wlrted n Hie Woo Schedule Token Up.
WASiiiNfTOS, Juno 4. Although the Bonato
nit tU o'clock toaay und did not adjourn
nntllh" post 0. tlio progress made with tho
Tariff bill was very email. That was partly
owing to the fact that tlio flrt four hour of tho
Mtlon wero consumed by two lonir speeches,
Jsiln faor of high ditties on wool by Mr. Man
Hi (Rep.. Moil), and tho othor for a, constitu
tional anientluiont to permit nn Incorao tax by
r Both r (Pop.. N. O.). It was nearly 3 o'clock
when the TnrlfT bill was nctunlly taken up. Tho
Betl schodulo was completed, except as to
those parngrnphi which had already been
Mued orcr, and except thoso relating to lend,
Sea, nickel, and watches, which wcro passed
iter to-dty. There woro only seven paragraphs
jnsjly m ted on to-day when the wood schedulo
m was ronchod. The discussion of tho first
paragraph In that scboduln, relating to timber
tjiwn, sldod, or squared, was not finished when
til Senato adjourned.
Mr. Mantle dlscusaed the wool schedulo, nrgu-
lir In fat or of a high duty on raw wool for tho
Ixaeflt of American growers. "Whllo criticising
thi position of the wool manufacturers, bo was
littrruptcd by Mr. Piatt (Hep., Conn.), who said
thjt the Senator's remarks wero scarcoly fair to
tho groat majority of Uio wool manufacturers.
Wbethor they thought It an advantage to their
frailness to have froo wool or not, he (Mr. Piatt)
could not say. Somo of thorn did, somo did not.
With a Tory fow exceptions ho bellovcd that tho
itntlzuent of the wool manufacturers was that
Ihtrc ahuuld bo a sufficiently protective duty on
wool
Mr. Mantle's speech oocuplod two hours. Ita
dosing Ideas were that no protoctlvo tariff
could exist In this country which did not fully
protect wool; that that was the corner stono of
lbs great arch of protection, and that without It
ths whole structuro of protection would fall to
tie ground.
Mr. Ilutlor (Pop.. N. C.) spoke in favor of a con-
ftS itltutlonal amoudment authorizing tho levying
K of an Income Ux. He had not procoeded far be-
IK tort ono of his statements attracted the atton-
XT tlonof Mr. Culloin (Hop., 111.), Chalrmun of tho
Committee on Interstate Commerce, who con-
1 trsdlcted the statement to the effect that the
I committee had been exhibiting undue haste In
I) the matter of a pooling bill. Mr. Culloin said that
I the committee had only hold Its regular weekly
II Ksilons, and had shown no undue hasto In tho
1' natter. He addod that as the commlttco antic!
rli Mtjwt iho Suoremo Court's lunklnt? a decision
Ithlch would weakon the authority of tho Intor
tate Commerce Commission, one of the prlncl
tl purposes of tho bill which tho commlttco
ras considering was so to amend tho law that
be recont decision of tho Supreme Court would
lot apply to it: in other words, that the com
nlsslon should havo power to say not only thnt
l given railroad rate was too high, but that
knottier rate would bo regarded as reasonable
md Just.
Mr. Chilton (Dem., Tex.), another member of
he Interstate Commerce Committee, disagreed
rith the Chairman as to an abseuoe of a desire
to posh the "pooling" bill. He said that he had
en a member of the committee, but had heard
lothlng of a " pooling " bill until after tho docl
lion of the Supreme Court.
Mr Cullom expressed tho hopo that tho com
nlttee would report a bill which would satisfy
Lbs Benato and tho people.
Mr. Butler then went ou w 1th his speech. He
leclared that the Sugar Trust was an lnftint and
he bundard OU Trust a pigmy In comparison
rith the transportation lines. The proposed
'pooling" legislation was intended to protoct
io railroads from competition with each othor.
a fact, he said, they did not compete now ex
rtpt at terminal points.
It was nearly 3 o'clock when the Tariff bill
ras actually taken up. The load paragraphs
179, ISO, and 181) were passed over.
Paragraph 187, relates to quicksilver. Tho
Rouse bill makes the duty 10 cents per pound,
he committee amendment makes it 0 cents.
r& paragraph gave rise to much discussion, in
xhlch the ownership of tho quicksilver mines
outside of California) by the Rothschilds was
aade tho most of by Senators Stewart and Per
tlns. The commlttco amendment was agreed to.
Mr. Jones of Arkansas moved a reduction of
ie rates on type metal (paragraph 188) from lKi
:ents a pound (for tho lead) to three-fourths of a
xnt, and on new type from i!A per cent, ad
ralorem to 15 per cent. Rejected 18 to H8.
Paragraph 180 (watches and clocks) wis
pawed over at tho request of Mr. Lodge (Rep.,
Um), r
The next paragraph (100), relating to xino, was
modified on motion of Mr. Allison by making
lit duty on zlno In blocks or pigs lh cent a
pound; In sheets, 2 cents, and on old and worn
out zincs, 1 cent.
The wood schedule, D. waa then reached,
i Mr. Allison I Hep., la.) moved to make the duty
7 on timber, hewn, sided, or squared (paragraph
yl92), 14 cenU per cubic foot. Instead of 1 cent.
' Jj Mr. Allison's amendment waa agreed to, but
Ml the paragraph was not completed when tho bill
a! iu laid aside.
U The House amendments to the Senate bill,
B providing a system of signals on vessels In the
I Internal waters of the United States, were
I agreed to, and the Senato, after a short execu
I tire session, adjourned till to-morrow.

Tho question of the city's right or powor to
acqutro ths franchises ot tho Sixth and Eighth
nvonuo roads llnnlly got beforo tho Sinking
Fund Commissioners in an official form yester
day. Corporation Counsel Scott handed ta a
long opinion Informing the Commissioners that
they have no power to accept tho offer ot Henry
J. Ilrakor of f 3.000,000 for tho roads in case the
city acquires them and no power to take stops
on behalf of ths city to acquire them.
At tho best, Mr. Scott says, tho resolution
granting the franchises only attempts to reserve
to the city an option to roqulro a surrender ot
the roads, and he thinks it tuny bo a serious
quostlon, If tho city insisted on tho surrender,
whether It would acquire more than the title to
tho rails and ties without any right to operato
tho roads or to resell tho franchises. Assuming,
howover, that tho city would gain all tho rights
ot tho road, Mr. Bcott la of the opinion that tho
city will not bo in a position to aoqulro tho prop
erty until somo board nuthorUod to represent
It snail determtno to oxerrJse tho option. This
powor Is not among the powors conferred by
law on tha Sinking Fund Commission. Even If
It had the power to roniqulro tho roads It
oould not thon accept Mr. Broker's offer, which
Is a private ngrcemont to buy tho roads at a
flxod prloe and without competition. The only
way the Sinking Fund oan soil city property,
oxcept in cases spoclflcally provided for by law,
Is be publlo auction or upon sealed bids.
Mr. Scott then goes on to reply to thoso per
sons, especially Mr. Broker's attorney, who have
suggested that he wasn't alert In protecting tho
city s Interests. He cites tho case of the Third
Avenue Railroad, which coinpellod tho Commis
sioner of Publlo Works, by a decision ot the
Court of Appeals, to grant permits for a chango
ot motive power, and said ho did not feel Justi
fied In delaying without hopo of ultlmnto success
tbe prosecution of an important public work by
advising against permits to the Sixth and
Eighth avenne roads to chango tholr motive
power. Until the alty puts itself In a position to
sxerciso and enforce its option, it It has one. by
tendering the purchase price of the roads, thoy
belong to their ownors, who are entitled to
develop them In any lawful manner.
Recorder Got! said ho agreed with Mr. Scott
as tar as the Brnkor offer was concerned, but he
did not agree with him as to tho powers ot the
Sinking Fand Commission.
"It the Corporation Counsel Is right," ho con
tinued, "a most remarkable state ot affairs ex
ists. According to his opinion, it the city has a
right to these roads there Is no board in exist
ence which has tha power to enforce It, When
the question of changing the motive power ot
ihe Broadway road cams up In 1 880 the Sinking
'und Commissioners evidently had some such
power, for It was by their action that the city
was able to make an agreement with tho Metro
politan Traction Company whereby the latter
paid Into the publlo treasury the Bum of $150,
OOO a year."
" Do you remember the composition of that
Board ot Sinking Fund Commissioners, Mr.
Ilooorder f" asked the Comptroller slyly.
" I do not," replied Mr. Uoff.
" Well," continued Mr. Fitch, " Hugh J. Grant
was Mayor, Richard Croker was tho City Cham
berlain, and Pat Dlwer was tho Aldurmanlc
member."
" And Justice Bmrth was tho Recorder," put
in Mr. Goff.
"Exactly," said Mr. Fitch, and tho Mayor
It was do eloped that tho Comptroller had
asked both the Sixth and Eighth avenue roads
to file statements of tho cost of their roads per
nillo. and that both had refused to comply with
tbe demand. It was tlnall decided to ask the
officers of the Sixth and Eighth avenue roads to
appear boforo the board nex", Thursday and ex
plain why these statement J havo not been fllod;
also to ask the ofilcors ot the Metropolitan Trac
tion Company to confer with the Commissioner
with a view to reaching an agreement whercbr
the work of Improvement may be prosecuted
without Injury to any tight of tho city.
THAI FIXD OF OOIX8.
Inscriptions on Some or Thorn a Translated,
by an Bzaert.
A story was published in The Sun three
weeks ago which told about the finding of a
number ot curious old coins on the Caslna
beach, a mile and a half north of Astoria, That
started men and boys looking for treasure, but
nono was found until Wednesday, whon there
waa a particularly rich And, as already pub
lished. Since then nothing has beon done by the
men and boys but look tor treasure.
Down at tho beach yesterday whore the coins
had been found were groups of eager searchers
when the tide was low, and one man hadadlvln
lng rod which wouldn't work. All day long ho
wandered up and down the beach, giving tho rod
every chance in tho world to strike "pay dirt."
but It wouldn't strike for a cent. It iust wab
bled about in tho most inconsequential way. to
the disgust of Its owner and the edification of
the small boys who puddlod around with their
bare feet, scorning other aids than their own
sharp eyes.
In the mean tlmo the mystery of tho coins
continues to grow. Tbe coins found Wednesday
aro of the same general character as those found
three weeks ago, savo In this case thero wero
three gold colnn In a reiuurkable stato ot preser
vation. The men who found the coins wore
Hans Petersen, Charles Jansen, and C.J. Sulli
van. Liko tho first coins, they were found be
neath boulders at low tide.
There were several mutilated sliver coins, one
of which was evidently Spanish, and another an
Elltabethan half shilling dated 10111. The gold
coins are thin, ot tho sire ot a q uartor, and on
one the milling Is still preserved. On the ob erso
is n king In full armor, holding In the left hand
a globe, and in tho right a sceptre. About it Is
this Inscription:
"RVDOL II D G R IM SA G II BO REX."
This may be translated as " Rudolph II., by
grace of God Emperor of tho Romans, King of
Saxony, Gallcln, Hungary, und Bohemia." On
the reverse Is what is now tbe double-headed
eagle of Atntria, with tho Inscription:
AItCIIII AVS I,VX BVR MA MO 1503."
Moaning " Archduko of Austria, Luxemburg
and Burgundy, and Margrasoot Mor.ivla."
The second gold coin has on Its obverso a man
in royal robes, with tills Inscription:
"S LADISLAVH REX 1591) "
Saint Lndlslaus was Ktng of Hungary, but not
at thut time. On tho rovorso Is the figure of a
queon seated and about It Is the Inscription:
"RVDOLII DG RO-I AV GLHV D R."
Between the O und the I is a sign similar to a
Orcok omega fllled in nt the bottom, which was
often used us an abbreviation for "orum."and
tha Inscription might be mado to read " Rudolph
IL. by grace of (Toil Emporor of the Romans,
King of Gallcia. Hungary, and Bohomla." Tho
AVprobtbly does not moan Austria, for thoro
was no king of that country, and tho letters
probably BUnd for tho Latin " Augustus."
Tho third gold rain has not yet beon submlttod
to an export. It resembles tho other two In slxo
and weight. Ou the reverse. Inclosed In a
square, aro tbe words:
MOORDI
rnuviN
BEIGAE.

Eddlo Connolly of St. John, New Brunswick,
fought at won ty-round draw with JnckDalyof
Wilmington at the Broadway A. C. last night.
It was Connolly's first appearanco In tho ring
since his defeat at tho hands of Kid Lnvlgno,
and tho sports expoctod him to win In declslvo
fashion. In Daly ho found a hard, woll-tralnod
pugilist, who knew how to both glva and tako
punishment. In fact, on severnl occasions
Daly made the spectators bellovo that ho
might ultimately win. Connolly did not show
theBpeed with which ho was equipped when ho
mot tho light-weight champion. Ho was oaro.
ful nt all ttmos, nnd did not scorn to enre about
mixing things with his doughty rival. It would
have been an Interesting contest If It had gono
ton finish. The crowd did not number more,
than 1,000. Manager O'Rourko said thnt tho
club ofQclnls had rcconstdored tholr plan of
shutting down, and would run shows this sum
mor while he Is In California with Dixon nnd
Walcott. Tho bouts wcro all retereed by Sam
Austin, who gavo satisfaction.
Larry Becker of Bayonno mot Eddlo Hayes ot
this city In tho first preliminary bout of tan
rounds at 128 pounds. Becker, who had a six
foot floral horseshoe tn his coruor bearing tho
words " Coming Champion," forcod tho issue all
tho way through, and got tho verdict.
Tho second battle was Bomewhat sonsatlonaL
It was botweon Istdor Strauss of Philadelphia
and Jim Ferus of Kansas City, who were to go
ton rounds at 138 pounds. The moment the
first bell rang Ferus rushod In hurrl
cano style, and In a clinch ho throw
his opponont to the floor. For this ho received n
warning from tho referee, and Inspector Allalro
also ordered the men to stop such rough tactics.
Ferus, however, couldn't fight within the lottor
of tho rules nnd threw Htrnuss again, n hereupon
tho bout was stopped by the referoo and Ferus
was disqualified.
Connolly and Daly woro matched for twenty
rounds at 138 pounds. The betting was Inrgoly
In tho former's favor. Connolly was handled by
Jimmy Kelly, Joo Chonskl, Tim McGrath, nnd
Tom Lansing, In Daly's corner were Jimmy
Fogarty, Denny Holloran, Jimmy Howard, and
Charley McGlnnls.
Connolly demonstrated Immediately that he
was far and away tho cleverer tighter. In tho
first round he found an opening for a left on tho
Jaw and Daly's knees doubled up. Jack recov
ered quickly and took no ohancos during the
rest of tho round. Connolly continuod to do tho
work In tho second, Daly sending In severnl
heavy counters tn the body. In tho third Daly's
tactics were conllned to lefts for the hood, fol
lowed by rights for tho body. Connolly soon
mads his opponent clinch by uppor cutting him
hard and pounding him on the neck with his
right.
Connolly forced his man to a corner continu
ally In the fourth and began putting lu bis blows
with more strength and rapidity than In tho
preceding rounds. Daly was vory strong In
countering, nnd Eddie took good care to block
off his heavy right. Daly mot his man In tho
fifth with a couple of heavy heart blows and a
powerful left-haud counter on the Jaw. The
sixth round was very even, Daly meeting his
rival with some powerful punches.
Daly had a slight advantage In tho seventh,
for he mtxod It up and camo within an ace ot
flooring Connolly with a couple of swings on
tha Jaw. In tho eighth thoy mixed It up with
tho result that honors were practically oven.
Connolly cut Daly's left eye open in the ninth,
and the latter began to show signs of weakness
In the legs, as ho fell down tw ice In clinches and
Tha bridge of Connolly's nose was cut In the
tenth, and Eddie rushoc in with several tndv
tmnches and n left on tho Jaw which sent Jack
down. Daly rolled over like a rubber ball,
leaped to his feet, and rushed into a clinch. He
was not hurt. Daly had tho eleventh round,
as he did some effective rushing, and
used a freo right hoavlly on his oppo
nent's ribs. Connolly got tho worst of a
warm mix up In the twelfth, Dal 's punches bo
lng docldcdly heavier and more cleanly deliv
ered. Connolly braced In the thirteenth mid
sent Daly half way down with a couple of quick
lofts In the stomach. He also swung n loft to
tho Jaw. which proved to be a staggerer. Daly
threw in Borne chopping blows, which mado
Eddie's nose bleed again.
Connolly forced tho fighting In the fourteenth
and had an advantage, which, however, was
nothing to boas' of. In tbe fifteenth Connolly
landod somo telling right-handers on the Jaw.
which put Dal) on ths defensive. Connolly put
plenty ot steam behind his swings in tha
slxtoenth, and Daly, who seemed to be grow
ing weak, narrow) escaped being floored twice.
It was oiin up In tho set cntcenth, both apjiear
ingto by n trine tlrod from t heir previous efforts.
Duly did more leading than tho other fellow In
the eighteenth, but neither had strength enough
to land any dangorous blows. Connolly braced
again In the nineteenth nnd had the round. Daly
cut loose lu tho last round and Connolly simply
blocked him off. The decision was a draw and
met w 1th general approval.
