THE BRITISH BUDGET.

Statement of Sir Michael Hicks Beach Increase in the Estimated Expendi-
 lures.
 London, April 13-The chancellor of the exchequer, Sir Michael Hicks Beach, presented the budget in the house of commons to-day. The house was crowded when he rose to make his speech. He said the trying period of last years Spanish-American war and the difficulties on the Niger and the Nile had no prejudicial effect upon the country's revenue, the result for the year being a small surplus. He confessed to being disappointed with the tobacco receipts. If they were able to leave tobacco alone he felt confident the anticipa tions of an increase of rev. enue from the increased consumption would be more than realized during the coming year.
 He estimated the expenditure for the of 96,O9S00O over last year, the total increase of expenditure during the last four years being no less than G19,076- GOO. If this increase was to continue, the speaker pointed out. parliament must agree to a large increase in taxa tion, or discover new productive sources of revenue, or the result would be re- action against great expenditure, and he feared that such a reaction might impair the efficiency of the defensive services, to the point in which they un- happily stood during the last genera tion.
 The chancellor of the eXchequer then said: "We must. however, be hopeful that the approaching conference of the powers who are animated by a desire for peace, may devise a check for this terrible competition in armaments, so wasteful of our ability, energy, and money, from which even the Wealthiest nations may pray to be delivered (cheers). At the same time, if the eX- penditure of ornaments is reduced, I am convinced we shall have to increase it in another direction. l fear the eX- penditure of the present year cannot be regarded as merely temporary.
 The sum of A |, i5o, ,OOO. the largest on record, will be available for the re- ducton of the debt"

Y1LE DORMITORIES INSPECTED. Fire Department Off cials Make n Special
Exa mination of Then


 At the instance of the Vale News" the editors of which, ever since the Windsor hotel fire, have given express sion, through the columns of their pa per, to a feeling of fear of the conse- Guences of fire breaking out in some of the college dormitories, Superintendent Fancher and Fire Marshal Gladwin of the fire department, yesterday morning made an inspection of the same. They started on their inspection at 10 o'clock and were shown over the buildings by Frank E. Hotchkiss, the superintendent of the campus.
 The first buildings inspected were the remaining ones of the famous "Old Brick Row" Lyceum, North and South Middle. These were the buildings thought to he the most dangerous by the editors of "The News" and the in- specting party made a careful eXamina- ton of them. All three are used as dor mitories, and lodge about 150 students The next ones visited were Lawrence,
 
 White dormitory on Elm street. Dur fee, in the opinion of the fire depart ment officials, is not fire proof. The stair cases are narrow wooden ones, and would be the first part of the build ing to go in case of fire. Lawrence, Farnam and White dormitories, said Superintendent Fancher, are absolutely safe, and in case of fire every student would be able to get out safely.
 The "brick row. has long been con- sidered as a dangerous building, but has been allowed to stand more on ac- count of the associations connected with it than on account of any particular usefulness. The buildings are more than one hundred years old, and are built in the frailest and flmsiest man. ner. Many of the partitions are of wood, and these, it is said, were regard ed With much severity by the, inspect ing party.
 It is thought that Superintendent Fancher will make some report to the faculty of the university that will cause them to be torn down and new build ings erected in their places. He will render his report in few days.

Two of Them.

& EVERAL hasty newspapers have
~ sanctioned the statement that, as
~ the sequel of the death of Mr..
Morrill,, Mr. Allison becomes the father
of the senate" That is not So The
fatherhood of the senate is in a very
singular way-it is a tie. On March 4,
1873, Mr.. Allison, of Iowa, took his seat
in the senate. On the same day John
P. Jones, of Nevada, began his senator
ial career Since then these two men
have served continuously
John Sherman holds the record for
senate service, but it was not contin-
uous. There is no telling how the pres
ent tie will end, even assuming that
both Allison and Jones are kept in the
senate. Allison is 70 years old, hearty
and vigorous; Jones is 6S years old and
he is a man of sound health. Senator
Stewart was in the senate ahead of
both of them, but he left the senate in
1875 and did not return until 1887.
The public has a good knowledge of
the two senior senators. Mr.. Allison is
probably the most noncommittal man in
American public life. If he has views
that he is likely to stand by for any
length of time, in relation to important
public questions, his next-door neigh
bors and close associates in the senate
never know of it. His ambition has
been the presidency-his policy has
been that man mustn't be very pro-
nounced about anything if he wants to
get into the white house as its occu-
pant.
Jones was about year old when his
parents, who were English, landed in
the United States. He is seldom heard
in the senate, but in that body and
outside of it, he is deemed to be withal
the best-versed man in the United
States on the silver question.

of the democratic side of the Pennsyl-

a joint-ballot total of 81. 1t requires
1928 votes to elect a senator; the solid
democratic strength plus forty-one anti
Quay republicans would do it. Until
the Tuesday caucus there was no way
to get the exact measurement of this
anti-Quay republican strength. Pretty
close figures are available now. There

fourteen more than would be needed for
a fusion that would end Quay's career.
Tt has not TRANSFERRED, however, as the
result of any recent occurrence at Har-
risburg, that the democratic members
of the legislature are willing seriously
to consider the proposed fusion.
AS was told in yesterday mornings
press dispatches under Harrisburg date,
much depends on the outcome of the
proceedings announced to take place in
the supreme court, at Philadelphia, day
after tomorrow. Saturday will be an

course of proceedings against Quay, it
is probably that the legislature will
find it simply Impossible to disregard
the popular demand for his defeat. On
the other hand, it seems to be generally
admitted that if on Saturday the SUI
preme court quashes the pending pro-
ceedings, he will get readily the votes
he now lacks.

TWELVE PAGES.
The Air Thick With 1t.

1rHE situation at Helena, as far as
the federal senatorship is in
\ volved, is one that warrants no
exact forecast as to what the outcome
will be. The part w. A. Clark plays
in it is final effort. before he con-
cludes to make New York city his
home, to buy this states seat in the
federal senate. Mr.. Clark will GER
tainly not be able to do this. He can
buy some votes; already his heelers
openly boast that they have closed sew
eral purchases.
These bribe-takers are alleged demo-
Gratis who, in their greed for a million
aires money, are willing to forget that
the Clark boodlers from Butte are fresh
from vicious attempt to break up the
democratic party in Silver Bow county
and from a desperate effort to elect
delegation of pronounced administra-
ton republicans to membership in the
Montana legislature.
1t is admitted that no considerations
of honesty or decency can be made
effective with legislative members who
are ready and willing to sell themselves
and their constituents to Clark; some
of them We're in full pursuit of him
and his money before the official count
was made.
1t is the indisputable truth that there
are not six democrats in the legislature
of Montana to-day who would, on any
honorable or on any party considera-
tion, vote for w. A. Clark for sena-
tor-not six. There are not even six
votes which Mr.. Clark will get that are
unbought votes.
The spectacle presented day is one
of shameless bribery the like of which
has no match in the history of political
corruption in the United States. It is
more bold, more brazen, more open
even than former efforts of w. A. Clark
to buy the senatorship. In truth, the
men who are passing out Clark pur-
chase money to members of the legsla-
ture seem bent on making good their
promise that they will make him put
up enough this time, sure.
1t is certain that this proposed pur-
chase cannot be successfully carried
through. 1t is certain that w. A. Clark
will not be able to buy the Montana
legislature. But the spectacle progress
ing at Helena is one that sets throbbing
with Indignation the breast of every de-
cent citizen.
