SUGAR IS THE HARDEST NUT
Tho Senate Was In a Mudd,e Yes.
terday All Day Long and
Had Several Tie
Votes.

WARRINGTON. July 27.-Some senators
are Of the opinion that tho conference OF
the committee will either agrco on re-
port within two or three days after tho cit.
tings begin or decide to report another
disagreement. Tho preponderance OF
opinion is that there will not be
another report Of disagreement. In fact
the democratic conferees assert another
disagreement means the defeat OF the
tariff bill.
The indications all point to tho prob
ability that the sugar schedule again will
be tho principal point Of contention, and
that but for tho differences on this point,
agreement would be reached after very
brief sitting. Tho democratic members
OF tho conference wont through the bill
very carefully during their former
sitting and agreed on q
vast amount Of the items in
II, 90 they will not need
TO consider these points again very fully.
II 10 probable tho republican members Of
the committee will ask for an explanation
Of many changes. and this action would
have the effect Of delaying the conference
report.
Senator Blanchard has an entirely now
sugar proposition to submit to tho confer
ence, but 1t 10 not regarded likely II will
bc agreed to.

PRETTY CLOSE.

The Senate Was Tie Every Time II
Voted Yesterday
WASHINGTON, July Elm the senate to-
day Mt Il :05 o'clock the report OF tho con.
ference OH the tariff bill was called up by
Senator Jones.
Tho pending question was the decision
OF the chair on tho points Of order raised
by Gray and Mills against washburn's
motion to instruct the senate confrerecs
to recede from the eighth.cent difrercn.
tial on sugar above the l6 Dutch stand
ard.
Mandcrson argued against the point Of
order. maintaining with viRor that IL was
competent for the senate to instruct Its
confrcrccs. Manderson described ut length
the methods OF the conference between
tho two houses In parliament and In con.
ercss. drawing o distinction between "a
simple" conference and "full and
free" conference. In the house, hc
declared, Il had never been disputed that
the house could instruct its conferces.
Certainly II could not be contendcd that
tho senate had no power or control over
its conferees. "How could any commit.
tee of the senate be superior and above
the senate which created II? There was
moro involved In this than simple qucs-
ton. In II were involved the rights Of tho
sugar trust which was SO eloqucntly do.
claimed against by Mr.. Villas. Il was
said, inside and outside Of this chamber,
that the trust was so powerful that u
could defeat any bill that did not give It
what 1t wanted" Ho apprchendod this
was true, for no matter how close tho
senate came TO striking at tho differontial
vote was always forthcoming at tho last
moment to save it. Tho ruling In this
point Of order would determine whether
the senate should have tho right to pass
upon this odious diiferential, the striking
out of which meant the defeat Of tho bill.
Mr.. Mandcrson then reviewed tho pre-
cedents bearing OIL tho point OF order,
citing number of cases In the house
where tho conferees had been instructed.
Senator Harris In tho chair sustained
tho point Of order against washburn's
motions.
An appeal was taken and tho vote on
the motion to lay the appeal on tho table
was o tie, 32-32, and the motion was lost.
The negative vote consisted Of % re.
publicans, Hill, (dem.. Allen, Kyle and
PETER, pop. Stewart did not vote.
Those voting in the affirmative were all
democrats. The vote on Washburn's ap-
peal from the decision OF the chair 70.
suited: Yeas 32; nays 80.
The senate having failed to sustain tho
chair the vote required on the motion OF
Washburn to instruct tho conferees to
recede from the eighth difierentiai. Tho
vote resulted: Yeas 30, nays 81. The
motion was not agreed to.
Tho bill goes back to the conference
committee without instructions.

CHICAGO, Dec. 12.-Samuol c. Sceley
the absconding bookkeeper of the National
Shoe and Leather bank of New York, is
safe behind the bars of a cell in Harrison
street police station. The police never
since he was first arrested entertained a
doubt of the identity of the man, but his
calm demeanor and his cool and positive
denials that he was Seeley had begun TO
make them anxious to secure somebody
who could say definitely whether he was
or was not the man wanted
When the officers offered to send for
anybody in this city or elsewhere
Frank J. Dale, the man he claimed to be,
he could not give the name of any person
In any other part of the country who
would identify him as Dale When he
made the declaration he was informed that
the police knew him to be Seeley and there
was no further necessity of talking over
the matter.
After being told this Seeley was taken

IL o'clock he sent word to Inspector Shea
and Lieutenant Haas that he would like
to see them for an interview. Ten min
utes later he confessed he was the man
| they wanted, and stated he was anxious
for them to hurry the arrangements to
take him back to New York,
He was trembling and filled with ner-

asked him what he wanted
"All want to say, gentleman Is that

of my attempting to conceal it any longer.
I am Samuel c. Seeley, and I am the man
wanted in New York"
Nothing more was said until the pris-
oner spoke again and said he was ready to

fcers could arrange it. He said further
that he would make no effort to gain his

not want an attorney but preferred to

When fellow is elected for life he is

We regard the bishop simply as male
man. We honor him for his good works
and esteem him for his piety, but we pro
pose to criticize him just as the secular
press would criticize any officer of govern
ment. We propose to give to Methodism
the fairest and livest paper on the contin-

James D, Smith, chairman of the Amer

view which a represen tative of the Asso-

Dunraven Monday night. Mr.. Smith read
theinterview very carefully, and then said:
- "In the first place we did not hold Dun
raven to the ten months notice We were
willing, if possible, to advance the dates.
Lord Dunraven should have confidence
enough in the committee to know that
they would grant everything that would
not jeopardize the club.
"In any event the receipt for the cup
would have to be signed whether won un.
der the rules of the new deed of gift or ac-
cording to Lord Dunraven's present chal-
lenge, as legally it could not be delivered
without receipt. Besides, no club has
the power to add to or take from any of
the conditions of the deed of gift"
els the committee likely to reconsider
its action2" asked the reporter.
"The actions of any committee is never
cast iron. But do not think this com
mittee is likely to change It's decisions"
However, after a moments thought the
ex-commodore added very emphatically;
"This committee wants a race"
