the scope of Its legislation, dwelt upon
a number of Important subjects, both
tn and out of executive sesMon. One of,
those which attracted world-wide at
tention was the arbitration treaty ne
gotiated by President Cleveland with
Great Britain. After exhaustive con
sideration, despite the great pressure
brought to bear upon the senate by re
ligious and commercial bodies, the
treaty w as rejected.
The Hawaiian treaty of annexation
negotiated by President McKinley was
still unacted upon when, congress ad
journed.
In open session, after much debate,
the senate passed the Cuban belliger
ency resolution, a bankruptcy bill in
cluding both voluntary and involuntary
features, and the "free homes" bill.
But none of these important ques
tions received consideration in, the house.
The following minor bills and Joint
resolutions became laws, managing to
escape objections from any member:
Authorizing the secretary of war to
receive for instruction at the military
academy at West Point Carlos Guiter
rea of Salvador; to amend an act en
titled "An act to provide for the entry
of lands in Greer county, Oklahoma;
to give preference rights to settlers and
for other purposes," approved January
18, 1897; re-appropriating $10,000 not ex-
pendedi for the relief of the Mississippi
river flood sufferers, at El Paso, Texas;
authorizing foreign exhibitors at the
Transmtssisslppl and International ex
position to be held in Omaha, Neb., dur
ing 1898 to bring to the United States
foreign, laborers from their countries re
spectively for the purpose of preparing
for and making exhibits; to provide for
the Immediate repair of dryi dock num
ber three at the New Tork navy yard;
making appropriation for the improve
ment of the Mississippi river and to sup
ply deficiencies in appropriation for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1897, and
three bills authorizing the construction
of hridees across the Pearl river in Mis
sissippi; the St. Louis river between
Minnesota and' Wisconsin, and across
the Clinch river in. Tennessee.

ZANTE CURRANTS
One Great Question Simply Gets More
Mixed
SAN FRANCISCO, July 25.—1f the
bill as it passed the senate is the same as
was reported by the conference com
mittee, on which subject there were no
advices to the collector, the customs of
ficials have already found one provision
which is likely to cause trouble to im
porters until it has been adjudicated by
ihe courts. It is undoubtedly the re
sult of an oversight, but on that account
will not prove any th? less troublecome.
This provision is in relation to the duty
on currants. Section 261 of the schedule
provides that the duty on "apples,
peaches, currants, etc.," shall be 25 cents
a bushel. But section 263 provides that
the duty on a number of fruits, In
cluding- "currants, Zante or other," shall
jbe 2 ecnts a pound. Which la to govern
will be a question that Importers will
undoubtedly raise.

RAILROADS IN CHINA
COME VERY EXPENSIVE, AND
ALSO SLOW
No Work Done Yet Beyond a Prelim
inary Engineer's Report and
Expense Estimate
SAN FRANCISCO, July 25— W. W.
Rich of Minneapolis, chief engineer of
the Minneapolis, St Paul and Sault
St. Marie railway, was a passenger on
the steamer China, from the Orient.
Mr. Rich has Just concluded several
months' stay in China, where he has
been engaged in making a reconnols
sance of the territory lying in the route
of the proposed Peking and Hankow rail
road for the information of the Chinese
government.
Speaking of his work in China, Mr.
Rich said: "I was simply employed to
make an examination and make an en
gineer's report on the proposed line, with
traversed the 'enfif e'c'oUrtrVy TflSift.
Peking and Hankow, but I made no sur
vey. The line, when completed., will be
about 700 miles long, and will run
through a country partly level and
partly hill. It will be very difficult of
construction, and would call for many
difficult engineering feats, solely on ac
count of the many rivers and streams
that cut up the entire country. I made
an estimate of the cost, but I would
rather not say anything about the mat
ter, for the reason that my business
with the Chinese government is of a
confidential nature."
Mr. Rich was unable to say whether
the Belgian syndicate that had beer,
credited with securing the concession for
the construction of the road would, carry
out the undertaking.As yet'no work has
been done beyond that which he himseU
has performed at the solicitation of the
Chinese government.

McNally Swims the Eng

HIS RECORD BREAKING PACE
CONTINUED FOB FIFTEEN LONG
HOURS
Diamond Medal Bowing at San Fran
cisco—Record Pistol Shooting.
Sprinter's Record
Associated Press Special Wire.
LONDON, July 25.—Pat McNally, who
was scheduled to make an. attempt to
swim the English channel on Juiy 4, tel-
egraphed to the Associated Press today
from Calais that he made the crossing
yesterday. He says he started from
Dover at 11:30 in the morningand wasin
the water fifteen hours, in which time he
covered thirty-five miles. He landed at
2:30 oclock In the morning at a point
three miles from Cape Grlznez.
McNally left the admirality pieT at
Dover in the presence of a crowd at 11:20,
Intending to go merely for a trial swim.
A lugger manned by two local sailors
accompanied him. McNally's trainer,
Brown, of Boston, and one London jour
nalist, were also on board 1 the accompa
nying boat. McNally swam steadily at
the rate of one and one-half miles an
hour. Four miles out the temperature
had fallen to 62 degrees, and the weather
was foggy. Si miles out the fog lifted,
and all circumstances were so perfect
that McNally announced, his Intention to
cross the channel. He had been heading
direct for Calais, but a strong west cur
rent had drifted him to a position nearly
off Folkestone. He. now took refresh
ment, consisting of beef extract and gin
ger and a long piece of American
chewing tobacco. He swam almost con
tinuously with a breast stroke, with oc
casional changes to a side stroke for re
lief, but never swam on his back, which
he explains interferes with the action of
the muscles.
At 4 oclock the Varne lightsbip was
seen by the swimmer. One and a half
hours later he passed' the Varne, which
proved' Captain Webb's greatest diffi
culty when he attempted to swim the
channel. At 10 oclock McNally began
to show signs of eqhaustion, but contin
ued. From this time until 2 oclock the
temperature of the air grew lower. Mc-
Nally suffered severely, the swelling of
his hands giving his great trouble, and
he was seized with cramps' in his legs,
neck and arms and the passage of his
nose and' mouth became swollen so that
breathing was difficult.
At 2:30 he had reached a noint. within
commenced to splash wildly. He was
blinded by the salt water, and they tried
to persuade him to get into the boat. He
immediately became unconscious, but
upon being rubbed, gradually revived.
Owing to change of tide the boat had
great difficulty in reaching Calais, It
arrived there, however, at 5:30 oclock.
McNally quickly recovered from his
exhaustion and crossed to Dover by the
mid-day boat. Tonight he looked fairly
well.

Cruel Joke

leged message from one of the men on
the ill-fated schooner Lincoln was found
today on the beach just around the

round quart bottle. It was signed by
Charles Swanson, no date, and stated
that the Lincoln was doomed and that
"We have taken to the boats five miles
off Campbell Island."
The message closed by saying that as
they left the ship she was Blnklng fast.
The bottle was corked, not sealed, and

young man, said that the cork looked
"old." There was a little water in the
bottle.
