Two hours after the bill was taken all
were occupied by Mr. Galliuger in the de-
liver; of the preliminary chapters of a set
teri speech, which, he announced. in.
eluded a history of American tariff legit
lotion from the time the Pilgrim Fathers
first set foot on Plymouth rock. Three
Republican wanton—Messrs. Quay, Dolph
an Galliuger—now have portions of long
undelivered speeches in readiness to he
used in case the Republicans resolve upon
a last ditch light. Whethu' the Bepub
iicens will persevere in their present pol-
icy to defeat the bill by strategy or to al-
lowthe majority to pass the bill if they
can muster a aniiicient number of votes is
the unknown and undetermined quantity
in the senate question. _ ' . .
A small caloric of Republican senators.
including Messrs. Aldrich.Chandler, Hoar.
Lodge. Platt, Allison and Quay. have been
maneuvering the opposition up to this
time. Messrs. Teller, Du bole and other
western Republicans were known to be
out of sympathy with their eastern col-
leagues, but it was not until Wednesday
that their position was defined on the floor
0! the senate. \
Mr. Dubois of ldaho made a very signlfl:
cant speech, in which he entered a stron
protestagainst factitioue delay. Whilea -
firming his allegiance to the policy of pro
tectlon, be declared emphatically that the
interests of the country demanded that the
pending bill should be disposed of at the
earliest pessible moment.
Dubai- Strikes a Keynote.
That portion of Mr. Duboia' speech de-
manding immediate action upon the pend-
ing bill—either its passage or its defeat-
as the quickest means of restoring at least
temporary commercial prosperity. created
something of a sensation as indicating the
attitude of the for Western Republicans.
lie declared himself a firm believer in
the policy of protection, and said that
while the greatest prosperity had come to
us under the protective system he did not
believe there could be a permanent pros
parity until there was a reform in the
financial system, and it would be equally
fruitless to pass this bill ortodefeat it.
Until the mints are open. he said, to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver as
well as gold the falling prices and stagna-
tion of business will remain with us
“Either the passing or defeat of this
measure," he continued, "will be quickly
followed by a return of business toa great-
er or less extent. The settlement of this
question now and the adjournment of con-
gress will bring relief to the country and
employment to thousands of honest men
and women who are willing and anxious
to work and who are in actual distress.
We are now at the lowest ebb. Action oi
any kind, so that it is final. will be a wel:
come relief. The millions of invested cap
ital will no longer remain idle. it will
start thousands of industries as soon as it
knows what it can depend upon. This re
turned prosperity, however, will be short
lived. Within a short period many enter
prises will be abandoned. while in others
a reduction of wages and force will be in-
augurated, to become permanent and act
tied."
lie declared there could be no permanent
pronperity until there was 11 return to bl-
metallhuu. He claimed that the llepub
licans Would win the elections this fall.
and as a purely political proposition be ad:
vised the speedy {teasing of the pending
measure in order that the temporary proev
parity might subside and the country set
tie down to the condition of low wages
and contracted business that would sure
ly follow after the imaging relief had er-
pended itself.
By the time of the presidential election
the country would understand that it was
the currency question and not the tariil
that was the cause of the trouble.
in conclusion he said: "i beiisvell is the
duty of the senate in this great industrial
crisis. when hundreds of thousands are
suffering for the necessaries of life and salt
ing for employment, to pass whatever leg-
islation we intend to enact with such
promptueaa as is commemorate with a fair
discussion of the various schedules. The
quicker action is bad the better for the
country. in my judgment.
"1 do not "loan by this that i will favor

sion in this body should be free and un-
trammeled. but we should bear in mind at
all times that any notion. so it is final.will
bring work and bread to numbers of do
serving people who must remain idle and
hungry until our verdict is renrlered.
Speedy action now will sweep away the
clouds and mint which obscure the mum
of the people and enable them to in
with cleernese and accuracy that it is out

and rowed hastily across. Kelly inter-
cepted them and ordered all back to camp.

Great crowds of curious sightseers visit-
ed the burned section in the Roxbnry dis—
trict last night. Streams were still being
played on the ruins wherever heaps of
smoldering coal and debris were to be
found. A public meeting of citizens was
held in the People’s institute. Roxhury, to
liaise ways and means toward raising a
fund and a supply of household effects for
those who lost their all. Senator Cronan
presided. A relief committee to have en
tire charge of all contributions was ap-
pointed.
Five hundred dollars was subscribed at
the meeting. Manager John Graham of
the Graham Concert company reported
that arrangements had been made for his
relief concert to be held on May 27 in the
Boston theater. Union Park hall has been
offered to the homelessmnd offers of other
public buildings have been made. Last
night 135 women and children were quar-
tered in the classrooms of the Buggies
Street Baptist church. and 45 men slept in
the chapel. two buildings distant. A spe-
cial service, with addresses by prominent
Huston clergynwn, for the benefit of the
homeless was held in the church. The
edifice was crowded. and the collections
amounted to several hundred dollars. The
fund now amounts to over 81,000 in all.
The money collected at the time of the
Johnstown flood and not needed has been
appropriated by the city to go into the
relief fund.
The only fatality so for reported is n
armonths-old baby, who was suflocated in
