WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The four
hours allowed daily for general debate
on the tariff bill in the senate were
filed up today by the last part
of Senator PETERS four day
speech. and by a three and a
half hours speech by Senator Mitch.
ell, Oregon. Mr. MitGhell's attitude
towards the bill was very clearly de.
fined. In his opinion it was destitute
of single good point. 1t breathed the
spirit of free trade with all its blight
ing consequences, and it mercilsssly
assailed capital and labor alike. 1t
was neither free trade nor protection,
and yet it was both.
After thetariff bill was laid aside
the senate got itself into a parliament

which motion there was no quorum

make quorum. Senator Hill
New York, made the parliamentary
point and that action of his was in

to pay tribute to the Reed ruling in
the house. After an interchange of
thru'ts and parties the contest was
closed by a motion to proceed to exec

Progress in Business Is Still obstruoted

Progress in Business Is Still obstruoted
by Many Uncertainties.
New YORK, April 13 R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow
will say:
Business improvements meet many
obstacles, and is scarcely as distinct as
it has been in recent weeks. Strikes
have checked the improvement in build.
ing and some other trades. and scarcity
of coke has caused closing of some iron
works, while strike of all bituminous
iron works is ordered and may prove
serious. More favorable crop reports
than were expected, which Justify
larger hope for next fall. have arrested
the upward tendency in prices of pro-
ducts
The renewal OF gold exports occa-
sions some disquietuds. But the grad
ual exhaustion Of goods in the hands
Of dealers makes the consumption Of
the people more distinctly felt, and
apparently larger, and this demand
increased with the gain in number of
hands at work. 1t cannot be said that
uncertainty as to the future has mater.
tally diminished. but there is an evil
IDENTIFY growing impression that there
will be no important legislation on the
currency or on the tariff; the impres
sion whether erroneous or not, infu-
ences the action Of many.
The proposal to remove the tax on
issues of state banks is not by many
thought likely to prevail. On the
whole. though progress is still oh
structed by uncertainties, it has not
been arrested

As the days of the Methodist Wyo-
ming conference, now in session at the
Elm Park church, pass by there is a
large increase in attendance and a
growing interest eVinced in the pro-
ceedings. as attested by the general
representation in the audience. Yes
terday was no exception to the rule
there were in the afternoon more out
siders in the auditorium than on any
previous afternoon, and the same fact
is true of the evening session.
What lends added general interest to
the proceedings is the gradual doing
away o. the details and hum-drum
business which usually characterizes
the opening days Of conference, and
the settling down to the consideration
of more important matters.
The morning session witnessed what
is of most moment to theological stu
dents and those who have passed the
first stages of student life, namely, the
advancement of clerical students to
higher grades of study or TO full mem
bership of the conference. Seven of
the latter were admitted. and Bishop
Hurst's accompanying remarks are
given in THE TRIBUNE's account Of the
morning session.
The afternoon was essentially the
ladies' afternoon, in that the audito-
rum of the church was devoted to
their use for exercises in behalf of the
Woman's Home Missionary society.
