'PRINTING'THE TARIFF BILL.

No Business of Importance Was Transacted
on the Last Day by Either Senate
or Mouse—Chairmanwmon's
' Opinion of ms Measure. A

,N --‘ _

WASHINGTON, Aug. lid—The new tarlfl
act was sent from the White House to the
state department at half past 9 o’clock this
-- morning, where it will be carefully scan-
ned and then sent to the government
{tinting office and printed in the form of
an act. The work of putting the new tar-
ifl‘ law into effect: now devolves on the
collectors customs of the several ports
and on in, 51. venue officers, and un-
til they mtet di oulties" in its adminis-
tration little will remain to, be done by
the treasury department, the circulars of
yesterday having given instructions on
the very few points requiring immediate
attention. The treasury has not yet re-
ceived reports showing the rush of the
last day to get tho whisky tax paid in
advance of- the increase of the rate. Tues-
day is always an off day as respectsmeports
of internal receipts, and today’s statement
was simply a normal one, the treasury
statement of internal revenue receipts be-
ing only $351,472.

' In the Senate.

The last day of the second session of the
Fifty-third congress was attended by just
a score of senators, but by a large con-
course of people, who packed the galleries
to their fullest capacity. Most of those
who were in the galleries were ladies.
There were also very many visiting
Knights of Pythias.

The diplomatic gallery was the only
one which was not occupied. Even the
aisles of the public galleries and the door-
way swarmed with visitors. On the floor
there was an air of relief at the approach;
ing close of the session visible on the faces
and in the demeanor of those who have
been kept at their posts so long. Chaplain
McCarthy, in a long prayer. included not
only the customary ofllcers of the govern-
ment, the president and vice president
and senators, but even the senate pages
and the venerable Isaac Bassett in his ap-
peal for grace.

All political differences and party bick-
erings were laid aside for the time being,
. and those who a few weeks ago were hurl-
ing bitter anathemas at each other were
today laughing and joking with each
other in the friendliest possible manner.
A message was received from the house
immediately after the reading of yester-
day's journal, and then Mr. Ransom
(Dem.. N. C.) offered the-customary reso-
lution for the appointment of a commit-
tee of the senate to act with a similar
committee of the house 'to wait upon the
president and inform him that unless he
had some further communication to make
the tw0 houses were ready to adjourn.
The resolution was agreed to, and the
vice president appointed Mr. Ransom
, (Dem., N. C.) and Mr. Manderson (Rep,

Nob.) a committee on the part of the sen-
ate. .

N 0 other business of any importance
was transacted, and at 12:15 p. m. a re-
cess was taken until 12:45.

At 12:45 p. m. the vice president recs--
cended his dais and declared that the sen-
ate was again fn session. A message was
received from the house announcing the
‘death of Representative George B. Shaw
(Wis. ). g

In the absence of the two Wisconsin
senators Mr. White offered the customary
resolutions of regret, and in accordance
with these resolutions the vice president
appointed Senators Mitchell (Wis. ), Cul-
lom, Davis, Roach and Kyle to attend the
funeral.

At 12:55 a further recess was taken un-
til 1:50 p. m.

Promptly at 2 o’clock the senate was
declared adjourned sine die.

In the House.

Today the galleries of the house were
packed to overflowing with visiting Pyth-
ians and their families, drawn thither to
witness the closing scenes of the dying
session, which was to expire at 2 o’clock.
The attendance on the floor was. very
light, however, the great majority of the
members having already gone to their
homes.

The resignation of Representative
Oates, recently elected governor of Ala-
bama, to' take effect Dec. 3, was laid be-
fore the house. In accordance with the
usual custom Mr. Wilson (Dem., W. Va.)
offered a resolution, which was adopted
without division, for the appointment of
a committee of three members of the
house to meet a similar committee of the
senate and wait on the"presidcnt and in-
form him that congress was ready to ad-
journ and ascertain if he had any further
communication to make. The speaker ap-
pointed Messrs. Wilson (Dem., W. Va. ),
Holman (Dem., Ind.) and Hepburn (Rep,
Ia. ).

The speaker also appointed a commit-
tee to investigate the Ford’s theater disas-
ter.

The resolution to print the comparisons
of the new tariff law with the present law
and the Wilson bill as it passed the house
was then called up by Mr. Richardson
(Dem., Tenn. ). but when the vote was
taken—resulting, yeas, 71: nays 3—Mr-
Johnson (Dem., O.) renewed his opposi-
tion to it and made the point of no quo-
‘ rum. As it was plainly apparent that a
quorum could not be mustered, appeals
were made from all sides to induce Mr.
Johnson to withdraw his point of order,
but. Mr. Johnson was unyielding. The
Ohio free trader and the tall Tennessecan
took their places as tellers, and the few
mmnbcrs pin-sent sauntcred up and were
(unwed u:..'; then loungel about, chatting
in groups and saying their farewells. The
crowded galleries watched the listlessness
on the floor in wonderment. The speaker
signed a. fcw belated bills, rushed over
from ' the senate. and occasionally. the
monotony of “Railing for a quoriun that
would not come was broken by the an-
ueueselucpt of a messes? from. the senate

on some small resolution or harm unim-
portant matter.
1“ r. English In Reserve.

Mr. English (Dem., N. J.), the vener-
able author of “Ben Bolt,” stood in the
area in front of the speaker's chair pre-
pared to enter an objection to business by
unanimous consent in case Mr. Johnson
relented. Mr. English was balked in an
eflort to pass an appropriation for apub-
lic building for Petersen, N. J., a few
days ago, and was disposed to takeout his
revenge on any and everything legislative

that showed its head. , ~

. Mr- Jonson’s objection to the resolution
was that 'the comparison" ropos‘ed"t'0 be
under the di-
rection of Senator Gorman and was, 8
claimed, misleading in certain particulars.

Promptly at 2 o’clock the house was
declared adjourned sine die.

Chairman Wilson on the Turin:

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29;—Cllairman
Wilson left today for West Virginia to be
present at the congressional convention of
his district tomorrow. His renomin‘ation
ls conceded, as ho is without opposition.
He will address the convention, and his
speech will be his first utterance outside
of congress on the tariff act. Mr. Wilson
said today: “The outlook for genuine tar-
iff reform is very bright. We have taken
the first step, and that is always the hard-
est, and having done so much it will be
easy to proceed to a full realization of tar-
ifl reform. It will now come about al-
most automatically once the machinery is
set in motion. ”

The President’s Letter.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.—The few sena-
tors at the capitol today refused to express
any opinion for publication on the letter
of President Cleveland to Mr. Catchings.
The Democratic senators said they had
nothing to say, but they seemed to feel
that it was aimed at them. The Repub-
licans said there seemed to be no neces-
sity at present for them to get into this
fight in the ranks of their opponents, and
they would not be quoted regarding it.

-The Vice President Does the Honors.

WASHINGTON, Aug.- 29.——Just before the
meetin of the senate today the room 01
Vice resident Stevenson was crowded
with K. of P. visitors, who thronged the
capitol. Mr. Stevenson pointed out all
the interesting objects in the room and
told some pleasing anecdotes. He was
kept busy up to the time the senate met
writing his autograph for the visitors.

The Texas to Be Inspected.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-—When .the bat
tleship Texas was docked at the Norfolk
navy yard recently, it was found that one
of her propeller blades was broken. Dur-
ing her dock trial a few months ago the
vessel fouledsa small schooner and cut a
great hole in her with her propeller. So a
naval board has been appointed to inspect
the vessel and to report particularly.

custom House Broker-3’ Licenses.
WASHINGTON, Aug. .29.-—The treasury
department has given notice that all cus-
tom house brokers who apply for a license
under the newtarifl bill will be recognized
as such brokers until their applications

have been examined and passed upon.

One Man Killed and Three Seriously
\Vounded In Kentucky.
WINCHESTER, Ky., Aug. 29.——At a

‘Democratic primary at Quicksand one

man was killed, three probably fatally
wounded and several slightly injured.
For a long time bud blood has existed be-
tween the Tharps and Days, prominent
families. Oliver Tharp and his son, Will
Tharp, and three of the Day brothers
met at Quicksand for opposing factions.

.Will Tharp and one of the“ Day brothers

gotinto a violent quarrel; ,Day drew his
pistol, and just as he was about to fire
Oliver Tharp stepped : between Day and

heart. Will Tharp, who had drawn his
pistol, then shot Day through the breast,
mortally wounding him. Another of the
Day brothers and Will Tharp were shot
in the side and are not expected to live.

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, Aug. 29.-—S~tatistics
issued by the adjutant general show that
since July 22, 1877. there have been 28
riots in Illinois calling out the militia.
Two hundred and eighty days’ service
was performed by 18,459 militiamen, the
largest number being at Chicago from
.July 16 to Aug. 7, mill—4,234 men. The
appropriation this year for the militia
was $129,000. The shortage is $400, 000.

Talk of Calling the Strike Ofl‘.

CHICAGO, Aug. 29. —A mass meeting of
the/Pullman strikers was held at Turner
hall, Kensington, to discuss the advisabil—
ity of calling ofl the strike. No vote was
taken, but the local unions were instruct-
ed to vote for a delegate to meet with the
central committee and decide the matter.
There has beena growing feeling that it
was useless to longer fight the Pullman
company while families .were starving.

A Monument Carried Ofl‘.

BERLIN, Aug. 29.—-—The night before the
unveiling of the Ludwig monument at
Murnau, Upper Bavaria, the statue of the
regent, Prince Lultpold, in Wittelsback

The local authoriticshave been investi-
gating the matter, but they have not been
able to find a clew to those who were on-
gaged in the conspiracy.

The Reported llassacregof Their Gar-
rison at Timbuktu.

THREE DAYS’ HARD FIGHTING

A Disastrous Encounter In Which the
Bearers of the Tricolor Were Liter-
ally Cut to Pieces—Their For.

mer Similar Experience. ~-.'

PARIS, Aug. 29.—Most startling news,
has reached here from Senegal, west Af-
rica. According to a report received at
St. Louis, the French garrison at Tim-
buktu. after three days’ desperate fight-
ing with the Tauregs and other hostile

. tribes which have been infesting that city

for a long time past, made a sortie and
were cut to pieces by the Arabs. This
news from Senegal has caused consterna-
tion in many circles as. if true, it is the
second serious disaster the French have
met with in the vicinity of Timbuktu
since that important Sudanese town was
occupied by them early during the pres-
ent year.

A French column. commanded by Colo-
nel Bonnier, arrived at Timbuktu on
Jan. 10, and two days later a detachment
of troops, headed by the colonel and ac-
companied by Commandant Hugueny and
the entire staff, started out on a reconnoi—
tering expedition, leaving Captain Phil-
lippe as senior captain in charge of the post
at Timbuktu.

This French detachment, in some man-
ner never fully explained, was surprised,
asleep in camp,~ at Dougoi, two hours’
march north of Goondiam and three days’
march from Timbuktu.

The Arabs, chiefly Tauregs, mounted
and on foot and armed with lances and
knives, entered the French camp by sev-
eral sides during the darkest hours of early
morning and overturned the stacked arms
in front of tho sharpshooters, who, when
aroused, were unable to seize their rifles
in time to defend themselves successfully.

Nearly All M assacred.

The Arabs massacred nearly the entire
detachment, consisting of the Fifth and
Eleventh companies of Sudanese sharp-
shooters.

A French ofiicer, Captain N igotte,
though seriously wounded in the head,
succeeded in escaping to a platoon of sol-
diers left some yards behind the main
camp to guard some captured flocks. This
platoon was under the command of Lien-
tenant Sarda. ,It retreated to Timbuktu,
bringing with it a few wounded men who
had escaped the massacre at Dougoi.

The Tauregs pursued the retreating sol-
diers and practically invested Timbuktu,
which Captain Phillippe made haste to de-
fend, pendlng the arrival of re-enforce-
Inents. '

It was stated that the French lost at
Dougol nine officers, tw'o European ser-
geants, an interpreter and one sergeant,
six corporals and 61 native sharpshooters.

For the defense of Timbuktu Captain
Phllllppe had 300 rifles and six cannon,
but this was a very small force with
which to hold a town of about 12,000 pep-
ulation, situated amid hot, moving sands
on the verge of a morass and having a
walled lnclosure about three miles in cir-‘
cumi'crence.

But a column commanded by Colonel
Joilre was on its way to re-enforce the
French at Timbuktu, and having sent
messengers to the colonel and communi-
cated with the commanders of the French
flotilla on the Niger rchr the captain
made the bust disposal possible of ~his

small force, and, thanks to the co-opcra- '

tion of the populace of Timbuktu, he

succeeded in holding that place until th

J oflre column arrived. .
The Village Captured.

The second or J otfre column was com-
posed of a company and a half of sharp-
shooters, a squadron of Spahis (splendid
African cavalry), 30 auxiliary Spahis and
two guns. It included also the horses,
mules, drivers, etc», of the first column.
It followed the land route by Sansandig,
Moninpe, Nampaia, Lere, Soumpe and
Goondiam and met with serlous opposition
during its advance. _

On J an. 20 a company of sharpshooters
marched on Niafounke, supported by cav-
alry and artillery. They were eventually
confronted by two kilometers of a swamp,
which surrounded the village, in front of
which 400 warriors were drawn up in bat»
tle array.

After the first shots had been exchanged
the warriors charged the French force.
The latter in less than 15 minutes killed
over 100 of the African warriors. The
others were in flight, and the village was
captured without any loss on the part of
the J ofire column. ,

Several such engagements toOk place,
cannon and cavalry being repeatedly
called into use. On Feb. 2 the advance

’flotilla arrived at Goondiam and met the

advance guard of the J oflre column, and
on Feb. 12 the latter reached Timbuktu.
» It is, in all probability, part of the force
of Captain Pllllllppe and Colonel Joflre
which has, according to the advices from
Senegal, been out to pieces by the Arabs.
It is believed that the garrison of Tim-
buktu has, since the Jcflre column ar-
rived there, been againre-enforced.

That Ill Fated Dutch Expedition.

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 29.—-The defeat of
the Dutch troops sent to punish the rajah
of the island of Lombok, not far from
Java, seems to have been more serious
than at first supposed. It is new asserted
that 164 Dutch soldiers and l l officers, in-
cluding General VanHam, were killed by
the natives. In addition, many of the sol-
diers were wounded. The Dutch resident
at Lombok succeeded in escaping.

'HIS RIDIcULoUS POMPOSITY.‘_ 1

 

United States and; British Cruisers Took'
Turns Protecting Life at Port Limon ,
and Attempting to Overhaul
Ships lVlth Refugees.

4‘3 NEW YORK, Aug. 29.—The steamship
-‘ lcno, from Central America and rWest
Indian ports, reached this port today and
docked at the foot of Roctorlstrect. She

was at Colon and Port Limon'when the _.
trouble between the residents and the -

Nicaraguan government ‘ occurred, and
’anlong'her passengers frOrn wart'Lilnon
to Kingston were the _MoSI1uito chief,
Clarence, and half a hundred refugees.
They. had‘ escaped from ,Blueflelds on
board the British cruiser Mohawk, which,
in conjunction with the~_United States
gunboat Marblchead, has been protecting
the foreign residents of the Mosquito ter-

ritory. . ,

Chief Clarence and his followers were
transferred to Jamaica at the expense of
the British government.

On board the Alene the Mosquito chief
proved a Sflill'CC of; interest and much
amusement to the other passengers.

( lavenme’v. l:_l<liculous Airs.

Chief Clarence, according to the story
of one of tho .‘(cw York passengers on the
ship, would strut about the saloon deck
arrayed in gay attire made up of a navy
officer’s trousers and an army officer’s
coat. He is described by the passenger as
being a young - man of about 20, with a
very dark skin and a pronounced negro
type of face, and possessed of more than
the average intelligence of the natives of
the Mosquito coast.

While the United States ship Marble-
head was at Port Limon with English
and Alnerican'refugees on board the Brit-
ish cruiser Mohawk ran down the coast,
chasing a schooner on which were sup-
posed to be some refugees made prisoners
by the Nicaraguan government.

The Mohawk overhauled three coasting
vessels and boarded them, but did not find
any prisoners. The Mohawk then return-
This was after the
Nicaraguans had arrested. the American
and British representatives and mer-
chants. 4 -

The refugees were transferred item the
United_States gunboatvto the Mohawk and
were sent to Jamaica by the Alene, as
above stated.

It was the opinion of theofiicers and
passengers of the Alene that but for the
prompt measures taken by the command-
er of the two war vessels all would have
been lost. as the Nicaraguan officials
showed a disposition to deal with those
whoopposed them in the customary Con-

tral American manner—a more form of .

trial, and then the machete or rifle ball
mode of execution.

_ .“They have a rapid transit method of
dealing with political prisoners down
there,” said one of the passengers on the
Alone. "The Nicaraguan soldiers are very
"little better than the Indians. They are
’very handy with the machete and can lop
off the head of an enemy at one blow.
,They do not stand oii ceremony and would
as soon kill a man as they would eat their
breakfast. The only thing that restrained
them was the presence of the men-of-war
and the fear of the consequences should
any, extreme measures be resorted to by
them.”

'Anothcr passenger said that when the
Marblchead left Bluefields for Colon to
telegraph to Washington the IMohawk
kept watch over the foreign residents, and.
when the Mohawk went for’ coal or to
communicate with the British admiralty

from Port Limon the Marblohead did

guard duty.

To the protection 'of the men-of—warp

hosaid, the white residents of Blueflelds
owe: hmr safety, for the chamguans
seemed to consider all White men their
enemies. .
