The New York ConfirmatIons.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2s.-The five New
York appointments which were confirmed
by the senate were sent in on Dec. 12, and
the fact that they have been held up so
long without action has occasioned some
comment. Ali five of the nominations
were in the hands of the committee on
commerce, of which Senator Murphy is a
member, and they were naturally referred
to him because of the fact that he repre-
sented the state from which they were
made. He is understood to have held the
nominations before making a report I'M
til he and Mr.. Hill could make investi-
cations concerning the appointees. Hav-
ing made these. they agreed that the nomi-
nations should go to the senate, where they
were acted upon. The same explanation
applies In the eaas Of Mr. PoucheFs who

Dem ocratIc Tariff Caucus.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2S.-The Democrats
of the senate spent large part of the day
in caucus The proceedings were not mark
ed by many interesting Incidents and the
discussion was more of the character of ar
gument in favor of the interests which the
various senators particularly represented
Senators Vest, Brice and White made
speeches. In order that all senators might
have an opportunity to say something the
roll was called by states, and nearly every
man in the senate had an opportunity to
express his views. Some of the states asked
to be passed over, Senator White of Cali
fornia, the Alabama senators and Senator
German reserving themselves for today,
when it is expected that they will close the
general debate.
The programme then is that the bill
shall be gone over by schedules and the
finance committee instructed by sugges-
ton or votes of the caucus as to what
changes shall be made. That was the UNI
Outstanding when the caucus adjourned,
though it may be upset and some new pro-
gramme sprung after the closing speeches.
The general tone of the caucus was
against trusts, and several statements in
dictated that if any of the present duties or
proposed duties favored the trusts the COM
mittee would be instructed to make altera-
tions. This was only an expressed senti-
ment by some of the senators, which
seemed to meet the appreciation of those
who listened. This sentiment indicated a
disposition to allow a revenue duty ON
sugar, but nothing in the way Of discrimi-
nation or protection for the refined article.
There was talk for coal and iron ore and
for lead by various senators, but very little
could be shown as to how the senators
viewed these matters.
During the day the senators from New
York, New Jersey and Delaware took occa-
sion to oppose the income tax feature of
the bill, Senator Hill declaring that it was
very unpopular in his state. His state
ments were sustained by Senators McPher-
son, Smith and Gray. The impression
seemed to be, however, that there would
not even he a demand for a vote on the
proposition to strike out the income tax.
Senator Mills made one of the concilia-
tory speeches of the day. He said that the
bill was not wholly satisfactory to him,
but that he would vote for any measure
that would reduce the rates Of taxation be-
low the Mckinley law. Senators from the
states having representatives on the finance
committee did not have much to say, but
what was said was mostly in favor of the
bill. The fight for coal was led by the West
Virginia senator's, and Senator Camden of
that state also urged a duty upon lumber.

An English company has perfected a
new method for the extraction OF metals
from ores that is said to be simplicity it..
self and to work like a charm. The ore
is put through 40-nesh screen and is
then put into vat, containing a secret
preparation, and there boiled for from
two to four hours, or according to the
baseness Of the ore. After the boiling
process is completed the liqnor Is drawn
off into settling tanks. The precipitant
used works on one metal alone and
therefore the gold, silver, lead, copper,
iron, and every other form OF metal can
be thrown down separately. The other
