CONGRESSIONAL SUMMARY.

Washington, May 3l.-Agreements
were reached in the senate upon many
sections Of the tariff bill, so tnat as
the hours for adjournment approached
the paragraphs relating to agriculture
were nearly all disposed OF. Durihs
the afternoon, Mr.. Bacon entered upon
an extended discussion of the pro
posed increases over the rates OF the
house bill on bacon, hams, lard, Iresn
beef, ETC., and Mr.. Aldrich surprlseu
the senate by withdrawing the COM
mittee amendments saying that ne De
lieyed the house rates, although De
low those of the Dingley law rates.
were protective to those industries
Early in the day more than two
hours were consumed by debate on
the proposition to increase the duty
on lemons from one cent per pound
as provided by the Dinghy law 10
10 cents, and after an earnest oppo-
sition by Mr.. Root, the increase
recommended by the committee was
sustained, AZ to 3S. Among other Gu
ties affected by yesterdays action,
salt was reduced from IL to 10 cents
per 100 pounds in bags, and 10 to
cents in bulk.
Ale beer and porter We're given an
increase of duty from 40 to 40 cents
in bottles, etc, and from twenty TO
twenty-five cents per gallon in bulk.
The house duty on bacon, hams and
lard was restored upon motion Of Mr..
Aldrich, who withdrew the committee
increasing it. The effort
of Mr.. Bacon to reconsider the para
graph relating to fresh beef, mutton
etc. in order to decrease the duties
on those articles was defeated.
Washington. June with thel
adoption of a resolution providing for :
day and night session aggregating
ten hours daily, the senate heard the
suggestion of a policy for limiting
dilatory motions which caused earn
est protest from Mr.. Bacon and
others. The vice-president, basing
his action upon the precedent made in
JQ6 ldSJ CUuSIGSS NuSH TIC faiNil ~
Vreeland currency bill was under con-
sideration, held that the absence of a
quorum could not be called to the at
tention of the senate if the senator oc-
cupying the floor declined TO yield for
that purpose.
Mr.. Bacon declared that this was
one of the revolutionary rulings made
when the currency bill was under
consideration and that under it there
will be serious abuse of parliamen-
tary rules. He announced his inten-
ton to obtain a full consideration OF
this question by the Introduction OF
resolution to be considered by the
committee on rules.
A long speech dealing with the
pledge of the party leaders with re
spect to revision of the tariff was be
gun by Senator La Toilette yester-
day and will be continued today.
BY numerous quotations he main
tanned that no question could be
raised as to the pledge of the party
for revision downward and he de-
clared that before he should conclude
his speech he would demonstrate am
ply that on the whole the pending bill
placed the custom duties above the
rates of the Dingley law.

Seattle, Wash, June 2.-The Alas
ka-Yukon-Pacific exposition cost
$4,000, 900, and was built in two
years. The grouping of buildings is
much different than at other exposi-
tons. The structures are compactly
placed; there is no long, tiresome
walk from one exhibit to another.
Altering the main gates, two build
ings standing in a cluster OF trees to

where the administration of the ex-
position is centered and the other the
Auditorium, brick and steel building
of imposing architecture.
To the right, and across Puget
Plaza, is the fine arts palace This
building contains a valuable art dis
play loaned from famous collections
all over the world. A few steps lead to
the intersection of Olympic place and
Alaska avenue. To the right is view
down the pay streak" the exposition
amusement way, and to the left, a
front view of the auditorium and the
University of Washington in the
distance.
The "pay streak is also reached by
following a thoroughfare to the right,
just inside the main entrance gates,
and on past the rest headquarters
of the woman's league and the Ma
sonic, Swedish and other buildings.
Crossing the Olympic place and
walking to a point of vantage in front
of the man structure the beautiful PC
ture of the fair is unfolded. To the
right the Alaska building, to the left
the Hawaiian building, and on either
side of the cascade the oriental, for
eign, manufactures and agricultural
palaces In the distance are the mu-

and Japan, and, completing this pic
