HIS TRAIN CAME TOO LATE.
N ONNH IL
mssnnanassassnua
[BY j. IL
Respectfully dedicated to w. H. Wilson
Davilla, Texas. In memory of
his son, Harry.


Hopelessly bound to a bed of pain
A lad just in Youths prime,
Suff'ring the pangs of dread disease
And the sad disgrace of crime.
Thinking of parents dear to him
He ne'er on this earth would meet
He looked far beyond to Eternity,
Where mother ere long he'd greet
The Warden came to his bed one day,
With a bright smile on his face;
He says, "NOw, Harry cheer up my boy,
You soon will leave this place.
Today I've secured a pardon for you,
Your parents you soon shall see.
Take my advice: go home to them
Show the world what man you can be-"
The wan face soon was wreathed in smiles
His joy no disease could disguise,
AS he thanked the Warden with mute hand
shake
While the tears welled up in his eyes.
"Don't fear, kind Warden, - he said, mid tears
"That ever word you shall hear
Will cause regret for what you have done
For this pardon, to me so DEAR
A father started from his Southern home
His mission was one of jOy
AS fast as steam could carry him on
r. He fastened to bring home his boy.
Twas six o'clock when his train arrived
To the prison he ran with heart athirst
But alas! for mOrtals, too late, too late!
The train with the Angel of Death came first

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Beyond the
facts that the general deficiency appro-
priation bill will be passed and that
the senate will stand ready to take up
the tariff bill at any time that a report
may be brought in by the conference
committee, little can be predicted of the
course of events in the senate during the
present week. The disposition is to do
little in the way of general legislation,
and there is a proposition under coneid
Grafton by the leaders of the two sides
of the chamber to adopt the plan now in
vogue in the house for sitting only ev-
cry third day after the deficiency bill
shall have been disposed of.
This suggestion has been made in view
of the possibility of pressure to take up
the matter of the appointment of cur
rency commission. The impression
about the senate is that the house will
pass such bill on the subject as the
president may recommend, but there is
no probability that the senate will take
up the matter seriously. They desire to
make this intention clear by infrequent
meetings.
Tehre are, however, sor matters on
the executive calendar demanding at
tention and there may be an effort to
clear this calendar off during the week.
If such should prove to be the case there
would be more or less discussion in the
executive session over the McCord,
Warner and Goodnow nominations The
friends of the Hawaiian annexation
treaty on the foreign relations commit
tee also hope to be authorized to report
a resolution at their meeting next
Wednesday, but it is by no means GER
tain that the committee will be able to
reach an agreement so soon.
Monday will be devoted to the general
deficiency BILL particular attention being
given to the provision for the purchase
of armor plate at s425 per ton. This por-
ton of the bill will be seriously antag-
onized and quite fiercely debated.
Senator Harris of Kansas will en-
deavor to get up his resolution regarding
the reorganization of the Union Pacific
railroad during the week, but in this he
will be opposed and is not likely to sue
ceed.
The tariff conference confidently ex-
peCuo " DIluS III tlc tdliil Jill Wy Aul
day. The length of the debate on the
report will depend upon how well the
senate conferees have succeeded in
maintaining the integrity of the senate
bill. The Democrats and other oppo-
nents of the bill make no secret Of their
intention to oppose the adoption of the
report if it appears that the amounts
which they were instrumental in secur-
ing, putting cotton bagging, cotton ties,
burlaps, paris green, etc, on the free
list, have been receded from.
Th senate will insist upon final ad-
journment as soon as the tariff bill is
disposed of.
IN THE HOUSE
The house will adjourn from tomorrow
until Thursday. Its course thereafter
will depend on the condition of the tariff
bill.
The herald., 1897-07-12

there is talk of widening it's scope 50
as not only to include tax on actual
transfers, but on all recorded sales. This
necessity for revenue also furnishes a
strong argument for the restoration of
the house rates on imported tobacco.
1t is impossible to estimate yet when
a final agreement will be reached, and
though various dates are given as to the
length of time the bill will remain in
conference, ranging from Tuesday to a
week from tomorrow, one of the most in
fluential Of the conferees said tonight
that all arrangements were pure guess
work. He said decisions on the matters
of great Importance on the bill were so
interdependent that ultimate decision on
one mighe involve complete agreement
one might involve a complete agreement
might come at any time after the rest
of the matters of secondary Importance
were out of the way.
When the report is completed it will
at once go to the house, where it is not
likely that more than one day will be
allowed for debate. The anxiety to get
the bill on the statute books and the
great loss of revenue involved in each
"a hours delay, it is argued, justified the
Republican managers in declining to
give more than a single day for it's dis
cussion.

THE SULTAN STUBBORN
IN REGARD TO THE FRONTIER
QUESTION
The Powers Will Insist, but None
Is Anxious to Begin Coercive
Measures

| CONSTANTINOPLE, July 11.-Queen
Nicholas, President Faure and King
Humbert have replied to the telegram
received by them from the sultan, and
all give advice similar to that sent by
Emperor Francis Joseph.
Emperor William says in substance
that he regrets his inability to disasso-
ciate himself from the views held by the
other powers.
Replies to the circular of the Turkish
government to the powers relative to
the frontier question have also been
received by the ambassadors. They all
decline to admit the Turkish preten-
sions The porte has sent another cir
cular to the powers, proposing that, in
view of the disturbed conditions existing
in Crete, Turkey send reinforcements to
the island. To this the powers have
also replied, endeavoring to dissuade the
porte from such course
This later proposal on the part of the
Turkish government is held to indicate
that the sultan does not intend to yield
in regard to the frontier question:
SIGNS OF DELAY
LONDON, July 12.-The Times Ber-
lin correspondent says the sultan's tele-
gram to Emperor William, asking the
emperor to consider the representa-
tions made by the Turkish ambassador
at the German foreign office and to sup
port them in the European concert"
Emperor William replied that he
would examine these representations in
friendly spirit but abstained from
giving any assurances of his aid.
The Daily Chronicles Athens corre-
spondent says Il have just seen. an
important communication from the for
eign minister of one Of the powers de-
claring that no power is inclined to un-
dertake coercive measures to bring about
settlement between Greece and Tur-

PAGAN DANCES
Rouse the Fears of the Pueblo Indian
Agent

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE army
officer in charge of the Pueblo and Xica-
rilla Indian agency in New Mexico has
submitted a very vigorous report on
the dances carried on by the tribe, and
has asked for instructions looking to
giving teachers on the reservation Sc
curity from insult from the Indians
in the future. He says he has just fin
ished an inspection of the day schools
about the agency, and foundmany teach
ers complaining that on account of the
dance in the Pueblo agency they were
either locked in the rooms and COM
PEELED to remain there until the festivi-
ties were over, or were driven from the
village entirely and not allowed to come
back until the expiration of a given
period of time.
"The whole question in all its dam
nable ramifications," the agent insists,
will have to be settled. sooner or later.
The government cannot go on paying
millions Of dollars annually for the civ
il'ization of the Indians when these
plague spots exist, and they live on it's
bounty"

IN CONFERENCE
Sundays Session Sees Very Good Pro
gress Made

RreSS mace
WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE con-
ferees on the tariff bill held four-hour
session today. The anxiety to reach a
complete agreement as early as possible
induced them to meet on the Sabbath,
and tonight both the house and senate
conferees appear satisfied with the pro-
gress that has been made. Several hun
dred of the minor amendments have
been agreed upon, many of them mere
changes of phraseology, and on large
majority of them the house conferees
naturally have yielded. None of the
really important problems in the bill
however, have as yet been solved. All
of them have received more or less con-
sideration, and there has been a free
exchange of opinions. The temper and
disposition of the senate and house con-
ferees on these important matters have
in this way been ascertained. In sew
eral cases the conferees are very close
to an agreement. Both sides show a
commendable spirit of conciliation, and
while in each instance each side seems
to be holding out strongly for it's con
tention as to rates. there has not yet
appeared on the horizon anything which
pOrIeuQS SUCH ullllCulty dS WOulO uOt
in time be surmounted. There are the
best of reasons for believing that several
of the main points of contention will be
compromised This Is especially to be
believed ye lumber, hides and wool, and
possibly sugar, though on the latter the
house conferees are standing particu
larly firm for their schedule.
On the subject of reciprocity the drift
of opinion seems to be in the direction
of the senate substitute. but with GER
tain of the house provisions, that is the
list of articles which can be used as e.
basis of reciprocity treaties, will be
broadened but that the senate provision
requiring the ratification of the treaties
will be discarded. Several of the emf
nent lawyers in both branches of con-
gress question the constitutionality of
the power conferred on the president
by the senate reciprocity provision. The
stamp tax on bonds and stocks provided
for in one of the senate amendments
has not yet been affected. The revenue
furnished by it furnishes strong argu-
ment for its acceptance, in view of the
heavy anticipatory importations. and

CHATTANOOGA. July ia special
to the Times from Jellico, Tenn, says
that there Is great destitution among
the miners in that region, many Of them
having large families and not knowing
where the next meal is coming from.
Some Of the miners have gardens and
they have been able to make the truck
raised on these to do them for the abso-
lutte necessities. The, relief committee
recently sent abroad to get help has re-
turned and reported that they had met
with poor success. Committees are to
be sent to the East Tennessee districts
in the hope that aid may be had while it
is sorely needed. The miners and opera
tors have had no meetings since May,
and there does not seem to be the slight
est prospect for an amicable adjustment
of the wage question.
The men at these mines have had
little work for nearly two years, and as
consequence they have nothing laid
up for rainy day.
