Then he removed his vest and looked down

Some of the crowd asked each other in loy

and then spit "a his hands aui took his posi-

There was half minute of silence, during
which everybody mentally calculated ON the

like a shudder passed over the crowd Then
the unknown man spit on his hands once
more, raised them above his head, and calmly
remarked:

Passengers on the west side Of II down train
on the Sixth avenue elevated road yesterday
morning caught glimpscs of something that
excited n brief but lively interest, at least
among tn. hallhcadcd men aboard. \ large
front window of the fitting room Of a dress
makers establishment on tho second floor was
wide open. AMI inside appeared a lady about
trying on dress in apparent ucon-ciuusuess
that anybody could sec her. She hal oa white
skirts, starched, iioUuccd and ruiIir,l; a little
black silk corset of the kind women wear,
with the full dress costumes, and over each
shoulder lay little band of filmy, lace like
material. The back Of her right shoulder was
toward the window, and she was looking
toward the back Of the room, rs ii waiting
for an attendant to hand To her the dress that
was to hide those round arms and leaning
shoulders. II was surprising how suddenly
and unanimously the men on the west side of
the train saw her.
Rather pretty free show, that" com
mented passenger To the saturninc guard,

gate at the next station.

The general tenor of their remarks leads to the

The Tariff Bill.
PROBABILITY OF ITS PASSAGE By A CLOSE VOTE
IN THE HOUSE.

PROBABILITY OF ITS PASSAGE By A CLOSE VOTE
IN THE HOUSE.
1t is generally believed in the House that the
vote on the tariff bill will be much closer than
1t was in the last Congress and that the chances
are in favor of the bill It is probable that Ran
dali cannot get following OF more than % on
the democratic side He can rely upon all the
Ohio democrats, which will give him ten to
start with. He will probably get four besides
Jersey. one from CALIFORNIA, three from West
This would be enough to defeat the bill ii
the republicans voted solidly. But it Is con-
coded by republicans that at least two three
OF their party will vote for the bill. This would
bring the question down to q matter OF one or
two votes.
1Ie reiormers rely largely upon the efforts of
WOODEN manufacturers to force their represent
tatives To vote for free wool, ana it is possible
that more votes will be affected in this way
than prOtectionists now think possible.
The outlook is Tor q very close vote, with q
leaning In favor OF the passage Of the bill, but
the sentiment is Liable 10 change one way or the
other at any time during the debate. Now it
seems as ii a motion 10 strike out the enacting
clause would be beaten.
