GETTING ALONG NICELY
Progress of the Tariff Bill in
the Senate Regarded as
Phenomenal.
Already as Far Advanced as
the Wilson Bill Was in
Five Weeks.
Expected Prolonged Debate
Will Mark Important
Schedules.

WASHINGTON, May 31.-The impress
sion is general about the senat that the
sugar schedule of the tariff bill will be
reached toward the close of the present
week. The progress so far made is gen.
orally regarded as little less than phe-
nomenal, as modern tariff debates go.
Senator Vest declares that the present
bill is as far advanced now as was the
Wilson bill after five weeks of discus
sion, while Senator Jones (Ark. asserts
that as much of the present bill was
passed over on the first day of considera-
ton as was disposed of in the Wilson
bill in three weeks. The Republicans
generally concede that good progress
has been made, but they are not in
clined to felicitate themselves too much
until they see what policy is to be pur-
sued when questions of more general in
terest are reached than have yet been
preached. The sugar schedule in all
probability will excite more
Prolonged and Animated Debate
than any other in the bill. The Demo-
Gratis are making very extensive prepar-
ations for the discussion of this schedule
and several set speeches will be made
upon it. The indications are that vari-
GUS other questions of general interest
will be considered in connection with
the sugar duty. Senator Pettigrew is
contemplating presenting his amend
ment against trusts in this con-
nection, and it is certain that
the Hawaiian question will come to the
front in an amendment providing for
the continuance of the reciprocity
treaty with the Hawaiian Islands. If
Senator Pettigrew insists upon Offering
the trust amendment to this schedule he
will precipitate one of the most interest
ing debates of the session.
The Tillman resolution for sugar in
vestigation probably will be reported in
day or two. 1t will be passed without
difficulty when taken up according to
the present outlook.

NOT A FORMAL OBJECTION.

But the Porte Wanted to Know About
President Angeles Record.
WASHINGTON, May 31.-Certain inqui-
ries that have been propounded by the
Turkish government as to the record of
DR.. Angel, who has been appointed
successor to Mr.. Terrell as minister to
Turkey, have led to the erroneous con-
clusion that formal objection has been
made to the minister, or in other words,
that our government has been informed
that DR.. Angel is persona non grata.
At the state department it is firmly de-
MED that any such objection has been
made to the reception of the minister,
but it is fact that some time ago Mr..
Terrell was acquainted by the porte with
the fact that the Turkish government
would be pleased to know whether GER
tain ideas Of the qualities and record OF
the new minister were well founded.

HOPE IN WARLIKE RUMORS

Greek Newspapers Yet Expect to Benefit
by European War.
LONDON, May 31.-The Athens CORE
spondent of The Times says: Turkeys
continued arming and reported Russian
preparations, with other rumors of a
bellicose character, raise the hopes of
some of the Greek newspapers that
Greece may yet benefit from general
European war. But the majority of the
nation, sobered by sad experience, is
only DESTROYS that Europe should pro-
tect Greece against her conqueror.
There is no reason to fear that either
Bulgaria or Servia will abandon the
policy it has followed thus far. The
Turkish troops who have been sent to
the Servian and Bulgarian frontiers are
only intended to replace those who were
withdrawn just before the war began.

RUSSIA IS PREPAR

CONCENTRATING TROOPS IN THE EAST,
Possibility that War with Japan VIII

San Francisco. Dec, 3.-The Call says;
The report that the Russian govern
ment is buying large quantities of
army supplies in the United States, has
been verified. Gable messages from
Vladivostock asking merchants to bid
on large lots are frequently received.
Yesterday Dodge, Sweeney & Co. of
this city received Vladivostock cable
to figure on 1900 tons of supplies.
Travellers arriving from Asia report
that the garrison at Vladivostock has
been largely reinforced by the arrival
of troops ON steamers and sailing YES
sells from the Black sea. The concen-
tration of Russian troops at that point
and the haste that Japan is making
to increase their power ON sea, lead
some of our merchants to predict that
the impending conflict between Russia
and Japan may open as early as next
summer.
The recent heavy orders for army
supplies to be forwarded to Nladivo-
stock are regarded as significant of
important movements in the Orient. 1t
is believed that the completion of the
trans Siberian railroad with its ter
minus nj Vladivostock will largely in
crease the trade of San Francisco, and
there is talk of establishing n line of
steamers to that place, touching at
Alaskan ports. A local subsidy of SO. 900
Il month has already been subscribed
for an Alaskan line.
