JMSOUIOO.OOO A IMnllit l'roin tlm Wool
(inincm Senator rt Denounced In
Strong Words.
A Hitter Arraignment.
Washington, Jan. 1M. Senator War
ren of Wyoming addressed the Senate
to-day on his resolution culling atten
tion to the shrinkage in tho number
and value of farm animals and re
questing the finance committee to re
port appropriate legislation. The Sen
ator attributed the shrinkage to the
Wilsou bill, which, ho declared, had
caused a loss of SOT. 1,000,000 to the
American people in live stock in two
years. Tho talk that wool growers
were more prosperous um'er free wool
was preposterous. Tho elections of
1S;i.- indicated that after iS00 a corpo
ral's guard only of the faithful would
be left to mark the spot "where once
stood a triumphant, rampant Dem
ocracy lighting under the unpatriotic
black ling of Wilsonism tho emblem
of protection to foreign industries and
distress to our own. if the Molviuley
bill of Republican fame- was a 'hoo
doo" said Mr. Warren, "your own
Wilson bill has certainly been a con
spicuously' stomach trying 'Jonah.'"
The rebultof Republican and Dem
ocratic turiit policies Mr. Warren
summed up by saying that United
States live- stock interests had thrived
under Republican rnlu and had de
creased always, both in numbers and
value, under Democratic njlministru
tlons. As corresponding with our own
reat national shrinkage, lie pointed
out an Immense increase in tho busi
ness of foreign countries in our mar
kets and that, while slieep of the
1'nited States aro worth little mote
than one-half what they wore two
years ago, tho wool exportation from
England to America in laJ5 was nearly
triple that of 1831.
Mr. Warran in strong language de
nounced Senator Vest for excoriating
the .Supremo court for reversing the
precedent in tho income tax cases and
then himself (Vest) glorying in the
fact that thu economical law of a tariff
on wool had been, after eighty years,
overturned by tho Wilson bill, that
crowning Infamy that tho Senate llrst
pitied then endured then embraced,
lie closed by urging a change In the
un-American policy to stop the golden
drain by tho collection of gold for
imports.
IT) nullify srr:cii: paymknts.
Mr. Mills of Texas introduced a bill
to repeal tho refunding act of 1870 and
the specie payment resumption act of
1b7r. Mr. Mills said ho would call up
this bill to-morrow and seek a vote en
it.
A resolution by Mr. Perkins of Cali
fornia was agreed to, requesting tho
secretary of the interior to furnish In
formation as to tho extent of the
illicit tratllfi m liquor in Alaska and to
suggest remedial legislation.
Mr. Vilas of Wisconsin reported
favorably a bill to prevent the carry
ing in tho mails of obscene literature
from one state or territory to an
other. Mr. Call offered tho following: ''Re
solved, that a special committee of
seven Senators hhall i)ouppuiird who
-shall be charged with the duty of in
quiring into tho imprisonment of
Eugene V. Dobs for an alleged con
tempt of court, and who shall report
to tho Senate and recommend such
legislation as may be necessary for
the enforcement of tho law and pro
tection of citizens from arbitrary and
oppressive excess of judicial power."
Mr. Call said ho would call up the
resolution to-morrow.
It was disclosed at this point that
the l'ugh resolution for the payment
of bonds iu silver had lost its parlia
mentary status yesterday and was at
the foot of the calendar. Mr. l'ugh
protested that this was contrary to
his understanding. Mr. Hill said Mr.
l'ugh had been warned of this.
"I deny that statement," said Mr.
l'ugh.
"The senator is simply denying the
record," answered Mr. Hill, pointing
out how the resolution had lost its
place of precedence before the Senate,
lie added: "Tho senator (l'ugh) walked
6tra'ght into the opening."
"I can easily be trapped," responded
Mr. l'ugh, "by bueh skillful means as
those adopted by tho senator from
New York."
Mr. l'ugh sougUt to got his resolu
tion rcstorsd, but Mr. Hill objected to
each move, causing much amusement.
Mr. l'ugh finally gave notice that
lie would move to-morrow to restore'
tho resolution, adding: "The seuator
from Now York will not bo able to
avoid going on record on that resolu
tion." Mr. Warren was then rocngniz.cd
anil delivered tho speech given above.

patterned after tlioso before the Sen
cite were adopted and Mr. Quigg was
directed to report them to the House,
Nothing was done about Ambassador

San l-'iiANrisco, Jan. 21. The Ex
aminer has received tho following
telegram from President Krugcr in re
ply to a messago asking information
as to the status of the American min
ing men now imprisoned at 1'rotoria
for alleged participation in the upris
ing of the Uitlanders: "Everything is
quiet at present The Amorfenns aro
in no danger whatever They enjoy
the full protection of tho law like any
other foreigners, therefore there is
no need for protection from the
outside against any alleged revolution
ary move. Even If such protection
ugainst revolutionists were necessary,
which is not so, the Americans are
capable to take care of themselves.
The government regrets deeply that,
wliilst almost ail of tho Americans
took tho side of law and order, a very
few of them havo joined the revolu
tionary, so-called reform committee.
These, together with a majority, most
ly Jtritlsh, will bo tried according to
law. and justico will be accorded to
all without respect to nationality."
