The Deficiency Bill Passed The Anti
Options Bill Comes Up.
WASHINGTON, July 1a-In the Senate
to-day a conference was ordered on the for
tidoations bill, and Messrs. German. Stewart
and Allison were appointed conferess on the
part Of the Senate.
Consideration of the deficiency bill was
then resumed, and the pages containing the
items of French spoliation claims which bad
been reserved Saturday were read, and the
amendment as a whole was agreed to.
Mr.. Pettigrew moved to insert an item Of
$4,000 for the collection and publication
lin connection with the worlds Columbian
exposition) OF statistics OF the moral. In
tsllectuai and industrial progress of the
colored people of the United States since
July, 1855. This WAS agreed TO. The bill
was reported from committee of the whole
to the Senate, and all the amendments were
agreed to in bulk.
Mr.. Perkins asked unanimous consent to
have struck from the bill an item Of s., 600
for the widow of the late Senator Plumb
of Kansas; and he read letter from Mr.
Plumb's son, stating that the item had been
inserted without his mothers knowledge
and against what she believed would be his
fathers wishes. Nor objection being made
the item was struck out and then the de-
dciency bill was passed.
On motion of Mr.. Washburn, the anti
options bill was taken up, but was tempo
rarily and informally laid aside for other
business.
Several bills on the calendar were passed
and then Mr.. PETER desired to have tue
resolution for the selection of q committee
on the Homestead conflict taken up for
action, but Mr.. Washburn objected on the
ground that it would probably give rise 30
debate, and Mr.. Cameron confirmed that
objection by saying that his colleague
tMr. Quay, who was not present, desired to
address the Senate upon It, The opponents
OF the anti-options bill then interposed a
series Of motions which had the character
of dilatory motions, and which were also
designed TO oust the anti-options bill from
its position Of precedence. The friends Of
the measure were strong enough, however,
TO resist all those efforts, and when the
Senate adjourned the anti-options bill was
the unfinished business, to come up at 2
o'clock tomorrow.

GERS, who are now working TO this end in
Washington. have united in issuing an ap-
peal on the subject to the House OF Repre-

TO DEFEND M'KINLEYISM.
REPUBLICAN SENATORS TO Try TO
FOOL THE PEOPLE.

A Statement Being Prepared to be
Given Out by the Finance Commit
tee-lt VIII Claim That the Rise IN
Prices After the Passage of the Bill
Was Only Temporary.
WASHINGTON, July 1s.-"rhat Is an
executive secret and 1 cannot talk about
it," said Senator John Sherman, with a
quiet smile, to-day, when he was asked
whether the finance committee had given
any consideration to the tariff bills which
have passed the House. ''We have q meet
ing Tomorrow" he added, land l would
not like TO anticipate its action"
The meeting tomorrow will be about the
last opportunity for the republican majori-
ty of the finance committee to aot on the
bills which have passed the House. They
have not been considered heretofore, ex-
cept by way Of incidental mention,
and it is doubtful IL decisive
action Is taken tomorrow. Is has been
understood that the republicans on the COM
mittee would dismiss all the bills with a
strong high tariff report, but 1t is doubtful
if they will give them even this measure Of
consideration. Republican senators seem
to feel that they can safely snap their fia-
gers in the face of the popular majority Of
1,000,0 900 votes which was given in 1890
against McKinleyism. They are preparing
a demonstration that McKinlsyism is not
30 bad as 1t might be after all, and they
hope to have this ready for the committee
on finance tomorrow.
THE MEN WHO ARE TO FRAME IT.
Senator Allison, Senator Aldrich and Sem
ator Hiscock will submit majority report
on the effect of the Mckinley bill upon re-
tail prices. They hope to have the report
in such shape that it can be submitted to
the Senate on Wednesday. There are some
2 900 printed pages of prices, but the report
prepared by the three republican senators
will ill about sixty pages. They will prob
ably be compelled to admit that prices ad-
vanced temporarily after rspasssgs Of the
Mckinley bill, but they will insist that
the advance was not due 20 the
details of the bill so
much as TO the excitement aroused by the
tariff agitation. They will insist that the
general tendency of prices has been down
ward during the past year, while in Euro
pean countries prices have been advancing
Senator Carlisle and Senator Harris are
the minority of the subcommittee which
has been looking into this matter, and
they take a different view from the ma
joity, but delaying the publication of the
report till the last moment before adjourn
ment is a shrewd move upon the part of
the republican senators and may delay any
effective answer. The inquiry was author
lied at the short session Of congress early
in 1891, and the committee, even with the
assistance Of Labor Commissioner Wright,
has taken year and a half to gather its
data.

HARRISON AND OHILE.
The Call for the Full Correspondence
to be Discussed.

me Call Tor the Full Correspondence
to be Discussed.
WASHINGTON, July 1S.-Whether to call
for the full correspondence regarding the
Chilean affair will probably be discussed at
the meeting of the committee ON foreign
affairs on Thursday. Chairman Blount and
Gov. McCresry have had 1t in mind ever
since the controversy over the matter in
January to ask the President TO send to con-
gress the correspondence had since that
time regarding the amount Of the indemnity
aud the progress toward a final settlement.
They have delayed because they did not
wish to take any step which would look like
bullying Chile, OF which they think there
has already been enough. Tho negotiations
regarding the indemnity have been $40 " and
this will appear in the correspondence il
submitted. There is reason to believe. how
ever, that q satisfactory settlement Will
finally be reached, and that Senior Montt
will return here as minister. II was largely
through personal differences with Secretary
Blaine that Senior Montt was led TO with
draw from the country, and friends OF his
declared, as soon as the resignation of Mr.
Blaine WAS announced, that he would prob
ably return here. Mr.. Blount has not yet
decided what will be the best course for the
committee to take regarding the later cor
respondenoe, and, in view of the improba-
bility of getting it up before adjournment,
he may report resolution asking that it
be submitted at the next session with every.
thing received up to that time.

WASHINGTON, July 15.-"Is Tom Garter
a Roman Catholioi" is the question which
was asked around the capitol to-day. Some
body had started this statement that the
new chairman OF the republican national
committee had been selected partly because
he was a member of the Roman Catholic
church to oppose the probable selection of
W. #. Harrity as chairman of the demo-
cratic national committee. No one seemed
to be able TO say definitely what
Tom Carter's religious affiliations were, or
whether he had any. He is expected here

the holy see has approved Of the aotion OF
Archbishop Ireland regarding Saltwater

The pope, receiving the pupils of the

on Archbishop Irelaad, his vigor as

bishop, he said, was a true republican and
genuine democrat, and since leaving Rome
had done good work for the church in Paris.
These remarks were received with enthu-
siasm by those present They have made a
generally profound impression, as showing
shat the archbishop has the confidence Of
the holy father. Certain cardinals have
been renewing the pressure on the pope to
respond directly to the French Catholic
