It has been Iho desire ot tno War department that this officer should leave the active service , and efforts have been made during the past two years to attain this end , first through Intimations to the friends of Colonel Crofton that his retirement would be granted If applied for. and this falHng , through that law which obliges an officer to retire If found physically unfit for service toy a medi cal board. The lost course was adopted about nlno months ago , but also without SUCC03B , the board finding tbo oillcer was In good condition physically. Finally re course has been had to the law which per mits the president to retire an oillcer arbi trarily when he shall have reached 02 years ot ago. Colonel Crofton passed this mile stone lust month , and the law has been ap plied to his caso. This is a most unusual proceeding , the labt Instance of a forced retirement being In the case of General Carr , who was torccd In order to permit the promotion of oincers below him In rank , fcolonel Crofton was In command of the Fifteenth infantry while the organization v. -stationed at Fort Sheri dan , near Chicago , and was , whether Justly or not , held responsible for the many Inci dents In the history o that post which fur nished matter for theicoujls. Colonel Crof ton had a good war record. Ho- was made major for gallant cbndu6t. He became colonel ot tha Fifteenth , Infantry In October , 18M , and Is now stationed at Fort Bayard , N.

WASHINGTON , Feb. 4.-Tho session ot the senate today was one ot unusual ac tivity , with sharp colloquies and vigorous speeches , which tlrow largo crowds to the Eallnrles. The ball was set rolling early In the day when Mr. Morrtll endeavored to pass the bill prohibiting the use ot Intoxi cants in the capltol building. This aroused the opposition of Mr. Hill ot Now York , who denounced the busybodles and inlschlet- makcra Inspiring this class of legislation. The senator spoke for the fullest enjoyment of Individual liberty consistent with the common good. The speech was not only notable for the vigor which Mr. Hill threw Into It , but also for Its effect In prolonging the debate until 2 o'clock , when the bill was displaced by the Nicaragua bill. The bill was committed to conference. Mr. Lodge , In charge of the measure , adopted this course as a result of urgent appeals for a modification of the bill. Be fore this was done , however , n warm por- conal and political colloquy occurred be tween Mr. Lodge and Mr. Chandler on one hand and Mr. Gorman on the other. The Maryland senator took exception to recent suggestions of ttoamship and corporate Influ ence and declared thcro would bo ample op portunity within the next year for republican senators to resist the corporate Influences at work after March 4. In reply Mr. Chand ler assorted that the Maryland senator had for the first tlnio turned an Immigration debate Into partisan channels. Mr. Vllas added another day to his speech against the Nicaragua canal bill , and had not concluded when the senate adjourned. Regarding the sale of liquor In the capl tel .Jlr. Mori-Ill said there was much feeling against It. lie had Just received a letter stating the writer had seen a man coming from the building drunk. Whllo there was some misapprehension as to the existence of ordinary saloons In the building , yet the public felt that If an evil existed congress should make a strict prohibition. Mr. Sherman asked It It was right that any part of this great public building should bo used for the sale of liquor. Mr. Sher man did not bellevo the public idea that saloons existed hero was Justified. Thcro was nothing like an ordinary bar here. Hut the laws had been made stringent , so that when a man wanted whisky he would have to go outside the capltol to got It. MR. HILL SPEAKS. Mr. Hill came Into the debate at this point , speaking with much vehemence against the "busybodles" and "mischief- makers" who libelled congress and Inspired this class1 of legislation. Ho had received many letters , ho said , protesting against "this abomination In our national capltol. " Such statements were false. No such thing as a bar existed here. Mr. Hill read In sar castic tones a letter appealing to him to aid In driving saloons from the capltol and thus "raise the standard of national honor. " "Has our national honor como to this , " exclaimed Mr. Hill , "that It depends upon whether we take a glass ot ale or beer -with our meals ? " This appeal to national honor , ho added , was becoming a common device every time some small question presented Itself. But there was no question of national honor Involved In this imattcr. "Thsro are no saloons hers ; there Is , no drunkenness here ; I have never seen a drunken man In the capitol ; I state fgr the benefit of these agi tators that It is a libel on congress to say that saloons are here and drunkenness ex ists here. It is absolutely false. " The discussion next took a somewhat humorous turn. Mr. Chandler , Mr. Galllnger and Mr. Gray exchanging sallies as to the effect of the bill in restricting the personal comfort of senators. The roll call on Mr. Hill's motion to com mit was followed with great Interest. It was a tie at first , but the summoning of senators defeated the motion : yeas , 27 ; nays , 30. As the vote was announced Mr. Hill re marked : "And having brought the bill before the senate , senators can now proceed to take"a glass of beer. " He went on to speak of the hypocrisy of the bill. It was soon evident the senator would talk against this measure until 2 o'clock , when the bill would bo cut off by the Nicaragua canal bill. He spoke of the extremes to which prohibition legislation had been carried , and the oxcesslvo punish ment indicted. The violation of an excise law had. ho said , become -worse than murderer or burglary. This sort ot legislation would not do. It was unwise and unnecessary. Under it the venerable senator from Ver mont ( Morrlll ) could he taken out of the senate on a charge of violating the excise laws. Under It senators would find on reachIng - Ing the cliamber some day that one-half of their associates were in the police court for violation of the excise laws. Mr. Hill talked up to 2 o'clock , when the bill was displaced and the Nicaragua canal bill was taken up. Before proceeding with the debate , Mr. Morgan , democrat ot .Alabama . , presented a resolution requesting the president for In formation as to the arrest of Carpar Uetan- courtat Havana , whether a demand for his release had been made , etc. The resolution was agreed to , IMMIGRATION BILL. Mr. Lodge endeavored to have the canal bill glvo way temporarily to permit action on the conference report on the Immigra tion bill. An objection being made , Mr. Ledge moved to take up the Immigration re port and the motion prevailed , 35 to 13. Mr. Hill appealed to Mr. Lodge , In charge of the bill , to allow the bill to ho recom mitted for modifications In the age and Il literacy provisions. Mr. Chandler seconded the appeal , saying a recommittal would se cure the desirable end of uniting political parties on Immigration legislation. Mr , Ledge yielded to the appeals and thereupon moved the senate disagree to the conference - enco report. Mr. Gorman , democrat of Maryland , made an emphatic protest against the recent statement of Mr. Ledge that the opposition to the bill was duo to corporation and steamship Influenco. Ho hoped the sen ator ( Lodge ) would haye occasion during the next year of opposing the power nt corporations , It was corporate power which : md largely controlled In the selection of : ho president for the next four years , Mr. Chandler said the language of the Maryland senator Implied a threat that If this bill was not shaped to suit him then ministering would bo resorted to. This was an extraordinary statement. This senator ; Gorman ) had for the first tlmu Injected fiarty politics Into the Immigration ques tion. tion.Mr. . Carter , republican of Montana , criti cised the provisions against the Immigration of Canadians across the border and said the provisions , if carried out , would warrant retaliation against the act. The motion to disagree to the conference report was then adopted without division. The debate on the Nlcaraguan bill was then resumed , Mr. Vllas speaking In oppo sition.Mr. . Vllas had not concluded when , at G:15 : p. in , , the senate went Into executive session and soon after adjourned , IIllllMU ItOllllllO , WASHINGTON , Feb. 4.

KIXIXCJ TUBTAllfrFSCHI3UIU.US. Ilriuilillcnni ( ! cf Him die \ MV 11111 Ncnrlj" Into Simile. WASHINGTON. Feb. 4. The dully ses sions of the republican members of the ways nnd means committee , which have born In progress for two weeks , have brought the tariff bill , which Is to bo laid before the next congress , to n singe where the character of the measure can bo somewhat gauged and where certain of I ho most Important schedules arc definitely fixed. In the conferences the tariff makers have dealt largely with the Keiirral char acter of tlip schedules which they hove had under consideration. Four schedules have now been fairly completed the chemical , agricultural , \\lncs and spirits , nnd rarthcn and glassware schedules. Today's meeting was the most Important of the series , for It resulted In the framing of the agricultural schedule , which was made a rc-cnactment of the MoKlnley law with few changes ex cept on unimportant products. The moit Important step In connection with this was the establishment of rates of $5 a head on cattle moro than 1 jear old nnd of 25 per cent ad valorem on cattle valued at more than $20 a head. The Me- Kluley rates on other live stock , Including the rate of $2 on cattle of 1 year old or less , are restored , The Wilson rates were 20 per cent nd valorem on live stock , and while the new duty ot $5 on cattle docs not reach the McKlnlcy figure ot $10 on cattle moro than 1 year old , It Is expected that with the ad valorem on the moro valuable grades It will prove adequate to shut out Mexican cattle. It Is against the Mexican stock that the increase is tuado directly on the representations of western cnttlo- men that their business had been ruined by tlio Importations from Mexico under the Wilson law , which amounted to moro than 200,000 head. Much Intertst centered upon barley , which the committee puts back to the McKlnley duty of 30 cents n bushel , because the far- mom cortcided : that the Wilson tariff had turned over the market Into the hands of the Cunndlars , while the maltsters who have been using Canadian barley have made a haul fight against any Increase. The McKlnley rates have been restored on fruits and berries , mainly for the bene fit ot the fruit growers of the Pacific coabt. Thu fruit exchanges of the country had prepared - pared a schedule of rates below the McKln ley law , although above the Wilson rates , but they did not succeed In having this adopted. Among the products In the agricultural scliFdulo which are returned to the McKlnley rates nre breadstufls and rice , dairy prod ucts , potatoes and starch , castor beans and ilaxsoed , meats and meat products , egga and poultry , vegetables and salt. The demand of the farmers for the McKlnley rate of $1 a ton on hay. Instead of the Wilson rate of S2 was planted. Chicory Is placed at 1 cent n pound , In accotd.uico with the requests of the growers In the central states , who believe that they can capture the home market with pro tection. Kates on oranges have not been fixed yet , but It has been decided to change the , classification and make the rates higher than' those ot the McKlnley bill for tha benefit ot the California interests. In the chemical schedule many ot the Wilson rates Will be retained. The Wilson duties on soaps and on sodas and kindred chemicals , which are the raw materials of soap , are left unchanged. The present rates onoils , Including castor oil , also will be retained , except where changes are made necessary by the restoration of duties on the raw materials which enter Into them , as In the ease of linseed oils. There will be but slight changes In the rates on ] > alnts and dye stuffs and their constituent ele ments. The duties on borate of lime will be 2 cents per pound , on refined borax 3 cents , boraclc acid 3 cents. The duties on lead In ores are placed at 1 cent a pound , on pig lead 2 cents , on white lead and lead acetates 2 % cents. The committee has decided to retiln the Wilson rates on wines and spirits through out the wine and spirits schedules. This schedule of the Wilson act was generally higher In Its rates than in the McKlnley acts , The committee 1 as devoted time to the con sideration of schedules of manufactured iron and steel , but has not perfected them yet. In the cotton schedules there will bo few changes , except in rates on finery , yarns and costly fabrics. The changes In the iron and steel schedules will bo limited to a few specialties , like cotton , ties , on which McKlnley duties will bo re-established , on tin plate , which has not been settled , and some forms of tube steel and surgical Instruments. No other schedule has given the commlt- tee so much trouble as the one which in cludes earths , earthenware and glassware. It has been claimed by all the pottery and glass Interests that the Wilson law has proved destructive to their Interests , and that no system of ad valorem levies could properly protect them. Accordingly tlio committee- has determined to adjust tlio items of the schedule to such specific duties as will be equal to the duties of the McKln ley law , most of which were ad valorem. On account of the decorative features of such wares , which often are the chief cle ment In their value , It Is particularly diffi cult to adjust a satisfactory specific rate. Plato class has been arranged as follows : Under 10x24 Inches , S cents per square foot ( present rate , 5 cents ) ; above 10x24 and not exceeding 24x30 Inches , 12 cents [ present rate , 8 cents ) ; above 21x30 and not exceed ing 21xW Inches , the present rate of 22V > cents ; all above 24xCO , the present rate of 35 cents. Lumber will bo Iho uoxt subject which will engage the committee , Throughout the work the policy of establishing specific rates wherever It was found possible to tub- stltuto them tor ad valorem has been fol lowed. The Interests of farmers , it Is stated , have been particularly observed In fixing duties for the purpose of protection. On the other hand the increases on manufactured good ? , most of thorn , have been on higher grades of goods and those which are con sidered luxuries. I'II < C > II < M fin * Western Iiivcntorx.

Secretary Francis , In n decision rover-sins the opinion of the commissioner of the fed eral land ofllcp , determined the question as to whether or not registers and receivers ot land ofllccs are entitled to fees for each quarter section entry made by desert land states under- the Carey net donating 1,000,000 acres of desert lands to such states as would agree to reclaim them. The case which was decided today was the appeal of local officers nt Evanston , Wyo. , from the commissioner's decision that under the Carey act no fees could be charged for the reason that its framcrs Intended that the states should not ba obliged to pay 1 cent under any pretext for such land. The secretary took n dif ferent view of the law and says that for all tracts of ICO acres the stale shall pay $1 each to the register and receiver.
