 The several committees for Founders day met last night at the City Hall. It was the final meeting of the committees, and all the arrangements for that day were perfected.

The Tariff to be Discussed Continu-
 OusIY and Without Limit.

WASHINGTON, April 23.-The Democratic representatives held caucus to- night to re- ceive the report of the Democratic members of the ways and means committee on the re- suit of their efforts to arrive at an agreement with their Republican eolleagues as to the time to be allotted for debate on the tariff bill. The Republican ultimatum, fifty hours of the daily sessions of the House for their side, was not received with favor, but a prolonged discussion failed to result in any plan that might fairly be expected to reduce the time demanded by the Repub- licans The general sentiment of the caucus finally crYstallized in the opinion that it would be inexpedient to attempt to limit de- bate on the tariff at this time, that it wo uld be best to resume immediately the considera- ton of the bill and work industrioasly at it. hoping that as the debate progressed the House would become wearied and be in humor to curtail it. The following resolution was unanimously adopted: That it is the opinion of the cau- GUS that the tariff discussion shall be re- stunned to morrow and continued to a conclu- sion to the exclusion of other business ex- cept that night sessions may be held and if not required for debate on the tariff shall be employed in current legislation, the direction heretofore given touching an amicable ar- rangement as to the time of debate on the tariff bill to continue in force

THE EMPEROR STILL GAINING. His Fever Decreasing and His Appe-

 Still Critical But He Does Not Despair
 of Recovery.
 BERLIN, April 23.-The Emperors general condition is satisfactory. He lay on sofa this afternoon. The discharge from the throat is copious. Sometimes some of the matter drops downward, causing cough. The swelling of the glands has decreased. For breakfast the. e..Emperor ate some beef and fowl and an hour later he took broth and eggs. During the day he spoke cheerfully to the doctors This afternoon he had conference with Prince Bismarck lasting an hour and a half.
 The Emperor rose at noon and spent sever al hours reclining on sofa in room adjoin- ing his bedroom where he received Prince Bismarck at o'clock. He has good appe- tite and his strength is increasing. Toward evening there was 8 slight increase of fever. In the morning the doctors informed the Elm peror that should his favorable progress con- tinue he might remain up all tomorrow, but only on condition that he transacted no busi- ness. The Emperor has not given up hope of recovery, but his condition is still critical.
 With reference to the adverse comments of the newspapers on the treatment of the Em- peror's case the Empress has written to Dr. Friedberg, the minister of justice, as fol- lows: Although personally indifferent to the attacks of the press cannot bear to see the Emperor's doctors who are attending him with the greatest devotion openly slaunder ed." Her majesty requests the minister to interferes1n the matter.
 A bulletin issued at g o'clock p. m. says that the condition of the Emperor during the day remained unchanged and that he left his bed for short time.
 When the Emperor received the gift of violets yesterday from the crowd outside the castle he requested the Empress to go and thank the lady who had suggested the idea. The lady, doctors wife from Frankfort, was summoned to the palace and the Em- press expressed to her and the people the thanks of she Emperor. The lady returned toithe crowd outside and deliver the Elm peror's message which was received with the greatest enthusiasm.
 pr. Mackenzie for the first time in nine days took a walk in the park yesterday. He has writtensto the Kreuz Zeitung and the Post denying the charges against him and stating that he summoned Dr. Bergman with due courtesy.
