WARNER HAS AN OBJECTION This Oancos tbo Bonato Bill for tha Exclusion ofAnarchitta to Go Over , CONFERRED FAR TOO MUCH POWER and Oaten Itrply to tha Objection Itnuod liy the Now Yorker Tire JIuiHlrril Annrclilitti linrouto to the United Stntci. WASHINGTON , Aug. 21. There was not a quorum present when tha house began Us Bcnslon today , but members sought to take up several measures by unanimous consent. The senate bill allowing an additional $51,000 for the public building at Little Rock , Ark. , wan panned. The senate- bill for the exclusion and de portation ot iill'n anarchists was called up Mr. Warner , democrat of New York , objected to the consideration of the bill. "I regret , " ho said , "that I must always stand hero and protest against putting In the handset ot administrative officers the enormous power conferred by this bill. " "Docs not the gentleman know , " Inter posed Mr. McMlllIn , democrat of Tennessee , "that COO anarchists , whoso descriptions are already In the hands of the police , are on their way to these shores' " "The gentleman from New York , " replied Mr. Warner emphatically , "cannot be panlc- slrlcken and he objects to giving to officers the pursuit of a crime not punishable accord ing to our statutes nnd to giving them power to deport such persons as they may deem offenders. " "Whenever a word Is used In a statute , " suggested Mr. Gates , democrat of Alabama , "It Is given the common law Interpretation. " "Thero Is no definition of anarchy In com mon law , " replied Mr. Warner , "and I object to the consideration ot this bill. " .

Omlnxluii of it 1'orlod In the Krco I.Ut Mukos Olio Selirtluln UnlntolllKlblo. WASHINTGON , Aug. 21. Additional er rors In punctuation In the now tariff bill arc constantly being discovered by the treasury officials. Today an Important mistake was found In section 5 of the free list. This flection provides that articles of foreign man ufacture must bo stamped with the name , of the country of origin , and then says : "And until so marked , stamped , branded or labelled the-y shall not bo delivered to the Importer should any article of Imported merchandise bo marked , stamped , " etc. , In excess of the quantity actually contained In such article , etc. It Is assumed that there should have been a period placed between the words "Importer" and "should. " but as there Is none the paragraph as It stands Is unintelligible and may lead to serious em barrassments in Its execution. Up to this time Secretary Carlisle has not asked any opinion of the attorney general upon the many mistakes ( n the bill , nnd he will probably not do so until after the bill becomes a law. The secretary , however , has expressed the opinion that all goods now In bond which have been changed from the dutiable to the free list will be subject to the duty In 'force when Imported , It withdrawn for consumption. The goods can , however , bo exported and then rclmported , and thus receive the benefits ot the free list. It Is known , however , that this was not the In tention of congress. Early in the preparation of the bill this question was raised , but the words "or withdrawn for consumption , " which appear In the enacting clause , wore then deemed to clearly Indicate that goods In bond could bo withdrawn upon the new rates. But the true significance of the words "und mentioned In the schedules heroin contained , " which follow , do not seem to have been fully understood. CONSIDKK IT TOO DKASTIC. Ilonso MembeiB Not Very A Veil IMennoit with Hill' * Antl-Aimrehlflt inn. WASHINGTON. Aug. 21. Some opposition 1ms been made to the bill Introduced by Sen ator Hill which recently passed the senate to prevent anarchists from coming to the United States. The bill Is now In the house , but with the small number of representatives here and the lack of a quorum It Is Impossible to pass 'tho bill except by unanimous consent. Any two or three men can thus prevent ac tion at this session. Of course the "bill can go over until the next session , but there Is considerable desire on the part ot the Treas ury department and other officers of the gov ernment to have It passed at this session. fflio objections made to Senator Hill's bill Is that the provisions made In It for the de portation ot anarchists are too drastic. It Is claimed that any person adjudged an anarch ist could bo deported under Its provisions , even It ho had boon In this country for many years. Senator Hill docs not think that this claim Is sufficient to cause any trouble , as It Is not likely that innocent persons will be made to suffer and that It will bo enforced only against those who are very objectionable and whom all society would desire to sco re moved from this country to such countries as they emigrated from. cor.oitun uiuouu.vTS : African Democratic Iaiiio : | Waiitf the Con- ( jreHiloiml Iture.ui Abolhhed. WASHINGTON , Aug. 21.

Chairman Astwood , In urg ing Immediate action , gays there Is nothing to be accomplished by the burciu , recounts Its assessment letters now under Investiga tion by the civil service commission and characterizes Its methods as Imprcper. Ho states the work of the league covers all the needs of the colored voters ot the country , and that though appreciating the recogni tion of a negro as the head of a bureau of the committee there Is no reason for the existence of the bureau. The action Is the result of Instruction given In President C. H. J. Taylor and Chairman Astwood at the league convention at Indianapolis. Senator Faulkner , chairman of the democratic con gressional campaign committee , said today that very good and sulllclent reasons must bo produced before the bureau would bo abolished , but that It had no power to col lect contributions.

Free Coinage Advocate * Delighted with Their Tone The feigner * . WASHINGTON , Aug. 21. The resolutions Introduced by Representative Hartman ot Montana In the house today for the free coinage - ago of silver are regarded by the free sliver advocates &B one of the most significant ex pressions In favor of their doctrine which have been elicited by the agitation of the past year. The resolutions have been con sidered and adopted during the present ses sion by the most powerful labor organizations of the country , are strongly worded and arc signed by the chief officers of the various unions. The signers are : J. W. Sovereign , grand master workman , and John W. Hayes , secretary and treasurer , ot the Knights of Labor ; Samuel Gompcrs , president of the American Federation of Labor ; Marlon But ler , president of the National Farmers Alli ance ; Henry H. Trenor , president , and P. J. McOuIre , secretary ot the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners ; P , M. Arthur , chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers ; C. A. Robinson , president of the Farmers Mutual Benefit association ; Frank Sargent , grand master workman , nnd F. W. Arnold , secretary and treasurer ot the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen , and John McDrlde , president of the United Mlno Workers of America. Accompanying the resolutions Is an address "to the members of organized labor nnd all other producers and tellers throughout the United States , " which led to their adoption. The address declares that "In view of the general distress at a time when granaries arc full and In the natural order of things pro ducers and tellers should be enjoying the fruits of their labor , It seems that the time has como for united action on the part ot those who create the wealth ot the country. " One of the causes which have brought about this condition , the address says , Is the departure from the wise bimetallic financial principle of Washington , Jefferson and Ham ilton and the substitution of the monometallic policy dictated by the European money holders and their Acmrican allies. A review of financial legislation Is given to show what part was enacted In the In terest of the producing and what ot the non- producing .classes. The proposition Is set forth that before the demonetization of silver 3,500 bushels of wheat or 35,000 pounds of cotton equaled the annual pay of a senator or congressman , while today 10,000 bushels of wheat or 100,000 pounds of cotton barely sufficed ; that formerly 35,000 bushels of wheat or 350,000 pounds ot cotton would have paid the salary of the president , whllo today lie receives the equivalent ot 100,000 bushels of wheat or 1,000,000 pounds of cotton , and the same proportion applies to all other fixed salaries and Incomes. Demorall/atlon of the food producing sec tions Is said to have caused the manufacturers to lose the markets for their goods , so that hundreds of thousands of workmen have been thrown out of employment and the demone tization of half ot the world's volume of money to make It comparatively easy for capitalists to corner and manipulate the other half. In the review of financial legislation It IB charged that all acts since the civil war have been In the Interest of the bond holders and against the producers , and the Sherman law Is said to have been repealed at the demand of European financiers , al though a grand fight was made by the pee ple's representatives. The resolutions are as follows : We demand of the present congress the Immediate return to the money of the con stitution ns established by our fathers , by restoring the free nnd unlimited coinage of sllvnr at a ratio of 10 to 1 , the colna of both metals to be equally legal tender for all debts , public and private , aa before the fraudulent demonetization of silver In 1873. We nlso condemn the Incrcnsc of the na tional debt In the time of peace nnd the use of Interest-bearing bonds at any time. NinV riVL-DOLLAU 1UI.I , .

Only I.lRlit I.ocul Shoirent Unto I'nllcn In Alimt Countlov COLUMBIA , Mo. . Aug. 21. The weather crop bulletin of the Missouri weather service for the week ending August 18 , says : The mean temperature for the week ranged from flvo to eight degrees above the normal In nil sections of the state. The percentage ot sunshine was also much abovcthe normal , and although local showers occurred In nearly every county they were as n rule very light and except In a few counties the drouth con tinues. The condition of the corn- crop , has , ot course , suffered a further decline and In several coun ties , corn Is being cut to save the fodder. In some sections late corn Is past help nnd will make little or nothing , while In others , with seasonable rains , the yield will bo fairly good. In a few localities in the northcentral and southeastern counties , where quite heavy showers occurred , pas tures are somewhat Improved , and In a few of the western counties they are stilt In fair condition. Potatoes are reported a good crop In a few counties , but the yield gen erally will bo light. Apples are still falling off badly frcm the effects of the drouth nnd sccrchlng sunshine. Many correspond ents report that no plowing for wheat has been done as yet , the ground being too dry. KANSS COKN 1I1JVONU IlKLl * . Itulns IIuvcj I'nllcn In Muny Localities but Iliivo Done No Cood.

The United States weather bureau has Issued the following bulletin : Good rains have fallen In the ex treme northern counties of the eastern di vision and In Cloud and Republic , and In the southern part of the middle and eastern divisions , except In Cowloy , Chautauqua , and the southern part of Montgomery , while over the rest of the state little or no rain fell. The average dally excess of tempera ture has been from i to D degrees , with about a normal amount of sunshine. Pastures and some fields of late corn have been benefited In the localities where rain has fallen , while over the larger part ot the state pastures are suffering , the ground is too dry to plow , and corn generally Is be yond help , except In Cherokee , where It is In good condition and promises a full crop. Prairie hay Is about all in the stack , and corn cutting and threshing are In progress over the entire state. Stock water Is be coming very scarce , as the rains were not heavy enough to affect creeks or wells. Late potatoes will generally be a short crop. Apples continue to fall badly.

The Illinois weekly crop bulletin says : In the northern division where rain fell the corn has been benefited and the crops Indicate a more en couraging outlook. In the central division the rains of this and the preceding weeks have been of the greatest benefit to the corn and while In some sections there are many fields that are permanently Injured , It Is now thought the yield will be much butter than was expected a few weeks ago. The crop In the southern districts Is In poor condition , drying up In some sections and much of the early planted corn Injured beyond recovery. Corn on bottoms Is still In fairly good con dition. Broom corn Is being harvested with pros pects of a good yield of fair quality. LIVKLY IIMB Iff A POO , American Liner llrrlln Hni n Couple ot Narrow ShuvuH. NEW YORK , Aug. 21. When the Ameri can liner Berlin loft Southampton August 11 she found the open sea In placid condition , but when she reached the edge of the New Foundland Banks banks of fog began to gather In the steamship's lane and as they grew more dense the engines were reduced In speed correspondingly. Occasionally the fog opened up a bit and then the Berlin was sent ahead at full tilt. On Wednesday the fog grew so thick that the lookouts had work to t > co as far as the steamer's bows and almost continually the fog horn was sending out its hoarse warning. In the depth of this gloom the Berlin was speeding along about 10 a. m. when , with out n preliminary warning , a black shadow loomed up directly In her track. Then there , was a shout ot warning from the lookouts and almost Instantly tha black shadow took form In the shape of a deeply laden brlgantlno heading to the southeast. She was drifting slowly and for an Instant the officer on the Berlin saw uo way out of rutting Into her broadside. But as a matter of Instinct he throw the helm hard over until the Berlin's head began to pay off. The hull jf the brlgantlno was apparently Jammed down also for she luffed up , Just crawling from under the tapering bows of the liner. But she was so close , some of the Berlin's passengers say , that her boom ecrapcd along the steamer's side. As the nailing vessel drifted astern her name was inada out to be "Alvo" of Liverpool. When dawn broke Monday the weather was cleared somewhat after the Berlin had left the fog banks , but the fog came on thick again and In patches. The Berlin was going ahead at full speed when a bank of mist would rise before her and then her engines would bo run slowly. When she was off Fire Island a fcg bank somewhat heavier than the others she had cut through dropped down and shut out everything from sight. The Berlin was poking In toward the Hook when another black shadow grew up In the mist , this time only a all p's length away. There was no time to sheer off and as the Berlin raced down toward the glo.my Hpector four tall masts arose through the mist and underneath them a heavy , low- lying hull The vessel was standing diag onally across the steamer's path and all hands on the bridge could see that It was going to touch. Then them was a Jangle ot bells and In an Instant the steamer's screw was spinning at full speed astern. Such of the crew as were on deck yelled In panic at the schooner's helmsman , but these aboard the sailing craft were well aware of their peril. They kept going and cleared the steamer's bows by a knife's edge and went bumping and scraping along the side. Ac cording to passengers on the Berlin the schooner's chain plates were cut away as If they had been razed with cold chisels. The Berlin ran up close to the vessel and balled the men on her deck , She was the O. H. Brown , and as her master declined help the Berlin took up her wuy to the Hook.
