House Will Hold Night
Sessions This Week.
Flow Of 0ratoTy Over Tariff Bill
viii Soon Be Exhausted.
Senate, After Introduction OF New
Bills to Adjourn Until Thursday.

Washington, March 2S.-The activity
of Congress during the present week
will be confined almost exclusively TO
the consideration of the tariff. The
House will proceed with the considera-
ton of the Payne bill in general de-
bate and the hours of the daily sittings
will be extended, the sessions begin
ming in the morning at 10 o'clock and
ending at night at 1890, with an in
PERMISSION for dinner between and s..
The Senate will not be in a position
to take up the bill until it is passed
by the House. but the Senate commit
tee on finance will continue considera-
ton of the various schedules OF The
measure.
In the meantime, the Senate will
attempt no regular business beyond
the introduction of bills. The edict of
the steering committee that no legis-
lation beyond the tariff and the bill
providing for the 18th census shall be
undertaken, has gone forth. If report
cd to the Senate the census bill might
be considered during the week but the
census committee has given no atten-
ton to it.
Opinions differ as to how long the
discussion of the tariff bill by the
House may continue under the order
of general debate. but the greatest
latitudinarians do not extend the time
beyond the present week. and most
members predict that the end will be
reached by Wednesday. The long
hours proposed will rapidly exhaust
the general speeches and there will be
Il cessation of oratory under this order
as soon as a decision regarding the
procedure under the five minute rule
can be reached.
The Senate after the introduction Of
a number of new bills tomorrow, will
adjourn until Thursday.

ONE GREAT REPUBLIC
For Whole American Continent Is Pre-
diction Of Gov. Folk.

Asheville, n. c.. March 2S-That the
whole OF the American continent will
eventually become one great republic
under the government of what is now
the United States is the prediction
made by Former Governor Folk of
Missouri. in an interview here today.
Governor Falk declared that a clash
between the United States and Canada
is inevitable and that it will come
in the not distant future in his be-
lief. The great influx of Americans in
to the grain field and lumber region
of southwest Canada, each CARRYING
with him natural Allegiance to the
United States, is the heaven which, he
thinks. must eventually develop the
clash between the United States and
her sister country of the North.
The situation in Mexico also offers
food for serious thought. he said. The
natural antagonism of the Mexicans to
the American mining interests in that
country which has been kept under by
President Diaz he thinks. will break
out afresh at the death Of the Next
can President.

GENERAL SPORTING MATTERS
Harvard Severn
B0wd0in Three

Boston, March sS.-In a Swimming prac-
tjce game on Soldiers Field yesterday al
ternoon the Harvard baseball team sue
ceeded in putting it on Bowdoin by the
score of to 3. The Maine team is on
its way South for it's spring vacation,
and stopped over at Cambridge, where
they will remain until Monday for work
on the Crimson diamond.
The feature Of the game was the hne
pitching of Hicks who twirled for five
innings without allowing a single man to
reach first base, and striking out five OF
the u men who faced him. He TOOK
things exceedingly easy and at no time
had to extend himself.
The three runs scored by the visitors
came in the sixth inning. when DAVIS
was sent into the box. A base on balls,
"A single by Manter and two-base drive
by Brooks, together with two errors, net
ted three runs for the visitors.
The great fault to be found with the
Harvard team is that they could not bat.
Inning after inning they faced the Maine
box artist without being able TO solve his
cool delivery This twirler seemed to
have nothing that should fool the batters
at that Were it not for the wildness of
the opposing pitcher. Harvard would have
been fortunate to have won the game.

LUMBER AND HIDES.
Their Fate on Tariff Bill Awaits the
Final Conference Reports.

Washington March oS.-Thc fate of
lumber and hides in the proposed new
tariff law probably will not be decided
until the conference reports on the bill
have been approved by both the Senate
cles have been buffeted already more
tl.an those on any other class Of imports.
The clashes have occurred largely b.
tween the representatives of the East and
" est and there is a prospect of the diff
ferenCes becoming so sharp that the
Democrats from the Southern states may
determine the outcome.
The supporters of protection on hides
express hope of inducing the Senate com
mittee to recommend the continuance of
the DinGley rates. The Western senators
on the committee have proved particular
~ strong advocates of the restoration OF
the duty, while Senator Lodge is said to
stand almost alone in his campaign for
free hides, although it is conceded that lie
will receive some support from Eastern
colleagues.
Champions of the movement to take the
duty off lumber are not so sanguine of
success as the advocates of free hides SO
far as their contest in the committee is
concerned. The fight is being led by SEN
ator McCumber of North Dakota and he
is prepared to carry the fight to the floor
of the Senate. Regardless of the vote
OF the committee the advocates of free
lumber and free hides have been prom
ised separate votes on these questions in
the Senate and they are satisfied with
this concession.

Other Lines Will
Not Interfere.

Washington, March ga rate wal
among the trans continental railroads
probably will be averted by the execu-
tive officers of the trunk lines operating
from the ports Of Boston. New York
Philadelphia and Baltimore.
Several weeks ago, the Boston &c AL
bany made a cut Of one cent hundred
pounds on TRAFFIC westbound from the
port of Boston. This cut equalized the
differential which heretofore has been
enjoyed by the trunk lines operating OF
New York and Philadelphia. The cut
was met by the trunk lines. but was
followed Immediately by another cut OF
one cent hundred pounds on the same
kind of traffic by the Boston & Maine.
Operating out Of Boston. the Boston
l. Albany met the second reduction. and
it was expected that the New York Gen.
trail lines of which the Boston and AL
bany is a part would enter upon fight
with the Boston e. Maine for all west
bound imports. This has proved true
but the New York Central lines out OF
New York have not reduced their rates
to correspond with the Boston rate.
The traffic managers of the trunk
York. Philadelphia and Baltimore. after
considering carefully the entire situa-
ton presented the mater to the execu-
tive officials Of the various lines with a
request that they determine what should
be done The presidents Of the several
lines have conferred on the subject. and
it is understood at the Interstate Com
merce Commission that they will file
no traff1cs with the commission further
reducing the westbound rates on import
traffic
The amount of import traffic. west
bound, arriving at the port Of Boston is
inconsequent, compared with that which
arrives at the ports of New York, Phila-
delphia and Baltimore. To meet the
rate made by the Boston L. Maine would
mean the cutting off Of their noses to
spite their faces, as the traffic is now
being carried at as low a rate. they be-
lieve as can be made without loss.
1t is now regarded as likely that much
of the import traffic will be attracted
to the port Of Boston by the reduction
of one cent hundred pounds. 1t prac-
tcally has been agreed. therefore, to let
the Boston e. Maine and the Boston &
Albany fight out the matter without in
reference from the other trunk lines.
