easily compromise tholr difference * and nn
agreement bo readied upon the bill. "
The senator spent the entire afternoon In
the office of the decretory of the senate ,
looking up parliamentary law bearing upon
the question of the ndmlssablllty of an
amendment of the character of his , and
fortifying himself to rcilst the point of
order which would bo mndo against his
motion that a senate amendment , to a bill
cannot bo entertained under the rules when
a bill Is In conference. There Is very little
doubt that this point , when made , will be
sustained by the chair. Senator Harris has
Raid that If ho li In the chair when the
point Is made ho will sustain It. In case
of an appeal from the decision It Is under
stood that the republicans will vote with a
majority of the democrats to sustain the
decision. They say that while they will
vote for the original motion If put , they will
not oppose by their votes a ruling of the
chair which they believe will be right. In
the event that the chair In sustained , It
would appear that there would bo nothing
for the senate to do but either to give In
structions for recession from the entire
amendments , or to Instruct Its conferees to
stand by the senate bill.
However , thcro are mysterious hints of
dther means of setting Instructions to the
conference on the subject of the differential
duty on Sugar. It Is posslblo that other ex
pedients will bo tried , but what they will be
no one has undertaken to Kay. As to the
general situation In the senate \vlth reference
to the tnrllT bill and the feeling caused by
the president's letter. It does not appear to
have materially changed since yesterday. A
largo majority of the democratic senators
are working hard to bring about an agree
ment. It Is even Intimated that an effort
1ms been made to bring the president and
dome of the conservative senators together.
It docs not appear , however , that the men
who are most largely responsible for the
senate bill In Its present shape have shown
any disposition to change from their former
exactions , and unless the peacemakers make
rapid headway between this time and Monday
Iho prospect Is good for another day of very
animated speeches In the senate.

Hi ht CiiiiriiM 1'osslhle.
WASHINGTON , July 21. There were not
many signs of yesterday's storm about the
scnato wing ol the capltol today. ' Senators
who put In an appearance at all went
about their business as though nothing un-
'usual had occurred , and all professed as
much Ignorance as to the probable outcome
of the entanglement as the veriest outsider
Thcra Is fttllt great uncertainty In the minds
ot senators , not only as to the ultimate out
come , but as to the probable procund-
IIIB3 In the Immediate future. There aic aba
differences of opinion as to whether a demo
cratic caucus will bo called for the purpose
of trying to reach an understanding. There Is
no doubt that the conservative leaders have
discussed among themselves the advisability
of such a c.ineu.s. They have been together
In groups of two , three and four a great
deal of time since the adjournment of the
bcnato last night , but they are all reticent
as to the tenor of their talk among them
selves , or as to their plans for the future.

capltol together nnd Senator * flormnn nnd
Itrlco were closeted together In the approprl'
ntlon commltteo for some time. Ono of the
no-called conservative nenators said today
that ho thought It probable a caucus would
bo held Monday morning ,
U Is stated .here Is a plan on foot for the
repeal of the present sugar bounty by an In
dependent measure , In case the differential
duty on refined sugar nhould be stricken out
ot the tariff bill , and the tariff bill then de
feated In consequence of this action.
Ti& ! conferees on the tariff bill are not
only required to meet dissensions In their
own ranks , but It appears are also com
pelled to receive threats of personal violence
from person1 ? on the outside. Thcso
threats lm\o so far nil como by mall and
are generally anonymous. Senator Jones
nays lie hai received at least n doaen letters
of this character of which the following Is a
fair sample.
Ninv YORK , July 3. To the Congrcs-
filnnnl Committee mi Turin 1)111 ) :
If you IMB thu bill with thi Income tnx
don't forget to order your uoitlns you will

o help You God.
Most of the letters bear evidence on their
face of the Illiteracy of their authors nnd In
dicate very plainly that they nro Irresponsi
ble cranks. The members of the committee
pny no attention to the letters as a rule
and generally consign them to the waste
basket without loss of time.
There has been a persistent rumor about
the capital today that the conservative dem
ocratic senators have been In conference ,
and that they adopted a plan under which
steps were to be taktn to defeat the tariff
bill , If. by 5 o'clock Monday , the senate
did not definitely Instruct the tariff con
ference to stand by the senate bill.
Senator Hrlce , who Is regarded as the
leader of this clement , pronouncJd the
story as without foundation. Ho said It
was true , however , that the conservatives
had been a great deal together , and that
they understood ono another perfectly. He
said , furthermore , that so far as ho was
concerned ho had decided to support Mr.
Vllns In his cafort to have the sugjr differ
ential stricken out of the bill , and added
that as the sugar schedule was a measure he
saw no reason why the administration
should not have Us own way now. Ho added
that If Insistence upon this course should
result In the defeat of the bill , ns he thought
It might , the conservative democrats would
not bo responsible for that result. It does
not now appear that there Is any prospect
of an early democratic caucus In the senate.
Senator Gorman says there will bo no
democratic caucus between this and the
time of assembling Monday.
The republican advisory committee ot the
senate held a meeting today for the pur
pose of an exchange of views upon the pies-
ent situation In the senate with regard to
the tariff. The opinion was generally ex
pressed among senators present that the
democratic situation was very delicate , and
It Is understood that a decision was reached
that It would not bo Improved from a re
publican standpoint by the Interference of
republican senators ; hence they will advise
members of their party to allow tha demo
cratic senators to continue to do the greater
part of the talking In the senate on the
subject of the tariff so long ns they will
do so. It Is understood that the committee
discussed the attitude ot the republicans
who were opposed to the differential sugar
duty and concluded to advise that the re
publican senators would vote solidly to
strike It out. If they should have the oppor
tunity to do so.

Ni\V YORK. July 21. The World will
say tomorrow : The meeting of the
Atchlson , Topeka & Santa Fe reorganiza
tion commltteo Friday developed an astound
ing surprise. It had been expected that
expert Little would make his financial re
port , which would about agree with the
committee's estimates , and the reorganiza
tion plan could bo put forth complete In
every detail.
Mr. Little , however , did not make his
report. Instead ho "said that while ex
amining the books he found evidence of
figure-juggling In the matter of rebates to
freight shippers. The amount was very
large , and Instead of being charged to the
proper expense account , had been shifted
to other channels , so the statements of
Income and earnings were Incorrect. An
explanation was Immediately demanded and
the fact elicited that two sots of books were
kept , one In the west and one In the east.
Mr. L'ttle had evidently examined the west
ern books. Where It was necessary the
changes were properly made on the eastern
books , on which public statements were
based. Upon receiving this reply Mr. Llt-
tlo was ordered to look Into the eastern
bosks. lie has lightly ran over them and
late last evening the following statement
was made bv Secretary Kobbo of the reor-
galiatlon committee :
The socrctniy of the Atchlson reorganiza
tion committee makes the following state
ment in behalf of the commltteo : Mr. Little
has returned ; he has had every opportunity
to examine the books of the company and
of the receivers. He has not been able to
complete hln report , but he states that during
the period from July , 18S9 , the date of the
last reoiganl/.atlon , to December , 1893 , the
date of the appointment of the receivers , the
Income of the company has , In his opinion ,
been overestimated In an aggregate amount
ing to about $7,000,000. Ho finds the ac
counts of the receivers have In all respects
been accurately staatcd.
He expects to make a detailed report to
the committee Tuesday afternoon ns to his
examination ot the western books , nnd mean
while is examining the custom books.

WASHINGTON , D. C. , July 21.
The congressional authorities on emigra
tion laws nro much exercised over the passage -
ago of Representative William A. Stono's
Immigration bill In the house yesterday ,
while most of the members were watching
the exciting scenes In the senate. The Stone
bill Is far reaching In Its effect on the sys
tem of Inspecting Immigrants , as the cntlro
Inspection Is transferred to foreign ports
and placid In the hands of United States
consuls Instead of waiting for the Inspection
nt Now York and other ports when the
Immigrants arrive In this country.
"I expect to BCD the bill taken up by the
senate at an early day and passtO , " said
Mr. Stone , "and already several senators
who recognize the evils of Immigration have
slgnlllod their purpose to urge It to a
speedy passage. The present Immigration
law has proved a failure. Immigrants keep
coming without rcfcrenco to the restrictions.
The system Is wrong , as It leaves the Im
migrant to furnish all the Information on
which ho Is received or rejected. "
"No , " said he , In reply to a question ,
"efforts have been made to so change the bill
as to let the Treasury department appoint
the foreign Inspectors. Sucli a change wculd
neccssltatu the creating of a largo force of
olllceholdcrs. Hut as the bill stands the
United States consuls , who are not over.-
burdencd with work , will have charge of the
Inspection. "
It Is understood that Senators Davis ,
Chandler and Quay will particularly Interest
thenibelves In the Stone bill with alcw to
Its early adoption.
MCIKLEJOHN TALKS OP HIS DILL.
Representative Melklejohn , speaking In re
gard to his bill providing a tax of $100 on
each alien Immigrant , said today : "When
the population of this nation Increases by
moro than COO.OOO of foreign Immigrants an
nually , the limitation of foreign Immigration
has become a question of national impor.
tancc. Wo have developed our natural re
sources and sustained the standard of
American wages through the levying of a
duty on manufactures of foreign labor.
"Wages are subject to the law of supply
and demand and wage earners are as much
Interested In preserving our field of labor
for the American waga worker as In the
protection of the products of his labor from
the competition of the foreign manufacturer
The policy of placing a duty on Importations
of the product of foreign workmen at a rate
sufllcient to equalise the difference between
our domestic and foreign cost of labor has
established an incomparable scale of wages
In this nation for our wage earners and
which , in my Judgment , can only be main
tained by extending the same beneficent
policy to the Immigration of foreign laborers.
"The bill which I have proposed exempts
all relatives of any American citizen or any
person who has declared his intention to
become such , who may deslro to immigrate
to the United States , while a duty of JlOO per
capita Is levied upon all other alien Immi
grants. Every citizen , whether native or
foreign born , Is alike Interested In keeping
from our shores the class of Immigration
which this measure would prohibit. "
GOHMAN HOLDS THE KCY.
The cause of the alleged revenue- reform
seems to entirely rest in the hollow of the
hurjd of the senipr senatqr from Maryland.
Arthur Puo Gorman has been a politician
all his life. They used to put politics In his
milk when he was pulling along on a bottle.
At the time when ho wore long clothes and
howled at night for his father to rock him ,
or walk with him , ho was studying politics ;
studying how to make his gray-haired father
profane. He succeeded. When he was a
youth ho studied how to get an appointment
as a page In the senate , and he succeeded
In early manhood he studied how to get from
a pageship to a scnatorship , and ho suc
ceeded. In 1884 ho schemed to get the presi
dency for Cleveland , after Blalne had been
elected , and he succeeded. In 1888 he
schemed how to elect Hill to the governor
ship of New York , and defeat Cleveland , who
had offended him , for the presidency , and
ho succeeded. In 1892 he participated in a
national campaign which succeeded In electIng -
Ing Mr. Cleveland a second time to tha presi
dency. In 1891 ho undertook to usurp the
constitutional functions of the house of rep
resentatives In the formation of a revenue
bill ; and he succeeded.
This Iconoclastic legislative Warwick Is
as smooth externally us he Is Intel nally.
Ho Is always clean-shaven , and his hair is
parted and patted by a perfect artist. His
smile Is an alabaster poem. His Intellectual
machinery works with the smoothness and
perfection of a Corliss engine. He la such
a man as Casslus was , of whom Julius Caesar
said : "Such men are dangerous. " Ho could
walk across a floor thickly strewn with eggs
without cracking a single shell. But , if bj
accident , a calcareous covering should crack ,
suspicion would be diverted from Gorman
and rest upon Vest or some other aggres
sive follow who never touched an egg in his
life. It was Gorman who manipulated the
cntlro revenue bill ; but Sugar trust suspi
cion was directed toward any other senator
than himself. At the present time , how
ever , everybody knows that Arthur Puo Gor
man Is the manipulator of the senagamblan
In the woodpile. He Is the master marplot
of his party , and has been for moro than a
decade. There will be no revenue bill , save
such as pleases Gorman. That tells the
whole story.
CAIIEY MAY GET PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
Senator Carey of Wyoming today secured
the Insertion of a clause In the sundry civil
appropriation bill making provision for
the purchase of sites and the erection of
public buildings In Cheyenne , Helena and
Bolso City. Under ordinary circumstances
every appropriation bill making ptovlsion for
public buildings must stand upon Its own
merits and cannot be Inserted In any of the
great national appropriation bills. A pre
cedent was established several years ago ,
however , by the venerable octogenarian Sena
tor Morrlll of Vermont , who secured nn ap
propriation for a publlo building at Mout-
pellcr , the capital of his state , In the sundry
civil appropriation bill. This precedent was
taken advantage of afterwards by Senator
Cockrell of Missouri , who secured an appro
priation In a similar manner for a public
building nt Jefferson City , the capltol of
the btato of Missouri. Senator Carey of
Wyoming having ascertained these facts made
use of them before the committee on ap
propriations and was reinforced In his argu
ments by the senators from Idaho and Mon
tana. So urgent and persistent were the de
mands of these senators that the senate com.
mltteo on appropriations yielded to their Im
portunities and Incorporated the clause lu tha
bundry civil appropriation bill for the pur
pose of giving public buildings to the
capitals of Wyoming. Montana and Idaho.
Senator Carey also today secured an
amendment to the sundry civil appropriation
bill which provides that the governor of a
sttito having public lands may call on the
surveyor general to make surveys of town
ships in which the state desires to make
selections for Its land grants. In case
thuro U nn money remaining unexpended
In the approprl illon for publlo surveys , then
the state may advance the money , and the
United States shall reimburse the atato by
an appropriation of money for that purpose
at the next session of congress ,

WASHINGTON'julV ? ' 21. The senate sugar
Investigating comm'lUco resumed Us work to
day In the old tlnYe 'manner. Only Senators
Gray , Lindsay and "Davis of the committed
wore present , but they had several witnesses
bcforo them , and announced a determination
to proceed with liio work so long as thcro
was any possibility of securing witnesses who
would furnish any testimony.
The most Important witness of the day
was Henry Rood , the New York Herald re
porter , who wrote the articles In that paper
upon which tbo present branch of the In
quiry Is based. Mr , Rood was examined at
length as to the source of his Information ,
and special effort was made by the mem
bers to get the best Information at Mr.
Rood's command as to his statements that
United States senators had boon speculating
In Sugar stock since the tariff bill was taken
up In the senate , despite their dentals. It Is
understood that Mr. Hood responded to this
request as fully as he was able to do and
expressed a willingness to aid the committee
to the extent of his ability.
It was Impossible to secure the details of
the testimony. When Senator Gray was
asked for a statement as to the proceed
ings he replied that he could say nothing ,
and that It wa > the Intention off the com
mittee not to give out itny Information ns
to the testimony until the present branch
of the Inquiry was completed. The reason
given for taking this position Is that the
publication of the ( acts elicited would In
terfere with the plans of the committee
and would prevent ns complete an Inquiry
as they desire to make. Today's wit
nesses , therefore , wore all warned that they
were on the same plane as witnesses before
a grand jury , and warned against di
vulging the proceedings to any one.
Other witnesses of the day were W. B.
Wheeler , a Now York broker , and A. M.
Sclp of this city.
Mr Wheeler stated to the committee that
ho had never placed any orders for senators
for Sugar stock and was unable to glvo any
Information.
Mr. Selp has been represented In the
newspapers as raying that he had come into
possession of knowledge of rho fact that a
certain senator had placctl orders fur Sugar
stocks during the spring and to have stated
that It was placed with a man then ic pre
senting the firm of Seymour , Young & Co. ,
Now York brokers.

Itccolvarn Appointed by United States
Courts Alimt Pay Stuto Taxes.
WASHINGTON , July 21. The house has
passed without opposition the bill from the
judiciary committee fixing the status of state
and municipal taxation on property In the
hands of receivers appointed by United
States courts. The bill provides that taxes
heretofore or hereafter assessed by state ,
county or municipal authority against any
corporations or corporate property shall not
bo classed as debt to be passed upon In the
first Instance by. , any. court of the United
States , but shall , pa rqollectlble In the first
Instance by the proper , authorities , according
to the assessment , whether the corporation
Is In the hands ota receiver or not , and no
judge or court ot the United States shall
have any other nu.lhqrlty to enjoin , restrainer
or Interefero wltlj the , collection than If no
receivership existed , and the seizure as well
as the sale of property for taxes shall divest
the receiver and . .court of control. It pro
vides that property seized for taxes and not
sold shall be retur eJ to the receiver , and
that the corporatfon or receiver shall have
the right of a citizen to apply for the abate
ment of a tax or'sue , or defend against an
Improper assessment In courts having juris
diction. This bllf , . If1 , It becomes a law , will
settle soma of the , disputes in South Carolina
lina between the , s'tute and federal authorities
concerning the taxation of railroad property
now In the custddy'of federal courts. The
most important railroads In this state are
managed by receivers appointed by United
States Judges. Two years ago , acting on the
advice of judges , the railroads refused to
pay the full amount of taxes levied by the
state commissioners , holding the appraisal
of the property to bo excessive , but tendered
the amounts which the Judges held to be
fair. Three state constables , who attempted
to enforce the collection ordered by the state
board , were fined $500 each for contempt of
court. The state paid their fines , and re
cently the house Judiciary committee reported
a bill to refund the amount , $1,500 , to the
state.
Governor Tillman came to Washington and
addressed the Judiciary committee In favor
of that bill and advocated a measure of the
effect of the one passed.
The bill was reported by a strictly party
vote , but passed without opposition.
IIV DIKUCT VOTK OV THIS
House liosnHes on a Change In the Election
of Hrimtors.
WASHINGTON , July 21. There was a
very slim attendance of members when the
speaker called the house to order today.
Mr. Bowers demanded the regular order ,
which was the resolution proposing an
amendment to the constitution providing
that senators shall bo elected by direct vote
of the people.
Although a two-thirds vote Is required for
measures amending the constitution , the
pending resolution was passed , 137 to 49
thirteen votes to spare.
The announcement of the result was re
ceived with democratic applause.
The house disagreed to the senate amend
ments on the Indian appropriation bill , and
Messrs. Holman , Allen and Wilson of Wash
ington were appointed conferees.
The bill to repay to West Virginia the di
rect tax levied by the act of August C , 1801 ,
and the bill for the reinstatement of clerks
dismissed from the railway mall service
between March 15 and May 1 , 1891 , was
taken up.
Under the special order adopted for the
bill the previous question was to bo ordered
at t o'clock. The bill provides that the
postmaster general may reinstate without
examination or certification by the civil
bcrvlco commission any person who was dis
missed from the railway service between
March 15 and May 1 , 1891 , or who was dis
missed from tha service after the last
named date upon any order made prior
thereto.
Mr. Bynum , democrat , of Indiana spoke In
favor of the bill. The bill failed to pass on
account of the lack ot a quorum , and at
3.55 the house adjourned.

eyes of the travelers and the punch bowl and
the brown milk from the cactus plant held
out a warm welcome to come and partake.
And partake the men of the tiger claws did
