WASITIKOTOK , Aug. 27. The financial do
nate Is closed and the line of battle is now
being sharply drawn for the decisive contest
that will take place In the house of repre
sentatives tomorrow. The leaders of both
sides have exerted every effort to have their
men all here , and It Isoxpcctcd that the first
roll call will find almost every member of
the house pre.sent nnd voting. There Is ap
parently no Inclination on the part of any of
the representatives to doilgolbo Issue , and
ns most of them have had an opportunity to
explain on the floor their reasons
"for action , It Is expected the
record will show n full vote on
every proposition. The result of
Iho successive roll calls of tomorrow Is no
longer a inaHnr of doubt to any ono familiar
with the situation. The frco colnugO'blll to
bo offered by Mr. Bland as a substitute for
the repealing bill of Mr. Wilson , will bo de
feated. The exact vote Is uncertain , ns the
fealty of certain members to the measure de
pends much on the ratio that receives the
largest support in the house. It was the
impression two weeks ago that the largest
ratio to be voted upon 20 to 1 would bo the
most , popular , ns the Impression nt that tune
was gentr.il that n revision of the ratio of
colnago would bo necessary if the frco coin-
ngo men could hope for a victory in the
light of the recent depression in silver.
Favor thn Old Itiitlo.
This impression received a check n week
ngo , however , in the announcement of Jerry
Simpson that the populist members would
tolerate no departure from the existing ratio
and would leave the frco coinage men in
event of a rnllnro to adopt the old ratio of 10
to 1. This unnouncoincnt at . .onco . had Its
effect on the sentiment tiint had been con
stantly crowing up to that time , for immedi
ately it dozen or more of the oldest free
colnngo men announced that they would sup
port no ratio but that of 10 to 1. Now there
seems to bo no doubt that Instead of the
highest ratio , 20 to 1. being the most popular ,
the old ratio of 10 to \ will reeelyo thu greatest
vote and bo the only one seriously consid
ered. But. whatever may bo the result of
the vote on the separate ratios , tbo Blnnd
bill will be rejected ns a substitute for the
Wilson bill , and the majority for rejection
will not bo less than forty. After the rojec-
.tlon of the niand bill nnd uftur the question
hns resolved Itself into the simple ono ot the
rcpenl of the purchasing clause of the Slier-
man law. the Wilson bill will be passed by it
majority of not less than sixty. These
figures nro conservative , and will bo borne
cwt by tomorrow's developments if , indued ,
the majority for the Wilson bill bo not larger
than the figures given.
When It UotH to tlm Semite.
Immediately after the passage of the Wil
son bill It will bu reported to the senate , and
If the usual course Isimrsued will bo referred
to the committee on finance of that body. It
is expected that the policy of the senate will
be to let tbo bill slumber there , while all the
efforts of the upper chamber are directed to
securing the adoption of the repealing bill
now pending In Unit body. The reason for
this lsthat the repealing bill reported by the
scnalo committee on finance is believed
to bo superior to the house bill , bo-
canso It contains the declaration orig
inated by Senator Hill , pledging thu
government to the policy of bimetallism.
It Is quite certain no bill will pass thosonato
without n declaration endorsing the policy
of bimetallism , und as no such declaration Is
explicitly made In the Wilson bill , the pro
gram will bo to pass the senate bill and send
It to tbo house for the concurrcnco of the
latter body. Of course the effect of this will
bo to revho tbo whole question in the house ,
but ft is not thought any considerable time
will bo consumed by the house In passing
upon the question a second time , as most of
tbo members have already hud full oppor
tunity to be heard and will have placed
themselves upon record by their votes on
tbo several distinct propositions and ratios ,

The ways and means committee will meet
Tuesday , when a course of procedure will
probably bo decided on , Including such
matters as tbo appropriate date when n
tariff bill shall bo reported , whether the
committee'will give hearings to interested
persons or not , and other details relating to
the work with which It la charged. Chair
man Wilson is reported to have prepared n ,
bill covering the subject of tariff revision In
a general way which ho will submit to the
committee.
On the same day the committee on bank
ing and currency will meet with tbo expec
tation of concluding a report on the bill of
Thomas M. Johnson , providing for the exchange -
change of national bonds for currency at the
demand of the holder. The committee , It Is
believed , will favorably report the bill , with
an amendment tntenJcd to protect the gold
of the treasury from raids by these who re
ceive currency for their bonds. It may
also take up the question ot repealing the 10
percent on the circulation of state banks.
On this Chairman Springer Is quoted as sav
ing ! "I don't think the committee will
report a bill In favor of a ropcalof the tax. I
don't bcllovo in going back to the days of
the old state banking system and of being
compelled to have forty-four different kinds
of currency In this country. The removal of
the tax upon state banks and the re-cstab-
Hshment of the old system would bo an ob
struction to business. I am against it and I
do not think such a bill can pass. I favor a
state currency , good alike in all 'stales , ac
cepted without question everywhere , ono
familiar to the people and printed upon such
paper that counterfeits can bo readily de
tected. Any other currency Is an obstruc
tion to business and I shall oppose it. "
Ito MUM tie's CHIC.
In the senate the week will probably begin
with the Mnntlo case in the foreground.
There is an intimation that there bus been u
change In the views of some senators who
voted against Mr. Mantle's claims and some
of His friends are confident the decision will
bo reversed.
Senator Wolcott announced his intention
of addressing the scuato Wednesday on tbo
subject of silver.
The national bank currency bill is to betaken
taken up and pushed as fust as possible. It
may bo a vote can bo reached on the Cock-
rcll amendment relating to the deposit of
bonds in the treasury early in the week , but
there still remains the "formidable Butler
amendment repealing the state bank tax. If
this threatens to take an undue time , It is
probable the bill will bo sidetracked In order
to allow Air. Voorhees to forward discussion
and action upon the repeal bill.This result
may be hastened If the present plan of the
silver men takes slmpo. namely , to try nnd
attach to the bank bill an amendment pro
viding for thu free coinage of silver ,
ADMISSION OF NKW .MEXICO.
i Joseph Will Jlnke Strenuoui Ef
forts to Accomplish that Hnd.
WASHINGTON , Adg. 27. Delegate Joseph of
New Mexico is preparing to raako an at
tempt to secure the admission of New Mexico
ice us a state this session , and as both
houses of congress are democratic , ho has
sanguine bones of success. Ho has prepared
a bill , which ho will present during the
course of the present week , or at the first
opportunity : This bill provides nn enabling
act for the people of the territory of Now
Mexico , by the terms of which a constitu-
tlo.nal convention will be held In the terri
tory und the constitution submitted
to the people. All persons who
have resided within the limits of the
proposed state for sixty days , und are other
wise qualified by tbo laws of the territory to
vote for the ' representatives to ( ho legislative
assemblages' thereof , are authorized to vote
for delegates to form the convention.
An apportionment of delegates to the con
vention Is made by the bill in strict accord
ance with the population of the territory as
shown by the last census. The government
Is authorized to order the election on the
first Tuesday after the first Monday in No
vember , 18SM. The number of delegates In
the territory is to bo seventy-five. The con
stitutional convention will assemble at the
capitol on the first Monday of December ,
18U4 , nnd when assembled it shall adout the
constitution of the United States and pro
ceed to the formation of n state constitution. ,
The bill especially provides that in all the
public schools thu ICnglUh language shall bo
taught. The constitution shall bo submitted
to the people for their ratification or re-
jectlcn at an election to bo held in said ter
ritory on the first Tuesday after the first
Monday In April , 181)3. ) If a majority of the
votes cast shall bo for the constitution , the
government of the territory shall certify
the result to the president of the United
States , who shall then Issue his procluma
tion announcing tlio result of the election
and the state of New Mexico shall then be
deemed admitted Into the union.
I'ropiirod to Sleet Opposition ,
Delegate Joseph Is fully prepared to meat
the arguments urged against the admission
of New Mexico on account of the largo pro
portion of Mexican speaking population. Ho
says : "Can it bo snid a native of Now
Mexico who renounced his allegiance to the
republic ? of Mexico over forty years ago has
less interest in tlio government of the United
States , less devotion to republican princi
ples or loss fitness for American citizenship
than a subject of an European kingdom who
lias within u few years loft tils nutivo home !
"Seventeen years after the territory became -
came a part of the United States , Now Mex
ice was called upon to furnish soldiers to defend -
fend the union. Tliero was no hesitation In
responding to the demand. New Moxk-o
gave 8,000 soldiers to the union during the
late war. being wore than was furnished by
all the other oxUtlng territories combined i
Including the present states of Nebraska ,
Nevada , Colo'rado , Washington , the Da-
kotus , Montana. Idaho and Wyoming. ln
"These troops were in greater part com
manded by persons of Spanish descent , and
the ranks were filled by the same raeo , but
although only seventeen years citizens of
the country , the people of the territory did
not hesitate to devote themselves to the
country as readily ns if born under its flag ,
Numerous wealthy citizens voluntarily
loaned money to the government at the out ;

WASHINGTON BCIIBAU OF THE I3EE,1 ,
Bin FotniTttnxTii STiiur.r. ; V
WASHINGTON , AUg . 27. J
It now seems certain that the house will
pass the bill unconditionally repealing the
silver purchasing law before it adjourns to
morrow , and that the senate would pass n
llko measure ) if a direct vote could bo secured
upon It. There nro few In Washington
tonight but who acknowledge defeat It the
friends of unconditional repeal in the senate
can got a direct vote. It is now known to "a
dcail certainty" that If the proposition to
vote for or against unconditional repeal ,
with nothing else in vlew.Vcould uonio before
the house It would have a decided
majority. There are now fo.ur or
flvo senators who have been ( classed
all along as free coinage advocates who sav
they will support unconditional repeal If all
other proposals nro voted down ; that rather
than vote against It , when It stands nlone ,
they will vote for It. They give uncon
ditional repeal a safe majority. Senators
Teller , Stewart , Vest , Cockrcll , Butler ,
Morgan and other frco colnago men ac
knowledge that their only hope now lies In
the rules , which make it posslolo for them
to defeat a voto. They mean to talk the bill
to death and wo ir out the ropcallsts. us
they did the election bill of two years or
more ago. A change of the rules so as to
bring the silver olll to n vote suoras linpossl
bio , as there Is no process of ending a debate ,
upon a rule which would secure closure , oven
upon a single measure. The chances seem
about even that a direct vote cannot bo se-
cu red upon unconditional repeal in the sen
ate , and two to ono that a compromise will
be effected whereby another silver law will
take the place of tbo present one.
Anxious Ahoilt the Turin .
There is ono subject which overslaughs
all others at the present time in commercial
circles. It oven ranks the financial problem
before congress. It is the tariff. Manu
facturers and business men , as well ns the
farmers , are anxious to know what kind of
a tariff bill the democratic congress and <
democratic administration will finally put
into law and when it will go Into effect.
There is not a man In congress , bo ho a
high protectionist or a frco trader , but that
acknowledges frankly und openly the im
portance of informing the country as to
what kind of a tariff bill is to bo adopted and
when it will take effect. It is not so much
the specific items winch are to bo affected
by the now tariff bill as ills the time when
those who are to bo affected must adjust
themselves to the now conditions. Tin : UIE
correspondent spent the greater part of the
past week making Inquiry of the leading
partisans in congress and trying to get the
position of the administration upon the
tariff.
The first and most Important fact ascer
tained in this research for information is
that tho'tarilT bill which will become alav / -
some time next year will be very moderate
in character. Chairman Voorhces of the
senate committee on finance , Messrs. Gor
man , McPhcrson nnd other democratic lead
ers of the upper branch of congress , ns well
us Chairman Wilson of the committee on
ways and means , Mr. Springer , its late
chairman , Mr. McMillin , Mr. Bynum and
other leaders in the majority of the lower
brunch of congress , all say Unit , owing to
the construction of the democratic party in
congress nnd the solid republican phalanx
opposed to radical tariff reform , it
will bo a physical impossibility to pass any
bill which makes a serious cut Into manu
factured articles ; that tbo'measure must
conlino itself almost wholly to enlarging the
free list.
Will Ho Tut oil tlio Frow LUt.
The principal items which now pay duty
and are to go upon the frco list nro wool ,
iron ore , coal , wood and salt. Thor'o may bo
some reductions of duty upon the cheaper
crrtidcs of woolen and hcmp.and linen fabrics.
There will be a good many articles taken
from the dutiable and tiansferred to tha
free list In the chemical schedule. So far as
implements and tools of all kinds , manufac
tured steel and iron of the hotter grades ,
wares from metals and glass are concerned ,
the manufacturers and dealers in these
articles can rest assured nothing will bo
done to materially affect their business ,
unless it is to give them free raw materials
to work upon.
One of the republican members of the sen
ate committee on finance , who had much to
do with the preparation of the MuICinlcy
bill , assures your correspondent , after a full 1
conference with the republican senators and
these leaders upon the democratic side who
will control the revision of the tariff bill 1
when It comes from the house , that , while
they would If they could , the democrats can
not possibly pass any tariil bill which will *
depress the manufacturing interests of this
country. Ho says that if ho wcro manufac '
turing any of the leading articles ho would
not , knowing what ho docs , hesitate n
moment to push his business right ahead on
its present lines , as It cannot be Injured by
the tariff law. Another
now prominent ro-
puultcan member of the sonata committee on ,
finance says that hols answering all lottersof
Inquiry from manufacturers by saying there
ncc'cl bo no alarming niqx'ehunsion as to tlio
outcome of democratic work at tariff re
vision , as vicious , malicious or . general 1
destructive legislation cannot got through 1s 1i
thOEcnato. Ho says that If the democrats
had a majority of ten or twelve in the senate i-
ate , instead of only four or live as new , they ii
would pass a bill framed on free trade lines i ,
providing for just enough revenue to moot
government expenses , and if thay could itit
advance adopt tin income tax wo would have
almost absolute free trade ; but every repub
lican In the senate will stand solidly against
democratic tariff revision , und under the
present rules of the senate thti largo body of
republicans can out-talk and filibuster , Ifo
death almost any feature of a bill.
Control the Situation ,
Besides this there are four or flvo senators
on the democratic eldo Tvhosc political fu
ture would bo ruined If they old not secure
protection for certain industries in their
states , These Elates nra overwhelmingly
democratic , and tlio products wliloh the
democrats are determined to protect uro
produced in no republican state , so that the
ilenfoeratlo senators directly interested are
of necessity forced to go to tbo republican
side and treat for peace and co-operation.
This condition of circumstances places the
republican minority in the scimto in prac-
tful control of the situation. It is not to bo
supposed that they will rocado In any direc
tion 10 as to give the democrats opportunity
to carry out their pledges inado in party
platforms.
It Is generally conceded that the now tariff
law will not uro into effect before July , 1805 ,
or October of that year. There are many
prominent democrats who advocate a date ,
when the naw tariff law shall take effect , not
earlier teen January 1,1SOO.

LONDON , Aug. 27. The Times this morn-
ing , in the course of a long leader on the
dismal I agricultural prospects of Great
Britain , says foreign competition depresses
the prices of cattle and corn. The
import i of animals and meats , it says , will
swamp the markets this year. Great Britain
will bo more than over dependent on
foreign Jt J supplies and will require at least 28-
000,000 quarters of wheat from abroad.
France , it adds , must timuort more than
twice as much as slio usually docs. As to
Germany , that country has already began to
draw I on America for supplies. When na
tions thus old against daeh other , the article
says , there is a fair chauco , that prices will
advance.

Went CITY , Kan. , AugJ27. Late yesterday
afternoon several of the Central Coal and
Colco company's negroes came to town to
transact some business nt the company store.
Immediately a crowd of sixty or seventy
strikers gathered with guns on Main street ,
near Smith's livery stable , waiting for the
negroes to come out of the store , intending
10 attack them.
A Frenchman inho crowd accidentally
discharged his gun. Four men wore wounded
by the scattering shot.

in his bojy.
David Nochtschott , superintendent of the
Cherokee Zinc company , received several

After the accident happened it was over
an hour before any news of it reached any
outside point. It came by a messenger , who
walked Into Long Island City.
Tbo railroad company immediately dis
patched a relief train with all the physi
cians in the city. They found an appalling
state of affairs. The Manhattan Beach train
had been standing In the block to allow an
other train ahead getting at a safe distance.
The Ilockaway Beach train came dashing
along behind , ran Into the same block and
crashed Into the roar end of the Manhattan
Beach train , Both wore crowded with ex
cursionists.
There wore live cars In the Manhattan
Beach train , all of them open cars. The
Ilockaway tr.iln plunged and ploughed its
way completely through the two roar cars
and partly wrecked the third. Passengers
In the thrco cars were maimed and mangled
horribly and their shrieks of terror and pain
made ono sick with dread. The Ilockaway
engine was wrecked , the timbers of tha
wrccicod cars sticking In it. Upon the tim
bers wore human beings Impaledsomo dead ,
and others gasping- their lust breath. High
up on the top lay the dead body of u man yet
unidentified , On ono of the ears WUB im
paled the body of Mrs. Uiotzcl. Upon another -
other wa the body of Sydney Wdnstcln.

The scene wus Indescribably horrible.
The dead and wounded were massed among
the wreckage , besides those ujton and beyond
the tracks. Everything wus spattered with
blood nf the dead and wounded , and the
cries nf the latter arose above the hissing ot
steam and the culls of the frantto trainmen.
As fast as the wounded could bo taken from
the wreck , they wcro carried to the relief
train and cared for. The doctors on board
worked swiftly but well , while
other medical men wcro out In the
wreck applying restoratlres and making
hurried dressings of wounds to tustuin the
sufferers until they could bo put In the relief
train for mory careful treatment.
Huberman's tile factory , which stands
close to the tracks at the sccno of the acci
dent , was converted Into a temporary hospi
tal and some of the dead and injured wcro
carried In there. All the wounded had been
placed on the relief train and taken to Long
Island City thli morning. Seventeen of
them were tuken to the hospital in that city ,
of whom two died upon the way , Oucar
Oletzcl and Thomas Finn , a brukotnan on
