TIIE CIIICAGO TRIBUNE: SATURDAY JUNE I, 1878—TWELVE PAGES. _—————-—_———,—_—_—,—,—_—,—,—,—,———" e —_— Indications that sshen the matter {s bronght to the attention of the British Government it may propose the adoption of n reciprocity treaty part or tlf vasment of the award. It Is hardly poseitile that such an offer will be accepted. The Scnate passed the Legislative, Exccutive, and Judicial Appropriation bill to-day with few nmendments, except those recommenited by the Committee. While there are several hundred amendments, they consist principally in restor- ing salaries to the amounts agreed upon nsn *basls of rompromise between the two Houses in 1878, Tho Senate resisted and yoted down ail smendments regarding any salary berond the amount agreed unon at that time.” The Confer- ence Committee which will bo appointed by the Senato will ba expected to insist upon the nmendments as far a8 therestoration of salarica is concerned, and it Is hardly probable that an: report which fails to do this 'will be sanctione: by the Scoate.
