FRIDAY EVENING, AUG. IA, 1896.

The REV. DR.. ROBERT S. MACAR-
THUR, of the Calvary Baptist Church
of New York, says:
"Wheu the first gun was fired from
Sumter, the unity, and so the perpetu'-
tv of the nation was at stake. Now
the Chicago platform threatens the
honor of the nation, and so imperlls lis
perpetuity."
The perpetuity of the nation must
rest upon very frail basis, if it can be
imperiled by a change in the color of its
currency metal. If the shoemaker
should stick to his last, for stronger
reason, preacher should stick to his
Bible, and let politics alone.

washington, February 13.-The
friends of the tariff bill met an unex-
pected repulse this afternoon when. bv
the decisive vote Of q yeas to % nays.
the Senate defeated the motion Of Mr..
Morrill,, chairman Of the Finance Com
mittee, to take up the tariff bill The
negative vote which defeated the mo-
ton was given by Democrats, Popu-
lists, and four Republicans, viz: Tel
Ter, Mantle, Dubois and Carter. The
affirmative vote was entirely Repub-
lican, but its total of q is less than
half the aggregate Republican strength.
Mr.. Morrilrs motion has been tntAsi-
pated for some days, but it was not
pressed pending consideration Of the
urgent deficiency appropriation bin.
This measure was disposed of at four
o'clock to-day, and the struggle to ad-
vance other measures began at once.
Mr.. Morrill, was hurriedly summoned
from the Finance Committee room to
submit his motion. In the meantime
Mr.. Call had secured the enforcement
of an agreement entered into some
days ago that the Cuban question
should be taken up. Mr.. Morrill, was
not deferred by the agreement, how
ever, and pressed his motion to take
up the tariff. There was a hurried as
sembling of Senators who remained at
the Capitol, but this was considerably
short of the full vote. The result OF
the vote left the Cuban resolution as
unfinished business, although these
have yielded temporarily to the mill
tary academy and other appropriation
bills
The urgent deficiency bill was pass
ed to-day. It carries about $4,000. 900.
a considerable increase over the bill
passed in the House.
a resolution was adopted directing
the Pacific Railroad Committee to mako
full inquiry into the status Of the Pa
Gift railroads. In this connection. Mr.
Allen criticised the manner of hearing
the interested railroad officials and not
the disinterested patrons of the road.
Later in the day Mr.. Pettigrew made I
