WASHINGTON. Feb. 26. 1~S96.-Before
Mr.. Cartern took the floor to speak on
his resolution to reeommit the Tariff bill
to the Committee on Finance without in
structions, Senator Lindsay (Dem., Ky)
offered an amendment instructing the COM
mittee. when it reported the bill back, to
DO so with a aprovision striking off the duty
of forty per cent. on sugars and the ad-
ditional o~ne-eighth Of one cent. per
pound on refined sugars. This amend
ment practically places all ugars ON the
free list.
Mr.. Allen Pop.. Neb.0 offered a sub
stitete for the pending Cuban resolution.
1t authorizes and requests the President
to issue a proclamation recognizing the
independence Of the Republic Of Cuba.
He asked that the resolution lie on the
table.
Mr.. Allen referred to the vote yester-
day on taking up the tariff bill and the
statements made by Messrs. Morrill, (Rep.,
Vt.) and others that the tariff bill was
dead, and stated that. while he did not
believe in the policy set forth in that bill.

it and would couple, with it an amend

will swallow your measure of taxation
(the House tariff bil). which is nauseat-
ing, which is unjust, if you give 70 the
people of the country more sound money
with which to pay the Increased taxa
ton"
He sent to the clerks desk. and had
read an extract from one of Mr.. Nc
Kinley's speeches: and said that he did so
for the purpose of showing that the chief
apostle Of protection in this ccuntry con
demned Mr.. Cleveland in 1883 for the
demonstration of silver. for the purpose
of showing that the Republican party
outside of Congress, claims one thing be-
fore the people. and that the Republican
party in Congress claims and votes fer
an entirely different thing, for the purpose
of showing the absolute good faith of
the Populist party.
He said that the Populist votes. added
the Senate. would carry the House Tariff
bill by a majority of FIVE; and the Popu-
list Senators would give their votes for
it without. the dotting of an i or the
crossing of a t, if the Republican Sena-
tors would vote for the addition to it
of a free coinage substitute. He intro
duced and sent to the clerks desk. a
bill in that form.

WATER BOARD ALARMED
Hoboken Officials and the Land
Company at Logger
heads.

1t looks as if the Hoboken Water Com
missioners and the Hoboken Land ana
Improvement Company were going to
clash. The Commissioners met last night
and received a preliminary report from
the committee recently appointed to make
arrangements for a new water supply,
because the contract between the city
and the Hackensack Water Company is
near its expiration.
The committee received information
that the Land and Improvement Com
pany sometime ago secretly connected
its property along the water front, from
the northern end of the city to the south
ern end with private water mains and
had tapped the mains of the Hackensack
Water Company in Weehawken to secure
their own supply.
Whel the Commissioners heard OF the
colnpaDyS actions they came to the con-
clusie'l that it was a scheme of the COM
parry to nave a private supply of water
ana entirely ignore the city in case il re-
fused to renew its contract with the
iiackensack Water Company, which it
IS ,Well-known is associated with the Ho-
Doken Land and Improvement Company.
The Commissioners became indignant
last night and decided to thwart any
city out of q cent of revenue. For ,hat
reason the report submitted by the COM
mIltee was unanimously endorsed. Tbs
feature of the report was the clause re
guessing the Board to pass a resolution
asking the Senator and Assemblynten
from their district to introduce a bill in
the Legislature prohibiting any water
company except the regularly authorized
company 81 the city from supplying any
water through private mains to privase
c@stizens or corporations within tie city
limits.
A communication was received from the
land company asking for permission tt

property for fire purposes and use fol

were disposed of and the Board ad.

OWNED BY ENGLAND.
Salvation Army WIFI Naa Desert the
British Flag.

NEW YORK. Feb. &c. 1S9s.-Colonel
William Eadie. one Of the leaders of the
Salvation Army in this country, an
ounce positively this morning that all
danger Of a secession oy the supporters
Of former commander Ballington Booth
were now past. All the brigadiers of the
army, who, during the controversy be-
tween the two factions, had been waver-
ing, were now ready to support General
William Booth Of London, against Mr..
and Mrs. Booth. The last of the briga-
diers to reach this decision, Colonel Eadie
said, was B~rigadier Fielding. Of Chicago.
During the trouble Brigadier Fielding
was one of BaIIington Booths most ar
dent supporters. He had a long talk with
Colonel Eadie last night, in which all
the facts Of Ballington Booths case were
gone over carefully. At the conclusion
Of the talk Brigadier Fielding stated that
he would renal in the army and support
General Booth.
One explanation offered by Commander
Booths friends for the change is thai he
did all in his power to prevent further
trouble and expressed himself as unwill-
ing to organize a new evangelical move
ment.

WASHINGTON, February %, 1S96.-Mr.
Dinsmore, of Arkansas. reported to the
House today the views of the minority
members of the Foreign Affairs Com
mittee On the resolutions censuring AM
bassador Bayard. The report states that
the minority respectfully dissent from
the views of the majority and submit
that the resolutions ought not to pass.
Continuing. the report says:
I'm their fthe minority's) opinion there
is nothing contained in either of the
speeches mentioned that calls for or
J~ustifles any censure by Congress. The
proposed action is unwarranted and un-
lrecedented. Representatives of the
United States in foreign countries are
properly and exclusively, as to the reg
uiation of propriety or discreteness of
their conduct, under the direction and
control OF the executive department Of
the government, and any interference by
Congress in this respect can only have
the effect OF detracting from the dignity
and usefulness of our foreign service"

of Kentucky; Mr.. Tucker, of Virginia;
Mr.. Money, of Mississippi, and Mr.. Dins-
more, of A~rkansas-all Democrats.
