DISCUSSING THE TARIFF.
Several Schedules May Be Modified
by the Committee.

WASHINGTON. March 10.-The Senate
Committee on Finance met this morning
to consider the tariff bill presented by The
Democratic majority. They examined the
details Of the bill and discussed the salient
features. The proceedings were entirely
amicable and no points on which the COM
mittee was expected to divide were dis
covered. It looks as If 1t would be COM
paratively easy to arrive as an understand
ing at the time which the bill will remain
in committee. Aldrich, after the co mmit-
tee adjourned. said they will begin the
real work On Monday morning. and he
thought IL possible IL could be concluded
next week. The Repu blIcans will try to
secure some changes. and If successful will
probably attempt more. They are hopeful
that Mcpherson will join them In an at
tempt to modify several schedules. If he
does this the bill will be amended as far as
be is willing to Cooperate with them.

WHEAT OF THE WORLD
There Was a Perceptible Short
age Last Year.
Interesting Statistics on the Grain
Crop in the Middle and
Western States.

WASHINGTON, March 10.-Statistcal re-
turns of the Depar tment of Agriculture
for March consist principally of estimates
of the distribution of wheat and corn and
the amounts remaining in farmers hands,
the proportion of merchan table corn and
the average prices of both merchantable
and understandable. The indicated stock
of wheat in farmers hands is ia. 900
bushels, or 2SS per cent of the volume of
the crop of 1898 This is nearly 21,0O0, coo
bushels less than the estimate for March
l of last wear and nearly 100000 less
than the average for the past eight years.
The amount remaining in farmers hands
in eleven of the principal wheat growing
States is about 73000,000 bushels, or 63.S
per cent of the amount in producers
hands in the country at large. The aver
age weight OF the crop of 1898, per meas
ured bushel, is calculated at little over
3s1. 100000 commercial bushels. against
300. 000, 900 measured bushels as heretofore
reported.
The corn IN producers hands, estimated,
aggregates $4,000. 900 bushels or 1914 per
cent of the crop of 1893. The proportion
is less than any year in the past five, eX-
cept in 1891. The aggregate of corn in
farmers hands in Ohio, Indiana. Hi
nois, Iowa. Missouri, Kansas and Ne
braska is Gil per cent Of that in farmers
hands in the entire country, being &c.,
006. 600 bushels.
The official and commercial estimate of
the worlds wheat crop for 1893 makes it
80 100000 bushels less than last year.
Final estimates will probably still further
reduce the total for 1898. as the preliminary
estimates of Russia and Germany are
greatly reduced by final estimates.

MURDERED BY INDIANS.
A CHASTITY Discovery Near the Me-
Vada Line.

CARSON, New, March 10.-On Wednes-
day night or Thursday morning Mrs.
Eggleston. aged &c. was horribly murdered
at her home in Antelope Valley, half a
mile from Colevilie. in Mono County, Cal.
Thursday afternoon lady called to visit
Mrs. Eggleston. After knocking and re-
ceiving no answer she walked in and found
the lady had been murdered.
She alarmed the neighbors and the Cor
oner was summoned. but did not arrive un-
til twenty-four hours later. He found the
body of the murdered woman lying over
the edge of a woodbox with her head
stuffed into fye-pouDd lard bucket. Her
skull had been crushed in and there were
over a dozen gashes on the head, neck and
face. Thereon was spattered with blood
and presented horrible spectacle.
a bottle half filed with whisky was
found on the table and as Indians had been
seen round the place ii is thought they
came into the house and were given some
food, and after getting hold of the whisky
became drunk and committed the deed.
Nothing was stolen from the house, so it
was evidently not done by robbers.
The remains were brought to Carson last
night by II. Nj. Schoolay. a brother of the
deceased. The funeral will be held here
Sunday afternoon.

PAso RoBLEs, March 10.-For horse

horse struck some of the boards over a
well and the animal and his rider went
crashing to the bottom, forty feet below

struck the bottom.

the affair, Immediately went for aid, and
the boy was drawn out of the well and
said he was n3t hurt in the least. A rig

GROWERS CUNNING COURSE.
Will Let the Measure Become a
Law Without Signature.
ANTI-SILVER MEN SATISFIED
While MINIS Are Slowly Grinding on
the Bullion 1t Will Be Good
Campaign naterial.

WASHINGTON. March 10. There is
every indication that the seignIorage bill
will be disposed of by the Senate during
the coming week. The Senators generally
feel that the action OF the Senate late yes
erday afternoon is sufficient reason to be-
lieve there will be no opposition to the bill
sufficient to defeat it. Tie test vote was
On an amendment to adjourn ana in the
interest of fiibustering against the meas
ure. II was voted down by vote of % to
26, showing that the opponents of the bill
were weak to an extent that will u OF even
allow them TO fight the bill with any et-
lectveness.
No considerable opposition to the meas
ure need be expected when the bill is
taken up by the Senate on Monday, and
by Thursday voting on it will begin.
There are some very interesting facts
about the way in which the seigniorage
bill has been brought to its third reading
10 the Senate and placed in a position
where it must be promptly considered and
disposed of. There was a feeling that the
President would veto the bill should it
pass, and its opponents released their zeal,
giving the silver men more latitude in
rushing it along during the preliminary
stages, when considerable might have been
done to delay 1t.
1t is now learned from reliable sources
that the President has, within the past two
days, indicated that he will at least allow
the bill to become law without his sigma
ture. if he does not sign it. There is a
double purpose in this course. II will
eliminate silver from the political contest
during next campaign and allow the tariff
question to absorb all attention. 1t will
be done In this way: There are 2O0,O COO
ounces of silver bullion In the treasury
vaults. The minis coin but 81, 100000 of
bullion Ter month, so that several years
will elapse before the bullion can be coined.
When an attemp. is made to bring the
question of free coinage up in the cam
paign the auti-silver people will argue that
the mints are turning out as many silver
dollars as their capacity will permit.
From this point of view IL will be said
that there is no need for free coinage dis
cusslons until the minis have disposed of
the bullion now in the Governments
hands. 1t is this argument that has
caused the anti-silver men in the Senate to
look with more favor on the seigniorage
bill. Whatever is done the bill NAV be
expected to become law within ten days.
