WAR REVENUE BILL.
REPUBLICAN, MEMBERS HOLD
A CAUCUS.
Reach An Agreement ON Important
1tems-Impression That Sill
yer Will be Coined.

WASHINGTON. June THE Repub-
lican members Of the Conference Com
mittee on the war revenue bill were in
caucus for about four hours to-day,
and it is stated by members of the
caucus that they practically reached an
agreement on the most important items
of difference between the two houses.
They relate to the coinage of silver
bullion, the form of the bond provision
and the. amount of the bonds the in
heritance tax. the duty on tea, etc.
These questions have not yet been
raised in the full conference and the
Republicans decline to state any points
of their agreement.
The general impression among Sena-
tors is that there will be some pro-
vision for coinage of the seigniora ge,
and possibly all the silver bullion in ,he
treasury. but it is not believed that
the terms of the Senate provision will
be accepted without material modifi-
cation.
The result of the Oregon election
strengthened those opposed TO make
any concessions to silver, but 1t also
had the effect Of causing the Western
Republican Senators to be all the more
clamorous for recognition. They ex-
press confidence that their representa-
tions will not go unheeded, and they
profess to speak upon assurances from
Republican members Of the conference.
Two sessions of the full committee
were held. but in these only matters of
minor Importance We're passed upon,
and as q rule the Senate amendments
on these matters were accepted
Among the changes was one in the
beer tax provision. making 1t definite
that the stock on hand exempted should
be the stock in the hands of dealers
and not Of brewers.
The House conferrees are maxing a
determined contest to relieve insure nee
agents from the license, OF $12 year,
and they have indicated a tend encv to
allow the tax on bankers brokers, the
aters, etc, to stand if the insurance
agents are not taxed. a
They are also making an onslaught
on, Senator Chilton's amendment eX-
tending the provisions in regar,lto pro-
prietary medicines to other articles,
but the Senate's representatives lndl-
cate disposition to yield on This point.

ALBERT H0FF.
The Murderer Of Mrs. Clute Will
Not be Hanged Friday.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 1.-Albert
Hoff will not be hanged on Friday, as
was expected. for the murder of Mrs.
Mary Clute in this city on December
10Th last. Delay of his execution for
weeks, perhaps months, has been OBJ
tanned by means of an appeal to the
Supreme Court .on alleged errors in
the judgment of death.
The appeal to the Supreme Court was
perfected to-day. Through Hoffss at
torneys he filed before Judge Cook at
the opening of court this morning for
NAL notice Of an application to the Su-
preme Court for a reversal of the judg-
ment of the Superior Court. By this
appeal he will succeed in having re-
viewed the information upon which he
was tried, the instructions of the court
to the jury during the trial, and the
final judgment of death.
This appeal, by operation Of law, will
stay his execution until the case is
passed upon by the Supreme Court. In
all probability the Supreme Court will
hear HOff's appeal early in July.

Great Falls. May 10.-The following
story is told of John f. Low and a little
incident which happened recently in the

1t appears that in last weeks issue OF
the Chronicle an article appeared that
aroused the displeasure Of a certain in
dividual who. upon being shown the
said article. went and armed himself
and proceeded to the lonely den of the
bachelor editor. with a grim determine
ton to avenge his imaginary wrongs.
Arriving at the sanctum, he imme-
diately corraled Editor Low in the cor
ner, and at the point of a revolver de-
manded an Immediate apology or make
peace with his Maker. Poor John was
about to yield when his optics fell on
the armless sleeve of his adversary's
coat and he realized that he was but q
one-armed man. With a lightning
glance at his inferior imp" who had
up to this time sat on a stool as an fn-
terested and amused spectator, but who
now realized that the time for action
had arrived, he made the usual grin,
one of the elementary lessons taught In
all well conducted offices, and tina IS
the grasping Of the iron mallet and
monkey wrench. and after several sick
ening thuds on his head the visitor was
finally persuaded to leave. Editor Low
now breathes freer, and swelling him
self up to the utmost. he went forth
upon the street and was heard to make
the remark. You bet we fixed him.
