Wasinxoton, D,C., May 6—Tha Ways and Means Committee to-day passed over tho Brenter portion of the remainder of the pro- posed new Tariff bill, but was unable to fin- ish It, and postponed the final vote until Saturday. When tho Committes adjourned yesterday the proposition pending was the motion of Wood ‘to place wood-pulp and all other pulps for the manufacture of paper upon the free lst. This was somewhat out of the regular order in the bill, The Com- mittee, near the end of its proposed bill, had recommended a tariff of 10 per centum ad valorem on wood-pulp forthe manufactureofl paper,—manifestly a tariff for protection, as under the present duty of 20 per cent ad valorem the revenue yielded for the fiscal yenr was but $152, Conger and Frye had very resolutely opposed Wood's proposition, and this morning It was decided to postpone consideration of the subject vatil it should be regularly reached in its order in the bill. TIE FREE List. ‘ThoCommittee decided to place the follow- ing articles upon the free list: Barks used in medicine, particularly those from which qul- nine and its modifications aro made; extract of hemtock; cut nails and sptkes; cast-iron butts and hinges, ‘This, in addition to the concessions of yesterday, is all that the whold Committee could do in the way of a free list. Itis nota very magnificent concesston, The customs last year from all these grades of bark was only $1,590. Extract of hemlock ylelded Inst year $50,496, but the New En- gland tanneries need more henilock; the native supply {s exhausted, A number of owners of largo tanneries have purchased vast tracts of Cnnada hemlock timber, and have reduced the essential element of bark which Is tised for tanhing to what {g called “extract of hemlock,” and wish to put It in on the free list. So It has gone there, The present duty on it. is 2% percentad valorem, and the New En- gland tanners have been trying for years to Get it placed on the free list, But nalls and spikes last year, at one-half cent per pound, ylelded the magnificent sum of $107, The Ways and Means Committeo can afford to put that item on the free list, Cast-lron butts and hinges, at 134 cents per pound, yielded lnst year a total revenue of $44, and that goes on the free list. TYPES AND TYPE-METAL, which ore now taxed 25 per cent ad valorem, were not placed on the free list, but the dutyon them was. reduced to 10 per cent. At per cent Inst year the total revenue from types and type-motal was $2,866. ‘Tho Committee decided to simplify the present dutics on cottons, which range from 85 per centto 45 por cent ad valorem. and to fx them at 80 per cent nd valorem. On all grades of wool (which has a wide rnnge of duty according to classification under the pres- ent tariif) the duty 1s fixed at 80 per cent ad valorem, Thosamerate was putupon carpets and carpeting, tho present range of duty on which is from 40 to 60 per cont. Steel rails woro placed at 1 cont por pound, 6 reduction of {cent per pound. Locomotive tires were fixed at 134 cents per pound, the present rate being 3 cents, Auvils were placed at 1 cents per pound, tho present rate belng Be cents per pound. Iron cables and cable chaing wore likewise fixed at 13{ per cent, a reduction from tho present rate, which is 2} percent, ‘The total amount of revenie Ins year froin these articles at the present rate of duty was $10. THE FARMERS were remembered to some extent in the par- apraph on. chaing, trace chains, and halter chains, the duty being reduced from 33¢ cents per pound to 14/ cents, Horseshos nalis were reduced from 6 cents per pound, the Prpsent tariff, to 2}¢ cents per pound. Yet his reduction, so inagnanimously made by the Ways and Means Committee, can scarce ly materially affect the public revenues, as the total customs receipts from thissourco for Inst year was $2, Blacksmiths’ hammers, sledge: saws, files, sewing-machine needles, an jackknives were fixed at 25 per cent ad Valorem, the present rate of duty varying, Chromate of potash was reduced one-half, or tom 4 to2cents per penne On the artlcte of opitm the Committee raifed the tarlift from §1 to $10 per pound on al! preparations Imported for making it. Of course the ob- jectof thisduty {sto provent tho rapid In- erease of the opium habit in this country, the inereasa which is notable since the influx of Chineso population.

THE LOBBY, EX-MEMBERS ADUSING THEIR PRIVILEGRS, Special Dispatch tw The Chicago Tribune, Wasuineton, D. C,, May 6.—Tho trouble over the star route appropriation fs hardly over. Although tho mall contractors and the lobby received a very serious defeat in the House to-day in the adoption of Morey’s amendment to relet contracts on expedited routes after Oct. 1, the contractors and their friends on the floor say that this amend- ment was enrrled under inisapprenension, and they will to-morrow make an attempt to reconsider the vote. To-night the lobby is busy getting its furces together for to-mor- row’s work. All day long this lobby has been boldly working on the floor of the House and {n the corridors of the Capitol. An ex-member and ex-Collector of Cus- toms at Charleston, S. C,, was busy calling members from tha cloak-room to the floor to vote. The spectacle has been so shameful that Representative Blount, of the Appropriations Committee, proposes to call the attention of the House to the abuse by ex-members of the privileges of the floor, This privilege is conflued to those who are not Interested in any claim or directly in any bill pending before Congress, Representa- tive Blackburn has an amendment to the’ rules, now pending before the House, provid- ing that when any member of the Houso knows of the violation of this privilege he may report it to the Conimittee on Ries, Mr. Blount has already called attention to the presence of ex-members on tho floor as lobbyists during the dekate on the Star-Service bill, but he has refrained from making special inention of tho facts, as he has been fnterested against the increase of compensation for expedited service, and it inight haye been charged that he made the attacks for the purpose of defeating the De- artment scheme, «\When, however, the fight Is over, he will feel It to bo his duty to Fo ne out to the House the Instances In which ex- members have used their privileges to in- crease thelr usefulness as lobbyists. THE DEBATE. To tha Western, assoctated Prose, Wasninaton, D. C,, May 6.—Tho mornin hour belng dispensed with, the House wen Into Comiittes of the Whole (Carlisle in the chair) on the Post-Oitice Appropriation bill. By a vote, # to 71, the Coimittea adopted an amendment to strike out the proviso for a curtailment or discontinuance of the star servico on star mall routes upon which In- creased compensation for increased expcdi- tion beyond 60 per cent of the original con- tract price bas been allowed during 1870 and During the discussion, before the adoption of the amendment, Mr, Yazelton called at- tention to the fact that the East got ovory- tty, it asked for, but when a step was taken west of the ‘Mississippi River the Committee on Appropriations ruse ond cried out: “What an outrage on the Treasury!” lie would not charge fraud against any ono unless he could prove it on record, and that man was a consumusate coward, whother he belonged to the Committee on Approprin- tions or not, who would impuan the motives of any man high up In the Republic, who would impugn the acts of a departinent or charge it with open fraud uniess he could make good his assertions by therecord, One gentleman said that the contracts should bo abrogated becauso THERE was “swag” attached to them. Another, tho gentleman from Texas (Reagan), contended that uy should be abrogated on the ground ot fraud. ‘That charge came with fll-srace trom a gen. tleman who had once Invited the charity of the House and obtained it. He had brought in a bill for the payment of S$: to Southern. mail contractors, and had stat on his aacred honor that the Confederate Government had never paid any of thom, and It had appeared afterwards that some had been paid. All Mr. Hazelton meant to say was that, while tho gentleman was 80 bold In charging other men with fraud, he was himself in a position to Luvite the charity of the Housoand country, Mr, Rengan—1 made a mistake of fact, and no ona was more ready to acknowledge it, But the feasteinast Js hardly warranted, from. my ‘whole course of life, In saying that t need vell my action before the House or shrink away from. tha discharge of my duty and from exposing villainous contracts of the inail service. Mr, Money offered an smendment provid- ing that all “star routes shall be relet after thirty days’ advertisement, 28 now provided by law, on the lst of October, 1880, on which pay for tho expedition of the schedule for tho ‘scal years 1870 and 1880 shill exceed 50 per cent of the contract price before such expe- dition, provided that this proviso shall not rovall when tho present contractor desires fo continue the contract as reduced, Agreed. to—yons, 83; nays, 20. i ‘Mr, Waddell moved to increaso the appro- piatou for transportation by postal-vara .

The Senate devoted all of the remalnder of the afternoon in a somewhat acrimonious squabbie over the appropriation for the purchase of the old Unitarian Church fora police court. The opposition to the sale Appears to come from the owner of some ad- Jucent property, who served in the Confeder- ate army in a Kentucky organization, and Who has secured the sympathy of the Ken- tuckians In Congress. Several amendments were successively offered and defeated by 10 or 1! majority, the opponents to the bill seek- ing to throw the questions Into a committes of conference when they ascertained that It could not be defeated. SUDGE THURMAN LEFT THE CHAIR, in whieh: he had Just been Installed, to advo- ente the sale of the old church, the Unitarian Socicty needing the money for the extin- gulshinent of the debt on their newchureh of All Souls. He was seconded by Mr, Hoar and other Senators, sume of whom never attend diving services, but appeared anxious to commute by,coming to the rescue of the church, Senator Beck headed the oppu- sition to the use of the property 28 8 pollee court, and was sustained by Messrs, Voorhees, Hereford, Willlains. and others, who contested the uppropriation point by point. Finally, os a last resort, Beck moved an executive session, that Senators might inspect the, bullding, but that was voted down, and it was evident that the ap propriution for the church would have to be made, as It soon after was made, COMMITTEE WORK. A RAILWAY PROJECT. Spectat Dtspateh to The Chicago Tribune, Wasiineton, D.

EVANTS NEALLY MEANS TO DO SOMETHING. Spectal Lusputeh to The Chicago Tribune, Wasuinaton, D. 0. May 6—Secretary Evaris will in a fow days send to the House the documents on the fishery question called for by the resolution just passed. He Is very busy preparlug his reply to Lord Salisbury, which will be a very elaborate review of the whole case argued before the Halifax Com- inission, and will make this point, among others, that it was speclally contended by the English counsel thnt $2,800,000 of the award should go te Newfoundland as com- pensation for the competition by American fishermen which the treaty permitted. This, it will bo insisted, {s'an admission that tho English view at that time was that american fishormen were to be admitted toevery privilege of the Provincial fishing- grounds. If, however, Lord Salisbury’s pres- ent interpretation is ‘correct, American fish- ermen were cut out from all competition with local fishermen: by. local legislation, Under the treaty of 1818 they had substan- tlally the same rights. as they are given by the Provincial laws. The New England members, especially Dr. Loring, will make every effort to have the duty restored on fish, which will Involve a legislative declara- tlon by this Government that England thus violated the treaty. ANOTHER IMPORTANT QUESTION, and ons of more immediate Interest to the Gloucester fishermen who were victims of the Fortune Bay outrages, fs, how they are to be compensated for thelr losses, This isa question which Dr. Loring has attempted to bring Secretary Evynrts to decision on. ‘The former holds that itis evident England never intends to pay thectalm this Government has mad aralngk her, and thatit was held out tothe fishermen by the Government that they had the right ‘under the Washington ‘Treaty to do what the Fortune Bay mob. at- tacked thein for doing. It Is the duty of this Government to pay the clamages Tesulting from the very acts which it lind declare: thoy might rightly and safely do, PAY OF MARSHALS. A CONSERVATIVE DEMOCRATIC MOVEMENT. Spectat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasnrxatoy, D. C., May 6.—Senator Bay- ard Introduced In tho Senate this afternoon abill fixing the pay of election Deputy-Mar- shals at $5 per each day’s actual service, and providing that thescofticers shall beappointed by United States Courts and taken in equal numbers from the cliferent political parties. ‘These officers, according to the bill, ara to be men of good moral character, well-known eltizens, and actual residents of the voting precinct in which their dutics are to be per- formed. All previous .laws Inconsistent with the provisions of the bill are to be repealed, In response to Inquiries to-night, Mr. Daynard sald: “This bill will be reported from the Judiciary Committee on Monday, and I shail strive my \tmost to have it considered and disposed of by the Sonate as soon afterwards as possi- ble,” Mr. Bayard remarked that many Dem- ocrattc Senators agreed with him In regard to the bill, and observed: “1 havo always been opposed to saddiing riders upon Appro- priation bills, and I agree with the President thatthe practice 1s wrong and should be stopped, Ido not desire, however, to have it understood thatL approve of an Execu- tlye veto simply upon the ground that a 8 bill containg a rider, but where a President believes thero {3 au attempt to coerce I have no hesitation In saying that the veto 4s perfectly justiftable and proper,” From Mr, Bayard’s tone st can safely be inferred that the bill Intratuced by him will be" SUPPORTED BY OTHER DEMOCRATS of the conservative cluss, but undoubtedly alll cncounter opposition of the Bourbons who belleva in tha policy of coercing the President to approve thelr policy or bring the operations of tho Government to a stand- stl, Thelr presant plan 1s to combine the appropriation for Marshals’ service already rendered with now legislation In one Dill. Bayard is ready to abandon all this foollsh- ness, and vote appropriations by them- selves In separate bills, which the President may yeto, if he will, without crippling the operations of the Government. He has the Bagaclty to see that if there Isto bein the’ fall campaign an issue between the Demo- cratagand Republicans concerning the Elec-. ‘Vou lows It is wisdom for the Democracy not to embarrass themselves by becoming obnox- fous to the charge of refusing to make appro- printions for the payment of services al- ready rendered under existing laws, 4 NEW DEMOCKATIC VENTURE.

T., wlio had for their guests Most Eminent Sir V. L. Hurlbut, Grand Master of Templars of tho United States, and Right Eminent sirCharles M. Morse, Grand Commander of the State of Ulinois. A large number of Invitations had been issued, and by d o'clock in tho after- noon the hall, excepting the boxes, which had been reserved for the Knights ‘Templar, was filled with a vast concourse of Jadiesand gentlemen. ‘The Sir Knights to the number of about S00 arrived at about a quarter be- fore 6, and a few minutes later the Rev. Dr. ii, W. Thomas appeared upun the pintform and Was received with a combined sniute by the three commanderies, The platform, which was richly decorated with flowers, was also oceupied by the cholr of the First Bapust Church, who, under their lender, Mr. Fred W. Root, conducted the musica! part of the ceremony. ‘The services opened with the chanting b; the choir of the Lord's Prayer, during whic! the Kuights Templar remained kneeling. ‘The **Domini est terra’? was then read re- sponsively by the iminister and the Order, atter which the choir sang Xichter's * fow Beautitul upon the Mountains.” ‘Che Apos tles’ Creed was then recited in concert, and, after the reading of a fow verses from Acts 1, choir sang the hyinn, “Onward, Chris, tlan Soldiers,” in which the audience joined, Tho address of the occasion was then made by the Rey.

The Order of Kulghts Templar, os the speaker. itnderstood it, was {nthe same rela. tlon to Freemasonry asthe New Testament was to tha Old. ‘They were the guspol of Freemusonry. Recognizing the truth that God was reverenced, wherever a Masonic altar was lifted up, it also was true that wherever Knight-Templardom was known there the Christian religion was loved an respected, ‘ho thought had obtained for thousands of joni that matter was evil, and that the spirit ot man coming in contact with matter was carnalized; hence came the old idea that seclusion and punisimentof the body tended to keep tho spirit within it spotless and pure. In the coming of God in the flesh thore was a {ustidcation tn the spirit, which was evidenced in Christ’s life, which showed that the spirit cout be and remain pure In connection with inatter, God was preached to tho Gentiles, and tho same Christ who had sald, ‘The foxes have holes and tha birds of att havo nests, but the Son of Man hath net where to Iny is head,” was now believed In and loved 1h all parts of the varth.
