How "porcarts, received Their Name

Originally "dogcarts" were used by
parties of sportsmen in driving to or
from the hunting field, and there was al
ways O box or empty space under the
back seat, into which the dogs were put
when being taken to the field. Probably
this was done in order that they might
be quite fresh to begin the chase, ana
from it these conveyances came to %
called "dogcarts."

deferred during tho past year, and
merchandise stocks have been so re.

WASHINGTON Ann. i!

WASHINGTON. Aug. 8
IN FTER the meeting of the cabinet
IAN today four mem bers announced
IN each to different person that
Ii u an agreement had been reached
by the senate and house eonferees on
the tariff bill. The basis Of agreement
was not disclosed. but one Of the most
distinguished members of the cabinet
said to United Press reporter: You
can announce that the president will
sign the tariff bill within ten days"
Unitsd Press bulletins announcing a
tariff adjustment spread rapidly
through the city and caused much ex-
citsment, No one Of the cabinet offi-
GERS who spoke Of the settlement would
divulge the terms, but the inference
was strongly conveyed that the senate
bill with not very material conces-
sions 10 tue basis OF the agree
msnt The paramount reasons
that seem to have brought about
an adjustment was stated to be the abb
soluts necessity for the cessation Of the
period Of uncertainty in order that gov
ernmsnt finance might recupsrate, gold
exports stop, and the country be given
an opportunity to resume business
which has almost come to standstill
because Of the long drawn out delay.
WHAT THE HOUSE ACCEPTS.
From other sources 1t is learned that
the sugar schedule that will be agreed
to and which has been accepted by the
house conferrees is as follows:
Forty per cent ad valorem on all
raw sugar and the same amount on all
refined sugar, the duty to be collected,
however, on the basis Of the saccharine
strength. In addition to this there is
to be diffsrential to the refiner of
one. fifth of q cent pound and dis
eliminating duty against those coun-
triss that pay an export bounty on re
fined sugar equivalint to the bounty
paid. 1t Is understood that the govern.
inent will also regulate in some way
the prices Of foreign sugars 30 as to
prevent any attempt to juggls with the
quotations.
SUGAR MAKERS ARE SOUR.
1t Is said tonight that the Louis
lana senator's and Messrs. Allen
and Kyle. the latter representing the
beet sugar industry, will not accept
the proposed schedule. If this be true.
it is not apparent how the Democrats
expect to pass the bill. There is no
provision in the schedule for the
bounty for 1894 and the Louisiana sen.
ators have declared that unless this
bounty is put in the bill they cannot
support it. 1t is probable that by to-
morrow night the situation will have
crystalized into something tangible and
that the outcome will be known with
some degree Of detiuiteness.

JAPs STORM SHAN YONG
WASHINGTON, Aug. ga caplegram
was received at the Japanese legation
this evening, saying that on July 20 a
portion OF the Japanese troops sta
TONED at Seoul made an advance upon
the Chinese position at Shan Yong,
which contained a larger number Of
soldiers than in the Japanese body, and
after a fight which lasted several
hours. the Chinese were routed and
driven from their stronghold. Many
prisoners and amunitions Of war were
captured, and after the victory, on the
morning Of July 80, the Japanese
troops proceeded to march to Gasan.
The legation has not yet received any
news OF fight at the latter place, and
believes, in view Of what has been re-
ceivsd about the battle at Shan Yoing,
that the reports of the Chinese victory
at Asian or Yashan have been con.
fused with q battle which took place
at Gasan. The legation officers here
say that the Chinese would have to 90
the same distance as the japanese to
telegraph the result of such a battle,
and they wish to again deny that a
victory has been achieved by the
former, as news of it would have been
received here.
The legation this afternoon received
detailed dispatch from Japan con-
frming the accounts by the United
Press OF the sinking Of the British
transport Kow Sning, aud reiteratiug
the assertion that the fight was begun
by the firing Of torpedo from the
Chinese warship Chin Yusu upon the
Japanese cruiser Nsuiwa Kan.
