WOOL SCHEDULES DEBATED
AND BRYAN'S CONTRIBUTION
CONSIDERED
Even Bitter Partisans Seem to Recog

Great Issue
Associated Press Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, June 23.—After a
contest lasting throughout the day the
senate completed the paragraphs of the
wool schedule relating to raw wool and
advanced Into the features relating to
the manufactured woolen goods. The
day was devoted largely to a discussion
of the effect of the tariff rates on the
price of wool and the speeches were on
technical lines in the main.
At one point Hoar diverted the discus
sion by a reference to William J. Bryan's
opposition to the tariff. This brought
Senators Mantle. Allen and Stewart to
the defense of Mr. Bryan.
Teller was drawn Into the controversy
and In a few remarks warned his former
Republican associates that their hopes
of prosperity from this bill would be
blasted. Quay made a strong effort to
have the house ad valorem rates on
third-class wool adopted, but he wasde
feated—l9 to 41.
The committee rates were then agreed
to.vlz., four cents per pound on third
class wool valued at 10 cents or less per
pound and 7 cents per pound on third
class wool valued above 10 cents per
pound. The schedule was completed up
to paragraph 364, relating to cloths, knit
fabrics, etc.
Early In the day Allen of Nebraska,
rising to a question of personal privi
lege, made a sweeping denial of public
charges that William J. Bryan had con
tributed $1500 to the Populist cause in
order to effect fusion.
A tribute to the long and Illustrious
reign of Queen Victoria was the feature
of the opening prayer before the Senate
today by Acting Chaplain Rev. Hugh
Johnson.
"We thank Thee," he Invoked, "for the
demonstrations oC joy, both national and
International, over her Majesty, Queen
Victoria's, completion of a long and illus
trious reign of sixty years. We thank
Thee for the exemplary life and personal
qualities as wife, Queen and mother;
that her court has been pure and her
throne without stain. We thank Thee
for all the achievements of the Anglo-
Saxon race during the auspicious period
of the world's history, In all the avenues
of literature, art and science, for the cor
dial relations between the two great na
tions with one language, literature, laws
civil and religious liberty. May they be
bound together in perpetual bonds of
peace."
Senator Morgan of Alabama Intro
duced a bill to regulate the annexation
of Hawaii to the United States.
Senator Quay moved today to restore
the House rate of 22 per cent ad valorem
on the class of wool valued at 13 cents
or less. The Western Senators combat
ted It.
Quay moved to lay on the table the
amendments of the Finance Committee
to paragraph 357 (wool), the effect being
to restore the House rates; the mo
tion was lost, 19 to 41.
Allen of Nebraska then rose to a
question of personal privilege in connec
tion with the conduct of the last cam
paign. There was much Interest In the
statement, as Allen was chairman of the
Populist national convention. Allen
read a published press dispatch from
Lewiston, Me., saying that Prof. L. C.
Bateman, candidate of the People's
party of Maine for governor last year,
was out In an attack on William J. Bryan
to the effect that Mr. Bryan's gift
of $1500 to the Populist national com
mittee was with the distinct under
standing that no action, against fusion
should be taken by the Populist national
convention. Allen made a sweeping de
nial. He said Mr. Bryan, had deter
mined to divide the royalties on his
books, and in so doing allotted $1500 to
the Populist party. The draft was sent
to Allen, but the chairman of the Pop
ulist national committee (Senator But
ler of North Carolina) declined to ac
cept It. Thereupon, at the suggestion
of Mr. Bryan, Allen Invested the amount
to be used in the interest of bimetallism.
Allen declared that the statement that
any agreement existed as to fusion in
connection with the gift was an "ab
solute and unqualified falsehood."
There had never been, he declared, an
attempt to fuse the parties either na
tionally or locally. Allen also specific
ally denied the statement that Mr.
Bryan forged his (Allen's) name to the
list appended to the letter of notifica
tion. The senator closed with a high
tribute to Mr. Bryan and an arraign
ment of Prof. Bateman.
Butler briefly stated that the offer was
made to him, but he felt Impelled to de
cline it. He knew Mr. Bryan's motive,
but felt that the acceptance might be
open to misconstruction. The offer
had been made, he said, without any
condition, express or implied.
Consideration of the wool schedule
was then resumed. » Paragraph 357, re
lating to third-class wools, was taken
up. There was considerable opposition
to the proposed rates, the debate being
largely on technical lines relating to
grades of wool.
Vest of Missouri pointed out conflicts
between the vie ws of Lawrence and Jus
tice, two wool experts, and asked if these
recognized authorities were so far apart,
how could the laymen be expected to-get
at the truth.
Mantle of Montana criticised some of
the statements of Justice, particularly
.that to the effect that no more than 1 per
ocnt ot the wool grown in thl* country
LOS ANGELES, THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE 24, J897
was carpet wool. Mantle asserted that
one-eighth of every fleece of the com
mon sheep was classed as coarse carpel
wool. He would regard it most equita
ble to levy a specific duty on all carpet
wools without any distinction, as an ad
valorem duty led to undervaluation. The
senator discussed the effect of the Mc-
Kinley wool rates, saying that they did
not accomplish all that had been ex
pected; they did not offset the heavy de
cline caused by business depression.
Mills of Texas said It was incompre
hensible to him why wool men demand
ed higher duties In the face of experience
that the price of wool could not be
raised by the tariff, any more than the
price of cotton could be Increased by a
duty. The price of wool had been fail
ing constantly for forty years, In spite
of tariff rates. He quoted statistics
showing that wool had fallen after the
imposition of the McKinley rates and
had risen after the Wilson provisions for
free wool. This was proof incontestible.
he declared, that tariff duties could not
affect the price of wool.
At one point in Mills' remarks Mantle
Interjected the remark: "Generally
speaking, the senator will not question
that the Imposition of a duty has raised
the price to the wool grower?"
"I have never been able to discover It,"
answered Mills.
Mantle asserted that this general ben
efit to the wool grower was Incontesti
ble, certainly as to the Montana grow
ers, and he believed it was so generally.
Mills maintained that he was speak
ing from tables of prices, which con
stituted a record not to be impeached
under the rules of evidence by genera!
opinions.
Carter of Montana said It was a fact
beyond dispute that during the last year
the wool ■growers of Montana were re
ceiving 6 cents per pound, while under
the McKinley law they were receiving
14 cents.
"And the difference between 6 cents
and 14 cents is the difference between
destruction and prosperity," declared
Carter. When Mills quoted certain low
rates in Montana wools under the Mc-
Kinley law Carter responded that these
were quoted at a time when the passage
of the Wil9on bill was anticipated,
serving to send down the prices.
Gray of Delaware declared that It was
time for a revolt against the demands
o£ the Wool Growers' association.
"If those who oppose these high du
ties on wool are to be considered ene
mies," said he, "they must take their
position as enemies, and they will not be
lacking in resources to make their op
position felt."
This extra session was called for tho
primary purpose of framing a law giv
ing adequate revenue, and it was Infa
mous, he asserted, that this revenue
measure could not pass until a toll was
levied upon the great mass of poor peo
ple of the country, the wearers of cloth
ing and users of blankets, in order to
Increase the profits of the wool growers.
Quay moved to disagree to the com
mittee amendments to paragraph 357.
The effect of Quay's motion would be
to go back to the house rate of 32 per cent
ad' valorem.
Hoar pointed out that there was not
a majority of the senate favorable to
that doctrine of protection supported
by the Republican party. It became
necessary, therefore, to secure the co-<
operation of those who had supported a
man for the presidency who, if elected,
was pledged to veto a tariff bill.
Mantle replied that he had never
known that the silver candidate for the
presidency was pledged to veto a tariff
bill.
Hoar said Mr. Bryan's recordj in the
house of representatives would throw
some light on the subject.
"He was supported by nearly all the
free traders In the country," added
Hoar, "and If the party did not pledge
him, he pledged) the party."
Allen said the statement of Hoar as
to the silver candidate for the presidency
should not go unchallenged. There was
nothing in what Mr. Bryan had said jus
tifying an assertion that he would have
vetoed a tariff bill. If It had been a bill
of confiscation, doubtless he would have
vetoed it.
Hoar brought forward copies of the
record, showing Mr. Bryan's course on
the tariff. He voted in the house to put
wool on the free list; he had carried out
in triumph Wilson, who hadi denounced
protection as robbery; he had himself
denounced protection as robbery.
"I have a good deal of respect for Mr.
Bryan," continued Hoar. "His charac
ter has impressed me very favorably,
and I have never joined In criticism upon
him, but It he would' not veto a tariff
bill after such utterances I would not
have much respect for him."
Stewart thought these criticisms of
Mr. Bryan were most unfair, for, said
the senator, an examination of Mr. Mc-
Kinley's record would show him to have
voted for free and unlimited coinage of
• silver.
Stewart stated that during the consid
eration of the Bland-Allison act, McKin
ley had voted at every stage "with the
most radical silver men." Even as late
as 1890 McKinley had made a speech at
Toledo denouncing Cleveland for dis
criminating between the metals.
Stewart caused a laugh as he closed
by saying, very earnestly, that "it was
no use criticising Mr. Bryan, as he's go
ing to be the next president."
The vote was then taken on Quay's
motion to table the committee amend
ments to paragraph 357, and it was re
jected—l 9to 41. The vote in detail is as
follows:
Yeas—Bacon, Chilton, Cockrell, Gor
man, Jones of Arkansas, Kenney, Mal
lory, Mills, Mitchell, Morgan, Murphy,
Pascoe, Penrose, Pettus, Quay, Smith,
Turple, Vest, Walthall. Total 19.
Nays—Allen, Allison, Burrows, But
ler, Carter, Chandler, Clark, Davis, De
boe, Fairbanks, Foraker, Frye, Gal
linger, Gear, Hale, Hansbrough, Heit

Piatt of New York. Proctor, Rawlins,
Roach, Sewell, Shoup, Spooner, Stewart,
Teller, Thurston, Tillman, Turner, War
ren, Wellington, Wetmore, White, Wil
son. Total 41.
Teller reverted to the statement con
cerning Bryan The latter's vote for
free wool would not justify the asser
tion of the Massachusetts senator that
Bryan would- veto a tariff bill, as he
might approve it as a revenue measure.
After the amendments by Quay and
Mantle had been rejected, the para
graph was agreed to as reported, name
ly, 4 cents per pound on third class wool
worth 10 cents a pound or less.
Paragraph 3SB was also agreed to as

i
Senator Morgan Introduces a Bill
Which Requires Only a Major
ity Vote to Pass
Associated Press Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, June 23—The Ha
waiian annexation treaty formed the
principal topic of consideration by the
senate committee on foreign relations
at Its brief session today. The treaty
and accompanying papers were read, and
referred to a sub-committee consisting
of Senators Foraker, Davis and Morgan,
with instructions to Investigate the en
tire question and report to the full com
mittee. The complexion of the commit
tee Is believed to be eight for ratification
and three against It. There Is a possi
bility that the number of those in favor
may be increased to nine.
REPLY READY
WASHINGTON, June 23.—The state
department has practically completed
its reply to the Japanese protest against
the Hawaiian annexation treaty, but
has not yet delivered it. The reply is
understood to be dignified in tone, a
strong legal defense of our position,
which, without in any sense abating our
claims, does not disdain to support them
by much citation of precedent and inter
national law.
The protest Is in such definite terms,
and is directed so squarely at the tran
saction, as to cause the committee to
feel that the entire matter should be
handled with the utmost clrcumeipeetiom
as the only way In which complications
of a serious nature can be avoided.
While there Is no disposition on the part'
of the majority of the committee to
weaken In Its support of the treaty,
there Is a general feeling that the friend
ly relations which have always existed
between Japan and the United States
call for great deliberation and especial
care In, proceeding In the matter. Hence
the appointment of the subcommittee to
consider all the details, the decision to
keep the proceedings of the committee
from the public, and the probability
that the committee may not be able to
report during the present session of
congress.
MORGAN'S BILL
WASHINGTON, June 23.—Senator
Morgan today introduced a bill for the
annexation of the Hawaiian islands.
The bill provides that the islands shall
become a territory of the United' States
in accordance with the terms of the re
cently negotiated treaty. The date set
for the extension of the laws of this
country over the islands is the fourth of
March, 1898, but It is specifically pro
vided that they may be put in force at
an earlier day if congress directs. It is
also directed that the five commission
ers provided for by the treaty make the
recommendations to congress in mat
ters pertaining to Hawaii, and shall be
confirmed by the senate. The bill ap
propriates a million dollars for the ex
ecution of its provisions. Out of this
sum the interest on the Hawaiian debt is
to be paid, butprovision for the payment
of the principal of this debt is deferred.
"The treaty," said Senator Morgan,"
"can be ratified In this form by a ma
jority vote In each of the two houses,
thus avoiding the necessity for securing
two-thirds of the senate, as would be re
quired If the matter should be passed
upon by that body alone."
HELLO SYSTEMS
The Detroit Company Wants No
Litigation
DETROIT, Mich., June 23.—Before the
convention of owners of Independent
telephone systems resumed Its sessions
today the Detroit Telephone company,
the largest organization represented,
announced that it would not unite with
the newly organized Independent Tele
phone Association, of Ameirca. Presi
dent Holmes of that company says his
people did not propose to join any or
ganization whose object is litigation
with the Bell company.
The constitution was under discus
sion at the morning session of the con
vention.
When the question rose of adoption of
the constiution as a whole the Detroit
delegates objected to the large member
ship assessments, and the possible ap
plication of. the funds to the carrying on
of litigation against the Bell company.
The prevailing sentiment was, how
ever, that the necessary money should
be on hand to defend suits if such are
brought, and the constitution went
through as amended.
A Common Error
RED BLUFF, June 23 —A young man
named Flood was shot and instantly
killed at Newville this morning, while
hunting with a companion named Car
rington. From a telephone message re
ceived it seems that the two had gone
into the hills on the Glenn county side,
and separated in the woods. Flood had
on a red shirt and Carrlngton seeing
him In the brush, mistook him for a deer
and fired, with fatal results. Both
young men are residents of Newville.
The coroner's inquest will be held to
morrow.
Tons of Tea
SAN FRANCISCO, June 23.—The
steamship Glenshleld, one of the.flnest
on the Chinese coast, arrived here today
with 4700 tons of tea, of which 2700 tons
will be sent overland. This lathe largest
consignment of tea which has been re
ceived here tor many years.

LONDON, June 23.—This day was ona
of the most fatiguing of the week for the
queen, the official program demanding
the reception of several distinguished
bodies of official personages, andi
of addresses at Slough, Eton and Wind
sor. The chief event of the day and one
of the most Interesting of the entire
week was the presentation to the queeni
of congratulatory addresses by both,
houses of parliament, which occurred mt
Buckingham palace this morning.
The queen was wheeled into the ball
room by an Indian attendant. She wore
a black beaded dress, a black and whlta
striped skirt and a widow's cap and car
ried a white fan and a lorgnette. Her
majesty also wore the ribbon of tha
Order of the Garter. The scene wa»
magnificent. The uniforms, dress, or
ders and blazing Jewels showed up finely
In the sunlight which found its, way
through the windows. The lord cham
berlain, the earl of Lathom, fiTst es
corted the lord chancellor, Lord Salis
bury, who was gorgeously robed, tha
members of the house of lords following
him. The lord chancellor then knelt be
fore the queen and read the address of
the house of lords, at the end of which
she bowed and thanked their lordships,
and the peers retired in a body.
The lord chamberlain immediately left
the room and returning usnered lnito her
majesty's presence the members of tha
house of commons. The latter advanced
between two lines of gentlemen at arms,
brilliantly uniformed.
The commoners were headed by Speak
er Gully, who stood while he read to her
majesty the address from the house of
commons. At the conclusion of tha
reading the queen bowed and the com
moners retired in a body.
Both addresses are officially described
as a humble expression of duty and
wishes for a long life for her majesty.
While waiting for the arrival of tha
mayors the queen chatted with tho
Prince of Wales and the princesses.
Over four hundred mayors and pro
vosts, chairmen of county councils and
sheriffs filed past the queen, who bowed
and smiled as each of the loyal officials
passed. The sheriffs were all in gor
geous scarlet and the mayors' all wore
the full insignia of their office, including
the strange robes and golden chains, etc.
The mayors were headed by the lord
mayor of London, Sir George Faudel
Phillips, who also wore the full robes
and complete insignia of his office.
Nearly half a century has passed sinca
the House of Commons visited the sov
ereign in a body, the last occasion being
the presentation ot an address acknowl
edging the reception of) the Queen's mes
sage announcing the declaration of war
against Russia, and not since the early
forties, when addresses were made con
gratulating the Queen on the failure of
attempts at assassination, has she re
ceived the two houses together. There
were brief formalities at Westminster
today, the two houses meeting, and l the
formal announcement being made by
Lord Salisbury in the House of Lords
and Mr. Balfour In the House of Com
mons, that the Queen would be pleased'
to receive the two houses, they proceed
ed in stately procession to the palace.
The queen left the palace soon after
4:30 today, returning to the Paddlngtou
railroad station by the route followed on
her arrival andi in smi-state. Her maj
esty was greeted with the same enthu
siasm. It was a pretty sight on Consti
tution hill, near the palace, where in the
grand stands used' to view the proces
sion yesterday, 10,000 children from the
board schools, Church of England, Wes
ieyan, Catholic and Jewish schools,were
inspected by her majesty. On the ar
rival of the queen the children joined in
singing tho national anthem, led by a
band, with a heartiness and freshness
never surpassed.
The marquis of Londonderry, as chair
man, presented, her majesty an address
on behalf of the school board. The bish
op of London and others did the same
on behalf of ether school bodies. Among
the members of committees present were
Cardinal Vaughan and Baron Roths
child. There was a great burst of cheer
ing as the queen left. Perfect weather
prevailed.
A NOTABLE COINCIDENCE
NEW YORK, June 23.—The Tribune's
London dispatch describing the Jubilee
parade says: By a notable coincidence,
through tho glittering length of the cav
alcade only two figures were plainly
dressed in black. One was the Queen
of England, Empress of India, the other
the special Ambassador of the United
States, Whitelaw Reid.
Among the most beautiful Princesses'
were the Grand Duchess Serge of Rus
sia, the Princess of Naples, the Grand
Duchess of Hesse, Princess Charles of
Denmark and Princess Franz Josef of
Battenburg.
Save for the affectionate homage pop
ularly paid to the Queen, the colonial
troopers and the imperial service troops
from India, carried off the honors of tha
day.
By an arrangement which some, Jeal
ous for the claims of the colonial troops,
cavilled at, they were placed in the van
guard, apart from the royal procession.
This secured for them the advantage of
coming upon the scene before eyes were
weary watching the ever-varying length
or voices had grown hoarse with cheer
ing. One other advantage the colonials
had was that they were personally led
