The vote on Lind-ay’s amendment was: Ayes 52, noes 35 o Populist Senators, Butler and H and two silver Re- publicans, Mantle and Pettigrew, voted and one Democrat, McEnerny, voted no. In the discussion on Lindsay’s amend- ment some amusement was caused by White of C. ornia, who read passages from the speeches of Republican Seanators when the Wilson was pending.

At this point Pett af ew offered his anti- trust amenament. The amendment was eriticized uufavorably by Demoerats Pet- tus, Chi nd Morgan, and denounced by one Republican, Hoar, as *folly and abomination through nd through.” Hoar said he expected when he came to Washington to do all in his power to check 2nd control the evil at which the amendment was aimed, but did not think tariff bill the proper place for such slation. itself. It should be a special bill by He pointed out how three or more people engaged in wool manufactures in Cnicago couid enter into a prohibited combination for the very purpose of baving this proposition put into effect and having wool placed on the free list. There never was, he said, a scheme pro- posed in the wildest flight of imagination that would put gambling speculation and trusts so completely in the control of schemar: Nelson, while favoring the principle of the Pettigrew zmendment, found such radical defects in it that he could not give X support Allison appealed for a postponement of the matter. Pettigrew declined to withdraw the amendment, and said if there were any merely technical delects in it they would be remedied. Allison moved to lay the amendment on the table, which was sgreed t0—35 10 32. Two Democratic Senators, McEnerny and Morgan, sided with the Repubiicans. As =oon as the vote was announced Petti- gTew gave notice that to-morrow he would offer an amendment providing that none of the increased duties in the bili shall apply to any article the sale or manu- facture of which is controlled by trusts in this country. Pasco and Chilton gave notice of amend- ments in the same line. Two paragraphs in schedule were agreed to.

Y, June 15.—Bryan and Tammany Leader Sheeban have made a bargain over the letter Bryan is to write to Tammany regretting bis inability to be preseat at the festvittes on Jaly 4. Bryan is to say in this letter that the cam- paign for Mayor of Greater New York should bo fought on local issues alone and every step d Le taken to prevent Greater New York from becoming a Re- publican stronghold iike Philadelph According to the terms of the bargain no reference is to be made to free silver. In return for such a letter Tammany is | secretly pledged to send free silver dele- gates for Bryan to the next Popocratic National convention.

When Bryan’s friends learned of the bargain they were astounded. They had received Bryan’s letters urging that no backward step be taken from the Chicago platform. They talked with Bryan Satur- day niglt, telling him be had been hum- bugged. Bryan’s friends said to-day they would work upon him by telegraph and ietter urg him not to adhere to the bargain. Otherwise they threaten a seri- ous political row. e ANOTHER AMERICAN COUNTES Daughter of a Wealthy Whisky Di MWed: a Title.

PUGILISTS SKIP 00T, | carriage, her husband following on horse- McKeever Departs for Hs Home in Philadelphia on the Quiet. Frank P. Slavin and Frank Rafael Have Left for Alaska—Califor- nia C ub Matches. The directors of the National Athletic Club were given a sharp surprise on Mon- day when information reached them that Charlie McKeever had skipped for his tome in Phiiadelphia, On Saturday last the club matched Mec- Keever to fight Lavigne in August and all arrangements were perfectly satisfac- tory to McKeever, who seemed delighted at the prospect of engazing in another contest in the near future. He was stoppins at the Langham Hotel and informed Director Groom that he thought a change of residence would please him very much. He signified his intention of locating this week at Has gerty’s Villa on the beach, but when Mr. Haggerty was telephoned to concerning the whereabouis of the puzilist he replied that he had notseen him and did not know where McKeever had taken wings to. Giobs ana Groom were unable 10 give an opinion, but the former :hought McKeever was homesick and skipped by the light of the moon for the speclal purpose ol.seeing bis best ‘“‘zal.” Yesterday afternoon a letter was received from McKeever, who, with his manager, is on his way East. The fighter stated that he had important business to trans- act “at home,” but that be would return 10 this_City in case his prospective oppo- nent, Lavigne, agreed to fight him in August under the conditions which he (McKeever) had agreed to prior to his de- parture from this Citv. The sports about town are of the opinion that McKeever is not particularly anxious for a match with the ligntwelght champion, bence his sud- den departure for Philadeiphia on Sunday last. It McKeever should back out of a match the cinb will endeavor 1o sign Tra- cey and Lavigne, which contest, if con- .\un‘;uuled, would prove a great drawing Thera is hardiy any question about McKeever having been attacked with that peculiar malady’ commouly known as cold feet. In factall of the light-weight face-punchers feel a chill when the name of Lavigne is mentioned. Tne directors of the California Athlstic Club met last evening and matched big Miller, the pugilist who was whipped by Sbarkey at Colma, against Baker, tne fighter who fell before Jeffries. They also matched Jack Hill and “‘Kid" Carson for ten rounds and Thompson and Muller tor ten rounds. The contests will b* held in Woodward’s Pavilion in July or August. Frank P. Siavin, with bis manager, Mr. Boyle, and Frank Kafael leftyesterday for | Vietoria, from which place they will sail for Alaska. Slavin’s manager is of the opinion that there is “good’’ money to be made in the snow country by giving box- inz entertainments, but the chances are favorabie for the “dead 'un’’ meeting with a very cold frost. Doubtless Siavin and Rafael will box in Victo! if they should receive permission from the authorities of that aity. The betting on the Olympic Ciub con- tests is not by any means spirited.

Turns to See a Snake Coiled Around Her Little One’s Leg. Angered by Her Cry and Quick Movement It Eurles Its Fangs in Her Offspring. REDDING, CaL, June 15—The three- year-old baby of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Porter, living about six miles east of Red- ding, was struck by a rattlesnake to-day and is in a precarious condition, The little one was playing in the yard, with its mother not six feet away, when the rep- tile made its appearance. Mrs. Porter, alarmed by the whirr of its rattle, screamed snd leaped toward the baby. The cry and her quick movement angered the suake, which had coiled around the baby's leg, and it struck at the child, fastening its fangs in the little one’s arm. Porter, who carries the mail between this city and Baird, at the United States fishery, came to Redding this afternoon afier medical assistance and related these detai's. The baby girl, he saia, was play- ing in the dooryard of the iamily home- stead on Stillwater. Its mother was standing near by, at- tending to some household duty, when she was siartled by a rattling, whirring noise. Quickly looking round, she was horrified to see a large rattiesnake slowly coiing itself round the leg of her off- spring. The reptile’s tale was raised, its rattles keeping up an incessant noise and its poisonous fangs sbowing beiween its revolting jaws. The mother was too borrified to move or ery for sssistance for several minutes, and while she remained thus spelibound the snake gave no evidence of intent to barm the babe, its bead-like eyes being con- stantly fastened upon the mother. Suddenly Mrs. Porter recovered the use of her faculties £nd with a scream sprang toward the little girl, justas the rattler had almost succeeded in coiling itself around the baby’s leg. At the movement the reptile released its hoid, and, giving a spring, struck the child in the arm. Having recovered her presence of mind, the mother’s first impulse was to kill the snake, and with a huge rock she soon put an end to its life. She then carried the baby to the house. In a few moments the father arrived on his down trip. Mrs. Porier brought the baby to Redding ina back. Medical attendance was procured and the infant made as comfortable as possible, ihough its wound may prove fatal. Mrs. Porter is almost crazed by the shock. Numerous other attacks by rattlers bave been reported in the past week and hunters in the foothills report the reptiles unusually dangerous gl SHASTA MILLS 10 REOPEN, Dawn of Prosperity in ihe Eound Moun- tawn District, REDDING, CAr, June 15.—There is to- day joy smong lumbermen generally, and more especially those in the neighberaocod of the once flourishing camp of the Shasta Lumber Company in the Round Moun: tain dis'rict twenty-eight miles from Red- ding.
