The Senate is to be congratulated upon
the passage Of tariff biIl not differing
widely from that known as the Mckinley
bin. and, certainly, having no points Of
variance which can not be adjusted in a
committee OF conference between the two
Houses.
Except on sugar, the Senate's amend
ments have been in the line Of further
reduction. And even in sugar the Senate
proposition is a wonderful reduction from
present rates. The sugar question seems
TO be the most complex and troublesome
Of all that arise from practical consider
aiioE Of the relations between tariff, rev.
enue and protection

President power to restore reduced duties
to old rates in the case Of imports from
countries that continue to discriminate
between the trade Of the United States
and other countries may be Wise OF "a
wise. Actual experience will determine

nent Of permanent tariff commission
which shall report from time TO time up
on all statistics Of export, import, foreign
and domestic production and price, and
( the increase or decrease Of United States
production and prices under various

the least meritorious feature Of the pro-
posed commission IS the non-psriisan

Eject IN WashIngton.

As result of Mr.. Reeds signal victory
there is already renewed courage infused all
along the Republican lines in Congress.
This is especially noticeable in the Senate,
where the passage of the Federal Elections
bill early the next session is no longer talk
ed of as possibility, but is now regarded as
a certainty. The vote Of Mr. Reeds district
is not only considered as great endorse
ment Of his course in preventing flibuster
ing and in enforcing the viii and right of
the majority in the House, but is also re-
gsrC.ed as a vote Of direct approval of all the
measures especially urged 5y this admins
tration. and pushed through the House by
the rulings and influence Of Speaker Reed
and his immediate associates. Among the
measures the Federal Elections bill stands
out most conspicuously.
IHdeed, the Democrats have made the
Elections bill a special issue in Mr.. Read Is
district, and several Of the Democratic and
mugwump newspapers Of the country have
distinctly announced that the vote in the
First Maine district yesterday would be ac-
cepted throughout the entire country as a
yenaic, upon the Federal Elections bill. The
verdict has been given. and the friends OF
that msasure are correspondingiy happy.

CAVE CRY, Ky, September "A remark
able somnamhlistic feat was performed a
few nights sg, by Christopher Medway of
this place. sr. Midway is prominent
lawyer and scion of one Of Kentucky's
oldest famiIie. In 1861, at the breaking out
of the war, bis father packed up his silver
plate, which vas very valuable, and hid it
in the Mammsh Cave. This was done in
the midst Of a great hurry and confusion,
and owing to Ome oversight the place was
left unmarked and when, in 1865, the Med
ways wished to dig the silver up no one
could recolIec with any certainty the spot,

had stolen thtbox and refilled the hole.
Mr. Medwais father died convinced that
il was so, andfor more than ten years no
one gave furthr thought TO the matter. But
recently Mrs. iedwsy revived the subject by
relating the sory TO some friends in her
husbands heaing, and that gentleman says
he went to dwondering il his fathers be-
