Mr. Turner was subjected to a steady crow-Are during his entire speech yesterday, and the sharp qu-stions and quick retorts added an unusual In terest to the tariff discussion. Arter Th* Stab's ?'Port closed Mr. Mliliken asked permission to put a question, and there followed quite a sharp tilt over the trusts. Mr. Mliliken?Does the gentleman consider that the tariff is at fault in connection with the Stand ard Oil trust? Mr. Ray ner?That is a very pertinent question. Mr. Mliliken?Dues not the gentleman know that there is no protective duty on petroleum? KaJr.n1er?^There are thirty-one of these trusts a?Uve operation; and out of the thirty-one are protected by tariff duties, as I can P - The .standard oil ca Is one or the Ave that are not affected by a protective tariff; but 1 think l nave the right to advert to it In this connection. A Member?(low about the sugar trust? MJ-K-rner?It would be crushed, too, a thou, sand times ir the duty were taken off refined sugar. "L,ken~wllJr has it not been taken on in the Mills bill? Mr. Kayner?Is there no other article nmong four thousand that mi^ht be enumerated on which gentlemen can ;isk to have the duty removed? Why h slQfle article and ruin one state? Why not distr.bute the reduction equitably and rationally among various articles? Mliliken?Was not the standard Oil trust, with petroleum unprotected, the pioneer, as the gentleman calls It, In these "truj>ts,' and the great est and worst of all? Mr. Kayner?It was. Mr. Mliliken?'Then how can the gentleman lay the blame to the tariff? 8 Mr. Kayner?1 will come to the other trusts if gentlemen will let me proceed for a few moments. Mr. Mliliken?Let me say to the gentleman that 1 am with him in regard to these "trusts." I will go as far as he win in crushing them out. I have already Introduced two resolutions looking to an examination Into the sugar trust; but a demo cratic committee of this liouse has refused to re port those resolutions Iavorably. Mr. Kay uer? I am In the same boat with the gen 11' m in. 1 have had a bill before the committee for three mouths, and It appears to be burled In the tomb of the Capulets?to be sleeping the sleeD that knows no waking. Mr. cannon?Will tae gentleman allow me a question? * Mr. Kayner?Certainly. Mr. Cannon?Am I to understand that the gen tleman In condemn lug the standard OH Co. speaks for the present Administration, of which Mr. Cleve land is the head? ?N'r" Kayner?Mr. Cleveland is not the president of the standard oil ca Mr. cannon?I am asking whether the gentle man, in condemning the standard Oil Co., speaks for the Administration. Mr. Kayner?So, sir; I do not speak for the Ad ministration at alL I have never even had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Cleveland. I am the only man on the democratic side who has never seen him. [Laughter.J I cannot speak for him at ail. I do not even speak for Mr. Lamont. Mr. cannon?I would like to follow that ques ?? ?r: hot tue gentleman know that this Amlmstratlon has appointed one of the principal representatl\es of tue standard Oil Co. at least by relation and probably otherwise?the Secretary of the Navy?and that another one is a Senator of the gentleman's own party from the stale of Ohio? Mr. Kayner-Do you think the tact that a man is the son-in-law of somebody connects him with the fraud of which that person may be guilty suppose y\>ur father-in-law or son-lu-law were en gaged in some conspiracy to defraud the people- I would not hold you responsible. [Laughter 1 I believe 1 can vouch for Secretary Whitney that he has not the slightest connection in the world with the standard oil Co. Bui it does not make any dlfferance who is connected with it. I do not care wue: Uer the men engaged in It are democrats or republicans, silver men or greenbackers. 1 do not care w,io has any connection with it; it is the greatest fraud on the people that has ever been perpetrated. .Mr. cannon?Let me ask ,1,;Yr;,I?r,u^nJr!slu^|y want ,0 dei?y the im putation that has been cast upon .wll}f?.SliiMrIuan~ l he Kectleinan from Illinois on the It ft [Mr. cannon] has the floor. ,Jri?tS?25^J.t,aJ!,,ears'lUen-tUftt in condemn ing the standard on Co.

However un propltious the month of April was, the members of the military companies expected on the 1st of May to have their white pantaloons ready -to wear, whll-; the boys got out their summer suits of white pants and black Jacket, and the girls their light-colored lawns and straw hats. It was then customary lor the military companies to proceed on May Day to the woods, and spend the tZZlZ?* returning home with dog- i wood blossoms, honeysuckle, and other wild flow ?Siif5?luuz/tei of thWr musket* often with tae wild flowers were mingled lilacs, furnished br some delighted farmer's family.
