TRUST Is HIT HARD.

BY the vote of Senator Quay the sugar
trust schedule was kept in the tariff bill
II he had not bolted his party the propo-
sition to impose differontial duty OF
one-eghth of one cent a pound upon all
sugar consumed in the United States for
the benefit of the trust would have been
defeated and the sugar schedule would
have been left with simple 40 per cent
advalorem duty upon all kinds of sugar
raw and refined. Senators Coke, George
Hugh, Hill and Irby had voted with the
republicans few minutes before on the
proposition TO make the repeal OF the
bounty law take effect upon the passage
OF the bill instead of on Jan. /, 1895, al
proposed, and showed majority oil
three in favor OF that proposition.

none Of the bills that passed the house

the president declared New Mexico de-

amendment to the bill reported by the

no chance Of loss through its guaranty of

ANTI OPTION ASSURE Is sIiELNED.
The general impression about the sem

which passed the house not long ago,will
not receive any consideration at this
session Of congress in that body. Sena-
tor Washburn of Minnesota, who made
the fight and secured the passage Of the
bill in the senate in the last congress,
says he realizes the long time which has
elapsed before any of the ropriation
bills have been taken up will mean that
all the time Of the senate from now until

impossible to get sufficient time to con-

THE TARIFF BILL FINALLY REPORTED
The revenue bill was reported to the
senate from the committee of the whole
at the close of the session last Friday
afternoon. The finance committee has
carried out its programme thus far with
out any substantial losses. In fact they
have held their forces in line since the
9TH Of May almost without a break
They have not suffered from single ad-
verse vote. Such concessions as have
been obtained were the nsult of private
conferences or personal appeals from the
minority So far as the record goes th'
bill has been carried through the com

effective opposition. The income tax re
mains in the bill. The sugar schedule Il

EATING IN SWEDEN.
The Smoreasbrod, Fladbrod and Other
Features of II Meal.

; , The Smoreasbrod, Fladbrod and other
Features of Meal.
Table methods in Sweden differ from
those in most other countries. An lnstltu-
ton which exists everywhere and precedes
all meals is the so-called ''smorgasbrod.
This is a high table in every restaurant
! room spread with small appctizers, such rs
| shrimp anchovies, cold roast meats. rad
dishes, timed fishes and an abundance of
bread and butter TO this the guest walks
up and helps himself to his satisfaction. at
the same time ordering of waiter what
he desires for his next later course. When
he has finished his standing meal he
takes his seat and is ready for the main
meal. which is very like what is to be
had in other countries. The visitor Will
be impressed with the fresh milk. cream
| and butter which are set on the table IN
| lavish quantities. Il circumstance which
| is easily explained when it is remembered
that Sweden and Denmark provide Great
Britain and some other parts of the world
with Il great part of their dairy products.
| The system of helping yourself also eX-
| tends often to the entire meal, as ut such
places as railway stations where Il halt
is made for dinner. 4 great table ser
with an abundance of most excellent
| viands is placed unguarded at the mercy
of the guest. who, each for himself, walks
up to the soup dish and dips out what
he wishes and takes il away for silent
consumption at the small side tables near
| by. When the soup is finished he casts
| his plate aside, takes II new one and goes
| to the fish salver, and so on. throughout
! the meal When he is done he walks up
to the cashier. reports what he has eaten,
and pays the bill, which is never extrava-
giant.
A feature Of the table in Sweden is the
so-called ''tladbrod," or flat bread which
Il stranger is not apt to like. 1t occurs III
| the form of thick wafer extended t"
| about the circumference of Il bucket top.
| 1t has hole in the middle into which
one might almost poke his head and adopt
the thing as II new mode in collars. 1t ia
| mostly very dark. and is made variously,
usually from wheat or barley, and mixed
often with mashed potatoes and peas:
| In the far North it is sometimes made OF
sroundup bark 1t is very brittle, cracks
under the teeth like nothing else on the
| bill of fare. and tastes at times like coffee.
ut other times no worse than II leftover
! from last Christmas cracker 1t is set
on the table ten or fifteen thicknesses
! high, Il Joy to those who like it and y
pest to those who do not and who would
like to see the space filled up with some
