The Senate Had Another Siege Win the
sheep Yesterday.


WASHINGTON, June l6.-In the senate
to-day bill was passed fixing the price OF
desert lands at sl.25 and authorizing re-
funding payments in access.
The Peffer amendment to the tariff bill
TO transfer all manufactures composed
wholly or in part of wool to the free list
was defeated by a vote of 3 to Is. Allen,
Kyle and PETER cast the affirmative votes.
Hansbrough announced that he would
have voted "aye" had he not been paired.
The senate then plunged into the actual
consideration OF tho woolen schedule.
Vest explained that the finance commit
tee moved to place duty on shoddy and
waste in order 10 exclude them from the
country. One Of the purposes Of the
placing OF wool on the FREQ list was to
discourage the manufacture OF shoddy.
which, under the Mckinley act, had
doubled. Last year It reached s90,0O0,oOo
The republicans had been fighting for
certain notifications Of the wooden sched-
ule and were partially successful. They
succeeded in having the rates on woolen
and worsted yarns valued at over 40 cents
per pound increased from 35 TO 40 per
cent. ad valorem.
Aldrich contended there was nothing
illegitimate in the manufacture of shoddy.
The reduction in the duty on shoddy from
cents per pound to Is per cent. ad
valorem, proposed in this bill, Aldrich
said, would stimulate rather than dis.
courage the production OF shoddy goods.
Quay took the floor and proceeded TO de.
liver the 10th installment Of his speech,
begun April 15. At l:30 o'clock,
after speaking two hours, he announced
he had concluded. A vote was then taken
on the finance committee amendment to
strike out paragraph 2s7 and 1t carried.
Jones' amendment TO the next paragraph
made flocks, shoddy and wool in the form
Of rowing, roping or tops dutiable at IL
per cent, instead Of IS per cent, rs in
the house bill. Aldrich appealed to Jones
to withdraw the amendment on the
ground il would destroy the spinning In,
dustry in the United States, but the
| amendment was agreed 10.
Jones withdrew the finance COMMITTEES
amendment making all woods and worsted
yarns valued at less than 40 cents pei
pound dutiable at 30 per cent. and above
| 40 cents 40 per cent. ad valorem. The
latter was an increase over the house rate
| Of 8 per cent.

LONDON. June i6.-The Sutherland will
case was settled in the high court OF
justice without trial. The action was
brought by tho Dowager Duchess of Suth-
erland to have declared valid the will and
codicils made by her late husband, by tho
terms of which she was to be benefited to
the expnt of about 81 10000.
The present Duke of Sutherland, tho
plaintiffs stepson. opposed the wall. on tho
ground that the dowager duchess had
prejndiced her husbands mind against
his children in order 10 obtain possession
Of his property.
The courtroom was crowded principally
with women. who expected that the trial
would abound with sensations. When tho
court was called TO order the opposing
lawyers announced their belief that
| thoy could after con sultation settle the
case out of court. A conference was &C.
cordingly had, and. after discussing 2
the matter about an hour. the lawyers in
| formed the court that settlement had
been arrived at.
The terms of the settlement were not
stated, except that the will and codicil
propounded by the dowager duchess
would not be opposed and all pleas would
be withdrawn.
II was further stated that the dowager
duchess would retire from the administers
ton Of the estate. and only the duke would
have any further interest in realizing upon
the residuary estate.
IL Is learned that the settlement gives
the dowager duchess fJ0o,0)o, besides an
| Of Thu .lu.hasa 1ia aituafI
fi,200,0Oo.
A later report says that the executors
and trustees OF the dowager duchess will
renounced in favor OF the duke, who comes
into possession of the residue of tue es-
tate, amounting to 81, 10000.
The Prince Of Wales. who was within

suit Of the settlement.

DAVID HAS SENSE.
An English Statesman Who Secs some
Hope for silver.

LONDON, June l6.-Sir David NJ. Bar
bour, formerly finance minister for India,
delivered lecture tonight on the cur
rency question. He said he believed the
complete and permanent exclusion of
silver from the monetary standards Of the
world was absolutely impossible. II il
could be obtained il would cause one OF
the greatest disasters that ever beiell
humanity.
He saw no satisfactory remedy for the
financial depression except in a general
adoption of double standard legal ten
der. He thought tho government would
be justified In trying TO establish a gold
standard in India as last resort, but it
would neither close the controversy nor
give monetary peace to the world.
