/" SOUPS COME"
Bitter Rivalry Between the Large
and Small Dealers.

"Scup has GOMEZ and soup has brought
about little feeling amcng the fisher
men who bring IL up the river and sell
from the wharf below Dixon's on South
Water street, who say that three or four
OF the big wholesalers, are trying TO
crowd the little fellows out OF the market.
Whether that is so or not, competition
has waxed so warmly that this morning
the ''little fellows" like jerry Potts and
"Bob" Taylor, were Offering TO give Hcup
away. Mr.. Potts, the Oldest fisherman
in the city had seven barrels OF soup
standing on the wharf which he could
not sell because the wholesalers have
glutted the marketand cut.the price down
40 q per barrel.
Not to be outdone Perry sold one man
cart load for 10 cents, although tho
freight is % cents sugar barrel up the
river, Mr.. Potts having his fish come up
on steamer.
He offered to sell the seven barrels for
90 cents each.
Captain "Bob". brought boat load of
fresh soup and offered to let her GO at 10
cents bushel. lie says he hns boon
around here 2s years and IL ne stays 2s
more they cannot drive him out.
On the other hand, the large dealers
complain that the fishermen are cutting
under to ruin their trade.
Captain Potts tinds another fault. Not
only are Massachusetts anc Connecticut
firms gearing at the mouth of the Provi-
dence river, but many 1iverton, Seacon-
net and Newport fishermen are in danger
CT running the bay fishing by taking
everything without regard TO size. Soup
ought TO be screened, they say, but It
isn't. This robbing the bay of the little
fish pre- events larger fish by and by, of
course. and these little fish are not worth
a cent pound, and cannot keep over
night.

SENATE AND HOUSE AGREE.
Conference reports Agreed TO, and the
End Is Now in sight.


WASHINGTON, juno 10--rhe senate yes
terday agreed to final conference reports
on the naval and Indian appropriation
bills, leaving only the sundry civil and the
District of Columbia conference reports
outstanding A night session had been
agreed to in anticipation of delays and OPP
position to the naval and Indian confer
ence reports, but they went through so
speedily that the night session was aban-
doned
The resolution for an inquiry into the
circumstances of the award of the statue
of General William I. Sherman occasioned
an animated debate. Mr. Wolcott, of Cali
fornia, criticizing the award on the ground
that it was an injustice to the Society of
American Sculptors. Senators Allison,
Hawley and Mills defended the award.
The resolution was finally defeated.
The bill to amonG the law respecting
punishment for contempt of court was
discussed by Mr.. Hill, of New York, and
DIR. Allen, of Nebraska, but a final vote
was not reached. The measure is the re-
suit of the agitation over the imprison-
ment of Eugene " Debs and others for
contempt.
An effort to pass one of the pension bills
recently vetoed by the president failed
through the absence of quorum.
The house gave its final approval to con-
| ference reports on two of the four appro-
priation bills which We're in issue-the
naval and Indian bills A vote taken on
one of the senate public building amend
ments to the sundry civil bill (Savannah)
| just prior to adjournment indicates that
the opposition to these amendments in the
house is waning, and that the house will
on the next vote agree to them. Those
amendments and the electric lighting and

| Columbia bill stand between congress and
the final adjournment. 1t was the opinion
of the house leaders this morning that an
adjustment would be effected and n final
adjournment reached today or tomorrow
at the latest Most of the day in the house
was devoted to the consideration of the
