The TartHRi

Washington, 29.-The best opinion
obtainable tonight is almost unani-
nous that the tariff revision IS dead
for this session. Ex-Speaker Ran
dali is the only prominent man on
either side. of the House who does
not privately admit this. Randall
thinks the bill can yet be passed.
The delay in getting the conference
committee together, when every
moment is of such value, and the
fact that the conferees from both
houses are instructed on points
which must be settled before the
main subject is reached, initiate
against the chances Of the bill. The
House yesterday, instructed it's
conferees to consider the constitu-
tional objections to the originatiOn
of tariff measures by the Senate,
and the latter body, to-day, in
structed its conferees if they be-
came advised, that the House con-
lerees were acting under any limi-
tation, to retire from the conference.
With these instructions the COM
mittee meet tonight, and all specu-
lation as to the tariff waits upon the
first report Of progress from them.

Iuterchangsble OttIzenship.

Washington, 2S.-Edmunds this
morning reported adversely to the
Senate, from the committee on judi
Glory, the House bill to provide
for the restoration of citizenship to
such citizens of the United States as
have become naturalized as subjects
of Great Britain, and desire to re-
turn to their original allegiance.
This bill was intended to give the
force of law to the third article
of the convention between
the United States and Great Brit
ain, which was concluded on May
80, 10, which provides that if any
citizen of the United States natur-
lied within the dominion Of Her
Britanic Majesty shall renew his
residence in the United States, the
government may, on his own appli.
cation and on such conditions as
that government may impose, re
admit him to the character anl
privileges ola citizen of the United
States, and Great Britain shall no
in that case claim him as a British
subject on account of his forme

The NewhaII Disaster.

Milwaukee, 2S.-The grand jury
investigating the Newhall House
catastrophe came in with final
presentment to-day, finding a
lengthy report, synopsyzed as fol-
lows:
The fire was incendiary; all lives
were lost within thirty minutes
after the discovery; the hotel was
constructed as any at the time OF
it's erection; John f. Antisdel did
not employ sufficient help, and was
careless in not guarding the hotel
more carefully, after so many at
tennis had been made to burn the
house; of all employees only Engin-
Ger William Linehan eXerted him
self properly to save life; Coroner
Ruepper was brutal, harsh and IN
decent.
