A DIFFERENCE.
And II You Are to Have . New Opera
Cloak You Should OBJ


1.-THE great difference between a smartly
gowned woman and one who is only fine,"
said fashionable woman, ''lies in the fact
that the former knows what is the latest
distinction, while the latter does not; for
instance. in opera cloaks this season there
will not be probably more than half a doz-
en- richly dressed women who will wear
dark colors. but they will be the very
smartest Of the smart. happened to see
Mrs. Us cloak the other day, which she
has just brought over. 1t Is dark plum col
or. which, by the way. is the latest correct
thing. although dark red, magenta purple,
blue or green may also be worn. This cloak
is lined with light and brilliant brocade.
It is made like a monks gown. with loose
hanging sleeves, only there are q couple
of Watteau pleats in the back. sticking
straight out to allow for the fullness Of
the gown, as the slight train which is now
de rigueur on handsome evening dresses

opera cloak this winter the suggestion may
be useful.

Illnes. From Clothing.

'n people knew how much disease is
caused by wearing clothes improperly they
would be more careful about the matter
than they are said a well known physi-
clan. The great majority of men who
wear lace-up boots always wear them too
tight and suffer from varicose veins IN
consequences. Then there's a great deal
of throat trouble brought on by people

lung disease which has been accentuated by

The report of Consul General Lee
on the Ruiz case, Secretary Fay said
tonight, had not been received by
the state department The report, how
ever, is in the city, having been
brought by Gen. Fishback, the seere-
tary who accompanied Mr.. Calhoun on
his Havana trip. Mr. Calhoun ex-
pressed great surprise at the publica-
ton of what purported TO be Gen Lees
report this morning. He said the docu-
ment had been sealed in Consul Gen
eral Lees office, in the regular official
way, and delivered to Mr.. Fishback.

Washington. He was unable to under
stand how it should have become pub
lie. Mr.. Calhoun talked with less free
dem than characterized his interviews
while in New York. He complained
that some of these had been exagger-
ated and had made him say what he
had not uttered. The commissioner
carefully refrained from expressing an
opinion as to the probable policy Of the
president in acting on the Cuban ques-
ton, declaring that he had been to the
island simply to learn facts and to re-
port what he had seen and heard
This he had done. If he has formed
any opinion regarding the Ruiz case

cate what it was.

the bill. He referred to the apparent
divisions at present existing in the
senate, and said it was high time n
perfect understanding was reached
Senator Thurston then put his sugges-
uon in the shape of a motion to the
effect that the agreement of the caucus
should be binding upon all Republican
senator's, and it cal RED by a large ma

sugar schedule were those fixing the

amendments. but he did rot do So He
saiG that his interest in the revision
as a who,e was superior to his interest

had no pride in tie rates fixed by the
committee; that, Notwithstanding his
conviction that the committee rates
were equitable and in the line of Re
publican policy, he was willing to sub
ordinate his judgment to that of the
majority. The amendment was re-
ceived with demonstrations of approx

the senators present. Mr.. Hoar made
a vigorous plea for unity of action but
said the sugar schedule should be
definitely agreed upon at this time
and put in such shape as to terminate
the unfriendly criticism that had been
aroused.

consider the necessity of protecting

made speech in it's behalf. This oc-

ately to the state department, where
Judge Day, the assistant secretary Of

they proceeded to the White house.
They were shown into the cabinet room
where President Mckinley and Judge

island and the conclusions reached by
him. Judge Day declined to be inter

very interesting. Mr.. Calhoun has an

CURED early in the proceedings and
the Hawaiian question was apparently
lost sight of in subsequent proceed
1ngs over the main features of the
schedule. The caucus was compelled
to adjourn at noon, when the senate
met, and was unable to take up any
other question.
The text of the new sugar schedule
is as follows:
Sugars not above No. Is Dutch standard in
color, tank bottoms. syrups of cane juice
melade, concentrated melade concrete and
concentrated mclasses. testing by the po.ari-
scope rot above 15 degrees, cent per
pound, and for every additional degree shown
by the polar.scopie test, three-one-hundredths
OF one cent PERI pound additional, and frac-
tions of degree in proportion and on sugar
above No. 16, Dutch standard in color and on
all sugar, which has gone through process
OF OF r. Sfn:ng, one cent and ninety-fve-one-
hundredths of one cent per pound; mo,asses
testing above 40 degrees and not above So
degrees, three cents per gallon; testing 5e
degrees and above, six cents per gallon

be subject TO duty as molRsses or sugar, as
the case may he, according to polariscopie test

melada, concecrated mela6a and concrete
and concentrated molasses, the product of
any country which pays directly or indi-
rect.y bounty on the export thereof
whether imported directly and in condition
as exported therefrom, or otherwise, shall
pay, in addition to the foregoing rates. a
duty equal to such bounty, or so much there
of as may be in excess of any tax collected
by such country. upon such exported article
or upon the beet cane from which Il was
produced
A new paragraph is added reading as fol-
lows That the duty on m1lasses, clayed
iaggery and other sugars testing not above
81 degrees by the poiariscope. shall be one
tenth of enc cent per pound less than those
imported by the preceding paragraph on the
corresponding tests of sugar.
The failure of tha y RPD1lhjipa0 pa15c-1c
today to take steps looking to the pro-
lection of the Hawaiian reciprocity
treaty has caused considerable COM
n.ert, hut the friends of Hawaii in the
senate say that the omission was due
to no other reason than the want Of
sufficient time. They feel confident that
if the point had been reached, an
amendment similar to that proposed by
Senator Davis continuing the treaty Ia
force would have been accepted. They
base this assertion upon the manner ir
which Senator Frye's speech was re-
ceived and the side remarks made upon
the subject. They now express a be-
lief that the finance committee will ac-
cept the amendment without caucus
action. Senator Frye's speech was an
appeal for the maintenance of the
treaty. He said that Pearl harbor was
ceded to the United States in exchange
for the concession to Hawaiian sugar
by this country. and declared that its
act of bad faith.

Republicans in Caucus to as Party fer
the New Tariff

WASHINGTON, June 8.-The Repub-
lican caucus today was we'll attended
nearly every Republican senator in tht
city being present Great interest was
manifested in the caucus because it
was known that an effort was to be
made to secure rev sugar schedule
and one which all Republican senators
could support. Senator Aldrich OR. u
was present and, after the caucus ad-
Journed, said tt WAS very successful
and that he felt thar the Republicans
were going TO stansl together on all
schedules of the bin and that an agree
ment would be reached where differ
ences of opinion existed, Almost the
to considera ton of the sugar schedule !:
other features where there are differ
ences were not reached. No agreement
was reached in regard to the Hawaiian
treaty, and the committee is expected
20 report some amendments or a pro-
vision which will not leave the matter
n any uncertain condition or abso-
lutely abrogate the existing reciprocity
provisions of the treaty
An important feature of the caucus
yas the determine ton reached to vote
: together as party, which insures
favorable action on All contested sched-
ules and the passage of the bill as ap-
proved by the majority. This deter
mination was reached upon a sugges-
ton made by Senator Thurston. This
suggestion led to the most interesting
Incident of the caucus. There had been
several references to the meeting as ID
conference" Mr. Thurston objected to
this designation, saying that confer
ences never bound any one and that
he wanted it definitely understood
whether this meeting was to be bind
ing or friendly chat without further
results, for if 1t was not to bind all
senators on all schedules, he would not
agree to abide by the decision upon
the sugar question. This speech
brought Senator Hanna to his feet
with an earnest plea for party harmony
and united effort on all the features of

LONDON, June s.--A dispatch to the
Daily Chronicle from Constantinople
says it is rumored that stormy scenes
have. taken place during the sessions
of the peace conference and that Ger
man obstruction has provoked lively
indignation among a! majority of the
ambassadors.
LONDON-The peace negotiations
don't seem to make much progress and
there was considerable disquiet in
Athens last evening, caused by the
apparently reliable statement that the
negotiations were in danger or col
lapsing altogether. The ministers who
were questioned on the subject, now
ever, had no definite news of an OIL
ficial character and expressed the opin-
ion that the report was without foun-
dation. 1t is said ON good authority
that the powers are nosb trying induce
Turkey to sign general conditions. de-
ffning broad limits within which Tur-
key and Greece should afterward set
tie details by direct negotiation.
This is Regarded at Athens with dis
may and as a breach. of faith on the
part of the powers and as leaving
Greece to the tender mercies OF the
sultan. 1t is believed by many good
judges at Athens that Greece may
yet have to fight for her very exist
ence. Already there are reports that
the Turks have advanced In the
Agrapha district, occupied several vii
lagos and are still advancing toward
the town Of Agrapha. Greece has pro-
tested to the powers against this viola
ton of the armistice and Col. Tosama-
dos, the minister of war, has gone to
Lamia.
Premier Ralii, who has conveyed the
thanks of the government to the Greeks
of New York city for five cannons, said:
''The government does not forget the
armistice is not peace, and that it is
its duty to be prepared for every even
tuality.' The Greek newspapers all
