ESPECIAL DISPATCHES TO THE arconD-vslos.l
DOMESTIC.


grant forfeiture bill, and it is the present
intention to allow days debate on the
| measure before putting it on its passage.
If the temper of the House is favor
able, this bill will be followed by other for
| feiture bills, in the order in which they
stand on the calendar, and their con-
| sideration and the necessary action upon
the conference reports will fill out
| the week. Apparently unsurmountable
| parliamentary obstacles threaten to thwart
| Mr.. Morrison in his desire to secure action
| of the House on his resolution directing
| the redemption of United States securities
| to the extent of the treasury surplus. The
| resolution is not privileged under the
| present rules of the House nor is the bill
providing for new naval establishment !;
| bnt in case it is the determination of the
promoter to secure some action by the
House during the next ten days, if il be
within the bounds of possibility. As the
fiscal year will expire before the end OF the
regular appropriation bills has become a
law, Congress will be required TO make
temporary provision for the executive de
partments. This is expected to be done by
passing a resolution authorizing the CON
tinuance for a few days of the expendi-
lures Tor the several branches of service
upon the basis of appropriations for the
present year.
RandalFs Tariff Bill.
WAsHrNGToY, June 27th.-Randall will
to morrow introduce his tariff bill in the
House. The bill, he says, does not contain
anything novel or extraordinary, and is
designed to build up much-needed indus
tries relieve those that are languishing and
remove the inequalities in the existing
laws. He does not claim that the bill is
complete or perfect measure of tariff re-
vision, but holds that it is decided step in
the right direction, and a sufficient indiea-
cation of the policy that should be pur-
sued in remodeling the tariff and revenue
laws. The changes in the rates proposed
are to go into effect on the 1st of January.

Turf Matters.
New YORK, June 2Sth--A. M.-The Times
says: Up to the present Dwyer Brothers
have won twenty-five races, representing
nearly SOL 1000, and they have not yet found
it necessary to call upon their stable re-
serves. 1t is said that there are several
two-year-olds in the string that are close TO
fremont i'll speed and should this prove
true other owners have not a brilliant
prospect before them.
The Coney Island Jockey Club has
shown disposition to dispense with SELL
ing races as far as possible, and have al
ready substituted two sweepstakes ior two
wear olds in place of them. This action is
conaonant with the sentiment expressed by
the best class of turfmen, but the Mon
mouth Association still retains them on its
programme, giving one race of the kind ev-
cry day throughout the season, to-
gether with a steeplechase or hurdle
race. As steeplechasing has fallen
into desuetude at Sheepshead Bay and
Brighton Beach, the meeting of the Rock
away Steeple Chase Association, which is
to be given on Monday and Wednesday,
July 5th and 7th, will be a source of de-
light to owners of so-called cross-country
horses and those who are particularly fond
of that kind ofsport.
The grass track at Sheepshead Bay has
been a failure. Training horses on dirt
track and running them on turf could not
have been expected to be successful.
HAGGINs STABLE.
New YORK, June 27th.-The Tribune
says: The Eastern division of Haggin's 5
stable has gone to Chicago so that the
horses which compose the string may all
be together. One reason for this was that
the o-year-olds which had Eastern en-
gagements had no hope of winning in the
races in which the mighty fremont is
started.
