C., June 30.—With the exception of the delivery of an hour's | speech by Tarpie against the general pro- | visions of the tariff bill and in favor of an | amendment of his own to levy 2 per cent on the estates of decedents, there was very little discussion in the Senate to-day, d the work of clearing off -laid-over | naragraphs was carried on industriousl The result is that all but contested que: tions have been d sed of. Even the provision ‘in the House bill, though it should not be construed as affecting reci- pro ; with Hawaii,was concurred in, the Finance Committee's rscom- menaation to strike out having been with: drawn. ice was given by Allison of a section | ting for reciprocity treaties under which a reduction of 20 per ceat of duties | may be taken off in favot of countries e ng into stuch arrangements.

C., June 30.—A se-| cret agreement has been reached between ! the Democratic Senators and the Re- publican leaders by which a final vote on ! the tariff bill will be taken at 4 o’clock next Saturday afternoon. Thisagreement was made at a reception tendered to mem- bers of the Sen; je last evening by Vice- President Hobart, but the fact is being | guarded with great secrecy by the Sena- tors. Notwithstanding all that has been said | in a hopeful way reparding the probable date of the final vote, Aliison said as late as yesterday that he would be_satisfied if! the bill should be passed next Wednesday. Last evening several Democratic and Re- publican Senators who have been most congpicuous in the tariff devate were en- gaged in conversation with Hobart. Some one suggested that an- end be made of speculation as to the probable conclusion of the debate tnen and tnere, and that an, agreement for the time of taking tue vole erny (D.) voted aye.

Ho Will Not Be .ippointed Minister to Nicaragua. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 80.—Cap- tein William L. Merry of San Francisco will not be made Minister to Nicaragua. Senator Perkius learned this to-day. He saw the President at the White House this morning and went away feel- ing satisfied that Captain Merry stood a first-rate chance for the appointment. In- deed, the President gave him tp under- ! a mile handicap amateur race, Percy Mott | stand that Captain Merry might be ap- pointed. senator Perkins then visited the State Department and Assistant Secretary Day dashed his hopes to the ground by saying that the captain could not be appointed because he had been acting as a consul of Nicararua in this country. It is the policy of this Government not to appoint any one to a foreign mission or consular position who has been acting as agent of a foreign Government. Assistant Secretary Day also pointed out the fact that Captain Merry would probablv be persona non grata on account of the Rod- riguez affair. This settlea the matter. Captain Merry will not go abroad for, according to Senator Perkins, he would not-accept any other foreign mission. T MENDOCINO CONTENTION, Bupsrintendency of State Hospital for the Insane in Dispute.
