lE TARIFF CONFERENCE
Good Progress Being Maae-Getting to
Work In Earnest.

Work In Earnest.
WASHINGTON, July 2s.-The work of
bringing about an agreement on
the tariff bill began in ear
nest this morning at a pri-
eate and informal conference between
the conferees of tho senate and the
house. The formal conference will be-
gin Monday. There are certain
changes in the bill which are under
stood to DO practically agreed
upon by the conferecs. Some OF
these changes are important in
their character and when they
become known are found to cause more
On less of debate and very much oppo-
sition. In the wooden schedule an
important change is likely to be
made in the paragraph cover
ing women's and children's goods
and mems cloths for clothing. As
the bill passed the senate the duty
On all such goods valued at more than
80 cents a pound was fixed ut so per
cent advalorem and on all goods valued
at not more than 80 cents per pound,
40 per cent advalorem. AS tho con-
ferees will probably fix it
The rate will probably be n
.ate of As per cent on cloths and
general manufactures of wool and 40
per cent on womcn's and children's
dress goods costing less han GO cents
per pound and 80 per cent ad valorem
OH such goods costing more than 90
cents per pound.
Much opposition has been manifested
to changing the senate provision from
81. 80 per pound to 81 per pound on
wrapper tobacco, and II is thought
probable that the rate may be left at
81. so per pound for revenue purposes.
The language of the senate bill will
remain, and also the restrictions As TO
the indiscriminate sale of leaf tobacco
by farmers and small dealers who have,
IL has been claimed. paid no tax and
depleted the of the govern
ment by this method of selling leaf to-
bacco.
The whisky schedule has been finally
disposed of by the senate receding from
It's amendment increasing the tax TO
Sl.lO. 1t has been agreed that the tax
shall remain as the house passed it,
at 81 per gallon, and the bonded
period left at five years. The provi-
sion has been added, however, that in
The event it is desired to keep whisky
IN bond for a further period of three
years it may be done by the payment
Of an annual increase Of 8 cents per gal
lon per year.
The metal schedule has been scaled
down some, the most noticeable in
stance being the reduction of about Is
to 20 per cent on steel rails.
Iron ore and coal will remain as they
are. The duty on wool rovings, or the
tops, will be restored to the house rate
Of - per cent, the senate having made
it 20 per cent. The chemical schedule
has also been changed very materially
in some instances.

ence TO the fire at Phillips last night,
that all the news there was from Prem

CARN0T DIED POOR.
The Murdered French President Left Very
Little Money.

The Murdered French President Left Very
Little Money.
New YORK, July 2s.-A dispatch from
Paris the executors of the estate of the
late President Sadi Carnot made an Off
cial report today of their final inven-
tory, and the official statement is the
subject Of universal comment about the
b~ouievards and political circles. 1t had
generally been supposed that the muir
dered president was we'll endowed with
this worlds goods, but the opposite
proves to be the case. Although his
salary as president of the republic had
been regarded not only as ample for
all emergencies, but also TO leave Il fair
balance for savings or investment, it
transpires that the late president, not
only lived up TO every dollar Of his
official income, but also drew upon the
returns o some small holdings of
real estate in order to maintain what
he regarded rs the dignity of his posi-
ton. The balance &c his account IN
bank on the day of his assassination
was less than 10000 francs, or in the
neighborhood of SO, 200, not more than
sufficient based on the current expen-
ditures of the Elysee for the past year,
TO provide for the requirements of the
executive mansion for "a couple of
weeks.
In the face Of these disclosures the
self sacrifice Of Nine. Carnot in abso-
lutely refusing a pension of $1,000 a
year suggested by the cabinet council
is being universally commented p
The widow Of the murdered president
has taken possession Of the apar'm ,nts
engaged for her on the Rue ST. Honore,
which she will occupy until the Hat
leased at IA A, Avenue d'Alma by the late
president, in anticipation of his retire
ment ut the end of his term. has been
decorated and furnished. 1t is esti-
mated that the real estate of the late
president will yield n revenue of 81, 900
yearly. Outside OF this the widow has
nothing to depend on until the death
of her mother, Nine. Dupont-White,
who has an income of so, 900 per an
mum.

Fine violins are made in this coun-
try, but we don't compete with Ger
man manufacturers in making cheap
ones. There are imported violins that
are sold at wholesale, with strings
complete ready for use, as low as 50
cents each; there are violin bows that
are sold at wholesale as low as 50 cents
a dozen. Instruments of this sort are
sold mostly in the west and south, and
large numbers of them are sold. When
one takes into account the manufactu-
rer's and the importers profit, and the
fact that an import duty is paid also,
1t will be seen that the original cost
of this violin must have been very
small.
