the debate on the Indian bill. The
particular provision under considera

tending the services of the Dawes
commission with a view to the making
of a roll of the Cherokee and kindred
nations. The commission is given di
rections toward terminating the tribal
relations of the Indians arid dividing
their lands in severalty.
The debate was protracted. In the
course of it Mr. Vest, Democrat, of
Missouri, spoke of the conditions iu
the Indian Territory as constituting a
national pest house and a nuisance, a
harbor of refuge for criminals, depre
ciating property in adjoining states

After further debate, the presiding
oflicer ruled the entire amendment out
on the. point of order made bv Mr.
Walthall, Democrat, of Mississippi

tion.”

made to the bill, the most important
being the Insertion of the item of 81,
300,000 for payment of the Cherokee
outlet fund, which hail been struck
out by the committee. Thu Indian
appropriation bill a* thus amended,

CONFERENCE CLOSED.
International Arbitration Men Complete
Their llaelnesn.
W aihiniiton, April 25.—The confer
ence for international arbitration,
which has been a very harmonious
one, closed last night with a mass
meeting in Allen's opera house, in the
course of which President Eliot, of
Flarvard, severely arraigned the for
eign pollsy of President Cleveland
and ills fellow townsman, Hecretary
Olney. The personalities, which Pres
ident Eliot uttered iu cool, measured
terms, were so pointed that they in
cited a decided sensation.
boms applause followed these re
marks, but there wug great upplause
when Bishop Keane, rector of the
Catholic University, who spoke next,
began; "I am not here to blame the
President or Congress. I don't believe
it is our purpose or our right to blame
either of them But we, as American
citizens, are free to sav that It is a
pity that things are as they are, com
pellinir the President and Congress to
talk of war with another civilized
nation."
The report of the committee on res
olutions and a general discussion
thereon was the business of the after
noon session. President Angel of the
University of Michigan presented the
report, which, after a lengthy pre
amide, resolves;
First--That in the judgment of this
conference, religion, humanity and
justice, as well as the material inter
ests of civilized society, demand the
Immediate establishment between the
United Mtates and Great Britain of a
permanent syateni of arbitration.
Second—That it Is earnestly recom
mended to our government, so soon as
it is assured of a corresponding dis
position on the part of the British
government, to negotiate atrectv pro
viding for the widest practicable
application of the methM of arbitra
tion to international controversies.
A P. A. FIGHT BLAND
III* Wlf* • Catholic, Which Prompt*
the Opposition.
St. Loots, Mo., April 25.—Every in
dication points to it bitter fight on
"Silver Hick" Bland in the event of an
ufTort being made in the Chicago con
vention to nominate him for the pres
idency of the United States. It ha*
leaked out that Mrs. llland is a devout
member of the Catholic Church, and
lias raised tier children In that faith.
The opposition to the nomination of
the great 10 to 1 silver apostle will
come from the members of the A. P.
A. llland is not a member of the
church, and is inclined to be liberal
in his views of religion. An author
itative an non nee men t that the A. P.
A. would tight llland's nomination
and election was given to a reporter
by Judge Stevens, State president of
tlie order for Missouri, and member of
tiie national executive board.

riirce and One-llalf Million Dollars
Spent for Political Purpose*.
Nkw Yokk, April 25.—It Is asserted
that the books of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railway show that 93,500,000 has
been taken from the treasury anil
spent fur political purposes. It ia
proposed to find out who got the
money. To do this It is stated that It
will be necessary to Investigate the
matter of the construction of the Phil
adelphia division of the road, the cost
of which has. never been made known
to the general stockholders, but which
has been variously estimated from
$12,000,000 to 920,000,000, and It is pre
dicted ttiat when the report of the
manner in which the liultimore and
Ohio obtained an entrance into Phil
adelphia is made knowu some very
prominent politicians of that city will
bavo reason to wish that those who
arc now directing the affairs of the
Baltimore and Ohio had never reached
that position.

IIariHiMumo, Pa., April 2«.—Senator
Quay left for Washington at B:lO this
morning, resisting the Iropurtunltlgs
of his friends that he remain until
after the Republican State convention.
While he was here he wag continually
besieged by visitors and it was neces
sary for him to hide lilrus-lf in order
to obtain rest. His action in deciding
to succeed himself as state chairman
robbed to day's convention of much of
its Interest. It Is generally believed,
however, that he will relinquish the
chairmanship after the national con
vention.
There was nothing for Mr. Quay to
do,for the delegates hold a caucus last
night and agreed upon the lifts of
names as follows;
Delegates at laige, Governor Hast
ings. James Klverson, publisher of the
Philadelphia Inquirer; K. J. Torrence
of Pittsburg, James G. Ileacom of
Greensburg, the Rev. Dr. T. L. Flood
of Mead villa; Joseph Hosier of Mont
fornery county, William M. Driest of
.ancaater, F. H. Barker of Kbensburg.
All of the men elated for delegates
to the St. DouIs convention are friend
ly to .Senator Quay's Presidential as
pirations.
The delegates were slow in gather
ing and It was not until 10:2ft o'clock
that the representative of Mr. Quay
called the convention to order. Two
conspicuous absentees were David
Martin ami Stale Senator Charles A.
Porter of Philadelphia, who had been
prominent figures at Republican gath
erings for more ihan twenty years.
been perfected, the resolutions com
mittee reported the platform, which
opens as follows: "For fidelity to the
principle* of Republicanism, I’etinsyl
vunia holds the first rank among till
the Htetes. Year after year it ha*
returned great majorities for the can
didates of that party, with no selfish
demands for recognition of any of its
own citizen* as it national candidate.
The time hus come when the Htate
which has so long and faithfully led
the Republican column may justly and
properly submit Its own preference
for the Republican nomination for the
presidency. In the presentation of
the Hon. Matthew Stanley Quay, the
Republicans not alone of I’enrisylva*
nia. but of the entire Union, will rec
og n/.e one of their foremost leaders,
wise in council and brilliant and able
in actios, at once the type of the
American citizen, scholar, soldier and
statesman. ”
The resolutions declare for a pro
tective tariff and reciprocity, protec
tion for American shipping, praise the
financial legislation of the Republican
party and continue: "Faithful to ite
record, believing that the people are
entitled to the use of the best money
mud anxious to restore and preserve
the Industrial and commercial nrov
perity of the union, the Republican
party favor* international bimetal
lism, and, until tliutcan be established
by general agreement, demand* the
maintenance of the existing gold
standard of value.”
Liberal pensions are called for and
the present, administration of the pen
sion bureau denounced. Restrictions
on immigration are demanded and
the state committee’s reform bills in
dorsed.

Washington, April 24.—The Senate
disposed of the sectarian school ques
tion by adopting a compromise framed
by Senator Cockrell of Missouri. The
Indian bill, as it came from the House,
provided that "no money herein ap
propriated shall be paid for education
in sectarian schools.” This provision
is struck out by the Cockrell amend
ment as adopted and it is declared to
be the settled policy of the govern
ment to make no appropriations for
sectarian schools after July 1, 1*98,
thus giving two years for the abandon
mentor sectarian schools, instead of
an immediate abandonment. The
amendment was adopted by the de
cisive vote of 38 to 24. The Indian
bill was uot completed when the Hen

BELLIGERENT CONGRESSMEN.
Kepressniatlvss Hall of Mlssoart and
Money of Mississippi Have a Lively
encounter.
Washiuoto*. April S4. — Congrese
men Muncy, Democrat, Henator-elect
from Mississippi, an I Cong rename n
Hall, Democrat, of Missouri, had
a personal encounter in the
room of the committee on na»
val affaire to-day ami Mr. Money
was hit in the face by Mr. Hell and
waa then atruck by an inkwell hurlsd
by the Missourian an 1 badly cut on
the head. Mr. Hall wae not touched.
Mr. Money and Mr. Hall are both
members of the na.ul commit tee, but
the committee was not in session at
the time.
Felix McCloskey, the messenger of
the committee. was standing at the
door, heard the two members talk
ing rather loudly uud then heard Mr.
Hall say: “I'll allow no man to call
me a liar.”
Then Mc< losliey saw the Missourian
reach over and plant his (1st in Mr.
Money's face, staggering him and
raising a lump.
Mr. Hall is u man of large stuture,
standing six f iet two and weighing
i^&0 pounds. Mr. Money Is also tallT
I mi t rather slender in build, anil no
match for his opponent physically.
Before Mr, Money could recover
himself, Mr. Hall seized a large glass
ink well from the table and hurled It
at bis opponent. The latter, already
dazed, could not dodge the missile,
and It struck him behind the car, cut
ting an ugly gash, and he fell hack
against the wall.
At this juncture McCloskey, who
had been making his way toivard the
irate congressmen, crowded between
them and prevented further on
slaughts, hut Mr. Hull was with dif
ficulty repressed from continuing the
assault.
Mr. Money stood ugninst the wall,
faint from loss of blood, which wa*
streaming down Ills neck from the
uf/iiind in III* lii'.ifl It* wii« liiii'riAfllv
taken to a committee room on tin
floor below, while Mr. Hall walked
calrnlv along the corridor to the hall
j of the House.
The blood from Mr Money's wound
dropped on the marble floor s* he wai
half carried down the steps, and n
great crowd immediately congregated
and there wa* much excitement.
The details of the cause of the en
counter wore hard to obtain, Mr.
| Hall, when seen immediately aftei
the tight, said that he did not desire
| to make a statemen', "It wa* a per
I tonal matter,” sai l he, "and 1 do nol
, desire to say anything. 1 do not sup
potto Mr. Money, either, will dare tc
make a statement. Mr. Wilson, i
member of the sub-committee, wai
present."
From others who were in the room
It was learned that Hall and Money
were arguing earnestly on tlm naval
restoration bill, in which Hull ia con
tiderably interested, a* to the propel
ranking In naval circles, and aftei
Hail had delivered himself of at
opinion he was heatedly replied to
whereupon he said that many of thosi
who were opposed to the bill did nol
believe in the views they advocated
This angered Mr. Money, and taking
the remark as a personal insult hi
called Mr. Hall a “d-liar.” Then
the fracas followed.
The occupant* of the room, know
tng the shooting proclivities of thi
Money family, expected to see hin
draw a revolver, but he was probablj
too much stunned by the blow to col
lect his sense* before friends had bin
in charge.
Further trouble between the twi
men is expected, for the reputation o
the Money family is that no one of Iti
member* ever allowed a blow or ai
Insult to go unresented
A friend of Mr. Money who was In
the room said: “Mr. Money was look
ing over his mall when Hall entered
and began discussing a bill before the
committee relating to the rank 01
naval engineers. Mr. Money tooli
part in the discussion, and though hii
voice was pitched as it usually Is it
controversial tone, be was in nowisi
excited. Mr. Money mado a state
ment that the surgeons were aftei
both rauk and command. ‘So,’ hi
added, smilingly, T take that back
not command, but rank.' ‘Any mat
who says that,’ said Mr. Hall, angrily
‘says what is not true.’ ‘You an
a d- liar,’ retorted Mr. Money
partly risiug from his chair
Mr. Money rose to his feet and Mr
Hall grabbed an ink well and hurlei
It at him 1 he blow behind the eai
staggered hint. Mr. Mouey, tliougl
staggered, also clutched an Ink wcl
and let It drive at Mr. Hall’a head, bu
the Missourian dodged and the miasih
flew harmlessly by and struck thi
wall opposite Had it struck Mr
Hull I believe it would have brain*
him. The two men then made foi
each other. Itolh of them made mo
tious as if to draw I heir weapons Mr
YViUuu of New Vork, a member of tin
naval committee, who was nresen
with the messenger and cleric, thei
rushed between the tueu and prevent
ed further trouble."

TWO PENSION BILLS.

Crashing Weight.
Wasiiiiiotom, April 'M. —The Presi
dent to-day sent to the Henate vetoes
, of two Henate pension bills. The first
wa* that of Charles K. Jones, a pho
tographer, which attracted considera
ble attention in the House. It la a*
follows:
"To the Henate: 1 return herewith

, 249, entitled. An act to grant a pen
sion to t harles K, Jones. The bene
ficiary named in this blit wa* a pho

where no battle was in actual pro

The other veto wa* in that of the
