TARIFF IN THE SENATE.
No Prospect of a Speedy Vote on the Ques-
 tion.

tion.
 Washington, July 20.-The tariff con- ference report was presented to the senate to-day, but little progress was made on it beyond the formal reading of about two thirds Of the report. There was no indication of when the final vote would be reached. During the day MT. Tillman, dem., of South Carolina. openly threatened to flibuster until next December if cotton bagging and.
 cotton ties were not restored to the free list. But the threat was regarded
 as somewhat facetious.
 The sugar amendments occasioned q hong debate, during which MT. Allison
 stated that the conference rates were lower than those of the senate and largely a concession to the house. Sen- ators Vest, Jones, Berry and White
 questioned this statement, urging that the sugar trust secured larger benefits from the conference schedule than from any previously offered. The lun1- Der amendment also brought out ami mated criticism from Senators Teller and Pettigrew.
 The indications when the senate ad- journed to-day were that a vote would
 be reached upon the conference report on the tariff bill some time during Thursday, or, at the latest,' before the close of the week. There may be a change in the conditions which will postpone a vote, but it is difficult to see what could cause it. The opposi- tion to the bill realize that there Is no possibility of preventing the adoption of the report, and their present purpose is only to secure what advantage they can by exhibiting what they claim are the inconsistencies of the measure. It is true that at one time they had some hope of being able to secure the recommittal of the bill, but thorough canvass reveals no foundation for this hope It develops the fact that the re- publicans will vote solidly for the re- port, and that they will be supported by Jones of Nevada and McEnery of Louisiana, and also by Mantle and Stewart. They have also discovered that Senator Kyle, who Is absent, has left strict instructions that he should not be paired.
 | With the adoption of the report thus assured, the democrats probably wifi not attempt to prolong the debate be- yond the arrival of MT. Hurley the new senator from Tennesse. They will continue to ask for an explanation of changes made by the conference but these will not occupy a great deal of time. The general opinion is that the
 quorum of the senate will disappear very soon after the disposal of the tar if bill, but the determination of the supporters of the Harris Pacific rail-
 road resolution to secure a vote upon it
 before final adjournment may delay that consummation for some days.

Jeremiah Manchester on Trial for His Life -His Former MLstreas Held.

Fall River. Mass, July 20.-In the district court to-day Jeremiah Man chester was arraigned on the charge of murdering Holder A. Tripp on July 10. Supplementary to this case, Sarah Reagan, alleged to be the wife of Man chester was heard on charge of po- lygamy. William Reagan was the first witness, but he declined to testify against the woman. The government however, offered the testimony of John Manchester, town clerk of Westport, a justice of the peace, who married the woman and Jeremiah Manchester June "A, to the effect that the parties said they had never been married.
 The defendant took the stand and ad- mitted that she married Reagan four teen years ago, but said that she had not heard of him for more than seven years and relied upon a statute of Him. itations to release her from responsi- bility in marrying again. Upon hear ing this, Reagan declared that two years ago he had seen the woman and had given her money then. She was held for the grand jury in LOGO.
 The case against Manchester was then called. Medical Examiner Dolan described the wounds on Tripp's head and said that the death blow was de- livered with a heavy instruments. Drs. Buck and Fay testified In corroboration of these facts, and Motorman Joyce and Conductor Airlie of the street car from which the murder was discover ed also testified.

 orator of Town Meeting.

At meeting of the board of select men last evening A. Mcclellan Mat thewson was appointed moderator of the town meeting to be held Thursday.
 The request of the New Haven Street Railway company for permission to double track Woodward avenue at Grannis corner. The double tracking of the road at that point would neces- sitate the widening of Woodward ave- nue. This would entail an expense of about $2,000 to the town. It was stated at the board meeting last evening that the railroad company had offered, if the double tracking was allowed, to widen the street at its own expense This proposition met with favor among the selectmen, but nothing definite was done. A further consultation with the railroad company will be had.

SUNK BY THE HENRY SUTTON
NEW HAVEN SCHOONER IN COL
 LESION IN BOSTON HARBOR.

Struck tho Fishing Schooner Elmer F.
 Randall in D Thick Fog-The Randall
 Sank in Ten Minutes-Her Crew Rescued
 by the sutton-Which Vessel was at Fault
 the Courts Will Likely Determine.
 Boston, July 20.-During dense fog this morning the fishing schooner El- mer E. Randall of Beverly, bound in with a load of fish, was sunk near the Boston lightship by the schooner Henry Sutton of New Haven, bound to the Kennebec for ice. The Sutton was lowed out of the harbor early this mor- ming and after casting off the tug she made sail for her destination. At the time dense fog was rolling in and the wind was light from the eastward. The schooner's horn was blown at frequent | intervals and for an hour no answer was heard to the blasts.
 When near the lightship, which is | anchored six miles east by south of Boston light, three shrill blasts from a | fog horn were heard and there loomed | up directly ahead the two masts of a l fishing schooner, which proved to be | the Elmer E. Randall, bound in from
 rip fishing on Nantucket shoals with a l fare of about 25,000 pounds of mixed l fish.
 | Before those on board the Sutton had time to sheer off the vessels came to- l gether, the bow of the Sutton making a gaping hole in the side of the fisher
 man. through which the water poured
 in torrents, the vessel settling imme- | diately. Some of the fishing vessels crew clambered on the deck of the Sut- | ton by the fore rigging, while the re-
 mainder were taken off by the Sutton s boat, which was immediately lowered
 and manned by the mate and two men. | The Randall sank in less than ten min utes.
 The shippers of both vessels claimed
 tonight that the horns were being
 sounded at frequent intervals, while | captain Towne of the Sutton is sure that the collision was unavoidable. The
 sutton was lowed up to the city late
 this afternoon, and anchored off the
 flats, The crew of the Randall were
 unable to save anything from the boat
 and landed without a penny in their pockets.
 l The Randall was built at Essex,
 Mass, in 1893, and registered 56.96 tons
 gross, and 51.12 tons net. She was 79 2
 feet long, 20 feet beam, and 7.6 feet
 depth of hold. There is no insurance
 on ths vessel. Captain opkins claims
 that his vessel had the right of way
 and recourse will probably be taken to
 the courts in order to settle the ques-
 tion of which is to blame for the col 1 lision.

1895 Was 3,1a5,O00 Tons-Clty Ranks
 With Charleston as Port. Washington, July 20,-Major s. $.
 Leach, in charge of river and harbor Improvements in Connecticut, has sub
 mitted his annual report to the war de- partment.
 The jetties at the mouth of the Con- necticut river below Hartford, the re-
 port says, have not been completed
 and the deterioration by settlement of wave attack has injured them The channel is in a satisfactory condition as a result of the annual dredging. The
 available balance for continuing the l improvements Is 0,921.
 The project for sixteen-foot chan l nel at New Haven harbor lacks only the widening of the Fort Hale cut from
 one hundred to 400 feet to complete it. A resurvey shows no impairment in the cut made through the bar nearly in | the axis of the natural channel in 1895. The bed of the harbor generally ap- pears to be- of an exceedingly stable | character.
 | The commerce of the port of New l Haven in 1895 was three and a quarter | millions of tons and so far as tonnage Is
 an index of commercial importance, the report says, New Haven deserves | to rank with Charleston. The west breakwater was extended 1,490 feet. The breakwater in the Housatonic river was placed in satisfactory condition by repairs to the amount of 6,652 tons of
 material. No work was done at Bridge port harbor, but under contract dredg- l Ing will be applied to widening to 200 feet the fifteen foot channel on it's east
 side from the sound to the outer beacon | and to extending the fifteen foot chan
 nel from the outer to the inner beacon. The available balance is S12,044. l Attention was given to widening the
 channel at close points at Norwalk har- Dor rather than to securing greater | draught throughout.
 | Work on a contract to extend the
 channel at Stamford was begun.

 London, July 20.-A special dispatch from Madrid referring to the revival of Carlism, says:
 Large quantities of supplies are stored on the French border and large consignments of arms have been order ed in Germany and in Belgium. While nobody. thinks that the Carlists will openly rebel in the present circum- stances, if popular discontent over the mismanagement of Cuba and the sub serviency of the government to the United States spreads and develops riots, as 1t is quite likely to do, then Don Carlos may try his luck again.

 Washington, July 2O.-The president to-day received the resolution adopted asking him to use his good offices in the settlement of the coal strike, but has not yet sent 8 reply.

 Steubenville, O.. July 2O.-The Dillon- vale and Long Run milers held mon- at Long Run to-day and voted unani. mously not to work stroke until they get their price. The entries to both mines have been boarded up, and the miners regard this as mere bluff and say that as soon as the strike is settled the company will be glad to open the mines again. The deputy United States marshals may go away tomorrow.
 St. Louis, July 20. Having succeeded in getting the miners at O'Fallon, III. to go out, the army of strikers that have been marching from town to town persuading men at different points to quit work left this afternoon for Belle vile, which place they will reach about sundown. The people of O'Fallon pro- vided nine wagons to convey the army as far as the Lebanon Rock road, four miles from Belleville. As many as could get in the wagons rode and the others walked.
 Trouble Is feared at Belleville, as the miners there have declared their i1ten- tion of not stopping work, while the marching miners say they will force them to do so.

 The members of the Connecticut Sen- ate club of 1897 were the guests of Lieu tenant Governor James D. Dewell yes terday at the Branford Point house. The party left this city at 9:30 o'clock in the morning on the steamer Mar garet and returned about o'clock last evening. The whole affair was purely social, nothing savoring of politics en- tering into the conversation, and the day was replete with good solid enjoy ment. Mirth and good fellowship abounded at the excellent shore dinner, and on the whole trip. Short and felic- itous speeches were made by every senator.
 It was decided to repeat the event next year, and possibly hold midwin- ter gathering. Senator Steele of Wa terbury Is i'll with nervous prostsation. and his colleagues therefore passed res- olutions of esteem and regret to be for Warded to him.
 Senator Marigold is quite a. wag, and as chairman of the executive commit tee he got up a very unique menu, in which he facetiously worked in take off on every senator. The menu was as follows:
