Comes Between Secretary Carlisle and

WASHINGTON, June 3O.--The senate
agreed to the finance committee amend
nent abrogating the reciprocity treaties,
and but little remained of the tariff bill TO
he considered in committee of the whole.
The bill will pass the senate not latter
than next Tuesday. 1t will reach the
house by Thursday and he Immediately
referred to the ways and means commit
tee. The Democrats OF the committee
will spend day and night in comparing
the senate and Wilson bills All senate
amendments not objectionable will be ac-
cepted. 1t is believed that by hard work
the why's and means committee can report
to the house in four days.
The Time of Debate.
The report will recommend concurrence
in all the senate amendments not in con-
fict with the house theory of revenue re-
form. These will be accepted All senate
amendments widely departing from the
Wilson bill be non concurred in. The
time of debate may be cut down to
three hours, rs the Democrats of
the rules committee hold that
all questions of difference between
the two houses must be settled in confer
ence; therefore, it would be useless
waste OF time to consume three days in a
debate which would not and could not ad-
vance the final passage of the bill in the
least. The house committee on rules will
bring in n closure order limiting debate.

The Gold Question Causes Strained Rela.
tions Between Them.
WASHINGTON, June 30-The relations
between the New York bankers and Sec
retary Carlisle are said TO be strained on
the gold question. The banks have fur
nished over 5000, ,09O Of gold to meet the
foreign demand and it was supposed they
stood ready to supply at least Sl2, ,000,0
The report comes that the bankers are
disposed to cut short the agreement be-
cause the secretary has not co-operated
with them as they expected him to do
The bankers are pleased with the presi-
dents public commendation of their
course, but are somewhat disappointed
over what they regard as failure on the
part of the secretary of the treasury to
enter more actively into the spirit OF the
situation.
In view of the probais refusal of the
New York bankers to give up their gold,
the administration Is said to be arranging
to ship from banks in the interior of the
country, supplying currency for crop pur-
poses and paying all express charges.
Some millions OF dollars il gold WILL it is
stated, be given by the interior banks

ARE STEEL ROADS PRACTICABLE?
Doubts as to Their Utility to the Farmer
Difficulties of the Plan.

Doubts as to Their Utility to the Farmer.
Difficulties of the Plan.
An experiment in road reform is t,
be tried in Ohio which will be watched
with interest by the entire country. The
electric roads in the cities of two coun-
ties are to be extended into the sur
rounding country and the tracks so con-
structed that horse vehicles can run on
them. The farmers of those counties
will thus have the benefit of steel roads
instead of dirt roads. The theoretical
gain Will be enormous, for, according TO
European writer who has investigated
the subject, horse can draw just ten
times rs much over Il steel track as
over All ordinary road. The ordinary
European road, be it remembered, is con-
siderably better than the ordinary Amer
lean road. Whether the actual gain will
be as great as this, or indeed anything
at all, is another question.
II the electric roads are employed to
carry freight as well as passengers, and
that seems to be part of the PLAN the
road will be moderately we'll filled with
electric cars. The horse will be contin-
ually compelled to turn ont for the more
swiftly moving cars and will not get
much lencfit from the track Then, too,
an electric road which is blocked with
horse vehicles will be less advantageous
to the promoters, and if the enterprise
should prove successful in the vicinity
OF large towns it would hardly be prac.
ticablc in purely rural districts, for it
could not be profitable to extend electric
roads 90 or 100 miles into the country
These are some of the difficulties i'll the
way of the success of the proposed plan
In spite of them it may succeed, and ii
will mt least be advantageous to the rest
of the country to have Ohio experiment
with the steel roads in rural districts. =
