But there were evidences of the coming storm. In several places along the Sixth Avenue line, above the stubles at Forty-third street, were huge piles of paving blocks, and other obstructions were placed on the tracks. Washington, Fob. 1.—Senator Allison has accepted and refused the treasury portfolio in President Harrison's cabinet, and then has asked for time in which to reconsider his last decision. The matter is now in abeyance. It is stated that Mr. Clarkaon, of Iowa, was here on Thursday of last week. He went to Senator Allison, who stated that pressure had been brought to bear upon him to accept the treasury portfolio, but that he would not ao- Washington, Feb.

They represented local Knights Df Labor assemblies, and the deacon told them lie had done with the knights, and he would not treat with the executive board or any one representing the organization in any way. A rumor prevails that the Knights of Labor ore now considering the advisability of tying up all the surface linos of this city. This will add to the seriousness of the situation, as tho police cannot begin to cover all the territory. A communication was received from the governor stating that he had signed the joint resolution submitting to a vote of the people the proposed amendment to the constitution prohibiting the sale or manufacture of intoxicating liquor. George Gilbert, bondsman for Lofferts, the New Brunswick forger and embezzler, withdrew from the bond. The prisoner has been unable to secure other bail, and mis ocen locked up in jail. POWDER The president's message relating to the fatwwM Inlands and to Corea were read and referred. William H. Bradley, a Catholic of Burlington, N. J., joined a secret benefit society and was obliged to leave the church. At his death arrangements were made to conduct funeral services at the church of which he had been a member, with the members of the society participating. There was a lively tussle between relatives of the deceased, who objected to the body entering the church, and the society men, in which the latter were successful.The senate adjourned until Tuesday. In the house the general appropriation bill was introduced and referred. The house was notified that the governor had signed the bill for the prohibitory constitutional amendment special election. The house agreed to the senate amendment of the bill relating to school affairs in the city of Philadelphia. A number of bills were reported favorably. After further morning business the senate -resumed co* .aideration of the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill, the pending question being on the amendments referring to Bamoa. At daylight squads of police inarched to the stables of each line; strikers and onlookers began to assemble, and both sides were ready for the third day's battle. Comparative quietude continued until noon. The first outbreak occurred at Tenth avenue and Fiftysixth street. About the time it was expected « car would be started out, several trucks loaded with large rocks approached, on their way to the stoneyard at Fifty-sixth street and North river. About 300 strikers attacked them, overturned the wagons, and dumped the huge rocks on the tracks. Only a few police'were on hand, but reinforcements were called, and the strikers were driven off for a cept it. Ho asked Mr. Clarkson to go to Indianapolis and convoy that decision to the president-elect. Mr. Clarkson left for the west. What effect the refusal of tho trensuryship has upon tho president-elect can be imagined when it is stated that information received from Indianapolis on the Friday night following induced Mr. Allison to depart for the Hoosier capital on Saturday morning. There was a long conference between the president-elect and the Iowa senator, and the latter finally yielded. Mr. Reagan offered the amendment to insert the words: "And for the protection of tie rights of American citizens residing in raid islands, and to preserve the neutrality awl independence thereof." Absolutely Pure. The house proceeded to consider, on second reading, the intermunicipal bill providing for the incorporation of the cities of the third class. Pending the consideration of the third section the house took a ryoesa.

Royal Baring Powder Co- 118 Wa.l St., N Y. THE INAUGURATION PARADE Mr. Vrye said the cause of the trouble in Samoa was not Germany or Bismarck, but a German trading firm. The enmity of the trading ftrm to the chiefs was due entirely to the fact that they were friendly to the United 8tates. Tamaaese was only a puppet in the hands of the firm. If be should be recognized one of his first acta under the firm's instructions would be to give notico of the abrogation of the treaty with the United States, and then the harbor of Pago-Pago would be lost. How It Will be Made Up—Five Divisions and 40,000 Men. An effort is being made to establish a national bank at Elizabeth, N. J. New York, Feb. 1.—As inauguration day draws nigh it becomes more apparent that the procession will have over 40,000 civilians and military in line. Gen. Beaver, the grand marshal, has decided to make five divisions. GERMANY AND SAMOA. A well dressed stranger who went to board with Mrs. Milligan, of Elizabeth, N. J. .walked off with four diamond pins, a diamond necklace and breastpin and other valuables. Hold On! The Declaration of War Confirmed—Na- "When the senator arrived in Washington he was besieged with telegrams from the friends of Mr. Clarkson, urging him to reconsider and to stay out of the cabinet, and at last he communicated with the president-elect that he desired to reconsider his last decision and to have the question held in abeyance. The time was granted and Senator Allison is as far away from a final decision—so he stated to his congressional friends—as ho was two weeks ago. tives Flocking: to Mataafa'a Standard. The first will consist of a United States army corps. The National Guard of the District of Columbia, comprising about 500 men, and the Pennsylvania and New York National Guard, some 8,000 strong, will comprise the second division. It will be under command of Maj. Gen. Hartranft. The third division will comprise all the remaining military organizations, 10,000 men or more. The fourth division will comprise the Grand Army of the Republic and camps of the Sons of Veterans, several thousand strong, under command of Gen. William Warner, of Missouri, commander in chief of the Grand Army of the Republic. Tho fifth will be composed of all civil organizations, including political clubs, social societies and citizens' delegations. Col. M.

' Berlin, Feb. 1.—Intelligence has been received from the Samoan Islands, via Auckland, New Zealand, that the German authorities, naval and consular, lost no time after the shooting of their soldiers and the massacre of the wounded in entering upon hostilities against Chief Mataafa and his men. Mr. Saulsbury said that if the United States did not recognize Tamasese it would not reoognize his abrogation of the treaty. Mr. McAdoo is agitating a lighthouse for the Raritan river New Brunswick. Mr. Sherman said that the United States had a vested right in the harbor. President Chauncey M. Depewj of t!io New York Central railroad, says that the reported acquisition by the Vanderbilts u° the South Pennsylvania railroad is true, but that no agreement has been entered into by them to turn the property over to the Pennsylvania railroad. Rumor has it that Gten. Harrison's real difficulty is in filling the interior department and the department of justice. For the two places first named the western Republicans are making especial play. Both places have so intimately to do with the national land policy that it is of the greatest imaginable moment to the people living west of the Mississippi river to have them presided over by two men in thorough sympathy with that section. But it is this very fact that makes Gen. Harrison pause. He is afraid that if he yields too much to this sentiment he may incur the criticism of having filled the two places with an eye alone to pleasing western interests. Forces were landed from the German menof-war in the harbor of Apia, and they took possession of the town, which was placed under martial law. No resistance was offered, Mataafa with his troops having retired into •„he interior. The only people left in the place were women, children, a few old men and the foreign residents. The latter were not 'uolested. - In reply to a question of Mr. Stewart, in regard to what he thought was necessary to be done at this time, Mr. Frye said: "There is not a fourth rate power iu Europe which, If it been a party to a conference with Germany as to the autonomy and independence of Samoa, and if Germany, pending that conference, and without notice, had deliberately ordered her ships of war to violate that autonomy and independence, would not have nskod its life on the demand for an immediate restoration of the status quo. A European power could not be found that would not have done it I am not saying what, in my opinion, ought to be done now. I prefer that the committee on foreign relations should report in the senate in due form and after deliberation what ought to be done.

Already several thousand have been subscribed for. The oft repeated declaration that Gen. Alger is to be secretary of war has seriously disgruntled Senator Sherman, who holds the man from Michigan responsible for the disintegration of his forces at Chicago last summer. Mr. Sherman has not been to Indianapolis, and some of his friends give as the reason the amount of consideration Gen. Harrison has manifested toward Gen. Alger. It is even hinted (hatMr. Sherman has formally protested against the recognition of Alger, and that if the appointment is made the administration will receive no active support from the Ohio senator. Certain it is that /' good deal of feeling has been aroused, and the Sherman men are most open and emphatic ui their denunciation of Gen. Alger. The declaration of war against Mataafa was made by the German authorities on the spot, without waiting for ordera from their government, but there is reason to believe that they acted under previous instructions providing for the contingency of a native outbreak.

They returned a few hours later, 1,000 strong, and were again attacked by the police, twenty-eight in number, and a bloody battle ensued, fifteen minutes. The uniformed men used their clubR freely and effectively, but the men fought back with stones, brickbats, sticks—anything, in fact, that could be used for a missile. Women in the tenement houses took a hand in, and poured volleys of stones down on the heads of the police. One woman was arrested. She did some very effective work, firing bricks from a third story window of a tenement. WAITING FOR A CAR. Mr. Frye read to the senate « press dispatch whioh had been in circulation ou the floor for some timo, giving in a cable message from London an account of the condition of affairs in Samoa. If these statements were true, he ■aid, three assertions are made by Germans in Samoa. One was the right of search of American vessels going into the harbors of a nation with which we are in treaty relations. The second was the suppression of free speech. The other was assuming the control of the police of Apia—a municipality which by the agreement between Germany, England and the United States and the Samoan king was made neutral ground.

In my opinion there is every reason why he should be called to the chief place, and I believe he will. If Senator Allison goes into the cabinet I am just as confident that he will only do so under pressure. In my talk with Gen. Harrison a month ago, from what he said I know he wants Allison to accept the treasury portfolio, and I believe he will even pu;,h it upon him. London, Feb. 1.—The declaration of war against Mataafa, the king of Samoa, by the Germans, it fully confirmed by an official announcement from Berlin. Mr. Hale agreed with Mr. Frye that the time to discuss the question fully had not come. He was willing to leave to the administration the disposition of the money to be appropriated. He thought that the affair involved more than the performances of a private trading firm. He was constrained to believe that what had been done in Samoa was done in the line of German intervention in pursuance of a policy of the German government He hoped that a wise course would be pursued by the executive, and that we should not be unnecessarily involved in important steps that would lead to great and (it might be) deplorable results, unlesM it appeared that the rights of American citizens had been interfered with, and that everything was necessary to preserve those rights. lOo lb  BUTTER—hy the tub, 23c.

The Augusta dispatches, which were deplored as bearing too palpable ana ixji.. Hying marks of truthfulness, are called in question and frequent expression is heard of the belief that their publication is only an effort, bolder than any previously made, of Blaine's friends to lay for him violent hands upon the state portfolio. There was current a declaration that Gen. Harrison would in a day or two give to the press for publication the correspondence appertaining to Mr. Blaine's selection and acceptance, bnt the statement could be traced to no reliable source.

The officers, after being knocked down and otherwise roughly handled, drew their revolvers and fired into the ah'. Several of the men in the crowd also drew pistols and fired at the officers. Tho officers were not hit, but one of tho shots aimed at them struck the prisoner Nesdale in the back. At this juncture an additional number of policemen reached the scene and the crowd was quickly dispersed, and the wounded prisoner taken to a hospital.
