The Republican Senators cemented
their allegiance to the trusts on Satur-
day by uniting with the Gormanites in
adopting resolution declaring the
enactment of further legislation on con-
tested matters at this session impracti-
cable. This is understood as sealing the
fate of the House bills putting sugar,
coal and iron ore on the free list. The
vote further shows, as had been demon
strated by the German Republican
alliance on the two preceding days, that
the Republicans Of the Senate are trust
Republicans, just as they were four
years ago and have been ever since.

Mr. Speaker, in conclusion, | only
want to say that so far as | am con-
cerned, | was willing 70 continue the
contest for better bill SO long as there
was any hope of obtaining ii. But when
the conferees on the part of the House,
in whom we have the utmost conf
dence, who are familiar with all the
facts, tell US that in their Judgment we
must take this bill or be remlttcd to the
penalties of the Mckinley bill, do not
hesitate a moment | take the Senate
amendments.
If there is a sugar trust in this
country which is dominating legisla.
ton, tine Republican party created it.
And although this bill does not destroy
that trust, as we wish it did, it takes
away more than one-half of the
protection accorded to that trust. If
there is a coal combine, the legislation
OF the Republican party built it up, and
although we do not make coal free in
this bill we reduce the duty from rs
cents to 40 cents. If there is a steel and
iron combine the same remark applies.
Going through these schedules, whilst
they are not all we wish, they are-and
we want the country to understand it
the hest we can now get. The moment
we get this we intend to move forward.
We do not intend there shall be any
backward step in tariff reform. We
believe that the adjournment of this
Congress without the passage Of some
tariff reform bill would be blow for
tariff reform from which it would not
recover for years to come.-Speaker

/ shall not attempt, as / said at the
outset, to explain the merits or to dwell
upon the dement's Of the six hundred
and odd amendments which this House
is about, Of necessity, to concur in. Per-
haps | could not do justice as yet to the
merits of the amendments. My attention
has necessarily been so constantly and
so steadily directed to their dement's
that it would require some experience
to learn what the merits are. But, what.
ever the measure of shortcoming of this
bill in its present form-whateve be its
dement's in mere schedules-this | do
Mckinley bill. This do know, that in
part of it it does afford some relief to the
taxpayers Of this country, and does clip
the wings Of the gigantic monopolies
that are now expressing them and
blocking legislation.
Take even those portions of the bill
over which this contest between the two
Houses has been waged. Take iron ore
anu coal, upon winch we have con-
fronted, and to certain extent success
fully confronted, the great railroad
syndicates of the country; yet we have
reduced them nearly so per cent below
the Mckinley bill. Take the sugar
schedule, over which the greatest of all
the contests between the two Houses
has been waged. Vicious as it may be,
burdensome to the people as it
may be, favorable to the trust as
it may be, it is less vicious, less
favorable to the trust, less burden
some to the people than is the Mckinley
law under which this trust has grown
so great as to overshadow with its power
the American people. Congressman

The Philadelphia Ledger prints San
authoritative explanation" furnished
by Monsignor Joseph Schroeder of the
Catholic University Of Washington of
the two letters sent by Apostolic Dele
gate Satolh in answer TO requests from
certain Catholic societies that the rcgu-
lations Of the Bishop Of Columbus with
reference to said societies be set aside or
modified, Professor Schroeder declares
tnat false color has been given to these
letters; that they were not deliverauces
aimed at all propriotors or frequcuters
OF saloons, or declarations against the
use of spirituous beverages generally;
that the apostolic delegate did not pro-
mulgate fundamental declaration con.
corning the manufacture, sale or use Of
spirituous liquors, temperance, total
abstinence or prohibition. All that
these letters contained, or were de-
signed to contain, was refusal to pro-
nounce null and void regulation of
the Bishop Of Columbus promulgated
for his diocese alone. They had no APP.
plication to other dioceses, and, as Pro
fessor Schroeder points out, under
church law could have no such appIica-
ton, and any other construction would
be distortion Of Monsignor Satolli's
words.

Down in New Orleans one of the city
councilmen is on trial for accepting a
bride and the evidence against him is
conclusive, but there is fear that he will
escape conviction through the rulings of
the court or fixed" jury, or both, and
the Daily States devotes most of its
editorial space to warning both judge
and jury that there must be no mistrial.
If the administration of justice in that
municipality is as open to suspicion as
these editorials imply it would indicate
that the lesson of the popular uprising
at the Malta lynchings of a few years
ago is already being forgotten. Aud If
the city is dominated by such q ring of
corruptionists as the boodler on trial,
the situation Is certainly one calling for
drastic remedies. The States says of
this ring;
Its methods are all corrupt. II pretends
to be Democratic. but il is neither Demo-
cratic nor Republican nor Populistic. 1t is
q band of thieves. 1t is organized to plum
der the taxpayers of the city. II has its
heelers, its toughs, its bullieS. its perjurers.
its ballot-box suffers and its false counters.
All these are organized with the strictest
discipline to control the patronage Of this
great city and prey upon the taxpayers.
This infamous ring must be smashed or
we shall soon see a day when civil methods
will be suspended and society rise in its
terrible might in defence of its dearest iii
terests. If this man is convicted, that will
pc the beginning of the end. Ii. OH the
contrary, through the prostitution of the
jury, there be an ae1uittal or mistrial.
the ring will score a triumph, corruption
will take on new courage and new life, and
finally the day will come when there will
be all uprising, and-well we know what
that means. All these responsibilities rest
to-day upon the heads of the twelve men
now sitting in the jury box TO determine
the fate of this scoundrel and blackmaiIer,
who has already been proved TO their per-
feet satisfaction to be guilty.

HOBoKEN WILL ENTER.
Hts Cricket Club Will Jofn the Metro.
polifan League.

The annual general meeting of the Metro
politan District Cricket League will be held
this evening, when officers will be elected
and active work commenced for the cam
paign of 1894.
An effort will be made tonight to limit the
first section of the league to five or six clubs,
the Staten Island G.. C. and New Jersey A.
C. being in favor of five clubs. As at pres
ent constituted, the section comprises the
New Jersey A. c., Staten Island c. c.,
Brooklyn, Paterson, Manhattan and Morris
Park Clubs. The Victorias made them
selves eligible for a place by defeating the
Newark Club, but it is understood
that they desire to remain in the
second section. A strong effort will be
made by the Staten Island A. G.. for a place.
In this case the first section will consist of
seven clubs, the same as last year, as none of
the organizations can be retired without
cause. If the Staten Island c. c. n New
Jersey A. C. obtain sufficient following to
limit the section to six clubs, the Staten
Island A. C. will be left out.
The clubs which will be available for the
second sectson are the Victoria. New York,
Harlem, Kings County, St. George and st.
Georges A. G. The South Brooklyn ami
Newark clubs, it is understood, will not enter
this year, but a new applicant will appear
in the Hoboken c.. c., which will probably
make the sixth team.

BOWLING BREAKS.
How the Battle toes ON for League
HOnOrs.

HOnOrs.
The Spheroid team has an unbroken record
of victories in the New Jersey Bowling As
ISOLATION tournament on the alleys of the
Assembly Rooms, Hoboken. They have
bowled six games and won all. The Jolly
and Hour teams follow with 4 won and 2
lost. and the Nonpareil, Pioneer, Acme and
Valencia teams are punched in third place,
each with 3 won and l lost. The Nonpareil
is the only Jersey City Club which seems to
have a chance, and its bowlers are confident.
The clubs have not reached the holnestretch,
and many changes are possible.
In the North Hudson tournament five
teams are in first place:-Hamilton Wheel
men, Hudson, Union, Owl and Thistle.
Each has won two and lost nine. It is only
at the start and next week the aspect will be
different.
The fight in the Wheelmen's League seems
to be between the Elizabeth A. G. and the
Brooklyn Bicycle Club. They are even OF
games won, but the latter has a lead in
games lost as it has lost only one while the
Jersey club has lost two.
The America Clubs team of Newark has
made a fine start for the first honors in tine
final tourney of the A A.B.U. They have
won three games and lost none The New
Jersey A.C., Salamander and New York
teams follow with 3 won and / lost.
Three New Jersey teams lead in the Ath-
letic League. Montclair is first with 10 vic
tories and 9 defeats. Roseyille is next with
II won and II defeats, and North enc has
won 16 and lost u. IT looks like Montclair.
The J.C.A.C. team has won II and lost II.

RECORD OF BOWLING LEAGUES.

The second week in the championship
tournament, now in progress at the Jersey
City Athletic Club, closed Saturday night.
Many changes in position were mad during
the week, Scudder dropping from first place
to sixth, w. R.. Starrett from second to
fourth and Newkirk from third to eighth.
Corderer Jumped from sixth place to first,
Watson from fourteenth to second and Wad-
leigh from fourth to third. As most of the
high rollers will meet, the coming week will
be a hot one and many more changes are
looked for. 1t Is rumored that two of the
contestants will not finish their games, in
which event all games played by them, ac-
cording to tie rules, must be thrown out.
This will naturally affect the scores, New
kirk and Watson will lose three games by it
and Meyer gains three, Wadleigh gains one.
Lockwood, having to leave town today. was
anxious to complete his schedule before leav-
ing. which accounts for his low average.
The record to date is as follows:
Corderer won 25, lost 10. per cent ia.
Watson won Is, lost IL, per cent 700.
Wadleigh won 81, lost II, per cent .6S7.
