ness and for his pr es en tation at the bar

Senator Sherman Speak..
The tariff bill was taken up at 10:30,
and the amendment offered by Mr. Hale
to make the duty on sawed boards $2
per thousand feet was defeated. Yeas,
22; nays, 81.
A vote was then taken on the amend¬
ment offered by Mr. Allen to place on
the free list all logs, lumber, laths,
shingles and building materials, com¬
monly dwelling used in the construction of,
houses, bams or fences, and it
was Kyle, defeated. Yeas, 4—Alien, Irby,

On motion of Mr. Allen, assmtelto by
Mr. Vest, on behalf of the finance com¬
mittee, paragraph 178, fixing the duties
on lumber struck of any sort plain for or the finished
was out of the bill pur¬
pose of having such lumber afterwards
placed on tbe free list.
At 1) :50 the wood schedule was com¬
pleted, the remaining votes having been
taken without debate. The sugar sched¬
ule having been reached, Mr. Sherman
began a speech bn the pending bill. Al¬
most all of the senators were in their
seats, while a number of members of
the galleries other were house well occupied filled, many sofas. ladies The
being present.
Mr. Sherman cited the Confederate
constitution forbidding a protective tar¬
iff and said he believed tbe opinion in
the sonth was changing on this question.
Mr. Morgan challenged the statement
made by Mr. Sherman that he (Morgan)
had once said he doubted If the dis¬
covery of coaUund & iron in Alabama was
fortunats, as interfered with the pro¬
duction of cotton. industrial Mr. Sherman went
on to show the development
of the south, and said the south wanted
protection for its industries.
Referring briefly to sugar, Mr. Sher¬
man said his friends in the south were
anxious but hopefnl about sugar, and
expected article to and have a duty placed upon least
that if not a duty at
a bounty. In defending the McKinley
bill, he said it had some demerits, one
of them being the bounty on sngar, to
which he was opposed at the time.
Later on, hesaid for the purpose of es¬
tablishing the industry of beet sugar
and also for the purpose of protecting
cane would sugar cheerfully producers for of Louisiana, duty he of
vote the
from I to 3 cents per pound on all sugar
imported into the country. He would
rather do that than give a bounty.
He was glad of the development and of
tbe sonth; it was a good sign,
showed that that section of the country
was prospering as it should do.
The Republican party and indebted the peo¬
ple of the west were
to senators from the sonth for the duty
that bod been given on coal and iron.
They would not have been granted, he
believed, had not coal and iron been
discovered in the sonth.

A THO USAND KILLED.
Heavy Rains Cause n Fearful Catastrophe
on a River in China.
New York, May 31.—A special from
Han-Kow says that 1,000 persons at
least have lost their lives in a catastro¬
phe peculiar to this singular action:
Heavy rains, caused apparently by a
waterspout or “cloudburst-” fell early
last flooding week on the upper Han, suddenly depth of
the lowlands to tbe
several feet.
Two great rafts moored to the bank
were torn away by the maddened wa¬
ters and hurried down stream, smashing
everything in their way for over 200
miles, leaving death and ruin in their
wake. They reached the mouth of the
Han. where it empties into the Yang-
tse-Kiang, Like at huge this place, Friday they night. crashed
into the two junks catapults and them
there a wept
into the Yang-tse-Kiang, where a whirl¬
pool was formed and tne haplees crafts
with their crews were sucked beneath
the furious waters. Six small Chinese
gunboats were sank while trying thus to
rescue the hundreds of persons
placed in jeopardy. Life saving boats
also did what they could, but the cur¬
rent was so rapid that all efforts proved
of little value.
The vast, impetuous volume of water
that rushed out of the Han did much
damage on the opposite shore of the
Yang-tse-Kiang, the over a mile distant,and
to bund in front of the iron worka.
Many frail houses on the bank were car¬
ried away, occupants and all, the water
coming down like a tidal wave, almost
without warning.
Over 400 bodies have been found float¬
ing in the Yang-tse-Kiang below this
place, The and others are found daily. and
Han drains an immense area
its surface is covered with junks and
small craft. The only wonder is that
the destruction was not greater, the pe¬
cuniary loss being confined to the de¬
struction of junks and boats and the
flooding of rice fields, of which no esti¬
mate can be obtained.
Fatal Floods in British Col tun bis.
Vancouver, May 31.—Tbe overflow

struction and loss of life. The valleys

Whole villages on the banks of the
stream are floating. Bo far, seven lives
are known to have been loet.
Poaching la Hudson'* Bay.
» Ottawa, May 81.—In the houoe of
Commons Mr. Mills (Liberal) moved for
copies of all the correspondence since
1867 between the government of Cana¬
da and the imperial government in ref¬
erence to her majesty’s exclusive sover¬
eignty over Hudson’s bay. He com¬
plained that the United Btatee poachers
were operating in these waters owing to
the inaction of the Canadian govern¬
ment Sir Charles Tapper said therfe
were such Tumors afloat, bat that the
government could get no avidance to
corroborate the same.
