FOUND DEAD IN THE WOODS.
A South Easton Laborer Whom the Police
Think Was Murdered.

Brockton, Mass, June 13.-William
Randall a laborer, residing in South
Easton, was found dead in the woods in
that place this afternoon and Henry
Willis of 656 Belmont street,, Brockton,
is under arrest charged with committing
an assault upon Randall this afternoon
which may have caused his death.
Willis, who is about 3S years of age
processes to be a blacksmith, and is well
known as a horse trader, admits that
he met Randall in the South Easton
woods this afternoon and quarreled with
him. He says Randall called him vile
names and he struck him.
Willis told this story to Officers Costello
and Rainey of South Easton, who with
Officers Kingman and Joy of this city
found him at his home. He was taken
into custody and has not yet been in
formed of Randall's death. Nothing is
known in regard to the affair beyond
what Willis says, and he has little to say
about it, not even remembering at what
time the row took place.
But little is known in this city concern
ing Randall. Willis will remain in the
city lookup tonight and will be taken to
Taunton in the morning for arraignment.

CREW ESCAPED IN SEINE BOAT.
Schooner Jennie ID. Phillips Wrecked Near
M1nots Ledge.

Lynn, Mass, June 13.-Fishing schoon-
er Jennie D. Phillips, IS tons, owned by
Capt. Edward Doane and others of
Swan pscot, was wrecked early this morn
ing on Harding's ledge. The crew of
16 men took to the seine boat and rowed
to Swampscot which port they reached
in safety about 10 o'clock this forenoon.
During the past week the Phillips has
been cruising about Cape Cod for mack
ereI.
About 1 O'Clock Sunday off Minot's
light with a thick fog hanging over the
water and high sea running John Rog-
ers and Daniel Boyd We're on the watch
but the fog was so thick that they became
confused as to their bearings and they
sent below for Capt. Doane who was
asleep in the cabin. The latter hastily
dressed ard rushed on deck, but he had
scarcely got there when with shock and
crash, the Phillips struck the rocks and
brought up all standing A large hole
was stove in her starboard side just for
ward of her forecastle through which the
water poured swiftly.
A terrific sea was running and in their
efforts to man the boats several of the
crew fell overheard but were soon res
cued. The crew succeeded in getting
most of their belongings into the large
seine boat and then headed their course
for Swampscot some 10 miles away The
tug Peter B. Bradley of Boston, Capt.
Chase, offered its services but they were
declined.
During the journey to Swampscot the
boat shipped large quantities of water
owing to the high sea that was running
and the crew were greatly exhausted
when they reached the end of their long
pull. The Phillips was built in Essex in
1876 and was valued at $500.

HOPE TO CONCLUDE in TWO WEEKS
Republicans Think Debate on Tariff Bill
VIII End BY That Time.

Washington, June 13.-The sugar SEIZED.
ule of the tariff bill is expected to con-
tinue to be the subject OF consideration
for the next day or two. The Hawaiian
treaty and anti trust amendments are
still to be disposed Of, and both will ex-
cite considerable debate. With the sugar
question settled the agriculture. schedule
which has been partially considered will
be again taken up and will be followed
by the tobacco schedule if, in the mean
time, the Republicans agree upon it's
provisions. The Republican managers
hope also to dispose of the spirits and
cotton schedules during the week and
possibly to make some progress with the
hemp and flax provisions. There will be
no great amount Of debate in either cot
ton or spirits. There was at one time
talk of an attempt to add -commensatory
duties on cotton goods because of the
duty fixed on raw cotton, but this is un-
derstood to have been abandoned if ever
seriously contemplated.
The Democrats do not find the present
schedule objectionable except in minor
details and will allow it to 60 through
with but little discussion.
The Republican managers now hope
that the debate in the Senate will be
concluded in the next two weeks, not
withstandiDg less than one-third of the
bill has been gone over. They have Sc
cured an agreement with the Democrats
that the sessions shall begin at IL O'Clock
each day instead of 10, after Wednesday.
