WAsHHGToN. September 2S.-The
Senate Committee on Finance devoted
four hours to the reading OF the new
tariff bill to-day, and reached the end at
hnli-past 3 oclock. Senator Harris ex
poets to receive from Senator Beck on
Monday the latter's suggestions in re-
gard to the minority report, and to be
able to submit them to tie committee by
Wednesday.
As the investigation of the construc-
ton of the new aqueduct tunnel pro-
crosses more fragrant and criminal APP
pears the fraud. A large number Of
holes have been drilled through the walls
Of brick arch III as many sections of the
tunnel, and but few points were found
to have been done in any particular ac-
cordlng to the contract. On the con
trary. there was in most cases an entire
absence of packing, and when found 1t
consisted largely Of loose stones and dry
dirt, aud at best a miserable pretence.
These revelations have created a strong
feeling among the members Of Congress,
and sharp investigation by the cougres-
sional committee Is imminent.
A majority report OF the Utah Com
mission, signed by @. l.. Godfrey, A. b.
Williams, and Arthur l.. Thomas, WAS re-
ceived this morning by the Secretary Of
the Interior. The recommendation Of
the last annual report is renewed that
Utah should not be admitted to the
Union until such d time as the Mormon
people shall manifest by their future acts
that they have abandoned polygamy in
good faith, and not then until an amend
ment shall have been made 10 the Con-
stitution of the United States prohibit
ing the practicetof polygamy. The re-
port adds that the convention winch
adopted the proposed Constitution upon
which an appeal was made to Congress
for admission 10 the Union was held
without authority from any proper
source. 1t is further asserted that the
proposed Constitution Is silent with re-
spect to the time OF polygamy, and the
commissioners are of the opinion that
the Government cannot afford TO surren-
der the great advantage which 1t now
holds, and which has been secured at
much expense and trouble. They also
think that no harm can result from the
delay in the admission OF the Territory.
The House at its evening session
passed thirty-one private pension bills,
and at 1890 adjourned until Monday.

that in the decree Of the court it is set

NO LEGISLATION.
FOR ALL PRACTICAL PURPOSES CON-

Frauds In a centrset-senator Beck
and Mr. Carlisle.
tFrom ON Recular Correspondent.l

WASHINGTON, September 2S.-For
nearly all practical purposes Congress
has already adjourned. The pending
appropriation bills will be reported by
the conferrees and passed, but there will
be no other legislation except perhaps
the passage Of pension bills. That Is
something the Senate is always ready
for. They passed l40 in forty-hye nun
utes the other day. Tomorrow neither
house will be IN session, the SEN
ate having adjourned over to Mon
day from yesterday, and the House
from to-day. Members OF the House
have generally gone home to eau
vass their districts There will be
no quorum in that body before election:
A few members whose seats are secured
beyond peradyenture will remain here 10
watch each other, and to see that no po-
htical advantage is gained by their oppo-
nents, but we shall have no more legis-
lation. A single objection of "no quo
rum can at any moment block the
business before the House.
There is a good deal OF excitement
over the discovery that the contract
ors for the water works tunnel
here have been perpetrating the
boldest of frauds upon the Government
and the District. II seems that for a
great part OF the length Of the tunnel
where the specifications called for solid
masonry a filling of bricks and rubbish
was substituted. The work WAS IN
charge of the United states En-
gineer Department, and the con-
gresFional District Committee are very
indignant that the work OF inspection
has been so loosely performed. An ln-
vestigation will be ordered by Congress,
and all persons engaged in the work from
the officer in charge, Lieutenant Town
send, down to the men employed. Will
be held to the strictest accountability.
Justice Matthews continues to improve
slowly, but his physician. DIR. W. W.
Johnston, now says that he will not be
able to attend the meeting Of the SUI
preme Court on October Sth.
Senator Beck has not returned to
Washington, and letters received from
him to-day render it probable that he
will remain at Old Point for some time
yet. He is gaining strength there every
dsy.
Speaker Carlisle has been unable to
keep several engagements to speak this
week on account Of an attack OF rheu-
matism contracted on his recent visit to
Kentucky. If well enough he will
speak at Lexington, Va, on Monday
next.
