will be brought up for trial before Tuesday next
Again there is trouble with the engineering de-
partmcnt of the monitor Puritan, and the latest
developments point TO the necessity for an over
hauling OF the furnaces. On Thursday afternoon
late while n dock trial Of the monitors engines
was being made. three OF the furnace crowns OF
one of the boilers gave way. Captain Bartlett at
once reported to Commodore Bunoc and report
was sent on to Washington. The Commodore APP
pointed a board of inquiry which will examine
into the condition Of the boilers. Since the ex-
citing trip up from Charleston which the monitor
made some time ago her engines have been over
hauled and partially rebuilt and 1t Is thought that
the boilers. which were built about twelve years
ago may have suffered from corrosion during their
long idleness to such an extent that they have be-
come seriously weakened.
The sharp thunderstorm yesterday afternoon de-
ranged tho telephone system OF the yard and sew
era connections were burned out although no seri-
damage was occasioned.

For his part Mr. Teller added, he couid not see
whv vote should not be taken tomorrow. But
there are others who still think that the emu
will not be reached until Monday-if so patriotic
a body as the Senate can be induced TO SIT Oh
Monday which is a residuary National holiday.
The only portions Of the bill which remain to
be 1isposed of are the internal revenue para
graphs. including the proposed new tax on STOCK
sales and issues. The Finance Committee, as
result Of last nights caucus. has thrown over
board the additional internal revenue tax on
beer and the 10 per cent duty on imports or tea.

revenue rates On manufactured snuff and to-
bacco. retaining the higher duties only on cigars
and cigarettes The stock tax amendment

the Finance Committee. imposes charge OF
two cents a share on every transfer of stocks

bonds. bonds given to secure mortgages. and the
stock of mutual benefit building associations are

amendment as thus framed Will probably en-
counter little opposition in the Senate.

bill occupied practically all the Senates time to-
day. Both led to a good deal Of debate, In which
some strange divisions In party sentiment De-
came apparent The retaliatory section. Tor IN
