HINGES ON SUGAR.
That Alone Blocks Agreement
on the Tariff Bill.
Senate Refuses All Propositions Not
Containing DifferentiaI Rate.
The President Responsible II Some Tarin
Bill Is Not Passed.

WASHINGTON, Aug. lit was thought
when the Democratic members of the con-
ference committee on the tariff bill ad-
journed, this afternoon, that something
definite would have been sgreed upon, but
such hopes were doomed to disappointment.
When tie conferees met again, this after
noon, number of tentative propositions
were advanced by the House, but none of
them was such that they could be accepted
by the Senate. 1t is known that the sugar
schedule alone prevents an agreement.
At the conference, today, the
House members offered several
suggestions, but the Senate con-
ferees notified their colleagues that no
schedule could be agreed upon that did not
contain the differenhal on refined sugar.
After more or less discussion the confer
ence adjourned until tomorrow morning in
the hope that the difficult problem might be
solved at that time.
Representative Bailey, tonight, said that
the House was anxious to pass some bill
and he did not believe that the 35 members
would hold out against the sugar schedule.
Representative Hendrix of New York
said that the Seuate bill was infinitely bet
ter than the Mckinley bill or the Mills bill
and would not be bad measure on which
to 60 to the country. At the conclusion of
the afternoon conference Mr.. Jones said
there did not appear to be any change in
the situation. He confessed that he saw
but little hope in the future unless the
House was ready to yield on the three
items that were now in dispute.
The Senate conferees were feeling blue
over the situation, tonight, and one senator
not member Of the conference, but who
is in touch with all that is done there
stated that he would not be surprised il
another disagreeing report were made with
10 the next two or three days. When il
was suggested that this might kill the bill
the reply was: 1.-The President is response

country, and no one else" This sentiment
was also echoed by leading conservative

IN THE HOUSE.
Democrats Show Their Usual Sense Of Justice
in Unseating Funston Of Kansas.

WASHINGTON, Aug. LIN the House, to-
day, the contested election case of Moore
vs.. Funston, from the Second Kansas dis
trict, was called up at II 80. The major
ity of the committee reported in favor Of
unseating Funston (Rep.) and giving the
seat to Moore (Dem). The case of Con-
testant Moore was presented by Jones
Dem.) of Virginia. Funston's plurality
over Moore, on the face of the returns, was
81 votes. This result, Jones claimed
through the majority or the committee, was
obtained by violations of the law, intimida-
ton of the negro vote and errors in regis
tration,
Mccall (Rep of Massachusetts, who
made the report for the minority of the
committee, reviewed the evidence and law
in the case, meeting point by point the
claims of the contestant. The minority
found Funston's plurality larger even than
the face of the returns showed. The con-
testee (Funston) was allowed an hour in
which to present his defense of the charges
and claims made by Moore. Funston main
tanned that the evidence showed that he had
been fairly elected. After several other
members had spoken, a vote was taken
on the resolution reported by the minority
of the committee declaring II. l.. Moore
(Dem.) was not elected to Congress
from the Second District of Kansas. The
resolution was defeated: Yeas, 80; nays,
I2G; answering present, 5. The vote was
generally along political lines, the Demo
Gratis voting nay and the Republicans aye.
The follow Jog Democrats voted with the
Republicans Barnes, Hare, Hall, Psynter,
Pendleton, Richards, Richie and Russell.
On the resolution declaring Funston en-.
titled to seat the vote was: Yeas, 81 I;
nays, 127; answering present, IL; present
and not answering, Is. The resolution
was lost. The House then adjourned.

Strongly Represented ai the State Committee
Meeting Last Evening.

There was a large and representative
gathering of the Republicans present at the
Augusta house, last evening, to confer with
the members of the State committee in ref
erence to the party outlook. 1t was evil
dent that no one present was disturbed by
any doubts as to what the verdict Of Maine
would be at the fall elections. The reports
from all sections of the State were very en-
couraging. 1t is evident that lots of Maine
Democrats have become thoroughly dis
gusted with their party and are prepared to
cut loose from it forever.

sented on the committee. Chairman Man
ley presided very gracefully over the meet
ing and called upon various gentlemen, re
presenting different sections of the State
to express their views. 1t was harmon
ious gathering fully indicating that the Re
publcans of Maine were never in bette

time.

alarm is felt at Taku, as the people there
believe that any day may bring several
Japanese war vessels and bombardment.
Steam launches of the Chinese customs
service are scouting along the coast to as
certain whether or not the Japanese are ap-
preaching. Their officers report that sew
eral Japanese cruisers have been seen in
the Gulf of Pechili. The ability Of the
Taku forts to Withstand a bombardment is
doubted. The fort works were not built
to resist the fire of modern guns.
