jx , Jan. 24. Th * amendments to
the ircn schedule today shared the same fate
as those to the ooal schedule yesterday.
They wore overwhelmingly defeated , and
iron ore remains upon the free list. The re-
mainderxjf the afternoon was spent in tbe
discussion of amendments looking to tbe
free admisuion of machinery used in the
manufacture of cotton goods.
Just before the house adjourned the advo
cates and opponents of the Income tax upon
ihe democratic side were arrayed arainst
each other , the latter atlemptlng to prevent
Mr. McMillin from reading the internal
revenue bill to the house.
Aided by ICxpali lean * .
The republicans Joined hands \vith
the Income lasers and defealed the small
band of democrats who pledged themselves
to use every effort to prevent the internal
revenue hill , containing the income tax , from
being placed on the Wilson bill as arider. .
Mr W ilson , cha'rman ' of the commillee ,
who is in sympathy with them , allowed ihe
debate on the Robbins amendisetil to run on
without interruption today , it was said , for
the express purpose of consuming time , so
thai Ihe committee anendmenls which he
has lo offer will , when he again la es me
floor , prolong Ihe debate until Saturday
night , and thus shut out the possibility of
the internal revenue bill being offered as an
amendment lo Ihe Wilson DilL A great deal
sf bitter feeling exists , however , and should
the program be followed it will unquestion
ably Icaa to charges of bad faith.
At tbe opening of the session this morning ,
the speaker announced the appointment of
Messrs. Cogswell and Compton as directors
of the Columbian hospital for women.
The senate amendments to the joinl reso
lution authorizing justices of the sunre.no
ecarl of tbe Dislrict of Columbia to have the
privileges of the congressional library ac-
rcrded justices of the supreme court of the
United States were , on motion of ilr. Blair
of .New Hampshire , agreed to.
Theliouae then resolved itsalf into com
mittee of the whole for the further consid
eration of the tariff bill. Two "hours and
fifteen minutes for the debate on the iron
ore schedule remained.
Mr. Taylor of Tennessee offered as an
omendment to the panning amendment of
Mr. Oatcs , placing a duty nf 40 cents a tenon
on ore , the provisions of the McKinley law
which makes the duty 75 cents per ton.
Opened tlie Debate.
Mr. Beltzhoover of Pennsjlvania opened
the debate with a sensational denunciation
of the Wilson bill. Every compromise on a
question of principle , he said , involved a
surrender of rishl und had ended in ignomln.
ious lailure , Hisiory was filled with striking
illustrations of this fact. If the Wilson
bill became a law it would bo a failure. Pre
tending to be neither prelection nor tree
trade , it has the faults of both , and the
merits , of neither. Pretending to protect
one industry in his districl ( steel ) , it dis-
\crimiuates against another ( chains ) . He
was in laver of protection to American la
bor. [ Republican applause. ] Every dem
ocratic platform froui t he foundation of the
government until 18112 had declared for pro-
tion to American labor.
"How about ihe plalform of IS7G ? " inter
rupted Mr. Hall of Missouri. "Did not it
denounce the protection system ? "
"I mean , " replied Mr. Beltzhoovcrthat
aU the platform declarations of the party
tended in that direction. "
"Were you not elected on tbe platform of
1S92 , which declares protection to be a fraud
and a robbery f" asked Mr. Goldzier of
Illinois.
"I was. " replied Mr. Boltshoover , "but I
was elected upon it as construed by Mr.
Cleveland and the New ' York World. "
fLaughtcr.j
j Ho went on to explain thai the New York
I / World maintained throughout the campaign
1 that the platform had been adopted by"u
few radicals , reinforced by the "snapper"
delegaiion from New York and others op
posed to Mr. Cleveland's nomination.
What is the best democratic authoritj' , "
asked Mr. Johnsoa of Ohio , "the New York
World or the democratic piaiform ? "
Ami the Republicans Apjiluudc'it ,
"The platform adopted by the platform
committee , " replied Mr. Beluhooverwas
ndonted by the vote of forty-three out of
forty-four states. "
Proceeding he declared ! amid the plaudits
of the republican side , that he would vote
for prelection for any industry that came
lute competition with goods manufactured
abroad.
With Bob Ingersoll. " he concluded , ' -I
would ralher be right and in boll than wrong
tnd in heavon. "
Mr. Cumminirs said that as a democratic
delegate from New York he dusired lo deny
the statement that the New York delegation
had voted for the tariff plank in Chicavo in
order to defeat Mr. Cleveland's nomination.
" \ \ e voted for it , " he declared vehemently ,
' Ixvauie it was the platform upon which
Samuel J. TUdcn was elected president in

lu conclusion he made a plea for a revetrtK

Mr. Tawney , republican , of Minnesota de
nounced the proposition to jnU iron ore on
the fre list.
Mr. Baldwin , detnocrrtt. of Minnesota , who
represents the Duluth district , in reply to
Mr. Tawney said he represented the largest
iron ore district in the world , and fe-v men
in Minnesota anticipated the ruin and dis
tress predicted on the other side. With free
ore , he said , we ccmld compete with tae
world. If ore were made free DnlulH wouid
become n great ore center greater than
Pittsburg. In demanding free iron ore he
represented the V.r > OO.OiK ) people of Minne
sota. His colleague represented the two
mine owners.
Mr. Foreman , democrat , of Illinois made a
speech supporting the bill and predicting
political exile for the democrats wha op
posed the present reform me.isure.
.Simpson .Advocate * Tree Iron.
Mr. Simpson followed in advocacy of free
iron ore.
Mr. Clark , democrat , of Missouri followed
with a characteristic speech , denouncing
those democrats who were figuticg the Wil
son bill.
Mr. Gear , republican , of loxva followed in
a vigorous speech against the bill , aud was
succeeded by Mr. Bynum of Indiana , who
devoted souie time to explaining the manner
in which , through the instrumentality of the
Protective Tariff leasruo of New York , pro
tests against the \\ilson bill were prepared
and democratic members were flooded with
postal cards.
Mr. Wilson closed the debate on the iron
schedule. Every argument made for plac
ing coal on the free list applied to iron ore.
The Development of tne iron ore industry
during the last few years ojtstripped any
thing the world had ever known.
He-salt of the Voting.
The votes were then taken on pending
amendments , first upon that of Mr. Taylor
to that of Mr. Gates , to restore the rates of
cxlstinc laws on ore. . > cents per ton. Only
one democrat , Mr. Swanson of Virginia ,
voted with the republicans in favor ot this
proposition and it was iost by a vote of 137
to 07.
The other vote was upon Mr. Gates'
amendment to make the duty 40 cents.
This shared the fate of its predecessor al-
ILough many democrats , including most of
the democratic members from Alabama ,
West Virginia aud Pennsylvania Toted for
it , along with the repuijlicans from the iron
producing states , the rest of the republi
cans adhering to thair policy and refusing to
vote , but when the announcement was made
that it vras lost. 59 to 109 , they did not make
the point of no qSorum.
Mr. Jlobbins , democrat , of Alabama then
offered as an amendment , to add to the para
graph placing agricultural implements on
the free list , "all articles used in th < 5 manu
facture of cotton , including machinery and
equipments. "
Mr. Payne offered an amendmc-ut to the
amendment , a reciprocity provision in con
nection with the paragraph placing agri
cultural articles on the free iisL
Mr. Wilson made the point of order that
the amendment was not germane. The chair
overruled the point.
Arc-atncnt. for Itecproclty. !
Mr. Payne insisted that if the American
market vras to be open to the free entry of
Canadian or other agricultural implements
these couutries should open their mar
kets to similar articles from this country.
This amendment was in line with the
famous amendment adopted by tbe commit
tee with reference to petroleum. Canada
levies a duty of S5 per cent on agricultural "
implements. Replying to Mr. Wilson's
statement yesterday concerning the re
ciprocity clause of the Canadian tariff , he
denied that free coal wosld compel them ,
under that provision , to admit our coal free.
Mr. Brecicinridge , democrat , of Arkansas
said the reciprocity proposition was basert on
a desire to assist our producers , bat it , failed
to take into consideration our consumers.
Mr. Draper , republican , of Massachusetts
spoke agzinst the amendment , Mr. Hopkins ,
republican , of Illinois followed in the same
line.
line.Mr.
Mr. Hare , democrat , of Ohio presented
and advocated an amendment to tbo sub
stitute to transfer agricultural implements
to the dutiable list at ! C > per cent ad valorem ,
with the provision that they snail ba ad
mitted free of duty from such countries as
impose no import duties on lilio articles from
the United States.
Mr. Livingston , democrat , o' Florida sup
ported the Kobbins amendment.
Mr. Wells , democrat , of Wisconsin opposed
certain features.
Closnl by .Mr. McMcs.
The debate was closoa by Mr. Sk-ilos ,
democrat , of New Vork. The proposed amend
ment was in the direction of all others
adopted thus far , the extension of the free
list. \ \ here is the revenue to come from ! he
askeJ. The deficiency was already
mountain high and now it was proposed to
still further incroustrlt. What did it mean ;
To force an income tax. He desired to say
here and now that nenas irreconcilably
opuosed to it and wouid Vote against any
bill in which an income tax was incorporated.
At the conclusion of General Sicnles'
speech the first struggle over the in
come tax was precipitate and the momen
tary flash showoa the depth of feeling
within the democratic ranks upon this sub-
j3ft and portended the fierce ooailict which
will ensue when it comes up for considera
tion.

If the khedive persists in his present atti
tude , it may even l ad to his removal from
the throne.
The protest which Lord Cromer , the
British consul general and Minister plenipo
tentiary'made to the khedive , accompanied ,
it is said , by a demand for au apology , was
wade on the asroct orders of the Earl ot
Bosebery , the secretary of fctate for foreign
affairs.
Kaglancf H IJctfrmln .
It is now stated here that Lord Cromer
has been instructed to ask the kbedive lo
dismiss Herr Pashivi. On ihe other hand ,
it is stated the khedive has most em
phatically refused to submit to tsuch
a public humiliation , and it is believed by
ihose who know ihe khedive lhat he will re
sist to the utmost the alleged insulting
demands made by the British government.
England is equally determined that the re
pute of the British officials and administra
tion is directly concerned in the dispute , and
if the khedive remains on the throne , he
will have to make some sort of a retrac
tion.
tion.When
When the sirdar of the Egyptian army ,
Brigadier General Parha , telegraphed to
Lord Cromer , the British minister plenipo
tentiary at Alexandria , the khedive had un
reservedly irilicised the discipline and effi
ciency of the Egyptian troops , Lord Cromer
imineJlately telegraphed to Lord Roseberry ,
with the result that he was instructed to
take the action already referred tola this
dispatch and which amounts in substance
to a demand for an apology from the khe
dive , under threat of removing him from the
throne if be does not do so.

The English population of Cairo is greatly
excited at the present aspect of ailairs. and
it is distinctly said that the kcedive in doing
what he did acted for a selfish purpose , on
direct promptings , carefully weighed and
discussed , and coming from a foreign power
antagonistic to England , and especially
so far as to tne occupancy of Egypt by Eng
land is concerned. It is understood the for
eign power referred to as having been be
hind the young khedive.ln the attitude he
has assumed toward the Egyption troops
and their English officers is no less than
France , and thai the khedive has been as
sured thai he will receive the support of
France should England make any deter
mined effort to oust htm from the throne.

BERLIN , Jan. 24. It is reported today in
the lobbies of the Reichstag tbat Prince
Bismarck will arrive in Berlin on Friday ,
January 25 , in order to enable him to be
present at the emperor's birlhday celebra-
lion on Jannary 27.
Ii is now definitsly announced that Prince
Bismarck will arrive in Berlin at noon on
Friday nest , The prince will alight at the
Lehrte or Hanoverian railroad station ,
where he will be received with great pomp.
The route from there will be through the
Brandeburg gate at the west end of the
Cntcr der Linden , to tbe imperial
castle. Special trains will be run to
Berlin on Friday and Saturday , and most
of the cities in southern Germany will be
decorated. Berlin wdl also be decorated
and illuminated at night ; the students have
announced their intention of turning oat en-
masse , and windows along tno route leading
to the castle from tha railroad depot are
being rented at high prices. Different
municipal bodies and very many of the Ber
lin societies are preparing to honor tbe
chancellor , who , on his way lo Ihe castle ,
will be surrounded by mihlary and princely
pomp of the most elaborate description. In
short , the entry of Prince Bismarck into
Berlin after so loug an absence promises to
draw immense crowds of people to this city
and to be one of the mosi elaborate evenls
ever witnessed in Ihe German capital.
The emperor has addressed a second letter
to Bismarck thanking him for his accept
ance of the wine which Ihe eaiperor scnl
him and for his announcement of his iu-
lenlion of visiting him find paying his
respects. In his letler the emperor also
invites Prince Bismarck to attend the im
perial birthday fetes. It is reported that
Count von Waldersee proceeded to Fried-
richsruhe at the emperor's desire directly
after the ruconeiliation was decided. One
accouni says tne emperor intended to make
.1 few advances to Bismarck on Christmas ,
but delayed nisflnal decision until last week.

LONDONJan. . 24. Tbe Admiralty authori
ties have completed tLj new ship building
plans calling for the expenditure of 7,000-
000 ana have placed orders for new fifty-ton
guns to supersede Hie sixty-seven ton
breechloaders , which are the principal
armament of the e ist'sc battle ships.
In addition , Ihe armmeal and h'ttincs of
the war fahins now in hand are being rabidly
pushed forward at the different dockyards
and in the private sal { yards where govern
ment ships are being constructed.
The new style of armament is based upon
the principle that tbe next naval war will
be a tet of maneuver' g skill and that coal
endurance will play prominent part in
such tactics. As a result tbe new ironclads
will be superior to any of the existing ships
ia regard to coal capacity , thus rendering
them independent of co.tlms stations at a
critical moment.

o'clock last night and eicht of the nine In
mates were burned to death. Only one
woman. Mrs. Ittbbara , escaped from the
burning building and pave the alarm to
Steward Halcomb , who was in the mam
building adjacent. It was then too lute to
save the insane people , and the main build

steward says he banked the fires in the
furnace about 9 o'clock and docs not know
bow the fire originated unless from a defec

It \ aB a Tire Trap.
The pqor farai , on which is tbe insane
hospital , is located seven miles from this
city and word concerning the disaster did
not reach here until 10 o'clock
this morning. The building burued
was an old two-siory frame structure
which was as dry as tinder. To add lo the
inflammable nature of the place many of the
partition walls were padded with cotton and
some of ihe bed clothing was of collon bat
ting three inches thick. This was be
cause only the incurable insane who had been
returned from the state asylum were kept
there. These patieals were nearly all violent
lent and the great amount of cotton padding
was to prevent them injuring themselves.
The building was heated by a furnace
whictiwas last summer condemned by a
local expert as unsafe , but no attention had
apparently been paid to this warning and
last ntsht s tire undoubtedly re
sulted from neglect to replace ihe
furnace with a batter one. It is thoughn to
be certain thai the fire started from a de
fect in the furnace , as there were no stoves
in any of the roams and great care was er-
ercised that no matches should be allowed
in the building.
> "otmil Too Liite.
Mr. Holcomb , the steward , says he first
knew of the fire when alarmed by Mrs. Hib-
bard. the only inmate who escaped from the
ouilding. He was in the main building
which stands but three feet distant from
the "crazy' ' houss. When he got out doors
flames were bursting from all the
-windows of the frame structure
-and it was a mass of flames inside.
He burst opan a door , but was driven back
by the flumes which in a few minutes had
bamed the building to the ground. The
main building was saved by pouring on
water vrbirh the heat of the fire melted
from a huge snos- drift alonside Ihe build
ing. No one saw the eicht people who
were burned to dealh , and whether they
made any effort to escape can never be
known. There seems to have been no at
tendant of any kind in the building where
the insane people were locked up.

gan at the Shorehani this morning.
The Portland Oregon Chamber of Com
merce had offered a resolution urging upon
congress to take such action as will secure
the construction of the Nicaraguan canal.
The consideration of the resolution was
made a special order for Thursday after
noon and Senator Morgan of Alabama will
be itivited to address the convention.
A proposition that a bimiUr invitation be
extended to tne members of the cabinet pro
voked much discussion , Mr. Wilder Smith
of New York mating the point that such an
invitation was perversive of the rules of
etiquette which prevailed.
He thought the cabinet would not care to
listen to Mr. Morgan's remarks , however
eloquent they might be , and added thai if
Ihe board wished lo communicate with the
president and officials they should visit
them and not send them an invilalion. The
proposition * rns withdraxvn.
The resolution providing that emigrants of
good moral conduct and moral condition be
admntoa io the United States , whether
under contract or otherwise , was over
whelmingly defeated ,
A resolution was adopted providing for a
committee to call on the president , the sec
