Open war was bo- { tin In the house today. Partisan hostilities wcro inaugurated over the Tucker bill to repent the existing fei'cral election laws. The republicans of the committee on electIng - Ing president , vice president and members of congress had shown their hand at the meeting of the commltteo In the morning by forcing the democrats to produce a quorum In order to report the bill to Iho house. It became apparent nt the outset that the re publicans would light the proposition to re peal the existing election laws to the bitter end. Hy their actions and words yesterday it is understood they are In desperate earnest nnd the present election laws will only be repealed after a hard light und bitterly contested struggle. They won llrst blool today by forcing the passage of the resolu tion revoking all leaves of absence and sum moning absentees by telegram lo Washing ton. Some of Iho adminislration democrats - crats , led by General Trucoy of New York , knowing the opposition to the present con sideration of this bill or of any other bill in tlio house which may complicate the light in the senate lor unconditional i cpcal , acted with the republicans. Tins angered the sil ver democrats , and especially the bouih- crnors , who are particularly intercslod in the passage of the Tucker bill. It is claimed tonight that the president did not countenance this course on tlio part of his recogni/.od lieutenants in the house. War lic'KiniVliiii ! I'l-iiyi-r Cndi'il. General Hurrows , who assumed command of tlio republican minority , was standing in tlio center aisle with his lance in rest , and ns soon as the chaplain's prayer ended , ho boldly issued his challenge for war to the knife. It was concealed under a very inno cent looking request for the unanimous con sent to dispense with the calling of commit tees for representatives , but .Mr. Tueltor , the author of the bill , and other democratic loaders , who wcro keenly alert , realized im- inciUiteIythat : , the light was on. " 1 ( JttJiJet , " shouted Mr. Tucker. ' Mr. Burrows then blandly moved that the call bo dispensed wlih. It being apparent that child's play was intended. Mr. Tucker called for the yeas and nays. During the roll call the republicans remained in their seats , impasLively refusing to veto In order to break a quorum. Some of Iho adminis tration members followed in their wake and refused to answer to their names. Tlio re- sultof the vote yeas , -I ; nays , 10(5 ( developed 110 quorum an.l a call of the liouso was ordered. This showed " -1 members present , hut the democratic managers , real Izing that they must furnish a quorum of their own , proceeded under the second call , with closed doors , to listen to excuses. Tin : screws wcroto bo pul on. The democratic energies were to he directed toward secur- ing the passage of a resolution revoking all leaves of absence , except in the case of sicki ness , anil instructing the sorgeant-at-arms to telegraph for absentees. lU'cil'K Si'linni.i to < iln Tlini > . Temporarily ex-Speaker Heed foiled then by offering a motion to adjourn. When this failed , the previous question was called 01 the resolution to revoke leaves. This gave cnch side llftceu minutes for debate. Gen v oral Grosvenor of Ohio controlled the time " ' and led Hie debate for the republicans , " \Vben Iho president called congress in extraordinary session in midsummer , " sal he , "to apply the remedy which the llnan clal Interests of the country demanded , the democratic leaders , rceognl/.ing the divisions In their party , appealed to us to stand am sustain the administration from overwhelm Ing defeat. The republicans almost to a man , rccognl/.lng the condition of the coun try , demanded that p-irtisanshlp bo laid iisldo--iiolwiihstamling the fact that the president in his mcisago trid denounced the republican party resolved lo sup port the administration and force Into Ia\v , over the hauls of the nmjjritv of the presi dent's own party , n measure which ho de manded.

The bill lo repeal inn Sher man silver law is not yet a law. U it hap pens to p.iss the senate when it re turns hero with the annoy wo may see ro'-enacted the scenes of the llrst few weeks of the session and the administration may not ho able to muster to its support a solid republican vote. 1 he conditions tint made the pacs-igo of the \ \ ilsun bill neccs- Barv ' are faultily passing away. Them may bo 'a revulsion of puliUc Iceling that will defeat the adminUtraloi : as It would have been defeated n couple of weeks ago had H rot been for the patriotic in" ion of HID republican minority. " | Applause. | Mr. Mc.Mltlln , Hushed and excited , replied to General CSrosvonur : "You can do your worst , " angrily pounding his desk ; "this bill will bo reported and passed , if not to morrow , then next day or iho next or next week , but repeal it \\o will make no mis take about It , " [ Loud applnuse from demo cratic side. ] " \N hv don't you bring In a democratic ma- lorlt.N I" Inquired Wilson of Washington. -Wo will bring It In , " repliml McMlllIn , "and then wo won't ask jour aid.

Senator Daniel of Virginia , who occupied the time of the senile - ilo today with tlio presentation of a care- ully prepared argument against the repeal f tlo : Sherman law , spolte to crowded g.il- 01 ies ami a good senatorial audience. Dtir- ig the coursoof his speo.'h many inouibsrs f the house came into the chamber and took oats In the rear of the senator's chair or stood against the wall. When the routine morning business wai concluded Mr. Stewart of Nevada moved to ako up his resolution for 'i committee to in vestigate whether senators wor-J intoroslo I n national banks. Mr. Voorhues' counter- notion to pass to tlio consideration of the cpcal bill was agreed to on a viva voce vote , vhicli was quite unanimous , and Mr. Slew- art sat down. Mr. Lindsay of Kentucky has given notice that he will address the senate tomorrow. .1 will bo his llrst formal speech in the scn- Uo. Senator Ilausbroi'gh of North Dakota , ivho expected lo speak earlier in thu week , may also bo heard. When the senate mot , Mr. Faulkner , dem ocrat , ol West Virginia , submitted an amend ment to the repeal bill which was read. It ( provides ) llrst for the coinage of the bullion in the treasury at its coinage value , worth un now ? l l,0011,0)0 , , at the r.ite of 'I.U)0llX ( ) ) ) per month , and authorised in udditiMti the pur chase of l.f > r > 0Kn ( ) ounces per mo.ith , though this ; amount purchased is not lo be coined until utter all the bullion now in the treasury uit itt coined , unless in the opinion of the secre tary of the treasury the demands of the country require it. After all the bullun now in the treasury is coined , the amend ment provides for the monthly purchase of enough silver to coin ll.OOO.OOd silver dollars until such time as the aggregate silvcrcircu- Jatioii of the country shall reach fSOO.OOO.OOO. , All silver dollars thus coined and heretofore coined are to bo legal lender. Air. Ilnwley , republican , of Connecticut , rose to a question of personal explanation , Mr. Teller , republican , of Colorado , had said in the recent discussion between them sI that ho ( Mr. Hawlc.O had remained aw.iy from the senate during the present session. 'Mint senator had corrected it in the Con gressional Kecord , but that went for noth ing. i If not C'jrrectod in the ropirts ol the Associated press in a few minutes such things were sent like lightning throughout the country. That statement had boon pub lished 1 in Connecticut and ho could not have 1t 1 the respect of his constituents unless he t altoaded to business. Ho said he had been 1 absent but three dais. Mr. Teller , republican , of Colorado , said that ho did not mean to say that the senator from j Connecticut was unduly absent ; in fact ho | did not suppose ho Irul been gone thivo days. Ills remarks convoyed no suggestion of criticism. IK-lunuratlit Arsninent Ag.iinit l > piMl. The repeal bill wa.J then taken up. and Mr. Daniel , democrat , of Virginia , addressed the senate In opposition to tlie bill. In 1MI-J , he said , there were two opinions in which there was general concurrence ; llrst , that the Sherman law ought to lie repealed , and second , that gold and silver ought 10 bo coined without discrimination or charge for mintage. Ho thought that ihese concurrent opinions should now bo ombo lied in one act. Mr. Daniels , roforrimr to the iutimalions of a deal between southern and western senators said that he entertained tli" finan cial views ho did long before no had inti mately associated with them. The western senators desurviid irre.it ere.lit. They had shown that they represented no sectional interests , but regarded nil America and every American as under their protecting care. Ho tdiouM not forget , whoever else might fail to remember it , when Senator Voorhees drew lhat beautiful l picture of a h irmony of all sojtions in this glorious country , of the union of all hearts and all ban ! s for the common prosperity and the common good. He could but look from the eloquence of the lips that pronounced the words to the other side of the chamber and could but feel his heart go out in gr.itltudofor the notile chain- pious of civil lilic'rty from tlio great west who stood by democrats In the senate in the hour of their counto's need and did not permit a president of their pir'.y to shake them In their faith of free America ami free constitutional government. [ Applause. ] l.o.Vlll Vnt til ( 'liitnlllllll. Alluding to 1're.sidcnl Cleveland , Mr. Daniel said ho had born loyal to him in ttiroi ) campaigns. Ho expected in many days 01" battle yet to bear his colors and to deieinlhiscourso. Ho would not pav him the tribute of the courtier and the Iliittorcr and say , "Hohold l.'io bravo and honest man who bus convictions , " Ho would imitate Dial example as ho understood it ana should show him and all that the American senator had his convictions and was brave , honest and true to them and would defend them. | Applause. ) In conclusion , Mr. Daniel said : "f ot us remedy our nnancial system with justice to all interests , respecting every obligation of our public faith as it is interpreted , and let us nil stand together , without any Interest of section or of class , in the briud spirit of American brother ! ) which gives to the world the motto. 'Kuuh for All and All for IC'ich , uml America Against the World. ' " [ Ap plause. ] Mr. Stewart rose to n question of privi ' lege. Yesterday , in speaking of an editorial In the Washington I'ost , ho had said it was "probably paid for. " Ho had used the language inadvertently , and now desired to withdraw it as being uncalled for und , untrue. After a brief executive session the senate adjourned. _ AlUil I.Nii rOU I'ilOTIUTlON. liuhidlrli' * Itcprii'i'iiti'd Iliilore the Wjyj uiul .M.'Uiik Ciiiiiinlitt'O V ' < ( i'rdiy. : WASIIINOTOK , Sept.

[ 'he time is all too long for those who hiivo ecurcd their certificates of registration nnd reanxlo'is for the raoo , but for ihoso who resllll awaiting the opportunity to register t Is all too short. List nl'ht ; the situation , rom the point of view of the unregist'jrod womors , was \vell nljli hopeless. There voro fully Ift.uOJ of them , with additions > eing made to their ranks every ho'tr , and hey were being registered at the rale of about S,0K , ( ) a day. Added to their anxiety on this score came the hot wave , unproco- lonted at this season oC the year , which nado their very existence exceedingly pro- larious. This morning the slumilon looked more nopoful. Additional facilities for registra tion had been provided , the hot weather had moderated a few degrees and Iho boomers linil some little exciiso for living. 1'lioy are now convinced , however , that the path of the liomeseeiter is not altogether a rosy one ind every man and woman who secures a claim next Saturday will liavo earned it in physical suffering and endeavor and loss of [ ) o.ico of mind. The weather today , while it was very hot , was much more bearable than yesterday. The thermometer registered H7at noon , tint the hot wind which continued from yes lerday died down and in its place came a breeze from Ihe northwest which was com paratively refreshing. No deaths from sunstroke wcro reported today. The action of the Interior depart ment in providing means to facilitate regis tration is heartily commended on all sides , and it is .low believed that alt can DO pro vided with certificates before Saturday noon. Would Hum tin ) If rlil ? . The rumor that the owners of fast horses had plotted to burn the railway bridges In the Strip , with the objector handicapping Ihoso who propose to mane the race on Saturday in excursion trains , caused much excitement among ail classes. It is believed that the patrol of troops established about the border Is suflloient to prevent the en- Ir.inco of any and all unauthorized persona and thai the plot. If one really exists , can bo easily frustrated. It had been known all along that the boomers who own fast horses were bitterly opposed to the running of trains into the Strip on Saturday. Olllcers this evening discovcted evidence thata number of owners of fast horses hero and at Gnthrio have hired a gang of "sooners' ' to go upon the Strip and burn the bridges the night before the opening , thus shutting oil' train trans portation. The marshal of Oklahoma has been asked to send a force of deputies to guard the bridges. All bridges will bo watched from now.utUilafter the .run. . TJio job as planned by tholiorsc owners was to divide all lands secured by them with the "sooners" who iired the bridges. The Santa Fo olllcials have boon informed of the scheme and are also taking measures to frustrate it. Cattlitmi'n I'roti'nt.

Dr. Gallagher of the interior department , having charge of the registration boo thn. re ceived a teleirram from Secretary Hoko Smith today aulimri/ing him to iile : all steps necessary to facilitate registration and to render registration as convenient and comfort iblo as possible. Di1. Galla'.1 ! ! ' es tablished ' two booths in this city this even ing I and rcgHtralion will bo commenced al them : tomorrow morning. In the meantime ro''Utratloi : ) at tbti old booths south of here will continue until the line is exhausted. Koclslratlon will bo kept tin all through Ihe nK'ht if no.'ossiiry. When Ihe last man in line receives his ceriilleato tne hoiitliH will bo moved to iho town , where drinking water , food and shelter fro-n the sun can bo easily obtained. This will in a great measure relieve the intense suffering of the p-oplo in line , it IK doubtful if all who desire them will bo able to secure eo > ' - lilicates of registration. Hundreds ol homo- seekers continue to arrive on every train and rapid work will have to bo done if all are to have tin * opportunity of registering. Onlv about thirty-six hours remain during which registration will bo possible bofoiv the hour for the race for homes arrives. If all the hotiihs should be kept open nvery hour between now and Saturday it would bj possible to register all comers. This cour.so will doubtless bo adopted by Dr. Gallagher. Hi1.ivyVurU lit OtliiT Point * . At Orlando today over 8,011' ) ccrtiile.itcs were Issued and tlu number of people de manding the opportunity lo register was fully 10.0 K ) . The , force of clerks at Iho booths tluu'u was Increased again todaj and . a night foivo will bo put to work tonight. It Is believe I alt will bo able to register b > fore noon K iturday. The sufferlm : trom Hi i j heat and dust was intense again today , al though the therinomeler did not reach ,110 high mark ot yesterday. K irl.v in the hfter- noon Iho wind gel around to the northwest and the mercury uid not register over 'J.'i3. ' At L'aldwell a plentiful supply of water near the reglstrnllon booths relieved the sulferlng of the men In line before Iho booths. A brisk northwest wind came up in the afternoon and somewhat tempered the heat. Out In the line , with no shelter from the uun'a rays , iho boat was dreadful and the suffering intense. There are lliero alxut I'.ouu people still awaiting the oppor tunity to secure the precious certilicate , and hundreds of people are coming in on every Hock Island train to bo added to the i'.vn ber. The number of cortiticates isbued ; ovuVy ten hours reaches abjtit S.OJO now , and it is believed all will bo accommodated. If necessary , iho booths south of Ualdwoll > will bo kept open all of Friday night. At Slillwalcr the booths are still besieged with boomers anxious to secure certificates of registration. The force of clerks Ihero has been Increased so lhat all who apply before Saturday noon will have the oppor- l jiiily lo register. At Hunnowell registration continues un- inlerrupied , but the crowd there is compar atively small. irho At Kiow.i the crowd Is larger , but the force of clerks nt iho booths Is amply suf- lie-tent to care for it. idllorI'MIII' | < I'luiiTitl , Tlio remains of A.
