There was a good deal of anxiety on the republican sidountil the decision of the democrats was made known, WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN. The democratic senators are just beginning to realize that they mighthave defeated the tariff bill or at least given its advocates serious trouble if a full representation of democratic senators had been on hand for the final vote. While that vote shows Senators Plumb, Pettizrow and Paddock asthe only republicans who voted aginst the bill yet republican senators admit today that ti had hard work to keep thedefection from en- bracing three more senators, These were Picrce, Casey and Tizalls, A west- ern senator said tod that he was at _home in the wost last Saturd when his republican colleagues telegraphed him that his vote was absolutely essentialto thepassage of the bill. When he got here he found that the republican tariff man: were seriously counting on o defection of six, made up of the senators heretofore named. The democratic senators now see that if they had thoroughly understood the extent of this defection the uld have sum- moned all theirabsent colleagues and given therepublican tariff leaders a hard struggle over the bill.

Then, in a fit of ungovernable passion, Sir Thomas threw himself upon his guest and seizel him by the throatand all but strangled him, while the others rifled his pockets, finally proaucing the keys. Among these was thekey 10 a box contafingthe liters and photos. Taking possession of this, SirThomas hurried away 1 St. George's club, of which Gibson was a member, and where be had left the coveted articles in charge of the porter.
