TARIFF BILL IN SENATE.

Senators Brandegee and Bulieiey voted in the affirmative. After the vote had been taken there war, an_effort to reach an agreement upon & time for voting for the various income' and corporation tax proposi- tions. Mr. Aldrich.sought to obtain a general agreement to postpone the further consideration of this question, until_after the disposal of the tariff schedules, but Senators Bailey and Cummins insisted upon coupling with the agreement an understanding that there should be taken a direct vote upon the adoption of an income tax amendment, and no agreement was reached. By Cwder of the senate, adjournment is taken each day at 7 p. m._and that hour arrived while the ques was under discussion. The Bailey income tax amendment, therefore, will be the pending amendment when the senate cenvenes tomorrow. If a unanimous consent agreement in accordance with the motion adopted by Mr. Aldrich today is not them obtafined, he prob- ably will move to postpone considera- tion of these subjects to a certain day.

Uefendant Admits That Signature of Former President W: New York, June 18.—The authentic- ity of two’words on a slip of paper in a glass case—‘Grover Cleveland”"— diout which the trial of Brough'on Erandenburg, the magazine writer, charged with grand larceny for the sale to the New York Times of an aiticle purporting to have been writ- ten by Mr. Cleveland, has largely cen- tcved so far, dropped somewhat from taefr place of importance today, when Yrandenburg’s counsel announced that Fis client would admit that the sigra- t're was a forgery, not that of the f.amer president of the United States. This rather surprising turn in the se came after Richard Watson Gil- Forgery. der, the veteran magazine writer,when'| shown the signature, decl: em- pletically on the stand that the signa- ture as shown hi was not that of his 13 friend, Grover Cleveland. At this point Brandenburg’s lawyer interpos- ed a statement. “We do not contend.” he said, “*har signature in the glass case is gen- u fter Mr. Gilder and Mrs. Cleve- l61d have said it was not, we would ro:_possibly presume to say it was." “That's news to me,” said Assistant trict, Attorney Nott. “You'vve nro- goted rlgnt along that # was genu- e We_have not” repljed the lawyer for (N3 dafensc. “We are willing to st.pulate that the signature in the giess case is- not genuine.” As if approving the stand taken by bis_counsel, - Brandenburg turned and spoke. “We intend to show,” he said, “that the forged signature was substituted for the realwone. I mever .saw this signature till the trial commenced.” The prosecution rcsted its case to- ey h DISTRICT NURSE'S WORK. Made 192 Calls During Month of May —Many Secure Her Services. City Missionary C. A. Northrup states that during the month of May the district nutse under the auspices of the United Workers has made 192 calls. Her expenses were $13.50 and she has received $14.35, with an out- standin gsum of $4.80 to be collected. She has at present 29 cases to at- tend to and of these 15 are acute and 14 chrenic. There has been one death during the month. The state hospital very kindly fur- nishes the _services of the district nurse, to call on daily and care for those who otherwise would not be able to have this care. And many others, in better circum- stances, have availed themselves of this opportunity to receive skilled treatment at a yery moderate price. The United Workers are very grafe- ful to the state hospital for this kind co-operation. four sessions a week. In making this statement it ought to be added that the house Is essentially a one-big- ter-a-day body this session, that afte neon sessions of the house accomrlish n.thing whatever toward bringing the end of the session nearer, and Friday sessions for this house are out of ihe @i estion, all of which may be regarded as aximatic. There is on the foot of the calendar in the senate, among oth- ¢r matters, the act concerning the yol- iution of water and ice, the regulation of stweet trades for children, seats or stools for motormen, the state tax. the escheating of savings bank deposits, the Billard company charter, and a cipte hoard of education bill, all of which will cause good stiff scraps in {1.c senate. And there are a mumbar of I atters which haze retained their pisces on the regular calendar that are i1 the same category. At the foot of the house calendar arc the application-for-license bill, abolishing the unanimous vote of the buard of pardons,certificates for school teschers, the Connecticut river bridge, tke drug law, and sanitary districts, ali f which are /bound to cause hard fiphts, and a number of measures of lik:é caliber, such as exempting Bantsm Lake water from Waterbury's water sapply, have retainéd their place on the regular calendar. Oh, but that's not all, and the public utiities commission bill is by no means fe rest of it. Nobody knows how much time the latter matter will take when it is finally reported on June 22. 1t might string along for a month and might very readily take a couple of v ceks, if everything else were out o7 the way. But of the ‘rest of it. There are in the hands of committees, and executive seisions have decided the fate of most of them so far as the committee is corcerned, forty matters—and this is conservative—on whish there will be «xtended debate in one or both houses. “he employers' liability bill, the cor- tupt practices act, the electiicity low, right rates for telephones, procreation, e Australian ballot, the Sunday law, tie $5.600 Timit for Jeath dameges, 'he ceagpiracy law, armory and monument aprropriations, the egg bill, a haif doz- €1 excise matters, the inheritance tax, Lewrs of labor for women and children. #avbage transportalion and the Esst Lyme fish mill situation, meat inspec- tion, the prevention of importation of toterculosis cattle,. the optometry act, r pealing the harber commission liw, tne dental law, five cent trolley fares. tuxing oyster grounds—I've ~named fiom twenty-five to thirty there, and tacre are more.
