VISITORS IN SENATE
More Numerous Than Senator'S
Minor Bills Passed,

WAsmNGToN, Aug. 27.-The scarcity
of senators in the senate chamber to-
day was more than compensated for by
the immense crowds Of visitors in the
galleries. The diplomatic gallery alone
was vacant, together with the presi-
dents bench in the reserved gallery,
but a solid mass of humanity packed
all other galleries to their utmost ca
pacity. A large number of these were
ladies, the rest were visiting Knights of
PythiaS. There were not more than a
dozen senators present when the chap
lain offered up prayers, and this num-
Der did not Increase beyond seventeen
during the days proceedings.
The Gay OF adjournment having been
set and the imposSbilitv ofeffecting any
ali, senators had quietly slipped away
without waiting for the closing hour.
Wit.-out attempting to do more than
transact some routine morning business
and following prearranged plan, Mr..
CGskrell MO, Dem.) moved lhat the
seSa.e proceed 10 the consideration of
executive business. The motion was
carried, and at 1910 p. m. the galleries
were cleared of the expectant but dis
appointed throngs, the doors were closed
and the remainder of the days business
was transacted i'll secret session.

GOULD INSISTS.
He Wants the Cup or Chance to
Win It,

LONDON. Aug. 27.-Howard Gould
was informed this afternoon of the sub
stance of the dispatches sent by the
Prince of Wales to Caot. Carter. an
nouncing the decision not to race his
yacht in any more of the regattas this
year and expressing the desire to lay
her up for the rest of the year if the
Nigilant did not insist on racing for the
Cape May challenge cup. Mr.. Gould
said: so far as the Cape May cup is
concerned the Vigilant will certainly
insist upon contesting for it. We want
to take that cup home and we mean to
nave try for it. AS l understand the
conditions, the Britannia, as the holder
OF the cup, must defend 1t. She cannot
transfer this privilege to the Satanita
or any one else without consent of the
New York Yacht club, If the Britannia
does not sail against US she must give
up the cup"
In regard to the Immediate future,
MIR. Gould said that he doubted very
much whether he would send the Vigil
liant 10 take part in the west coast re-
gattas, adding that it was scarcely worth
While To do So with the Britannia alb

lean yacht tomorrow But after the
race for the Cape May cup the Vigilant
Will be laid up, in all probability, at
Southampton. The Messrs. Gould do
not anticipate taking her TO the Mediter-
ranean, as it is a long journey there and
she is only eligible to enter three or
four races
Regarding the yachting season of
1875. Mr.. Gould remarked: Il expect

there is a challenge issued for the

satisfied that there is much more sport

than out of any other boat. The twenty

Mr.. Gould Was asked it his boat would
nave center board, to which he re-
piled: ''Of couIse, L suppose So An
American boat must have a center

HOUSE COULD Do NOTHING.
The Point OF No Quorum Was
Raised


WASHINGTON, Aug 27.-The CALLER
les were crowded with visiting Knights
of Pythias and their families when the
house met today, but sthe floor was a
forest of empty chairs. less than fifty
members being present.
Mr., Holman, 1.-The watchdog of the
treasury" asked unanimous consent
for the consideration of bill to pay TO
j. D. Cobb q Co., of Aurora. Ind, $1,000
for barges taken by the government
during the war. 1t was his first request
of the kind in years. but was refused.
Mr.. Richardson Oem, Tenn. offered
"a resolution to print tue tariff bill with
comparisons OF the rates between the
bill as it becomes a law. the bill as il
passed the house, and the present Me-
kinley bill.
Mr.. Wilson pointed out the difficulty
of resolving specific into al valOrem
duties, and said the comparison would
be misleading. He thought that the
comparison should not be simply COM
parison of the rates of taxation. but of
the basis of taxation. Under the Nc
Kinley law. he said. taking the
reports for 1893, duties averaging
rs per cent were levied on $780,
100000 or dutiabie imports: under
the house bill the duties would have
been 30 per cent on S3l. 100000 of duti-
able Imports (the rest being free); under
the senate bill the rate would be 80 per
cent OH 1853. 100000 OF imported goods.
He claimed the senate bill would ln-
create the basis of taxation S63, 900, GEO
over the Mckinley law. and he wanted
this to appear i'll the comparison.
MIR. McMillin (Dem., fenn.i called ate
tention to the fact that $50. 000, 900 of this
increase would be due To Tie tax Oh
sugar.
The point of no quorum was raised,
and willis waiting for quorum TO APP

Wisconsin, was announced. A commit
tee was appointed to attend the funeral,

END OF RECIPROCITY.
Existing Treaties Practically An.
nuIled by the New Law.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-S ection II
of the new tariff law repeats section 8
of the Mckinley act. under which the
reciprocity treaties were drawn, with
the proviso that ''nothing herein con-
tanned shall be held to abr0gate or in
any way affect such reciprocal COM
mercial arrangements as have been
heretofore made and now exist between
the United States and foreign countries.
except here such arrangements are
inconsistent with the provisions Of this
act.''
1t is apprehended that the exception
above noted will be much more general
than the rule. for it is expected that,
Notwithstanding the declaration of the
proviso, the effect of the new tariff law
will be to tumble to the ground the whole
fabric of reciprocity treaties reared
by MIR. Blaine. The new act affects the
rates of duties in every one of the reel
prOcity treaties. and that unfavorably to
the foreign nations party to them. and
already suggestions reached the state
department from the foreign governs
ments Interested to the effect that the
new act will nullify the treaties, for it
cannot be presumed that they will per-
nit the United States to continue the
enjoyment of the excellent privileges in
the matter OF free imports and low
duties after the concessions made by
the United States to secure those priv
ilegeS have been withdrawn. as they are
In a large measure by the new tariff
act. The subject is one which will call
for construction by the treasury de-
partment, but the opinion among dip
lomats is that the treaties are practically
repealed 10y the provisions of the new
tariff law.

REBATES ON ALCOHOL.
The New Law Too Complicated TO
BE Administered,

The New Law Too Complicated TO
BE Administered.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-There seem
to be serious doubts entertained IS to
whether or not treasury officials will be
able to carry into effect the section of
the new tariff bill making alcohol used
in the arts free of internal revenue tax.
Section 81 of the act provides that any
manufacturer finding it necessary to
use alcohol in the arts or In any medi-
cinal GA other like compound may use
the same under regulations to he pre-
scribed by the secretary of the treasury,
and OH satisfying the collector of in
ternal revenue of the district wherein
he resides or carries on business that he
has complied with such regulations and
has used such alcohol therein, and eX-
hibitlng and delivering up the stamps
which show that tax has been placed
thereon. shall be entitled to receive from
the treasury rebate on the tax so paid.
There are approximately 100000 drug
gists in the United States who use
alcohol to some extent in the manu-
facture OF compounds of various kinds,
and this number, it is believed, would
be increased from so 10 100 per cent
under liberal application OF this pro-
vision of the ACT. While the law pro-
vldes that manufacturers may use
alcohol free OF tax under regulations
prescribed by the secretary, no appro-
priation is made to carry the provision
into effect. and it is argued that it would
require small army of revenue agents
to prevent frauds upon the government
and the loss of millions of revenue to it
ftom the operations of inscriptions
persons. Under these circumstances it
Is believed that the secretary will find it
practically impossible to enforce the
law, and will therefore refrain from
issuing any regulations on the subject,
at least until congress, which re-as-
semUleS in December, shall make suf-
ficient appropriations for the purpose.
The suggestion that the secretary might
so frame his regulations as to limit the
Dement'S of the act to a very few manu-.
facturers who could be looked after has
been put aside as unfair to the thou.
