin the Democrats upon the proposition. It would require more than 20 Republican votes to place upon the bill the amend ment which might endanger its ultimate passage, as several Democrats, It is said. have also declared their intention to stand by the chair. An unsuccessful effort was made again today by Mr. Payne to secure an agreement to post a limit upon the general debate. When the House adjourned today there re mained 35 members who desired to speak. The debate was without particular interest. The speakers were Messrs. Swanson, of Virginia, for the bill, and Smith, of Michigan; Dayton, of West Virginia; Burgess, of Texas; Meyer, of Liulsiana, and Southeriand, of Utah, against it. Mr. Swanson argued that the bill was in line with the Democratic policy of tariff reform. That statement made him a target for the questions of some of his Democratic colleagues who .dif fered with him, and he had sharp clashes with Mr. Bartlett, of Georgia; Mr. Wheeler, of Kentucky, - and Mr. Cooper, of Texas. Mr. Tawney, of Min nesota, asked Mr. Swanson wh'thcr the proposed legislation would not force Cuba to enact our immigration laws. In reply Mr. Swanson declared-that the question showed the inconsistency of the opponents of the bill who on the one hand claimed that this bill would dragoon poor, distressed Cuba into ac cepting something she did not want and on the other hand insisted that Cuba was prosperous and did not need the contemplated relief. Mr. Swanson argued that with 20 per cent. preferen tial duties in our favor we should be able to monopolize the Cuban markets. Hd declared that the Anierican people would tolerate no person or party which asserted that we owed nothing to Cuba and that our trade relations with her should be no closer. than those of other countries. Personally, he said, he would hail the day when Cuba be came a part of the United States. "Have you begun your propaganda for free trade with the Republican ma jority?" asked Mr. Littlefield, of Maine. "We have," replied Mr. Swanson. "We have infused the majority with 20 per cent of our views and we are encouraged." (Laughter.) Mr. Meyer laid stress upon the hard ships which the ruin of the sugar in dustry .would entail upon the black la borers of Louisiana, who, he continued, would be entitled to as much consid ' SENATE. Ninety-fifth Day-The debate on the Chinese exclusion bill was practically concluded In the Senate and voting on the bill and amendments will begin at 1 o'clock tomorrow. By general consent a vote was taken today on two amend ments offered by Mr. Fairbanks, of In diana, striking out the definition as to. Chinese students and teachers, and they were agreed to without discus sion. These changes were made with a view to reconciling some of the oppo sition to the measure, which has been directed against the rigid restrictions on students and teachers, and the uu necessary convenience this would Im pose on the educated Chinese classes coming to this country. The debate to day was participated in by Senators Heitteld, of Idaho; Penrose, of Penn sylvania, and Turner, of Washington, in favor of the bill, and Senators Pritchard, of North Carolina, and Spooner, of Wisconsin, in opr -sitionl. Mr. Turner made the assertion that politics had crept into the discuss&on and that most of the members ot :he majority were opposed to the bill. This brought out a sharp rejoinder ?r3rt Mr. Spooner, who maintained that pol itics had not figured in the discussion and that the opposition to the present bill was due entirely to its conflict with the treaty and not because of any op position to Chinese exclusion, which was an established doctrine of the gov ernment. Mr. Pritchard opposed the bill mainly on account of the injury it would cause the South in reducing the cotton exports to China. Mr. Mallory, of Florida. expressed surprise at the amendment proposing to strike out the senen's clause so-called. He said this was one of the most salutary featu.res and should be retained. Gift to Columbia College. New York, Special.-Public announ ~ement will be made after the official nstallation ceremonies in Columbia ollege of a munificent money gift to :hat institution by Andrew Carnegie, ccording to information which reach as the press. The exact amount is nown only to the president and board >f trustees. but there is good reason to elieve that it is not far short of $1, 00,00. This will be more than suf icient to build a college hall, a chapel >r dormitory, to which purpose the gift s to be aunlied. Strike Averted. Roanoke, Special.-The differences between the machinists of the Blue Seld (W. Va.) Norfolk and Western Railway shops and the officials of that road have been amicably settled. t is not known just what concessions were made on either side, but it has been given out that there will be no trike, the committe3 which came ere from Bluefield yesterd~ay to con rer with the Norfolk annl Western ilicials having reached that conlus some young men faM is love and some lum in with both feet. BOY THIEVES IN CLOVER Robbed 200 Churches Between Pitts burg and New York City. Operated Without Detection-Finally Struck a Varnish Factory and Found It Richer Than a Mint. New York City.-Louis Lester and Thomas Riley, who were arrested in Brooklyn, have in the last two years robbed hundreds of churches, furnished rooms and small stores. Lester is twenty-two years old and Riley nine teen. Lester, in making a confession, said- "My home is In Galveston, Tex. I was graduated from the high school and rani away from home. I first broke out in :'1s business two years ago, in t Pittsbu:;. where I picked up my pal, l Riley. We found it easier to break a into churches than anywhere else. There is no risk, no burglar alarm, no dog, or watchman. You can always 0 slip In at a cellar window and make your way up into the building and help a yourself to what you want. "After we had touched off a few churches in Pittsburg we drifted to ward Buffalo, robbing a church in one ( town, pawning the stuff we would get t in the next town: doing a church or d two there, and so on to the next town. f If there was an .asy proposition in the d way of a little s.ore with money in it a we would take that in, but that was t not often. Churches for ours, every a time. "I suppose we've broken into 200 t churches and got away with the goods. s When we came to New York City a few months ago we found a warehouse tl in Seventy-fourth street that was like I1 getting money out of the bank. We I1 took 1000 gallons of varnish out of that I place in two months, working only on g Sundays. We got $2.50 a gallon for it. We took seveLty-five imported razors e out of a barber shop near the Charles t Street Police Station, in New York d City, a few weeks ago. We went g through about thirty churches. in Brooklyn as near as I can figure it." o Many pawn tickets were found on c the prisoners. They were held for the t: Grand Jury. CUBAN BILL PASSED. c Republicans Join Democrats to Defeat the House Leaders. Washington. D. C.-The House has t passed the C-7an Recip'acity bill by g a vote of to 52, after adding to it an amendment cutting off the differen tial on refined sugar. The sction of the Democratic cau cus was reflected In the action of the a House, the united vote of the minor- p Ity and of the beet sugar Republicans I being sufficient to override the ruling t of Chairman Sherman and attach an n amendment to the Cuban Reciprocity e bill abolishing the differential duty 0 on refined sugar during the existence r of the reciprocal treaty with Cuba. r The combination was exerted only t, on the motion of Mr. Morris, of Min- : nesota, to strike off the differential, all ' other amendments being either ruled d out of- order, or voted down by the C entire Republican vote. It was showfI, , 1%tee of the wholi, when, after Chair- r; man Sherman, of New York, had ruled i, the amendment out of order, he was t1 reversed on appeal taken by Mr. Mor- t ris, over thirty Republicans joining t the Democrats in sustaining the ap- d1 peal. There was a majority of nearly a fifty on that proposition, and a slightly a larger one on the adoption of the t amendment in the committee. n This Is the first time in many Con greses that the leadership of the Re publican party has been overthrown a~ by the concerted action of the Demo- s crats and bolting Republicans. V COERCION IN IRELAND. Three Sections of the Crimes Act to Be Enforced in Many Districts. Dublin, Ireland.-Three sections of 1. the Crimes act have been put in force In a large number of districts of Ire land by proclamation, issued by Earl Cadogan, the Lord Lieutenant of Ire land. C These sections provide for summary y jurisdiction in cases of criminal con spiracy, intimidation and unlawful as sembly, for trial by special jury and for change of venue at the option of the Crown.

CHINESE EXCLUSION BILL PASSED.t S Senate Adapts the Platt Amendment Re- n Enacting the Present Law. Washington, D. C.-After spending p an afternoon in voting on innumerable f amendments to the Chinese Exclusion r bill, the Senate composedly dropped v that measure and adopted the Platt' substitute by a vote of forty- -ignt tc t: thirty-three. Having made this sub- ~ stituton, the Senate passed the amend- t: ed bill by a vote of seventy-six to one, a Mr. Hoar alone voting in the negative. ~ The Platt substitute simply re-enacts the present law and extends It to the Philippines. It was the bill contended tor by the conservative element which Is opposed to all rigorous modes of Clhi-t nese exclus:on, and was also voted for by those who regaid It as too strong. but milder than the proposed bill. It wvas offered by Senator Platt, of Con- e necticut. SHERIFF CUDEN'S REMOVAL UPHELD ne Supreme ,Court Reverses the Decision .of Justice Gaynor.
