There waa a lively setclon of tbe hou.sc today , at which tbo policy of Speaker Reed and tha rcpubll- c-ti majority were again made the subject ot attack ! ) by member * ot Ihe minority. Mr. Hlclmrdfcon , democrat of Tennessee , and Mr. Slniison | , populist of Kansas , led the on slaught for the minority. The majority posi tion was ably defended by Mr. Henderson , republican of Iowa , and Mr. Grosvencr , re publican of Ohio. The appeal of Mr. Lewis , democrat of Washington , taken Isst Thurs day , from the decision of the chair that a resolution relating lo foreign affairs did not conptllutc a question of privilege , was laid on the table and after the skirmish over Ihe methods of procecdure three special or- dcra were successively adopted , by two ot which the senate bills mak ing a special appropriation for Ihe government printing otflces and for granting the secretary of the navy aulhorlty lo con tract with any two vessels to carry contri buted suppllco to India were passed. The olher provided for Ihe consideration of the Fryo bill to prevent collisions upon harbor , rivers and inland waters of the Unlled Slales , connccled with the ocean. But Mr. Payne , In charge of the latter bill , was \ forced to abandon It for the day to avoid the point of no quorum. The conference report on the sundry civil bill was adopled. The compromise rcporl to the revocation of Presi dent Cleveland's forest reservation excited some comment , but the opposition was nut carried to the point of a division. RICHARDSON OPENS UP. Mr. Richardson opened the attack on the Inaction of the house and protested vigor ously lagalnst the present method of doing buElnecs. "Here wo are , " ho said , "with our bands tied , with no committees , none of the conveniences or none of the necessities of legislation ; nolnlug on Ihe committee on rules , which dictates what wo shal. do and shall not do. The house never was In such a dilapidated and disorganized condition for such a length of time. " "How long was It before the commltlees \vero appointed In Ihe Forty-second con- Kress ? " asked Mr. Dalzell , republican of Pennsylvania. "Congress net on the fourth of March and the committees were appointed in Decem ber , " replied Mr. 'Richardson , "but congress was-In session only four days. " "That Is the fact I wanted to bring Out , " said Mr. .Dalzell. Mr. Richardson proceeded to recall the time which had elapsed In each congress be fore commltlees were appointed , showing , as ho said , that the period had varied from fifteen to thirty days. Mr. Simpson , popullat of Kansas , remarked upon the spectacle presented by the house "because ) of the retusal of the speaker to obey the rules and appoint the commlltees. .We must come , " ho continued , "to the com mittee on rules ns supplicants. Over 3,500 bills have been Introduced at this seeslon , 1.GG5 for the relief of the old toldlera. The republicans claim to be the special guardians of the old soldier. Why don't they consider these measures ? Then there Is the bank ruptcy bill , for the passage of which there Is a great demand Ihroughoul tbe country. " "Is there any greater demand now thar there waa In the last congress ? " Interrupled Mr. Watson , republican of Pennsylvania. "There Is , " retorted Mr. Simpson , "be- ceuso the prosperity you promised has no : materialized and the people now seek the relief you promised the tariff would give them through the bankruptcy courts. ' ( Laughter. ) Mr. Terry , democrat of Arkansas , con- trlbutcd some brief remarks lo Ihe debale In which he described Ihe majorlly as hav ing lain down and been "bucked and gaged' by Ihe speaker. HENDERSON DEFENDS REED. Mr. Henderson Ihen came forward wllh a ralhcr elaborate defense of Ihe speaker and the course of Iho majorlly generally. Ho eald Ibat the majority otood ready to finish the work It was called here to perform whenever It came from the other end of the capttol. Gentlemen seemed to forget , he said , that a new congress assembled March 4 , called together by a patriotic president to meet the condition In the treasury. In nine days Ihe house had scnl a bill which wouK furnish ample revenue and give an ample balance annually to the treasury. The ma jority had discharged Its duty , which was j > erhan.3 , the chief reason H did not meet the approval of the minority. "Why this hell in a teapot ? " bo nsked "this boiling over from the realms of Kan- In reply to the criticisms of Mr. Simpson ho said it was In a sense true thfit the mem bers of the coinmltlco on rules were the speaker's creatures. But. said he , e\-ery rule was submitted to the house for Its sane tlon. If the house was "bucked and gagged" It was bucked and gagged by Ittelf lie Inveighed agalnrl the abuse hurled at tb speaker , which ho declared was nellhe honorable nor consistent with ulgh dignity Ho defended tbe speaker In not appointing committees. "It takes time to ascertain the predilections and capabilities of members , ' esl 1 he. "Take the gentleman " from Kansas Imagine trying to pick out a "place where h could bo useful to hU country , when everj time he opens his mouth lie makes th jiroblem more difficult. " ( Laughter and ap jilaUBB on Ihe republican nlde. ) In cor.cluf.lon Mr , Henderson mh\ \ the houa was waiting to ftnlah the work It came her to perform. Meantime , he said. It wouli transact luch buslnesa aa might become ur gent. gent.Mr. . Groevenor , republican of Ohio , fol lowed In a similar strain , putting the re publican ! In an excellent humor by hi witty comments on Iho minority leadership The other side , Mr. Grosvenoreald , was treat "ing thd majority wllh great unfalruera. OIJOSVBN'OR FACETIOUS. ' "Every now and then , " eald he , "the spring something new on ua In the ehaj > ot a new leader ( laughter ) . When the ta entcd young. Texan ( Bailey ) , who Inherit * ' bis leadership rather than earned it , wa in command , a little lUttery and a few Kind words was sufficient and we got alon .very well ( laughter ) , Of course. " he con tinned , "wo had come trouble with tbe dls appointed leader from Tennessee , wh Crumbled a good deal. But we got used t thai. Hut when the great leader froi JUniag ( Simpson ) suddenly flashed upon th liortion and wun * the minority Into olid philanx , I thought perhaps God A mighty had decided to wreck th democratic party under ' his k der blp , Bu toe dropped out.

I have * not examined bis creden'Ul yej , ud don't know , uhsm aa r pru nta n this contest. I don't know whether ho III be purported , aa his leadership has not et progressed enough to set a vote. " Branching Into the subject of criticism of he speaker hJ said he had nothing but con- cmpt for a man who would abuse the peaker , who In virtue of his position could ot defend hlmaclf. "Fire gun paper balls vcr here at us , " he cried , "we can answer hem. " Mr. Orosvcnor spokn of the words of the wild , senseless , Imbecile , " going to the ountry from a certain quarter ( evidently eferrlng lo Senator Morgan's speech In the senate ) . Ho ald It ought to be rebuked. The IJea that because n majority of the ions" eaw fit to adjourn three days at a Ime congress was not In session , he charcc- erlred as ridiculous and referred to the uthor of thla "discovery" as one whose olce pounded "so sweet to him that he lied the air with It by the month. " Mr. Slmreon , replying lo Mr. Groavenor , aid Iherc was no need of leadership ot Ihe ilnorlly tidp , s "Ihey were all leaders over ere. " They were nol like sheep who hade o be led over the fence every day by the leidlng billy goat. ' Mr. Simpson allempted to read from Sen- tor Morgan's speech but the speaker would ol permll him lo do so. Comment on Ihe roceedlngs In Ihe olher house , the speaker said , would lead lo disputes and Inlerfcre vlth Ihe harmony that should prevail be- ween the Iwo houses. At 4:30 : the house adjourned till Thursday. SK.VATI2 WO11KS O.V THE TARIFF. Vdoiitx Crockery , CilimH , Stnttc and Mate Schciltilt'H ivlth I.lttlc Uelinte. WASHINGTON , June 1. The eenate made ; oed progress on the tariff bill today , ad- anclng to Ibe Important metal schedule. ) urlng the day Ihe paragraphs covering marble and slone , china , glass , brick and til. 6 were computed with a few minor excep- lons. Messrs. Vest and Jones or Arkansas n behalf of tbo minority ot the finance com mittee , propcsed numerous amendments which were defeated by majorities of eight o fourteen. The votes were on party lines n the main , although Messrs. Rawltns and White , democrats , voted with the republi cans to Increase the rate on onyx and Mr. McEnery , democrat , voted with the republi cans against Mr. Jones' proposition for a reduction of the rates on china. .As a sequel to Ibe recent sensational epech of Mr. Tillman , Mr. Smllh of New Jersey ese to a quesllon of personal privilege , vhlle the larltl debate was proceeding , and nade a brief but pointed denial of all specu- allen In slock , either recently or at any time when sugar ! was the subject of leglria- : lon. Mr. Tlllraan was among those who icard the denial , but he made no comment. The new senator from Soulh Carolina , John L. McLaurln , who succeeded the late Senator Earle , was sworn In at the opening of the session loday. This establishes the personnel of Ihe senate as it will remain for some time , viz : Republicans , 13 ; democrats , 34 ; populists , 7 : silver repub- "Icans , 5 ; vacancy , 1 , ( Oregon ) ; total , SO. Mr. Mason , republican of Illinois , submitted a petition from the National Business league urging Immediate and effective action on the icncllug tariff bill and stating that this he general sentiment of business Interest ? . The tariff bill was taken up immedlately aftcr the disposal of the routine business , he propcsed committee amendments to para graph i)0 ) , chlca , etc. , leaving the rates as reported by tho. bouse , viz : decorated GO per cent ad valorem , undecorated 65 per cent , jelng < indcr consideration. Mr. Jones of Arkansas moved lo reduce these rates to 35 and 30 per cent respectively. Without debate a vote was taken and the proposed amendments were defeated yeas 23 , najs 31. Messrs. McEnery and Cannon voted with the republicans In the negative , and Messrs. rrte ( Kan sj and Heitfeld , with the demo crats in the affirmative. In other respects : he vote was on party Hues. The paragraph was amended to omit clock cases and waa then agreed lo. Before leaving Ihe paragraph Mr. Vest .fit Missouri stated briefly lhat the effect of the rates will be absolutely prohibitory on the rades of china and crockery in ordinary lousehold use. The committee amendments were with drawn also on the paragraphs covering , "all other china , not specifically provided "for , " eavlng the house rates at GO for decorated and 65 for undecoraled. Mr. Jones again offered an amendment similar to bis former one. He supported It In a speech , stating that the producers claimed to be dong - ng a prosperous business. Mr. Sewell , republican , of New Jersey , an swered , reading a stalement showing that many potteries had failed and a large num ber of pottery workers were out of work as a result of the present low rates. The Jones amendment was disagreed to , yeas 21 , najs 32. Mr. Heltfeld voted In the affirmative with the democrats , and Messrs. Cannon and McEnery in the negative with tbe republicans. Tha committee offered a substitute , which was agreed to , on the paragraph covering like , glazed or unglazed. It is practically the e < amd aa the house paragraph. Paragraph 02 , covering articles composed ot earth and mineral substances , was taken up. and Mr. Caffery of Louisiana offered an amendment reducing the rate from 35 lo 20 per ctnt on undecoraled ware. The Caffery amendment was defated. 19-26. Mr. Heltfeld voted with Ihe democrats In Iheaffirmative and Mr. Jones of Nevada with tbe republicans- the negative.

Mr. Vcot's amendment was disagreed to , yeas 21 , nays 29 , The paragraph was then agreed to as reported. The consideration of Ihe bill proceeded from Ihe poltrv reached at tbe last f-casio ; ) viz : Paragraph 105 , relating to spectacles eyeglasses , goggles , etc. Mr. Vest opposed the proposed rates , tay- ins they ranged from G5 to 1BO per cent on articled of necessity. POOR FOREIGN GOODS. Mr. Plait of Connecticut urged that the low priced foreign goods were eo poor that they should be excluded outright by duties up to 300 per cent it ncntl be. Mr. Aldrlch argued that low priced specta cles from abroad were BO poor that it vewli be of advantage/ exclude Ihem from use la this counlry. Mr , While of California said Ibis was the flrsl time. Ihe "sanllary" argument had been used In support of a high tariff , and Mr Caffery declared thai the American people did. not ask thai Ihelr bpectaclcs be tried l.y Mr. Aldrlch. Mr. White offered an amendment substi tuting Ihe rates of the present law Mr Whltc'a amendment was defeated and the paragraph was agreed lo as reported , At this point , 2:30 : p. m. , Senator Smith of New Jersey rose to a question of persotia privilege and made the following statement rradlug from manuscript , Ho said ; "Mr President During my ab eeiiro from the tenaie the other day I ascertained from the record ths lu a very remarkable deliverance by the senator from South Carolina ( Mr Tillman ) he became epooior for a newtpa per clipping In which my name -was men Honed In connection with the schedule in the pending tariff bill. "It is only necessary for me to say tha the statement In the newspaper clipping in question Is absolutely and unqualifiedly uu true. I have not during ihi& session of con grcsi bought or told directly or lnlltccll > a single iuare of sugar clock < ior at an time prior to this when any leghlatlo affecting the value of sugar or sugar stock was. pending.

HELENA. Mont. , June 1. Specials from Miles City , the nearest town in Montana to ho Cheyenne Indian troubles , say the BlUmtlon , at the agency continues critical. 'nmlllcB ' who resided near the seat of the trouble continue to flock to Miles City. H s reported that Sioux Indians from Dakota live como to the agency , and that runners have been sent to Invite more Sioux to join them on the war trail. Senator Carter will ask President McKln- ley that Indian Agent Slouch be Instructed not to Interfere with the sheriff's posse and that the military authorities support them In case the Cheyenncs resist the ar rest of the Indian , "Llttlo Whirlwind , " known also as Stanley , a graduate of Car- lele. who admits the murder of Sheep- icrdcr Hoover. Sheriff Gibus and Deputies Smith and Winters should arrive among the Cheyenncs Tuesday morning with warrants for the three Indiana and the agent , which they will at tempt to serve. White Hull's band of warriors , number- .ng 125 , who escaped from the agency Friday night , arc In the hills on the Tongue river , near Ashland , and this will be the scene of the first blcodshcd , should there be any. The settlers are not as well armed as the Indiana , though arms and ammunition are being forwarded as rapidly as possible. MIGHT EASILY PROVOKE TROUBLE. WASHINGTON , June 1. The official re port of the troubles among the Cheyenne ; ndlans in Montana , dated May 25 , reached he Indian bureau today from Captain Slouch , In charge of the Tongue Illver agency. It confirms the Washington dis patches of the Associated Press yesterday , attributed the trouble to Ihe murder ot a shcepherder , and Indicates that the motive of the murder was to prevent the herder from giving testimony as to an alleged slaughter of beef which he witnessed. An Investigation will bo made Immediately. The agent reports that Intense excitement exists among the settlers and that there Is a liability of further trouble. He says there are a great many bloodthirsty young men among these Indians and that if the set- llers and Ihe young Indians should meet trouble would be the result. Tor the peace and safety of all concerned he advises the stUIonlug of two troops of cavalry in the neighborhood. A request was made to the adjutant general of the mili tary department for a detachment of ar tillery. If a mounted party could be seen frequently on different parts of the- reserva tion It would be of great benefit , In the opinion of the agent. The report says that on May G the agent was. Informed of the disappearance of a sheepherder In the employ of Mr. Bar- ringer , whose ranch Is on the Tongue river. A search party was organized by a cousin of the herder on May 22 , and general help asked. The settlers on the Rosebud and Tongue rivers constituted the search party. On May 24 Indian police were Rent to search , and the body was found three-quarters of n mile from the camp of the herder and about three miles north of the reserva tion. The murder undoubtedly was com mitted by Indians , and it has exasperated the settlers throughout the country and they are crying for Justice and retribution. The man was an Inoffensive hunchback and he lias been. ar. object of sport for the Indians. The carcasses of the slaughtered beet were discovered near-by. In this connection. It IB stated that only a few cattle belonging lo the settlers have been killed by the In dians during the past winter and spring ; two near the agency , a few on Tongue river and two near Stebbins creek ; total , not nearly so large as hertofore. REQUEST FOR CAVALRY. The Interior department will make a for mal request to the War department to sta tion cavalry at the camp and the agent will bo Instrucled to use every effort to se cure the punishment of the perpetrators of the crime. Senator Carter has been appealed to in behalf of the settlers' alleged rights , but lie has replied , counseling moderation among the whites. County Attorney T. J. Porter wired the senator from Miles City that Agent Slouch ought to be suspended im mediately for resisting state officers serving processes and for driving the sheriff from the agency. It was stated that the situation wae serious , and that bloodshed would re sult. If the agent Is Instructed not to re sist the sheriff's posse , ho added , a con flict will bo avoided , though the county et- torney regarded an outbreak as certainly Imminent. SAN FRANCISCO , June J. News from the Cheyenne agency is meager. The arrest of Indians by civil authorities will be attempted today , but the result will probably not be known before tomorrow. A genuine scare no doubt exists among settlers In the val- ftje contiguous to the reservation. State officials believe the situation exaggerated , but it Is believed preparations should be made to gvard against an outbreak by hot headed yourig Indians. Sensational reports In regard to the killing of ettleri > sent out by correspondents are entirely without foun dation. _ MI5.V WHO KOUOIIT AS OFFICKUS. Qiiiiilminlul Conference of the Leurliui OIIIMIN Today. DETROIT , June 1. Men who distinguished themselves as army officers during the civil war are arriving to atttnd the quadrennial conference ot tbo Loyal Legion , which be gins Its sessions tomorrow. The members of tbo conference consist of six representatives from each of the twenty state commanderles. Rear-Admiral Gherardl , 0 , S. N. , will pre side. Tbo admiral arrived at 9 o'clock this evening with a company of members from Pennsylvania , New York and other eastern states. Among the Important questions to ho acted upon will be that of deciding the date of the ending of the war. According to the laws of the Loyal Legion the war ended In 1S65 and an application for membership is treated from that standpoint. The supreme court , however , In a decision la an army payment case , decided that the war ended August 30 , 1S66 , and It is proposed to change the order' ; ? laws to conform to the decision. Such a change , affecting eligibility of many persons - sons to membership , will be made with cau tion , but many of the states have Instructed their representatives to favor the change. Two other important cnanges propose the wiping out of class distinction In the ic m- bershlp. and tbo admission to tbe order of other than tbe oldest eons of army oftUcrs. At present the membership lu composed of companies of the first and second daises , the latter being chosen froiv. the eldest sons ol thoio entttlej to membership aa companies of the first class. Betides the regular sessions there will be several social functions and excursions. Wednesday evening there " 111 be a banquet , on which occasion it Is expected over 400 guests will be present. * Moi tMiirntN of fleenu AV clf , June 1.

Harmon Bross , Lincoln , super intendent , en "Congrcstlonal Home Mis sionary ' Work In NcWasXa. " was made public this morning. It was as follows : Nlnety-lhrcc workers In all have labored under Ihe auspices of Ihe society within the stale for a part or all of the jcar. These have supplied 128 churches and forty-three out-stallons , making nearly 200 communi ties In all reached by Ihe laborers of this society. While two or three fields have been pastorlcss throughout the year because they could not raise a sufficient amounl , oven with what aid could lie granted to sup port pastors , nearly all the churches , cxj cept thice or four , pracllcally extinct , have had more or less service. The most strenuous efforts have been made during Ihe year lo keep the work within the volume of our apporllonment. Our limited apportionment forbade any pro- \lslon for general missionary work In the state ; , and Rev. W. J. Paske , our missionary for northern Nebraska , closed his services early In the 3ear and has had no successor. iAs only a small estima'e was available for evangelistic work our stale evangelist , Rev. C. S. Billings , lermlnalca hU relations with the society In June and no efforts have been made to fill his place ; nor can there be until there are more means at our dlo- pcsal. Constant and earnest efforts have been made to secure nil possible combinations of churchca so as to lessen the Dumber of fields and lo require the smallest possible outlay. The state board and the superintendent have been compelled to do more planning along this line than to encourage aggressive move ment. One of our pastors who has a family of children , with the support of only ? G 5 , preaches three times every Sunday , driving with his own team twenty-five miles over a dllllcult road to meet these appointments. Another , who receives Ihe same moderale support , has developed a circuit of outsta- tlons , six in all , surrounding the home church , to some of which he preaches Sun day afternoons -and to others on weekday evenings. The field of another pastor Is seventy-eight miles in length and ns broad s his time and strength can make It. CHURCHES GAIN. Nearly all of our churches have made gal's In membership , and ns n rule our Sunday schools and Endeavor , societies are In a hope ful condition. While it i.3 greatly to ba re gretted that we have not more means to aid our needy churches and especially to support an evangelist , the churched are doubtless Icnrhlngi needed lessons of self-help and of fuller dependence upon BpUiiual t&flue co and support. - * . jW'hlio. the total of our offerings from the state has not reached the hoped for amount , it Is gratifying to know that nearly every church In tn e state hts had part in this expression of Interest. With the exception of a few churches that have been paatorless part of the year and two or three where a change lh the schedule of benevolences throws the con.trlbullon of Ihe pres ent calendar year over Ihe line of Ihe closing home missionary year. It may Ue said that every living church In the state _ has had part In this work. Every effort has bivn made In the closing Weeks ot the year lo makei. this , result pcs- sible , and It la gratifying to record the hearty responses of pastors and people to this ap peal.Tbe Tbe society's missionaries have organ ized in all G.44G churches , about 1,000 of them being Presbyterian , planted In tbe early years when lhat denomination did Its home missionary work through this society. During the seventy-one years of its exist ence , it han received $17,373,671 In cash. The work for the part year waa as follows : Home missionaries employed , 2,02C ; states and ter ritories occupied , forty-four ; Sunday fichools under mis lonarycaro 2,638 ; scholars In ihese Sunday schools , 17,784. General O. -He-ward , as prejldent , tonlghl formally opened Ihe annual m < ellng In Ihe Washington Street Methodlsl church. The annual eermon wae delivered by Rev. Frank S. Bayley of Denver , L'nltcil Ilrotlireu Conference. DUBLIN , Ind. , June 1. The United Brethren conference today was Iho scene of a sharp debale over some proposed changed In Ihe discipline.

The commltlee on educallon recommended that the propceed new college at Huntlngton be called the Central college , and that a theological department be opened , This col- lese is now worth J75.000 , the result of glfta.

The games resulted In the less of' one by Mr. Plowman end the drawing of the game between Mr. Handy and Mr. Wilson. It then remained for Mr. Shafroth lo save Iho day for America by winning his game antl the deepest Interest was manifested In every move made. Ho started under the necessity of making six moves In thirteen minutes , but soon caught up and had time lo play studiously. When the announcement of the result of his game came the cheers of spec tators filled the room for several minutes. The time made yesterday In transmitting- messages In regard to plays was surpassed today when a message was senl to Washing ton ovcV Ihe lines of Ihe Western Union Telegraph company and Ihe American Canlo company of a move made in London and Iho answer sent back In forty seconds.

But no hint ot this was allowed lo get to them. Mr. Jonei. as Ihe end drew near , showed his excite ment. Mr , WiUon kepi himself well under control , but Mr. Parnell wore a look of con M centrated anxiety , again strikingly recalling hla famous brother In fateful moments.
