WAsHrSGroy CRY. Aug. 20.-For fifteen
or twenty minutes today the business Of
the senate was suspended while the SER
geant-at-srns was sent in search of
quorum. The senate was eighteen short
Of a voting quorum. only twenty five SEN
ators having voted on a non-politieai mo-
ton, thus showing that congress is slowly
disintegrating.
Speaker Crisp returned today from Old
Point Comfort, Va. He says adjournment
could be bad by Wednesday II the presi-
dent should act on the tariff tomorrow.
The only legislative matter pending on
which action is hoped for Is the alcohol
bill nov before the senate, but this APP
peared TO be affected by the Murphy reso-
luton postponing ali tariff legislation.
Members of the ways and means COM
mIttee say they do not think the president
will les the tariff bill become law until
the last moment. in order that customs
officers may have all the information pos
sibie. This would not be until midnight
Monday next
Representative Tarsney will make no
effort TO push his free sliver-lead ore bill,
beyond getting il on the house calendar.
He reported 1t from committee today.
The Republicans say there will be no
more business of importance transacted at
this session, except, perhaps, the passage
Of the bill correcting the alcohol schedule.
Today Senator Lindsay was ready to make
n speech defending the action of the SEN
ate finance committee and the Democratic
senators who supported il. 1t is also un-
derstood that Senator Allison was also
ready TO make speech of some length on
the present status of tariff legislation. 1t
is possible that both of these speeches will
be made by the courtesy of the senate,
although the Republicans said today that
no speeches would be made. Some of she
Democrats assert, however, that If any at
tempt Is made TO prevent speeches on the
Democratic side quorum will be recalled
under duress by the sergeant alarms. On
the Republican side il is claimed that the
tariff debate as well as tariff legislation is
at close.
Chairman Wilson, of the WAYS and
means committee, has returned To the city
from Long Branch. His early return was
connected with rumors that President
Cleveland would come to Washington
City at once. and that some action on the
tariff bill was to be exrected. Wilson de-
MES these statements, but says he looks
for the presidents return on Thursday.
Finding so many senators away from the
city, he does not look for any further
legislation this session.

IN THE SENATE.
The Popgun Bills keported-AdJourned
for Lack Of a Ouorm.

WASHINGTON Cry, Aug. 20-In the SEN
ate Harris reported the amended sugar
bill and tho coal iron ore and barbed wire
bills. Allison said the action of the SEN
ate last Saturday on Manderson's amend
ments, when the vote was 2i TO 20, and
the amendment only failed for lack OF a
quorum, should bs recorded as an instruc-
tion TO the committee to report the anne nd
ment favorably. He declared that the
barhcd wire kill did not provide for free
barhed wire at all, as IL placed duty upon
the manufactured article while admitting
the raw material free. He reminded the
senate that the Wilson bill provided for
25 per cent. ad yalorem duty on barbed
wire, bat the senate had reduced il.
Aldrich. another Republican member of
the finance committee, denied that the
substitute sugar biil just reported was by
the unanimous vote of the committee, as
IL had been opposed by all the Republican
members. The house had desired 70 put
barbed wire on the free list TO benefit the
farmer, but In its haste It had done Just
the opposite.
The house bill to provide a national
home for blind and intirm colored people
went over until the next session. The
senate bail 10 qua h the claim OF the United
States against the estate of Leland STAN

If the sugar bill was called up at this ses-
sion he would offer an amendment re-
enaeting the wool schedule of 1880. The
bills placing wool. coal and iron on the
free list were ordered 10 be placed on the
calendar. The senate went into executive
session, but, owing 10 lack Of quorum,
adjourned till Wednesday.
The Porter nomination was taken up In
executive session, but was not passed upon
on account of lack OF quorum, which vas
developed on . call made upon the sug-
gestion Of Bate, who is opposed 20 the con-

British Columbia Sealing Claims.

WAsHNsroN CRY, Aug. 20.-Sir Julian
Pauncefote. the British ambassador, ae-
companied by Sir Charles Tupper. the
Canadian minister of fisheries, called at
the state department and had an inter
view with Secretary Gresham regarding
the claims of the owners Of the British
Columbian vessels seized by the United
States naval aud revenue vessels for seal
ing in Bering sea. The claims will prob
ably be adjusted by a commission, and
Mr.. Tupper's visit to Washington City is
to afford the British ambassador the In
formation necessary for the prosecution of
the investigation. The secretary was at
the senate today urging that before adj
journment some action should be taken
looking to the settlement of this claim.
The general opinion, however, was that il
is too late TO take up the question at this
session.

outrage cases ended IN q farce in Justice
McCoach's court this afternoon. District
Attorney Cochran appeared before the
court aud asked that the cases against the
defendants be dismissed. The district
attorney stated that he made this motion
for the reason thaE the evidence in the
cases had been before the grand jury. who
had failed TO fsnd true bills against any Of

motion. Not one Of the persons from
Denver who had been interesting them
selves in the prosecution was present.
