WASHINGTON , May 17. [ Special Tclo-
gram.J It Is now understood among Morri
son's filunds that ho will call up thu tariff
bill In the house jitslassoonaaacouploinoro
of the nppiopilallon bills arc out of the way.
Jle Is not at all sure that the bill will pass ,
but ho Is determined to give It a fair chance.
Hois ix little nettled at the constant asscr-
tloim of the opponents of tlio hill that ho Is
ufi aid to call it up , and ho thinks , besides ,
that his chances aiu very good. Us gteat
dancer , he believes , lies In the attempt which
Is to bo made to strike out the enacting
clause. Morrison himself says that thoio-
poitsthathcis solng to let the bill so over
until the next .session without an clfort lo
call 11 up are not true.
THE MISSISSIPPI ci.AUsn.
A curious discussion has arisen among
members lulcicsted In llio river and harbor
bill , paitlcnlaily those Inteicstcd In the Mis
sissippi river appioprlatlons , icgarditiRlho
cffecl of llio action of Iho house In striking
out certain portions of the bill which placed
the expenditures for the Mississippi river In
the hands of the Mississippi river commis
sion. It was supposed at the lime that the
notion fairly knocked out thu Mississippi
river commission and placed the whole work
iilion that stream In charge of the war de-
pnitmcnt again. It Is now claimed , how
ever , that such Is not the case , but that by
subsequent bcctions of the hill and existing
law tlm commission Is continued In charge
of t he vt ork. L'\cn if It should not follow
that this is thu ease It Is ciultu piobablo that
thu senate may icstoiu thu Mississlpal river
commission clause ns It stood in the original
bill.

president will veto thu tiver and harbor bill.
It was about 815,000.000 in size when it got

it might bu about S' ' , UOO,000 latgur by thu time
it gets lo the president.
OI.KOMAltCIAUINn DOOMKT ) .
The house committee on agriculture is a
good deal disappointed at Its lallure to get
action last \\CCK on the bill taxing oleomar-
eailnc. It is liimly believed that thu bill will
icadllypass It it gets before the house. Thu
.senate committee liavlng it in chaigo has also
repotted the bill favorably , out as it
Is a nieasuio which affects revenues
tlm .senate cannot act upon it until it is acted
upon in the house. Them scums little doubt
of its becoming a law in a somewhat modi-
lied form whenever congtuss can getlimu lo

Ho said ho undcistood the bill bcforo

Her disabled to tnu o\tent of being nnablo to

Mr. Harris "I understand that you would
Ivo SS a month for the slightest injury and

Mr. Van Wyck "No , sir : no man shall bo

Theio should bo no disctlmination on ac

other gentlemen connected with the 1'an-
Klectrio and National Telephone companies.
Thu witness declined to comply with the de
mand for the reason that the subpoena was
lit the nature of a ding-net or seal eh war-
lant ; that It did not specifically dc.scilbo any
paitlcular messages , but sought to
discover whether any messages had been
sent or iccelved by eeitain parties. The wit
ness remarked that the scandalous use made
of messages produced by thu order ol the con
gressional committee in 1677 ought to satisfy
the commlttcu tliat no such demand should
be made. It was decided to consider thu
suljoct In secret session , and the witness
was excused , pending the decision of the
question whether thu committee should in
sist upon Its demands for the telegrams.

Tuotmt.i : NOT ovnn.
Secretary Ilotchklss , of thu Lumbermen's
jxchangu said this moiiiitig that ho was far
fiom believing that thu tiouble or Ihc sliikc
was over.
"None of the Bohemians are at work to
day. " ho said , "because the intimidating
tactics decided upon at the meeting yester
day have bcun entirely successful. At that
meeting , under nresbiue liom thu stock yaid
employes , it was icsolvcd lh.it no .Bohemian
should ictiirn lo woik on llio old scale , in
Hie lumber yards , because Ihoy were per
suaded tli.it , if they did , the packers would
compel their men lo follow suit. In such an
event the lumber woikers were assuied that
summary vengeance would be visited upon
them. It was also decided lhat
ovuiy Bohemian who leporled lor work to
day would bu marked fonpuntahmcnt. This
decision the wives ot tlio stillseis made
known to the wives of jsuch of the men as
were willing to work , and ten i tied them by
dcclaiingtlmt their husbands would inipeiil
their lives by disobeying the union. The In
fluence of the women has been successful in
cecplng the men idle to-day , and 1 am not
Moparedto say that tlio continuing effect of
t will not bo thu samo. I bcliovo Ihcio will
bu another pitched battle between Ihu pollco
and the strikers before the tiouble is settled.
It seems to mo that the Uoliemians aie bent
upon havinir It. "
SPOTTING TUn LEADERS.
From another sotuco equally authentic It la
learned lhat since the beginning of the strike
agents ot the lumbermen have been industri
ously engaged in spoltIns leaders In provok
ing disturbance , nnd 'when work is resumed
the mniked meiuwill'find that there aio no

INDICTING ANARCHISTS.
The specially imuortaut work Judge Ilog
crs had on hand to-day was the impaneling
of Iho May grand jury , which is lo consider
Iho cases of Haymarkct anarchists and the
allcscd bomb thiower.
' There will bo probably over seventy-five
witnesses examined bcfoio the grand jmy , "
said a well known state ofllcial to a repoitcr.
"It Is impossible to say for certain what tlio
lesnlt will be , but my Individual opinion is
that Spies , Parsons , Schwab and the other
inciteis lo outrage the lawlessness , will bo
Indicted for murder. Mv own opinion is
they should bo strung up , 'eveiyG - d -
ono of them. They aie , undoubtedly , guilty
as accessories before the fact. " "What do
you ihlnk of llio jury lhat has oecn diawn. "
"It could not bo a better one. You can bet
anaichy and murder will not receive much
quaitcr at the hands of these men. "

ciples of law Inculcate the doctrine that men
who teach riot , who inclto unlawful gather

Tlio led flag Is a public menace ,

The police have the right to suppicss these
people to prevent the commission of crime.
They have a right to quell all such dlslmb-
auces. And Iho police and Iho chief magis-
tiatoof ( Ills city did their duty when the
time came , and acted like men. Men have a
rlirht to sliikc. Tney have a right
to quit work It thuy please , but
when they go one step fmther and say that
others have not tlio light to work Ihey violate
the law and can bu punished. It Is not only
principals that may bo held responsible , but
accessoiles as well. Ho nr they who stand
Idly by alter having advised the violence thai
has been commuted , may be held equally to
blame with the principals. " The judge fhcii
dismissed the jury , who wont Into session.

Movements In Now York with reference to

push Grovcr Cleveland aside. Governor
Ulll's friends have succeeded to the control
of the party organization , which Manning
laid down to enter the treasury. Manning
was the ono man whoso grip was strong
enough to have retained this state for Cleveland -

dent's stock has been lowered lo Iho lowest

sided , and as everybody knows his tendency
forgoing to llio extreme limits In llio law ,
the facts following will easily bo under

William Engstcr was at that time a lad of

berne a fair character. At the Irial hn was
lold by uttoineys and otheis as Is under

ho would gain his ficedom. Ho Ihcrctoio
made a confession , Implicating Meyer and
Cole. The Judge in sentencing Ihom gave
thorn all liltctw years in the penitentiary ,
wlicie they slill remain. Meyer was an un
sophisticated ( lOimaii , always conMdcicd
honest , Coluwasa character of Ill-reputn

tmcd.
Much sympathy was expressed at the lime
of Iho Irl'al for young Kngster , as ho showed
plainly lhat Cole had pci.uadcd him into the

easily persuaded. A petition lias lateiy been

such a course would have a dtslurblng influ
ence upon the business Interests of the cnun-
ry. It Is reported that Mr. Gladstone
las 'replied to llio queen lhat ho
mistdlhsolveparllamenl unless Ihc majority
against the homo rule bill bu so giciit as to
ustlfy Us opponents In undcitaking the gov-
'rnmenl wilh a chance ofsucccedinjj in pass-
nir Irish legislation.
Mliiisteriallsis say that In the event of the
bill being cairicd by a small maioritr , or bclmr
defeated by a small majority , parliament will

evening the subject of a dissolution of par-
laiuunl was on cvuiybody's lips. Tlio see-
oud week in July was mentioned as the
time when a general election would most >
probably bo held.
WHAT Iin MAY DO ,
On motion of Mr. George Lafevre , liberal , '
the debate was ndiouinud until to-mono w.
John 111Ight was piesent at the session to
night. It isiepoitcd Unit he will submit a
motion , which will bo acceptable to thu gov
ernment , postponing thu consideration ot the
lomi ) iiiiu question. It is believed Unit
lirleht has wiittcn lo Gladstone that unless
the bill Is wlthdiawn ho will speak and vote
against It.
