ciaI Orders Were Adopted.

advancing to the important metal
schedule. During the session the para
graphs covering marble, stone, china,
glass, brick and tiles were completed,
with a few minor exceptions. Messrs.
Vest and Jones of Arkansas, in behalf
of the minority of the finance commit
tee, proposed numerous amendments,
which were defeated by majorities of
from to IA.
The votes were on party lines in the
main, although Messrs. Rawlins and
White (Dems.) voted with the Repub-
licans to increase the rate on onyx, and
Mr.. McEnery Dem.) voted with the
Republicans against Mr.. Jones' propo-
sition for a reduction of the rates on
china

sonal privilege while the tariff debate
was proceeding and made brief but
pointed denial of all speculation in sug-
ar stock, either recently or at any time

the onslaught for the minority. The
majority position was ably defended
by Mr.. Henderson (Rep.) of Iowa and
Mr.. Grosvenor CRep.) of Ohio.
The appeal of Mr.. Lewis Dem.) of
Washington, taken last Thursday from
the decision of the chair, that a resolu-
ton relating to foreign affairs did not
constitute a question of privilege, was
laid on the table, and after the skirmish
over the methods of procedure three
special orders were successfully adopt
ed, by two of which the senate bills
making special appropriation for the
government printing office and for
granting the secretary Of the navy per-
mission to contract with any two ves-
sells to carry contributed supplies, TO In
dia We're passed.
The other provided for the copsidera-
tion of the Frye bill to prevent col
lisions upon harbors, rivers and inland
waters of the United States connected
with the ocean, but Mr. Payne, i'll
charge of the latter bill, was forced to
abandon it for the day to avoid the
