A CLOSE VOTE.

Exciting Discussion In the House Over
the Lamp Chimney Schedule.
WASHINGTON, May 17.-Thers was q
hot fight in the House on the lamp
chimney schedule in the Tariff bill,
A number of Republicans abandoned
the committee on its proposition to in
crease the duty to ten cents dozen and
forty per cent. ad valorem. Mr.. Chand-
Ter, Republican, of Massachusetts,, sent
up an amendment making a slight re-
duction, and General Henderson, of
Iowa, offered a substitute, which was
accepted by Mr.. Chandler, fixing the
duty at tho present rate. On the vote
on the latter the committee won by a
scratch, rejecting Henderson's amend
mont by vote of 1O7 to 1903.
Among the Republicans who voted
with the Democrats were Butterworth,
Kerr, Henderson and Sweeney, of Iowa;
Hopkins and Adams, of Illinois; Taylor,
Tennessee; Lynd, Minnesota, ana Laid
low, of New York. The vote excited the
greatest interest and the Capitol was
being secured by both sides for mem
bers. Four Democrats came into the
hall as the vote was being announced.
They would have made it tie.

BISMARCK BLAMED.

Herr LisbkDeoht bays Germany viii be
Ruined by the War Burden.
BERLIN, May 1.-THE debate Of the
Army bill was resumed in the Reichstag.
Herr Liebknscht declared that the
nation would soon be ruined by the
heavy burden of militarism. He laid
the blame on Prince Bismarck's ten
dency to war. Bismarck, he said, could
have averted the last Russo-Turkish
war, but instead he supported Russia's
aggressions in every way.
Chancellor Caprivi said he believed
that the foreign policy of the Govern
ment continued to be moro and more
harmonious with the feeling of the
people. The bill did not deal with the
question Of impending war, but rather
with providing against the burdens of
possible war. The saigner a blanc, of
which Prince Bismarck had spoken,
would, in the event of war, hold good
despite the ideas of the Socialists. Tho
bill was referred to a committee of
twenty EIGHT.

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, May 17.-An attempt
vas made at the session of the Grand
Division of the Order of Railroad Con-
ductors to reconsider the vote by which
the convention ON Wednesday decided
to eliminate the Anti-striks clause
from the constitution.
The attempt was unsuccessful, the mo-
ton to reconsider being overwhelm-
ingly rejected. This action has caused
war in the camp" of the Grand Divi-
sion. Upon the announcement of the
result of the vote, S. B. Chittenden, .
permanent member of the Grand Divi-
sion, Immediately resigned and with
drew from the convention. Tho con-
servative element in the convention
feels very much aggrieved and it Is
not unlikely that split will occur.
The 6ght win be bitter this afternoon
when the grand officers are to be cleo
ted. Their selection 10, under the
present circumstances, significant and
will have considerable influence in the
future policy of the organization on
the strike question and others almost
equally important.
There are 80 many aspirants for the
chair that 1t is very probable that .
dark horse will be run in at the critical
moment. F. E. Clark Of Utah seems to
be In tho lead, with G. H. wilkins of
Illinois q good second, followed closely
by Martin CLANCY Of Ohio.

Kind fortune showered golden and
silver treasures at the brides feet. She
has more silver and gold table furniture
than she can ever possibly use. Some
OF the more elegant presents are dupli-
Gated over and over again and it is not
an exaggeration to say that Mr.. and
Mrs. Damrosch start in their married
life with a market basket of spoons of
every size and shape.
Secretary Blaine's present was hand
some residence, furnished, on Madison
avenue, New York.
Their First Meeting.
Miss Blaine and Mr.. Damrosch did
pot have their first meeting ON the ia
nous Carnegie coaching trip as has
boon heretofore reported. They met al
most year before that at a dinner
given by Mr.. Carnegie at Kilgarston in
Scotland, where he bad leased the mag
nificent estate for that season. The
seed of acquaintance which was sowed
at that time burst into fructification
under the morning sun of Mr.. CarneRie's
watchfulness during the coaching trip
through Scotland in the next year, for
It was by his arrangement that these
young people were seated side by side
throughout the trip from London to
Cluny castle. At this grand old castle
the courtship proper began, and in
walk across hesth-coversd moors the
lovers slyly whispered the sweet old
story of the young hearts desire.
It would be fulsome fattery to say
Miss Blaine is beautiful young woman,
but 1t may with justice be said that her
face bears those strong characterization,
which, as in the case Of both her father
and her mother, mako a good intellect.
The portrait accompanying this article
is made from photograph taken some
time ago, and shows Miss Blaine In Q
fancy costume worn at young peoples
party. Never since that time has any
body been able to prevail upon her to
cit for portrait. In this picture she
looks very much a. her younger sister
looks at the present time.
