Mclean very closely; in fact too close

a tale of a mysterious man who has
rented a house opposite the one oc-

with number of assistants is keeping
tab on the men who visit McLean's S
residence the time of their appearance,

Startling Story Regarding the
Recent Paris Holocaust.

CHICAGO, June 24.-According to
story which has reached Chicago from
Paris, via Washington, the terrible
holocaust which wiped out over 100
lives at the French capital May 4, was
the work of anarchists, thirsting for
revenge on the upper classes Of
France. It is claimed that while the
official inquiry into the circumstances
surrounding the catastrophe threw lit
tie light on the cause of the fire, the
secret service department is working
on clew that points to an anarchist
conspiracy of stupendous magnitude.
It is said the Paris detectives have not
only satisfied themselves that anarch-
lists were at the bottom of the awful
crime, but that the leaders who
planned it, fled to America, as soon as
they had seen with what frightful sue
cess it had been executed. 1t Is also
asserted that several persons are
under arrest in Paris on the suspicion
of knowing more about the affair than
they care to tell. A member of the
French legation at Washington is said
to be authority for the story

damage wrought can better be imagin-

would receive from other duties.
The vote was on the general promo

1t was understood, should be left to the
finance committee, but the expressions
were so general in favor of the ad

feel itself Instructed to substitute this
system for the 111 cent a pound rate
originally agreed upon. There was also
general expression against any in

sheepskins, which the manufacturers
regard as a substantial victory
Inc debate on the tobacco schedule
was confined to the speeches by Sen

HaWley tonight represented the grow
ers in their efforts to secure a 81 rate,
and Senator Fairbanks the manufact-
urers in their attempt to hold the
original finance committee figures. The
caucus decided without division TO
stand by the compromise rate of $175.
There was only one vote raised in
opposition to the proposition to return
to the house schedule on watches and in
addition to admit watch jewels free Of
duty. The finance committee fixed a
uniform rate of 40 per cent on watches.
while the house provided a compound
duty. 1t is to this compound system
that the senate returns. The ques-
tlons of reciprocity, trusts, Hawaiian
sugar, beer tea and internal revenue
were not discussed.

Ten Thousand Confederate Veterans i'm Line

NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 24-Noth-
ing in the history of Nashville has
equaled the outpouring to witness the
parade, consisting of 10000 people on
horseback, on foot and in carriages,
which terminated the Confederate re-
union today. The parade was started
promptly, police on horseback clearing
the way, and from the start to finish,
the best of order prevailed. From the
starting point the custom house,
through the center of the city, around
the public square, out Broad street to
Vanderbilt university, a dense mass Of
enthusiastic cheering people greeted
the old soldiers, the generals and the
beautiful women who took part.
Gen. w. II. Jackson, of Nashville,
chief marshal, headed the parade, his
staff consisting OF distinguished men.
and staff came next, followed by Gen.
Vaughn, the new major general of the
Tennessee division. Then came the
state divisions, each preceded by spon-
sors, maids of honor and invited guests
beautifully attired in summer cos
tunes. South Carolina, Mississippi,

Virginia, Arkansas, Missouri, Ken

RATE OF TAXATION
LEFT TO THE COTnTTTEF
Increase imposed Imported Wrapper Tobacco Also
Sustained but the Committee Reversed in the
rlatter of Watches and Watch Jewels

WASHINGTON, June 24.-The Re-
publican senators decided in caucus to-
night, by vote Of % to IL, to sustain
the action of the finance committee in
placing a duty on hides, but did not
pass upon the question of the amount
of the duty to be imposed The COM
mittee was also sustained in the rate
fixed upon imported wrapper tobac-
co. The only other disputed questions
considered were watches and watch
jewels and upon these the finance
committee was reversed the house
rates being accepted on watches, and
watch jewels being made free. The
caucus was held in the Marble room
of the senate, and was we'll attended.
While the discussion was spirited at
times, the meeting was without spe-
cial incident. The greater part of the
time was given to the proposition to
hX duty on hides. Senator Lodge
led the contest against the action Of
the finance committee in taking hides
from the free list, and was seconded
by Senators Hoar, Platt, Spooner and
others, while Senators, Nelson, Allison.
Warren and Gear spoke for the duty.
Mr.. Lodge contended that the duty,
If imposed, would not be of any conse-
quence as a revenue item, and that it
would add nothing to the farmers re-
turn on his cattle, while it would have
the effect of greatly injuring the in
dustry of leather manufacture which
had grown to immense proportions un-
der the system of free hides. He said
that the exports of leather goods
amounted to $40 100000 per annum. and
asserted that if stiff duty should be
imposed, the industry would be greatly
checked. In reply the Western SEN
ators claimed direct benefit to the
farmer from the duty, and asserted
that he was as much entitled to the
