WASHINGTON, June 1S.-The tariff bill
was reported to the senate to-day. The
understanding is that the debate on tina
bill will not begin until about July
in order that ample time may be-
given for study of the bill. A mem
Der of the finance committee says
that the Democrats ntimated that if OPP
portunity were given in advance to study
the schedule the debate would be mate
rally curtailed.
REED AND THE SILVER BILL.
The vote of the house to-day agains
motion for the committee of the whole to
rise to give an opportunity for a motion
TO take the silver bill from the speakers
table was significant merely of the fact
that the silver men in the honse are not
going to act hastily. The more conserv-
ative of them want time to consider what
is to be the outcome OF this action aud
the chances seem to be that the speaker
will give them ali the time and
perhaps more than they want.
There is n determination on the
part of the speaker and those members of
the house who are supporters of the
administration and its policy,
that the bill shall go to con-
ference. Should they succeed free
coinage would surely be defeated
for the reason the ultra silver men,
those who want nothing short of free
coinage, are fighting against confer
ence and want a direct vote on motion
to concur in the SENATE amendment. The
skill of the speaker will doubtless be
taxed to prevent such vote,
ana it Is suggested that to accomplish
this the speaker may hold the bill on his
table, not reporting it to the house until
he is satisfied that it will receive con-
sentative action. He would probably re-
sort to pretty vigorous action II necessary
to prevent the adoption of free coinage
without consideration of the matter in
conference.
NEW MEXICO FOREST FIRE.
The commissioner of the general land
Office has received a telegram from Spe-
cial Agent Booth at Santa Fe, N. M,
saying that great fire is raging in the
Jaurez mountains in that vicinity, and
that it has already burned over and de-
stroyed the timber on forty miles
of territory. He says that the fire is
travelling rapidly, and as the territory
authorities will render no assistance he
asks for government aid. In response
Commissioner Golf has authorized the
expenditure of $500 in subduing the fire.
MEXICO MOVES FORWARD.
The secretary of war has received
copy of decree of the Mexican govern
ment of May %, providing for uniform
popular gratuitious compulsory educa-
ton in the Federal district and in the
territories of Topic and Lower California.

Scenes in the House-The Silver Bill.
anecial TO the Gazette.


Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, June lS.-When the
silver bill came into the house at LAS p.
m. it was followed across the capitol by
a crowd anxious to see what the silver
men were going to do. The house was
in committee of the whole, in which
capacity it could not receive the bill, but
the speaker was close to the desk ready
for an emergency, and Journal Clerk
Smith, parliamentary expert of the
house, was standing up in front of the
chairman, prompting hun as to his con-
duct. A motion that the committee rise
to allow the house to receive the message
from the senate met with no objection,
and Reed stepped promptly into the
chair. But no sooner had the secretary
of the senate made his bow after his an
nounoement than Reed was down on the
floor again before advantage could be
taken of his official presence for mo-
ton. Mr.. Bland then moved chat ths
committee rise in order that tho house.
might proceed to Immediate oonsidera-
ton of the bin just brought it. After
some delay, due TO the reading of the
passage, which reading the clerk WAS
painfully wading through, the mo-
ton was renewed and vote
taken on it. .HThe Democrats were in
pretty full force, anticipating tight,
while the Republicans numbered a mere
handful. But the speaker strobe through
the sisles, speaking to one and whisper
ing TO another, and casting ominous
glances at the third Republican suspected
of weak knees. Whips were sent out in
every direction. and Republicans poured
in from the corridors and cloak rooms
A standing vote was taken slowly, and
by the time the tellers had gathered the
votes the speaker had his little army well
IN hand Then came the most
DRAMATIC EXHIBITION OF DISCIPLINE
witnessed for some time. The speaker
planted himself beside the teIlers and
watched and counted every Republican.
Not one of them even qusiled, but pro-
silver and anti-silver factions were pas
sed with scarcely a grimace under the
yoke. BY the time the vote was an
nouneed, Reed s face, which within
fifteen minutes wore as many different
expressions, worked itself into one of
cheruhic cheerfulness. His eyes swept
the press gallery with glance of beam
ing satisfaction, and the last seen Of him
he was walking into the speakers lobby
with his arm around Anderson of Kansas,
a silver man, aud an independent whose
revolt had been feared down to the last
moment, but who had finally followed
the crowd and supported the speakers
policy, aud the speakers chubby fingers
we're patting the back OF his companion
with long tattoo of approval. The
Democrats took their defeat good
naturally.
