FIRST SESSION.
The Senile Silver Bill Discussed, in Senate

Rejected in the House, and Another
Conference Ordered Conference Report
on Military Academy BUI Agreed to
Agricultural Appropriation Bill Passed.
Bv Telegraph to the Mominz Star-
SENATE.
Washington, June 12 Mr. Edmunds
offered a resolution, which went over
till to-morrow, appointing Edward K.
Valentine Sergeant-at-Arms of the Se
nate, to take effect June 30, 1S90.
A remonstrance of importers of Ha
vaua ctars against schedule F of the
McKinley bill, and of the Patrons of
Husbandry against free hides, were pre
sented and referred to the Finance Com-
mittec.
Among the bills reported from the
Committee and placed on the calendar
were two Senate bills to amend the
Polygamy laws, and the House Legisla
tive. Executive and Judicial Appropria
tion bills.
Mr. Davis presented the conference
report on the Dependent Pension bill.
In reply to questions by different Sena
tors. Mr. Davis said that as to de
pendent parents all the change made by
the bill from the existing law, was that,
whereas the existing law required dependency-
to exist at the time of the
soldier's' death, the pending measure
merely required dependency at the ttme
of application: also, that his present esti
mate of the probable cost of the bill was
forty-one or forty-two millions annuallv,
instead of thirty-six millions when the
bill was first' before the Senate. A
further conference, he thought, would be
useless. The report went over and was
ordered printed, with the bill as agreed
to by the conference.
The Senate Silver bill was then taken
up. and Mr. Evarts addressed the
Senate. He said the diverse action of
the House and Senate had narrowed
the question substantially to free coin
age of silver. Opening the mints of the
t'nited States to the bullion of the
world a step of much gravity, and
winch would have wide consequences
(whether of good or evil) a step not
easilv evaded and almost irretrievable.
With the difference in ratios (15 in
Europe and 16 in this country) that
measure would be utterly impracticable,
especially if it was desired also to cause
the opening of the mints abroad to
silver. The proposition to receive silver
bullion over the counter of the Treasury
and to pay for it in certificates had
' never approved itself to his judgment.
He regarded it as being a step back
ward. Money could never be safely
treated as a commodity. It was not to
be treated as anything but the force
and propulsion of circulation.
Mr. Vance next addressed the Senate.
He did not remember since he had
been in the Senate any question that
had been so ably and thoroughly dis
cussed, or that was of higher import
ance to the people, than that now
under consideration. Nothing was bet
ter established, he said, than the fact of
the necessity of more money for the
progress and prosperity of the country.
The wealth oi the world had increased
tenfold within the last twenty years. The
output of precious metals had kept pace
neither with the growth of wealth nor
of population. In consequence of this
deficient circulation the prices of all pro
ducts were 'ower than they ever had
been before. Those who had suffered
most from the depreciation of silver
were the agricultural classes of the coun
try. The farmers were so indebted that
if there was no aid given in the way of
increasing the circulation, a large pro
portion of them were doomed to bank
ruptcy and ruin. The tariff law had con
tributed largely to the impoverishment
of farmers by its operating in the re
striction of the foreign markets. The
insanest problem ever produced was the
curtailing of money by demonetizing
silver at a time when the wealth and
business of the world had increased ten
fold. In order that there might be no mis
apprehension as to his position, and
that no one should ask on which side
of the question he was on, he desired to
state that he favored unlimited coinage
of silver money and the restoration of
silver as it was before it was demone
tized. He believed that it was only a
question of coinage, anfl that if the
United States made a beginning in
opening the door to the unlimited coin
age of srlver. the commercial countries
oi the world would follow the example.
All classes of the community desired it.
Agriculturists desired it, and as seven
eighths of the foreign comraerceof the
country was the product of the field
and farm, why should not their voice be
heard in the matter? There had never
been a greater crime perpetrated against
the American people by legislation, and
that was saying a great deal, for he had
known some infamous crimes of legisla
tion, than robbing them of the value of
their silver mines.
Mr. Morgan nejtt addressed the Sen
ate, particularly in reference to amend
ments reported by the Finance Commit
tee. His position on the subject of the
free coinage of silver needed, he said, no
definition. The very first address which
he had made in the Senate had been in
favor of that proposition, and he had
had no occasion since then to change his
attitude on that subiect. He had felt
then and still felt that he was obliged as
a Senator to furnish to the people of the
United States coins of gold and coins of
silver, without discrimination between
the two. H; did not claim to know
much about commerce, but it appeared
to him that if the United States should
take the lead in this matter and restore
silver as a money metal, commerce
would be stimulated, more abundant
crops would be produced, more abun
dant fabrics turned out in factories, and
there would be an increased activity in
.he exchange of those products and
commodities.
Without concluding his remarks, Mr.
Morgan yielded to a motion to adjourn.

CENSUS TAKER'S TROUBLES.
Complaints from the Supervisor at Ashe
ville, N. C. Superintendent Porter's Ac
tion in the Matter.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star."
Washington, June 12. Some days
ago Superintendent Porter received
copies of a printed circular, signed "Citi
zen, which has been distributed in
Asheville, N. C. calling upon people to
resist the intrusion upon their private
affairs contemplated by the census
schedules. The circular further says:
"That a stranger to your family, under
pay. and by order of impertinent and
insulting authorities at Washington, will
present himself at your house and ask
questions that would cause any modest
woman to blush with shame and indig
nation, and every man to feel that his
home and family had been put to un
called for insult and humiliation,
pie are further advised to refuse
Peo
to an-
swer census questions.
Mr. Porter paid no attention to the
anonymous circular, which he supposed
was merely the production of some
"crank," until a letter was received from
Supervisor Hardwick, dated June 9th,
in which he states that his enumerators
in Asheville are having some trouble by
people evading them. He states that
they often send a servant to the door,
saying: "There is no one here who can
give in the census." The Supervisor
asks for instructions.
Superintendent Porter to-day wrote
letters to Senator Vance and Represen
tative Ewart, calling their attention to
the condition oi affairs in Asheville, as
reported by the supervisor. He stated
that he knows of no reason for the peo
ple of Asheville to adopt such a course
in relation to the census. As far as pos
sible competent men had been appoint
ed as supervisors and enumerators, and
in no case has the appointment of an
enumerator been refused because he
was a Democrat. He asks that they use
their influence witlvthe people of Ashe
ville to induce them to take a different
view of this matter.

THE INDIANS.
The Bed Skins in Montana in an Excited
Frame of Mind Over the Shortage of Sub
siatence The Settlers Alarmed Outrages
by Cheyennes The Cowboys After Them
Ey Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Chicago, Ills., June 13. A dispatch
from St. Paul regarding thelndian ex
citement in Montana, says:
General Ruger, Commander of the
Department of Dakota, has advices from
Tongue River. Caster and Keogh, that
the Indians are in an excited frame of
mind over the shortage of subsistence.
and that alarm exists among the settlers,
but he has no information of an upris
ing and does not believe in the number
of murders, lhere are now lour com
panies of cavalry at Tongue River in
command of Major Carroll, and three
companies of infantry from Fort Keogh
are on their wayjto the same spot, due
to arrive Friday. There are nine
hnndred Cheyennces on the reservation
and about two hundred Crows on the
adjoining reservation, but the latter are
peaceable. The settlers have strongly
objected to the Cheyenne reservation,
and there are being frequent taunts
made that the Indians would soon be
cleared off. The result has been to keep
the Indians and settlers at daggers'
points, and to foment any trivial diffi
culty. A dispatch from Billings, Montana,
says: The first man to be killed by the
Cheyennes is the mayor at Tongue
River agency. The Indians are now
killing cattle by hundreds. Yesterday
forty head were found killed on Pump
kin creek. Four companies of infantry
and one troop of cavalry have left Fort
Keogh for the scene of trouble. Men
just in from the Rosebud country re
port three ranch properties burned by
the Indians, and other houses shot into,
but no people killed.
A posse of cowboys left Rosebud last
evening and said they would drive the
Indians back on their reservation with
out regard to troops. The Indians
camped only eight miles from the sta
tion on Rosebud river. The cowboys
engaged in rounding up are expected
down the river to-morrow, and the posse
which left Rosebud expect to be joined
by them near where the Indians are now
encamped.

ing particular in the way of outside
news to effect the movement. The ear
ly strength was due partially to some
outside buying in expectation of a natu

speculative offerings were quite larere.
and soon after the opening prices set

decline a prominent local trader was re
ported as being a buyer.

A TOWER OF PORCELAIN
The ieturesqra Old Structure That Once :
Stood in China.
In 1430 A. D., after nineteen years
of ceaseless labor and'an expenditure
of-about $4,000,000, the Chinese
government finished the wonderful
Porcelain Tower at Nankin, which
stood for nearly four and a quarter
centuries, until 1856, the most mar-
vellous building ever erected Dy nu
man hands. It was of octagonal
form. 260 .feet in height, with nine
stories, each having a cornice ana
gallery without-. The name oi jror
celain Tower was. .appliedfeto this
unique structure on account of the
fact that the whole ot tne outsiae
work was covered with porcelain
slabs of various sizes and colors, but
principally of red, white, yellow and
green. At every one of its nine
stones the projecting root ot tnegai
lerv was covered with green tiles,
each corner being provided, with a
bell varying m weight from 6W to
1,000 pounds.
There were 153 bells in all, each
as nicely balanced as to rock back
and forth as they, were swayed by
the breezes, giving out a continuous.
strain of beautiful but weird music.
Ranged in rows between the bells
were 128 brass, bronze and silver
lamps, which were lighted e'very
night in the year. The apex of the
tower, starting from its base at the
250 foot level and extending
upwards for a height of ten
feet was a monster gilded pine
apple, surmounted by a copper ball
about two feet in diameter. A
spiral stairway of over 300 steps led
from the base to the summit. The
building was constructed as a gift to
an empress, and was always kept in
repair Jjy the government. Light
ning struck it in 1801 and tore down
the three top stories. The injury
was repaired as soon as possible. It
would probably be standing to this
day had not the Taiping rebels im
agined its lights and bells disastrous
to their cause.
