Waiting For the Verdict on Senator
Hill's Resolution.
HE HOUSE NOT ANXIOUS !
Say They Can Pass the AmcndediSenate
Bill, Whatever the Verdict on the
Resolution flay Be.
WAsmnotox. Auoc. 13. Yesterday was
anything but a day of rest for the tnriff
leaders. They were on the go trom early
morning until late nt night. It was a day
of conferences at tue hlto House, at
the nrivate residences of the conferrees
and nt the hotels. Secretary Carlisle was
with President Cleveland throughout the
nfternoon. The senate and house confer
rees made no effort to net together, and
they remain as wide apart as when their
meeting broke up on Friday night. The
house conferrees were In consultation in
formally most of the day, although at.no
timo were they all together nt once.
Chairman Wilson spent the day with Rep
resentative Breckinridge, of Arkansas, at
the Normandle hotel, and was there called
upon by the other conf erreos. Mr. Wl lsou
did not see the president through tho day.
The meetings of the house men brought
hbout a thorough understanding among
them as to the line of action at the caucus
today, and in the Bubscqneut proceedings
of the senate and house. They reviewed
tho situation from overy possible stana-
Doint and prepared themselves for an
emergencies. As one of them said, it was
like going over tho Held ol battle ana
learning the topography of the ground on
the night before the great light.
i At tho outBot tho house conferrees sat
isfied themselves of the parliamentary sie-
uatlon of the bill. They had don this
with the greatest caro toward securing an
nocurato and authoritative decision,
Speaker Crisp had been asked to examine
with oaro the precedents bearing on tue
case, and it was understood that he had
In turn consulted with Secretary Car
lisle, who, as ex-spenker of tho hou6e of
representatives, is regarded as one ol the
best authorities on parliamentary pro
cedure.
From the examination whloh had been
inade the conferrees were fully satisfied
that tho houfco of representatives had the
right to pass tho senate bill now or at any
time. This determination went much
further than has heretofore been under
stood. It was that the bouse, having tho
actual physical possession of the taritr
bill, oiuld poiis It with the senate amend
ments before tho Hill resolution iis9od or
after tho Hill resolution paS3ed, or after
the Hill rolutioa was defeated, That
is, so confident were the houso conferrees
of their right to puss the bill at any time
that thoy regarded their rights as entirely
unaffected by anything tho senate could
do with the Hill resolution or with any
other resolution. They reoogulzed that
there wore soma precedents against this
position, but they regarded tho over
whelming f jrco of authority with them,
and they therefore accepted It as settled
that the house .had suproine authority
over the bill, without ruterouco to what
.the senate mlnht do today or hereafter.
i This oouatusiou was of the utmost Im
portance in bearing on the action of to
day's caucus, it assured uicm, in ma
first place, that thero was no need of pre-
otpltnte notion toward accepting me seui
ate bill before Mr. Hill's resolution has
passed. It was agreed, however, that ud
cnn.h hnta wim neocssorv. On the con
trary, it was felt that tho'house.ln having
possession of the bill and a parliamentary
right to pass it ot any time, had every
llilng to gain and nothing to lose by do-
Ulborato action.
I There Is undoubtedly a dosiro on the
"part of a large majority of tho Democratic
Senators, practically all of them, unless H
'may be the Louisiana senators, to have
... !.. n.ti,m tmq
ilio J1UUSU lutuunsiuu vuv
s due to the general belief in tho souate
hat the houso will accept the senate
Wmnmlmnntannd that tho senato bill will
thus become law, and to tho fear that If
(the bill should again go to the senate it
would be Indefinitely postponed, while on
the other haud it is believed that if tho
house should agree to the senate amend
ments the senate would aoqnlesoe in this
action and waive the technical objections
which might bo raised over tho posses
sion of the bill, IX Is understood that
even Senator Hill, notwithstanding his
opposition to trio Mil, woum uo uisposeu
f o accept the f ovornble action of the house
hs final, and to permit tho bill to go to
(the president without raising any parlia
mentary questions concerning it.
J Tho hope is general about tho senate
(that the present will be tho last week ot
the session. This is based upon tho belief
that tho tariff bill will be disposed of in
somo way early in tho week, and with the
tariff out of the way final adjournment
jean be brought about at almost any lime.

. London, Aug. la An accident that

stoker had a marvelous escape from death.
The accident was duo to the unexplained
failure of the brakes to work.

PETER JACKSON ANXIOUS
The Colored Piiglllat Wnntt to rore a
Fight with Corbett.
CHICAGO. Aug. 18. Peter Jackson left
last evening for New York, where he goes
to personally learn from Corbett whether
the champion is trying to fool him out of
a match,
'I will never fight in the south," de
clared Jackson."! expressed myself clearly
upon the point when I first came to this
country, and even when the original ar
ticles of agreement for my second fight
with Corbett were drawn up it was stipu
lated that the contest should take place
north of the Mason and Dixon's line. My
object is solely on the score of tho race
prejudice which exists there.
notice that Brady, Corbett's theatri
cal partner, said recently that one of the
reasons why Jim had not wished to fight
In England was because I had too many
friends there. Well, Til Just oak any rea
sonable man how I should feel about
fighting Jn the south when I should not
only have Corbett's friends to contend
against, but with the prejudice as well."
"Do you think Corbett wants to avoid a
meeting wlth youp" was asked.
"I won't go so far as that," replied
Jackson. "I will say, though, that ho has
delayed matters right along. Now I hear
ho is booked in the show line up to next
February. I havo been told over and over
afedinVtoo, that Corbett has said ha won't
fight me .Until he gets me where he wants
me, and! suppose that means until old
age has laid Its hand upon me."
"Suppose that Corbett would proposs
lighting In prlvater"
"That would suit mo," responded Peter,
eagerly. "All I want is to be assured pro
tection and have a voice in the selection
of tho referee."

THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES.
Brumm and Scott Win In ShenandoaH
After Spirited Contests.
Tho Republican primaries held hero
Saturday proved the most spirited and
closely contested held in tho town for
several years. Thero was a hot Brumm-
Scott combination fight in every ward
nnd tho combination succeeded In getting
fourteen of the twenty votes.
There was on unmistakable Davis feel
ing throughout the town, but the ma
jority of the people who went to tho polls
took the view that Congress wns of mora
Importance to tho people nt lnrge than
tho ofilce of Sheriff and that Brumm
should bo the nominee.
All the Scott delegates were pro
nounced Brumm men, while the Davis
delegates are composed of Brumm,
Shoener, Ixsoh and unpledged men,
nnd rather thnn havo nu uncertnlnty
nbout the support Brumm would reclve
in the county convention the majority of
the people decided to vote the other tick
et In full nnd sacrifice Davis.
Davis Becured the two delegates in tha
First ward nnd one In the Fourth wnrd.
Scott got the bnlance. As to Congress,
Brumm secured eighteen of the twenty
votes tho town is entitled to in tho con
vention, one of tho delegates having re
fused to pledge himself to any of the Con
gressional candidates.
An interesting fact connected with the
primaries was that four Councllmen were
ou the tickets for dclegateshlps of some
Kind nnd three or them wero Knocked out.
The fourth wns saved from dofeat by be
ing upon both tickets lu his ward. This
Councilman was T. J. James. The de
