Each Maritime Nation sent nn admiral In his flagship to witness thi review. They formed In line abreast of the Itrit- ish battleships, where they were favor ably placed to compare their own naval architecture with that of other nutiotis. Each nation sent Its bost available hlp and a magnificent display resulted. An Interesting feature of the lirltish fleet w us the training ships which com prised three- of the early Iron clads, a squadron of cruisers which usually win ter, with 11 training crew on board, In the West Indies or in some other warm latitude, and a fleet of training brigs which cruise- In the neighborhood of the Itrltlsh porta. The Itrltlsh fleet assembled June 22, and guis drawn up in four Iln extending from abreast of Portsmouth harbor to a dis tance of about 5 miles to the westward. Following tho precedent of former naval reviews there- was free access to the review ground up to the hour nnmcd for tho official Inspection, when, nil vessels with visitors anchored In their assigned positions and the tour of tho fleet waa commenced by the Prince of Wh., As usual on ucli occasions the Trinity yacht Irene with tho Elder Brothers on on board led tho way, the Victoria and AHert, with tlie Prince of Wale on on board.belr.g accompanied by the royal yncnts Osborne anit Alberta, the admir alty yacht V'nchnntress, the Cunard liner Campania with the members of the House of Lords and House of Commons on board, and a vessel conveying the foreign Am bassadors and their suits.

The changes In naval archi tecture which have taken place during the last fifty years have swept away all these wooden vessels, the classes to which they belonged no longer exist, the sole remain ing vessel which still takes the seas being the royal yacht "Victoria and Albert" which today flies the standard of the Prince of Wales at the naval relew. ProbalHy a more beautiful vessel of her class has never been launched nd the recent announcement that the model of a new steel yacht to replace her had been ubmltted to the Queen was not read with out regret. The next great review held at 3;ithead , wa. on July 17, lv7, when Her Majesty, accompanied by the Sultan of Turkey, reviewed a fleet of wooden vessels und Iron-clads (of which the most modern of the latter were the Minotaur, Achilles, Warrior, Black Trlnce, Btllerophon and Lord Clyde), under the command of Sir Thomas Pauley, Bnrt, K. C. B. On June 23, 173, the waters of Spithead were again the scene of a naval review this time In honor of His Majesty, the Shah of Persla. Or. August 13, I87S, Her Majesty Inspect to the fleet at Spithead, and on July 13, lv-7. on the occasion of the Queen's Jubilee, a large fleet was again assembled there and revlewe-1 by the sovereign. The most modern ships present on that occasion were the Colllngwood, Imper leuse and Conqueror. The fleet was com posed of 134 vessels, the personnjl of 20,200 officers and men. During the past decade enormous ad vance has been made both In the number and construction of the ships of the royal novy, and this cannot better be exempli fied than by the fact that of the 21 battle ships reviewed by the Prince of Wales, In behalf of the Queen today, four only took part In the Jubilee ceremony of 1SS7. whilst of the 43 cruisers present not one existed in 1SS7. Needless to say the 39 torpedo boat destroyers are of a class which has only been introduced during the past five years and which appears to be destined to play a very Important part In modern sea warfare.

Senator Petti- grew wti. overcome today In the midst of & violent speech In the senate. He hesitated, failed to enunciate his words, and then took hi. seat with his sentence unfinished. He revived quickly and left the senate soon after. Dr. Bain wa. summoned and said that the illness wa. caused by a clot of blood on the brain, but here would not be serious results If he was kept from excitement THE TARIFF BILL. Washington, June 28. Owing to Sena tor FettigreW. affliction the debate on the tariff bill came to a .udden halt in the senate this afternoon. The senate today started on Its second passage through the bill The purpose Is to dis pose of all the Items previously paaaea) over. The paragraphs considered were In the chemical and eortlienware schedule. and failed to elicit more than a technical debate. The senate finance committee has changed the provisions for a duty on hides so as to make It ad valorem Instead of specific, fixing the rate at 20 per cent Instead of one and a half cents per pound. The leather paragraph waa also altered so as to provide compensatory duties for the duty on hides. The republican tariff managers are hopeful of being able to complete the consideration of the tariff bill In the sen ate by next Wednesday sight a result which would bring It to an end In the senate In the present month. The dem ocratic leaders do not concede the pos sibility of an early conclusion. They generally place It a week further off, or about the 7th or Sth of July, but admit the end may come by Saturday of next week. Of the problems still unsolved by the re publicans, lead ore, coal, Iron ore, gyp sum, tallow and a few chemicals are giving the most trouble, but there Is no doubt of an adjustment on all of these which will hold the full party vote. Tne disposition Is to hold the rates at present fixed on lead and Iron ore. with the Intention of making any change, la the conference. The advocates of a high rate on lead ore, apparently, .are pre pared to meet their opponents half way in the conference and accept a ra'e of one and a fourth rents. The finance committee has practically decided to abandon the proposed tax on bank checks, which at one time was so favored considered, and to ngTee to on In crease of 44 cents a barrel In the beer tax and a change in the tobacco tax. There is some difficulty in the judiciary committee in agreeing upon the form of the anti-trust amendment but ail proba bilities point to the Incorporation of the Bettus proposition, directed specifically at the sugar trust, and of very little more. It Is expected the reciprocity amendment will be ready for presenta tion next Tuesday. t There will probably be an objection to the retention of the house provision for the continuance of the Hawaiian reci procity agreement on sugar, but the finance committee will favor such, an arrunreme-n,t, and the probabilities are that the republicans will support It solid in the pending action upon the annexa tion treaty. The question of a duty on tea is again receiving the attention of the committee. The Inclinations of the com ml tee are (till against the tax, and if kept In It will only be on account of the necessity for so doing.
