With Railroad Proposals..
ST. PAUL, April 5.-The schedule in
adjustment OF the present grain rates in
the southern part of the state, sub.
rlttcd to the railroad commission by
tne roads interested, will be rejected, it
IN understood. The commission will
now take the initiative and submit to
the railways concerned schedules of
their own. showing the rates which
they consider fair and reasonable ad.
1nstment Of the present difficulties.
The statement is made upon the best Of
authority that the commission will sub.
mt their own rate sheets, thereby
throwing aside the oyerturcs already
made towards a settlement.
The commissioners have maintained
studied reserve concerning the dis.
position OF the schedules offered and
filed last week with the secretary. One
member said in answer to question:
sour schedules are not yet ready
They will be submitted within day or
two in all probability" This state
ment confirms the report that the com.
mission will now take the lead.
Officials Of interested lines professed
to be much surprised to learn that the
commission had practically refused to
admit the schedules offered. 1t has
been the hope Of the interested lines
that by making partial reductions and
by conforming only in part with the re-
quirements Of the commission. q tasis
Of settlement could be reached which
would avoid litigation and at the same
time interfere as little as possible with
present sources Of revenue.

Porto Rican Bill Was Passed by Major

WASHINGTON, April s. The Porto
Rica1 tariff and government bill has
passed the senate by a vote of 40 to 81,
six Republicans voting against the

were adopted. The Davis amendment
providing that mo duties on imports or
exports after the passage Of this act
should be levied or collected on any ar.
ticles imported from the United States

Great Interest Shown.
It has been evident for some time that
the bill would command a majority in
the senate, but notwithstanding the
fact the interest in the matter both of
senators aud of the public had not
tagged bit. All day the galleries were
crowded. From III o'clock, when the
senate convened, until the hour when
the voting began, advocates and oppon'
ents of the bill brilliantly and eloquently
maintained their convictions and the
auditors were kept in state of constant
excitement.

the day were delivered by Mr.. Mason

He related why he did not want

in Georgia framed the dispensary

According to the Information
in possession of the war depart

Ho between IL and II miles by
road beyond Tlen Tsln. 1t is a
village of mud huts, of cObsidera-
BILE SIZE, but not walled. The river
at this point Is not navlgabte by
anything larger than a good sized

that the troops probably reached

the naval launches. The country

and Tien Tsln is a low, aiiuvIal

the war department knows no
strategic reason why the Chinese
should have made a stand there
rather tn q at any other Of the
dozen villages east of the walled
town of Tung Chow, where is
stored an immense amount Of
provisions upon which the city OF
Pekin would have to depend in
case of siege.
From the fact that the engage
Dent lasted seven and half

Tillman at Greenville.

Senator Tillman was received
with much applause. He said it
was six years since he spoke here
and it was great pleasure to be
here again and be so we'll received.
Today for the first time the
programme was changed and the
order of speaking reversed. II
was charged that he had been
meddling in affairs and that he
had no right to be here and be.
cause he had no opposition he
ought to keep away or discuss
nothing but national issues. He
explained the change of pro
gramme and was told he had un,
limited time. Before he started
he told why he was here and why
he had a right to be here. He
explained he was here in ODE
dience to party law and he wan.
ted it understood he would hew
to the line and if some fingers and
toes are cut off the fault would
not be his. Then he reiterated
that had he remained away he
would be accused of being too
big for his breeches and having
gotten the swell head, and then
when he came they turned around
and told him he was meddling.
1t was the same as of old, he
would be damned if he did and
he would be damned if he didn't.
He asked the crowd to be quiet
until he bottled the hot stuff.
The question before you is one
effecting you and your progeny
for life time. 1t is a question
to be decided upon the merits of
the matter. There should be no
undue pressure. He was here
also because he had been attack ed
and he and his administration had
been attacked and held up to de-
rision by Col. Hoyt the other day.
{ Applause for Hoyt and Tillman. J
Tillman then said he intended
only to speak of Col. Hoyt kind
ly. He would treat him as a
high-toned gentleman, but he
WARNED THE CROWD
that the more it hOllered that
way the less it would like it be-

wanted to discuss issues.

AS think OF a day to be borne without thee.
But thy face is engravened as deep ou my

As though Il were yesterday, love, we did part;
And thy smile reassures, spite of lapse Of tho

And dispels, as OF old, my hearts trembling

SO rise from my couch, and to waiting take

Resolved to be brave, since you'd have me 80.
Yet that can be only n desolate day
Which sees you, my Robert, so far, far away.

How you bore well your part till they crowned

So take up the threads of my task with

Bids farewell today as he goes to his rest,
watch him sink low in the folds OF his bed.
All draped in its curtains OF azure and red
And, bowing my head whisper good might, ="
Then dream but OF thee in the sombre twilight:
And thus you come softly, it seems, TO my side
For death and the grave no longer divide:
And face to face, heart to heart, meet we

Who e'er have been one who ne'er can be

And sweet only sweet is hat DAY unto me,
