COmmittee-Report of Rules Committee

Mr.. Mckinley reported the tariff bill to
the House today from the ways and
means committee. recommending nom
concurrence in the Senate amendments
in gross and that the bill be sent to
conference. He announced in making the
report that it was not unanimous. He fol-
lowed this with report from tho committee
on rules. discharging the committee OF the
whole from further consideration of the tariff
bill and providing for the consideration OF
Senate amendments for two hours in the House
before sending the matter to conference. At
the meeting of the ways and means committee
the democrats demanded formal votes on all
amendments which reduced duties. but. being
outvoted, they did not demand vote on the
general non-concurrence.

result Of the election in Vermont has not wor-
fied me in the slightest 1t may sound rather
funny, but the real trouble in Vermont was that
the farmers were getting in their oats
on election day. There were some other
little troubles which caused falling off in the
republican vote, such as the question of high
license which was Iaised and the sharp per-
sonal canvass between the two candidates for
governor, but the chief and main trouble was
the oats. The weather had been miserable up
to election day. and that otherwise sacred dny
was the first opportunity which the farmers
had had to get in their crops. and they natur-
ally took advantage Of the chance Vermont

THE ROCK CREEK PARK.
A Fair Chance for Action on the Con-
ference Report This Session.

The chance for action on the Rock creek con-
ference report this session seems to be fairly
good at present The STAR has kept its read
ers fully informed on this matter and has
already printed the substitute bill
drafted by the conference committee.
This report has been signed for some
time and has only been awaiting the
return of Mr.. Hemphill for action to be taken
in both House and Senate. Mr.. Hemphill has
now returned and the report may be ex-
pected to be called up almost any day.
Senator Harris today said that he has
been waiting for the report to be passed
by the House to call it up in the Senate. Mr..
Henphill bad acted as chairman OF the confer
ence committee and the matter had largely
been left in his hands, Ho lad therefore con-
sidered that action on the matter should first
be taken by the House.
Mr.. Atkinson, another member of the con-
ference committee also said he had been wait-
ing Mr.. Hemphill's return. He thought the
park matter should be passed and signed this
session, and he was anxious that the matter
should be called up at once.
Gen. Grout was also one of the original con-
ference committee, but was sick at the time the
report was drawn up. He said today that he
intended to see Mr.. Hemphill as soon as possi-
BILE in regard to the matter and find out what
could be done.

MAKING THINGS EASIER.
Measures Taken by the Treasury De-
partment to Relieve the Money Market.

There is a feeling of relief at the Treasury
Department this morning over the latest AS
poets of the money market. 1t is thought that
the worst is over and that the Secretary's
measures will speedily place matters on
their proper basis again. The most potent
factor, it is regarded is the extension
of the period for the withdrawal of goods from
bonded ware houses to February /, thus giving
importers more time to obtain money for the
payment of duties and also a chance to remove
the goods before the Mckinley bill takes effect.
The former time was November /. Gen. Net
Teton said this morning thas he thought this
latter measure afforded fully so per cent of the
relief and that the danger has been passed.
The following circular has been Issued by
the Treasury:
In pursuance of the authority contained in
section Of the act of March 8. 1851, public no.
tice is hereby given that, with a view to the
purchase of $4,000, 900 OF the bonds OF the
per cent loan of 1907, proposals for the sale of
such bonds to the government. will be received
at the Treasury Department, in the city of
Washington d. c., at noon on Wednesday. Sep
tcmber II, 1890. The right to reject any or all
bids is hereby expressly reserved"

FIRED ON A WHALE BOAT.
There May BE a Court Appointed to
Inquire Into the Petrol Accident

Nobody knows just what will be the outcome
Of the recent accident on board the Petrol, re-
sulting in the destruction of whale boat dur
ing target practice. There is story going the
rounds to the effect that just before the gun
was fired a subordinate officer saw the
danger and stepping to the commander, Lieut.
Com. Brownson. said: Captain, if that gun is
fired in that position the whale boat will be
very badly hurt" The commander. it is said
resented the advice and gave orders to fire the
gun.
The gun was fired and the whale boat re-
solved itself into splinters. If this is true a
court Of inquiry will probably follow, for, al
though the value of the boat is small in COM
parison, the principle involved is OF extreme
Importance. Tho boat cost about $500 These
