PROBABLY SAFE

From investigation, there would seem
10 be no foundation In fact for the
rumor - assiduously circulated Thurs
day afternoon and evening that the
steamer ElmOre had foundered. The
reports which were circulated were said
10 have come from parties from sea
side. Conductor Walker stated yester-
day that he only had four passengers
W from Seaside on Thursday. and
that he did not believe any of them
knew anything about the matter. The
road between Seaside and Elk creek.
h. said. was obtructed by fifteen or
twenty fallen trees. and the govern
mcnt telephone line was broken in as
many places. No one. TO his knowl-
edge. had passed over that road ex-
oept the mail carrier. and he had
stated that he knew nothing Of the
report. and had had no COMMUNICATION
with the Tlllamook Rock people. All
lines OF telephone ard telegraph be-
tween TiIlamook and Portland or As
toria are down. but by this time. had
there been any accident. a messenger
could have reached here overland. II
Is therefore a certainty that the FL

partmeut--haMaii 10 Come 10.

Washington. March 2s.-IThe tariff
bill was thrown open for amendment
under the FIVE minute rule in the house
today Seven weary hours Of work
only served 10 dispose Of nine pages
OF the 1862 pages Of the bill. All the
amendments offered by the democrats
we're rejected. Three slight amend
ments by the committee were adopted
and also an amendment by Mahoney
20 Increase the duty ON white lead
from two and half cents 10 three
cents per pound. the rate in the act
OF 1880. The present duty Is one and
half cents. Mahoney said the In
crease was asked for by a concern
which was independent OF the lead
trust. II was adopted by a strict party
vote. The discussion covered a wide
range Of political topics and at times
was interesting.
BY far the most important feature
OF the day was the attempt Of Dockery
Cooper and Others, backed by the en-
tire opposition. to secure a vote on an
amendment offered in a multitude OF
forms which provided that in case II
should be shown 10 the satisfaction
OF the president that any article made
dutiable by the bill was controlled by
a trust or combination. the duty upon
such articles should be suspended
Dingley made a point Of order that
the amendment was not germane to
the dutiable list and would not be
in order until the free list was reached.
For almost three hours this point OF
order was gone over and made the
subject OF examinations and recrim-
nations. The democrats contended
that II the amendment was ruled out
IL would never be voted upon. as the
free list. in all human probability,
would not be reached before the final
vote was taken. The chair sustained
the point OF order. An appeal was
taken. but the chair was sustained by
a strict party vote of 15s to 1O4.

NEW POST OFFICE RULES,

Washington. March 26.-Another fac
tor in the policy of the postoffice de-
partment is announced by First As
itant Postmaster General Heath. 1t
is that offensive partisanhip will not
be considered a provocation for re-
moval, unless such action is shown to
have been detrimental to the admin
istration Of the postal service. Fully
half a dozen of such charges were
made to Mr. Heath today, including
offices at Hastings, Neb., where Sen
ator Thurston made a complaint, and
at Ashland, Ill. Every case, however,
lacked the essential requirement Of
the specification of damage to the ser
vice. This policy, when announced
by Heath, created some urprise among
those who had pushed their charges.
