THEY MAY NOT VOTE AT ALL
Three Silver Republicans Attitude
Regarding the Tariff Bill.
Hartman, Newlands and Shafroth
VIII support 1t, However, If
They Do Vote.

The three silver, Republicans OF the
House-Hartman Newlands and shafroth
Will probably not vote on the Dingley
bill at all But if they vote they viii
support the measure.
Representative shafroth stated his own
position on the bill 10 The Times as
follows:
Il believe in giving the Republicans
evc"I chance to pass their tariff bill
| want the whole tariff question out OF
the way in the next elections, so that
nothing but the silver question will be
before the people. Then the gold Re
pUhlicans cannot 'batlb;soZle' tie people
agaiI with the idea that all they need
to restore prosperity is a tariff bill or
course, l do not believe that the Dingley
bill will restore prosperity. We must solve
the currency question right before we can
hope for that On principle / am pIo-
teCtiOnist, although there are some details
of the bill / DO not like. While l have
no confidence in the bill as a prosperity
restorer. l believe the best interests of
the silver cause and Of the people will
be best served by its passage"
Representative Hartman, of Montana,
does not expect to vote on the bill at all
IF my vote We're necessary to pass the
bill" said he, Il believe | would vote
for it for the purpose of getting it out of
the way and giving the Mckinley Repub-
licans a fair chance to show what failure

even with the assistance of the very tariff
they desire
Representative Jones, of Washington
VIII vote against the Dingley bill.
Representative Albert NJ. Todd, the only
Trohibitionist in the House. is against the
bill. Todd comes from the old Burrows dis
trict that used to givefl ., 900 majority for
high tariff. He says: Il am opposed to
the Dingley bill because | believe it is
false in theory false in name, and will
operate in direct violation of the promises

years, respectively, were tried in the
Special Sessions Court today for stealing

stevens family, testified that the boys
stole the lead pipe, and from the manner
in which the theft was accomplished, it

August laid the whole blame On his ell

She promised to take good care of him

Judge exacted a promise from the boy
that he would be good hereafter and let
him go with his sister. George will be

Little Jimmie Kerrigan, Hoboken's

think that there is some good in the boy
interested themselves in his case, and
Judge F%utlsnetli cheerfully consented to
keep him here until they could see if
something else could not be done than
sending him to the Reform School. They
