REMBRANDT'S "MILL" SOLD
Belief That American Offer OF
100000 Has Been Taken.
fRy cable 10 The Tribune. ]

London. Feb. 21.-Once again II is re-
ported that the Marquis Of LansdoWne
has sold his famous Rembrandt land
scape. The Mill" There was per-
sstent rumor nearly two years ago that
this art treasure was about to be sold.
and the story has been more than once
revived since that time. THE Stand
ard" believes, however, that an offer OF
100000 Low made by an American COL
lector is a definite one, and that it VIII
probably he accepted.
The history OF the picture is interest
ing. like many other art treasures In
England. II was part Of the wreckage
OF tho French Revolution. and was for
merly in the Orl ans gallery, but on the
dispersal of that famous collection IN
1I9S il was bought by an English col
lcctor W. Smith. for the small sum OF
800. 1t passed into The Fitz-Maurice
collection for 1850. and has hung at
Bowood for more than century.

SPANISH MINISTRYS PERIL
An Uncompromising Note from
Vatican Expected To- day.

Madrid. Feb. 27.-The religious ques-
tion has again assumed prominence and
threatens the existence of the ministry.
which will be subjected at an early date
to a furious attack by the Conserva-
tives.
The Vatican has sent another note to
the administration, and this is expected
TO reach here tomorrow. The text, 1t
is understood, Is more uncompromising
than ever. making impossible all hope
Of an agreement. The ministers will
meet on Wednesday to examine the
text of the associations bill. 1t is
rumored that the Minister of Finance.
who is a moderate Liberal. may not ap-
prove the BILL and consequently will
force a ministerial crisis.
1t is supposed that the tone Of the
Vatican note is due to assurances from
certain influential elements that the
religious question will cause the fall Of
the ministry.

Conlon said Frank shouted.
When Henry Keeck saw Conlon they
exchanged stories of what had occurred,
and Henry learned OF his brothers
threat. Conlon arranged then to go
home with Henry and try TO pacify
Frank.
Conlon went to the house last evening
and found Frank lying on his bed with
a wet handkerchief on his head. Frank
spoke quietly enough and agreed that
Henry was a good fellow. He seemed
sorry for the mornings affair.
Conlon's report led Henry to think all
was we'll and they went together 10
Franks room. Frank still lay on the
bed.
Henry walked to the bed with his hand
out, saying: Frank, you and l are
brothers and should not quarrel. Let the

PRESIDENT REJECTS
|NSURGENT OFFER
Insists That Senate Must Pass
Reciprocity Agreement or Take
Chances of Extra Session.
PROGRESSIVES IN QUANDARY
They Fail in Their Efforts to
Make a Deal with the Regular
Republicans to Save Tariff
Board Bill.
From The Tribune Bureau. !

Washington. Feb. 27--Into tho maze
"a legislative conflicts and factional anil
mosities growing constantly more bitter
in the upper house Of Congress the Re-
publican insurgents came this morning
with proposition which for a time gave
promise of removing all difficulties and
:. yerting the necessity Of an extra ses-
sion.
If the cordial cooperation of those
Senator's who, ostensibly are supporting
the administration in the Canadian reel
procity proposition could be secured.
this scheme might yet achieve the pur-
pose for which 1t was designed. but so
weak -kneed and timorous is the support
of the administration that there Is little
prospect Of its adoption.
The insurgents, realizing that they
were beaten in their opposition to Sem
ator Lorimer, and that there was much
to be said I'm support OF the propriety Of
permitting a vote on his case at this scs-
sion. proposed to capitalize his strength.
so TO speak, and make It the means of
rassing both the reciprocity resolution
and the tariff board bill. They suggest
cd that the regular Republicans unite
with the insurgents and serve informal
notice on Senator Bailey. as head Of the
Lorimer forces, that they would lot per-
nit vote on the Lorimer case at this
session unless Mr.. Bailey and his asso-
ciates would consent to allow both the
reciprocity resolution and the tariff
board bill to be voted on.
1t is of course, obvious to the friends
Of Mr.. Lorimer that if action on his
case is deferred until after March he
will be unseated. a fact which oonsti-
tutes a special incentive to them to make
every effort 10 secure a vote this week.
Mr. Bailey, Il will be recalled, is tho
chief opponent of a vote on the Tariff
Board bill. The insurgents are not
especially agreeable To vote on the
reciprocity agreement but would consent
to It If they could secure the passage ot
the Tariff Board measure. for which they
would claim the credit.
In their estimation the supporters ot
Mr.. Lorimer could dissuade Senator's
Hale and Hepburn from objecting To
vote on the other two measures, some
thing which no ono else can do. and In
this wav all the essential business Of this
Congress could be disposed Of by noon Of
next Saturday.
