PRESIDENT PRO TKM.
VBT riii.K ,.n irn Tev-iiiK TKimse.]
Washington. July 30.?Thc Senate tariff hil
?will probably not t>c reported for some lime vet
Those in a ixisition to know say that it will ta kt
at least a week or ton duys for the Committee or
Finance to llnish ita labors. Most of tin- schedule!
have been, or aro to bc, submitted to thc differonl
inlorcst.s affected. It will be impossible, probably
to please everybody; but thc attempt will Ik
made to liarmoni/e all conilictlng claims so as tc
produce in the end a thoroughly equitable meas
ure which shall really reduce the revenues, and
not, like the ? Dark Lantern** bill, only pretend
to do it. It is needles* to add that it will alsc
be drafted on liner, of just protection without
creating monopolies, and will not, like the Milli*
bill, cover under the cloak of the surplus an
attack upon the industries of thc country and
at the same time foster trusts.
Ihe sub-committee is still giving hearings and
receiving suggestions. To-day, for instance, it
listened lo an argument submitted by representa?
tives of wool-growers. To-morrow it will heat
woollen manufacturers. It has within tlie last
week also given workiugmen an opportunity to
be- heard. All this is in striking contrast to the
manner in which the Mills bill was prepared and
pushed through. Thc Republican members of
tho committee do not exclude their Dcmooratio
colleagues from their meetings. Mr. Reck, the
Dcmocratio memlier of the sub-committee, for ex?
ample, has at all times had free access to the
meetiiijpi, but for some reason or another has
never availed him-elf of the opportunity to attend
them.
Thc bill, after being reported to the Senate, will
bc discussed in all ita details. Nothing has been
done looking toward a curtailment of discussion.
All talk of preventing the delivery of speeches or
limiting the time of debate has so far been con?
fined to Denies nit iu- Senator-. A member of the
Finance (.ominitH-c said to day that the bill would
certainly l>e discussed for at least one mouth.
This, together with the ten days it will lake to
put the bill into IbbI shape lor report io the Ken?
nie and discussion in conlerence after it shall have
paved that body, does not promise well for an
early adjournment of CongTCBB. Indeed, if Con?
gress gets througb with its work by the middle of
September it will be doing welL
Already over twenty applications have been filed
with the President pro Hm. for the delivery ol K<n
rral speeches. As many more will pour in prob?
ably before the bill is reported. These will con?
sume ten days, at least. IB their delivery 'Ihe
remainder of the time will be taken up in discuss?
ing the bill section by section.
now THE BIG TRUSTS ARE ORGANIZED.
THK1P. PLAN AND METHODS POlNTKD OUT BT
THE HOUSE COMMITTEE.
Washington, July 30.?Tho House Committee on
Manufactures to day submitted a report on the trusti
Investigation. The plan of investigation ls stated as
follows :
First, With relation to trusts or combinations In lines
of business which uso articles In which there exists a com?
petition between tho domestic and the foreign product im?
ported and dutlsble under our tsriff lews.
Second, With relation to such combinations dealing In
articles imt Imported luto this country or not subject lo Im
part duties.
Third, Wiih relation 'o such combinations dealing In
articles aubject to taxation under the Internal Revenue
laws of thc United Suite*
As to the Inquiry Into the Sugar Trust and the
Standard oil Trust, the report states:
Both are organized upon substantially tbe same plsn.
lt appoars thai there exists a certain number of corpora?
tions organized under the laws of the different States; that
theso corporations havo Issued their stock to vsrlous in?
dividuals, and that these individual stockholders hsve sur
)* lidded their stoca to the trustees named in tho agree?
ment UBBliag these trusts, and accepted In lieu theteof
BBM-gSBtaa lsMiod ly tho trustees. Tho agreements pro
vldo that the various corporationa whose stock is sur?
rendered to tho trustees shall preservo their Identity and
carry on tholr business. In Ihe Sugar Trust agruement the
provision is that tho several corporations shall maintain
their aeparne organizations and each shall carry on and
conduct Its own business. In the Standard Oil Trust
agreement it is provided Hat all property, real and per?
sonal, assets and business, shall be transferred to and
vested In tho said several companies. Tho duties of
the trustees arc restricted U the receipt of the divi?
dends declared by the various corporations and the dis?
tribution of the aggregate of Hum to tho holders of tho
trust certificates, pro rata, and to holding and voting
upon tho atock of tho corporation. The trust' ? ?-, In
both cases, as witnesses, denied that thc trustees, ss
such, ever do any other business than to receive and
distribute these dividend* and exorcise Ihe only other
function given to them by the trust agreements, that is,
to hold the stock of the various corjiorsiions and eserelat
the right of stockholders in Bach corporation. Tha erne
with which itu- trusto.** avoid making any agreement
relating to commodities appears from thc testimony as to
tlie arrangement with the Oil Producers' Association lu
the fall of 1887. Thc officers ttstlUod that an arrange
mont was then made with the Standard Oil Trust by
which COOO.OOO barrels of oil belonging to the {standard
Oil Trust was set span fur the benefit of the association,
upon Hs BgrsSBSg lo curtail the production ot crude oil
at least 17,600 barrels per diem. These witnesses un?
doubtedly understand that their arrangement was with
the trustees of the Standard Oil Trust. But the written
agreement produced theiws that it mas mado with and
first signed by the Standard OH Company of New-York,
BM af Iha companies whoso stock is held by Uh trustees,
and that the fctandard Oil Trust, or the trustees thereof,
as such, are not parties to lt, nor is either of them re?
sponsible for the carrying out of that agreement.
This form of co_-binaiie,n was obviously devised for
the purpose of relieving thc trusts and trustees from thc
charge of any breach of the conspiracy laws of tho various
States, or of bei-ig a comblnaUon to regulate or control
the price of production of anv commodity j hence they as?
sert that tho corporations themeelvos, which control and
regulate tbe nrlee of comniodilie* and tho extent of
production, and have tangible property, remaiu with their
organization Intact or distinct, snd not In combination wllh
each other; that the stockholders who owned only tht
slock, and had no legal tulo in the property of tho cor
poi-a tiona, sold their stock in Ute corporations and ac?
cepted in payment trust certificates, and that tho trustees
have nu local lille to any of the property of the corpora?
tions, and neither buy nor mil anything nor combine with
any one to Ox prices or regulate production ol any com?
modity.
lt la plain that these oomblnsUons have been Inten?
tionally formed so as to avoid, if possible, the charge that
thc- trust as mich, or the trustees In that capacity, either
fixed the Brtoe or regulated the production ol any article
of merchandise or coii__ii-n ,\
Complaint having been made to him by the citizens of
tho State ot New-York sk*inst the Sug;.r Trust and one
of lite corporations whose atock lt holds, tho Attorney
General of that Slate has directed prosecutions to be
begun against that trust und corporation.
Tbe House authorized the committee to sit during
the recess and take further testimony relative to trusts.
TO PREVENT VIOLATION Off HIS PLEIX.ES.
Washington, July 30 (-Spec I al).-The question of
Territorial government and the appointment of Ter?
ritorial residents to Territorial offices was brought up
to-day in an amendment to Senator Mitchell's bill to
provide for an additional Justice of the Supreme Cant.
of Wyoming. Tho bill originally provided that here?
after the Supreme Court of Wyoming should consist of [
a Chief Justice and three Associate Justices, any two
of whom should constitute a quorum, but that no Jus?
tices should act aa a member of the court, In any action
brought before lt on appeal fiom a decision lOadSaaB
ly suth Judge as Judge of a iJjstrict OsSBt The bill
as ameti'led provides that three members of the court
shall constitute a quorum; that a Judge may sit in a
case brought up on appeal from his own decision In a
lower court only when any one of the other Judges
ahall be disqualified to act, and to the suction provid?
ing for the appointment of tbe new Judge is added the
words:
'? And who shall when appointed be a resident of
said Territory."
This will prevent the President from violating tbe
pledges of the Iiernoc, alic National platform of ISM,

Judiciary CommlHeo, a-kod unanimous consent that
tbe International Copyright bill be mad" B IfBOlal

measures bSaSSaS th* Copyright bill. Including Gio

chief anxiety of the Democratic leaders ls to shelve

A SCHEME TO RECLAIM THE ARID REGIONS.
Washington, July -'10 (Special).-Tba BaBBla spent
tho greater part of the day In discussing an amend?
ment to tbo Sundry Civil bill which looks to tho
reclamation of lands in thc arid regions, for agricult?
ural purposes, by means of a s.v-teni of rsOBSTOllS ami
Irrigating ditches. The amendment was tinnily passed
by a voto of ill) to 18, which ls a subsiaiiil.il victory
for the* friends of the amendment, since the proposltlnn
had not been favored by tho Committee on Appropria?
tions, on the ground that lt would open the doors to a
schenio which would involve the outlay of millions.
The amendment adopted to-day is only tentative In
character. ll provides for an appropriation of
9250,000, to bo expended under the direction of the
Geological Survey, In tho examination of tho whole
subject, In surveys and other necessary preliminary
work. Accotdlng to the statement of Major Powell,
the director of the Geological -survey, tho work of sur?
veying tho arid region alone will require (8,000,000.
The work of constructing even the simplest sort of a
system of reaerrolra would require, according to tha
estimates of those who opposed this scheme to-dav,
*_l',O00,000.

Sheriff Grant sent Deputy Sheriff Kaufman early yes?
terday morning to the store of Levi M. Bates at Slxth
ave. and Twenty-third st., to begin an auction sale
of the goods there, under Judgments amounting to
over 8800,000. Topping <fc Co., of Wh!te-si., the
sheriff's auctioneers, who had prepared a catalogue as
soon as the Inventory was completed, were notified at
once, and began the sale at half pa.st 10 o'cleick. The
news that the stock was to be sold In this woy spread
rapidly, and within a few minute* authorised repre?
sentatives of Hie prominent local wholesale bonana, as
well as New-York agouti of Western and Southern
firms, began pouring Into the great store. The prices
obtained for the lots ofleied were a surprise to many.
The bidding was very lively, and the goods com?
manded figures which exceeded by far what could have
been realized at private sale.
The crowd of buyers at one time approached 2,000
in number, and lt ls a safe prediction that the claims
of tho execution creditors will be paid dollar for
dollar. It was the talk among dry-goods nu-n through?
out the city yesterday that Mr. Dales dhi not really
desire that any leniency should be shown him by hts
creditors, and'that after the first attachment he bael
decided to take the shuiest method ol satisfying those
to whom he was liable. Nei estimate had been made
of the actual valuo of the stock. With a view lo ascer?
taining the Boasta, but the proceeds (rom the sale, to
tether with the food luis receivable, trill pi
?satisfy all creditors. Mr. Hates al present haa bo
plans for resuming.

in favor of General a. p. iiovey. Among the sian.-i
cst friends of Governor Porter ls Congressman \V. I
Owen. In conversation with a Trlbutio BOIlOafOni
cut 10-day Mr. Owen said:
I am extremely sorry that Governor Porter has d
ci,I,*d not to Le a candidate. I do not think there
another man In tho Stato, In either parly, who is i
strong among tho workingmen as Iio ls, although some i
our leaders aro very strong. In view nf the presei
situation, I heartily favor the nomination af Gcnen
lleevi-y. He ls popular among tho workingmen, ls
man who ls universally respected sud esteemed for tl:
purity of his chara.-u-r and his unselllsh patrlotisn
ileitides, ho possesses nn element of strength which wi
lie potent In the Indiana campaign this year, and thi
ls his jiopularlty among the veterans of tho war. 1
is estimated that there are 70,000 Union ex-soldlei
In Indiana who aro voters, and one-seventh to one
sixth si whom aro Democrats. All tho veterans, wit
few exceptions, would support him. Two years ago li
was elected to Congress by I majority of aleut 1,300 1
a District which gave the Democratic candidate 1,50
majority In 1884, a Presidential year. Nearly ever
cx-soldler In the District, Democrat or Republican, vote
for him. As the la al of a great orgaiUzatlon of Unto
veterans among tho objects of which ls to promot
liberal pension legislation, he ls well known among th
ex-soldlcrs of Indiana and throushout tho country,
believe that his nomination would Insure the triump
of our Stale* tick-t.

had lived, afterward laid claim to the property on behalf

Hi.* Buyer, hmaght an ejectment suit in tlielr name against
Mr. Hyni-s's sisters, claiming that the widow had be:en the
wife ol ths d ad man. The evidence showed that there
ha i baan no marriage ceremony and publication of the bans
and that the maniac" was not valid under English law.
A vi-dlct waa re-udercd for the plaintiffs, the Jury being
Shaigsd by tho Judge thar, if Hynes, as a citizen ot this

laws of this Suite, and to bring her to this country to live
with him as bis wife, there waa a valid marriage. This
wu-i affirmed by tho Court of Appeals. On a second trial,
