PHILADELPHIA, March 2S.-Iu regard Il
the panic among the free traders and th'
advocates Of Morrison's bill, Mr., Robert P
Porter telegrAphs the Pres' from Washing
iugton as follows:
Randall had several interviews to-day
with members Of the Ways and Means
Committee. Breckenridge, OF Kentucky
who is at heart the most radical free trader
told Mr.. Randall that he would be willing
10 make any reasonable concession for the
sake OF party unity; that personally he
Breckenridge, thought the Morrison meas
ure moderate one, and he had contemp'
lated adding several important items from
the chemical schedule to the free-list, but
he would not press these matters, Mr.,
Randall gave him no assurances for any
one bat htmseltfaud said he was willing
10 20 into conference. Substantially the
same ground was gone over with Mills and
with Morrison,
The Free,traders are willing, as 1 said
last night, to COnCede anything to save the
bill, The most important interview which
the publication Ia this mornings Press
brought about was between the Speaker
and Mr.. Randall Mr.. Randall was closet
cd with Mr.. Carlisle for some time, The
Pennsylvania leader said, in his opinion,
the time for conference was passed, The
members OF the Democratic party who
thought as he thought on the tarilI
question had been. ignored In making
up the committee, which consisted en-
tirely CT Free.traders on the Demo-
cratic side. The tariff Democrats had
asked for the appointment Of one strong
FFoteCtionist and one moderate man on
THAT committee. The Speaker had abso'
lutely ignored this request, and as MIR,
Morrison had now prepared bill, 10 part
OF which In itself was satisiA iACtory to him.
self aud to many WHO thought as he did,
was 1t not late to ask for conference ?
Speaker Carlisle had nothing to offer in
reply to this Sill Me-. Randall said that
no, personally, was IN favor OF harmony,
and would consent to conference, but in
so consenting he only spoke for himself
and not for others,
There are at least doZsn Democrats
who will stand firmly by the four proposl.
tions published yesterday, and they have
not quite made up their minds whether
they will accept any other terms but un.
conditional surrender. IL is not that they
ara opposed to tariff revision; on the con
trary, they would welcome 1t. They will,
however, fight senseless reduction, which
will leave them idle workmen to deal with
when they return home. They will
rather vote with the Republicans than
consent to purely reduCElye revision.

was treated by NJ. Pastsur to prevent rab-
bles, died last night In great agony, with
all the symptoms OF hydTophobla. M. Pas.
teqr Is not at all dismayed by the failure
Of his treatment in this case.
The Russians arrived here and were
placed under Pasteur's care on March Is.
they were Mullks, and were nineteen in
number, All had been attacked by mad
wolves and terribly laCerated, Pasteur
willingly undertook to treat them, and at
once placed them In his hospital, The
man who died had been carefully operated
upon and regularly lnoculated with
virus twice q day since bis arri-
val, His terrible death with all
the symptoms Of hydrophobia in itI
worst form has seriously checked conf
denCe In the effectiveness OF Pasteur's dis
covery. The first positive indications that
the patients system was resisting treat
ment manifested themselves on the Sun
day after he had been In the hospital Ave
days. He soon afterwards became q
victim Of the most terrible suffer-
Ing and this seemed to increase
up to his death, which occurred while the
man was mad and wild with physical tor
ture, The corpse hss been removed to
Pasteur' g labratory, where 1t will be made
the subject Of examination by the scientist.
NJ. Pasteur Is much annoyed by the un-
favorable comments caused by this failure
ot his method, but he insists that 1t estab-
fishes nothing.

Of several volleys from revolvsrs and

LONDON, March 23.-ship.buildsrs and
iron masters throughout Great Britain are
jubilant over the passage by the House OF
the largo naval estimates demanded by
Lord Rtpon. There is little prospect Of
any great demand for new merchant
steamers during the coming season, owing
to the continued depression in the carry
Ing trade, so that there was very poor
outlook for any extensive revival ofship
building ior for finding work for the
thousands Of unemployed artisans whose
work ofvArlous kinds, contributes TO the
making Of ships. Tbs voting Of the naval
estimates, however involves the expen-
dlture oil nearly $05,000,000, and contem-
plates more construction work on naval
yessels during the next twelve months
than has been undertaken by England in
any one Of the past thirty years, This,
while not sufficient to entirely relieve
the present depression, will at least give
considerable impetus to ship building and
It's attendant industries.
