It is a curious illustration of our methods of
legislation that at Icnst one-third of the men
who voted for the tariff bill In the house yes
terday rushed Immediately to the other end
of the cnpltol and applied for hearings before
the committee of finance in supportof amend
ments they desired to make to the bill. They
volcd for Iho measure under party pressure
nnd by dictation of the caucus. They wcro
not permitted to offer amendments , nnd those
that were offered wcro not fairly voted upon.
One member dared not to vote ngalnst the
committee in favor of the amendment offered
by another member , although ho knew It to
tie right , because ho feared the adverse action
of the committee upon some interest thnt wns
vital to his district. If , for example , every
man who was in favor of removing the duty
on lumber hnd voted thnt way the amend
ment would hnvo been carried by nn over
whelming majority , but very few dared
to vote according to their con-
Tlctions because they knew that
they would bo punished for so doing by the
committee1 by those who wished to main
tain u high duty upon the article.
There is n great deal of dissatisfaction be
cause amendments and debates were shut off.
"I nm all right , " said n certain member of
congress this morning , "but I had a
narrow escape. The only things in
the bill that I cared anything
about wcro to keep the duty on lumber nnd u
duty off hides , I have lots of lumber and
lots of tanneries in my district and If the
duty on one hud been lowered and n duty im
posed on the other I should have been polit
ically ruined , but I have slipped through
without nny injury and now I must keep
things straight in the senate. "
These remarks express the sentiment of
about , half of the representatives of the re
publican side. Most of the other side are dis
satisfied nnd will try and secure amendments
to Iho bill In the senate. Their right to do so
Is conceded by the republican leaders in the
house , nnd even Mr. Mclxinlcy himself docs
not expect and never intended that this bill
should become a law as it was reported from
Ills committee. The senate commillco on
ilnnnco will reform it nil together nud sub-
Btltuto- the tariff bill that was passed by the
senate at tlto Inst session of co'ngress , or some
thing very like it.
ALLISON ON Tim M'KINI.RT nn-i/ .
1 asked Senator Allison this afternoon what
ho thought the .senate committee would do
With Iho tariff bill. Ho said that ho could
not say , as ho was only one of the committee.
"I have hesitated about criticising the bill ns
long ns It was in the bouse , but now thnt it
lias come over to the senate I feel nt liberty
to say that the duties nro in many cases
higher than are necessary , and I shall udvo.
cato the reduction of duties on every article
BO far'ns is consistent with Iho proper protec
tion of American industry against foreign
rivals. "

1'CXSION CONFnilCNCK.
The conference committee on the pension
bill had another meeting today and has sub
stantially agreed upon the senate bill. It
will hold another meeting on Tuesday next ,
when it is expected it will make its tinnl re
port , nnd us has been stated In these dis
patches from the beginning , will accept the
Bcnalo bill as it stands.
NIXT IN onmit. :
Now that the tariff bill is out of the way it
Is expected the customs' administrative-
will bo tnkon up nnd disposed of at once.
Tito bill is in the hands of n , conference com
mittee consisting of Messrs. Allison , Aldrlch
nnd McPherson on Iho part of the senate , and
Messrs. McKlnloy , Burrows und Carlisle on
the part of the house. As Mr. Carlisle has
been elected to the senate ho will doubtless
retire from the conference committee and
Homo one else will bo appointed in
his place. The members of the house
do net quite like the amendments added
to the bill in the senate , but there arc no dif
ferences between the members of the commit
tee , and they will probably come to nn agree
ment within u few days. This bill is being
bitterly opposed by many of the agents of
foreign manufacturers in Now York , but its
passage is urged by every importer who has
Leon engaged in the war against undervalua
tions , and It Is particularly in the interest of
western merchants.
OIIUIINAL I'ACKAai : TALK.
The silver bill had Its inning in the semite
today and the "original package. " bill had to
go over , but Senator Wilson , who has it in
charge , told mo that he should call It up at
every opportunity and hoped to got It through
before Iho end of the month. The butter men
ure alarmed at the discovery that oleomargar
ine can bo shipped In the .same manner us
whisky under the original package de
cision , nnd it is feared that the
manufacturers of oleomargarine will take ad
vantage of this decision to flood the markets
with patent butter in dolhinco of laws that
exist In Now York nnd other states prohibit
ing its sale. The agent of the New York
Dairymen's association Is bore looking after
the amendment to the bill to cover the butter
. Intelo-st and say that something must bo done
nt once , because. SISO.IHIO.OOO of capital Is in
terested nnd the farmers of New York pro
duce f lfi,000.0K ( ) worth of butter a year on n
very narrow margin of prollt. Ho claims
that two or three months of free tmdo In
oleoinargnrinu.would ruin half the dairymen
in the state.
The brewers' congress now In session in

Ill view of the fact that the senate is going

BIG GUNS AT THE II All.
Whnt Litigants arc Compelled to Pay
for Their Services. > .
Everybody knows that lawyers abound
in Now York city. They occupy the
lion's shareof spnco in the biff ofllco
buildings in the lower purt of the city ,
und their shingles nro thickly sprinkled
through the uptown streets , stiys the
Now York Herald. The outnumber the
doctors , the bnkors and saloonkeepers ,
the corner grpcors and the followers of
any ono profession , triulo or business in
the metropolis ; and yet , despite the com
petition , tlicro never was a time when
fees wore larger on an average , and
there is still plenty of room at the top of
the bar , though it is no easy matter to
climb there.
There about seven thousand members
of the bar whoso names appear in the
legal directory. Many of these attor
neys innko comfort able fortunes each
year they are the princes of the pro
fession. An army of legal paupers keep
on the lookout for the crumbs of litiga
tion these great men would not care to
touch , nnd after great struggles for busi
ness earn less , wages than a good me
chanic.
Like the physicians the lawyers have
been devoting themselves to specialties
to a great extent during the past few
years , and many of them have wholly
given up general practice. In the good
old days lawyers of note reached out
for every client they could possibly got ,
and took any business that cumo their
way. The tendency of Into bus bcon to
drift moro and moro into special lines ;
Bomo wealthy lawyers uro never seen In
a courthouse nowadays , others devote
their whole time to active litigation.
Law ilrms have grown rich by attending
solely to real estate law , to commercial
law , to admirality practice and to other
branches of the profession. Perhaps
the most eminent specialist in the city
was Edward N. Dickinson , who towered"
over the crowd in a court intellectually
us well as physically , and who was gen
erally recognized for many years as the
leading patent lawyer of the United
States. Ho is said to have earned several
§ 50,000 fees.
Famous lawyers can usually command
largo fees , bnt what the annual income
of most of them is would bo a very dilll-
cult matter to determine. It occasion-
nil happens , however , that some big fee
comes to public notice , but as a general
thing only the lawyer and his client are
in a position to give the exact amount ,
I never heard of a larger fee than
$250,000 , and that was paid to Henry L.
Clinton fo& his services in the contest
over the will of Cornelius Vnmlerbilt.
Since ho received this fee Mr. Clinton
bus retired from active practice.
It would b idle to guess at the figures
paid to the lawyers engaged in the Stew
art will contest , but they must luivobcon
simply enormous with such men in court
as .lo.-ojih II. C'hoates , ox-Attorney Gen
eral Leslie W. Ilu i'll , ox-L'nited States
District Attorney EHuh Hoot , ex-Surro
gate Daniel G. Uolllns , ex-.Iudgo Gilbert
and Stephen P. Niibh. In the beginning
of the contest ex-Senator Ilosuoo Conk-
ling appeared for ox-Judge Henry Hil

consisted of Grand Master Hanks of Dubuque ,
Grand Recorder Whttnker of Waterloo nnd
Grand Medical Examiner Blytho of Norn

Council Bluffs to the leading dallies an
nouncing the fact that the grand lodgcut | the
session just closed in Council Bluffs , had con
sidered the question of uniting with the so-
called "supremo" faction of the Ancient
Order of United Workmen in this stnto
caused considerable comment among the local
members of the order. In uu interview with
the above officers it was learned that the
question of nmalgainatton was not discussed
In any particular by the grand lodge.
In fact , the second day of the session the fol
lowing resolution was unanimously passed :

than four times been declared the only lawful
Ancient Order of United Workmen organisa

gation arising from the division of the order
in lown was terminated about a year ago ,
since which time the so-called "loyal" faction
has only made a pretense to an existence. It
has no legal one. Grand Muster Hanks re
ports the affairs of the order in n very flatter

Insurance Men Discuss the
Feeling in This Country.
[ Copurtuht 1SSO tin James ( Ionian HcmicU. ]
LivElirooL , May ± 2. [ Now York Herald
Cable Special to Tin : BEE. ] At the fifty-
eighth annual meeting of the Liverpool and
London and Globe insurance company yester
day Hon. Carr G. Lynn said there was a pos
sibility , at least ho was told so , of hostile leg-
islatlon In the United Stntcs ngalnst English
Insurance companies. Now this was u mat
ter which might effccfrtho-Jwiverpool-aiid Lon
don and Globu very seriously. Speaking for
themselves , it wns.not very much to bo won
dered at , looking nt the largo profits the Eng
lish companies derive from American busi
ness. They hnd to remember the interests of
the company were in the hands
of officers nnd boards of directors
possessed of n vt'ry ' high business capacity
and Intelligence , and if such n contingency
did occur ho wns quite sure thnt if they
could not obviate it they would do all they
could to mitigate It.
Mr. Templetho subsequent speakerpointed
out that the directors had'taken powers from
the company in America , if they found It
desirable. Although Iho Americans threat
ened a good , deal regarding what belonged to
themselves , they wcro the most free-going
people in the world in trying to take from
other people that which belonged to other
people also. Ho hnd himself been interested
iir property in America , and insured it in
an American oflico. The payment of the
premium was the easiest part of it , for when
they had to collect n loss they might consider
themselves very fortunate if they got a per
centage.
Mr. Vnlly , in proposing n vote of thanks ,
said that if the legislation of the United
Stntes was not hostile It was simply on ac
count of the activity , influence nnd zeal with
which their board In New York , together
with other boards in Now York representing
grent English companies in thatcountry ,
were perpetually on the watch to bring to the
notice of the people of the United States the
fairness to which they should consider those
who played so largo n part in protecting them
from the risks they ran nnd which they ran
with groaler courage than wo did in this
country.

CHICAGO , May 22. The American Baptist
publication society today elected Samuel A
Crozer of Pennsylvania president. A largo
number of other officers wcro also elected. A
committee report was ndoptcd recommending
that the managers appoint men to prepare u
caterhlsm for use In Sunday schools.
At tno uliernuon session a sensational epIsode -
Isodo occurred involving the race question.
Rev. A. BJnga of Virginia presented a protest
fiom the Virginia state association of col
ored Baptists condemning the pub
lication society for an indignity
offered the colored people by dropping ,
through race prejudice , the names of Revs.
Lowe. Simmons nnd Brooks from the list of
contributors to the Baptist Teacher. Mr.
Bingn Jlrmly demanded an explanation of the
dropping of his three colored brethren.
General Secretary Griffiths assumed nil re
sponsibility. He said the three ministers In
question hail said wnrm things during the
bitter troubles at Indianapolis last year ,
which the people had aggregated and mis
understood. The three were thereby unfitted
to serve as edltorlnl writers , and the publish
ers , who had the right , so Informed them.
At the conclusion of Dr. Griffith's remarks
the protest was referred to the board of niuim-
gcrs. It was intimated during the discus
sion on the mutter that unless something was
done to counteract the effect of the dismissal
of the three colored writers , the Baptists ate
liable to hnvo their hold on the colored race
weakened.

'
dered him by thtT'Lomlon chamber of com
merce. Speaking of his travels , ho remarked
that In 1870 It was reported thnt Dr. Liv
ingston was lost nnd the Now York Herald
sent the speaker to Hnd him. Ho ( Stanley )
did so nnd returned to Zanzibar and England
nnd reported what had been dono. They said
ho ( Stanley ) was an Impostor , sensationalist
nnd forger , but time had disproved those no-
cusatlons nnd Livingston's last Journals
proved that ho ( Stanley ) had done
what ho hnd snid , but because
ho was n mere Journalist and penny-a-liner It
wns supposed that all penny-n-llncrs wcro
sensationalists. In 1874 ho went bnck ngaifl
to Africa. Stanley then described his travels
nnd pointed out thnt although so much had
bcon done by English travelers to open the
dark regions of Africa , yet this country failed
to tuko advantage of tholr discoveries. In n
bantering manner Stanley spoke of the great
Interest the German * hnd manifested in the
flora nnd fauna of Africa , whilst on the part
of this country there was , nn indifference ns
to what actually was occurring. A number of
his friends , however , had come together to
try nnd do something In the regions which
they hnd snid should have been English or n
portion of the British poHse slons some time.
They hnd raised $ . " ) IKOM ) , , but what w.is the
consequence ! Instead of being permitted to
make a road which , without deviating to the
right or loft , should go straight to the prom
ising land , they were compelled to squander
some thousands of pounds In lighting the
government. If it were merely n question of
rivalry between an English and a German
company ho should not mind , but when the
government backed up Iho German company
i.t was not n fair light , and that capital which
would have made a railway right up to,1 -
torla Nyunzn would bo wasted , instead
of the people in two years' time
being nllo to take ' tickets to
Victoria Nyanza. [ Laughter. ] For the
money expended there would bo nothing to
show except n bushel of treaties. He could
speak very forcibly , but ho was restrained.
If the fairest portion of Africa wore to bo
given up to others and only sterile lands be
left , lie would bo ono of the first to ndvibo
thoBrilish company to retire. Ho thought
ho hnd said enough. A word to the wise wns
sufficient. Ho hoped they would remember
nnd ponder over whnt he had said.

PAWS , Mny 22. [ New York Herald Cable
Special to Tin : Bui--Last : ] week
the London Truth printed In a let
ter from its Paris correspondent a paragraph
in which Prince Hatzfeldt was referred to us
a gambler nnd hanger-on about eircus stables ,
while Princess Hat/.feldt was doelnred to be
weary of her exulted position. The 111050111
issue of Truth contains an apology for these
uncomplimentary assertions. In search of
further informution regnrdlng the affair , the
Herald correspondent called upon Prince
Hatzfeldt later in the day. "I need not go
into details , " said the prince ,
"about- the i b ; iyrOnnd v-malicious
charges which were mndo against'me In the
previous issue of Truth , nnd which , by "tlie
bye , wcro entirely Inciting in truth. Lubou-
chcro's apology is ample enough to convince
anyone thnt the Paris correspondent who
wrote the first article was cither grossly
misinformed or was trying to satisfy some
potty spito. The writer of this article must
bo u person singularly ignorant of the usages
of European society , for lie says that should
I bring Princess Hut/.feldt to Vienna , she
would not , for want of birth , bo admitted to
any of the houses of the great and illustrious
where I would bo received. This , of course ,
is absolutely ridiculous In every way. 1
wonder when certain newspapers will
get .tired of riucing these eternal
changes on the fact that 1 now nnd then pass
away nu hour playing cards ! Whnt gentle
man doesn't ! And then they pietcnd to bo
horrified because I prefer baccarat to euchre
or whist. Baccarat is a Parisian game ,
played ut the most respectable Parisian dubs.
If I like it it is my own business. Some
pcoplo llko to sing for pennies , which Is their
business , and neither in ono case nor the
other have the newspapers any right to pry
Into a gentleman's private life. In the mat
ter I refer to Labouchero , who Is certainly
not afraid of lighting , recognized his mis
take on all the points referred to and
waswiso enough to avoid , by a courteous re
traction , an action for-libel , which I should
otherwise have brought against him. There

the Herald calls the gift enterprise sheet ,
which mny Just ns well profit by this little in
