J., Nov. 3.—About «0 excited men collected on Tenth street here and uttered threats against the Kavassa Phosphate company. The company a year ago put up n notice at their New York of fice, 10 Battery place, calling for 100 men to go to tlie island of Navassa, in the West Indies. They offered to pay boatmen #13 a mouth and phosphate diggers $10 a month. The men were to be boarded and lodged at the company's expense. Sixty-five men shipped on the bark Albe marle, commanded by William Forbes. The bark is now lying in the Kill von KuU. It brought back 03 of the men. Two died of sunstroke at Navassa. The survivors tell a pitiful story. They say that when the vessel reached Navassa in December, 1892, they were searched and everything taken from them. Edward Reilly, one of the men, says he was imprisoned for 30 days la-cause he com plained of diseased meat given to him to eat. After digging the phosphate it was put into boxes, each holding two tons. A rope was put around a man's neck, and as sisted by three of bis fellow lal»>rcrs he had to drag the phosphate over a irmmvny for a distance of two miles to t in- shore. When the men could not perform all of the heavy task set them, they were docked a half day's pay or put in prison. Frequent ly prisoners were strapped face downward to a heavy log. The men suffered from thirst. The water they were given to drink was rainwater. Often it was two mouths old. They hod to pay for bedding, clothing and tobacco at excessive rates at the company's store. he company's officers went about heavily armed to intimidate tbe workmen. The men say they wrote letters of com plaint to President Cleveland, but never received an answer. The men at Perth Amboy allege that in 1891 workingmen shipped to Navassafrom Baltimore were so ill that a riot broke out. The United States warship Kearsarge was sent to Navassa to suppress it. Some of tbe men are in great distress and have been cared for by charitable people here. They say tbe Albermarle is nothing less than a slave ship, and they have consulted a local lawyer about placing an embargo upon It. President Crawford of the Third National bank in Baltimore is said to be president of the Phosphate company. Tbe Albe marle's officers deny that any of the men were ill treated. T Rome lalttl« Fires.

THE SESSION MAY BE PROLONGED. The Coming Tariff right In the lionne 1« Foreshadowed by a Scene In That Body. The Serpeant-at-arma Sent Out to Drum Up a Quorum. Washing roN, Nov. 8.—The first skir mish over the tariff in the fifty-third con gress occurred in the house, and after u deadlock lasting until 8:50 in the evening it resulted in a draw. Tbe senate amend ment to the urgency deficiency hill pro viding pay for senate employees during the recess and the fifty-first congress is now the only bar to final adjoun. :u-nt today. The senators on the confèrent-; committee declare tfiey will never recede, and the house seems equally determined 1 , to ac cept the amendment. A resolution to adjourn Friday was re ported by Mr. Hatchings of Mississippi from the committee on rules, and the pre vious question was joyfully and vocifer ously ordered. A lively debate followed, in which Representatives Terry of Arkan sas and Clark of Missouri opposed any pro longed recess or adjournment. Resolved to Adjourn. The yeas and nays on the adjournment resolution were called for and resulted In its passage by an affirmative vote of 134 to 83 in tbe negative. The tieup which followed was occasioned by the fact that the bouse passed the ad journment resolution before Mr. Wilson put iu bis resolution to authorize bis com mittee to sit duriug the approaching re cess, and It was upon that resolution that was raised the point of no quorum. The adjournment resolution in tbe senate was referred to the committee on appropria tions, so that there is good prospect of de laying adjournment. A resolution was adopted revoking leaves of absence and instructing the sergeaut-at arms to arrest absentees. For three hours the members of the house waited patiently for the appearance of the absentees. Meantime the deputies of the sergeant-at-arms were scouring the city with subpoenas for absent members. At 7:40 Mr. Wilson moved to dispense with further proceedings under the call. This was for the purpose of developing whether or not the Democrats had u quorum of their own present, the Democrats them selves voting against tbe motion. The vote resulted 9 to 150. Upon the announce ment Mr. Reed arose and offered to com promise. It being apparent, he said, that no quo rum was present on tbe Democratic side, and if one were to be obtained tbe siege would be much prolonged, he offered, as the size of the transaction did not warrant a protracted fight, a counter proposition to amend tbe resolution giving the ways and means committee permission to sit during the recess •<> as to permit the chairman to file the tariff bill, with the understanding that the reports thereon shall be filed not less than 10 days later. This proposition Mr. Wilson accepted, provided the word "tariff" before bill be changed to "revenue." The controversy being amicably settled, the house proceeded to untangle tbe parliamentary knot into which it had worked itself, after which Mr. Sayers, from the committee on appropria tions, presented the conference report on tbe urgency deficiency bill, and asked that tbe bouse insist on its disagreement to the senate amendment to pay #31,000 to senate employees for work done during the recess of the fifty-first congress. He explained that this money should have come out af the contingent fund of the senate and that the last congress bad refused to pay it. The house, by a vote of 120 to 4, decided to not recede from its position. Then at 8:30 In tbe Senate. Tbe house joint resolution allowing the Columbian museum at Chicago to accept or purchase articles for its own exclusive %ie free from customs duties was passed by tbe senate, all other portions of the res olution being struck out. A conference has been asked on the disagreeing votes. The senate bill to grant right of way to the Kansas. Oklahoma Central and South western Railroad company through the Indian Territory and Oklahoma territory was reported from the committee on Indian affairs and passed. The house bill providing for constructing a steam revenne cutter for service on the great lakes not to exceed #175,000 was re ported and passed. The senate discussed the cyclone relief resolution, and a strong argument was made in its favor by Mr. Call. Mr. Stewart introduced another free coinage silver bill. Mr. Hoar made an effort to obtain action on the bill for tbe relief of tbe sufferers from tbe cyclone on tbe sea islands and along the coast of South Carolina and Georgia. The third reading of the bill was objected to by Mr. Cockrell, aud the vice president ruled that under thd'rule it could not have its third reading just then. Then a motion was made by Mr. Gorman to refer tbe bill to tbe committee on appro priations. That motion was discussed until 2 o'clock, when tbe bill went over without action, and the Chinese bill was taken up as unfinished business. Tbe Chinese bill was passed without division. Tbe Chinese bill is the bouse bill un amended. It extends for six months tbe time under which Chinese can register un der tbe Geary law aud for tbe deportation after this time of any Chinese laborer found in tbe United States without a cer tificate of registration. It provides that the word laborer shall lie construed to mean skilled and unskilled laborers, while a Chinese merchant shall be a Chinaman de voted exclusively to mercantile pursuits and not engaged os a laborer at all. It changes the provisions of the Geary law concerning witnesses in that instead of requiring a white witness it requires that the witness shall be other than a Chi naman. Pending the order of deportation the Chinaman to be deported cannot be bailed. Certificates of registration are to contain the photograph of the applicant. Tariff Bill Not Yet Reported.

GrEENHBUBO, Pa., Nov. 8 .—A gang of counterfeiters were surprised in the Ijutrel Hill mountains, about four miles from Waterford.

ABOUT THAT SEA DUEL 15 ing ed a of The Cruiser New York Will Not Interfere With It. son OUR ATTITUDE TOWARD BRAZIL Wlml They Think nt Washington Concern ing the Possible Naval Duel OCT Bandy Bonk—The Fleet, of Fre.ldent f'.lxnto and the In.argent Mello. Washington', Nov. 8.— A new feature of the Brazilian situation arising In connec tion with the purchase by President Peix oto's agents of American »hips for use by Brazil in her civil troubles has been br.mght to the attention of the slate and navy de partments. This has its basis in the state ments that have been printed In the news papers that the crack cruiser New York, now luting out fur sea at the New York navy yard, would act as a convoy to the American vessels purchased by Brazil as far as the three mite limit off the Brazilian shore, or to some point near Brazilian ter ritory, where they could V turned over to the government of Bra/il, the manifest purpose being to thwart any attempts that might bo made by Admiral Melio, com manding the insurgent fleet, to destroy tbe vessels before they reach Brazilian waters. The Cruiser Will Take Mo Part. Still another aspect of the case has lieen suggested to tbeoffleiais—viz, that tbe New Y'ork is to convoy the Brazilian fleet while the latter displays the American Hag un til some point near Brazil is reached, when the vessels are to bo turned over to the ex isting recogniz >. government. A reporter interviewed a number of of ficials on the subject. They treat tbe mat ter very lightly and scout tbe probability or even the possibility of any such events taking place as those referred to. Tbe cardinal principle, it is asserted, which this government wants to have maim allied and adhered to is that of noninterference with the affairs of Brazil. To order the cruiser to be used for either of tbe purposes stated would lie In direct contravention to this principle, and would be an announcement to tbe nations of the world that this republic had espoused the cause of Brazil and was arraigned on tbs side of the recognized government ns against the insurgent party, which it has not even recognized as belligerent. To al low the New York to convoy the vessels to Brazil would lie analogous, it is said, to one of tbe United States cruisers now in the harbor of Rio de Janeiro acting as an escort to an unarmed loyal Brazilian gov ernment vessel which desired to pass one of the forts now in the hands of the insur gents. Supposing, however, tbe probabili ties of such actions, the convoyed ships, it is insisted, would not be any safer when they readied Brazilian waters with the cruiser than they would lie without her, for they would then lie subject to attack Just tbe same as if they were on tbe open seas, snd no good result would be obtained. Arm. May It« Bold, Though* Naval officers say they cannot recall any Instances where action and interference, as this would be, has ever been resorted to on the part of this government, and they pro nounce both reports to be simply imagina tive and without any foundation In foot. The government, must not, they insist. In terfere in the domestic affairs of Brazil or any other country further than to protect its own citizens and see that Iheydouot suffer as a result of internal difficulties. It must be borne in mind, however, that there is nothing to prevent tbe shipmentof arms and ammunition to Brazilian ports or to any other country by vessels flying the American flag. In fact, the government does not restrict but rather encourages the Mile of arms aud ammunition to foidlgn powers, not with any desire, however, to meddle with tlisir affairs or to help any contending party, but merely for the purpose of building up American '' du «tries. But tbe line is emphatically drawn, and tbe government will promptly institute in quiries should it lie led to believe that any vessel or vessels are being fitted out in this country for the use of any Insurgent or revolutionary party. This was forcibly demonstrated in the case of tbe steamer Itata, which was fitted out on the Pacific coast with arms and ammunition fur tbe insurgent party iu Chili two yesrs ago, but which was promptly pursued and over hauled by a vessel of tbe United States and her cargo forfeited.
