HOUSE TAKES MORE TIME.
viii Debate Two Days on a aBl1Which
was Passed in Half 90 Hour.

Washington, June 1.-The house COM
mittee on rivers and harbors today de-
cided to recommend to the house the
passage of the river and harbor bin
over the presidents veto. There was
no difference of opinion between the
Democrats and Republicans.
The only point of discussion was
whether the report to the house should
be in the nature of a reply to President
Cleveland objections to the bin and
the contract system. and am Affirmative
conclusion was reached There was an
attempt in the committee to have the
bill brought UP in the house today but
the assurance given by Representative
Hermann that the bin would be called
up Tuesday prevented such action. IL
was decided to ask the committee on
rules to allow a day or two to debate
the veto. only half an hours debate
was had on the passage Of the bill i'm

GOING 10 SOUTH AMERICA.
Manufacturers VIII Visit That Coun-
try in the Lnterest Of Trade.

Philadelphia June 1.-Since it was
announced a month ago that the ma
tional association OF manufacturers
had undertaken the organization Of a
party of representative business men
for the purpose Of visiting South Amer
lea this summer, an extraordinary
amount of interest in the project has
been manifested throughout this coun-
try. In South America the projected
visit has aroused the interest of those
countries not concerned in the tour to
such an extent that efforts have been
made to secure changes in the timer
airy or an extension OF trip so as to in
clude several countries in addition to
those first selected for study. There
has been some talk of crossing the An
des to Chile from the Providence of
Mendoza in Argentina and now the
Peruvian government is anxious to have
the party include Peru in its tour.
President Theodore c. Search of the
national association of manufacturers
has just received from the department
of state copy Of q letter from j. A.
Mckenzie United states minister at
Lima conveying very hearty and cor
dial Invitation from the government of
Peru to the party which is now being
formed for the South American trip.
wv lille it win be impossible for our
party to extend its tour. and accept
this invitation" d." said Mr.. Search still
this expression of earnest welcome is
very interesting as signifying the in
in South America and the importance
which is attached to it there Our itin-
cary was made Up weeks ago, and it is
not feasible to extend the route beyond
the points already selected in Argen-
tine Brazil and Uruguay.
'tTheinterest which has manifested in
this trip by business men in every sec
tiOn Of the United States is really re-
markable showing how eager our peo-
PIE are to enlarge their foreign trade
AS far as it has been made up our par
ty includes some of the largest and
best known manufacturers in this
country, and those who have not vet
completed their arrangements fo. Join
ing the party are of equal prominence
in business circles
There is every prospect that the
party viii be a body thoroughly repre-
sentative of the most important man
ufacturing interests in the United
( States. The mere announcement of
this tour has developed an enormous
volume of correspondence showing that
/ business men of the country are keenlv
alive to opportunities for enlargement
! or foreign commerce"

Nashville, Tenn. June 1.-The anni-

have long looked for with such emo
tiOns of pride and with such delightful
anticipations, dawned gloomily. The
sky was Overhung with clouds which

the rain once more began to fall The

SERMONS ON THE CYCLONE.
Chicago Divines Conclude It Was Not
Because St Louis Was Wicked.

Chicago. June THE St. Louis disas-
ter furnished the theme for many Of
the Sunday sermons in Chicago.
Few of the ministers tried to explain
the phenomenon beyond natural
causes. They stood appalled, at the loss
of life but tried to point out lessons OF
hope from the terrible slaughter. 1t
was the general verdict that the de
struction was not q punishment for
Wicl1edness.
DR.. H. L. Thomas. of the Peoples
church suggested that if a punishment
was dealt out in this manner for the
violation of moral laws. there would
not be a large city in the world out Of
danger.
Rev N d Hills of the Central
church. Dr H w. n. 0naa.s Of the Peo-
pies church. Rev. TAeodore Clifton OF
