Is Leading His Forces on to Victory as Befe.V DETERMINED TO EE8IST Hill Makes an Eloquent Speech Against the Attempt at Minority Rule and Score the Sllverltes. Washington, Oct. 16. In the house the debate on the McCrenry bill to ex tend the provisions of the1 Geary Chi nese Exclusion Act for six months was resumed. Blair, of New Hamp shire, who was nominated to the Chi nese mission by Harrison, but .whose cxequator was not granted by the Chi nese government, spoke In favor of the bill. Tha'blll passed the house with Geary's amendment as to photograph ing Chinese and defining Chinese mer chants, by a vote of 107 to 9. Washington, Oct. .16. The word was sent along the line of the silver forces at 6 o'clock tonight to filibuster and to require an absolute quorum at all times. The purpose of filibustering was to show the futility of attempting fur ther force. A visit was made to Sec- tetary Carlisle by Senator Voorhees this morning. The two gentlemen ex changed their views upon the situa tion, and Carlisle urged Voorhees to hold firm and keep his forces In line. It was Immediately after this visit that Voorhees repaired to the capitol and announced his Intention of asking the senate to sit until 10 o'clock at night. Appearances would Justify the statement that the administration had taken another occasion to announce and emphasize Its opposition to any deviation from the course originally mapped out, and its determination to stay by It till all Its resources were exhausted, before accepting a com rrpmlse. , The efforts at a compromise were kept up In a1 desultory way: and Senator Cockerell, who has taken the lead os a compromiser, continued work n that direction. He did not, how ever, make material progress. Both radical democrats and republican re. peal senators have asserted positively that a compromise proposition would never secure a vote sufficient to secure Its adoption. Senator Sherman was asken tonight by a representative of the Associated Press what he thought of the prospect for the repeal bill. Sherman replied that it all depended on the democratic side, "We," said he, referring to the re peal republicans, "are quiesent. They do not seem, to realize that they are in the majority and that the responsi bility for legislation rests with them." Hill asked why, If the majority fa- ored the repeal bill, It could not pass the senate. Vest replied that If the senator had read the rules and wlt- essed the proceedings under them, he ought to be able to answer the question satisfactorily himself. Hill replied, that If the rules of the senate pre- ents the passage of a bill which the majority desired to pass, the best thing to do was to amend the rules In a proper manner. Vest retorted that he had heard that same thing discussed concerning the force bill, but the rules were not changed. Hill said that he repudiated the doctrine that cno-tlfth of the senate could absolute ly prevent legislation. The power to make rules Implies th9 power to change them. "Has it come to this," asked Hill In losing, "that the senate Is powerless first to legislate, and second to change tho rules so It can legislate hereafter? If so, It might as well disband." The repeal bill was laid before the senate. Jones, of Nevada, took the floor and continued with his speech. At 3:45 he asked the Indulgence of the senate as he was not feeling well enough to finish today. Peffer then took the floor. Palmer, of Illinois, got Into a parliamentary squabble with Kyle and Allen. Palmer was com plaining of the speeches made to con sume time and Kyle asked him to spe cify one speech. Palmer replied: "I will answer by saying that I be lieve the senator from Nebraska" This was as far as he got as Allen called him to order. Palmer declined to take anything back, and Allen de nied that his speech was an effort to consume time. ' After some Colloquy, Peffer resumed his speech. At six 'clock by a vote of 39 to 18, the senate refused to adjourn. Within the next thirty minutes the attention of the chair was called three times to the fact that a quorum was not In the chamber, but -on each roll call the chamber responded. On the roll call at 6:40 p. m. the senate was without a quorum, but a moment later wo senator appeared and Voorhees requested that further proceedings un der .the roll call be dispensed with. Dubais called for the ayes and nays. On this roll call, when pairs had to be respectefl, no quorum voted, but but during the call of the senate to dls close the presence of a quorum, when pair did not count, the quorum always appeared. Thus for two hours the senate was clogged. When Voorhees found the predicament he was placed In he attempted to withdraw his mo. tlon, upon which Dubois jcalled for the ayes and nays, but this required the unanimous consent and this Teller re fused to give. Finally, at 8:40, a vot lng quorum was obtained, Vind Peffer continued his speech. At 10 o'clock Pefter," without concluding his speech ylolded to Voorhees, who asked 'the senate to adjourn. . The motion was agreed to. . " There will probably be no more night sessions In the senate while the repeal bill Is pending.' ' The silver senators clogged the wheels effectually for about two hours, tonight, and would probably have continued to do so but for . the understanding brought about by the entanglement which was Inau gurated between the opposing forceB to qheck filibustering on the promise that some of the leadera of repeal would attempt to arrange- matters as not to make another effort to secure night sessions.. BLOWN INTO THE AIR: A Dynamite Explosion that Shattered Five Lives. r , Emtngtonr -IU-k Oct. 16. By a "prema ture fcxploslon of dynamite today, five petspns were , killed and five Injured, two ' Of whom cannot live.

Port Rowan, Ont., Oct 16. The Steamer Wocoken has gone down off Long Point, and of her crew of sixteen, thirteen are drowned. The Wocoken left Ahstabula. on Friday bound for Duluth, carrying 1800 tons of coal. She went first to Erie, where she picked up the schooner Joseph Paige. Shortly after leaving Erie she was struck by the full force of the storm, and tried to make Long Point The sea was too much for her, however, and she found herself not far from the west end of the point. She would probably have ridden out the gale but for the fact that her hatches gave way under the tremendous seas, and the beat was quickly flooded and sunk. The schoon er Paige was cast loose soon after she started for Long, Point and ran safely before the gale to shelter oh the west shore of the point. She was pretty badly wrecked.
