If we have it, it is thbest. I Household Necessities Washington, June 19. The senate today toy a vote of 67 to 6 passed what is known as the Spooner Isthmian ca nal !bill as a sufcistitute for the house Hepburn ibill. It provides for the con struction of a canal by the Panama route, if title can toe obtained to the French company's, property, otherwise by the Nicara&uan route. While the ivote on final passage of ther bill was almost ovenwheliming' the real 'test came l-on the adoption of the Spooner substi tute, when it received a majority of eight. Forty -two votes were cast in the affirmative, all except two cast by republicans, th democrats with the exception of two voting1 solidly against the Spooner substitute and in. favor of the Nicaraguan route. Nine republi cans joined, them, while Elkins did not vote. On the final roll-call the six l negative votes were all cast toy demo crats. Four republicans and two dem ocrats failed to answer their names. Before the passage of the bill th amendment offered by Mr. Fairbanks for an. issue of two per cent canal bills to amount to $130,000,000, to be sold at not less than par, Was-agreed to. A motion by Mr. Morgan that the house be asked for a conference on the bill was agreed to. Morgan was appointed as one of the senator conferees. When the senate convened today at Jl o'lotrkrit-wa wftti'the Intention of beginning the voting upon the 'Isthmian canal question at 2 o'clock. Mr. Morgan presented the following letter he had received from' Secretary of State Hay, concerning the point ; raised in the Isthmian canal debate by Mr. Kittridge (S. D.) "I am requested Iby the minister of Costa Rica to inform the committee on canal that he has been instructed by his government to make known to the United States that the government of Costa Rica is prepared to take all nec essary steps to "put themselves in a position to negotiate with fhe govern ment of the United States a treaty tot appropriate concessions for an Isth mian canal on terms substantially as proposed by the government of the isthmian canal and the people desired, too, that the United States government should construct and control the canal. He pointed out that the eyes of the American peoble had been directed particularly toward the Nicaragua route (because it was supposed that as a French company had the concessions for the "Panama route the United States was barred from that route. Mr. Allison said it was proposed now to build a canal thirty-five feet deep and wide enough and with a volume of water sufficient to float the largest ship afloat. The minimum expenditure for the construction of the canal, he ber lieved, would be more than $200,000,000. To meet this enormous expenditure he favored the borrowing, of the money, making proper provisions for liquidat ing the principal and interest of the bonds. Mr. Morgan, chairman of the Inter oceanic Canal committee, at the con clusion of Mr. Allison's remarks, be gan his speech, closing the debate. He said the canal issue seemed to have come down a single point that , of finance. On that DOint he deferred to Mr. Allison, but he did not believe with him that it would be necessary to is sue bonds to pay for the construction of a canal. Mr. Morgan particularly denounced the Panama canal route as a "place where labor and death join hands." He said he had been trying to sprotect the Unjttd States from the shame of inter course with it. . Those wher wanted to "touch that thing," might do so. 'T would not do it," he declared, "for both canals." . --i HHHHMI: AGGRESSIVENESS POLICE S ORDERS THE MAYOR OF PATERSON RE QUESTS THE GOVERNOR TO SEND TROOPS. ver, by the mob, was very low today, but -hope of his recovery is entertained.

BISHOP CREATES SENSATION BY REFERENCES TO TOBACCO Milwaukee, June 19,--Bishop Nichol son, of the Milwaukee Episcopal dio cese, has created a mild sensation among the priests and laity of the dio cese by issuing a sort of a pronuncia mento against the use of tobacco. The pronunciamento is submitted as an ob ject-lesson and while the bishop com- ThrconTmunication was laid on the.i " of the table. The conference reDort on the bill to prevent the false branding or labeling of food or dairy products was agreed to. Consideration of the Isthmian canal question was resumed and Mr. Sflpooner offered formally his amendment as a substitute for the pending so-called Hepburn Nicaragua canal, bill. Mr. Clark, of Montana, then addressed the senate in support of the Nicaragua canal route. He thought if one-half th objections to both 'the Nicaragua and the , Panama routes were valid, neither route would 'be adopted. However, he was satisfied the consensus of conser vative opinion in this country was that a great isthmian waterway should be constructed. The American ipeople, he said, were not to be deterred. I "You may delay the project," said he, "but you cannot defeat It." The difficulties of constructing the canal, he believed, were exaggerated. He thought that the Nicaragua route was more to be preferred as it was, in his opinion, more feasible and practi cable than the Panama route. Mr. Clark said the Panama canal plan had . ttaAaIc iert a neriiage oi rum, uibcwici Should you have us do -your Kpda desolation. finishing?' , i i, ..I Mr. Allison explained why he should (1st.) Our WOTK ana rBv- vote for the Spooner substitute. ie oe- lieyed there was a general aesire i among the American people for an WHY priests, without decreeding against the use of tobacco in so many words, nev ertheless it has created quite a consid erable stir. The bishop maintains that there is not one trace of spiritual help or physical gain from the use of to bacco, but untold evils have resulted from its use. The extent to which the bishop's ab horrence towards tobacco goes is evidenced- by the statement that if it is true Sir Walter Raleigh introduced to bacco into England 'tis a pity that the ship that' carried him did not snk in the ocean.

All these were immediately armed with revolvers and heavy night sticks. . ' Ten ' silk manuf at'eturing firms opened for work this morning. In each of these plants every employe was armed today with a revolver. The weapons were ; supplied hy the men's employers with the approval of Mayor Hinchcliffe. Be fore taking this step the mayor had been consulted by the (manufacturers and he expressed the opinion that the employers were fully justified in arm ing their men and that it was a neces sary precaution in view of yesterday's riots. When the employers of the Pel gram and Meyer mills on Mattock street reported for work this morning every fourth man was provided by the management with a gun. During the night Winchesters and revolvers com prising a small arsenal were carried into the mill. Accompanying the weap ons were thirty rounds of ammunition for each person. With the arrival of men workers the firearms were dis tributed and the employes went armed to their looms. Not onft dve shoo started up this morning, although several were opened. The dye house owners were willing to start operations but the men refused to go to work as they feared violence at the hands of the strikers. The po lice had a slight encounter with a body of strikers and their sympathizers to day. About 400 Italians and other strikers gathered in the quarter of the city where the larger part of the Italian colonies live and forming in procession, started to march to their hall. The hail is only about a block from police head quarters. It is said the proposed meet ing there today was arranged for a meeting of anarchists last night. The police had been keeping a sharp -watch on the movements of the strikers and the procession had barely gotten under way when the reserves charged the paraders. There was a quick scatter ing in all directions by the men in line in the hand. Edison was locked up.
