TAWNEY DISGUSTED WITH TARIFF
Says the House Republicans Will Insist on the
Original Dingey Bill

and disgusted with the work Of the
senate committee ON finance. He says
that the tariff bill, instead of having
been improved, has been butchered. He
further intimates that the senate bill
will not be accepted by the house; but
that the house Republicans will insist
upon the passage of the original Ding
ley bill.
The Republican party is all torn up
over the tariff, and 1T has so many
wings now that it is impossible that
they should ever get to Hopping to-
gether. 1t is the opinion Of many men

CUT OFF HANDS OF NATIVES.
Gov. wahis Says 'Tt Is "a Native Cus-
TOM"

LONDON. May 31.-Gov. Wahis, Of the Con-
go Free State, has column letter in the
Times this morning controverting the state
ments recently made by Missionary Sjobloms
in this city at a public meeting at Exeter
hall, where the subject Of Western African
Christian missions was under consideration.
He admits the truth Of many Of the charges,
such as the mutilations and the severing Of
hands by the soldiers, which, he says, is
native custom extremely difficult to erad-
icate. He admits that an attack was made on
the village Of Mandakacagigs, and that many
cruelties were praciced there. But he de-
clares that all these offenses have either
been punished or are being investigated. The
letter is ON the whole, less a denial of the
offenses imputed by the missionaries than
justification OF the Congo administration.
The Times, commenting editorially on the
expresses regret that the charges against
Congo Free State cannot be submitted to a
full and searching inquiry.

Of the postoffice department as to the

a few Of the third class offices, where
circustances urge their peculiar fitness.

of the legal declaration that contracts
made by minors are voidable. This
effectually bars them from being even

Montreal, Aug A. - The American
challenger yacht Mono to-day beat
the Royal st. Lawrence Yacht Clubs
Glencairn in the race for the Seawanhaka

dian boat was a slight favorite.
The day was very clear with only high
fitful breeze. Glencairn crossed the first
line at II p. m, but was soon headed by
the Mono, which led by 800 yards at the
end Of the first three-fourth-mile. To the
surprise of the experts the American boat
continued to increase her lead, having
drawn ahead half a mile at the end of the
first six miles. Mono crossed the winning
line in the lead at 2:23lz. Glencairn cross
ed at 2:27h.
The elapsed time Of the winning boat
was hours, 4SiA minutes.
The Mono sailed a beautiful race
throughout, and her showing was a great
surprise even 70 her friends. Il is now
conceded that the American challenger Is
likely to be a sure winner Of the series,
and will take the cup back to Seawanhaka
Coriuthian Club.
