Trial of Davles Assailants.
The outcome of the shameful attack
made upon Mr. John A. Darjas yester
day afternoon by the man Askins and
young Sage, is a long and tedious trial
of the assailants today in the comity
court to a jury upon the charge of as
sault and battery, Attorneys A N.
Sullivan and D O. Dwyer, prosecuting
County Attorney Gerlng being u. ent
from the city, and Attorneys O. H. JUl
lou and S. P. Vanatta, defending. A
multitude of witnesses has been intro
duced and at this writing the case is be
ing ar.u d to the jury.
As to the facts in the case, there
seemed to be but little contention except
some witnesses diet not see bage as an
attacking party, but that Askins contin
ued his attack and Davies only trying to
avoid his assailant, seemed to be the im
pression of most all the witnesses.
No matter what the verdict of the jury
may be in this case, the Herald has no
disposition to write up inflammatory ar
ticles that may keep men arrayed against
enrh other, but nrefer to see peace and
harmocv among our citizens.
As we go to press the case has not yet
been snbmitted to the jury, and shall
nut be able to rive the verdict till
Mondav.
Who Broke O'Neill's Ciass.
Some weeks ago, it will be remembered
one of the lartre flint mate ulass was
c
broken at night time in the O'Neill
building in which Gering & Co keep
their drug business. It was a mystery,,
till within a week or two ago, who the
perpetrater of the deed was, when it
came to light that a company of young
men were loitering about the front of
, the store, and it is alleged that one, Jack
H anrahan, of the company struck the
glass with a shrub, shattering it to pieces,
then the parties present agreed among
themselves not to divulge the name of
the guilty party, and that one of the
police knew the whole party, but re
maiped quiet about the matter because
his brother was connected with it, and
thereby shifted the blame on to
Jim Grace ' for not being more
vigilant andpreventing the unlawful act.
But not long agoit came out who the
guilty ones were and they very gladly
compromised the matter with O.Neill by
paying him f o0, for a glass that to re
place cost him $60. These are the facts
as we have been able to gather them,
that HanrahanJ intentionally struck the
glass and broke it, the other boys knew
of it, one officer knew it and because
hat officer's younger brother was con
nected with it they all concealed it, till
pushed to give it away, then came for
ward and paid the sum above named.
Tne Pulpit and the Stage.
Rev. F. M. Shrout, pastor United
Bretheren church, Blue Mound, Kas.,
says: "I feel it my duty to tell what
wonders Dr. King's New Discovery has
done for me. My lungs were badly dis
eased and my parishoners thought I
could live only a few weeks. I took five
bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery and
am sound and well, gaining Id pounds
in weight."
Arthur Love, Manager Love's Funny
Folks Combination, writes: "After a
thorough trial ana convincing evidence,
I am confident Dr. Kings New Discovery
for consumption, beats 'em all, and cures
when everything else fails. The greatest
kindness I can do my many thousand
friends is to urge them to try it.' Free

A REST ON SILVER
The Final Debate and Vote in
the Senate.
CONFERENCE REPORT AGREED
Tlie Kepublirana Cinrui aa to 1 . -

Hill Wyoming a Slat'.
Washington, July 11. Mr. Morg. n
spokf for three hours and closed w'.'ii
an jij.iertl to senators not to allow tav
sMi:;tir from Ohio (Mr. Sherman) t.
:iirust his stilletto again into silver.
lie wm-s followed by Mr. Call, who ar
,ued against the conference bill. su.j
gesting that it was only a variation of
tiu Farmers' Alliance warehouse bill,
and that the only difference was that
in the case of silver it was to be bought
outright.
Mr. Plumb haid that in the particu
lars which he regarded as essential the
bill wan comparatively unobjectionable
Mipposing always that a compromise
had to be made. The conference bill
would give to the country as much
am ,ey uuring the next year as the free
o i ige of silver would give. The
;t:uo;:nr of treasury notes now issued at
uie present pric of silver was about
$:$o.uno.lKU; under the conference bill it
couid not be less than $to,OOJ,000, and
would probably be f70,000,)UO. That
was a very important gain.
Mr. Vance How long will that last?
Mr. Plumb Just as long as silver is
, roiuced and t ie act remains on the
-tainte books. Failing to get the con
currence of the otlur house, sitting under
.he shadow of a presidential veto that
has been freely threatened (no doubt
without authority) we shall get out of
this whole controversy more than we
have ever gaine 1 since the days of the
greenback, issue, V the financial well
being of the countf y. Wre 6hall get that
which will prevent serious financial dis
turbance in the coming season. It is
o0 per cent, better than anything I ex
pected to get when I learned the result
in the hou.se of representatives.
Mr. Vance It is admitttnl that the
bill is not what it ought to be. Com
mon sense would dictate, then, that we
try to make it what it ought to be. Mr.
Vance went on to argue that the bill
would not result in an increase of the
currency, inasmuch as the four or five
millions of treasury notes issued each
month for silver would be presented at
The treasury and exchanged for gold
coin arwl would then be used for the
next month's purchase: and so on.
Tb s sngaesion. of Ji Vance's was
eoutfovtYftrJI by au Auison.
Mr. Dolph said that he would vote for
the conference bill, because he though.:
it as different from free coinage as
night is from day; and because he feared
that its rejection might result in the
passage of a free coinage bill. In tiie
course of Ins remarks -Mr. D ijm re
ferred satirically to the change of vievs
of senators who had voted for free ob
lige and who now favored the confer
Mce bill.
Ivir. Teller resented this allu-ion to
himself and others, wrm said that he had
noticed that the people v.i o were the
most fearful of the unancial situation
were those who were mit ignorant on
the subject. He admitted That there
was no free coinage ia tuf conference
bill, but he insisted that, objectional a.v
it was to him because it was not free
coinage, it was a step in tiie direction
uf free coinage. He (.ir. Teller had
never been afraid of an executive veto.
But when senators had exhausted their
eJforts to secure that wiiich they bo
iieved the best interests of the country
required, they were justified in accept
ing it.
Mr. Mitchell said that he had voted
for Mr. Plumb's free coinage amend
ment because he favored it, and because
the people of Oregon favored it. As he
could not get the bill he desired he
would give to the conference bill his
earnest and unqualified support.
Mr. Blair said that after listening to
one senator from Oregon (Mr. Dolph)
.vho found in the bill a gold standard,
.ind to the other senator from Oregon
(Mr. Mitchell) who found in it free coiu
a.g. and to the senator from Kansas
(Mr. Plumb) who was satisfied that it
was a free coinage bill, and to Th" ?pti
ator from Colorado (Mr. Teller; who
was not .-a;i: i"d with it precisely, Le
.'Mr. Blair) thought he would vote for it.
The vote was then taken, and the con

The house spent the greater part of
the day filibustering over the approval
o? the journal.
Mr. Outhwaite, as soon as the prayer
was delivered, raised the point of "no
quorum." There were several calls of
the yeas and nays on propositions for
a call of the house, etc., and a quorum
having appeared, the journal was read.
Mr. Enloe of Tennessee moved to
have corrected in it th-3 statement that
he was present and not voting during a
certain vote.
rir. Rogers of Arkansas took Mr.
Enloe's motion as the text of a speech
in severe criticism of the rules of the
house.
The journal was then amended as sug
gested by Mr. Enloe.
Mr. Fithian of niinois and Mr. Will
iams of niinois attempted to make cor
rections similar to that of 2Ir. Enloe,
but the speaker pro tem. (Burrows)
recognized Mr. Cannon of niinois to
move the previous question.
The journal was approved 108 to 81.
The conference report on the con

I NCI.K JKKKVS WORK,
Proving to the Hrltlsh That Our I.1t
stork .r" I-"re from IHM-ain.
Washington, July 11 In February
last Secretary Ti'Wit represented to the
state depart. ne it that contagious ani
mal diseases had leen so effectually
stamped out in this country as to war
rant that department in urging upon
the Briti.-h authorities the perfect safety
if removing their irksome and unjust
lestrictions imposed on the shipment of
American live cattle and sheep to lireat
Britain. Secretary Rusk declared that
the time had come when our diplomatic
office in London should make an effort
to secure this concession in behalf of our
greatest industries. Negotiations were
at once inaugurated by the state depart
ment resulting in the removal of the re
strictions relative to sheep, contingent
iwii action by this government which
ov.ld prevent the introdiiction of dis-
?s of sheep into this country. The
b. 'sh government, however, jtersinted
in ii-' refusal to grant any concession re-gardin,-
live cattle, alleging the con
tinued e: itence of contagious pleuro
pneumonia in the United States, and
that cattle aifectedwith this disease had
been discovered in recent shipments to
Great Britain from this country.
Secretary Rntk iut-t this allegation
with a prompt denial and the proposi
tion that his department should be rep
sented in Great Britain by veterinary
iiifcjieciors, charged with the duty of in
specting all American cattle landed in
that country. The department of stat
adopted the secretary's suggestion a
lias finally effected an arrangemeu.
'irough Minister Lincoln, for the ap
pointment of three inspectors for tfsa
purpose indicated. The secretary hi
already taken steps to carry out this ar
rangement, and the inspectors have
b-en appointed. One will be stationed
at Liverpool, one at London and one at
Glasgow. The" will sail for Europe at
once accompanied by Dr. Salmon, chief
of the bureau of animal industry, and
also by a special agent. The secretary
said that the restrictions of the BiitisL
government upon the importation of
beet cattle from this conntrv, upon tii
groundless nlea of continue 1 existenca
of contagious disease m the United
States, were uniustifiable and had lasted
long enough. He now proposes to prove
to the satisfaction or the
British authorities that no
iliseas-' exists in this country to 'war
rant tnese restrictions. It maintained
in spite of this evidence, some other
cause must oe assignee ror tnem. ne
said further that as soon as legislation
now pending was enacted he would in-
st it rite a i uorougu system or inspection
of cattle for export in this country, and
all cattle exported would be so tagged
that should diseise of any kind be dis
covered among taem by our inspectors
at British ports, there will be no diffi
culty in tracing it to its source and de
termining its true character.
liErUJJLICAN SKN'ATOUS CAUCUS.
Lortg Debate Over the Programme on the
K lection Kill.
"Washington, Juljr 11. The Repul
lican members of the senate held a cau
cus to consider the order of business for
the rest of the present session of con
gress with reference to the federal elec
tion law and the tariif "bill. It has been
understood generally that the Demo
cratic members of the senate intend to
prevent the passage of the Federal elec
tion law if possible, and to achieve tlm
purpose they are prepared to filibuster
against the tariff bill and any other
measure which may be brought up for
consideration with a view to prolonging
the session and tiring the Republican
senators into agreement to a comprom
ise by which the Federal election law
will be allowed to go over until the next
session.
Members of the finance committee
who are interested in the enacting of a
tariff law have urged upon their breth
ren the advisability of coming to an un
derstanding with the Democrats, under
which the tariif bill will be pulsed
within a reasonable time and the Fed
eral election bill allowed to gover. But
friends of the election bill have brought
a great deal of pressure to !ear in favor
enforcing that measure to a passage be
fore the adjournment, and with a view
of testing the possibilities of action they
have examined the rules of the senate
and the record t f past contests under
similar rules. The result justified them
in the belief that in spite of .the filibus
tering of the Democ: ..ts the bill could
be passed. In support of this claim it
was recalled in the caucus that when
the bill to provide for supervisors of
election was under consideration in
1871, Mr. Thurman offered, one after
another, thirty amendments, intended
to delay the consideration of the bill,
and by concerted and agreed action by
the republicans, under which one .Re
punncan senator was recognizer regu
larly to move to lay each amendment on
the table, all of these dilatory amend
ments were disposed of within twenty
four hours. It was proposed that the
senate should sit out the consideration
of the elections bill if it took three
months. This proposition was debated
at great length.
An agreement was finally reached by
which the postal subsidy bills, which
have been under debate for several days,
will be taken up to-day with a view to
taking a vote o i them before adjourn
ment, anil thar oa Saturday the sundry
civil appropriation bill will be called up.
The caucus adjourned at 11:10, with
the understanding that another caucus
will be held Saturday night to come to
a final determination on the subject.
