FINAL TOTE ON THE TARIFF.
Futile Endeavor to Fix Time-Stamp Tax
 on Bonds.

Washington, July 5.-Senator Allison, in charge of the tariff bill, announced shortly before adjournment of the sen- ate tonight that as no agreement had been reached for a final vote on the tar Tiff bill, he would ask the senate to re- main in session tomorrow night at least until the bill was reported from the committee of the whole to the sen- ate. This promises a test of endur- ance, unless the opposition to the bill gives way. MT. Allson's statement was made after another futile effort to have Q time fixed for a. vote.
 In some respects the senate made good progress to-day, two important amendments being agreed to. The stamp amendment as agreed to fixes the following rates on bonds, etc.:
 Bonds, debentures issued after Sep tember 15, 1897, by any association company or corporation on each hum dred dollars Of face value or fraction thereof, five cents; and on each original issue, whether on organization or re- organizat ton of certificates of stock by any such association. company or cor poration, on each hundred dollars of face value or fraction thereof five cents, and on all transfers of shares or certificates of stock in any associa- tion, company or corporation, on each hundred dollars of face value or frac- ton thereof, two cents"
 Exemptions from stamp taXesare made in the cases of state, county and muni- cipal bonds and the stocks and bonds of cooperative building associations,
 Late in the day several new amend ments from individual senators were on. One by MT. Mantle, of Montana, reducing the internal revenue tax on distilled spirits to 70 cents per gallon was defeated, 23 to 41. An amendment by MT. Mills of Texas proposing tax of five per cent. on manufactured prod ucts the proceeds to go toward refund- ing the bonded debt was rejected, 19 n 22

KILLED BY AN EXPLODING BOMB.
Tragic Death of Henry E. Stone, Former
 President of the 0. E. and Q.


 President of the 0. E. and Q.
 New Bedford, Mass, July 5.-Henry B. Stone, former president of the Chi cago. Burlington and Quincy railroad, and president of the Chicago Telephone company, was instantly killed at Non- quitt this morning by an explosion of day fireworks. Mir. Stone, with his fam- fly and other summer residents of Non- quit, was celebrating the national hol- iday with a handsome display of day fireworks. Among them was a piece which, when exploded, let loose paper animals of various coIors MT. Stone had applied the torch to this piece, but for some reason it did not appear as if the spark was going to reach the mine. MT. Stone advanced and took the piece up in his hands. Before he was aware of 1t the ltece exploded, striking him full in the face. His features were quite badly mutilated and he sustain ed compound fracture of the skull. His friends who were present cannot tell just how the accident occurred. One gentleman who was present states that when MT. Stone first applied the torch to the bomb the party, turned their backs toward MT. Stone and ran short distance for safety sake just about the time the explosion should have taken place.
 When the bomb did not at once go off, and seemed as if it was not going to, MT Stone took 1t in his hands, hold ing it quite close to his face, presuma- bly, to fan the spark into blaze by blowing his breath upon it. Before the party had fairly turned to view the explosion they were mortified to see Mir. Stone drop to the ground amid a crash and volume of flame and smoke. Dr. Bullard of New Bedford. who was at the seashore resort, was immediately called, but it was useless, as MT. Stone was cold in death having been instant " killed by the shock.
 Nonquitt is shrouded in gloom over the sad fatality, for Mir. Stone was a regular summer visitor with his family, owning a very comfortable cottage there.
 He leaves a wife and four children, and was brother of Francis H. Stone of New Bedford. He had been contem- plating a trip to Europe in the course of a few weeks. The remains will be sent to Chicago for intermert.

OUR ATTITUDE ON SEAL QUESTION.
Not Changed From What it Has Been
 Since the Paris Decision.

Washington, July 5.-The fact that the state department is preparing for transmission to congress the oorre spondence that it has had since the be- ginning of the session respecting the Behring sea seal fisheries appears to have been construed in some quarters and by the London Chronicle as an in- dication of a purpose on the part of our government to make a radical change in it's policy in the treatment of that long standing diplomatic issue, and to seize on this opportunity to an
 nounce it's adoption of a bold Ameri- can policy. The truth Is that this particular correspondence was called for by congress weeks ago and has been delayed in transmission principal ly because MT. Foster, who conducted personally the greater part of 1t In con-
 junction with MT. Hamlin. was absent in Europe.
 Now, however,it is in shape and prob ably will go to congress this week. It can be stated that it will not show any change in the policy of this govern ment which has ever since the hrst years experience under the Paris award regulations showed the inett- ciency of those regula ations to protect
 the seals and lost TO opportunity to urge an extension of the rules upon Great Britain. This has been done courte- ously at all times and Great Britain has responded in like spirit, though to
 the regret of our government without consenting to the modification desired There have been some remonstrances exchanged: for instance, the British have protested against what they re- gard as the abuse of the right of search on the part of our patrol yes sels and on our part the British have
 been told that their refusal to permit the sealing up of fire arms carried by sealers amounted to an evasion of the spirit of the Paris award
 But in all of this there has been no exhibition of Ill feeling or anything like 'jingoism' on our part, and while the recent success of MT. Foster in secur- ing the adhesion of Russia to the exten- ! sion of the regulations over the entire i north Pacific ocean beyond the 10th degree has strengthened our position in l the British negotiations. it cannot be l said that there has been any change in 1 the line of the policy laid down by Sec retary Olney ill the last administration.

NATIONS BIRTHDAY
New Haven Observed It's An- nIversary in a Tradition
 ally Patriotic Manner.
THE DAY INTENSELY WARM
BUT PUBLIO PROC RAMME SUCCESS
 FULLY CARRIED OUT.

Thousands Watched the Morning Parade The Long Column Moved Through tho Principal Streets and Was Made Up of
 Representative Military and Civic Or ganizations-Exeroises on the Green--An Address by Mayor FarDsworth aud an Grafton by Rev. Dr. Phillips of the Church of the Redeemer-Singins by the HaruSari soctsty-vast Crowd on the
 Green in the Evening to Witness the stration on the Part of the American
 Youth Indulged In.
 The glorious Fourth and likewise Fifth of July have come and gone, and once more the small boy and the big citizen of this City of Films can sleep undisturbed O nights in the calm sat- isfaction of having periodically shown their approval of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, one hun dred and twenty-one years ago Sun day.
 The day has left behind it little to re- gret. Several over-exuberant or over- careless small boys will find employ ment for coming days in nursing burns or extracting powder grains from be- meath their epidernlis.
 For some time also the leisure gentle men whose duty it is to keep the green clean will find abundant employment in gathering up the fragments of the glorious Fourtl-the pieces of exploded firecrackers and other fireworks that are strewn everywhere.
 The celebration of the day began promptly on time, at 12 midnight Sun day. There were occasional hints of the coming celebration all through the peaceful Sabbath in firecrackers sur reptitiously exploded by some small urchin weary of waiting. The grand firecracker and cannon cracker pande- moniuna, however, commenced at mid night and 1t lasted till the next mid night.
 The day was a typical July scorcher, and it took a tough patriot to stand the vigor of Old Sors celebration. Every one celebrated somehow Some fled to the shore and escaped the pandemoni- um of the city; some indulged their sporting taste in the races and inciden- tally roasted on the bleachers at Elm City park; others used the quiet picnic form of celebration, while the great body of celebrants who had no taste or plans for specialties took in the pub lie exercises.
 These included the morning parade, the literary exercises of the afternoon and the fireworks and concert in the evening.

Hardly had he struck the water when Ma lone grasped him with a drowning mans clutch and Nolan could not un- loosen his hold. Both men sank and were drowned. The first intimation the spectators had was the delay in the fireworks display. Malone was an en- pIoye of the Pain Fireworks company.

eALLING OF QUEENS.
How to Release the Captive insects
without Injuring Them.


When a queen is balled you'll find
bunch of bees as big as a hickory nut
or larger that seem to cling together in
a very solid manner. You can't pull
the bees apart, and you may roll the
ball over and over, says Texas Farm
and Ranch.
If strange queen is thrown into
hive she is usually balled, and, as near.
" as we can make out. the process is
something like this: The bees seize
the queen at various points till she is
entirely surrounded; then other bees
seize the ones that have hold of the
queen, and in this position they remain
fixed for hours, until the queen is dead.
If strange worker is thrown into the
hive she isn't treated the same as
queen. and nothing but queen is ever
balled. The worker may be bitten OF
stung, but never balled.
The balling bees generally make
Kissing sound, unlike the noise they
make at any other time. Whether that
proceeds from anger, or what, we dc
not know. Sometimes bees win ball
their own queen, usually for the sake
of protecting her. In the middle of
bali of her 6wn bees it certainly seems
she ought to be safe from foes. You
cannot pull the bees apart so as to free
the queen, and if you should succeed
in getting some of the bees away OF
should manage to get the queen loose
the bees will Immediately seize heI
again. Perhaps the quickest way &c
get the queen free is to throw the ball
into cold water The little miscreants
will scramble to get out of the water
as lively as they can, and at once seem
to forget all about the queen, leaving
her to her own fate. Water is not al
ways at hand, and you can blow smoke
upon the ball. If you blow hot smoke
upon them, as usually you will if you
hold the nozzle close enough, you will
at once seal the queens doom, for the
bees will promptly sting her; but if
you hold the smoke at distance and
keep up strong stream of cool smoke
the bees will soon conclude they want
to find some place with purer at
mOSphere.

IN The KITCHEN.

Paraffine oil rubbed over tin kettles
and sauce pans viii keep them look
ing very bright and new.
Putting vinegar on spinach is consid-
cred by some people as an epicurean
crime similar to that of adding sugar to
lettuce
Baked potatoes have their starch
grains more thoroughly cooked than
when either boiled or steamed, and. for
this reason. may often be safely eaten
by delicate invalids who cannot touch
them boiled.
An odd but effective remedy for food
scorched in the kettle is to lift the re-
ceptacIe at once from the stove and set
it in R pan of cold water. In nearly
every instance the burned taste will be
entirely removed.
The more you handle puff paste, the
better it is. according to the authority
of cook-but It must be managed care
fully, like delicate tulle, and the fun6ia-
mental principle is to keep the air in,
not to press it out.
