Victory for the Bishon.

LINCOLN, Neb., Feb. s. In the trial of
Bishop Bonacum. of this Catholic
diocese, for libeling Father Corbett, the
prosecution placed Thomas Morgan,
editor of the Palmyra Gazette, on the
stand, and attempted to prove he was
the agent of the bishop in publishing
the libel. The bishop had written
Morgan ordering him to notify the
Catholics of the parish that Father Cor
Dett had been suspended. Instead of
doing so by word of mouth. as the bis
hops letter indicated, Morgan had the
letter printed and distributed. The de-
fense objected to thetestimony, and the
court sustained the objection. This is
considered victory far the bishop.

SILVER REPUBLICANS
How Will They Stand on the Tariff
Bill ?

WASHINGTON. Feb. S.-The possible
attitude of the silver Republicans with
reference to the tariff bill has been the
theme of considerable talk about the
senate since the Wilson bill reached
that body. Inquiry develops the fact
that they will, wIthoutexception. oppose
the bill. This they will do for two rea-
sons. They are protectionists in prin-
ciple. and some of them think that if
the tariff could be allowed to remain as
at present. it would be in the interest of
silver. They argue that il the tariff is
changed and the hard times continue,
many will be disposed to find in this
change the cause OF depression. whereas,
ii the tariff is allowed tn remain as it is,
and the times do not improve, it will at
once become apparent that the tariff had
not caused the dullness of trade, and
people may be led to believe it was due
to the scarcity of money. While. how
ever, the silver Republican senators will
oppose the bill. will vote against it. and
will make special efforts to defeat the
clauses bearing upon the special inter-
ests of their respective states, it is prob
able that some of them will not aid their
Republican colleagues IN securing 'deisy
upon .the, e,pasSage20t.th bill. -

Der of the subcommittee of the Demo-

said today that the tariff bill would be
reported to the majority members of the

reason to believe that the subcommit-

on sugar. The probabilities are that it
has been determined that there shall be
an extension of the bonded period of
whisky and that there will be an IN
crease perhaps of ten cents a gallon on
whisky, over the house bill. Coupled
with this is the statement that mnsky

Immense herds of caribou range In
