QUAY'S YIGTORY
THE SENATORIAL MARLBOROUGH
INS HIS BLENHEIM.
DEKCGRATIG CONFERENCE LBT NIGHT.
At Which an Honorable Proposition
Was AccepUd
FOSTFONINQ THE ELECTIONS MEASURE.
Congress Will Now Be Able lo Adjourn
During SeplemberWindom's Order
Relieves the Money Market.
It Is over. The fight Is ended. The
Force bttl Is dend. And tt makes a
mighty ugly corpse.
Lato yesterday afternoon Senator
Juay went to Senator Gorman and out
lined to him the agreement which had
been arrived nt by tho Itcpuhllcan Sen.
ators In their Thursday night confer
ence. Mr. Gorman said he thought
that would bo ncccptablo to his party
colleagues. IIo agreed to ascertain
their views nnd communicate them to
the Kcystono statesman, who has for
Eome days held the key to the situation.
The itepubllcan conference simply
agreed to closo general debate on the
Tariff bill on August 80, to proceed
under tho flvo-intnutc rulo until Sep
tember 8, to allow each side three bouri
In which to closo debate, and then to
begin voting. Certain other bl.lt, as
earned In the Quay resolution, wcro to
be acted on Immediately after thoTnriT
bill. Tho Pcr'o bill waa to bo post
poned until next session only that and
nothing more.
Accordingly the Democratic Senator i
held n confer-unco last night at .Mr.
Gotman's residence. It lasted until 11
o'clock. It wiw decided to accept the
agreement proposed by tho Republicans
nr.d printed above.
No resolution embodying this nr
languncnl will bo presented to the Sen
nle. All resolutions, substitutes and
nmrndmcnls In any way minting to the
subject , are like Hector, of Troy very
dead.
On Monday next Senator Aldrich,
who has charge of tho Tariff bill, will
ask unanimous consent for the carrying
out of tho programmo agreed on. Of
course It will bo granted.
ThUIsall that will be ilono In open
Senate, Tho terms are fair and honora
ble to tho Democrats. Tho rules re
main unchanged; tho Force bill goes
over, and they have had and will have
n fairly reasonable time In which to
tllicuts the Tariff bill. The course to
be followed with reference to the latter
Is simply that which has always ob
tained In the Senate deliate Is cloMtl
by unanimous confout.
Like Blenheim, It Is a famous victory
for Marlborough Stanley Quay.
IT i Two papers were yesterday circulated
lii among the Itepubllcan Senators for
f'A signatures. One was carried about bv
Mdccq Spooner. The other by Mr.
Hale.
Mr, Bpooner'8 paper required the Ite.
publicans to pledge themselves to vote
next session for making the Force bill
u special order for the first Monday la
December, and to consider the previous
question on it as ordered for December
"0. IIo met with Indifferent sueeaes
and bad more names oa bis tab than oa
the agreement.
Mr Hale's paper simply required the
signatory parties faithfully to abide by
the action of the Thursday night con
ference, come weal, come woe. Tula
paper was generally signed by the lie
publican Senators, Indeed It is claimed
f day that every oae of them now is
the city signed it. Among other things
tils r,rrus that the Maine Senator 1
a Hale filtow well met.
The reason for bavin the paper
ciiinc-d pledging the signatories to stead
ly tbe conference is that some of them
might want to abandon the Fotee bill
affr tbe fall elections, wbkh. It Is eoa
ccJcl will go against theltepublkaa

One baa but to look at the Ka
political cauldron and see It boll to be
convinced that on that account, if for
no better, loftier, more patriotic motive,
Mr. Ingalls Is not la the coup d'etat
business this year.
So the rules cannot be chanced, and
a resolution fixing a day for the taking
of a vote on tbe Force bill cannot be
adopted.
As lo the other method, It has oc
curred to some of the Senators that It
would be a very undignified proceed
ing for .them to sign any such pledge
as to their future action with a view to
its publication to convince their con
stituents that they (the signatory Sen
ators) are bonestlv ami earnestly In
favor of the Force bill.
What they will do with the ptrw.
now tt ts signed, will probably have to
be decided in another conference.
This solution of what promised to lie
a prolonged deadlock, by permitting
the passage of the Tariff bill In tho near
future, will prevent the financial strin
gency with which the country la now
aflllctcd from developing Into a panic
of the proportions of that of 187JI. It
will not ttop the transfer of monpy to
Europe for goods bought In anticipa
tion of a rise caused by tho Tariff bill.
Conscfptcntly tho Treasury will havo
to do moro than buy $ 80,000.000 of ll
per cent, bonds at a premium. This
order had the effect to relievo tho money
market yesterday, nnd money on call
fell from nearly 300 per cent, on Thurs
day to 0.
Hut tho effects of this financial strin
gency is not confined to New York or
other money contcrs. It Is widespread.
Tho demand for money to movo crops
Is great. This money Is largely distri
buted by small banks In tho interior.
Thcto have had for some llttlo tlmo now
to pay 8 and 10 per cent, on call loans
to meet overdrafts on their Now York
correspondents. Money thus obtained,
they aro compelled to lend nt 0 per
cent., thus losing 3 to 't per cent.
They will not, Indeed they cannot,
stand this long. They will be obliged
to laise their rates of Interest or refuso
to lend money. Then hard times will
set In In very onrnot. The longer the
passage of the McKlnley bill Is post
poned the worse It will be. Tbe situa
tion will probatilv, u nleas fully relieved,
be at Its word In Oclobor. This will
set golnir a tidal wave which will strand
tho Q. O. I'., as did those of 1S71 and
168'-'.
At the Treasury Department!! Issitd
Hint the Secretary 's call for 9O,O00,0OO
will probably result In offers aggre
gating nt least DO per cent, of the entire
series of 41 per cent, bonds within the
next ilxly days.
Kven with all the help the Treasury
can afford It will be about four months
beforo tho financial situation will settle
down to lis normal condition and money
be "easy." The whole trouble has
been caused by the agitation of the
Tariff quostlon and the lone; delay In
the passage of the Tariff bill, since It
became certain months ago that It
would result In Increasing the duty on
many products of foreign farms and
factories.
In tbe meantime Secretary Wlndom
l consulting Wall street.
Senator Hoar told a Massachusetts
Itepubllcan member to day that he was
dissatisfied with the postponement of tbe
Force bill until next section, It coming
up then under a special order. In fact,
the Ancient Mariner says that, aban
doning hope of ite p-iseage at
this session, be has beeu con
tending for this result for
some days past. He rather plumes
himself on the faet that It was his
speech on Wednesday that did the
business.

"At the request of, ami by appoint

said Mrs. O'Nell to the reporter, "I
called at the House wing of the Capitol
on August 21. When I arrived at the
lmfement. east entrance of the Capitol,
I asked permission lo leave a basket,
which I had with me, at the Fostofllce
of the House of Itepresentattves, but
was politely ret used that privilege.
"I then proceeded to the olevator,
and, while walling for the same, seated
myself In a near standing vacant chair,
dust as I had seated myself Mrs. Char
lotte Smith came from upstairs and,
being acquainted with her. I exchange'!
greetings. She asked me what brought
me to the Capitol. I rcpltexl that the
Hon. W. 15. Mason of Illinois,
who has often befriended me, has told
me to call nt the Capitol and to send for
him. Mrs. Smith thereupon told me
that I could not see Mr. Mason, as he
was on tho floor delivering a speech.
"Captain Albaugh came up and took
hold of my basket by force and pushed
me aside. That such a brutal proceed
ing towards an old nnd Invalid woman
of over 70 years of ago and the widow
of n Moxlcan soldier aroused tho Indig
nation of all around mo needs not fur
ther explanation. Mrs. Charlotte
Smith, tho defender of tho weak and
helpless as well as aged, upbraided the
Captain for bis brutal manner, where
upon tho Captain told her and me
that he would arrest us both and put
us by force out of tho building. Mrs.
Charlotte Smith, knowing her rights
and nble to maintain them, defied him
to carry out his throat."

A TRAGIC SEQUEL TO TnE LAST CAM
PAI0N IN VIRGINIA.

Kollonitd by Dentil nil

IIOCKY MOfST. FlIANKMN COUSTV,
V.., Aug. 38. There was unacted Iti
this town yesterday afternoon a tragic
sequel to the exciting contest made last
fall for the Governorship of Virginia,
made memorable by tho lnllammatory
speeches delhered by General Mahone
and his followers, and the bitter feeling
engendered among the negroes and
Ignorant whites, who looked upon Ma
hone as their political Moses, a feeling
that culminated In the destruction by
tiro of the greater portion of this place.
For this ci fine George Karly aud Illrd
Woods were hanged, ami the same
scaffold will be used September 10 for
executing Willi im llrown and his mis
tress, Naunle Woods, convicted also of
arson.
Both men made short talks, but
neither confessed. Woods said hU own
race had lied on hlui and brought him
to the gallows, but he was Innocent.
Karly talked five minutes, aud said he
had lied on tbe trial, but bad beeu for
given. Neither man's neck was broken,
and tbe bodies wore turned over to
f i lends for burial.
There had been ominous rumors of an
attempt on ibe part of the negroes to
prevent the execution of the coademued,
but tbe authorities were on the alert ami
had the jail guarded by soldiers, who
were also on duty at the scaffold. An
immense crowd gathered to witness the
execution, but contrary to expectation
it was not a public one. There wns no
trouble.
THIS CRtMK
for which the men pah! tke extreme
penalty was a remarkable oae. Makoae
paid hie first visit to lloeky Mount and
was gives a royal reception. He made
a seech that greatly inflamed bis
hearere, most of whom were negroes.
The same night tbe Democrats also
held a camuelga meeting here, but
tbeiiswas behl In a large warehouse
that Makoae's people bad tried in vaia
to ficure. This tired tbe malicious
hearts of some of Ike black politicians
of tbe place, and that night tkey de
teimineu to burn tke ton a la revenge
for tbe affront put uaoa tkeir political
boss. Twenty six stores aad dwelllags
were burned, aad ataay of tbe iauwtea
i f the buildings barely escaped with
b-ir lives.
Utile was saved, aad it was a marvel
ibat ao lives were lost. It was a
A SCKkB Of TKKBOK
well calculated to appall tke stoutest
kearts. Tke Are burned everytkiag
wltkia Its reach, aad all efforts to Im
pede Us progress proved futile.
Tkat aigkt it was aouceable tkat tke

of participation ia setting lire to tke
warekouae, took but little interest ia ex

easily told. Prosperous cUkteag were

Tmrbr Hauth, Ind,. Aug. 98.
Twelve substantial - looking, well
dressed men mounted the steps to the
first floor of the Torre Haute Iloim at
0 60 o'clock this morning and pawed
In single file into the spacious club
room that is designated ns No. 03.
When the last man had entered the
eleven ranged themselves around a
big table at tho farther end of the
apartment, while the twelfth locked
tho door from tho inside. Then tho
sharp rap of n gavel upon the oaken
table was heard, nnd the listeners In the
corridor knew that the special session
of the Supreme Council of tho Federa
tion of llallroad 1'mployca. and who
will dectdo whether or not tlmtorsanl
7atlon shall extend Its support to the
Knights of Labor by declaring n general
strlko upon the New York Central
road, had been formally called to order.
The participants In the gathorlng are:
Grand Master Sargent, who presides;
Grand Secretary Debs, who olllclntos as
secretary, and .1. J. Hannahan of Chi
cago, all of the llrolherhood of Lncom-i
tlo 1'lrcmen; Grand Chief Howard, J.
.1. Nelson of at. Louis and G. V. Love
Icy of Tcrre Haute, rcpresentlna the
llrotherhocd of Hallway Conductors,
Uracil Master Sweeney, Vice Grand
Master Downey and Grand Oriranler
Hall of Chicago, representing the
Switchmen's Mutual Aid Association,
aril Grand Master Morrltcy. S G Wll
Mn mn and Grand Secretary Sliohun, all
of Galeshurg aud representing the
Utothirhood of llallroad Trainmen.
Sweeney was the last of the council
to arrive, and It was nearly !i o'clock
this morning when he placed hli auto
graph on the register of the hotel. The
chief of the switchmen, who has at
tracted no little attention as a result of
his utterances In
ori'oeiTiox to a hthikk,
did not appear to be In the most amiable
of moods, aud quickly sought his room.
He was one of the tlrst, however, to ap
pear in the dining room this morning,
and penned with evident relish a New
York press dispatch in a morning pa
per, which represented that Sweeney's
attitude had beeu pretty severely crltl
d(d by the heads of the Knights of
Labor. It was noticed that the other
delegates, as they meandered by one and
twos Into the dining room, hail little to
say to the switchman, the majority con
tenting themselves w lilt a nod or a word
of recognition.
Nine o'clock was the time set for the
opeelug of the Supreme Council, but at
that hour the representatives of the con
ductors had not put In an appearance,
and the delegates grouited themselves
on the sidewalk outside of the hotel and
told stories, laughed, and Joked, ami
talked about everything except the Im
portant business that had called them
together. It was a decidedly jolly
GOOD XATl HKU 1 ITTI.K l.ATHKHIKU,
ami there was nothing in the demeanor
of a single mau to Indicate that they
would soon be called upon to settle a
question Involving the continued em

Immense financial loss and tremendous
Incoavenlence, not to asy hardships, to
tens of thousands of people. It kail
originally been steaded to bold tke

that Mr. Chauncey M. Depew took the

notified his friends that he will arrive
In London Saturday night and sail to

Nkw Yoiik, Aug. 33. A special to
the HemM from Washington says that
a question of great Importance at this
time has been raised In connection with
the strike of the K. of L. on the New
York Central road. It is whether the
members of the Executive Hoard of
District Assembly, No. 240, are not
liable lo be proceeded against under the
provisions of tho act entitled "An act
to protect trade and commerce against
unlawful restraints and monopo
lies." It is known In Congressional
parlance as tho "Anti-Trust bill." A
prominent United States Senator Is
quoted as saying, thatwhllo the spirit of
tho law evidently does not aim at
strikes, he has no doubt that If a teat
caso he made It will result In the con
viction of the men.
tYetjb'fi Statement Denied,
Nkw Yoiik, Aug. 33, This morning
Mr. Hayes, secretary to tho General
Kxccutlvo Hoard of the Knights, made
the following statement:
"It Is a very strange thing that Mr.
Webb rhotild only now aay that the
Knights discharged from the employ of
tho load were discharged for drunken
nets. Incapacity nnd Insubordination
If this was tho fact It Is a proper case
for atbltratlon, and one that the Stale
Iloeid should take hold of
"Our Kxecutlve Board have, how
ever, gono thoroughly Into that m liter
and know there Is not one word of truth
In what o bsays."
Mr. Hayes further stated that the
board would have no meeting today,
but tuat they would leave for Albany In
the evening.
At the Grand Central Depot Mr.
Webb most positively denied that there
was any truth In the report that Mr.
Depew would sail from Southampton

THE ARGUMENTS OF THE LAWYERS.
Jadpe Bradtey Takse the Cae Uwier Ad-
vifmnl" k Dttfeien Will Be
Kedered on Monday.
The Btttlls habeas corpus case occu
pled the attention of .fudge Bradley
yesterday afternoon until t o'clock, at
which hour he adjourned court until
this morning at 10. Mr. Barker took
nl out an hour for the opening argu
ment. He held that there was really no
oxtiadltlon treaty existing between the
Territory of Utah and the District of
Columbia, but Judge Bradley corrected
lilm on this point ami said that there
was a statute In force.
Mr. Barker next attacked the writ of
requisition under which his client,
Bullls, had been turned over to the
custody of Hugh Turner. The alll
davits upon which the writ had lieen
executed wore Insulllclenl, and did not
allege that any rime was set forth, and
If there was It was on a date when the
petitioner was not In the Territory of
Utah. The attorney placed mttrli force
In his argument as to whether Mr.
Turner was" the proper person to have
custody of llm petitioner. He charac
terised the manner In which tills agent
from Utah hnd kidnapped lltillit as an
unwarranted outrage. More than tb-ti.
the man had proved by his own tent
nmiiy that Turner was a resident of
Idaho, and not of Utah.
Mr. C Maurice Smith opened hUsldo
In behalf of .Mr Turner by ciylnir tint
Attorney llsrker had laid himself llatile
urder the law for going to itockvlllu
and Interfering In any way with Bullls
and for bringing him to this city. Mr
Smith went over the extradition paiers
thoroughly and declared that they were
In every respect the most complete he
had ever seen. In order to make thorn
doubly fkctire Frances, the mm from
whom it was alleged Bullls had obtained
money by fa!e representations, had at
tached two lntad of one affidavit.
Mr. Smith thU mornlmi took up the
defense of Mr. Turner and argued that
he had a perfect right to do what he
had done lu taking lilm to Hockvllle.
Mr. Smith clilms that tils Honor, In
giving bis decision, must lie governed
exclusively by the returns made In the
case. Hugh Turner was the legally
authorized agent of the Territory of
Utah, aud If the Court thought that the
agent was not a responsible one, then he
was willing that any respectable person
be selected to accompany himself ami
Bullls to Salt Lake City. Mr. Smith
maintained that there was
NO LKOU. liUolSIl
on which the petitioner could be given
bU freedom. Tke attldavit Died by
Mr. Webb, In order to obtalu tho writ
of habeas corpus, set forth practically
nothing as to the conspiracy charged to
have been euttred Into between Messrs.
Turner, Francis and Holladsy. became
be (Webb) knew nothing about it. He
knew only what be had heard.
As to tbe iiuestlon whether Bullls
was a fugitive from tbe Territory of
U'ah Mr. Turner swore that be ob
tained tbe money at Salt Lake on tbe
HHk day of September, lhM, but BullW
made affidavit that be left there for
Washington on either tbe 10th or 17ih
of September. This affidavit was made
by a man wko was looking for bis
liberty, and bU word ought aot have
muck weight as against tke officials
and reputable citieas of Utah Mr.
-uiih quoted many laws ia support of
bis position.
Mr Barker took up tke closing argtt
BMttt this atotaiag, ami appealed to tke
court to carefully eoaakkr tke way in
wkkk Mr. Tuiat-r directly evaded tke
writ of knb4a eorjju4 emanating frost a
court of tke klgheet authority ia tke
1 Ht i let. Ig answer to tke assertion
made by the counsel oa tke other side
ibat ike going to Koekville after Bullls
was tot to kelp him evade justice, but
u return kirn to justice. Mr. Barker
said tkat to the contrary Mr Turner
carted him around la order to aot allow
the was justice. Mr. Barker west over
tke atfdavtti aetata aad showed wkere
It was charged that Bullls was a
rtoiTiiE ruoM j t STICK.
Stlil at the sawc Owe tk affidavit states
tkat ke oUaiaed the tsoaey aad pro
ceeded to Washiagtua to get his motor
pateat perfected.
Mr. Barker declared twatt ew-pbatk-airy
tkat the atuatty el erged to
have keea received ia Utah Was actually
paid ia Washington, aad thaaefoee ao
crime had bee cowwitted there. The
woaey cawe frost Francis to Bullls by

lionThe Citiifn of the
Tronlilp.
Ni,w Yohk. Aug. 2!t A special cable
to the lltrtiM from the city of Santo
Domingo, via Havana, says:
Information has reached this capital
that on the night rf August 30 about
!00 Haytlan troops stationed near the
frontier of the Dominican republic In
vaded the territory of this country.
The Dominican Government at once
dUpatched an armed force to drive out
the Intruders. The Dominican troop
w ere successful and repulsed the enemy,
killing twenty three men ami wounding
a number of otliets The Dumlnleatis
had but four soldiers Injured.
Ureal indignation is felt here at
llayll's aetlun In this Invasion of Do
minican soil, ami the Dominican Cabi
net has 1m in railed together bv President
Ullte Huerrcaux to consider the ad
visability of declaring war against
llaytl.
President Huerreaux said to day that
the real cause of the trouble wat that In
1875 ami 187 a treaty for commercial
purposes was entered Into between the
Haytlan and Dominican government
which at the tame time defined the
boundaries of the two countries. A
special stipulation of this treaty wah
that llaytl was to make use of a nortton
1 of Dominican territory which she
necuiit, ami which r-nio iiomlago was
to allow to be so used on condition that
Haytl should pay annually to tbe Domi
nican Government I3t.uoo at long m
she retained possession of the loaned
territory. Haytl was, moreover, to per
mit all Imports from Santo Domingo lo
enter Into Haytl free of duty, llaytl
has not paid tbe f 150,000 for a number
of years, and now owes something over
f2.tiOO.OUO.
Haytl, however, alleges that there It
so much mm Imported from Santo Do
mingo that tbe Haytlan revenues ate
greatly suffering. Haytl wishes to
make an end to ker bargain aad at the
same time retain posseteiott of Uw
loaned land.
Senort Francisco Ionte Vaeque Ami
Manual De J. tialvan, the consul gen
eral and consul, respectively, of tbe
Dominican Government ia this city,
state tkat ikey have received no official
intimation from tkeir government that
any outbreak ot Invasion had occurred,
on the Island
They knew tkat there was sotae sort of
trouble brewing between Haytl ami
Santo Domingo, but tkey could not say
to w bat extent it had developed- Thar
bad also beard it said tkat private ad
vices kad been received by persona kf
that there kad been a dittulnaee be
tween tbe two countries, but they had
kerned nose of tbe partkuUrs.
