srT1oS FOUND TO BE FuTrLE-THx PRESIDENT
AND TIE sECRrrARr-rHE QUESTION NOW Is
HOW TO AMEND THE TARIFF BILL.
The combination to crowd Mr.. Blaine out Of
the cabinet and party has failed to come 70
anything. It is very generally understood at
the Capitol now that the ways and means COM
mittee are weakening in their opposition
to the Blaine reciprocity plan. The attempt
to drag the President into An attitude of
active antagonism to Mr.. Blaine has failed.
Whatever may be the natural antagonism be-
tween the President and Mr.. Blaine, they are
at this time necessary to each other. Mr..
Blaine is necessary to the administration. To
make war on him is reckless short
sightedness. There is very general
impression among democrats and republicans
alike that Mr.. Blaine is one of the strongest
men who has ever been at the head of the
State Department. The republican leaders in
the House see in Mr.. Blaine's reciprocity plan
danger to the Mckinley bill and they are fight
ing against it.
MENACE TO TARIFF REDUCTION.
The democrats see in these suggestions, il
adopted, menace to their position on the
tariff, for the reason that such re-
ciprocity we'll established would certainly
postpone their favored tariff reduction
indefinitely. The anti Blaine men in the House
have failed to get Mr.. Harrison to join them
actively in fight against the able Secretary of
State, and 1t is becoming evident that they will
have to abandonit. The Senate was first to see
the futility of an open fight against proposition
as popular as that advanced by Mr.. Blaine and
since the suggestion first came they have been
trying TO devise some compromise by which
the plan might be adopted without destroy
Ing the rest of the Mckinley
bill: Having practically concluded that some
such amendment as that proposed by Senator
Pierce or by Senator Aldrich could reconcile
the Blaine idea to the rest of the bill, they
have been trying to reach some sort of under
standing with the majority OF the ways and
means committee to end the Juggling at cross
purposes.
THE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE.
The ways and means committee assumed
belligerent attitude ut first and there has been
deal of planning and talking about driving
Blaine out of the party. This war talk, which
reached high pitch, has greatly subsidized within
the past few days, and members Of the ways
and means committee are understood to have
given a sort of halfway consent to some sort of
a reciprocity amendment if one could be drawn
that would not mean too much.
The indications are the ways and means are
preparing to let Mr.. Blaine stay in the party
and to take the other alternative that seemed
to present itself to them when they said they
would have to down" MIR. Blaine or surrender
to him.
ANXIETY IN THE SENATE.
deal Of anxiety as to the fate of the tariff
bill has developed in the Senate recently, and
it has become evident that the party leaders in
the House cannot afford to exhaust themselves
in fighting the leader of the party In the State
Department

room SO that the patient and his brother might
be together.
Yesterday morning DR.. Hammond made a
careful examination of the patient, whom he
found suffering from hypochondria, and assure
him that he would fully recover in q months
other, and this morning they arose and went
out together for long walk.
HIS LAST SHAVE.
When they returned the sick one shaved HIM

feeling much better. When he had finished
shaving his brother put the razor back into his
vaiise and locked it, placing it near the door.
some distance from the front window, where
the looking glass stood.
Here are some long hairs" said the patient,
Pointing over his ear, land wish you would
get me pair OF scissors to clip them"
The brother who was ready to wait upon the
invalid, lost no time in going for the scissors.
He only had to walk across the hall, a distance
OF less than dozen feet, to the nurses room
TO get them and wasabsent from the room only
about two minutes
AsHoCKryG SIGHT.
Returning across the hall his eyes fell upon
o blood-stained bureau and wall, and looking
on the floor he saw his brother dying with the
razor by his side.
The weapon had done effectively the work
intended.
Dr. Tompkins was called, but his services
were unavailing, as the wounded man died in
less than fifteen minutes.
DELIBERATE AND DESPERATE
As soon az his brother left the apartment
PEDRO must have sprang across the room,
secured the valise, which he quickly tore open,
and got the razor
Then he stood in front Of the glass to see
that his bloody work was well done.
The cut extended from the left side Of the
neck nearly around to the backbone to a point
on the right side OF the windpipe. Both the
windpipes and jugular vein were severed and
the razor cut az deep as though it
was driven by machinery instead Of by a mans
hand. When the doctor reached him the cash
across the throat had thrown his head back
almost as much as il his neck had been broken.
