Membera—The Closing Speeches

Bill and Answers Sea*
ator Forakor.
Washington; July 28 —When the
Senate met at 10 o'clock this morning1
under the unanimous agreement of
last night that a vote be taken at 3
o’clock to-day, only eleven senators
were on hand and 'several of these
busied themselves with clearing out
their desks and preparing for depart
ure. There was no prayer, as this
was a recess session.
Immediately after the vice president
had called the Senate to order, Mr.
Chandler moved an executive session.
He yielded, however, to Mr. Bate of
Tennessee, who desired to have a day
set for eulogies on his late colleague,
Mr. Harris January 13 next was
agreed upon, and at 10:0 * o'clock the
Senate went into executive session,
during which the following confirma
tions were made: Postmasters in Mis
souri, P. C. Van Matrc at Warrens
burg, F. a Jones at Sarcoxie, H. H.
Mitchell at Clinton, .1. M. Cox at Ad
rian and J. M. Wright at Richmond;
postmaster in Kansas, S. O. Wells at
Erie.
When the doors were opened Mr.
Allen of Nebraska resumed his speech
in opposition to the tariff conference
report and the bill in general. He
criticised the effeots of the bill on the
farmers and instanced barbed wire,
required by them for fences, on which
they were placed, by the bill at the
mercy of the barbed wire trust. How
different it was in the case of the
moneyed aristocracy. It was all right,
the senator said ironically, for the
“sharks and money gamblers of Wall
street” to make 132,000,000 out of the
sugar sohedule since the Dingley bill
was first reported. It was all right
for Pierpont Morgan to make 827,000,
000 out of the government bonds ille
gally Issued under the administration
of President Cleveland. Farmers
ought to understand that the legisla
tion of Russia was as beneficial to
them as the legislation of Congress.
As a sequel to Mr. Allen’s heated
personal colloquy with Mr. Foraker
over the alleged fraud Bince the last
election, the Nebraska senator pre
sented tables comparing the vote cast
for McKinley, Ilryan, Harrison and
Cleveland. One column showed
“fraudulent excess” that of Ohio be
ing stated at 94, .’>00. In closing, Mr.
Allen announced his purpose to with
hold his vote on the question of agree
ing to tho report.
Mr. Caffery of Louisiana followed in
a criticism of the sugar schedule. He
stated that ships from all parts of tho
world were hurrvin? in with cargoes
of raw sugar to avoid the duties of the
MIL Already eigut months’ supply
had been brought in. th is cutting off
government revenue to that extent
and giving enormous profits to the
trust. -
Mr. Gear questioned these figures,
saying only four months’ supply of
raw sugar had been brought in.
Mr. Burrows of Mlohigan, a member
of the finance committee, then took
the floor for one of the few speeches
from the opposition side. He said he
was induced to enter the debate be
cause of assaults made upon the lum
ber schedule, an industry, in twenty
two states, with an aggregate cap
ital ot 8730,000,000, employing 000,000
people, and paying 8130,000,000 in
wages annually. The rates on lumber
were the lowest of any In the bill,
being about IS to 18 per eent ad val
orem, and only 1 per cent on white
pine. He referred to his visits to the
Michigan lumber sections, where he
said mills were idle and men out of
work, when the Canadian mills and
workmen were thriving.
Sharp at 3 o'clock the final roll call
on the passage of the bill as reported
by the conference committee began,
while the floor and galleries were
crowded.
The voting did not consume much
time. Great applause followed the an
nouncement by the Vice President
that the report had been adopted by
the vote of 40 to SO.

NEW VOTING SYSTEM
FEATURES OF THE BLANK
ET BALLOT LAW.
It Will Ba Emij to Tote Straight—Voter*
Required to Use Indelible Fenelle In
stead of Ink—New Power Given to the
Secretary of State.
The blanket ballot law passd by the
the recent legislature is now receiving
attention, and voters will this fall have
an opportunity to practice some of its
provisions. The law is a modification
of the Australian ballot law passed by
the 1891 legislature.
Some of the changes made by the
law are, the form of the ballot, the
substitution of an indellible pencil for
a pen and ink in marking, a mark for
voting a straight ticket, a provision
authorizing the formation of new par
ties, regulations governing decisions of
the secretary of state relating to cer
tificates of nominations, use of party
names and emblems, together with a
few precautionary instructions which
posite the names of the candidates you
wish to vote for on other tickets. Oi
when two or more candidates are
grouped on the ticket for the same
office, as two or more representatives,
and the voter wishes to vote for one oi
more on another ticket or tickets in
any group, the voter must make the
cross after each candidate in the group
on his own ticket that he wishes t«
vote for, and also after the names oi
of each candidate on any other ticket
or tickets grouped for the same office
he wishes to vote for. Be careful that
yon do not mark the names of candi
dates for whom yon <lo not wish to
vote.

Saw Francisco, July 23. —The steam*

day from Puget Sound ports, brought
down almost *200,000 worth of Alaskan
gold, of which 1133,700 was in gold
dust from Seattle, consigned to Wells,
Fargo A Co. There were several
other shipments of gold in sacks, some
of which was shipped direct from
Juneau, and advices from that place
are to the effect that at least 9750,000
worth of dust was awaiting shipment
at various Alaskan stations.
Among the sensational advices re
ceived was one from St. Michael’s to
the effect that over $4,000,000 in gold
which had not been included with the
fortunes brought here by miners, wilL
be shipped through Wells, Fargo A
