Six Re- publicans Voted Against the Bill and One Demo- erat, Voted for It. The Vote was Yeas 42, Nays 31. WASHINGTON, March 17.—After pro- longed debate the Senate to-day passed the ship subsidy bill, the final vote ou the measure being 42 to 31. Senators Allison and Dolliver,of Iowa,Spooner and Quarles, of Wisconsin, and Proctor and Dillingbam, of Vermont, Republicans, voted against final passage of the bill and Senator Mec- Laurin, of South Carolina, voted for it. Some amendments to the bill were adopted but they were all agieeable to those in charge of the measure, friends of the bill voting down all other amendments. With the exception of an amendment offered by Mr. Frye, limiting the time of the opera- tion of contracts made under the provisions of the bill to July 1st, 1902, and providing that the amount of the expenditure under the mail subsidy paragraph shall not at any time exceed $8,000,000, annually, none of the amendments agreed to materially affected the bill as it was reported from the commerce committee. The voting upon amendments began at 3 o'clock and such a flood of them was offer- ed that a final vote on the bill, as amend- ed, was not reached until just before 6 o’clock. Amendments offered by Mr. Vest, of Missouri, providing for ‘‘Free ships and for the application of the provisions of the anti-trust law to the shipping industry’’ were 1ejected, as was the amendment pre- pared by Mr. Patterson, of Colorado, pro- viding that no Chinese person should be a member of the crew of the subsidized ves- sel. Mr. Pettus, of Alabama, offered a reso- lution providing that the total expenditure under the bill should not exceed $9,000,- 000 any one year. 1t was adopted in com- mittee of the whole, but later in the Sen- _ ate was rejected. The Senate agreed to an amendment, offered by Mr. Spooner, providing that Congress should have power to amend or repeal the act, without impairing any con- tract made under its authority. Mr. Han- na of Ohio, offered,and the Senate adopted, three amendments applying directly to the acquisition by J. Pierpont Morgan and his associates of the Leyland line of British ships. They provide that no foreign-built ship shall participate in the subsidy; that nothing in the act shall be construed to prevent American citizens or corporations from holding or operating foreign ships in the ocean-carrying trade, and that no for- eign-built ship of ary line thus acquired by American citizens shall be admitted hereafter to American registry. New Banknotes Prepared. Beauty of Design and Convenience in Handling. Their Features. WASHINGTON, March 17.—The Comp- troller issued to-day the first delivery of new national bank notes, known as the series of 1902. The notes will be issued only to banks organized since January 1, 1902, and those extending or re-extending their charters. These notes are a radical departure in de- sign, and are considered a great improve- ment. The backs have an artistic Vignette in green. The faces bear portraits of Pres- ident Harrison for the $5 note, President McKinley for the $10, Secretary McCalloch for the $20, Secretary Sherman for the $50 and Comptroller of the Currency John J. Knox for the $100. To facilitate assorting the charter num- hers with a system of letters in hroad-face type designating the geographical division in which the bank is located, has been devised as follows: Letter N, New England States; E, Eastern States; M, Middle States; 8S, Southern States; W, Western States, and P, Pacific States. The Comptroller saves hank correspon- dence by announcing that it will be im- possible to change designs for banks which have already had their notes prepared. Great Boston Strike is Over. The Boston, March 17.—The great strike of last week, involving 20,000 union men, was completely wiped out to-day when prac- tically every man went back to his work under conditions butslightly changed from those existing when the trouble began. To-night the only incident in the labor gitnation is the strike of seventy-five long- shoremen at the Clyde live wharves. This is an independent strike brought about by two disgruntled workmen. At the freight sheds of the railronds the number of men left without immediate employment wa less than 500, : _was surrender... .. Henry Was A Tired Man. When He Finally Boarded the Deutschiand at New- York He Slept Almost Continuously for Forty-Eight Hours, Except for the Time He Appeared for His Meals or to Take Short Walks on the Bridge. CHERBOURG, France, March 17.—The arrangements made by Emperor William for the reception of Prince Henry, when the latter arrives at Cuxhaven, were®com- municated to the Frince after the Deutsch- land left Plymouth. Prince Henry ex- pressed himself as greatly pleased there- with. He interprets the elaborate plans of Emperer Willlam as an expression of his majesty’s complete satisfaction at the suc- cess of the Prince’s American trip. Prince Henry says he was so tired when he finally boarded the Deutcshland at New York that he slept almost continuously for forty-eight hours, except for the time he appeared for his meals or to take short walks on the bridge. He says he never worked so hard in his life’ as when he was in the United States; that he never changed his uniforms so many times a day or faced a succession of situations requiring such alertness and a certain initiative on his part They were situations which could not be met with merely formal behavior or the Me- chanical execution of a routine program. While eonversing with members of his suite, Prince Henry has alluded to many things in connection with his trip. He has mentioned nothing more frequently than that no single unpleasant incident occurred in the United States. Ideas, | scenes were crowded upon him too rapidly for proper appreciation at the moment, perbaps, but as Prince Henry himself said: ‘‘We have accumulated material to think ahout for months to come.”’ When one of ns party asked him what had impressed him most, the Prince re- plied that the great, orderly and cheerful crowds had been his most continuous topics of interest and would probably always be one of his vivid impressions. The Prince said he saw crowds out of doors and indoors, faces of men and women, with here and there a powerful, a beauti- ful, ora spiritual face. He said his regret, if he dared to say he had any, was that he could not know some of those people bet- ter. Methuen Saw Them. ——— | Identified the Boer's Advance When Three Miles Away. LONDON, March 18.—Describing the dis- aster to General Methuen, the Pretoria correspondent of the Slandard repeats the details already given in Lord Kitchener’s despatches and adds that General Methuen identified the Boer advance when it was three miles distant. The correspondent praises the gallantry of the Boers, who, he says, charged heed- less of the hot fire into their lines, and contrasts the cool steadiness of the British infantry supporting the guns, when the muzzles of the Boer guns were upon them. After placing the convoys in the kraal in charge of Major Paris, continues the cor- respondent, General Methuen galloped back to the guns on the right. He en- conraged his men by voice and gesture and became a conspicuous target for the Boer marksmen, who concentrated their fire on him ag he rode from point to point. When commandant Colliers unmasked a couple of fifteen-pounders and began shell- ing the kraal, that position became hope- less and it would bave been, under the cir- cumstances, nothing short of madness to look for any favorable issue, The only means of preventing unavailing loss of life Granger Rhone’s Canvass. Says He Had a Right to Get Sentiment Concerning Governorship: + . Leonard Rhone, for years Worthy Master of the Pennsylvania State Grange, Patrons of Husbandry, in a statement issued from Harrisburg Friday night, resents the as- sertion of present Worthy Master Hill and secretary of the cxecutive committee Oster that he had no right as a member of the executive committee to canvass the local Granges to obtain their sentiment on the gubernatorial candidates. He says it was merely the following out of a custom observed in the past and adds : ‘In response to these inquiries nearly 500 local Grange organizations from all parts of the State bave voluntarily replied in be- half of the Republican Members, which was their privilege. that 420 local Granges have declared for former Lieutenant-Gov- ernor L. A. Watres; 13 for Lieutenant- Governor J. P. 8. Gobin; 4 for Attorney- General J. P. Elkin; 2 for J. C. Sibley, and 1 for T. M. Mahon. . : ‘In behalf of the Democratic members 415 local Granges have declared for ex- Governor Robert E. Pattison; 7 for ex- Lieutenant-Governor Chauncey Black; 3 for J. Henry Cochran; 2 for ex-Judge Gor- don; 1 for Elisha A. Coray.”’ Call to Quay Defeat. WASHINGTON, March 19.-—It is stated here to-night that as a result of the confer- ference in Philadelphia yesterdav between Governor Stone, Attorney General Elkin and Insurance Commissioner Durham, and the latter consultation here last night be- tween Mr. Durham and Senator Penrose, Senator Quay has been asked to come home from Florida at once and he will arrive here within afew days. It is claimed that both the Penrose and the Elkin people are alarmed at the situa- tion ; the first because of the increasing opposition to the nomination of the At- torney General and the latter because of the ,annénncement in so many counties that the delegates to the state convention will not be instructed on the gubernatorial question, but will be ‘friends of Quay.” Pennsylvanians look upon this as mean- ing that Senator Quay intends to thus con- trol a majority of the state convention, and then, should Mr. Elkin be found too heavy a load for the party to carry this year, the “mailed hand’? will be laid on him and he will be set aside. It is also reported that the leaders of hoth factions in Pittsburg have notified Governor Stone that there can be no har- mony there with Mr. Elkin as the nominee for Governor. No State Agricultural Exhibit. HARRISBURG, March 19.—A meeting of the executive committee of the Pennsylva- nia commission to the Charleston exposi- tion was held here to-day, at which it was decided to make no state agricultural ex- hibit at the exposition, which closes June 1st. The last Legislature appropriated ‘$5,000 for an agricultural display, and William F. Hill, of Meadville, master of the State Grange, was recently chosen to arrange for it. Mr. Hill reported to-day to the committee that the time was too short in which to prepare an exhibit, after which the committee decided to cover the money back into the state treasury. em v Fusion in Nebraska.

LiNcoLN, Neb., March 19.—The state central committees of the Democrats and Populists met here to-night to agree upon the time and place for the state conven- tions, but decided to delegate power to their respective chairmen. The question of fusion’ was discussed in executive session and, although no binding action was taken, there was a tacit agree- ment that the two parties will fuse on a state ticket.

Between $7,000 and $8,000 Stolen from Craw- ford County Concern. The Farmers Bank, of Townville, Craw- -| ford county, was burglarized some time Tuesday night and the entire supply of cash contained {in the vault, amounting to be- tween $7,000 and $8,000, stolen.

Ellison were also visited and food and dishes stolen, these being evi- dently taken to an unoccupied hotel build- ing, where traces of a midnight meal have been found.

Mr. Kruger said be still relied on Divine help, and prayed to God to add to the mir- acles he was accomplishing in favor of the Boers, that of dispelling the blindness of the British. Mr. Kruger said the British offers of peace were unacceptable, because the Boers could not abandon their inde- pendence, which was God's gift. He add- ed : ‘We could not give up without repudiat- ing God and meriting His maledictions.”’ | Flatly Refused Our Demand.
