The Austrian Minister Protests.

Washington, June 5.-Secretary Sher-
man today sent to the Senate protest
from Baron Hengelmuller, the Austrian
minister, against the discriminating
duty on sugar in the tariff bill. In his
note Baron Hengelmuller says that the
discriminating duty conflicts con one
hand with our right to the most favored
nation treatment, and on the other
threatens to heavily damage Austro
Hungarian exports. - The minister calls
attention to tho former correspondence
on the subject regarding the tariff of
1894 and says that the United States
then recognized the right of the Austri-
ditional duty levied against the export
bounty as appears in the report of Secre-
tary Gresham to the President, October
12, 1S94,a that the President in Deem
Der, 1894, recommended to Congress the
repeal of the additional duty.

to the elaborate celebration.
The city now has an option on the
beautiful Mardi Gras floats which are to
be used in Charlestown on June 18th
and which may be brought here providing

the people in this section of the country
the greatest spectacular display ever seen
north of New Orleans. The following de-

now trying to raise money enough to
bring to Portland, is taken from the car
