BROOKLYN, Jan. 14, All the elec- tric street railways, with the excep- tion of the Smith and Jay street lines, were tied up by a strike which began at 5 o'clock this morning. Between 7,000 and 8,000 men are out The entire police force of 1,700 men is in readiness in 'case there be any trouble. The men's grievances and demands are thus stated: The state law pro- vides the day's work of street railway employes shall be 10 hours, within 12 consecutive hours. It is alleged the corporations required the men to work 11 hours, and even 12 hours, with no interval longer than 10 min- utes for lunch, and even depriving them that brief time in most instances. The wage rate agreed upon a year ago was $2 for the statutory day's work. The companies, it is alleged, have made to allowance for overtime. Therefore, the men demand adher- ence to the law, and $2.25 for a day of 12 hours. The tieup is materially affecting the United States mail service. One of the trolley lines delivered mail this EAST AND SOUTH VIA The Shasta Route OF THE Southern Pacific Co.

Chances of Legislation Unimproved. Teller Makes a Strong Speech". He Believes the Income Tax Will Be- come Permanent anl That It Is an Equitable Law, WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. The meet- ing of the senate finance committee to- day was devoted to the discussion by Vest and MaPherson of the finance bills, presented yesterday. No action was taken. The committee adjourned until Monday, when it is expected Jones will have a bill to be consid- ered. It was stated the prospects of financial legislation have not been brightened materially by today's meet- ing. TELLER'S SPEECH. Washington, Jan. 12. The senate galleries were fairly filled today in anticipation of a speech by Senator Gorman on the currency question, in Which it was thought he would propose some solution of the problem from the senate standpoint. Quay spread be- fore him on his desk a roll of manu- script which looked like a formidable and carefully prepared speech, of the kind for which he la noted. CockreU called up the urgent deficiency bill. Presiding Officer Harris explained Its parliamentary situation coming over from yesterday. Hill offered an amend- - i ment to it, appropriating funds for the j collection of the income tax, so the . legality of the tax might be trans- - f erred to the courts. The chairman had ruled out the amendment on a point of order. Hill - appealed from the decision of the chair, and Morgan moved to lay the appeal on the table In order to permit the senate to make further discussion on the income tax. Morgan agreed to withdraw his mo- tion, and proposed a vote on Hill's appeal. Teller then addressed the sen- ate in support of the continuance of tho income tax. He pointed to the ! largo treasury deficit, which had been temporarily met by bond issues. The gold supply was down to $77,000,000, and was rapidly disappearing. Any proposition to do away with the in- come tax, therefore, should be ac- companied by a plan to raise the rev- enues the, government required. Teller gave it as his opinion the income tax would become permanent, even though it was limited to five years by the present law. He believed it was such an equitable tax the people would insist on its continuance. THE GREEN-EYE- D MONSTER. Chicago, Jan. 12. Crazed by jeal- ousy, Jacob Miller, a furniture pol- isher, residing at 641 North Wood street, cut his wife's throat from ear to ear with a razor, this morning. The woman was killed Instantly. Miller then rushed to the factory, where he was employed, and shot James Oland-e- r, the foreman, inflicting a slight wound over the eyes. The man's two little children witnessed the murder of their mother. JOHN BURNS OPINION. Liverpool, Jan. 12. John Bums, M. P. and labor leader, arrived from New York today. In an interview he said he liked the Americans' very' much, but in his opinion the American cap- italist was an. enlarged and offensively glorified edition of his English proto- type. Excepting In tftie skilled trades, he said, the American workingmen are not organized to the extent that the English workingmen are. IN NEBRASKA. Omaha, Jan. 12. The weather has moderated much since last night and little fear is expressed that any suffer- ing will result in Nebraska tonight. Reports from the drouth districts do not show that there are any alarm-i- n e results from last night. The Two Big Leaders Swap Items. Plain Talk from the Marylander. Olconiargaine Bill in Statu Quo in the House Fillibusteringr Against It. WASHINGTON, Jan. 14. Stirring Interest was given to the senate pro- ceedings today by the speeches of Sen- ators Gorman and Hill on the various phases of the tariff and financial situ- ations. At one time the debate be- tween the two senators took on an ad- ded Interest from the keen personal criticism and satire directed at each other. Gorman spoke for two hours. His speech was mainly remarkable in its arrangement of facts to show that the tariff law whioh Morgan took so large a part in framing, was wholly insuffi- cient In raising the revenue absolutely requisite to carry on the government. In presenting this view, Gorman dwelt on the personal feature of the contest over the Wilson bill and ar raigned Hill for his attitude then and since. The speech of Hill was equally per sonal and equally vigorous, and was received with the same coce attention from his asociates and Intense In terest in the galleries as had been shown to the Maryland senator. Hill directed bis remarks mainly at Gor- man, who sat only a few feet away. Speaking of the treasury deficit, Gor man, addressing the democratic side, said: "You cannot afford to trifle with the situation. You must maintain, without party divisions, the honor and integrity of this government. "We are raising more taxes from our people than from customs duties," said Gorman. "Not enough revenue was being raised from customs to pay pensions, and the bulk of taxation was now being levied within our own bor- ders." Addressing the republicans, he said, You will come into power on March 4th next, :under circumstances more favorable than: we did. We have re- moved many of the obstacles from your path, i You will have in the, house as big a majority as we have now, and in i the senate a majority as big as ours lor ours hangs but Cy" a"thread. I say now to the senator from Pennsyl vania, when he and his colleagues meet the question that confronts us now, I will treat him and his friends in a spirit different from that which he has manfested towards us. I will say to him when any question affecting the finances of the government arises, any proposition to prevent bankruptcy of the government or to give the country sound 'currency1, I will help you through In the hour of peril, although you refused to aid us." Aldrich said: "As the senator from Maryland says the responsibility will be on the republic :an side of the cham- ber after March 4th, let me ask him If we will have a president with us after that date?" Gorman paused for a moment and then, in eloquent terms, declared the president of the United States could be depended upon to meet any emer- gency presented to him with patriot- ism, uninfluenced by any party feel- ing. Senator Allison also contributed to the features of the day by a short but effective presentation of the need of immediate legislation on the tariff, to raise revenue instead of farther agita- tion on the currency question. Filibustering tactics again defeated the great oleomargarine bill, which was under consideration during the morn- ing hour in .the house today. By a special order from the rules committee the remainder of the day was consumed with business, reported from the judiciary committee. But one bill, however, was passed that providing for additional Judicial facil- ities for the Indian territory. morning. Postmaster Sullivan said he would have to go back to the old sys- tem of collecting by aid of mail wag ons. He had called upon every substi-- ! tute connected with the office to do duty. All the old stages that could be se- cured in the city were pressed into service and a line of teams was es- tablished between Flatlands, hrough Flatbush avenue, to the city hall, 15 cents being charged for the trip. It was rumored that 3,000 men liad been engaged in Chicago, Newark, Pater-so- n and other cities and were on their way to Brooklyn to take the places of the strikers. AN A. P. A, MOVE.

The secretary of the Interior has given out the fol- lowing statement: "The attention of the interior department has been called to a circular letter, the purpose of which is to effect an organization of the registers and receivers of the local land offices and the surveyor general, to raise funds to defeat certain pro- posed legislation. The impropriety of subordinate officers of the department attempting to counteract by a paid lobby the suggestions from the de- partment, is so manifest that it meets with the severest condemnation of the secretary of the Interior, and It Is not improbable that some of the officers who have been most active in this mat- ter will have no occasion in a short time to take any interest in whether the offices they hold now are abolished or not." Tor full details call on Geo. F. , rin, Corvallis, Or.', or address lution brought forth considerable dis cussiem. On motion of Smith of Jose phine the matter was laid on the table. !

    STREET CAR STRIKE.

    BROOKLYN, Jan. 14, All the elec-tric street railways, with the excep-tion of the Smith and Jay street lines,were tied up by a strike which beganat 5 o'clock this morning. Between7,000 and 8,000 men are out Theentire police force of 1,700 men is inreadiness in 'case there be any trouble.

    The men's grievances and demandsare thus stated: The state law pro-vides the day's work of street railwayemployes shall be 10 hours, within12 consecutive hours. It is allegedthe corporations required the men towork 11 hours, and even 12 hours,with no interval longer than 10 min-utes for lunch, and even deprivingthem that brief time in most instances.The wage rate agreed upon a year agowas $2 for the statutory day's work.The companies, it is alleged, havemade to allowance for overtime.Therefore, the men demand adher-ence to the law, and $2.25 for a dayof 12 hours.

    The tieup is materially affecting theUnited States mail service. One ofthe trolley lines delivered mail this

    Teller Makes a StrongSpeech".

    He Believes the Income Tax Will Be-come Permanent anl That It

    Is an Equitable Law,

    WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. The meet-ing of the senate finance committee to-day was devoted to the discussion byVest and MaPherson of the financebills, presented yesterday. No actionwas taken. The committee adjourneduntil Monday, when it is expectedJones will have a bill to be consid-ered. It was stated the prospects offinancial legislation have not been

    brightened materially by today's meet-ing.

    TELLER'S SPEECH.Washington, Jan. 12. The senate

    galleries were fairly filled today inanticipation of a speech by SenatorGorman on the currency question, inWhich it was thought he would proposesome solution of the problem from thesenate standpoint. Quay spread be-fore him on his desk a roll of manu-script which looked like a formidableand carefully prepared speech, of thekind for which he la noted. CockreUcalled up the urgent deficiency bill.Presiding Officer Harris explained Itsparliamentary situation coming overfrom yesterday. Hill offered an amend- -

    i ment to it, appropriating funds for thej collection of the income tax, so the. legality of the tax might be trans--

    ferred to the courts. The chairmanhad ruled out the amendment on apoint of order. Hill - appealed fromthe decision of the chair, and Morganmoved to lay the appeal on the tableIn order to permit the senate to makefurther discussion on the income tax.Morgan agreed to withdraw his mo-tion, and proposed a vote on Hill'sappeal. Teller then addressed the sen-ate in support of the continuance oftho income tax. He pointed to the

    ! largo treasury deficit, which had beentemporarily met by bond issues. Thegold supply was down to $77,000,000,and was rapidly disappearing. Anyproposition to do away with the in-come tax, therefore, should be ac-companied by a plan to raise the rev-enues the, government required. Tellergave it as his opinion the income taxwould become permanent, even thoughit was limited to five years by thepresent law. He believed it was suchan equitable tax the people wouldinsist on its continuance.

    Plain Talk from theMarylander.

    Olconiargaine Bill in Statu Quo inthe House Fillibusteringr

    Against It.

    WASHINGTON, Jan. 14. StirringInterest was given to the senate pro-ceedings today by the speeches of Sen-ators Gorman and Hill on the variousphases of the tariff and financial situ-ations. At one time the debate be-tween the two senators took on an ad-ded Interest from the keen personalcriticism and satire directed at eachother.

    Gorman spoke for two hours. Hisspeech was mainly remarkable in itsarrangement of facts to show that thetariff law whioh Morgan took so largea part in framing, was wholly insuffi-cient In raising the revenue absolutelyrequisite to carry on the government.

    In presenting this view, Gormandwelt on the personal feature of thecontest over the Wilson bill and arraigned Hill for his attitude then andsince.

    The speech of Hill was equally personal and equally vigorous, and wasreceived with the same coce attentionfrom his asociates and Intense Interest in the galleries as had beenshown to the Maryland senator. Hilldirected bis remarks mainly at Gor-man, who sat only a few feet away.

    Speaking of the treasury deficit, Gorman, addressing the democratic side,said: "You cannot afford to trifle withthe situation. You must maintain,without party divisions, the honor andintegrity of this government.

    "We are raising more taxes fromour people than from customs duties,"said Gorman. "Not enough revenuewas being raised from customs to paypensions, and the bulk of taxation wasnow being levied within our own bor-ders."

    Addressing the republicans, he said,You will come into power on March

    4th next, :under circumstances morefavorable than: we did. We have re-moved many of the obstacles fromyour path, i You will have in the, houseas big a majority as we have now, andin i the senate a majority as big as ours

    lor ours hangs but Cy" a"thread. Isay now to the senator from Pennsylvania, when he and his colleagues meetthe question that confronts us now, Iwill treat him and his friends in aspirit different from that which hehas manfested towards us. I will sayto him when any question affecting thefinances of the government arises, anyproposition to prevent bankruptcy ofthe government or to give the countrysound 'currency1, I will help youthrough In the hour of peril, althoughyou refused to aid us."

    Aldrich said: "As the senator fromMaryland says the responsibility willbe on the republic :an side of the cham-ber after March 4th, let me ask himIf we will have a president with usafter that date?"

    Gorman paused for a moment andthen, in eloquent terms, declared thepresident of the United States couldbe depended upon to meet any emer-gency presented to him with patriot-ism, uninfluenced by any party feel-ing.

    Senator Allison also contributed tothe features of the day by a short buteffective presentation of the need ofimmediate legislation on the tariff, toraise revenue instead of farther agita-tion on the currency question.

    Filibustering tactics again defeatedthe great oleomargarine bill, which wasunder consideration during the morn-ing hour in .the house today.

    By a special order from the rulescommittee the remainder of the daywas consumed with business, reportedfrom the judiciary committee. Butone bill, however, was passed thatproviding for additional Judicial facil-ities for the Indian territory.

    morning. Postmaster Sullivan said hewould have to go back to the old sys-tem of collecting by aid of mail wagons. He had called upon every substi--!tute connected with the office to doduty.

    All the old stages that could be se-cured in the city were pressed intoservice and a line of teams was es-tablished between Flatlands, hroughFlatbush avenue, to the city hall, 15cents being charged for the trip. Itwas rumored that 3,000 men liad beenengaged in Chicago, Newark, Pater-so- n

    and other cities and were on theirway to Brooklyn to take the placesof the strikers.

    AFTER THE SUBORDINATES.

    Washington, Jan. 12. The secretaryof the Interior has given out the fol-lowing statement: "The attention ofthe interior department has been calledto a circular letter, the purpose ofwhich is to effect an organization ofthe registers and receivers of the localland offices and the surveyor general,to raise funds to defeat certain pro-posed legislation. The impropriety ofsubordinate officers of the departmentattempting to counteract by a paidlobby the suggestions from the de-partment, is so manifest that it meetswith the severest condemnation of thesecretary of the Interior, and It Is notimprobable that some of the officerswho have been most active in this mat-ter will have no occasion in a shorttime to take any interest in whetherthe offices they hold now are abolishedor not."
