A SENATE SUBSTITUTE
To Be Reported for the Mckinley
Bill

WASHINGTON, May 22.-It is the pres
ent intention of members Of the senate
finance committee to report a substi-
tute for the Mckinley tariff bill when
their consideration of that measure shall
have been completed. This course is
deemed to be better than to report the
bill as it came from the house, with
amendments. For, when it goes into
conference, there will be but one ques-
ton to settle. instead of myriad of diff
ferences upon points in detail. This was
the course pursued with the tariff bill of
1883, and it was found to result in say
ing of time. The finance committee
will endeavor to maintain its determin-
alton not to give oral hearings to any
interested parties; but it was reported
to-day that importers of several cities to
the number of 1000 would come to
Washington next week demanding to
be heard. If any such number, or even
a much smaller one, appears in body.
it is probable that the committee will
open its doors to the representatives.

DON'T Care to Strike.

BUFFALO, N. Y, May 22.-It is
learned that the action of the Rochester
convention of railroad conductors in
eliminating the anti-strike clause from
the constitution of the order of railway
conductors is likely to dislntegrate that
organization. The Hoboken division
division has surrendered its charter and
the New Haven division withdrew its
delegate. An Eastern delegate is quoted
as saving that the action of the conven-
ton would certainly result in the with
drawal of a large majority, if not all of
the New England, New Jersey and
Pennsylvania divisions from the order
and the formation of anew organization
on a strictly non-striking basis.

financial system of the country, he
said, was in disarray, 1t compre-

Separately and collectively they were
out of joint. The currency was in
sufficient in volume to maintain prices,
and was irresponsible to laws of trade.
Taxation was eXcessiye-a worse than
useless burden, and the public debt had
been put in such anomalous relations to
the laws that the government appeared
on both sides of the sales counter in the
