10 reach the decisive point when a motion
10 strike out the snacting clause is In or
der. Mr.. Morrison has consented to tenn
porary suspension OF his crusade, because
he has carefully counted noses and finds
that sixty Democrats are hostile to his bill.
Most Of that number would vote to kill
it without giving 1t chance to be amend.
ed in Committee of the Whole. One Of
bis intimates said this to press represen-
tive to day, and added that he regarded
the bill as almost hopelessly beaten now.
Inquiries carefully made had shown that
at least fifteen Democrats who voted last
Tuesday to allow the bill to be discussed
did so out Of respect TO Morrison and other
friends who are deeply interested in the
success OF the bill. They simply accorded
him the courtesy OF their consent to
discussion of the tariff, but they will vote
sgainst the bill. That would make a diff
ference OF thirty votes in favor Of, the op'
position.
In view of this fact it was thought advis-
able to interrupt the debate for few days
until the speeches already made can 60 to
the country and influence be brought t.
bear to win over some of the Democrats
who are now counted doubtful. If this
cannot be done the bill is practically dead
and something else in the way of tariff re-
duction will have to be brought forward.
This is the forlorn hope Of the reformers,
as stated by one Of them who has access to
the facts.

a Firm OF London solicitors Snort
Five and Half Millions.
LONDON, April aO.-The crash and the
scandal attending the flight OF the fashion.
able solicitors, the 4essrs. Parker, prove
worse and worse upon investigation. The
firm was composed Of William Ssarle Par.
ker and Frederick Searls Parker, and had
elegant quarters at No. Il Bedford Row,
W. @. Both lived in sumptuous style, the
former at White Lodge, Fast. Barnet,
n, and Frederick at No. 81 Court
field Gardens, s. W. Their clients were
from among the wealthiest and most aris-
tocratic families OF London and other parts
of England. The tin boxes on their shelves
contained the title deeds of scores of fami.
lies OF the nobility and landed gentry,
and the CONSERVATION was widespread
when it was announced, on March, S,
that both members OF the firm had
fled after having misappropriated
many title deeds belonging to
their clients and borrowed various
sums, then reported to aggregate $780,.
600. The first meeting OF the creditors OF
the abscondipg solicitors was held last
night and the report OF the official inspec-
tor showed that the worst fears were more
than realized. The total liabilities OF the
firm were shown TO amount to no less than
S., 500, Coo while the assets are virtually
nothing. Less than one. third Of the liabil-
titles are secured against and the rest will be
a total loss, bringing absolute financial
ruin in many cases. The business Of the
concern was shown to have yielded legit-
innate profit of SS0, 900 yesr, but the Par
kers were the victims of two forms Of gam-
they dipped constantly deeper and deeper
into the pockets Of their oonfiding .clients
in insane struggles to retrieve past losses
and achieve fortunes at bound. They
are now said to be joiiify:ng upon their Ill .
gotten gains at Boulogne, while many OF
their creditors are reduced from Q condi.
tion Of comfort to actual penury and
want.
