LONDON , June 20. Queen Victoria began
the celebration of her Jubilee today as wan
betlttlng her entire career , before the altar
of her faith. Throughout London , the United

and church of the Katabllsucd Church of
England , were held services blmllar to those
at St Gcorge'H chapel , Windsor , where her
majesty paid her devotions and offered
Bolcmn thanks to God. The announcement
that the services at St George's chapel
would bo private and for the members ol
the royal family prevented the gathering ol
a large crowd. The scene was most Im-
prcc-3lvo and the service very simple. Het

Ih' dean of Windsor , wearing the inslgnl :
of chaplain of the Older of the Garter , oi',1
elated , assisted by the bishop of Harry am

THIS WEEK IN CONGRESS
Republican Senators Feel Encouraged About
Tariff Bill.
FEEL THAT END IS ALMOST IN SIGHT

WASHINGTON , Juns 20. The repub
lican senators In charge of the tariff bill
begin to feel that the end IB almcat In
sight. They do not hope to conclude the
cciu'lderatlou of the bill by the clfwo of
the present week , but they expect by that
time to bo able to eay when they can com
plete the work.
As a matter of fact , the difficulty of ad
justing differences In their o\vn piity la
causing the managers aiore perplexity at
present than Is the open opposition to the
1)111 ) In the fccnate. It has been found alrovt
Impossible to harmonize the contcullnr
forces among republicans on the tobacco at'tl
wool schedules. The differences on tobacco
have been compromlssd , though not to the
battatictlcu of all concerned , and If there
should bo another caucus before the to
bacco schedule Is taken up In the senate the
question lo liable to be reopened there.
The wool Fchedule will confront the sen
ate at the opening of the session on Mon
day , and It la Senator Allison's purpose to
press the schedule forward to a clc.se Hence
It will bo ltnpo .lble to postpone for a very
much longer tltnu the settlement of the dif
ferences on this question , It Is expected that
If the committee should uot be able to an
nounce a determinant n by some time Mon-
daj the matter will be referred to an early
caucus , or a caucu.3 miy be called If the
committee fixes a rale that Is not satisfac
tory to the wool men. There Is little doubt
that an advance will be- conceded bj the
committee , but the qucKlon of Intcrert Is
v.hether the Increase will bo all that the
wool men demand. The- wool schedule will
oC courro give rise to an animated debate ,
but the democratic senators say there Is no
disposition on their part to neellcss'ly pro
long It. There are numerous articles on the
free lift and In ths "sundry" schedule which
will arouse differences of opinion , and If the
republicans do not wlthdiaw the Internal
revenue fcatuies of the bill there will be
a clurp clash over thli. They are prac
tically decided , however , to retreat from
these provisions It Is also practically de
termined that the house provision In regard
to Hawaiian tugar will be continued pend
ing the disposition of the Hawaiian annex
ation treaty. Tor the rest the question of
leclprocity and the problem represented by
the trusts In connection vvl'h ' the tariff arc
still undetermined by the republicans them-
eelvcs , and there Is no doubt that there will
bo more or leejs general debate on any piopo-
tiltlons agreed to when presented In the
senate.
The program In the house will be the
ramo as during past weoks. There will be
two yesslons , one on Monday and another on
Thursday. It Is probable that the commit
tee on rules will bilng lu a rpcclal order
on Mondaj for the consideration of the
bill appropriating money to repair the drj-
dock at the Brooklyn navy jard , and the
bill will no doubt ho passed.

b gins by describing how
When they placed a Srownipon her fair

Pllcnt he fe'nzrd an one4who doth not know
The meaning of a ines'iaBe. When she broke
The hush of awe nround her , 'tmns ns tho'

Tlio poet laureate refers to her "princely
helpmate , scorncr of wrong and lover of the

Etanza of the poem :
? o v\ hen the storm of itrath nrose tint dravc
Searcil ruler ? from their realms , her throne ,
deep laid
In llbertv nnd tru t , calm ghelter unve
To kings dismayed.
The poem then tells of her sonow at her
mslmmi's death , but how "I am nuptlalcd
: o mv people and have wed their deathless
will" and concludes from the twenty-fourth
stanza as follows :
Then to winds , yet ivlder was unfurled
The HUJT th.it tyrants never could ens'avc ,
rill Its strength governed Imlf the world
And nil the wave.
And T\inopllcd nllke for war or peace ,

SPRINGPIELD , Mats , June 20 The Cen
tral American members of the Pan-American
party now touring the country were torne-
vvhnt disturbed by a cable dispatch consplcu-
ously piloted in a Nc.v York paper con
cerning the troubles botiveeji the elates of
their country. The dispatch sets forth that
Costa Illca would not bex-ome a part of the
Greater Republic of Central America , be
cause of the belief that the proposed federa
tion of the five states of the country was
merely a political nchcmu , that strained re
lations exist between Costa Rica and Guat
emala , and that in splto of Costa Rica's pro
tests the other four states , San Salvador ,
Honduras , Nicaragua and Guatemala , hail
agreed to the proposed union on 1 selected
President Iglcslas as the first president of Hit
diet.
diet.Mauro
Mauro Fernandez , a financier and lawyei
of San Jose , Ccsta Illca , who Is one ot tin
delegates , Is perhaps the best Infoimed mar
on Central American politics in the party
When he saw the dispatch ho said :
"Tho question In regard to the fcderatlor
of the Central American republics Is an oh
one After the Independence of these repub
lies had been won from Spain In 1821 r.
federation was made which Included UK
whole five states , but not long after thai
the federation was dissolved. Tliere wen
two parties , the separatists , who wanted In
dividual Independence for-cach state , an :
the federalists , who demanded union. Tin
struggle resulted In triumph for the hepa-
ratlsts In 1S41 one of the federalist leaders
General Moran/an of San. Salvador , In at
tempting to restore the old order. Invade
the republic of Coata Rica. The polltlea
party there supported aril proclaimed bin
president ot the republic , although he wa !
not a native of the state. Bui Costa HIT
was not then ready to enter Into any consoli
dation or bear the yoke of a foreign gov-
eminent. Moran/an was court-martialed.
"Ever since then Costa Illca has showi
great reluctance to paiticjpate In any con
Eolldatlon. Popular feeling U against It , al
though the classes , who understand the nature
turo of a federal government and the Importance
portanco of uniting all thoCencrtal America !
countries Into one. nation , support the propo
sition. The only question la the good faltl
of the leaders ot the various states. It In i
fact that if the leaders of these five rcpub
lies , Including Costa Rica , wished honest ) !
to work lor a federation , In spite of pelt ]
Interests and local aspirations , the fedcra
tion would rlso and live.
"Salvador has worked more for a feden
tlon than all the others , for although Guatc
mala , In 1855 , declared the five republic
united , there was no tullon by the consen
ot the five , but an attempt by General Bar
ilos to unite them by fpra . All the othei
republics rose In arms against It , the Guatc
malan forces were attacked at Chalchuapi
and Barrios died In the field and the schetm
with him San Salvador , Nicaragua anc
Honduras are most working for a federation
but Costa Rica. Is , at peace and thilvlm ? , nm
wo want no change. In no ccas will U bo <
bclicmo of privateparties , ; but an effort t <
Etungthen the Central American countries
The best people of CwU Rlci would favor ;
federation , but not until * then. "

Just before the first streaks of crltrson ap
peared over the lown bluffs yesterday morn
ing the watchman at the warehouse of King-
man S. Co , near the union depot , .vas aiiw.'d
liy the npppariince of what , In the still this-
It-ring shadows , seemed like an ali.iy of occu
pation bent on the possession of the build
ing ot which he was the nocturnal gi'ir'lin '
A long file of teams moved over the viaduct
nnd down the Incline to the rear ot the build
ing , Hfhlnd them WPB n straggling niriy
of mart hers and something very like a title
liarrci rested on rarh man's shoulJiAs
the battalion came closer the rlllcs resolved
themselves 'nto ' spades , and In a couple ot
minutes uc.it ly a hundred of thesj useful
utensils fclruck earth In the nll y In the
rear of the Klngman building. Then the
object o' the early morning raid was appai-
cnt.
cnt.Por
Per some time past the owners of iln > build
ing and the lUirllngton Railroad compnnv
have been fighting over the proposed occupa
tion of the alley by the railroad ns an Inlet
from Tenth street to the new depot The
city council parsed an ordinance vacating the
alley for this purpose but Klngman .t Co
went Into the couits and finally obtained an
Injunction restraining the city from turning
the alley over to the rallroid nnd also re
straining the tallroad company from grading
tlio alley. The result was to effectually pre
vent the inlliond company from using the
alley as nn avenue to the depot and to compel
its patrons to go around by Ninth street to
enter the new depot
Howevc- , the city authorities demonstrated
the proposition that there was more than onti
way to skin a cat. A special meeting of the
city council was called lost Saturday evening
and a ccncurrent resolution directing the
Doard of Ptbllc Works to Immediately grade
the alley was passed under suspension ot the
rules Mayor Moorcs was present and he at
once signed the resolution.
No one but those Interested knew ot the
action taken until 3 o'clock yesterday mornIng -
Ing , whnri Superintendent Ueverly of the
street department appeared on the ground
with thiity teams and about seventy-five
laborers. The entire force was at once turned
loose on the alley and the diit vvta exca
vated at a rite that promised to bring the-
alley to grade before sunset.
DISTURB A LAWYER'S SLUMBER.
It was this that had startled the vvatch-
min and he lost po tlmo In warning the
firm of the flank movement thut had been
executed. Attorney Mclntosh , who rcpre-
bcnts the Klngman Interests , was routed out
ot bed and he proceeded at once to Judge
Keysor's residence to see If the court could
be Induced to act. No Injunction could bo
secured agairst the city on Sunday , but Julgc
Kcjoor Issued a notice , calling the attention
of everybody in general to the fact that any
one who knowingly violated an Injunction
was liable for contempt of court. Arme3
with this document the altoinoy histened
back and ordered the men to quit work. He
then read the notice signed bv ludge Keysor ,
which Foreman Beverly Immediately submit
ted to City Attorney Council , who vvas also
on the ground.
Mr. Connell advised the foremin that while
the Burlington railroad had been enjoined
from grading the alle'y , the city was not a
pirty to the case and had a perfect right to
do the work. Then the ( .hovels were put to
work again and kept at it all day. Long be
fore midnight the last shovelful of dirt had
! )0fn removed from the alley and the peiple
will now have an unobstructed passage to the
new depot
In discussing the situation. City Attorney
Connell sild "Thpie can bo no question ol
the right of the city to grade any public alley
If It U considered desirable for thu public
welfare. If any property owner Is damiged
thereby he has his remedy In a suit for dam
ages So far as the Injunction grante-1 by
Itidgp Keysor Is concerned. It Is clear tha'
It had no application to the city If the
Burlington railroad had trleJ lo grade the
alley It would certainly have been In con
tempt of court , but the same restraint doe ;
not He against the city It Ii3 exactly the
simo aa though 5,01110 corporation or Indl-
viduil had attempted to tear up the pave
ment on Tenth street and had been enjoined
It certainly would not follow that the city
could not take up the pavement when II
became necessary In pursuance of public Im
provements "
The Burlington ofllclals eecmed surprised
when they learned that the alley was belnp
graded , but they exhibited no symptoms o1
Indignation W. L Pliclps of Lincoln , the
assistant cnglne r In charge > of the construc
tion of the new depot , happened to be Ir
tlio city yesteidiy morning and was nt once
sent down for the purpose , as he explilnei
It , of seeing that the property of the Burling ,
ton was not interfered with by the grading
A lot of the earth from the alley wts dumpei

neer Pholrs.sald that the city would have tt
