WASHINGTON, D. c., July 25, 1885,
Saturday afternoon the Mills tariff bill
passed the House by a majority of thir
teen. The House galleries were crowded.
Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. Fairchild, Mrs. Fol-
som, and Mrs. Carlisle were present. The
success of the bill was greeted with loud
applause. The vote stood 1872 for, 149
against the bill. The three Republicans
who voted for the bill were B1ower, of
North Carolina, Fitch, of New York, and
Nelson, of Minnesota. The three Inde-
pendents who voted the same way We're
Anderson, of Iowa, Hopkins, of Virginia,
and Smith, of Wisconsin. The four Dem
ocrats who voted against the measure were
Bliss, Greenman and Merrimon, of New
York, and Sowden, of Pennsylvania. Mich
OILS, of North Carolina, classed in the di
rectory as an Independent, but thorough
Republican, voted against the measure in
which he was not as wise as Brewer, since
he cannot make good his action in the
eyes Of the people of North Carolina, of
all parties who desire the repeal of inter
nal revenue taxes and the modification of
the rigors Of internal revenue laws In
this vote Nichols treated with despite the
expressed wishes of all North Carolina in
order to make himself solid with North
ern Republicans and secure some funds to
use against Capt. Bum. RumOr says he
has failed already III this purpose. His
