The company, which up to this time hsd been on the defense, assumed the aggressive and Issued an order Saturday, June 11, discharging; a total of 525 men from Ita shops In Omaha, Cheyenne and Armstrong. Another, tilling blew was then dealt by the Union Pacific when during the present week It promulgated another order letting out 600 more men at Cheyenne and closing the shops. Still another effective stroke came Friday when the company practically depleted its Omaha shops by discharging 137 machinists and helpers, 'in all there have been about 1,100 men sum marily discharged by the company within 'about a week. This, In brief, Is the hts ' tory and progress of the trouble. Charge Violation of Afreement. One month ago the committee from the machinists called on the Ualon Pacific offi cials and presented grievances. At that t time a 20 per cent increase In wages waa asked, twice as much as was asked In the conference yesterday.- After some dellb- : eratlon the machinists agreed to com promise and an agreement was drawn up . and signed by representatives of both aides. The machinist hold that the officials ' have violated the provisions of this agree- ; ment and upon this basis new trouble was -. precipitated. ' Asked what bearing the strike would ,"hava UDon the remainder of work ,,and workmen at the shops, Union Fcclnc offlv elal said: "Nona whatever so far as w are con- I .The ..president will, It Is believed,, de cerned.

So far as the trainmen are concerned they are getting good money and for that matter the machinists and boiler makers were paid as high as any In ths country and higher than moat." It was learned Saturday at noon that the Union Pacific had Just bought eighty new nglnes, ths first of which are to be received and put Into aervlce the latter part of July. The officials claim they will then have a surplus of engines. Vice President Webster of district lodge No 11 sail lata yesterday: '!Wa go Into this strike reluctantly and after having exhausted every effort at ef fecting peaceful terms, but we go Into It confident that vwe are right and determined and hopeful of winning.

WASHINGTON, June 28. The third day's testimony given by Admiral Dewey before the senate committee on the Philippines began with a reference to the statement made by the admiral at the first day's proceeding concerning the proffer made by the Spanish governor general to surrender to him. Senator Carmack called attention to the fact that the press reports made it ap pear that he had said that during the next twenty-four hourt after the destruction of the Spanish fleet on May 1 there had been several proffers of surrender on the part of the governor. The. admiral replied that te had said that between May 1 and August 13 the governor general had sent word to him more than once that he would be pleased to surrender to the navy. The first proffer, he said, was made In May through the English consul and tub- equent 'proffers were made through the Belgian consul. At the time, the admiral admitted, Agulnaldo had begun operations around Manila and wis working toward the city. Taking up the thread of the Investigation where It was dropped yesterday Senator Carmack ssked the witness If all the trou ble In the Philippines had been due to Agulnaldo. "I won't aay that," the ad miral replied, "but," he continued, "I will repeat that If we had had 6,000 troops at Manila on May 1 the city could have been taken possession of and we would have had, at least for the time, no trouble with the native. They were our friends then." Making" Too Much of Affnlnaldo. In reply to other questions put by Senator Carmack, concerning Agulnaldo, the ad miral said: "I think you are making too much of Agulnaldo. He was a mere figure head and was surrounded by stronger men than himself. Mablnl was one of these and General Luna, whom he had killed, was another." Replying to another question the. admiral said It waa the general report throughout the east that in 1897 Agulnaldo had be trayed his people to- the Spaniards for money. Nor did he remember that this report had been denied by American officers In ths Philippines. Among other officers quoted in this . connection wss General Greene and the admiral called attention to the fact that General Greene had not given his authority. "If," he said, Agonclllo told him, I don't think the authority was good. Why do you say that Agulnaldo took the lion's share ot the property gathered by the Insurgents?" "Because he was living at Malolos like a prince. He had nothing when he landed In Manila and could have procured the means for this ostentation In no other way. He began immediately after arrival to take every dollar In eight. It may be ungrateful In me to state the facts, but It Is true that ha sent rattle to me herds of them for the ships. Stock were taken from the Philip pine people." 'Was any statement made of this circum stance at the time?" "No; that Is wsr, as you "know." ' Philippine Army Only- a Mob. Continuing his reply to this question, the -admiral said ths Phlltplne army waa then onlr a mob and without oraanlzatlon and hd to. be fed and , clothed. , He did as many have done he made the country sup port him." "Did you regard that proceeding as pll- lae and loot" "Well, we didn't do that way. For In stance, I took all the coal In aight, but I paid for it." Senator Patterson Do you refer to Agul naldo taking property for the support ot th army as loot snd pillage? Admiral Dewey That Is one part of It. Senator Carmack You didn't object at that time? Admiral Dewey No, but he soon got be yond me. . A number of questions were asked In re gard to statements mads by Generals Greene, Bell and others, but the witness asked to ba excused from criticising off! cers of the army and the chair (Senator Beverldge) said that he was not required to answer 'any questions, .the replies to which would Involve such criticism. There upon ths admiral said he was "very glad" and Senator Carmack said hs knew of no, ruch rule, but be supposed he would have to aubmlt. The admiral added that bo opinions by others would change hla own opinions of Agulnaldo. Agulnaldo Forced Upon Dewey. Senator Carmack Then Is it a fact that you took a man to Manila to be a leader of the native people who had but recently be trayed those people for a bribe? Admiral Dewey I think that would have made no difference; the country was under a reign of terror. Then you wanted a man who could or ganlse the natives?" ... No, I didn't want anyone. Agulnaldo and his people were forced upon me by Con sul Pratt and others. "Did ths consul and others have any power to force these people upon you?" "Yes, by constant pressure. I didn't want the Filipino refugees because"! didn't be Uev that a half doten of them would do any good In view ot th report that thou sands would rise up In insurrection upon our, arrival at Manila. I thought they would play a very amall part." 'Then you placed the country at the mercy of a man who would plunder and rob, notwithstanding you-had no need of his services?" Declines to Answer. This question the admiral declined to an awer and Senator Patterson took ths wit ness, asking If Agulnaldo had ever talked to him on the basis of selling out to ths Americana. The admiral replied In the negative and Mr. Patterson then asked If the Philippine leader had ever asked him for money. The reply was that Agulnaldo bad asked him to exchange gold for Mexl can dollars. "I wss prstty sure as to where he had gotten the dollars, as hs hsdn't brought them with him," said 'the admiral, "and I thought that ths fact that be wanted gold waa pretty good Indication that be was getting ready to leave. "That waa what made me think that the man waa feathering his own nest, but It was only a suspicion." Here the admiral again referred to Ag utnaldo's style st Malolaa and Senator Pat terson asked If that style had not served the purpose of Inspiring the admiration of his followers and holding ths allegiance, To thla Inquiry the witness replied that the atyle waa "probably mora Inspiring to them than to those from whom ths prop srty hsd been taken. "Do you think that Is proper testimony r ssked Mr. Patterson and Chairman Bever ldge Interfered with a strong protest to Innuendo agalnat Admiral Dewey. Ha eon sldered the question as discourteous. Mr. Patterson, however, disclaimed any Intention to be otherwiae than respectful and he continued his questions. i "Do yea- know,- he - asked; "whether Agulnaldo haa a dollar toesy ?" ' "I don't knew," waa the rapty. "I avn't been In the Philippines for three years; bow should I know." "Do you know from your experience that there wsa never a day while be waa In anna that he could not have made him self rich at the expense of the American government it he had. given up?" Th withes hesitated, and aald ha could bt answer the question. Ho then was told by the chslr tbat he need not do so. You' do know," Mr. Patterson went on. 'there were several who got good fat office r Th reply waa In the negative. The witness also aald ha knew nothing ot the payment of money to the Cuban Oeneral Gomes, and he added the suggestion to Senator Patterson that he should not put such questions to him. Ask A bent Aaderaoa. Senator Patterson also, ssked a number of questions concerning Admiral Dewey's assertion with Oeneral Anderson, after hit arrival and hla visit to Agulnaldo In com pany with the general. Ha aald he had suggested to Oeaeral Anderson on th oc casion ot that visit that hs need not wear bis uniform or put on his sword, but that bis blouse would be sufficient, sijd that the suggsstlon had been adopted. Referring to a report of. that Interview mad by Oeneral Anderson and . to copies of letters written by th general, in which Agul naldo wss assured of a desire tor amicable relations. Admiral Dewey said that he did not remember that any. Such assurance bad. been given. Speaking of Oeneral An derson's letters to , the Filipino chieftain ths witness said: . "When I heard that he waa writing let ters to Agulnaldo I advised him against doing so." .He added that he .was not converssnt with all of Oeneral Anderson's acts Before the arrival of General Merrltt, as the genersl had f one his own way, nils he (Dewey) had gone hi. He aiao saia uen ersl Anderson, had offended Agulnaldo on the occasion of their visit by his ques tion. When Senator Patterson pressed other questions calling for reference to state ments made by army offioers and others, the admiral declined to answer, ssylng: "I am her to testify to what t know and I will give all the Information I can In that way but I am not responsible for what others say. I .don't Ilk your questions and I don't think I ought to ba required to reply to them.". The chair assured the witness that he need not answer them. The admiral said, however, In reply to further pressing, that his views did not coincide with those ex pressed by .General Anderson In a magaitna article. They do not . coincide," he said, "we differed very much from the beginning." Beverldge -and Dietrich Inquire. Senators Beverldge and Dietrich then asked a few questions: The former re minded the admiral of a visit that hs (Sen ator Bevevrldge) had paid the admiral on the flagship Olympla when she lay In the harbor at Manila and asked him if ha r- ememhered a conversation that had oc curred between them, when, while they were looking out from the deck, the ad miral had said, referring to the success of the American' arms, that "he could not help thinking that It was all due to a higher power than ours." "I do," responded the admiral. "I re member that I said that and It Is my opin ion now." Senator Beverldge read extracts from the report of ths first Philippine commission, of which Admiral Dewey was a memmber, In which ths statement was made tbat the Fillplnoa were Incapable of standing alons and that It . the , - American; support was withdrawn they would lapse Into- anarchy, and asked him If that had been his opin ion. - He recited in the affirmative, adding that he- still -entertained lhaf View. Senator Carmack: "Was that always your opinion?" ' ' Admiral Dewey: '"Yea. True, I made a comparison once with the Cubans, eaylng the Filipinos were more - eapable ot self government then the Cubans I think that neither the Fillplnoa nor the Cubans ara capable of self-government." Senator .Dietrich questions were in tended to ahow the atate of Admiral Dew ey'a mind concerning the Filipinos at th time of ths engagement with the Spanish squadron. Ha aaked .the admiral If it was not true that if he had recognised the Fil ipinos aa allies,, trusted them as such and considered them capable of taking charge of Manila, he. would have accepted the proffer for the surrender ot Manila before the arrival of the American troops? 'Yes," replied the witness, "tbat Is trns, and It ia a good idea.. I had not thought of it, and I am glad you suggested It. It makes my testimony stronger. It is true, and the fact tbat I did no taccept the sur-, render and put them In charge shows that I did not trust them. -It never entered my head to do tbat." With this Admiral Dewey was discharged as a wltnese and bs expressed himself as much gratified to aecure his release.' - RUN ON A BUFFALO BANK Director Say It Is Solvent and He- ulr Depositors to Give Thirty.

OVER MORGAN RESOLUTION Alabama Benatar Bt&rU Sharp Debate Over Etociholdtri of Panama Canal. GOES TO CALENDAR WITHOUT ACTION Deboe and Blaekbern Gatste la DIs- enasloa of Kentoeky Polities aad Kllllaaj of Governor Ooebel le Brought Ip. WASHINGTON. June 28. A lively debate was precipitated in ths senate today over a resolution of Mr. Morgan of Alabama, au thorising the committee o Interoceanic canals to investigate the statue of Ameri can stockholders of the Panama canal com pany with a view ot protecting them In the French courts. Mr. Spooner of Wisconsin, Mr. Hsnna of Ohio, and Mitchell of Oregon, antagonised the resolution, maintaining that It was ,i matter with which ths United State lad nothing to do. Mr. Morgan warmly advo cated the proposition but It finally went to the calendar without action. Mr. Deboe and Mr. Blackburn of Ken tucky, engaged In an Interesting but good natured discussion of Kentucky politics In the course of .which the former alleged that the reason why Governor Taylor did not return to Kentucky and stand trial as aa accessory to the murder of Governor Ooebel was that the courts were corrupt and that the 1100,000 reward offered for apprehension ot the murderer of Ooebel had been used to corrupt the courts and bribe witnesses. This Mr. Blackburn em paihlcally dented and declared he was so thoroughly convinced tbat he would be willing to submit the case to any Judge and Jury In the union. ' ROthbone Ask In-restltcatlen. When the senate convened a partial con ference report on th general deficiency appropriation bill was sgfeed to and Messrs. Hsle, Allison and Teller appointed conferees. Bills were passed as follows: Authoris ing the Duluth, Pierre It Black Hills Rail road company tc construct a bridge across the Missouri river at Pierre, S. D. ; to pro vide souvenir medals for the benefit of the Washington Monument association ot Alex andria, Va. .Mr. Teller of Colorado presented a pe tition from Este G. Rathbone praying for a full Investigation Into his performance ot duties as director ot posts ot Cubs dur ing the occupation of Cuba. He maintained In his petition that ho was unjustly tried and unfairly convicted, and that he Is en titled to a full, fair and Impartial Investi gation by congress. Mr. Teller said the petition was unusual snd the conditions were unusual, and at his request the petition was read In full. The petitioner asked that full Justice be done to the end that aspersions upon his Character might be eliminated. Mr. Teller said the petitioner was. not now In Jeopardy, but would have been had not a general amnesty been granted by the Cuban government. He stood before the world aa a convicted criminal. The case was unique, but It was one which might arise any time In the Philippines. It teemed to him that the question demanded Investigation by the senate. While he did not psss on the guilt or Innocence ot the petitioner, he believed there wss a fair presumption of his Innocence. The petition wss referred to the com mittee on relations with Cuba. A resolution offered yesterday by Mr. Morgan "providing tor an Investigation by the committee on .interoceanic canals to ascertain whether any claims exist In favor ot cltlxena of the United States against the new or the old Panama Canal company; and authorising the committee to ascertain whether unlawful or corrupt efforts hsve been made to obtain any part of the sum that may be applied to the purchase of the property of the new Panama Canal com pany, or to Costa Rica or Nicaragua, by the United States waa taken up. After Mr. Morgan had explained the reso lution Mr. Spooner of Wisconsin vigorously opposed Its adoption, declaring It was with out precedent, entirely mischievous snd ob structive of the action ot congress. The United Statea was in no position;- he thought, to act aa agent for bondholders and shareholders of ths Panama Canal company. Those people' would have to look "to the French courta for their rights. It was not tht business of the United States to con stitute Itself a guardian bt the French court and of the ptople who had" claims against the Panama Canal company. - Mr. Morgan interrupted Mr. Spooner to say that ha wanted to know whether the lobby that had been hanging about Wash ington was to receive any part ot the $40, 000,000. He aald brlbea were paid to men who conducted great negotiations. Mr. Mitchell of Oregon said he could not support ths Morgan resolution because It would tend to delay work on the canal. Mr. . Hanna, in opposing ths resolution. resented ths insinuation that a lobby was here. He challenged Mr. Morgan to pro duct proof of such a charge. Mr. Hanna said Mr. Morgan had tried to throw a cloud upon tha Panama company's title and was endeavoring to lay upon it calumny and Charges ot corruption. There was no truth in the Insinuations. Mr. Morgan said he had made no reflec tion en congress, but Insisted that there waa a lobby for Panama. . The Morgan Panama resolution went to ths calendar without action. It will taks a Tote of the senate to get it -up. pa Kaw -Indian Matter.' - 1 Consideration then was begun of a bill to ratify an agreement submitted by ths Kanssa or Kaw Indians of Oklahoma. . The bill waa passed. A resolution was offered by Mr. Money ahd agreed to, directing the secretary ot way to supply to the ssnata copies of all orders issued by ths governor general of Cuba from the data of the beginning ot the administration up to May 10, 1901. A bill was passsd to authorise the sec retary of war to Issue certificates in lieu of loot or destroyed ditchargea from tht army. . . A resolution, offered recently . by Mr. Mitchell of Oregon, Instructing ths com mittee en Pacific islsnds and Porto Rleo to Investigate during the recess ths con dition of things In Hawaii and the ad ministration of aftalra there, with au thority to visit the islsnds, was adopted. Mr. Deboe of Kentucky then delivered a speech on his smendment to ths resolu tion for ths election of senators by the people, providing that th qualifications of cltlstns entitled to vote for United States ssnators and representatives shall bs uni form in all tha statea, and that congress shall have power to provide for the regis tration ot voters, ths conduct of elections and the certifying of the reeult. Mr. Deboe dwelt particularly upon what hs termed the Injustice of ths operation of the Ooebel election law in Kentucky, which law he acathlngly denounced. Mr. Blackburn of Kentucky replied to Mr. Deboe' s speech, making something like a categorical reply to points made by Mr. Debee. ' Cieebel Matter Called I'p. Mr. Blackburn urged tbat If what Mr. Deboe had aald was true, he was sur prised that he did not advise Governor Taylor, who, ha asserted, hsd become a fugitive In Indiana from an Indictment for being an accessory before th fact to the murder of Governor Ooebel, to. return to Kentucky and stand trial. At the conclusion of Mr, Blackburn's remarks Mr. Hale announced It was now evident that an agreement on the naval and ten deficiency appropriation bills) could Sot be reached for several hour at least He thought It unnecessary for the senate to remain longer In session todsy. Hs desired thst when sn sdjournment wss taken this evening It be to meet st 11 o'clock on Monday. Hs believed that a final adjournment of congress might be reached Monday afternoon or early on Tuesday. The senate then agreed to meet at 11 o'clock on Monday. In anawer to Mr. Blackburn's Inquiry as to why Governor Tsylor did not re turn to Kentucky and atand trial. If the statement of Mr. Deboe were sccurste, th latter said that Governor Taylor would return If It were not for the no toriously corrupt methods ot the courts. Mr. Deboe cbsrged that the 1100,000 re ward referred to by the Kentucky legis lature for the apprehension of Goebel's murderers hsd been used to corrupt ths courts. Mr. Blsckburn declared that he was so well satisfied of the guilt of Taylor that he would be willing to submit the caae to a Judge and Jury in any atate of the union. Tho senate then, at 5:05 p. m went Into executive session, and afterward, a few minutes later.' adjourned. JOY IN LONDON NOW (Continued from First Page.) Kitchener, the stsnd proprietors have to rely on the king s first public reappearance, which Is likely to be a drive through tht streets to the nstlonal thanksgiving serv ice. That, however, must be some time hence, as a tnan In his sixty-first year, In spite ot his wonderfully quick. Tecovery from the Immediate results of ths opera tion, will probably have to submit to a rather lengthy convalescence. What at first sight waa one of the moat pathetic features ot tha postponement of the coronation, among all the serious finan cial embarrassment on every hand, was tho utter demoralization of the street "fakirs," who had been counting for months past on a rich harvest. Features of the Strand, Fleet street and the hotel entrances today were street urchins, mostly of tender years, apparently weeping over trays of cheap medals, pins and other out-of-date and In appropriate souvenirs. Their general wall ing pleas were always ' addressed to the well dressed pedestrians: "Only a penny, stuck wlf me medals," "Please buy some thing." , These appeals frequently succeeded- . A noticeable fact, however, was that these "tears" snd "grief among the sharp streets Arabs only seem to have developed today. The symptoms spread rapidly. Among scores ot clever little plagiarists In other walks ot -life the same keen disap pointment was visible: Anaerloan Women Disappointed. Had the coronation occurred American women , would have constituted one of ths most brilliant features. The duchess of Marlborough had a new coronet, even more magnificent than the big pearl-tipped tiara she has hitherto worn at court. Her un worn acquisition rivalled that ot the duch ess of Portland, In which the great Port land diamond Itself, worth 12,000. has been reset. . Mrs. Arthur Tsget,' who would have had a seat In the king's box at Westminster Abbey, would have worn a costly emerald and diamond tiara, collar,., pendant and brooches formerly belonging to ier mother, Mrs. Pa ran 'Stevens. Mrs, Paget's dresa waa embroidered with diamonds and peaj-ls. -Lady Ablnger, who was a Miss Msgruder, daughter of the late Commodore Magruder, U. S. N.:' and widow of the third Baron Ablnger, had her peeress' robes embroidered" with gold, and, besides her diamond coro net, would havo worn a four-row pearl necklace, clasped with A huge sapphire and surrounded with diamonds, once the prop erty ot Marie Antoinette. Lady .Stratford, -formerly Mrs. Samuel Colgate of New York,' would certainly have made a aensatlon as she had a very high diamond tiara and Instead of a necklace would have had rubles and pearls, drsped like an algulllette. on her left shoulder, Lady Defferln, formerly Miss Florence Davis of New York, Intended to wear all the heirlooms of the Dufferln family, which she recently inherited. . . Lady Grey Egerton, who was Miss Mae Cuyler, daughter of the late Major J. Wayne Cuyler, V: 8. A., was going to dress In white embroidered with gold lilies, with a dla mond tiara, a diamond and pearl collar and two tiOcklaces, one of rubles and diamonds and ons all diamonds. Lady Deerhurst, stepdaughter ot Charles Bonyngs of San Francisco, was t'o wear beautiful black pearls, a diamond necklace and a -diamond tiara. Depew Donbte the Bulletin. NEW YORK, June W. The London cor respondent of the Herald cablet tbat Sena tor Depew, who hat followed the hlttory of King Edward s case very carefully, does not entertain the moat optimistic view of the rutcome.
