New York. July 16. A dispatch to
tbe Tribune from London says: r.
The publication of Secretary Sher
man's dispatch on the Behring sea seal
qneetioa licits momentarily in the
English press the smoldering embers
of recent criticisms of American .diplo
matic methods. The text xt that dis
patch is not pleasant reading, as the
Pall Mall Gazette and other journals
frankly admit. . '(
As tbe matter stands the implication
that England has not acted with good
faith is considered a blow below the
belt. !'
Tbe petulant comments of the Lon
don press' today ought not, however,
to be taken too seriously. The action
of the foreign office has disclosed will
ingness on the part of the government
to discuss the question without ir
ritability.
This dispatch was one of the earli
est state papers presented by Ambas
sador Hay to the foreign office after
his arrival in London, and, while the
reply of Lord Salisbury was a refusal
to set aside the expert testimony of the
British agent employed in the case,
there was no indication that unfriend
ly feeling had been excited, either be
fore or after Mr. Foster's return to
London from St. Petersburg. The
negotiations have remained in progress
with an increasing probability that
tbe British government will ultimately
consent to send a representative to a
conference at Washington when Rus
sia and Japan have been drawn into it.
Don't neglect a cough because tbe
weather is pleasant: before the next
storm rolls around it may develop
into a serious difficulty-beyond repair.

subject.
At this point W. J. Bryan entered
the hall and was greeted with the
wildest enthusiasm. Black, of Cali
fornia, moved that three cheers be
given for Bryan, which the latter said
was out of order, but the cheers were
given nevertheless. .
Bryan in taking the chair said it
was a matter of great regret that he
was not able to be here earlier, but he
knew the congress had been ably pre
sided over by Messrs. Whitmore and
Craig. He said he was fully in accord
with the movements of this congress,
which represented the great empire of
the Weet. There were numerous
matters in which this section
was peculiarly interested and that
wa9 one of the reasons why the con
gress had met here for an interchange
of views on these matters, aU3 another
reason was that the' trans-Mississippi
states were part of this great nation
and , interested in everything of
national Importance. They had aright
to secure everytning which would tend
to their advaacement, but did not de
sire to do so at the expense of another
part of the coun try .

his guilt of this as well as other shock'

He admitted that bis rignt name

Washington, July 18. When the
republican conferees on tbe tariff ad
jour ned at 6 p. M. yesterday, tbe an
nouncement was made, on behalf of

ing to be held Monday.
The modification of the sugar ached'
ule still leaves the rate on pure sugar
testing 100 degrees 1.95 cents per
pound, which was the senate rate.
The differential on refined sugar is,
However, one-eigbtn of a cent per
pound, while the senate differential
was one-fifth. Tbe house also secured
the elimination of one-tenth of a cent
reduction allowed on Jaggory and
other low-grade sugars testing below
87 by the polariscope. It is claimed
that the increase on the higher grades
of sagar. which will result from the
increase of the polariscope gradation
advance, will add materially to tbe
protection to the beet-sugar industry.
It is estimated that the changes in
the sugar schedule will raise about
$2,000,000 additional revenue.
Following aie among the important
changes made in other schedules:
Hides are placed at 15 per cent ad
valorem, In place of 20 per cent fixed
by the senate.
Wool, as heretofore sent out; first-
class, II cents per pound, second class,
12 cents per pound; third class, 4 cents
on that below 12 cents per pound in
value, and 8 cents on that above 12
cents in value. These rates on third
class was the result of an agreement
between the woolgrowers and the car
pet manufactures.
Lead ore, li cents per pound.
Pig lead, 2i cents, the senate rates.
Iron ore, as fixed by the senate.
Coal, bituminous, 67 cents per ton.
Tbe senate rate on borax was also
sustained.
The senate rates on all fruits were
retained, including 1 cent per pound
on oranges, lemons, limes, etc.
On walnuts, tbe house rate of 3 cents
per pound was restored, tbe senate
having lowered this rate to 2t cents.
Whlte pine lumber was restored to
the house classification, and tbe booae
rate of f2 per 1000 feet instead, of the:
senate rate of $1, . :
The reciprocity clause baa been
transformed Into a modification of both
the house and senate schedules that
is, the number of articles which can
be used as a basis for reciprocity agree
ments has been increased, but tbe
president's option as to the rates and
the ratification of treaties by the sen
ate, which was the main feature of the
senate .provision, has been rejected.
One of the biggest victories won by
the house was in tbe restoration to the
dutiable list of burlaps, jute and jute
bagging, cotton bagging, gunny sacks,
floor matting and cotton ties, whloh the
senate placed on the free list. While re
stored to the dutiable list, however, the
rates were lower than they have ever
been on this class of articles.

SULTAN'S CHANGE OF FBOMT.
It Was Dae

Fear.
William's
Constantinople. July 17. The
announcement by Tcwfik Pasha to the
ambassadors that tbe sultao has agreed
to the principle of their demands, and
was prepared to accept their views rn
the conditions of peace was due to a
message sent him prior to the meeting
that if tbe porte did not reply satis
factorily, the ambassadors would adopt
an important decision with regard to
their attitude toward Turkey. Tewfilc
Pasba turned up at the last moment,
aud announced that he had been in
structed to accept the proposals of tbe
powers.
This change of front is now under
stood to be the result of the action of
Germany. The reply of the emperor
to the sultan's personal note wag am
biguous, and induced him to believe
that Germany would support him.
When, however, Germany found that
the powers were resolved on coercion,
then Emperor William, desiring to
prevent - such an eventuality, in
structed his ambassador to go to the
palace and state distinctly that the
Turkish government must conform
absolutely to the decisions ot the
powers.

An Important Decision A Baetlng National
National guardsmen will be inter
ested in the following, relating to ar
rest of members of companies who re
fuse to pay fines imposed for non-attendance
at drills. Last week in
Oregon City Judge Hayes heard argu
ment on the petition of Richard N.
Bradley for a writ of habeas corpus to
release him from serving three days In .
jail for falling to pay fines to the
militia for non-attendance at drills.
The petition was based on the grounds
of technical error as to tbe execution
issued by the justice and unconstitu
tionality of the statute under which
the proceedings were taken. It was
argued that the law violated the pro
visions of tbe constitution against Im
prisonment for civil debt, and against
depriving a person of liberty except on
a trial before a Jury. The state took
the ground that the legislature had a
right to give to the military court of
discipline tbe power to Impose floes
for infraction of dlsolpllne, and to
make it the duty of tbe civil court to
collect the' fines thus Imposed or
punish the offenders in case of failure
to collect. The court rendered ade
clslon granting the writ, on the ground
tbat tbe law is unconstitutional.
The deceslon of Judge Hayes, if sup
ported by the supreme court, will place '
company commanders in a position
aiffereot from that now occupied. At
present, they have the fear of arrest to
use as a means of compelling their
men to attend drills and pay fines tor
non-attendance. It seems probable'
that the national ' guard officers will
Cake tepe to have tbe constitution
ality of tbe law tested before the
supreme court.
