TO MARTHA'S VINEYARD.
A Delightful Trip Embracing Two
Nights and Day.

The fastest and most magnificent
steamer on the Norwich line between New
York and New London, is the City of Bos-
| ton.
The City Of Boston is coming up
the Providence River Saturday
afternoon, and will lie at Hopkins
wharf, open to the inspection
of all admirers OF crack steam craft until
10 o'clock that evening when she is to
clear this port for Marthas Vineyard,
arrive there very early in the morning,
stay at the island dock all day and leave
on the return trip to Providence that
evening for an outside sail
by moonlight. The hest part Of the little
extra trip by the City OF Boston is that the
captain, and his Providence friends are
going to allow the public to take 1t in IL
tho public cares to and so that no one
need feel too much under obligations
nominal price, one dollar, is to be
charged for the whole trip. Just as an
illustration of how Providence people en-
JOY steam boating by moonlight, and sun
light, and how they like to visit strange

already said they were going. 1t isn't an
excursion or anything of that kind, but
rather a pilgrimage or sort of an ocean
cruise on boat so large that different
parties can distribute themselves around
in different places and imagine that they
are on private yachts, and on the
other hand, when they feel social
they can get together on the
saloon deck and join in the chorus of the
songs that someone is sure to start Just as
soon as the orchestra begins to get in its
work off Kettle Point. They can also eat
together if they want to, or else form
their own lItt' dining parties, for there'll
be enough walters aboard to cater to all
the little personal whims OF that sort.
Those that don't become so attached to
the steamer on the out trip that they hate
to leave her, will go ashore for ell day at
Cottage City, the Mecca OF bicyclists ana
the island of delight. The attractions OF
that island are immense. There 3
boating in all kinds OF small craft, rail
roading on narrow gauge, the afternoon
review of society on the bouevards, miles
and miles OF wheeling over the con-
crete, beautiful drives, delightful walks,
bathing for Willie and swimming for

BIG RECEIPTS.
Treasury Officials Expect to Take in
Enormous Duties in Next 10 Days.
by The Associated Press.


WASHINGTON, August 14.--Treasury Of
hcials anticipate very great increase in
the receipts from internal revenue sources
within the next 10 days, in case the Presi-
dent allows the tarin bill to become law
by withholding his signature.
AT Pekin, Ills, the receipts yesterday
reached $4,000, and in the district
OF Maryland they amounted to
$4,000. Large amounts of whiskey
centers have been re-gauged again. II is
assumed that practically all of 1t will be
withdrawn, IL practicable, before the bill
becomes a law.
During the next 10 days the internal
revenue receipts are expected to reach
II SOC, 600 a day. The customs officials of
the treasury expect also a marked
from now on and particularly during the
next month or SO. Large quantities of
goods now held in the bonded warehouses
at New York, Boston and other large sea-
port cities will be withdrawn as soon
as possible after the bill becomes law,
to meet the demands of the fall trade.
Dry goods and furnishing goods and
notions of all kinds will form q large
item In these Withdrawals. The
reduction of 80 cents per pound in the
duty on cigars is expected to stimulate
trade to some extent in that direction.
The administration of the new act
will remain practically unchanged In
all its details. The administration fea-
lures of the House bill were stricken
out in the Senate, thus leaving the
administrative act of June 10, 1890, in full
force, except that the Senate interjected
a paragraph providing for the licen-
sing OF custom house brokers.
The hat trimmings paragraphs in
this bill are quite satisfactory to the GUS
toms officials, and removes very serious
objection in the bill as it came from the
House. AS presented to the Senate this
feature OF the bill left open, it is said,
wide door through which silk goods could
be brought in as hat trimmings at reduc-
tion from so to 20 per cents. Practically
this same provision is in the act OF 1883.
resulted in the suits for refunds OF
0,000, 900 now pending in the New York
courts. Any Inconsistencies which may
be found in the bill can be cured only by
special acts and it is feared these may not
pass.
The administrative act OF 1890 itself
cures applications of articles at different
rates and other inconsistencies OF that
character, but as to all other matters,
curative acts would be necessary.

The FREE SUGAR BILL.


WAsHtSGToN, Aug. 14-It il not
thought probable to pass the free coal
iron ore and barbed wire bills in the
Senate. As to the free sugar bill
there Is little doubt that In
case a direct vote could be had IL
would be passed. II il should fail OF
being referred to the finance committee
the Republicans should offer a bounty
amendment to II which would carry, u
Mr.. Stewarts vote could he had
but would be defeated by tie vote II the
Nevada populist refused to vote. II is
said by those who are in a position to
know, that the free sugar bill
would be defeated in the Senate ut
such lengch that II would go over until
the next session. IL In believed that the
quorum OF the Senate will melt away in
short time and no important action can
he taken in that body.

NEW YORK, Aug. 14.-Commercial
houses and professional traders in the
stock market last night confessed much
surprise at the materal recovery in prices.
II is expected that higher prices
will be made for the time
being Notwithstanding the un-
favorable crop and railroad situations,
which are ignored, and the belief of
spectators is that the outcome will be
decline ard lower prices for the Grangers
and trunk lines than have yet been re-
ported.
There Is abundant room above present
wheat prices, and but little below. The
smallest yearly fiuctuation was i5Hc. in
1880. The average weekly range between
lowest and highest during the past IS
years IL nearly SIC.
Good rains are reported in Iowa, Nebras-
ka and South Dakota. There have been
no rains OF importance in Kansas, and re-
ports from that State are very bad.
There is some talk OF giving Atchison
tockholders more liberal terms as regards
their voting powers.
London is buoyant and higher.
The tariff question being out of the way,
merchants and manufacturers will
soon adjust themselves to the
new condition. The strength
of the market is due to tariff legislation,
but after the effects OF this are spent the
tariff will be supplanted as a speculative
factor by the crops.
Transactions at the Stock Exchange
were the largest recently recorded, foot
ing up 256, 900 shares.

Ground Broken at Last for the New
Church.
Last evening between 10 and II O'Clock
the young men of the Ruggles Street
Wesley League made up their minds to
steal march on the folks who intended to
break the ground for the new church this
morning by going TO the church lot on
the corner OF Smith and Ruggles at that
hour, and cutting the first sod, and pay
ing $40 for the privilege OF doing so.
After digging it up they set
up pole IL feet long with a note nailed
to the top saying: "Ground broken at
last" AT the bottom they piled lot OF
soil on which they placed the first sod
and nailed note saying "This is the first
sod, sio for cutting it," and underneath
that "s5 for second, }" signed w. L., the ini-
tials of Wesley League. This was a
surprise to the people who as
sembled early to witness the breaking OF
the ground this morning and nonplussed
the anxious ones. The diggers are at
work now, cutting the ground for the
foundation and the first loads OF rock
were hauled this morning.
The pastor, Rev. Mr.. Mason, has an au-
tograph album which he proposes TO put
in the corner stone when II Is laid on Oct.

lege OF putting In their autograph for the
