THE TARIFF BILL.
Leaders On Both sides Want to Make
Progress.

Progress.
WASHINGTON. June 1.-THE leaders on
both sides of the senate chamber have
been comforting with a view to reach
some agreement so that progress will be
made on the tariff.
For several hours Senators Aldrich and
Allison have been comforting with Sena-
tors Harris and Cockreu and each side
held consultations with party friends
Senator Aidrich says that 1t is likely
that an agreement will be reached to
proceed with the schedules Of the bill,
until wool is reached under the five min
ute rule and finish them this week, so
that the wool schedule can be taken up
Monday. This includes the agricultural
schedule which is now under cOnsidera-
ton, spirits, wines and other beverages,
cotton manufactures and fax, hemp and
jute; in all, four schedules covering II
pages of the printed bill.
MIR. Aldrich says that these four sche-
dulles are not so important but that they
may be considered in that manner.
As to the time of taking "a final vote.
he said that no agreement could be had;
nor could he predict when the vote
would come, as the discussion of wool
and the income tax may be quite pro-
longed.
AT 2 o'clock, Mr.. Harris proposed the
agreement in the senate with the modifi-
eaton that senators might speak for ten
minutes. it was discussed by Mr.. HOar
and Mr.. Frye. and while the discussion
was going ON Mr. Quay came in, asked
what was before the senate and objected.
This killed the agreement temporarily
a least.

ST. JOHN FOR CONGRESS-.
PopaIists Talk of Nominating Him in the
Second District.


The fact leaked out today that the
PopuIists have their eye on new and
formidable candidate for congress in the
Second district, in the person of ex-
Governor John p. St. John. They say
that they have assurances from those near
to the ex-governor that he would accept
such a nomination, and the Populists at
the statehouse express the conviction
that St. John would lead either Funston
or Buchan.
A prominent Popu4st who lives in
Olathe, St.John,s town and who is a warm
personal friend of his. said to JOURNAL
reporter this afternoon; ''The name of
Ex-Governor ST. John for congress has
been mentioned freely among the Popu-
lists of my district for several weeks, and
he already has stronger backing than
anybody else for the nomination. Mr..
St John is a Populist although he has
never announced that he was. In his
latest speeches he hasn't left a grease
spot of the Republicans or Democrats,
and the only difference between
him and the rest of US is that his views
on equal suffrage and prohibition are
more pronounced. There isn't a more
brainy man or better public speaker in
Kansas today than Ex-Governor St John,
aud he would be credit to any state in
congress. know what l am talking
about, when l say he will accept the
nomination"

EDITORS FALL OUT.
Editor Driver Has Editor Pope Arrested
For Drawing a Pis.ol.

Editor w. D. Driver of the Topeka
"Blackman," had Editor w. n. Pope of
the Topeka Call" arrested this after
noon charged with drawing a revolver on
him, on Kansas avenue this morning.
The trouble between the rival editors
has existed since the formers paper was
started, but the unpieasantness was made
more aggravating by an incident at the
copeland last night Pope was talking
to delegate when Driver came up and
also talked 10 the delegate. In the
course of the conversation Driver said
that his was the only colOred paper en-
dOrsed by the Republican county central
committee Pope and Driver met near
the JOURNAL office this mornin and had
a few hot words, and separated. About
noon they again met near the Central
n rational bank, and it is there that Pope
is said to have drawn a revolver and
ordered Driver to get out of town.

UNCLE SAM'S MONEY.
Used BY Stanford Eudow His Phil
anthrOPic College.


anthrOpic College.
WASHINGTON, June THE action of
the attorney general in claiming 49,
100000 from the estate of the late
Leland Stanford occupied the attention
of the senate until the tariff bill was
taken up today. The question arose
upon a resolution introduced by
Mr.. Hoar, instructing the commit
tee on judiciary to pass upon the
equity of the claim land whether it
should not be set at rest Following the
introduction of the resolution, Mr.. Hoar
eulogized Mr.. Stanford. and praised the
objects to which he had devoted his
wealth.
Mr.. Blackburn said the course pursued
by him was unprecedented in the history
of congress The real question, said Mr.
Black burn, was whether the estate which
was devised by MIR. Stanford for educa-
tional purposes, had not been wrongfuily
diverted from the United States. The
resolution was displaced by the tariff bill.

The Report That Forty Lives Were Los
I'm n Wreck.


The Report That Forty Lives Were Lost
in Wreck.
VANCOUVER, June News is just
coming that cloud burstup the Frazer
river has resulted in the total dest-uc-
ton of a Raymond excursion train Forty
lives are said to have been lost. The
train, consisting of palace cars, was from
Boston, Mass. and had been guaranteed
passage to the mountain division and was
passing ahead when the wrecked road
bed, occasioned by the cloud burst, was
met
The sleeping cars were piled in an
awful mass. The loss of life cannot yet
be ascertained, though it is placed at
about forty. 1t is impossible TO secure
the names of any of the victims, as no
one, not even the porters of the cars, is
said to have escaped alive.
Not True.
NEW YORK, June THE following
dispatch has just been received from q.
r. HOsmer. msnager of the Canadian Pa
citic road at Montreal:
There is absolutely no truth in the re-
port of an accident to the Raymond
Whitcomb excursion party. The excnr-
sion train referred to is at Field, b. G..
and there has been no accident to any
passenger train on the road by which
loss of life occurred.
I Mr. Hosmer also forwards the follow
ing dispatch:
"FIELD, B. c., June Z.
ssThe Raymond and WhitcOmb party
reported as having been lost in the
mountains are comfortably located at the
Canadian Pacific hotel here. They are
waiting for the repair of the railway

cnterprising capitalists who are at the
head of the new monster aggregations

incidentally we referred TO Johnny

tribute to his genius as a humorist and
a moralist. But it seems that Mr.. Low
