Wahiiinoto.v, July !20.--Tim confer
ences report on the turiir bill was adopt
ed by tho house shortly nfter midnight
by a vote of 185 to 115, and ut noon to
day the report will go to the senate
for action there. This eclipses all
previous records. T,hc result was ac
complished after 12 hours of continu
ous debate. l?ut two speeches were
made by the republicans one by Mr.
Dingley in opening1 the debate, and
one by Mr. I'ayne, of New York, in
closing it. In all ten democrat and
one populist speeches were made. The
sugar schedule was the main point of
assault. The galleries were crowded
tip to the time the vote was taken,
many distinguished people being pres
ent. the democrats, with five exceptions,
voted against the report. The excep
tions were Slayden, of Texas; P.rous
sard, of Louisiana; Meyer, of Louis
iana; Davey, of Louisiana, and Kie
bcrg, of Texas. The populists and sil
vcrites did not vote solidly. Messrs.
Shafroth, of Colorado, and Newlands,
of Nevada, silverites, abstained from
voting. Mr. llartman, silverite, Mon
tana, did not vote. The populists who
voted against the report were as fol
lows: Jtakcr, Harlow, Uotkin, Fowler,
Jctt, Lewis, Marshall, Martin, Peters,
Simpson, Strowd and Vincent. Four
did not vote Howard, Kelley, Stark
and Sutherland. The other populists
were absent. An analysis of the vote
shows that ISO republicans and five
democrats voted for the report and 100
democrats and 1'2 populists against it.
The linal conference report on the
general deficiency appropriation bill
was adopted. This out of the way,
Mr. Dingley arose, and holding aloft
the report and a great mass of papers,
he said in calm tones: "Mr. Speaker,
I desire to present the conference re
port on the tarilt' bill."
Salvos of applause from the repub
lican side greeted this announcement.
An ell'ort was made to secure an agree
ment for a vote. Mr. Hailey said the
minority desired three days, but know
ing they could not obtain them, would
be satisfied with two. Mr. Dingley
refused to agree to this, saying: "Talk
at this time is very expensive. It costs
the treasury S100.000 a day." "Not so
expensive as tho ton days you spent in
arranging this meeting schedule with
the sugar trust," retorted Mr. Hailey,
amid a counter-round of applause by
his followers. All eil'orts to reach an
agreement failed, and Mr. Dingley
opened his speech on the conference
report, lie took up each schedule, ex
plaining in detail the changes made,
and following closely the formal state
ment given oat by the committee.
As to the question of revenue to be
raised by the bill, Mr. Dingley point
ed out the ditlieulty resulting from the
large anticipatory importations. The
bill next 3' ear, he calculated, would
raise S'iW.OOO.OOO, 875,000.000 more than
the present ltuv. Over S 10,000,000 had
been lost in this year's revenues 1)3 the
importations of wool and sugar and
other things, the duty on which was
raised in the bill, so that he calculated
that the bill this 3'ear would raise
185,000,000. Mr. 'Dingley declared
that there was no doubt that the rev
enue produced by the bill would be
ample to meet the expenditures of the
government.
Mr. Wheeler, of Alabama, opened
the debate for the democrats, criticis
ing tiie bill as the most vicious and
burdensome ever imposed on the Ameri
can people. In particular he discussed
the serious effect of the measure on
the workingmen and agriculturists.
Mr. Wheeler referred to the advance
on sugar stock in New York market
to-day, and said this was the clearest
evidence of the benefits conferred on
the sugar trust. Mr. Swanson, of Vir
ginia, a member of the wa3'sand means
committee, to whom Mr. Wheeler
yielded a portion of his time, devoted
his attention to assailing the sugar
schedule agreed upon by the conferees,
lie asserted that the proposed sched
ule gave sugar double the protection
received under the present law. He
then compared the two schedules to
show that the duty on refined sugar
in the senate schedule and the new
bchedule were exactly the same.
Mr. Dingley openly avowed that the
schedule gave a slight additional pro
tection to refined sugar, but at the
same time it raised raw all along the
line. Then, amid a storm of cheers,
Mr. Dingley demanded the previous,
question on the adoption of the confer
ence report. Considerable excitement
occurred while the vote was being
taken. When the speaker announced
the vote 15 ayes, lis nays the repub
licans broke into loud cheers. The
house then, at 1:!7 a. m., took a recess
until Wednesday.
)isci'ssi:i) 1 in: hai:i:is ur.soi.i'fo.v.
WASin.NCijo.s, July .'0. The t.ay in
the senate yesterday was principally
devoted to a discussion of Mr. Harris'
resolution relating to the Union Pacific
railroad. Mr. Morgan, of Alabama,
concluded his remarks in favor of the
resolution, and Mr. Stewart spoke in
opposition to it.
MILES OF FREIGHT CARS.
They Arc Hrliur Iluulod Into PUo Wfntrrn
Stuti'x to Moo tho Wlimit Crop.
Kansas Citv, Mo., July Ut. Long
trains of empty freight cars miles and
miles of freight cars have rolled out
of Kansas City for two weeks and
dropped oil' in twos, three, fives, some
times tens, on sidetracks along the
lines of the railroads in Missouri, Iowa,
Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma.
These emptj' freight cars and there
are thousands of them will bo
filled with new '07 wheat, and
be coming back again. There will
be the biggest kind of a grain
rush inside of four or five weeks, and
the best of management by railroad of
ficials will be needed to prevent a huge
grain blockade, or what will be almost
as bad, a grain car famine. Conserva
tive estimates of crop statisticians
place the yiuhl of wheat for this
year in Kansas alone at 00,000,000
bushels, and there is a possibility
that it will be even larger than this.
The railroad men do not look for
all of this grain to rush into the mar
ket at once, because there are many
farmers in Kansas who can afford to
hold their wheat for higher prices. Hut
the railroad men have assurances tnat
enough of it will be sent in eurly to
create a big grain movement, and
therefore they are busy now preparing
to handle the business that will start
about August 1 and continue heavy
until the winter season.
MAY REFUSE LOW RATES.
Kiirttrrn anil AVohHtii ItiillrouilH Find No
I'rollt In lilt; Convi'iitlon Trulllr.
Kansas City, Mo., July 10. Trafllc
men of both eastern and western lines
are considering the advisabilit3' of re
fusing in the future to make low rates
for national gatherings. This 3'ear
more than any other has shown to tho
railroad men that it is foolish from
a revenue standpoint to make low
rates for these big meetings. Tho
fact is more apparent this 3'ear be
cause the big meetings have conic
close together. Western men declare
that the Christian Fndeavor excur
sions have reduced their local business
to almost nothing. Passenger trains
running regularly have not in them
enough passengers to keep the conduct
ors bus3'. What few are traveling are
business men. Eastern trallic men re
port as poor business in their territory.
Local trains run almost empt3' and
would have no passengers were it not
for the fact that some people arc
obliged to travel. The reason for this
state of affairs is the cheap rate for
big meetings.
TRADE WITH HAWAII.
United Stuti-H Controls 1'itlly DO l'or Cent,
of tlio IhIiiikI'h Commerce.
Washington, .Inly 1!). Hawaiian
commerce during the last ten 3'ears is
the subject of a circular just issued ly
the department of agriculture. The
paper was prepared 1)3 F. 11. Hitch
cock, chief of the division foreign
narkets, under the direction of See
retaty Wilson. The comparison of
statistics shows that the United
States controls 00 per cent, of the en
lire trade of the islands. The total
value of export, and importsof Hawaii
for IS'.Kl was S'1.57S,SM, of which about
two-thirds, S15,515,'j:i0, was the value
of goods exported. The average of ex
ports of the ten years, lss7-ls.iii, was
Sll,0.Vi,lll, and of imports, 85, Vi'l, I.V.I,
leaving an average balance of So.lW'.l,

original settler of the count3. the old

Within the vicinit3' of these old peoplu
live 800 of their descendants and their
relationship can be traced to everyone
of the 12,000 population. Following
the Webb family three other families
settled near them, and into these fami
lies the Webbs married, and their
progen3' intermarried, so that from
these four families sprung the entire
population of Letcher count3'. Others
coming in have wedded their daugh
