On motion of Mr. Sawyer Senate bill creating the office of fourth assistant postmaster general (with a salary of (4.000 a year) was taken from the calendar and the report in favor of it read. Mr. Keagan admitted that there nugiht be a necessity for the new oltioe, but said that if there was it was on account of the vicious and bad policy that bud been established.the car¬ rying of fourth-class matter at one cent per pound and the carrying of merchandise.the government thus doing the work of common carriers. Mr. Edmunds asked Mr. Reagan whether the charges were not equal to the actual expenses of doing business.the transportation and at¬ tention. Mr. Reagan did not think they were. If a Bible or school book were sent through the mails it would have to pay eight cents a pound, while yellow-covered literature, with its poison¬ ous influences, and newspapers Vere carried at one cent a pound. Instead of multiplying of¬ fices the better way would be to do away with abuses in the service. Al ter further discussion the bill was passed. THE APPORTIONMENT BILL TAKEN CP. At the close of the morning honr (12 o'clock) the Senate proceeded to the consideration of the apportionment bill as the unfinished busi¬ ness i;nd Mr. Edmunds addressed the Senate^ calling its attention to the fact that the bill took no cognizance whatever of the provisions of the fourteenth amendment to the Constitu¬ tion that, in case the right of suffrage be denied or abridged in any state, the representation of that state shall be diminished accordingly. The Senate then proceeded to Tote on the amendments prepared by the minority.the first being to increase the representation of Ar¬ kansas from C to 7. VOTING ON AMENDMENT*. The amendment was rejected.yeas. 32; nays, 33. All the democratic Senators voted for the amendment and were reinforced by five repub¬ lican Senators.Messrs. Davis, McMillan, Pad- dovk, Stewart aud Washburn. The next amendment was to increase the representation of Minnesota from 7 to 8. It was also rejected.yeas, 31; nays, 32 On this vote Mr. Casey voted with the dem¬ ocrats, of whom two less voted than on the preceding vote. The next amendment was to increase the representation of Missouri from 15 to 16. It wiu rejected.yeas, 30; nays, 38. The only republicans voting aye on this amendment were Messrs. Davis, Paddock and Washburn. Messrs. Casey, McMillan and Stewart voted nj. The next amendment was to increase the representation of New York from 84 to 33. It tMs rejected.yeas, 29; nays. 38; Messrs. Davis and Paddock being the only republicans voting in the affirmative. Mr. Davis then withdrew the amendment fixing the total number of Representatives at 3<;o. Mr. Berry offered an amendment fixing the total number at 359 and giving an additional member to Arkansas, Minnesota and New York and desired to have it voted on as one amon.lment. A division of it, however, was insisted on by Mr. Hale. Mr. HkIb then moved to lay the amendment on the table and that motion was agreed to. yeas. 38; nayt, 29. The only republican-: who voted in the negative were Messrs. Davis and Washburn. OBJECTIONS TO THE BILL. Mr. Test stated why he could not vote for the bill; it was because a large fraction of popula¬ tion in the states of Michigan, Minnesota, Arkansas and New York was left entirely with¬ out representation. Mr. Gorman also opposed the bill because, in his belief, a re-enumeration should have been made in the city of New York, where there was a deficit of some 200.000 in the census returns as taken, and because he believed that that state and the states of Arkansas, Minnesota and Missouri KilimlH hm-f U" 1 the session. Mr. Jones (Ark.) declared his belief that in his state the census returns were very defective, and that if the truth were known Arkansas had a population enough to entitle her to seven Representatives. Mr. Morgan spoke of tne necessity of a spe¬ cific declaration in the bill that the number of presidential electors in 1892 shall correspond with the number of representatives fixed in the bill. The country had had enough of trials and troubles and difficulties in connection with presidential elections to admonish Congress to exercise the most extreme care in the matter and to make the law perfectly clear and definite. THE BILL PASSED. The bill was then passed exactly aa it came from the House: Yeas, 87; nays, 24 (a strict party vote). THE EIOHT-HOCB LAW. The Senate then, on motion of Mr. Blair, took np the House bill providing for the adjustment of accounts of laborers, workmen and mechanics arising under the eight-hour law. It having been thus made the "unfinished business" Mr. Blair consented to have it laid aside temporarily so that the army appropriation bill should be taken up and proceeded with. Mr. Gorman objected to that arrangement being made, and then Mr. Allen, who had made the request, withdrew it and moved (as a pnv- leged motion) that the army bill be taken up. That motion was agreed to, thus displacing the eight-hour bill from its advantageous position as "unfinished business." The consideration of the army appropriation bill was then pro¬ ceeded with. HOUSK. The jonraal was approved without objection, On motion of Mr. Sherman (N. Y.) a bill was I passed providing for the issuing of the com¬ mission of P. C. Johnson as rear admiral. The House then went into committee of the whole, Mr. Pay son (111.) in the chair, on the military academy appropriation bilL THE SILVER POOL. The committee having risen informally, Mr. Dingley (Me.), chairman of the committee in¬ vestigating the alleged silver pool," pre¬ sented a special report of that oommittee. The report states that in the usual form a sabpesna to appear before the committee was served upon J. A. Owenby, and that said Owenby has refused or neglected to obey the sabpesna. OWENBY TO BR BRUT ATTRR. The report is aooompanied by the following order: Ordered, that the Speaker issue his warrant directly to the sergeant-at-arms attending this House or deputy, com ing him to take into custody forthwith wm ever to be found the body of I. Owenby and him bring to the bar of the House to show cause why he should not be pun¬ ished for oontempt and in the meantime keep said J. A. Owenby in his custody to await the farther order at the House. Mr. Frank (Mo.) inquired as to the answer made by Oteahy upon the serving at the "vS^tHdev lenHad that only interna*)* upon Owenby at the Hotel Ricbeltea in Chi¬ cago. Jr. Frank inquired whether Owenby had been told that be would be entitled to mileage and fees. Mr. Pingley said that the committee had considered the matter, but that so faros he knew no information had been given to Owenbv as to his mileage. BO IHTE2ITIOH TO OBSTmCCT TBK IV VEmOATIO*. Mr. Frank declared that be had no intention of obstructing any effort to secure the attend¬ ance of the witness; but if the witness had de¬ manded mileage and fees be (Mr. Frank) thought that he would be entitled to both be¬ fore responding to the subp<ena. There was nothing to indicate what Owenby's reply to the lubpwna had been. Therefore it seemed to him that it would be well to go slow before passing such n drastic order as this. Before passing it it would be well for the Honae to know that it was able to enforce the order. After a brief legal discussion as to the power of the House to compel tho attendance of wit¬ nesses the report was agreed to as a preamble to the order, and, as amended, the order was made. The committee of the whole then resumed its session. THE MCBDEB or MATTHEWS. Matters ran Terr smoothly for a while, until the murder of Matthews, the postmaster of Carrollton, Miss., was brought up bv Mr.KeUey (Ken.), in a speech in which he criticised some remarks made by Mr. Lewis (Miss. >. He de¬ nied (as stated by Mr. Lewis) that the murder of Matthews was'attributable to other than po¬ litical cause. He had authority to say that Matthews had been killed because' he' was a republican. The gentleman from Mississippi premises his re¬ marks with a quotation to the effect that noth¬ ing but good would be said of the dead, but heaped slanders upon a dead man which be would not have heaped if the man bad been living. He (Mr. Kellev) denied the statements made by the gentleman in regard to the char¬ acter of Matthews. Mr. Flower (N.Y.) said that he had beard the gentleman from Kansas make speeches pitching into the distinguished gentleman from Arkan¬ sas (Mr. Breckinridge1. That gentleman had been returned to Congress, while the constitu¬ ents of the gentleman from Kansas had turned bim down. The more of such speeches the gentleman from Kansas made the better it would be for the democratic party. AGAINST FR£E COINAGE. The Boston Delegation Before the House Cola- age Committee. The House committee on coinage, weights and measures today heard farther argument by the delegation of ikftiton business men in opposition to the free coinage bill. Arguments were made against the bill by Gen. Walter, president of the Boston College of Technology; Sir. Endicott. president of the Savings Bank of Boston; Mr. Hooper, treasurer of Harvard Uni¬ versity; Prof. Taussig of Harvard, Mr. Jack¬ son, a stockbroker, and Mr. Breed, all from Boston. Mr. Walker argued that if the pending bill became a law disastrous results to the property of the country would follow; that all branches of trade would become paralyzed and disturbed and that the financial credit of the United States would be jeopardized. He believed the pending bill to be a menace to the country and contended that it would result simply in stripping us of our gold and reducing us to the lines of second-class financial powers. Mr. Breed, representing a large number of manufacturers of Boston, protested against any change in the present standard of value and Mr. Jackson thought that the constant agitation of the silver question by Congrcsu was detri¬ mental to stability in the money market and predicted a panic unless the question was settled one way or the other. The arguments generally consisted of a recital of jiersonal views or. the subject ano embarrassments that had been en¬ countered. owing to the stringency of the mar¬ ket caused by the recent agitation of the silver question. ira. holdkn's telegram. A telegram was handed to the committee from E. Ji. Holden, a Colorado miner, now in New York, reading as follows: Fifty per cent of the gold produced in the United StateH is found in silver ore. Are the gentlemen of Boston aware of this fact? They are not. If they were they would not attempt to interfere with the industry* of silver mining. If free coinngs is defeated it will seriously in¬ jure the silver-mining industry and conse¬ quently reduce the supply of gold produced in the United States, whereas, on the other hand, free coinage of silver will stimu¬ late mining generally and increase the supply of gold. If this condition obtains will gold be at a premium? I defy the Boston gold advo¬ cates to maintain such a position. The committee then adjourned until tomor¬ row, when Director Leech will be heard. THE SILVER POOL. Representative Ketcham Denies Having Been Interested In Silver Speculation. Congressman J. H. Ketcham was examined by the Bilver pool investigation committee this morning. He appeared before the committee voluntarily, and declared that the statement which had been published yesterday connect¬ ing his name with silver speculations was un¬ qualifiedly false. He had never bought or sold an ounce of silver in his life, nor engaged in any transactions relative thereto. He bad never owned a silver certificate, nor had.he been mixed up with silver speculation in any way. He stated further that he had no knowledge in regard to the connection of any Senator or Congressman with the alleged silver pool. At the conclusion of Mr. Ketcliam's testi¬ mony the committee went into secret session. The committee adjourned later until tomor¬ row afternoon. It was expected that Mr. Hedenberg of Chicago would be on hand for examination today, but in the absence of that gentleman and of any other witnesses the hear¬ ing was necessarily postponed SENATOR HOAR DENIES. Ha Has keeelved no Letter Abont a Canvass of the Massachusetts Legislature. The attention of Senator Hoar was called this afternoon to a statement published in a morn¬ ing paper to the effect that he had been noti¬ fied by a letter from Speaker Barrett of the Massachusetts house of representatives that a canvass of the house had been made by Mr. Bar¬ rett and showed a decided majority against any further pushing of the federal elections bill. The published report also said that in view of this canvass the Senator was willing to con¬ sider the action of the Senate last Monday as final and gladly relinquished the burden of re¬ sponsibility for the elections bill. Senator Hoar, on being interrogated on this point, said that so far as he could recollect he had received no letter from Mr. Barrett con- taing any such information, nor had he re¬ ceived any information of that nature from any other source, nor had he any knowledge that any canvass for or against the elections bill had been made in the Massachusetts legislature. Furthermore, he declared that if such a can¬ vass had been made and had resulted in the manner indicated it would have no influence whatever in changing his views or his inten¬ tions with regard to the elections bilL CLOSETED WITH SALISBURY. 9 Minister Lincoln and the English Premier Discussing the Barlss Sea Matter.

Jan. 29..The liberal* scored an¬ other point with the workingmen yesterday in the motion of Mr. Robertson of Dundee to amend the la* relating to criminal conspiracy. The government secured the defeat of the mo¬ tion by only a majority of thirty-six. and the defeat is almost as good for liberal purposes as a victory. The motive for amending the Is* is the decision by the recorder ol Plymouth that a strike for the purpose of compelling employ¬ ers not to employ other persons is illegal, and renders all personsengaged in it liable to prose- cution as criminal conspirators and subject to fine or imprisonment. The complaint was brought by a coal merchant who employed, non-union men and whose union hands were called out on that account. The union secre¬ taries were prosecuted and the recorder fined them each LM. The recorder's decision is far reaching, and, until the law is amended, makes all who strike, or who promote a strike, on ac¬ count of non-union hands being employed guiltv of crime. The workingmen are deter- tnine'd that the lew shall be amended, and Mr. ltoliertson, who represents a workingmen s con¬ stituency, has made the first move in that direc¬ tion ana got Lord Salisbury * government again committed us opposed to the working class. A rim VIEW OF rOREIOS TARIFF. Mr. Goecben, in an address to the Leeds chamber of commerce, wud that there should be no scolding or complaining of foreign coun¬ tries for pursuing the course they thought for their best interests, but in view of the menace of foreign tariffs to the industrial interests of Great Britain workmen and employes should try to avoid acromonions differences, and mas¬ ters and men in cordial alliance could maintain British commercial supremacy against all the world.

Several members of parliament of the Healy- McCarthv faction were present and spoke, but Mr. Sexton was absent. The Parnellites at¬ tended in considerable numbers, and the op- posing factions indulged in long and loud howls of defiance which almost completely dro»n»d the voices of the speakers, who could not be heanl s dozen steps from the platform.

SENATE.

Mr. Morrill introduced a joint resolution forthe appointment on the board of regents of theSmithsonian Institution of Win. Preston John¬son of Louisiana in place of Noah Porter ofConnecticut, resigned. Laid on the table.A FOURTH ASSISTANT POSTMASTER OIM111.On motion of Mr. Sawyer Senate bill creating

the office of fourth assistant postmaster general(with a salary of (4.000 a year) was taken fromthe calendar and the report in favor of it read.Mr. Keagan admitted that there nugiht be anecessity for the new oltioe, but said that ifthere was it was on account of the vicious andbad policy that bud been established.the car¬rying of fourth-class matter at one cent perpound and the carrying of merchandise.thegovernment thus doing the work of commoncarriers.

Mr. Edmunds asked Mr. Reagan whether thecharges were not equal to the actual expensesof doing business.the transportation and at¬tention.Mr. Reagan did not think they were. If a

Bible or school book were sent through themails it would have to pay eight cents a pound,while yellow-covered literature, with its poison¬ous influences, and newspapersVere carried atone cent a pound. Instead of multiplying of¬fices the better way would be to do away withabuses in the service.

Al ter further discussion the bill was passed.THE APPORTIONMENT BILL TAKEN CP.

At the close of the morning honr (12 o'clock)the Senate proceeded to the consideration ofthe apportionment bill as the unfinished busi¬ness i;nd Mr. Edmunds addressed the Senate^calling its attention to the fact that the billtook no cognizance whatever of the provisionsof the fourteenth amendment to the Constitu¬tion that, in case the right of suffrage be deniedor abridged in any state, the representation ofthat state shall be diminished accordingly.The Senate then proceeded to Tote on theamendments prepared by the minority.thefirst being to increase the representation of Ar¬kansas from C to 7.

VOTING ON AMENDMENT*.The amendment was rejected.yeas. 32; nays,

33. All the democratic Senators voted for theamendment and were reinforced by five repub¬lican Senators.Messrs. Davis, McMillan, Pad-dovk, Stewart aud Washburn.The next amendment was to increase the

representation of Minnesota from 7 to 8.It was also rejected.yeas, 31; nays, 32On this vote Mr. Casey voted with the dem¬

ocrats, of whom two less voted than on thepreceding vote.The next amendment was to increase the

representation of Missouri from 15 to 16.It wiu rejected.yeas, 30; nays, 38. The onlyrepublicans voting aye on this amendment were

Messrs. Davis, Paddock and Washburn. Messrs.Casey, McMillan and Stewart voted nj.The next amendment was to increase the

representation of New York from 84 to 33. IttMs rejected.yeas, 29; nays. 38; Messrs.Davis and Paddock being the only republicansvoting in the affirmative.Mr. Davis then withdrew the amendment

fixing the total number of Representatives at3<;o.Mr. Berry offered an amendment fixing the

total number at 359 and giving an additionalmember to Arkansas, Minnesota and NewYork and desired to have it voted on as oneamon.lment.A division of it, however, was insisted on byMr. Hale.Mr. HkIb then moved to lay the amendment

on the table and that motion was agreed to.yeas. 38; nayt, 29. The only republican-: whovoted in the negative were Messrs. Davis andWashburn.

OBJECTIONS TO THE BILL.Mr. Test stated why he could not vote for the

bill; it was because a large fraction of popula¬tion in the states of Michigan, Minnesota,Arkansas and New York was left entirely with¬out representation.Mr. Gorman also opposed the bill because, in

his belief, a re-enumeration should have beenmade in the city of New York, where there wasa deficit of some 200.000 in the censusreturns as taken, and because hebelieved that that state andthe states of Arkansas, Minnesota and MissouriKilimlH hm-f U" 1

the session.Mr. Jones (Ark.) declared his belief that in

his state the census returns were very defective,and that if the truth were known Arkansas hada population enough to entitle her to sevenRepresentatives.Mr. Morgan spoke of tne necessity of a spe¬cific declaration in the bill that the number of

presidential electors in 1892 shall correspondwith the number of representatives fixed in thebill. The country had had enough of trials andtroubles and difficulties in connection withpresidential elections to admonish Congress toexercise the most extreme care in the matterand to make the law perfectly clear and definite.

THE BILL PASSED.The bill was then passed exactly aa it came

from the House: Yeas, 87; nays, 24 (a strictparty vote).

THE EIOHT-HOCB LAW.The Senate then, on motion of Mr. Blair, took

np the House bill providing for the adjustmentof accounts of laborers, workmenandmechanicsarising under the eight-hourlaw. Ithavingbeenthus made the "unfinished business" Mr. Blairconsented to have it laid aside temporarily sothat the army appropriation bill should betaken up and proceeded with.Mr. Gorman objected to that arrangementbeing made, and then Mr. Allen, who had made

the request, withdrew it and moved (as a pnv-leged motion) that the army bill be taken up.That motion was agreed to, thus displacing theeight-hour bill from its advantageous positionas "unfinished business." The considerationof the army appropriation bill was then pro¬ceeded with.

HOUSK.

The jonraal was approvedwithout objection,On motion of Mr. Sherman (N.Y.) a bill was I

passed providing for the issuing of the com¬mission of P. C. Johnson as rear admiral.The House then went into committee of the

THE SILVER POOL.The committee having risen informally, Mr.

Dingley (Me.), chairman of the committee in¬vestigating the alleged silver pool," pre¬sented a special report of that oommittee. Thereport states that in the usual form a sabpesnato appear before the committee was servedupon J. A. Owenby, and that said Owenby hasrefused or neglected to obey the sabpesna.

OWENBY TO BR BRUT ATTRR.The report is aooompanied by the following

order: Ordered, that the Speaker issue hiswarrant directly to the sergeant-at-armsattending this House or deputy, coming him to take into custody forthwith wmever to be found the body of I.Owenby and him bring to the bar of theHouse to show causewhy he should not bepun¬ished for oontempt and in the meantime keepsaid J. A. Owenby in his custody to await thefarther order at the House.Mr. Frank (Mo.) inquired as to the answermade by Oteahy upon the serving at the

"vS^tHdev lenHad that onlyinterna*)*

upon Owenby at the Hotel Ricbeltea in Chi¬cago.Jr. Frank inquired whether Owenby hadbeen told that be would be entitled to mileageand fees.Mr. Pingley said that the committee had

considered the matter, but that so faros heknew no information had been given to Owenbvas to his mileage.BO IHTE2ITIOH TO OBSTmCCT TBK IVVEmOATIO*.Mr. Frank declared that be had no intention

of obstructing any effort to secure the attend¬ance of the witness; but if the witness had de¬manded mileage and fees be (Mr. Frank)thought that he would be entitled to both be¬fore responding to the subp<ena. There wasnothing to indicate what Owenby's reply to thelubpwna had been.Therefore it seemed to him that it would be

well to go slow before passing such n drasticorder as this. Before passing it it would bewell for the Honae to know that it was able toenforce the order.

After a brief legal discussion as to the powerof the House to compel tho attendance of wit¬nesses the report was agreed to as a preambleto the order, and, as amended, the order wasmade.The committee of the whole then resumed its

session.THE MCBDEB or MATTHEWS.

Matters ran Terr smoothly for a while, untilthe murder of Matthews, the postmaster ofCarrollton, Miss., was brought up bv Mr.KeUey(Ken.), in a speech in which he criticised someremarks made by Mr. Lewis (Miss. >. He de¬nied (as stated by Mr. Lewis) that the murderof Matthews was'attributable to other than po¬litical cause.He had authority to say that Matthews had

been killed because' he' was a republican. Thegentleman from Mississippi premises his re¬marks with a quotation to the effect that noth¬ing but good would be said of the dead, butheaped slanders upon a dead man which bewould not have heaped if the man bad beenliving. He (Mr. Kellev) denied the statementsmade by the gentleman in regard to the char¬acter of Matthews.Mr. Flower (N.Y.) said that he had beard the

gentleman from Kansas make speeches pitchinginto the distinguished gentleman from Arkan¬sas (Mr. Breckinridge1. That gentleman hadbeen returned to Congress, while the constitu¬ents of the gentleman from Kansas had turnedbim down. The more of such speeches thegentleman from Kansas made the better itwould be for the democratic party.

AGAINST FR£E COINAGE.

The Boston Delegation Before the House Cola-age Committee.

The House committee on coinage, weightsand measures today heard farther argumentby the delegation of ikftiton business men inopposition to the free coinage bill. Argumentswere made against the bill by Gen. Walter,president of the Boston College of Technology;Sir. Endicott. president of the Savings Bank ofBoston; Mr. Hooper, treasurer of Harvard Uni¬versity; Prof. Taussig of Harvard, Mr. Jack¬son, a stockbroker, and Mr. Breed, all fromBoston.Mr. Walker argued that if the pending bill

became a law disastrous results to the propertyof the country would follow; that all branchesof trade would become paralyzed and disturbedand that the financial credit of the UnitedStates would be jeopardized. He believedthe pending bill to be a menace to the countryand contended that it would result simply instripping us of our gold and reducing us to thelines of second-class financial powers.Mr. Breed, representing a large number of

manufacturers of Boston, protested against anychange in the present standard of value andMr. Jackson thought that the constant agitationof the silver question by Congrcsu was detri¬mental to stability in the money market andpredicted a panic unless the question was settledone way or the other. The arguments generallyconsisted of a recital of jiersonal views or. thesubject ano embarrassments that had been en¬countered. owing to the stringency of the mar¬ket caused by the recent agitation of the silverquestion.

ira. holdkn's telegram.A telegram was handed to the committee

from E. Ji. Holden, a Colorado miner, now inNew York, reading as follows:

Fifty per cent of the gold produced in theUnited StateH is found in silver ore. Are thegentlemen of Boston aware of this fact? Theyare not. If they were they would not attemptto interfere with the industry* of silver mining.If free coinngs is defeated it will seriously in¬jure the silver-mining industry and conse¬quently reduce the supply of gold producedin the United States, whereas, on theother hand, free coinage of silver will stimu¬late mining generally and increase the supplyof gold. If this condition obtains will gold beat a premium? I defy the Boston gold advo¬cates to maintain such a position.The committee then adjourned until tomor¬row, when Director Leech will be heard.

THE SILVER POOL.

RepresentativeKetcham Denies Having BeenInterested In Silver Speculation.

Congressman J. H. Ketcham was examinedby the Bilver pool investigation committee thismorning. He appeared before the committeevoluntarily, and declared that the statementwhich had been published yesterday connect¬ing his name with silver speculations was un¬

qualifiedly false. He had never bought or soldan ounce of silver in his life, nor engaged inany transactions relative thereto. He badnever owned a silver certificate, nor had.hebeen mixed up with silver speculation in anyway. He stated further that he had noknowledge in regard to the connection of anySenator or Congressman with the alleged silverpool.At the conclusion of Mr. Ketcliam's testi¬

mony the committee went into secret session.The committee adjourned later until tomor¬

row afternoon. It was expected that Mr.Hedenberg of Chicago would be on hand forexamination today, but in the absence of thatgentleman and of any other witnesses the hear¬ing was necessarily postponed

SENATOR HOAR DENIES.

Ha Has keeelved no Letter Abont a Canvassof the Massachusetts Legislature.

The attention of Senator Hoar was called thisafternoon to a statement published in a morn¬ing paper to the effect that he had been noti¬fied by a letter from Speaker Barrett of theMassachusetts house of representatives that acanvass of the house had been made by Mr.Bar¬rett and showed a decided majority against anyfurther pushing of the federal elections bill.The published report also said that in view ofthis canvass the Senator was willing to con¬sider the action of the Senate last Monday asfinal and gladly relinquished the burden of re¬sponsibility for the elections bill.Senator Hoar, on being interrogated on this

point, said that so far as he could recollect hehad received no letter from Mr. Barrett con-taing any such information, nor had he re¬ceived any information of that nature from anyother source, nor had he any knowledge thatany canvass for or against the elections bill hadbeen made in the Massachusetts legislature.Furthermore, he declared that if such a can¬

vass had been made and had resulted in themanner indicated it would have no influencewhatever in changing his views or his inten¬tions with regard to the elections bilL

The Eagllih Liberals Make t Point With theH orklngmen.

Lospos. Jan. 29..The liberal* scored an¬other point with the workingmen yesterday inthe motion of Mr. Robertson of Dundee toamend the la* relating to criminal conspiracy.The government secured the defeat of the mo¬tion by only a majority of thirty-six. and thedefeat is almost as good for liberal purposes asa victory. The motive for amending the Is* isthe decision by the recorder ol Plymouth thata strike for the purpose of compelling employ¬ers not to employ other persons is illegal, andrenders all personsengaged in it liable to prose-cution as criminal conspirators and subject tofine or imprisonment. The complaint wasbrought by a coal merchant who employed,non-union men and whose union hands werecalled out on that account. The union secre¬taries were prosecuted and the recorder finedthem each LM. The recorder's decision is farreaching, and, until the law is amended, makesall who strike, or who promote a strike, on ac¬count of non-union hands being employedguiltv of crime. The workingmen are deter-tnine'd that the lew shall be amended, and Mr.ltoliertson, who represents a workingmen s con¬stituency, has made the first move in that direc¬tion ana got Lord Salisbury * governmentagain committed us opposed to the workingclass.
