In the senate today Uio bad feeling which has cropped out occassloiKilly burst forth quite unexpect edly. Party llncfc arc apparently totally dis regarded In the * present contest and sec tional divisions seem to furnish the line of demarkatlon. Mr. Teller , republican , of Colorado , will oecuny the floor tomorrow and ho today announced that ho would speak as long ns he thought the senate ould care to sit on Saturday. When the resolution of Mr. Wolcott , call ing for information ns to the amount paid In bounties on maple sugar , was laid before the senate that senator said that on yesterday he had declined to accept the suggestion of Mr. Galllngor , republican , of Now Hump- a'llro , to enlarge the scope of the resolution so as to Include all sugars. Ho had modified the resolution to comprehend the suggestion of Mr. Galllngcrnnd asked Its adoption. The resolution was agreed to. 1'nulkiicr'H Doilra Tor Hllror. At 12:45 : the repeal bill was taken up nnd Mr. Faulkner , democrat , of West Virginia addressed tbo senate. Ho said ho would present an amendment for thocoiungo of $ 'JM)0,000 ( ) In silver per month until $800- 000,000 was In circulation. Ho predicted > 0.000,00 < ) this fiscal year. Mr. Turplo , democrat , of Indiana , said thii issue hero was not whether the United States should not further coin nnd use Eilvcr ns money , but the question was whether the purchase of silver for coinage purposes should bo continued. The act of purchase was vice in the scheme. It placed upon silver coin the brand ofpbondagc. It was unsound , dishonest money , degraded by law. Mr. .Jones , democrat , of Arkansas , said ho did not believe the present condition of tne country was brought about by the Sher man act , nnd It would pass away without the repeal of that act. On I he contrary , thu limited coinage of silver had acted as a measure of rollof in the financial stringency that the stringency was caused by the wealthy few , and Ft remained io bo seen whether the ropicsentativcs of 05,000,000 free people would submit to their Insolent domination. Ho stood ready , ho said , to re peal the whole of the Sherman act , but ho would not , in pretended compliance with the Chicago platform , which demanded the re peal of the entire law , vote to repeal the only good feature of the law , leaving Its ininultic.s In full forco. That would be amore moro cowardly makeshift than the Sherman Inw , nnd It would bo as great u fraud as was the action of 1373. I'oiMlstrnl Vourhooi. It was now 8:80 : o'clock and Mr. Voorhecs said ho 'rtiiild not ask nn unreasonable ses sion , but ho thought half past . ' < an unreason able hour toaujourn. If there were no sena tors who desired to spcaic ho would have to ask a votoi'v Mr. Halo , republican , of Maine , hoped that Air. Voorliccs , If ho could control the situation , would not consent to nn adjourn ment. The senators had only been in ses sion thrco hours and a half. The senator from Indiana him given up the 11 o'clock proposition and also-found himself In danger of losing ho two morning hours. Ho called his ( Voorhces' ) attention to the fact that ho was cut down to n very slender thread of time to bo consumed by spccchmaking. The republicans had refrained from taking up time by answering speeches made on the other side , with the exception of Mr. Sher man , the veteran leader upon financial measures , and perhaps ono or two others who were in favor of repeal. They had sat silently In their scats , ready to vote at all times and they wcro now ready , willing and desirous of voting. It was apparent that Senator Voorhces had not received the remarks of Mr. Halo in good feeling. Ho rose , and In thunderous tones said : "Tho zonlof the senator fiom ' Maine Jor'thc repeal of the Sherman act and his deslrn to assist the senator from Indiana Is deeply appreciated. It would bo more so , however , if in these six weeks ho had boon in his seat moro than ono week. I rtesiro . n.o say to him , and to all concerned , that the senator from Indiana expects to discharge his duty as ho sees it , and not according ro.o the desires of the. senator from Maine ) .or that sldo of thu chamber , " WiiultlNut Vlohl the floor. Mr. Halo rose , out the senator from Indl- nni ; declined to yield. Ho continued : "Tho senator from Malno has taken a monopoly of tho.crltlnlsm of my notion. Ho has taken ofn monopoly of direction , of lecturing nnd of dictation nnd of nagging. The whole 3fn try icuottsthnt tlio senator from Indiana occupies u trying position , with men of long- tried friendship on this sldo of the chamber not concurring with erm him in his views ana m his course. The result Is that 1 nm doing "K what wo will all bo required to say when wo como " to sum up life's result the best wo can. Air. Halo replied thht the statement that ho had been absent from the senate was inns error , excepting for ono week , when it was understood that nothing was to bo done. Ho said his suggestions were only In the intor- eit of helping the senator from Indiana. "I have hud quite u surfeit of that kind of help from that source , " replied Mr , Veer hecs , with bitterness , " 1 do not wish , " continued Mr. Ilnlo , "to ' make Iho position of tha chairman of the commlttco on finniico uncomfortable , and that senator snould not bo so sensitive about helping the republican sU " " "Will the senator , " said Mr. Voorheos. "please - fct-lect some other subject for discus 13- sion the next time ho takes the lloor besides my management of this bill , unless ho wants to nssull mol" Mr Halo disclaimed any Intention of ro- fieoting upon thu bcnator from Indiana said the , nnd latter was doing all ho could tend Bccuro the passage of the bill faithfully and * Mr. Voorhecs said ho could not return that compliment to the senator from Maine , ho- - cause If ho were doing tlio best ho could bubo would take his scat. [ Laughter , ] A Wiiril Io ho I'ulillr. Continuing , he said ho wanted to say a word to the public , Anxious us ha was to press the matter to a vote ho had , In defer- cnco to the wishes ; of men in whom ho had hud confidence all his llfo , withdrawn a res- oKuloii for the earlier meeting of the senate which ho would have been glad lo have adopted. There was consolation in the fact that the publio buslncsf.pf thu country was discounting Uio imHiHgu of the bill. "Tho house bus passed the bill , It Is known that the senate will pass u. nis Mr. Voor- liccB said with great earnestness. ) In a little while It will bo behind us instead of before us. " Senator Dubols. jepubliciin , of Idaho , said that Mr , Halo did not represent all the ro publicans. It seemed difficult for Mr , Hiilo to realize the fact that the republicans had lost roiiuol of tha senate. Mr. Teller explained why it was that ho preferred to proceed tomorrow Instead I of today , and that he had never known so Im portant u iiionburo to have been presml ImU lupldlynstho repeal bill had been. 'Ihere had been no unnecessary delay. So fur as ho ( Mr. lollor ) rvas concerned , ho intended to debate thU mipailon until ho thoroughly untlslicd himself that ho Imil discharged his duty to his ronstltulents , that huhasdU- charged his duty to the people of the United .States , that he hud dlst-haiccd his duty to Iho iinboin millions who wcro to nufloriftho pro | > oscd pernicious legislation were enacted line luw. Aldrlch , reimbllain.of lUioao Islam ) , spoke of the letfUlution of ibftj in reference to tbo position taken by the senator from Nevada ( Mr. Stewart ) when thftt legislation was pending. That senator had denounced the act of 187ft as an Infamous crime when , In fact , ho voted for It upon roll call. The senate went Into executive session and soon adjourned. WAYS AND MHANH CUMMITTKtt. Si'Krc ; ! on ConrrriiliiR Ilia Turin Unit Were Alnilo tn It Ycnterdiiy. WASHINGTON , Sept. 8. J. A. Slovens , rep resenting the Ludlow Manufacturing com pany of Massachusetts , mndo a plea bcforo the ways and means commlttco today for the retention of tin ) duty on Jute bagging nnd binding' twlno mndo from hemp and Jute. Ho based his appeal on two grounds : First The heavy cost of imported machin ery and buildings , constituting cnormoui fixed charees. Second Tlio difference iif the cost of labor. Iho present duty Is 0.10 cents per square yard. He said the duty could bo reduced to 1 ccnl without material injury to the in dustry. Mr. Turner took Mr. Stevens in hand nnd gave him a severe slinking up. "You want protection , " said he , "against cheap labor in India ] " "Yes. I' "Do you think , then , that It is fair nnd equitable to make the farmer of the south , who produce cotton and who nlso pay higher wages tltun India does , pay a higher price for his bugging und then go Into the markets of the world and compute In price with the Indian cotton trrowcr ! " " 1 apprehend , " replied Mr. Stc\ens , "that the answer to that question Involves the whole theory of protection or free trade. " [ Laughter. ] "And you don't care to go Into that ? " "No , sir. " Being closely pressed , Mr. Stevens ad mitted that the jute trust had taken advan tage of the protection accorded by the tariff and that its prices had oeen u great hard ship on the southern farmer. "If it should put up prices again I should bo willing that the manufacturers of jute bagging should bo punished by placing bag- Ring on the free list. " Leopold Moritzot Philadelphia , a manu facturer of bono buttons , who talked very broken Kngllih , regaled the committee with a long account of his experience when ho landed at Castle Garden years ago as a Ger man Immigrant boy. This so whetted the keen appctlto of the fun-loving members ttint ho was induced to go into a philosoph ical discourse ou the scheme of human life , which gradually degenerated into n histor ical and detailed narralivo of how ho cnuio to bo In the bono button business. When ho had exhausted himself without touching his subject , he gathered up the boxes of buttons ha bad brought with him and gave the corn- mltteo this parting siiHuo : "You got nodings moro to say. I ain't got nodlngs ncldor , so vo qvit. " At the afternoon session Hon. E. M. Storer , a republican representative from Cincinnati , presented n memorial Ire in u largo number of brewers tn his district in favor of the reduction of thO duty on hops. lie contended that this was an instance where protection did no ; protect. Hops are only produced to any great extent In three states , New Yorl ; , Wisconsin and California , while brewing is a big indtstry in every stale of the union , Representative Fitch of Now York sup ported this appeal for a reduction of the duly ou hops in a short speech und then in troduced Hugh F. Fox , whom ho dcsci-ibcd ns n ' 'grouer and exporter , and nn importer of hops. " Mr. Fox spoke on behalf of the Importers. Ho declared a duty of 8 cents ample to protect tto American grower nnd produced a table showing how prices had fallen with the increase of the duty. Hcprcsoutativo Myer of Now Orleans was also heard In support of the nrop'ositlon for the reduction of the duty on hops. William Wllklnsof Baltimore , a manufac turer of curled hair and bristles , followed with a plea for the retention of the present duty on those articles. Louis Merifield of Baltimore , representing theclgarmakers of tnat city , asked fora reduction of the duty of $2.75 nnd $ - per pound on Sumatra tobacco to u specific duty of 35 cents i. He claimed that this duly was levied for Iho benefit of New England 10- bacco growers and amounted to fully 500 per cent. Ho went so far us to charge that some of the moro wealthy clear manufactur ers were favoring the retention of this high duty in order to crush the small concerns , Adjourned. cr.oTimivii.i. .

The last cxticmlty of cloture Is not to bo Invoked by the Ainer- lean senate. The heavy mnjorlty of mom- bcrs is in favor of the unconditional repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act , but this majority has been carefully celled , nnd It has declared that the condl- tlons are not such ns to warrant the radical departure from the time-honored traditions of the senate that would bo necessary to snnirn n cloture of dubato and force the toe jioal bill to the final voto. To ono unfamiliar : with the situation the avcnta of the last few days have been uninteresting und unim- lorinnt. Out to one who has oBsurvcd the . repealed conferences In Iho lobules of Iho chambers , and Is aware of the conferences dally held between the president and load ing senators , participated in almost invaria- lily by Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle. Iho events have ' been full of promise not ie.of the passage of 'tho unconditional repeal bill , but of a i.'oinpromlso mi-nsuro. The senators who have openly expressed themselves in favor of unconditional repeal : and they are nearly three-fifths of the senate have been consulted as to the advisability of the 'loturo rule nnd the result has been that less than thirty of the olghty-slx senators have expressed them selves In favor of resorting to such ne measures. This starlling cloture , ro , will not Do attempted , IMuns of tlxi .Minor- ) ! . With cloture finally abandoned , there re- nmln but two alternatives for the repeal senators u compromise or n defeat at the hands of a filibustering minority. That the minority intend to filibuster no ono can doubt. Compromise , therefore , will bo at tempted , Today this has been about hors only theme of discussion among the leaders of the senate und a t > crlcs of conferences are to be held from time to time until the end of next week , when It is hoped n clear majority will bo found wedded to a proposition which will also pacify the minority. The proposition of compromise now under discussion und meeting with the greatest favor , provloes that , coupled with the bill ' repealing the purchasing claiibu of the Sher man act , there shall boa law directing the secretary of the treasury to buy monthly a considerably reduced amount of silver bul lion and to actually coin It into money , The. ' secretary of the treasury is also to bo given , .unplo power to protect all money of the ; United States nnd make It Interchangeable , In addition to this national bunks of theme United States are to be permitted to issue circulation notes up to the face value of the United Status bonds they have on deposit In the United States treasury. Concessions to slate batiks uro also discussed , It Is certain that no single item of the above propositions can receive n majority \otoofthoBcnato , The four separate and distinct subjects which it Is proposed to Include clude In the repeal bill OB the various com promise amendments thereto represent the four factions Into which the United States senate may bo said to bo divided at this time. None of these factions nould get what It has been demanding , but each would got slight concessions und would retire from the conflict free with the lam els nf a partial victory und frco from the onus of defeat.

CniCAOo , Sept. S. [ Special telegram to TUB Hen. ] There Is war between Iho bl ? National Linseed Oil company nnd Inde pendent producers. It extends throughout the United States and to far countries and threatens destruction to ono of the giants In the fight. The entire producing capacity of the country Is Involved on ono sldo or the other and It seems since war to the death has been declared that something must break before peace Is restored. Whtlo the conflict lasts consumers will bo benefited by u reduction to the extent of about 05 per cent In the price of oil. Moro than two years ago the Unseed Oil trust wns formed. Later the mills of the trust , some forty-two In number , were merged into a corporation with a capital of $18,000,000 under the title of the National Linseed Oil company. Forty- two mills turned over their property and took trust stock , and almost an equal number were loft outside because their owners could not , get such terms ns they desired for them , and us soon nsi the Irust was ready for business or ex ceeded in any other industry. The Irust's stock ruled low In the L'Os when It should have been quoted 100 per cent uboro that figuo onjthe exchange , the trust people suid , ( Then the Itow Commenced. At n conference an agreement was arrived at which has never bern made public. It was known that the principal terms wore on prices , and for some time quotations were firm ntIII cents per gallon , each side adhering to this price. It Is said by friends of the trust that as the time for which the agreement was made approached preached an end , some of the outsiders of fered to get in , but were refused. Friends of the outsiders said that a strong agreement to stand together to fight the giant was quietly made. D However this may be , prices began to drop , and when the original aeroemcnt ex pired a few days ape oil was offered at DO cents , which producers say is about cost , with seed strong at S1.03 per bushel. _ With falling prices of product , tlio price of' trust stock began to dwindle nnd It can be bought today for somewhere between 14 and 15 , a decline ot moro than 10 points. F. E. Pctt It , who represents the Nntlona Linseed Oil company lu tlm Chicago district wus seen at his office. Ho confirmed the rumors of war and said the situation now amounts to a case of the survival of the lit est. est."Is "Is your company attempting to force in outside concerns !

" I. G. McCullouch , "secretary of the Na tional Linseed Oil company , asserted that the decline in stocits and the fall in the prices of tiie commodity were duo solely to the stringency of the time. | "We are confronted by this , strange con dition" observed Mr. McCullough. "We have no unusually largo supply of the product , yet the price has been coming down. " According lo Hie manager af the National Linseed Oil Corapauys works there in no linseed oil trust to bo broken up. ' The National Ltnseeo Oil company , " said ho , "owns about forty branches , and carries on ibo manufacture of oil In various places In Minnesota , Wisconsin , Iowa. No- braska and other states of the northwest , but it never possessed a monopoly and has never sought to create one. Tnu company has simply extended Its business and pur chased every factory It had the means to nc- quire , but it has never been without power ful opposition. " COLVKAUO'S OVT1'A.\ ] ' $ .
