TARIFF BILL INCOME.
Estimate of the Government Receipts Uno
der the New Democratic
Measure.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 10.~The-
Senate committee Oh finance met to-
day for the purpose Of considering the
tariff bill as presented by the Demo
cratic majority, and decided to order
printed statements and adjourned I'M
til Monday morning. Those state
ments show that the Senate
bill will produce from tariff
and internal revenue sources 1888, -
100000, if the importations prove
to be of the same quantity and
value as those Of the last fs-
cal year. This amount, added to the.
receipts from the Post-office De-
partment and from miscellaneous
sources amounting to S1O5, 100000, viii
bring the government revenue up to,
S493, 100000. Under the Senate bill
the customs receipts, it is estimated,
will amount to $165,0O0,0OO, COM
pared to $124OOO,0O as shown by
the Wilson bill, and $193, 100000 under
the Mckinley law, and those from the
internal revenue portion of the bill to
1929, 100000 as compared to $4,000, 900
received last year from this source.
This increase is found largely in three
items-the income tax, spirits and
cigars-the income tax being estimated
at $50, 100000, spirits at $50, 900, 900, and
cigars at S.. 600. 000

Judge Jenkins exceeded his authority.

ROME SHAKEN.

Attempt Believed to Have Been Made to
Blow Up the Chamber of Deputies.
ROME. March 8.-A terrible explosion,
said to be the work of Anarchists, oc-
Cured here at o'clock this evening.
The explosion took place on the Piazza
di Mo2te Citorio, near which stands
the Chamber Of Deputies. A sitting Of
the chamber had just been con-
Guided and it is believed that the
bomb or Internal machine was exploded
almost in front Of the Chamber Of Dep
uties, but the police being in complete
possession Of the Piazza di Monte
Citorio full particulars are unobtain-
explosion shattered all the windows,
in its neiShborhood and at least
two people were wounded. A deafen-
ing report was heard Immediately after
the explosion and attracted large
crowds of people to the spot, filing all
the streets leading to the Piazza di
Monte Citorio. The police immedi-
ately after the explosion swarmed to the
spot in large numbers and, 1t is said,
succeeded in making several Important
arrests. Rome this evening is IN a state,
of great excitement and all sorts Of ru-
mors are in circulation, among them be-
ing the report that an attempt was
made to blow up the Chamber
Of Deputies. 1t is also said
that the police obtained valuable
information from one of the men taken
into custody and that the authorities
are in possession of evidence which
would seem to point to a widespread
conspiracy to cause explosions in Rome.

OFFICERS AND MEN KILLED.
British Forces in India Meet with COntin'
uad Disastrous R8DulSAS.


CALCUTTA, March 9.-Dispatches re-
ceived here from the neighborhood of
the scene of the operation of the
columns engaged in Furnishing the Abor
tribesmen announces serious losses
sustained by the British. Anadditional
detachment Of 100 men left Sadyah yes
terday to meet the British expedition
commanded by Capt. Maxwell, which
has for some time past been following
up the retreating tribesmen. Accord
ing to native reports, Capt. Maxwell has
met with such determined resistance
that he has not only been I'M
able to reach Damrosch, the
town he had for some time been
endeavoring to capture, but has been
so hardly pressed by the Abors, that,
losing a number Of men In killed and
wounded, he has been compelled to re-
treat after destroying the fortified
camps which he had occupied during
the forward march of the expedition.
Another dispatch received here from
Gowhatty, the chief town of Assam, an
nounces a still more serious disaster for
the British arms. It appears de-
tached party, composed of thirty rifles
and four British officers, had been
operating as an escort to a train
on It's way to Bordax with pro-
visions and ammunition for the garri-
son for that town. The detachment
encountered no resistance until it was
far from its base of operations, and then
the tribesmen began to gather ahead of
it and on its TANKS, keeping up CALLING
fire which eventually brought the de-
tachment to standstill. For two days
the little detachment kept up contin-
uous fight day and night with the tribes
men, but eventually the little band of
thirty soldiers, surrounded by thou
sands of tribesmen, was wiped out.
The entire Abor expedition is in a
most critical situation and in addition to
the troops hurried forward from Sad
yah, reinforcements are being sent with
all possible haste to the front in
the hope of rescuing the Maxwell
column. The strength of the col
umn commanded by Capt. Maxwell
is not known, but on January 3, 600
men were dispatched against the Abor
tribesmen on the Assam frontier. an
attack having been made few days
previously upon party Of British mil
Itary police. of whom seven were killed.

TAKES THE OATH OF OFFICE.
The Louisiana Ex-senator Becomes a ST.
Dremo Court Associate JuStlCe

ppem9 Court Associate JuStlC9
WASHINGTON, d. c., March 12.-The
induction into office Of the new associate
justice, ex-senator White, of Louisiana,
attracted a large attendance to the
supreme court room to-day, as the
ceremony always does. There has been
an unusually large number of oppor-
tunities to witness it in the last few
years. Not for many years have
there been SO many va ancies
and consequent induction of superiors
to seats on the bench in so short
period as in the last and present adj
ministratiOns. Justices Brewer, Brown,
ShlraS and Jackson have all taken their
seats since President Cleveland former
term of Office. The ceremony of in
ductiOn Of Justice White was very
simple but impressive.
Justice White had taken advantage OF
the slight delay in taking his seat after
his appointment in providing himself
with his own robe of office, and did not
have to borrow robe as most Of his
associates have done. AS the hour of
noon approached there was no standing
room to be had in the courtroom, and
the corridor outside was filled with the
of distinguished men were in the court
room. The seats to the left of the bench
were reserved for the ladies Of the
supreme court and their guests.
Among those who occupied them
were Miss White, sister OF
the new Justice; Mrs. Fuller, Mrs.
Field, Mrs. Harlan, Mrs. Shiras, Mrs,
Brewer, Mrs Carlisle, Mrs. BisseIl, Miss
Strong, Mrs. Prouty and large number
of others. Senator Villas, between
whom and Senator White cordial in
timacy has existed, was a spectator, as
were also Senators White, of California;
Stewart, Lindsay, Mitchell, of Oregon,
and quite a number of members of the
House.
The ceremony of installation was soon
over. The court flied into the room
and took their places, all being present
but Justice Jackson, who is still de-
tanned in the South by illness. The new
justice had previously been sworn in
by the chief justice in the clerks office.
When the court had been seated and
opened with the usual announcemed,
Chief Justice Fuller announced that
Justice White was present and ready
to take the oath of office. The can
didate was seated just behind Clerk
Mckinney, who thereupon arose
and read the commission signed
by the President. Justice White
then arose and read the oath of office
deliberatly and with clearness and dis
tinctness, every one in the court room
standing. The quiet in the court room
was then broken by the rustic of gar
ments as everyone was re-seated, and
Justice White passed around behind
the bench to the left hand where
Justice Shiras, his neighbor on the
bench, shook hands with him.
