Washington,Aug. lli. Carter ilisaiv-^pcared to-day ami lie has Ml told any of^his frit'inU where lie lias ({^lie. O'Brien,^treasurer of tlie congressional committee,^thought that he anil Mrs. Carter hail gone^l^ Helena, tint it is probable that he lias^gone to the eastward on campaign busi^^ness. The opinion among the unin^^formed republicans in the house is that^Carter will lie nominated for congress in^spite of his letter of declination.
I'liiniblost his tight against the lead ore^to-day, and Sanders, assisted by Power,^who stuck to him closer than a leech,^made a vigorous speech for the carbonate^side of the ipiestioii. The conferees will^keep it ill the lull.

Washington,Aug. 9L In the houseto-^day l.V.t uiemliers responded to their^names ami P' niemlKTs reported their^presence to the clerk. The speaker pro^tern announced that there was a ipioruni^pn sent.
Morganmoved an adjouriiuieiit, saying^he believed some agreement on the lard^bill could be reached. Tlie motion was
lost.
(aim..ii then offered a resolution direct^^ing the sergeant-at-arnis to notify the ale^sent ineinliers to return to Washington^without delay and revoking all leaves of^absence except those granted on account^of illness. The resolution recites that^twice to-d.iy legislative proceedings were^interrupted by the want of a quorum;^that certain members (mentioning their^n.inn s answered their names under calls^but did not respond on regular roll call.
Blount,( rain and others protested^against tlie resolution, saying it was an^unjust arraignment of every member^mentioned in it and its adoption would^censure those members.
Therewas great confusion in the house.^PllUjr a dozen nu ll were ni; their feet de^^manding recognition on the question of^personal privilege and their efforts to sc^^ion-such recognition was heartily sec^^onded by their friends.
FinallyCraig was recognized and said:
This to nothing but a petty species of^bulldozing, the object being to threaten^us in order to compel us to vote.
Hendersonof Iowa said nothing in the^resolution could be construed into cen^^sure. Cannon said (he naming of the^gentlemen in the resolution was but show^^ing exactly what the roll called. Turner^of New York, said the gentlemen from^Illinois had been playing to the press gal^^lery, he then criticized the resolution in^a speech of three-quarters of all hour. At^the conclusion of the speech the bouse ad^^journed.
INCREASING THE BURDENS.
AnotherHay of Talk on the Tarltt Oues-^tion In the senate.
w\siiini.ton,Aug. lv The memoran^^dum OsTefedby Aldrieh yesterday llxing^the t ine for consideration of and voting^on the tarill' bill was presented, and after^Home discussion it was agreed to by im.ili^^um his consent.
Theconference report on the sundry^civil service appropriation bill was read.
Theparagraph in regard to reservoir^sites which reserves from entry all such^sites, was criticised by Sanders, who^thanked the senate conferees ironically^for having sacrificed the interests of the^people of Montana to the insensible law^of tile house.
Allisondefended the action of the sen^^ate conferees and explained the extreme^difficulty they had encountered in dealing^with the subject. He reviewed brielly the^history of tin- irrigation survey and^charged the house as responsible for en^^grafting reservations in the arid lauds^proposition of our sundry civil appropria^^tion bill in b^. thereby causing all the^trouble. He avowad it as having been the^intention of the senate conferees to have^t ic whole irrigation survey wiped out of^existence as far as possible, but they had^been confronted by the people who in^^sisted that the survey should go on and^In come a part of the settled and perma^^nent policy of the government. '1 he re^^sult had been a provision now proposed^to Im- inserted in the sundry civil bill.^That provision was not what Im would^have wished it tube; was not what the^senate conferees wished, but was the best^solution they could secure.
Keagandefended tlie past aetii m of con^^gress in the matter of reserving reservoir^sites front setili inent, and s.ud bad it not^been for that reservation those lands^would have MM seiz^d by s|ieculators^and aj jdlcatoli
Thetarill bill was then taken up, the^question beingOQ the lead paragrai.h, to
whichCoke Lad offered aii amendment
lothe bill on lead extracted from silver^ores to be import! d free of duty, and^Plumb offered one reducing tb# duty on
leadore ami h ad dross from 11. to '4^cents.
Iteforeproceeding with the paragraph^Plumb gave notice of amendment) to MM^lull, whic h he would pearlie forsil the ap^^propriate tune. TIM amendment w is^read. It is i with some few mollifications^the bill for reciprocity with ( .mad,i, iii-
Irodueedby Butterwortb in the bout*
Plumbproposes to restrict (he o|ieration^of the reciprocal arrangement to manu^^factured articles and minerals. Plumb^then spoke in favor of his amendment.
Sandersopposed the two ameinlments.^At the close of the discussion Plumb's^amendment to reduce the duly mi lead^ore from I1 - cents |^ r pound was voted on^and rejected.
Carter'samendment making lead ex-^Iracted from silver ore fre^. of duty was^then voted mi ami also rejected. No other^amendment was offered to this parage.q h^ami none to the next two paragraphs.^Lead in pigs J cents |mt |Hiuml, und lead^in sheets '^'^ ^ cents per pound.
Theparagraph relating to metallic min^^er.d substances m lt crude slate, not^specially provided for, having Im-i-ii^reached. Hlair s|^oke against the amend^^ment reported by the finance committee,
strikingout the duty of ^ cents mi mica.^It went over without action.
Thenext paragraph, putting a duty of^;t cents per pound on crude nickel, was
strickenout on the rtiiiinend.ilion of
thefinance committee. The next para^^graph, relating to nickel and nickel oxide,^was amended under the report of the^finance committee by reducing the duty^from U toS cents pi r pound. The par i-^graph relating to watches was amended^on the recoiiiiueiidatioii of the finance^committee by making the duty mi all^watches L'.'i percent, ad valorem.
Theparagraph relating to zinc in blocks^or pigs was amended on tin- recommenda^^tion of tbe finance committee by reducing^the duly from 1'4 to 11. cents per pound.^The committee substitute for the para^^graph as to metal manufactures, not^specially provided for was agreed to.
ScheduleD, ^wood and manufactures of^wood,^ having been reached, Mi-Pliers. ^u^wished t^ oiler a substitute for the whole^schedule, Inn he reserved it until the^committee amendments should he dis^^posed of. The paragraph relating lo^sawed Isiards, etc., was, on the recom^^mendation of the committee, amended by^reducing the duly from ^ |^er cent, lo In^per cent., and by adding the words, ^im^^posing a duty of 11) |m'r cent, on veenei-s^not especially provided for.^ The next^paragraph, on pickets and paling-, was^amended by reducing the duty from J^^|ht cent, to lit |kt cent., and the next^paragraph by reducing the duty from lt.'i^toil) cents per thousand.
Aldriehmoved to amend the paragraph^winch puts a duty of In per cent, on chair^cane manufactured, but not made into^finished articles, by striking out the words^^maiiufactiucd but not made into fin^^ished articles,^ and inserting in lieu of I^them the words, ^or reeds whether '^wrought or Manufactured from rattans or^reeds, ami whether round, square or any^other shape.^ Agreed to.
ScheduleE relating to sugar having^been reached, Aldrieh said the com^^mittee proposed to let that schedule be^passed on r informally for the present, so^that schedule F, relating to tobacco and^its manufactures would Is- the llrst thing^to come up to-morrow.
THE STRIKERS MEET

NkwYoWV Aug. It.^About tflX per^^sons, including curiosity-seekers, and a^heavy police force, attended the mass^meeting of tin- Knights of Labor in I'mon^Square to-night. It did not equal either^ill number 'or enthusiasm the ^ xpeeta-^tions of the projectors of the meeting.^Interest centered mainly in Powderly,^Tbe former employee of the New ^irk^( Mitral in this city, marched in a body^lo the squats' behind a drum corps. Mrs.
MargaretMoore, who figure* prominently
inIrish polities in this city, gave a livi-^uiinute address. Sh^UIMelled organiza^^tion among the laboring classes and advo^^cated self reliance.
Aletter of regret for nou-attendance
Madfrom Samuel (ionipers, preeidl nt of^the federation of labor. He sympathized^with the men and denounced the attempt^of the company to crush their organiza^^tion.
I'owderlywas the next speaker. He
sr.id:^You may feeldtohcartonedbecause
theTelle Haute convention did not de^^clare a general strike. Your executive^board did not expect it would. All M ex^^pected was to have their support, anil^they are wilh us borae, foot ami artillery.^Ithccrsi. They say our battle must go^on, and go mi it will. The Central rail^^road officera may talk about gooda being^delivered, but they don't tell the truth.
Thereare many merchants m New York
whoknow different.
Powderlythen took up Webb's charges,^that the MM were dismissed for drunken^^ness orotbec ^ .m~es prejudicial to the in^^terests of the company. The speaker next^dealt with Chief Arthur. He said Arthur^recently sat on the platform with railroad^otllccrs at New Haven and there they put^their arms ^ round his neck.
Thestrike which we have inaugu^^rated,^ ho said, ^is not only a strike of^the people of New York, but of tin- people^of America.

Mlssoti.v, Aug. Lli. 'The case of the I^Slate vs. Tillman came up before Justice^T.vaus, sitting in the district court risun.^this afternoon. Tillman is the first of^several men against whom complaints^were entered. Ill which they were charged^Wlthstcahiigcattlc w Inch weres| uightered^at Bennett's slaughter house. These cases^have excited considerable interest here^from the fact that a number of cattle^have lieen missed by stockmen in this^neighborhood, and as a number of hides^wen- found in the river near Hentn it's^slaughter house, c ut ill such a way as to^obliterate the brands, the idea has gained^a strong foothold tint many of the loot^i attic wen^ killed Iherc.
Tillmanwas charged with grand lar^^ceny, the specification Is-ing that he stole
acow belonging to Hell Bros, of Stevens-^vdlc, which was killed at Bennett's^slaughter bouse about two weekl ago^Dtatnct Attorney Webster, assisted by^Judge Woody, conducted the prosecution,^and Judge Kceves and Attorney Murray^the defense. 'The Hi st w itness was Inn^Hess, who, acting as a deputy sheriff,^arrested Tillman. He told the circumstan^^ces attending tlie aw st. Deputy H he riff
Houstonw as then called. He was followed^by Constable Logan, whose testimony w is^much the same as that of Hess. He told^how Tdlm.in spurred his horse win u he^saw the otllccrs coming. Mr. Hell ofKte-^veiisville was next put mi the witness^stand and told that the cow whose hide
wasin tinii rt house yard belonged to
himand his brother and that they bail^never sold her to Bennett or aiiyl ody else.^He also testified to a man's meeting him^m ar Ins home and saying he was sent by^Mr. Hi nuctt and showing him twobdlsof^s.de, one transferring the cow from Bell^Brothers to him for Jl^i and the other^transferring bee from bun lo 0, A. Ben^^nett. Mr. Hell also leslllled tll.lt tills
Occurredafter the cow had bjCCH killed^and that the in.in told luin thai Mr. Ben*^m tt had s.ud be w as to satisfy Bell Bros.,^if not wilh fin then with inure, an at^^tempt in w hich he failed. Next came W.
II.Leedy, w ho lives m ar a Hat beyond^Miller's ereck from which the cow is said^to have been taken, who lest died to hav^^ing seen 'Tillman and another man mi^thai Hat mi the day oil w hich the cow is^alleged to have been stolen. He^said further that Tillman told^him In- was there gathering^up some cattle for ti. A. Bennett. Mr.^Angst, a butcher residing in this city, was^the Bjelt witness, but his testimony w as^unimportant. He was followed by Joe^Demontier, n boy Ii; years old, w ho is Mr.^Leedy's herder. He ii-tilled to teeing^I illni in and another man on the Hat to^^rood Miller's creek on Sunday, August^lo, the day of tin-alleged stealing, and to^having seen them lying in tin- brush there^from hia. in. until I or *^ p.m. for three^^ ^r fourd.iys preceding that. Deputy sdicritl^M. A ey ^ as ui \t e died,but w as not allowed
totestify. Constable Logan was recalled,
butwas not allowed to testify. 'The i ourl^then adjourned until I o'clock to-morrew^liiortiuig, the defense giving notice that^they would move that the defendant Is-^^ h-missed, because sufficient proof of his^guilt had not Im en produced to hold aim^over to the grand jury. Judge Uecvvshus^id.eady said that he will proveth.it tin^whole mailer was a mistake on Tillman's^part. 'That will doubtless be tin line
