Thcro la great uncertainty as to the fat of the treaty , and It now looks as If th margin would not exceed two or three votes whatever the result may be. Thcro are a few unascertained votes which will dccld the result. A canvass made yesterday shows forty votes certain for the treaty and twen ty-flvo certain against It. Twenty-nine vote In opposition are nulllclcnt to defeat , but thi opposition docs not know Just where thcsi four votes can bo found. There will be con sldcrablo sparring over the treaty before tin vote la taken , but a proloiiMfc'l debate Is no expected , The consideration of the sundry civil bll has been postponed until Senator Allison who has ctmrgo of It In the ucnate , could b present. If Senator Hoar fulfills bin promise to faring up the question of amendment to th rules hlg motion will bo stubbornly resisted by the democrats Those of them who favor the changes proposed will not asacnt to them on the eve of the tariff light.

Should Iho conference committee on the Indian ap propriation bill report It will bo con sidered. A suggestion to take action on the bankruptcy bill passed by tlio senate Is being thought over and may leach some doflntto shape before the close of the week. IUVrS AS TO Tim CIJIIU13 > CY.

No meeting of the commuter Jaa originally Intended will be held. 'The reason given for this Is the ab sence of Senator Platt of Connecticut , a member of the subcommittee on tariff. Some questions have arisen in the past few days concerning which It Is considered necessary to consult the Connecticut senator and ho has found It Impossible to reach the city until tomoirow too Into for tbo meeting. A meeting will probably be held Tuesday. The republican members will , In thj n.cpnttmo , continue their efforts to Xuo the democrats fix a time for icportlug the bill. The latter. howe\er , persist In declar ing that they will enter upon no agreement on this point until they can see the bill and ha\o an opportunity to examine It.

IIAPH ) CITY , S. D. , May 2. To the Editor of The Dee ! With reference to the article In your l uo of April 29 headed "No Funds for Survey Work ; South Dakota Falla to Provide an Adequate Appropriation , " the School of Mines has a word to say. You are , to a largo extent , misinformed In this mat ter. As a matter of fact tnc utato legis lature did make a very reasonable appro priation for geological survey work , although the appropriation was not made for the \iso of the state geologist , Mr. Todd , but for the use of the State School of Mines The ap propriation for the mining and geological survey of the State School of Mines was (1,000 , that for the state geological mirvcy was $250. The summer work of the State School of Mints , as commenced two summers ago , consists In the exploration each summer of a certain mining district In the Dlack Hills , Its mapping and a report upon Its golosy and mining resources. In other words , the work of the School of Mlnea Is eminently practical and useful In Its aim , and makes no attempt to embrace purely theoretical geological material or things transcendental. The work seems to have been well received In the Dlack Hills and to have recommended Itself to the favorable consideration of the late- legislature , which appropriated $1,000 for the continuance of the work a sum which , In vlow of the com parative Infancy of thcso surveys , la abun dantly satisfactory to the school That these School of Mines surveys servo another useful purpose Is evidenced by our recent correspondence with the United States geological survey , by which the matter was opened by an Inquiry Into the proposed future extent of our work , assurance that the United States geological survey did not wish to duplicate It , and promise ot aid. Still another useful end Is served by thcso surveys , whereby each year several students from the school are enabled to obtain Held practice In surveying , geology , mineralogy , mlnn engineering , etc. In your article refcrcnco Is made to a survey of Ragged Top district. This was made almost a year ago by the State School of Mines. The entire neighboring siliceous ore district was carefully mapped and a comprehensive report Is almost ready for general distribution. Why the state legis lature should have seen fit to act more generously toward the School of Mines geological logical survey than toward the work of the state geologist Is a matter which we need not discuss The fact , however , remains that the legislature has not neglected the geological survey ot the state , and that body should not bo deprived of duo credit.

Deputy Sheriffs John Lewis and Tom Davis and Jailor Schand had a incrrj chase after a batch of prize fighters yesterday afternoon and finally succeeded In running them over tbo Sarpy county line , where they fought out their fistic controversy. The principals were George Malchom of St. Louis and Uert Tord , an Omaha barber , and they were matched to a finish for the gate receipts. The fight was originally to have taken place at South Omaha , but tbo authorities hero getting wind of the affair Deputy Lewis and his aides were dispatched to gather them In , but the raid was tipped off by some of the gang before the officers had I a chance to cast their net. Prom South Omaha ( the pugs , with about 200 followers , adjourned to I'lcard's , but the officers ker-c right after them and they were compelled to cross the boundary over Into the neigh boring county. When the officers arrived at Flcard's the men had the ring pitched and were about to commence business , but on being Informed that they would be arrested they gathered up their paraphernalia and vamoosed. Deputy Lewis Informed the party , however , that ho had the names of all con cerned and that If they pulled off the fight In Sarpy county and returned to Omaha they would be arrested and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. It wasn't much of a fight , after all. Tord won It In one round. WDATIICR si AX wiinni/MAX's moi , . Yo UTiln > ' Cllmntr ItcnlM Ihc Prleml- Nlilp llt'twetMi Thrni. The weather man handed out something' to the wheeling boys nnd glrli that he could be justly proud of when ho dished forth tbo atmosphere that made j csterclay a little foretaste of what u "biker's" len-ven Is golmr to bo like. Nebraska's weather prestidigitator h is a stock of ell- mutes on hnnd that Is second to none In the world , but ycsterdny's was a little bit tbo best in the shop. It was the Sunday of the season for the riders nnd they will count themselves luckv if thpy get another like It this year. Things Ilko that come only ono In a package. The temperature was simply suporb. A cool north wind kept the mercury just high enough to ninke riding on n level ns delicious ns a mint jullp on a sizzling diiy , while thp "hot bovs" pumped tip the big hills with as much equanimity ns they show when they coast a "schooner" down. The sky was of that buo nnd tjpo that the people who have been over the big water call nn Italian lilue , nnd the sun smiled broadly to temper the borenn breere. It was neither too hot nor too cold , but enough of both to bo just right. Out In the country none of the traveled roads were bad. There were a ftfw ruts , but not enough to bother As n rule , they wore smooth an-1 hard , with a tiltlo of dust. Ono could slide alonw and commune with that capricious maid Spring , In her sprout ing tlnerywithout being tantalized by the thoughts of that mugnt tlio end all the time. It was the banner club run diy of the season tip to date , and the noys who did not turn out will be forever sorry. Twenty of the Omaha Wheel club gans hit the road , Including the tandem and Picsldent Len Llvesey. Cnptnln Croxton started the crowd nt 9 30 Bh irp on the run to the Pnpplo , fourteen miles uway. Some got there , sonic did not. Sarpy mills proved too attractive. The ride was n corker. In spite of the hills. It was en livened by several Incidents , the principal of which was "Buck's" caper. 11 < turned a couple of somersaults anrt a double hand spring , covered fifteen feet and eight Indies of vacuum and landed somewhere " "Did you st'O mo1' ho demanded ns he picked himself up uninjured , but with a mournful look of utter surprise In his luminaries. The Turner Wheel club rode to Port C.al- houli. which Is probably the prettiest coun try ride out of the city. The ro id has been well traveled and was In Brood shape. Outside the wheel clubs , however , qny number of riders singly , in pairs or In parties penetrated Into the hills and dales to the north and south , west and across the river. The less traveled roads proved to bo somewhat rough , but the more popu lar were packed hard and linn. Wheelmen and vvhcelvvomen "were on the city pavements from an early hour and were out In mass In thp afternoon. Sher man avenue and the Hnnscom park runs wore the most popular rides Women were out In great numbers , many of them In newsprlmr bicycle suits.

Attired - tired In n flowing gown of yellow silk and wearing n huge turban , his appearance was very striking. The women have made much of tha man from India , who has posed as an example of humility and gentleness and last night ho was Invited to speak on the subject of "Religion as a Sjnonym of education. " Instead ho stepped forward and In unqual ified language attacked the congress. Its motives and tbo honesty of Its members. Ho was listened to with suppressed Indig nation , which finally found vent In hisses and protests. Then , after several \alti at tempts to be further heard , he strode with what he called "bravery and heroism" from the scene. Ho announced that ho had been Insulted , because as ho averred on Thurs day evening his flowing silken robes had been pulled by ono of the women while ho was talking pulled , he said , to lusutt him because ho was telling the truth In opposition to the "horrible and foolish doc trine of heredity.

Ho called them dishonest and said1 "The women of the west are savages Will jou tell mo what Is the difference between the Indian who puts war feathers In his hair , and the woman who puts feath ers and flowers In her hat ? " He then commenced a personal attack on Mrs. Gardener , but his voice was drowned by the storm of shouts and hisses from the audlcn.'e. When finally quiet was re stored the Hindoo exclaimed. "I will go Ilko n hero ; I will be brave " Ho gathered ils silken robes about him and strode from .ho stage Surrounded by friends bo was es- carted to the furnace room and let out Into ; ho street through the coal hole. The women of the congress deny that the Hindoo had been Insulted and say they lad heard nothing about It until ho com- ncnced bis ottaclt. He came to bo the guest of the congress through nn Inquiry at the Theosophtcal headquarters for Mrs. Annie Bcsant , who \\as expected In this city.

The senate special committee which began an Investiga tion of the local penitentiary several weeks ago , will resume operations with a vim to- norrow. A big sensation , involving a num- jpr of prominent men , has been sprung at the prison today. This tlmo it is a money and not a scandal affair In the name of the prison officials. It has been discovered by state officials who have been paying peniten tiary accounts that the prison is short 1,000- 000 feet of lumber , worth $17,000 , and that this amount has been paid out. No arreslo have been made , but It is charged that a doz n men are Involved and tbo matter will bo far-reaching , but only a few underlings are charged with guilt. The sitting com missioners will talk but little , although they admit something eerlous Is wrong , and thcj have been trying to learn wherein the trouble lies. The Investigating committee is com posed largely of democrats , who believe the lepubllcan administration has honeycombed more than ono Institution with corruption They are preparing to go to the bottom of this particular matter and It Is hinted that others of a similar character may keep ex tending tbo extra legislative session longer than was expected when the senatorial race came to an end.
