Chicago, Sept. 29.—The great parlia
ment of religions has been brought ^>an
impressive close. Every seat in tba vast
Hall of Columbus was occupied, and
gathered on the stage were the truth
seekers, who had made the parliament
the center of so much interest.
The oriental priests wore arrayed in
their brilliant costumes, and gave a live
ly tint to what would otherwise have
been a sombre picture. Every religion
that has been presented to the parlia
ment bad a representative on the stage.
The regular program had been
pleted at the afternoon session.
The evening session was devoted to
farewell sentiments from the scholars
who have contributed so materially to
the success of tba parliament. Tba
Buddhists were strongly represented and
they left a message of peace, rood will
and brotherhood of man. They held
that the parliament had accomplished a
great good. It had sent good tidings of
tolerance to all parts of the world. It
had shown that there was good in all re
ligious. and a large measure of truth in
most of them. It would result in the
men” might be reached.
The Bmidhi __
ally pleased over the results of the par
liament.
The Armenian and Greek chnrch left
words of peace and love. The Ptorb of
the Mahometan, Jewish and Zarastrian
faiths were quoted, applauded ami left
with the parliament The Christian rep
resentatives ware not outdone in toler
ance by the orientals, and each denomi
nation made • fitting farewell.
Tba parliament of religions, a con
ception of which great men have dreaded
for centuries, has become a realised fact
and b now a part of history. Intense
interest has been manifested from the
opening day nntil its close, and speakers
as distinguished and interesting as those
who hold the attention of thousands of
listeners in the first day were present to
■xprewi their vidws on tho great religious
topics of today.

Washington, Sept. 29.—The commit
tee on banking and currency, of the
boose, had a hearing on the Oates 1411
for the repeal of the 10 per cent tax on
state banks.
The Oates trill varies from the others
in that it simply “suspends” the tax
to notes issued to circulate as money,
provided there shall first be deposited
with the state treasury, or other safe de
pod tory, an amount of lawful money of
the United States or solvent bonds of the
par value of the state or ■mnldpalitles,
equal to the aggregate amount of notes
proposed to be issued, which shall be
held aa security; and provided also, that
“ aggregate amount of such state bank
m shall in no case exceed |5 i*-r cap
ita of the population ot th# state.
Colonel Ostes made an elaborate argu
ment in favor ot hia 1411, which, hesaid,
maintained federal supervision, with
limitation of what had been declared by
the courts to be a lawful federal tax.
