 Washington, July 3.-within an hour
 and half of midnight the senate to-
 night passed the tariff bill. During the
 day the proceedings were dull and uns
 interesting, excepting at times when
 they were enlivened by passages of
 words between some of the senators,

 which during the day were almost de-
 serted, were filled with spectators,
 among them being many ladies. The
 chamber was intensely hot, 1t was
 sweltering, in fact, and some of the
 people in the galleries were obliged to seek the outer air. The senators on the floor of the cham
 Der did not appear to mind the heat in the least. Early in the day they were at their seats prepared for
 the battle royal, the final pas
 sage of the tariff bill. Rapid progress
 was made from the time that the bill
 was taken up and after 10 o'clock to-
 night the bill passed amid the applause
 of the people in the galleries and the
 senate adjourned until Friday.

 the body that voted against the bill.

 maintained all through.
