The Post Office Bill.
ADJOURNED AT MIDNIGHT.
General Deficiency Bill Passed by the
Senate

The Senate yesterday afternoon passed
the general deficiency bill after four Lours'
consideration and after 1t had been amend
by Mr.. Rawins calling for an appropriation
of $4,000, 600 to further the work of irrigat-
ing the arid lands furnished material for
considerable discussion, Mr.. Rawlins con-
tending that the surplus in the treasury
could be better used in this manner than
by turning 1t into the national banks. The
amendment was rejected on a point Of or
der.
When the Aldrich financial bill was taken
up Mr.. Teller continued his remarks begun
Saturday. He was followed by Mr.. Car
mack, who replied to some criticisms of a
recent speech by him on the subject Of MUIR
ders in the Philippines. During the course
of the day the conference reports on the
Notifications appropriation bill and the
The immigration and omnibus public
building bills were sent to conference.
After a brief executive session, the Sen
ate at @ o'clock took recess until 8 o'clock.
Mr. Morgan got the floor soon after the
night session began and held 1t for nearly
two hours. In the course Of his remarks
he observed Mr.. Aldrich smile and called
attention to 1t. Mr.. Aldrich jestfngy re-
marked that he was smiling because Mr.
Morgan was not talking on the Panama
canal. Mr.. Morgan replied that that had nc
connection with financial bill except the
stealing part of it which Is in Paris.

moved slowly around the circle. Then, like
angry bears, they grapped; each grasping
the other below the shoulder, and striving
by sheer strength of arm to throw his

So evenly were they matched, that from a

went in Helga's cheek: her mouth worked
nervously.. Sigurd's eyes were fixed upon
the two like glowing lamps, as to and fro
they went with vengeful fury. In all the
valley there was no sound but the fierce
clash and clatter Of the swords. The very
trees seemed to hold their breath to listen.
Egil uttered a painting gasp of triumph;

He turned away. and the others followed.
Those Of the crew who had raised their
muddled heads to see what the trouble was
laid them down again with grunts of dis
appointment. Alvin was left alone un-
touched.
Yet truly his anguish would not have been
greater had they cut him in pieces. With
out knowing what he did, he sprang after
them. crying hoarsely: towards! Churls!
What know you of my blood? Give me a

passion and the violence Of his heart-beats.
But the mocking laughter that burst out
died In a sudden hush. A moment before.
Slgurd had concluded his pursuit Of the
thieving hound and rejoined the group-in
! time to gather something Of what had pass
ed. The instant Alvin ceased. he stepped
: out and placed himself at the young thrall's
| side. He was no longer either the corteous
| Sigurd Silver-Tongue or Sigurd the merry
comrade: his handsome head was thrown
up with an air Of authority which reminded
all present that Sigurd, the son Of the IA
nous Jarl Harald. was the highest-born in
the camp.
He said sternly: sit seems to me that
you act like fools in this matter. Can you
not see that he Is no more thrall-born than
you are? Or do you think that il-luck can
change a 1arls son Into a dog? He shall
