Washington, June 2S. = An abrupt
and startling halt in the tariff debate
occurred in the senate when, in the
midst of a passionate speech, s 4natOr
Pettlgrew, silver Republican, of South
Dakota, was stricken with paralysis
of the vocal cord, which brought bis
vehement speech to a close with
sentence half-uttered. The senator
was not physically incapacitated eX-
cept in the sudden loss of the power
of speech. Although he took his seat
unaided, his associates felt that grave
possibilities were involved in such an
attack. They were quickly by his
side and he was ministered to with as
little confusion as possible. He left
the chamber soon after and was taken
home by his friends. The debate pro-
ceeded, but no further progress on the
tariff bill was made, and the awe-like
feeling occasioned by this incident led
to an adjournment at o'clock.
The senate had started on it's second
passage through the bill. the purpose
being to dispose of all items previous
~ passed over The paragraphs con-
Sidered were i'll the chemical and
earthenWare schedule and failed to
cept in the unfortunate instance ter
mil ating with Mr.. Pettigrew's afiiic-
ton.
Mr.. Harris of Kansas presented the
report on the Pacific railways agreed
to Nv the committee on Pacific rail
WAYS. He also presented report Civ
ing the views of himself and Senators
Morgan and Rawlins. which was not
agreed to by the other members of the
committee. Mr.. Morgan, who con-
Cured in the report, said the situation
demanded immediate action by the
senate as the agreement made by the
executive branch relative to the sale
of the road on foreclosure at the min
imrm price was about to be con-
summated. He therefore announced
that on Mo lday next he would ask the
senate to consider the subject. Mr..
Morgan also severely criticised the
course of the government authorities.
The resolution went to the calendar.

Washington, June %. - A stubborn
contest over the d. ties on manufac-
tured wooden goods occupied the atten-
tio1i of the senate throughout the day.
1t was day of constant roll calls and
Of crOSsfire debate on the effect of the
duties i'll advancing rates. Many
amendments were proposed to reduce
the rates, but these were rejected by
decisive majorities. Less than five
pages were disposed Of during the day,
carrying the senate through paragraph
$40, the first of the paragraphs relat-
ing to carpets. During the day Mr..
Caffery 1a.) spoke at length against
the protective system and severely ar
raigned those Democratic senator's
who had voted for duties on wool and
other raw materials.
Resolutions of deep regret were pass
ed on the death of Representative
Cook of Illinois, and a committee of
five senators was named as an escort.
Washington, June %. - The senate
completed the wool schedule the silk
schedule and the tobacco schedule of
the tariff bill, and with this accom-
plished the tariff leaders had the sat
isfaction of knowing that all the sched-
ules of the bill and the free list had
been gone over once. There now re-
mains only TO go through the bill
second time, passing on the items
passed over. These are very numer-
Gus and important, including hides,
gloves, coal, tea and beer. After that
the internal revenue features of the
bill will be all that remains. Prog
ress was rapid, although every para
graph relating to carpets was stub
bOrnly contested. The consideration
of the silk schedule led to a strong
contest against the proposed duties on
silk fabrics, Senators Teller and
Mantle joining with the Democrats in
opposition. The paragraph was
passed by the slender majority of 2.
The tobacco schedule went through
with little friction after the committee
had advanced the duty slightly on
wrapper and leaf tobacco.

revival of business at New Orleans and
at centers tributary to it is regarded as
encouraging on all sides. 1t is noteworthy
that the National Park bank, one of the
institutions prominently connected with
southern interests, made a large increase
in it's loans last week. The trend of money,
however, is now largely in the direction of
New York, domestic exchange having hard
ened perceptbly at most interior cities
The local banks are gaining in cash in con-
sequence. The increase in deposits, in view
of the expansion in loans, is entirely logi-
cal. The Pacific foreclosures payments
may be expected to figure in the statement
for a few weeks to come, although the re-
suit OF this settlement, as now arranged,
ought not to disturb the money market.
The settlements are more in the nature Of
transfer to the treasury and again to
the banks. but a short interval separating
the beginning and the end of the whole
affair. But since the January disburse-
ment period intervenes, there may be
slight advance at the end of the year.
II is rather remarkable that the loans of
the banks are still within $1,000 OC0 of the
high point reached on September 18TH In
the same time deposits have decreased
$4,000 600 and cash no less than SIS, 900, ,O0O

CHICAGO MARKETS
Yesterdays Transactions on the Board

CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-Wheat was strong at
the opening. The Liverpool market was
not sharer to the full extent in the pre-
vious days weakness here. Paris sent
bullish advices. The weeks clearances
from all Atlantic ports We're 5,575 PIG BUSH
els. and Liverpool bids for Chicago No. 2
spring wheat were Sd. per quarter &c per
busheD higher than those of the day be-
fore. The most bullish item of the early
news, however was the Ohio November
crop report, making the condition of wheat
in that state 81, and the reduction in acre
age II per cent. This report was made up
before the recent rains, but had marked ef-
feet, nevertheless and was the main factor
in the opening advance and the gain which
followed. The news was not all bullish.
The domestic receipts were no less liberal
than before. Chicago had 139 cars, COM
pared 222 a year ago; Minneapolis and Du-
luth reported Ills cars against rs last year.
The total receipts at the principal western
markets were ,1S1. .S24 bushels, against S42.-
16i bushels the sponding day of 1896.
That would perhaps have had some effect
in checking the desire to buy had the shorts
not been oYersold, as was evidently the
case. Continental cables quoted declines
of 121a centimes at Antwerp and from 10
to 20 centimes at Paris, besides centimes
decline in -four at the latter place. Min
neapolis wired that 2G00 cars of wheat were
looked for as the receipts there Monday.
but neither did that benefit the shorts to
any appreciable extent. The increase in
receipts this week over last at Minneapolis
and Duluth numbered $40 carloads. The
Atlantic port exports amounted in wheat
and flour to Col 900 bushels. A New York
dispatch said a cargo of wheat had been
wired for Vienna via Hamburg. and an
other New York message reported 25 boat
loads taken. chiefly for France. 1t was
slso reported that $50 loads Manitoba wheat
had been worked for the United Kingdom
The trading was light and only spasmod-
ically active. December was not much
heard of. but it's value had many changes.
1t seemed impossible to make two consecu-
tive trades in December at the same price.
1t ranged from 93as to 93M. and closed 5s
higher at "a. May started half higher,
at from 91H to 91as, gradually improved to
91si, and from that down again to 91%@
91ss Afterward it rose to 92A and closed
at 91%@91B.
Corn was firm on a narrow amount of
trading. The market was influenced by
the unexpected strength of cables and by
yesterdays large export sales, New York
reporting 100000 bushels sold.
There was gain and active trade in oats.
There was quite influential selling through
the session, particularly by elevator peo-
pie, but all the offerings We're taken. and
the market ruled strong from the start.
The market for provisions was duller, If
possible, than yesterday. Prices were
