THE TARIFF BILL.
General Debate Expected to Close
Next Monday Week.

There is apparently no disposition on the
part of the republicans to prolong the gen
eral debate on the tariff bill. The general
expectation is that by unanimous agree
ment the general debate will be closed one
week from Monday. The debate which will
be protracted Indefinitely is that on the par
agraphs, and the republicans are eager TO
reach that The republicans are undouot-
edly very hopeful of defeating the BILL but
they do not expect to do this by filibuster-
ing. If they cannot defeat it on a vote, then
the bill will pass. 1t would be impossible to
keep up a filibuster to the end of Congress.
The Main Republican Attack.
The main attack by the republicans will
be through the income tax and the sugar
schedule. They will endeavor to prevent
the sugar tax from going into the bill, and
to prevent the income tax coming out.
They think that the absence of a duty on
sugar would compel the two Louisiana
Senators to vote against the bill, and that
the presence of the income tax would COM
pei Hill, Murphy and perhaps Brice and
Smith to vote against the bill. They de-
sire therefore to keep the bill in the most
unpopular form, and think that they will
be able to do so. The fate of the measure.
they think, will be known within sixty
days, and possibly in a very short time,
though even If assured that the bill will be

Democratic Hopes.
The democrats are basing their hopes.
which are not oversanguine. upon two
things; the necessity to the party that
some tariff legislation shall be had and
the influence of the administration earnest
ly exercised in favor of the measure now
pending In both these reliances is in
cluded the assumption of lack of courage
on the part of the democrats who are
opposing the bill. Hill is getting an i'm

TO PROTECT THE SEALS.
Orders Issued to the Fleet in Bering
Sen.


Orders have been issued transferring the
revenue steamers Corwin, Bear and Rush
from the treasury service to the naval serv-
ice, and they will be added TO the naval
patrol fleet in Bering sea, under command
of Commander Clark of the U. S. s. Mohi-
can. These vessels have been fitted out at
San Francisco in anticipation of this serv-
ice and will be ready to start for the rem
devious in the Arctic ocean at very short
notice. They are in command of men thor
oughly familiar with the sealing grounds
and the seals and may be confidently ex-
pected to give a good account of them
selves in the detection and apprehension of
poachers, whether American, Canadian or
of any other nationality.
The sailing orders and instructions Of
the commanders of the ships on the seal
patrol have been completed. The general
tenor of the instructions il is understood,
requires the naval officers 10 seize any ves-
sci found engaged In sealing north of the
35th degree of latitude. and east uf the
1SOth meridian, after May l and before
August 1. The presence on board, OF seal
ing apparatus will be regarded as sufficient
proof of the character of the vessel to
warrant her seizure. The seized vessels.
If carrying the United States flag, will be
sent to the nearest United States port and
delivered to the judicial officers there TO
await trial If a British vessel. it will be
turned over to the British naval officers,
who will see that she is returned to Vic
toria. The sailing orders will be kept Sc
cret so as not to defeat the purpose of so
disposing the vessels of the fleet as to make
1t probable that no sealing craft can ven
ture far into the sealing waters without a
reasonable certainty of capture Some of
the naval vessels will lie in wait in the
neighborhood of Sand Point and at the
mouth of the passes between the Aleutian
Islands, through which the sealers would
pass from the North Pacific into Bering
sea. A contingent of the feet will cruise
off the coast of British Columbia and south
ern Alaska, following up the seal herds as
they swim northward. The fact that a
vessel, United States or British has cleared
from port before the promulgat ton of the
laws will not suffice to save her from seiz-
ure. Her cruise will be cut short and she
will be returned to port to be dealt with
by the courts.

Arrangements for the opening of bids for

and probably Commissioners Lyon and
Painter. Several clerks in the Indian bu-
reau will also be detailed. The aggregate
amount involved in the contracts to be
awarded at both places is about s., 500 600.

THE SHEA FAMILY.
Mr.. Bfrney Makes Report on This
Interesting Combination


There is soon to be revival of the affair
involving the pardon of John Shea for SELL
ing liquor and the subsequent efforts of the
Sheas TO have Police Sergeant John Daley
indicted for alleged perjury. 1t now ap-
pears that President Cleveland and Attorney
General Olney are interested in the matter
and a report of some kind will probably be
made, perhaps in the near future. Now
that the Sheas have failed to have the po-
lice sergeant indicted they are directing
their efforts in the direction of the district
attorneys Office. and Mr. Birney has already
been called upon to make two reports.
Col. Christy, acting as counsel for the
Sheas wrote a letter, ii is said, directly To
the President, making charges against Dis
trict Attorney Birney for his alleged refusal
to have the Sheas go before the grand jury
end make an effort to indict the police ser
geant.
Later on Attorney General Olney referred
the matter to Mr.. Birney for a report This
report was soon sent, but 1t did not seem to
be sd atisfa ctory, either to the President or
Mr. Olney and Mr.. Birney was directed to
make a further report.
This he did, and in the supplemental re-
port he embodied copy of the Police Court
records relating to the Shea family, show
ing that there were on the dockets records
of 156 cases against members of the family.
This record covers a period of nearly
twenty years.
1t IS thought in some quarters that the
present proceedings were instituted in order
to start an investigation concerning the
conduct of District Attorney Birney,
with view of giving an excuse for his re-
moval to make room for a democratic sue
cessor, as. Mr. Birney is a republican, hav-
ing been appointed during President Harri-
sons administration.
A Star reporter called on Mr.. Birney this
afternoon and asked him about the charges
but he said he preferred not to discuss the
matter.
