Vote to BE Taken in the Senate Tues
day Buffers ID claration.
Washington, May 29.-The senate
reached an agreement to-day to take
a final vote on the bill to prohibit the
issue of bonds on Tuesday next before
adjournment, Mr.. Hill reserving the
right to move to postpone the vote.
The bills repeating the law relating to
rebates on alcohol used in the arts and
amending the law concerning the dis
filling of brandy from fruits were
passed. The latter authorized the ex-
emption of distillers of brandy made
from fruits from the provisions re-
lating to the manufacture of spirits,
except as to the tax thereon.
Butler, in a speech, declared that the
gold element was about to execute a
skillful stroke of politics by allowing
the Chicago convention to be controll-
ed by silver. in order to weigh down
the cause with the evils of the demo-
cratic party, which had become a
stencil in the nostrils of the Amer
lean people" He appealed to the sill
yer men not to be deceived by this
piece of politics. In answer to a query
from Mr.. Gear as to what methods out
side of the ballot could be adopted to
correct financial legislation, Mr. But
Ter declared that the time might come
when an outraged people might swing
some men from a limb.
Adjourned until Monday.

TO-DAY'S EXERCISES.
Memorial Progrs ANNE The Sports BUSH
ness US renhrd.

The programme for Memorial day, as
announced, will be carried out to-day.
Business generally VIII be suspended
all day. In the afternoon the parade
and exercises OF the day in honor of
the hero dead will be held.
Anaconda is one of the very few
towns in the land that has held the
day sacred to the soldiers. Almost all
other cities to-day will have athletic
sports, ball games, races or amuse-
ments of like character. This city,
however, with patriotism which has
received the highest commentator of
the G. "A. r. and their friends, has
postponed such events to other dates.
While many will doubtless take ad-
vantage of the days holiday for sports
and recreation, yet with due regard
for those who hold sacred memories for
the day, the pleasure seekers will en-
Joy their time as individuals.
The march to the cemetery will start
as soon after 1870 o'clock as the line
can be formed. The exercises in the
opera house begin as soon as the duties
at the graveyard are completed.

John Green. the old man who was
so badly injured Thursday evening by
falling down a stairway in the South
ern hotel was in such a precarious
condition last evening that little hope
was entertained for his recovery. His
injuries are very much more serious
than was at first supposed. He sus-
tained bad rupture by the fall and
was otherwise injured. Yesterday af-
ternoon he became unconscious and
the county doctor ordered his removal
to the county hospital. He was taken
out at o'clock last night, at which
time he had not yet recovered con-
seriousness. Green is rs years old and
very much enfeebled from age.
John James, an inmate of the county
Jail, who was sick with pneumonia,
was also removed to the county hos-
pital. Callahan, the Bum. was also
