The Republi cans achieved practically their first open victory in tho consideration "f thetarill bill yesterday, when, by a vote of 33 to 20, Just before adjournment lost evening, quicksilver was stricken from the free list and placed on the dutiable list at seven cents per pnutid. Mr. White (Cal.) was instrumental In securing the aid and vote of Mr. 11111 (.N. Y.) for this proposition, and Mr. Stewart (Nev.) rallied tho I'opu 11st support, so that the motion was car ried. Mr. tl 111 went so far as to pair Mr. Irby (S. C.) who was not In the chamber, in favor of the proposition. The pro gress with the free list was very rapid, about twenty-four pages of the bill being disposed of. Nothing of especial mo ment occurred lu the debate, the opposi tion to the items on the free list (except as regards quicksilver) being largely of n formal character, most of them having been touched upon during the considera tion of the dutiable list. Nine pages of the free list are yet to be disposed of be fore the administrative features of the bill are reached. Before tho consideration of the free list began Senator Jones, on behalf of the Democratic side, accepted several amend ments suggested by Republican spnaton, chief among which was one striking out the reciprocity provision In paragraph 190 admitting buckwheat, corn, wheat, Hour, etc., free of duty from countries which impose no import duty on like products from the Ulil.cd States. Another amend ment placing eggs ou the dutiable list at three cents per dozen was accepted. The reciprocity provision was warmly de feated by the Democrats when it was be fore tliu senate, but the ameudmeut strik ing It out was agreed to without a word of explanation. Tho proceedings of tho houso were dull in the extreme, the entire day being given to long speeches on the anti-option bill. Long before the hour of adjournment nr- rived the dullness became oppressive for most of tho members, driving them away from the house and leaving row after row of vacaut chuirs. Speaker Crisp was again absent on account of sickness, and Mr. Bailey, of Texas, wielded the gavel. Sev eral small bills were passed. Hank Looters' Heavy Sentence. New York. June 20.

Nkw Yoiik. June 20. The I,exow police Investigating committee met yesterday In Part II ot the superior court. Lawyer Moss, of Dr. I'nrkhurit'9 society, ooetied the proceedings by reading the reports o( rcrtnlti oaplntns made to .Superintendent Byrnes iu the spring of WJ. Theie In cluded lists of policy aud gambling shops, pool rooms and houses of prostitution. The names of the proprietors of these places were given. Counsel said that when tho I'nrkhurst society brnughtthee lists up before the grand Jury the fact was brought out that Superintendent liyrncs had it in his power to Issue warrants. "Immediately after that," said Lawyer Moss, "the captains in their reports said that the bad houses were closed." He read from the successive reports of Captains Dohcrty and Cross, which showed thnt up to the last report innde this year there were no gambling places.ponl rooms, policy shops, or opium joints lu their pre cincts. I "As soon as the responsibility was shown to rest on buperintcudeut llyrues the cap tains suppressed reporting tho places," declared counsel. Kev. Dr. Kmtle Hamilton was tho first witness called. He said that there were many brothels open in Captain Devery's precinct after he reported them closed. lie said he complained to Cnptalu Devery ou the Ktntlou house steps, He quoted the captain's saying: "Well, men who are looking for thnt sort ot thing enn find plenty of it." Tho witness said ho told the captain that he did not come there to bo insulted. Once he called on a police man to close saloons open ou Suudny, aud the officer replied that ho dared not. The minister ascertained the character of tho houses by going iuto them to distribute tracts. Frank CInrk, a former gambler, testified that he was formerly a dealer In a faro gnme in l'rinco street, called "The Old General's. " That was from 1859 to 180S. Ills testimony showed that the police have xactcd blackmail for years past. Hesnld Kelso, Dusenberry nnd Tilley came from headquarters once a week. " hat was the amount paldf" "Wo paid $100 oach week. The money was paid from 1H51I to ISOo." Kelso was afterwards superintendent of police!"' "Yes, sir." The witness told with a wealth of detail how victims were tleeced. When they complained to tho police tho ward man would warn tho gamblers to lay low. Then the victim would be brought to the prem ises to Identify the gamblers, but they never wero there. "Tho police," said tho gambler, "re ceived half the money. If the victim lost tl.OOO tho police received $500 of it. We had to give half or go out of business." Then came a sonsationnl disclosure im plicating Pollco Justice Patrick Dlvver, who then used to keep n saloou. The wit ness said that Dlvver set his employer up in business and that the money from robbed couutrymen poured over his bar. Divver got half the proceeds, besides the money spent for drinks. After the witness left tho seductive games 01 Inro and bunco lie tried the 'sawdust' swindle for the space of four weeks. Since lt87 the witness hns been lending an honest life, working nt tho rubber trade. He said ho never was ar rested in this city for buncoing or gam bling. Once he was arrested ou suspicion of being Implicated in a jewelry robbery, but proved his lunoceuce. "How came you to testify herof" asked Judge Hansom. llecuuse I was beat out of a lot of money. I hey tried to make a tool ot mo aud send ine to the state's prison for an other man, said the witness in a bitter tone. How did you know the crooks left money for the pollcef" 'liecause they wero not so careful in those days ns they are iiow." Now, do you know the names of any officers to whom crooks gave money!" Why, certainly. The crooks Dan Iso- ble and Shnrkley used to leave money for Detectives llogau and Dusenberry," an swered the witness readily. Clark declared he had never personally paid "protection" money, but stuck to it that his employers paid liberally. Justine lHvver'a Denial Par Hockawav, N. Y June 20. Pollco Justice Patrick Dlvver, when seen at his residence here last night, emphatically de nied the charges made against him before the Lexow committee by the witness Clark. "These charges," said Mr. Dlvver, "are simply trumped up by my political enemies." For 1'iofessluual Football Nkw Yoiik, June 20.
