Galleries Crowded During the Struegle
and Many Noted People Present.

son Of Virginia, Ball Of Texas, Lanham
Of Texas. Kelly Of North Dakota, Flem-
ing Of Georgia, Handy OF Delaware, Nc
Dowell. Of Ohio. Berry OF Kentucky,
Bailey Of Texas and McMillin Of Tennes-
see being the speakers. The galleries
were. crowded up to the time the vote
was taken. many distinguished people
being present. Among them were a
number Of senator's, several members Of
hte cabinet and a few members Of the

subslded vote for free wool IN the fAce
u the Chicago platform which he helped
to defend!'
The Chicago platform did not take
the back track on the principle Of tariff
for revenue only" replied McMillin.
I'll prove that it did," cried Bailey.
rs Mr.. Robertson. Of Louisiana, in the
house?" he asked looking about him.
But Robertson was not present and Bal
ley proceeded to argue that the Chicago
platform did return to the ''old Demo.
cratic theory" When he repudiated
the Cleveland heresy" and announced
the doctrine that "all taxes should be laid
for revenue" the Democrats in sympa-
thy with him cheered Justify. Bailey
spoke for about two hours and a half
His peroration was enthusiastically
greeted and he was warmly congratu-
lated.
McMillin in turn delved into Bailey's
past and pointed out occasions when
the Lone Star statesman had voted for
free coal. free barbed wire, free sugar
and even free wool in tn Fifty-second
congress. McMillin's comment on the
Inconsistency of Bailey's free wool vote
caused much merriment. In conclusion
he appealed to the Democracy to go
into the battle again with its banners
bearing the old notices.
Dingley concluded the debate for the
Republicans. Referring to the trusts
he said they could not be eradicated by
epithets. THE way to break down the
trusts" he cried, lis to establish a beet
sugar factory in every congressional
district in the country and make COM
petition. That is the way to clip the
wings Of the trust" loud and long
Republican applause.l He then de-
manded the previous question on the
adoption of the report and the demand
was sustaind. The yeas and nays were
then called. resulting-yeas, 1856; nays,
11S. The result was cheered and the
house took recess to tomorrow.

In one OF this months magazines q
professor Of meteorolOgy gives some In
teresting facts about fog and frosts and
suggests the possibility OF dispelling fog
by scientific means. II is known that
fogs may form in three different ways
first. when the air has been cooled by
rapid radiation: second. when the cooling
results from a mixture OF different air
currents. and, third. where cooling has
been caused by an uplifting OF he air.
The sea fogs come from difference OF
temperature between The water and the
air Coast foes are caused by damp air
from the sea passing over the cooler
land or are formed at sea. when there Is
some great area OF high pressure In
California last year large quantities OF
fruits were saved by a process known
as Bodybuilding The newest and most
effective method Of preventing frost
consists in the introduction Of large
amounts OF moisture in the vaporous
state. When this vapor cordenses, or.
in other words, when fog is formed, an
enormous amount Of heat is given on.
at the very height at which It
: -rcst needed. Fog a-d f-ost both &C.
cur when the skies IRE clear and little
or no air stirring" Fog may be a bless
ing TO fruit growers, but to sailors and
travellers. 1t is frequently source OF
annoyance and danger Whether va
por condenses as fine Scotch mist or
coarse black fog is largely determined
by the dust. II We can remove the dust
from the air We have removed the nuclei
Of condensation. Five methods for re-
moving dust have been uggesteI--hltra-
ton. settling. recondensing, calcining
and electrifcation. The last named is
thought to contain the greatest posslbn-
ties and the day is probably near at
hand when electric fog-dispellers will be

terminal depots and crowded thorough

According to late numbers OF the Lon
don papers. the boom in seats to witness
the jubilee has been succeeded by a
slump. very few having been found to
pay the prices for windows which their
owners fiattered themselves they would
be able to exact The Truth says that
persons would be found willing TO pay
sums varying from $3.50 to:2o for a win
dow along a line of six miles, was far
too high an estimate OF the wealth and
OF the the folly Of the community to be
probable The idea appears TO have been
that every American with more money
than brains would take ship and arrive
on our shores ready to pay any sum
that might be demanded for one Of these
windows. But rich and silly Americans
have arrived in their hundreds and not
in their thousands, while as for English
men and women, We do not believe that
more than one or two thousand will be
ready to pay over fl per head for the
sight of the jubilee procession"

Treasury officials seem TO entertain ro
doubt that the tariff bill as reported 10
the senate will yield sufficient revenue
for the needs OF the government. AS
sistant Secretary Howell is quoted in an
interview in Washington Journal as
saying that while the revenue which It
is estimated certain schedules will yield
is less than that estimated under the
same schedules in the house ILL, there
will be offsets in increases Of Slc,cCo 90
from the duty on tea and SIS. 10000 from
the duty on beer. He doubts whether
the increased rate of duty on prepared
opium will result in increasing the rev.
enue, When the duty On opium was 81
per pound, in 1888, the quantity imported
on which duty was paid was 8.g7s.s
pounds, valued at Si17,65S, and the duty
amounted to sSoO,li5, whereas, in 1895,
when the duty was 50 per pound. there
were l25,6iS6 pounds imported, valued at
S9055l5.l3, and the amount Of duty was
S'il.26L76. The great difference in the
quantity imported in the years mentioned
is attributed 70 the fact that while the
higher duty remained the article was con-
stantiy smuggled, 50 that the quantity
which actually reached the country was
much larger than the statistics Of i'm
ports would show.

A vigorous policy towards aliens has

general of Canada urging that If Canada
should decide TO join in the British
treaty with Japan. it shall only be on
condition that Canada shall reserve the
power to restrict japanese immigration
