RIVER AND HARBOR BILL President Cleveland Allows It to Become a Law Without His Signature Mc pherson Threatens to Resign. Washington, Aug. 10. Tho treasury Jepartment has mailed to oustoms offloera coplos of tho new tariff bill in order that they might bo ablo to properly nssoss duties when tho now bill hecomos a law The first coplos scoured by thodopartmont were sent to far wostern points, and as fast as tho remaining oopios wore delivered by tho printer they wero promptly mnllod to all other customs collectors and treas ury ugents. Tho copies sent to San Francisco and Portland, Or., will reach thoso cities next Friday, and it Is oxpoctod that tho tariff bill will bocomo a law on thot day. No More Tariff Ltclilntlnn. Tho senate has decided that there shall bo no further legislation over which thoro Is a contest at tills session of congress by adopting Mr. Murphy's resolution to that Bffoot by a good majority. Indeed, it Is doubtful lf anything could have been dono evon without the adoption of this resolu tion, for It was lmposslblo to socuro a working quorum on any party division, and other sonators oro about to leavo the city. Tho resolution appointing Mr. White of California a monibor of tho finance commltteo met with no opposi tion and was agreed to unanimously. Mr. Gray's resolution instructing tho commltteo on ilnanco to report tho frco sugar hill immediately with an amend ment putting a "flat" duty upon sugar did not faro so well and wont ovor with out action, owing to tho lack ,of a quo rum. Another resolution was offered by Mr. Lindsay declaring that it was tho sonso of the sonata that congress should not ad journ without striking out of tho tariff bill the benollts it gives to the Sugar trust, which was amonded by Including tho Whisky trust, and as amonded It wont ovor under objection. Hirer and Harbor Ulll a Law. Tho river and harbor bill, carrying ((11, 47(1,180, becamo a law at midnight last night without President Clovolond's sig nature, the legal limit of 10 days having expired within which ho could sign or voto it. It is the third timo during Mr. Cleveland's two terms that a river and harbor bill has bocomo n law without his approval, tho only other bill of this kind submitted to him having been vetoed. Fours wero expressod up to n Into hour that tho preeont bill would bo votood, as Mr. Clovolandmado It known to tho river and harlmr munagors sevoral months ago that ho did not want tho total of tho bill to oxcoed $10,000,000. This led to narlntr down tho opproprlations on most of tho nvor nnu noruor projects about four-llfths from tho ostlmatos, so that tho total of J9, 630,089 allowed by tho house was about one-fifth of what the army englnoors ask ed to prosecute the work. In tho senatotho bill was raised to 813,- T90,68Q. This led to an anlmatod struggle In conference, tho house, men contending that tho bill would bo vetoed unless it was much reducod, Tho conforoos finally reauceu it to h,478,iso, and thus it wna accepted In both houses and bo went to the president. No New Contrnota. Aside from tho amount carried bv the mu, tuo sundry civil appropriation bill also carries $s,400,uoo for rlvor and bar bor oontraots, making a total for this class of work of $1U,878,180, This It about $2,000,000 less ttian tho amount given for rlvor and harbor work at tho first session of tho last oongross. An Im portant feature of the new bill Is that It authorizes no new contracts. Senator Harris, acting chairman of the commltteo on finance, has culled a mooting of that oommltteo for tomorrow, whon It is understood tho supplemental tariff bills will bo taken up and un offort made to have them reported, notwlthstondlng tho sonato's adoption of tho Murphy resolu tlon declaring against the nraotloabllltv of all efforts at further contested legisla tion during this session. The Deinooratlc members of tho commltteo say thoy do not consider tho action of the senate on the Murphy resolution as binding upon the committee, and they will make nn euort to have the bills reported at least. borne oi tuo jJomoorntlo mombers who voted for reference are anxious that the oommltteo should act, as suoh action would justify tholr course, and they are hopeful that the llopublloan members will not antagonize them In this by seeking to soouro delay In oommlttee. Mol'herson Wanted to llealgn. Senator MoPherson oamonour tenderlna his resignation as n senator from Now Jersey yestorday. Ho wont bo far as to produce a blank form of resignation and was preparing to fill It out, when somo ot ma inonas, learning of his decision, wont to him and succeeded In persuading him to forego his resolution. Thoy found him at first quite determined upon resignation and only after much argument Influenced htm to ohange his mind. The sonator gave as his reason for de siring to bo rid of his ofllolal responsibili ties that his health was very muoh broken, and, as he desired to 'be absent for an In definite longth of time, he had concluded that the honorablo oourse for him was to vacato his seat that some one else might be chosen to aot. Ills friends represented to him that the session was rapidly drawing ta a oloe, that tho adoption of the Murphy resolu tlon was positive evidence that jiO furilu i Important legislation could be enantod be fore final adjournment and that ran si - auontlv there was no Impropriety In his going hway and" remaining until noxt winter. Induced to Remain. They also called his attontlon to the fact that tho next session would continue only three months and would not probably bo vury exacting on mombers. Further more, thoy called tho sonator's attention to the awkward oondltlon In which hl resignation at tho present time woud leave Now Jersey politics. Tho governor of th state is a Democrat nnd would, lf hi should appoint n successor, select n Domo crat, but tho legislature Is Republican and Is called to meet in extra session in Octo ber next It Is highly probablo, thoreforo, that a Republican would bo chosen to ill! tho term of tho senator, which will expln 9J1 (he Bd of next March, lf he should re sign. These representations wore apparently continuing to Mr. McPhorson, and th resignation did not go In. It Ik understood that the senator will leavo Washington immediately, and In vlow of the prospective onrly closo of tho sssslon will not return. Ho contemplates n trip to Kuropo, with tho hopoof securing perfect restoration to health. The Kzata Cau, Washington, Aug. 10.

HELD UP AT EVERY POINT Yeager Was Pounded Hard by the Visitors and His Support Was of a Very Suspicious Hue. Agoln defoat crowned the efforts of the Shenandoah base ball club at the Trotting park and tho club Blldes down to third place In tho State league, while Us great rival supplants it in second place. Since tho Shenaudoahs havo been in the league their talo has lengthened by chapters of woo and to-day their admirers aro Incon solable. In tho game with tho Phlladelphtas yes terday the coal diggers met one of the most evenly balanced teams it has en countered this season, and It was a strong one, too ; but with nil that It should have given tho people a better article of ball than they found. There were several glaring errors that led the people to be lieve that there is something radically wrong. Groans arose when somo of them were made. Tho Phlladolphlos batted hard and played with vim and snap. They pounded Yenger's delivery Into pulp and ran the bases with speed and good Judgment. When tho coal diggers wero at the bat tho Quakers played for all the game was worth and the errors charged against them wero due to iho rapid gait of the game, and not Incapability. The Shenondoahs had a hair-breadth escano from n shut out. The run scored was made on errors by Weslake, who played excellently duriug all other parts of tho game. O'Hara hit the ball to third and Weslake fumbled It. After getting hold of the hall and before fully recovering himself Wesluke threw it out of Massey's reach and Musser rnu home from third. As in the game with the Phlladelphias on Friday, the home team's pitcher went to pieces in the sixth inning. Yenger was hit for four singles, a two bagger nnd a uiree uagger, ami tuo scorcning was In creased by errors on the part of Gill, Mus ser nnd OIIara. The Shenandoahs had verv little chance against the visitors in nny part of the gameiumeiorm tnoy presented, but in the last four lnulncs tliev- wr ntismlii. tly not In It. In each of these innings the coal diggers went out In one, two, three order, getting only twelve men to tho bat during the four Innings, while the Quok ers got twenty-ono men to the plate. The leaiure oi tue game was staitz's work in tuc leu ueid. It is only fair to the vanniilshpd tenm tosav that In some nnrts nt Mm mni their work was no worse than that ot the umpire. At times Ms decisions were very yellow and In one inning tho spectators uiL-u mm vigorously, otin tuese Utcls Ions did not, as some say, give the Quak ers the game. Had they been correct the homo team would havo had two or three more runs to its credit. Score : SIIKNANDOAII. . n. po, A.
