used for coloring outton goods. Bucbansn
wanted the articles on tho free list to come
into this country In American vessels only
but this proposition was rejected.
Daring the consideration of tbs army ap
propriation bill in the Senate yesterday
no action was ta ken, but the question of
tbe defence of the country came up, and
Senator Gorman spoke on Senator Haw
ley's amendment to give to the Ordinance
Bureau «6,300.000 to Improve the defences
He wanted the door opened to private en
terprise, sod insMed that the present
methods of tbe Ordinance Department arc
an effectual bar to the adoption by the
government of the work of private inven
tors. He recited some instances in which
this was the case, particularly that of Lieu
tenant Zaliuski with hi* dynamite gun.
Senator Hawley characterised Gorman's
scheme as monstrous and tbe most expen
sive that could be devised. It had been 13
years since a dollar bad been spent cn
coast defences. It had been two or three
years since there had been money enough
to oat tbe grass at tbe forte. There was
only one siege gun in the country and 30
smaller pieces, and where would we be in
case of war? John Koscb's experience
with the Democratic administration, be
said, is preventing manufacturers from
making any bids to do work fer it.

good men on it won Id not have had this
reflection cart upon them. I have made it
every man's duty to find those things, and
36 of them ere now doing detective duty,'*
At 12 o'clock the things bad not been re
turned . The members of the force who
have no connection with tho matter take it
very much to heart and are making every
effort to find out who the offenders are.

died somewhere and left a large fortune,
and offering tbe mayor one third ot this
fortune it he would discover anything In
relation to it and pay the amount
over into into Bergier's hand. Qaliioa Is
supposed to have died without hairs. His
