WASHINGTON. March 2a.-The esti-
mates Of the amount of revenue which
the tariff bill reported to the senate
will probably yield show that the
total amount will be about 1881 .OO0,-
900. This is reduction of between
sl3,OOO.O 900 and SlI OOO, 900 from the
estimates in the first bin reported
to the committee. The principal re-
duction is made in the internal reve-
nue. part of the bill through the
restoration of the present tax rates on
domestic cigars and cigarettes. which
amounts TO loss of sl0.OJO, 900.
There will also be an apprcc able fall
ing off in the duty on tin plate caused
by changing the duty on that impor-

SIGNS OF DEATH.

The absence of pulse in superficial
artery is not reliable The absence of
pulse may occur i'll shock, collapse,
cholera, etc. Not only the entire ces-
sation, but the continuous cessation of
the heart must be determined, and the
whole chest must be examined, for the
position of the heart, as well as its
sounds, may be abnormal The exam
nation in cases of doubt should be con-
tinued for period of two hours, at in
tervals of ten minutes. Children have
often been restored where there was
apparently no heart action for half an
hour after birth.
1t is said that the marmot, whose
pulse ranges from eighty to ninety per
minute, during Information sinks to
eight or nine per minute.
There may be voluntary suspension
of the hearts action; it is rare, but has
been reported. Auscultation and pal
pitation are the most reliable means of
detecting the absence of life There
are other methods worthy of considera-
ton.
The finger or lobe of the ear, bound
around tightly with a ligature, and the
part beyond the construction WILL if the
person be living, become red, and final
ly the part will assume a blush colour.
At the spot where the ligtaure was
around the part, white ring becomes
visible. In death these changes do not
take place,
When life is extinct for some hours,
cupping and scarifying brings no blood.
During life, if clean, bright needle
be thrust into the muscles, it soon rusts
toxidizes); such is not the case in death.
As a rule, in death the arteries are
pale or yellowish, and empty of blood,
while during life the vessel pulsates
and has the color of the surrounding
tissue.
An ammonia solution, injected under
the skin, produces port-wine conges-
ton in the surrounding parts if life is
present, but not so some hours after
death.
1t is supposed to be impossible to re-
store vitality after the heart has ceased
beating for thirty minutes.
The entire and continuous cessation
of respiration soon proves fatal. Three
and a half minutes is the maximum
length of time the breath can be held.
1t is impossible to commit suicide by
holding ones breath.
