schedule OF the tariH bill is expected to con
tinue to be the subject OF consideration in
the senate for the next day or two. The

There viii be no great amount OF debate on
either cotton or spirits, There was at one
timo talk Of an attempt to add compensa-
tory duties on cotton goods because OF the
duty fixed on raw cotton, but this Is under
stood to have been abandoned, If ever geri
ously contemplated. The democrats do not
find the present schedule Objectionable. eN-

one-thrd of the bill has been gone over
They have secured an agreement with the
democrats that the sessions shall begin at
II o'clock each day instead of IL after next

years is in the city. He has just returned
from the credit mems convention held al
ST. Louis last week where his bill was
endorsed after a warm discussion He
says the opposition was more vigorous on
the floor of the convention than in the vote
The judge expresses confidence that his
bill will become a law. He has little faith
that congress will act favorably on the Mel

paper, calling for mass meeting of
the citizens of Bellevue to take some action
on the matter of obtaining better trans
portatlon facilities between that village and
the cities on the north, is now being cir
culated and is being largely signed. 1t is
thought that there will be no difficulty in
obtaining the names of fifty taxpayers to
petition asking for a special election to vote
bonds for an extension of the street car line
from Albright to Bellevue. This petition
will be presented to the taxpayers al the
mass meeting which is soon to be held.
South Omaha merchants are taking quite
an interest in the scheme and a number
have signifed their intention of attending
these meetings at Bellevue and helping the
matter along all they can, A car line from
here to Bellevue would be a great thing
for the merchants of this city and they have
been quick to cgnize the advantage of
such an improvement.
More than likely subscription will be
raised here to add to the bonus given by
the citizens of Bellevue.
