Special to the Gazette
Washington June 27 There are ru
mors that the Demoorats will absent
themselves from the house when a vote
is reached on the Federal election bill
The Republicans are being notified that
they must be in their plnoes Uo pairing
on either side will be allowed It
is also said that at least six
Republicans will vote against the bill
so if the Democrats secured their ab
sentees now four in number thero
might be a possibility of defeating the
bill although this it a contingenoy
They cannot however afford to throw
away any chances and they will be o i
deck to vote against the bill
solidly should they conclude not to with
draw from thehall
OUTLOOK FOR DEEP WATEH
The status of the Galveston bill is un
changed from that mentioned in Mon
days Gazette Senntor Coke hopes to
have his amendment to the liver
and harbor bill adopted ap
propriating Si000000 for Galves
ton but as heretofore stated this
is a remote contingency unless be total
of the bill as it now stands can be re
duced to admit Galveston and Hay lake
channel This would require a lopping
off of appropriations in other direc
tions amounting to at least S2000000
The house committee on rules still sleeps
on the proposition to give the original
50200000 Galveston bill a day for con
sideration so that the outlook for affirm
ative legislation is not very promising
Thus the matter stands tonight in the
nine hole
EAGLE PASS MILITARY POST

S3 Washington June 27 It is a mis
taken assumption that Harrison en
dorses Blaines criticism of the McKinley
tariff bill nndhis proposition for such
tariff legislation as will secure recipro
city between the American nations
Harrison is much more closely allied to
McKinley than he Is to his secretary of
state andJs known to favor the MoKIn
ley bill WhtUr Blaine has said be
bos said independently UoKinley took
dinner with the president Wednesday
and had a long conference with him dur
ing the evening It is understood they
discussed Mr Blaines action at length
and that McKinley was assured of the
hearty support of Harrison in his effort
to force the monstrous tariff bill through
congress Blaine is actually leading a
revolt against the administration
There are many who think that his
course is suicidal but If be is committing
suicide he is committing murder also
for if his criticism does not kill the Ilo
Kinley bill it will kill the party which
takes the responsibility for It

THE COUNTRYS TRADE
R G Dnn Cos WeeR y Resume of the
Business World
Condition of Trade Fast and Fresent the Fu
ture Outlook at Leading Mercantile
Centers of the Country
New York June 27 R G Dun
Co s Weekly Review of Trade says
While the whole of trade as indicated by
speoial reports by bank exchanges at In
terior cities and by railroad earnings
continues larger than in the same
month of any previous year
the prospects for the future is ren
dered less satisfactory by industrial
hesitation and by doubt regarding the
monetary outlook The industrial hesi
tation results from the delay of legisla
tion and increased uncertainty regarding
the outcomo Wool is distinctly weaker
in the interior and at Eastern mar
kets and the disposition is shown
to meet the needs of manufacturers
This uncertainty nlso affects tho esti
mates of the future demand for iron
and also the continued addition of new
furnaces weaken that mnrket Cotton
declined tju Wheat has fallen of l e
with better news from the Northwest
while lard and hogs are a shado higher
Coffee is steady but oil has declined 3jSgC
Raw ugar Is 1lCo and crushed o low
er and further concessions on refined
are expected The general level of
prices is lower in part because of a re
action from many specula
tions which the prospect of un
limited silver coinage engendered
Business at other cities is well main
tained for the reason and the exceed
ingly confident tone hitherto prevailing
does not at all abate If there are po
slbilities of disappointment they dont
seem to be realized as yet Boston notes
good demand and higher pi ices for
cotton and leather goods demaud for
lumber nnd large receipts of wool wbioh
tend to weaken the market Chicago
continues confident of a large and profit
able fall trade and statistics
of the board of trade snow an
increase over last year in the grain
business and in seeds A slight
decrease in meats but a gain nf nearly
100 per cent in dressed beef an increase
in lard and a large decrease in butter
The dry goods business exceeds that
of last year and prospects of the
clothing trade for the fall are thought
quite flattering St Louis reports trade
in all lines above the average Mil
waukee notes excellent crop prospects
and good business and trade at Denver
is good An average business is reported
at Kansas City and no change at Pitts
burg except that while Iron mills are
fairly employed rails are lo lower In
all reports whether from North or
South there is a noteworthy absence of
complaint about collectons and money
markets are fully supplied
but the demand is quite
active St Louis and Cleveland closes
upon the supply at Milwaukeewhile it is

Thats What the Mrxlcan Revolution Amounts
To Another Encounter with Fllllbasters
Special to the Gazette
Eagle Pass Tex June 27 Revolu
tion in Mexico is in the air and taany
peoples mouths but it does not seem
anywhere else The most circumstantial
rumor of today Is that a force of rurals
under command of Lieut Call
Maximo Valdez had run upon about
an equal number of filllbusters
at Lampazos about 120 miles south of
this place and got the worst of the en
counter This tiding was brought into
Feidras Negras by courier last nightand
in response a company of thirty cavalry
and thirty impressed recruits under com
mand of Capt Bibaros left this morning
Col Menodize Abal who commands the
Mexican post in Peidras Negras says he
does not regard the lawlessness
in question as having any force
of political signification whatever
but that his men have been
dispatched as a precautionary measure
The Mexican Martinez who is the head
of the mauruding party has no following
of any moment and must not be con
founded with Gen Ignacio Martinez
Tho idea of a revolution against the fed
eral government of Mexico is looked up
on here as chimerical and there certainly
does not seem to be at this hour any
ground for apprehending any movement
in any way threatening the stability ot
affairs on the Rio Grande frontier Jefe
Politico of this district accompanied the
troops this morning

senate committee to whioh tho lottery
bill passed by the house last Wednesday
was referred reported it back increas
ing the amount to be paid by the Louisi

000000 and for the entire period
of twentyfive years 531230000 In
stead ot 525000000 The chnngo was
due to Mr Lawton of Algiers who

million to the amount offered by the
English syndicate This was agreed to
by the friends of the lottery company

sult caused general rejoicing not only
among the men themselves most ot
whom had begun to realize their

and tbat the cause was inadequate
considering the magnitude ot the inter
ests involved but nlso the general offi
cers of the company felt that a heavy
burden of anxiety was lifted from their
shoulders When the announcement
was brought up from Eighteenth street
that tlTe men were ready to go to work

ness were at once begun end it was an
nounced after 430 p m that all trains

entire surrender of the men He said

been curtailed and he would contic e to
give orders as ho had always given He
said it had always been the usage of the
road for the division superintendent to
eive orders only to his immediate in
