CONGRESS SATURDAY.
summary of the Proceedings In the House
Of Representatives.

Of Representatives.
WASHINGTON, June 10.-It is expected
that Mr.. Van Wyck's proposition 10 consider
the nominations for Tariff Commissioners
IN open session will be called UP to-day in
the Senate Of the United states, and there
is possibility that 'sa protracted debate,
covering the whole tariff question" may be
indulged in before action on the resolution
is had. The regular unfinished business
before the Senate is the Japanese Indemnity
bill. After it has been disposed of (perhaps
before), the Senate may be called upon to
decide question of precedence between the
Bankruptcy bill aud the House bill to extend
the charters of the National banks.
In the House, District of Columbia bills
have been made the order for to-day's ses-
sion, following the call for States, but the
order may be set aside to complete the
Legislative Appropriation bill. Next in
order will come the River and Harbor bill ;
beyond that nothing Is yet settled. There is
talk of another Republican caucus to be
held this or tomorrow evening, for the
definite settlement Of the party policy in
regard to the matter Of reducing internal
taxation. 1t is likely that the result will be
an arrangement for the early passage Of the
modified bill agreed ON by last Wednesdays
caucus, repeating the taxes on bank checks,
bank deposits, matches and proprietary
medicines.
Of the IA regular annual appropriation
bills before the present session of Congress
only four have yet become laws, namely
the Fertilization, Indian, Post Office and
Agricultural bills. The Military Academy
and District of Columbia bills are before
the House COMMITTEES on Appropriations
on the question Of concurring in Senate
amendments. The Army bill will go to IA
| conference committee the principal ques-
| tiOn being the Senate amendment making
| 81 years instead Of 62 the age for retirement
! of army officers. The Consular and Diplo-
| matte bill has been reposing with II confer
enee committee for nearly three months.
The General Deficiency bill is in the hands
of the Senate Committee on Appropriations
the Legislative Appropriation bill expected
to reach the Senate by Wednesday the
River and Harbor, Sundry Civil and Naval
bills are yet to be acted upon by the House,
| the two latter not having been reported.

THE CONsULs ATTACKED.
Twenty Persons Killed By Riot at Ale

Twenty Persons Killed by Riot at Alex
andrIa--A Reign of Terror.
ALEXANDRIA, June 1l.-Serious riots
broke out to-day between the hostile natives
and Europeans, during which several per
sons were killed and wounded, and a num-
ber of houses and other property destroyed.
The immediate cause of the riot was the
stabbing of an Arab by a Maltese. A mob
of natives collected, cleared the streets with
sticks and made their way into the great
square, where they demolished the music
payilions. Europeans pereipitately fled the
square, and took refuge at the French Con-
sulate. Soldiers were called out but looked
on without interfering during the work of
demolition and bloodshed.
The rioters, leaving the square, proceeded
to the French Consulate where further
violence was committed.
During the riot the British Consul WAS
struck on the head with a hludgeou and
severely injured, though not fatally. An
engineer of the British man-of-war Superb
was instantly killed. The Greek Consul and
Italian Vice-Consul were also severely in
jured. 1t is estimated that 90 persons were
killed during the five hours that the riot was
In progress. The authorities were very slow
about putting down the mob, but finally
cleared the streets and restored order.
The British man-of-war Superb will arrive
in rort during the night and will land 200
men to protect the British Consulate. Boats
will be sent to take ON board all British sub
jects who desire to leave Alexandria.

Prominent Importers Request the Presi-
dent to Change the Tariff Commissions.
New YORK, June 11.-A memorial, Origf-
mated by the leading members of the
Chamber of Commerce is IN circulation
among prominent merchants to-day, request
ing the President TO appoint practical
business man familiar with Custom House
matters as member of the Tariff Commits
sion. The memorial was signed by large
number of merchants. 1t appeals to the
Presidents own experience as chief officer
of the customs revenue at this port,
which experience 1t says twill sustain them
(the Memorialists) in the assertion that fea-
tures exist in great number in our present
tariff which ought to be changed, and
thut the law shall be purged of such defects
whether the nature of the tariff as to protec-
tion of home industry be altered or not.
Your personal experience also will confirm
the assertion that THESE objectionable fea-
lures of the existing tariff are to great de-
gree hidden from the public view, aud are
fully realized and appreciated only by the
importer, and by comparatively small
number of revenue officers. Another me
mortal to the same effect WAS circulated
among prominent manufacturers and was
signed by George W. Dare d Co., McKessor
