THE NEWS FROM ALL PARTS

WAsHrNsroN. d. c. April a.
The western senators do not seem to
be succeeding in their efforts to make
radical changes in the Dingiey bill,
especially with reference to the wool
schedule. 1t IL understood that Presi-
dent Mckinley IL using hts influence to
prevent any radical change In the
principle in which the bill was con-
structed. II was assumed that the
president Is in sympathy with them 30
their fight. 1t turns out, however, sfhet
ne thinks they should. be satisfied with
the protection which this schedule At
fords to the wool growers.
The passage of the tariff bill through
the senate is said TO be assured. II Is
said that forty. five senators can be de-
pended upon to vote for the bill, In any
shape 1t Is likely to come to . vote.
These are: Alldrich. Allison. Baker.

NEW YORK. N. r., April 14.--
Advices from Dublin say that commit.
tees are already Il work in that city.
Cork and Wexford, on the preliminariea
for the reception and entertainment OF
the American. delegations who are to
visit ireland, next year, to participate
in the centennial celebration Of the
sRising OF 17s8." So far there have
been no indications that the govern
ment will interfere in the proposed
demonstrations; although the fact is
recognised that, with the large major
ity 1t the beck and call of the adnninis-l
tration, II might prohibit the oenten-
nial celebration and be assured Of In
dorsement in the house Of commons.
Nothing definite has yet been heard
in Dublin from the United States con-
cernipg the organization Of delegations
from the principal states and cilies. but
1t 10 thought that the terms the Irish
commiitee has secured; namely, $500
Tor each person Tor the round trip o.
thirty days from New York, including
steamship and railroad fares. hotel
bills and incidental expenses. should
insure an immense delegation.
According to the preliminary pro-
gramme. thu visitors will go from
Queenstown 10 Cork and thence to
Dublin. spending four days at each
place and rounding up at Wexford,
where the centennial ceremonies will
be held on the site OF the battlefislds Of
the insurrection, and monument
erected to the memory of the heroic
