The Tariff MuddIe.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-The tariff con-
ference appears to have reached very
nearly the point at which either an early
agreement will be reached, or decision
to report disagreement. The senate
conferees apparently have arrived at the
conclusion that there has been already a
sufficient exchange of views upon gen.
eral lines, and the time has come when
a direct issue must be raised. 1t is
stated that a sugar schedule has been
prepared, which the senate will accept.
The schedule, it is said, still provides a
differential duty on refined sugar, and
in other particulars maintains the pro-
tective features OF the senate schedule,
Representative Bland has introduced
a resolution instructing the committee
on ways and means to report bill plac-
ing all sugars on the free list, and for
raising 800 ,OOO, 900 revenue by an in
come tax. Bland says, concerning the
resolutions: "I have not consulted Mr..
Wilson nor anyone else, but have acted
on my own judgment in submitting this
resolution. Ny purpose is to press it if
there are any indications that the gem
eral tariff bill will fail.''

WOODLAND, Call, Aug S.-At the
opening of the train wrecking case this
morning Justice Fisher apologised for
having called prisoner Worden a vile
name during bis excitement yesterday
evening. He said he would have held
any of the attorneys accountable for
such language as he used. Almost the
entire morning session was consumed by
arguments, quarreling and pickering
among the attorneys, but for the inter-
ference of others, attorney Cook and
Gaddis would have come to blows.
Gaddis openly charched that false testi-
mony had been given for the prosecu-
ton and that the attorneys for the
prosecution countenanced it.

request made by the Japanese govern
ment concerning the protection to be
afforded Japanese interests in Pekin by
the Americans in charge there. The
legation is without official news con-
cerning the reported repulse of Japanese
troops at Asan. Considerable doubt ex-
lists in the minds of officials as to the
exact location of that place.

Pacific railway said in an interview to-
day that sufficient progress had been
made financially in 1891 for putting
through this scheme, had the Japanese
government given it the assistance that
was expected of them. He believes the
present war will extend to other nations
in the far East. and that it will result in
the laying of Pacific cable either to
japan, China or Australia, as the ex-
isting cables pass through SO many for
eign countries where serious complica-
tions are likely to arise at any moment.
The distance from Vancouver to Japan
