When the beer sec- tion was reached, fixing the rebate at 20 per c instead of T per cent, which makes the rate $1 60 per barrel, Represen- | tative Richardson, ranking member of | the minority, moved a further reduction of all the increase made by the revenuc act. The effect of this motion, if car- ried, would have been to make the rate $1 per barrel. The motion was defeated by a party vote. The consideration by section proceeded, the bill being preserved as framed by the Republicans. When the meeting closed at 12 o'clock Payne, with the concurrence of Richard- son, authorized the proceedings to. be given out in ‘detail. Richardson’s motion on the beer tax was the first test of strength. It pro- vided for a flat rate of $1 per barrel in- stead of §2. This was lost, 6 to §, on al strict party vote.

While Worcester is only accessible to delegates from these districts by a long | and tedious ride by rail of over 45) miles, it is at the same time far removed from the late scenes of battle and armed occupancy by the Boers, and presumably was se lected a fit place for a free and fair ex- pression of opinions. Representatives from all the districts in the Colony were expected to be in attendance at the Con- gress. KRUGER VISITS HOLLAND. Transvaal President Receives a Royal | Welcome at The Hague.

HOUSE ACPTS AR BIL BY | PARTYOTE ‘Three Democrats Support the Measure. | 'One Republican Votes With the Opposi- tion Forces. WASHINGTON, Deec. 6.—The House to- day, at the end of a long session, passed the army reorganization bill by a vote of 166 to 133. Three Democrats, Hall of Penn- sylvania and Underhill and Slayton of New York, voted with the Republicans for the bill, and McCall (R.) of Massa- chusetts with the Democrats against it. Otherwise it was a strict party vote. The proposition which some of the Dem- ocrats attempted to commit their side to in caucus, an extension of the present temporary army until July 1, 13, which | was voted upon indirectly on a motion to recommit, commanded the votes of only cans, McCall and Mann of Illinols. Max the motion, because they were opposed not only to the reorganization bill, but also to continuing the temporary army at its present strength. Quite a number of amendments were placed upon the bill before it was passed The liveliest fight was made upon a sub- stitute offered by Littlefleld of Maine for the canteen section. The substitute abso- lutely prohibited the sale of intoxicants at It was supported by Lit- tlefied, Grosvenor, Dick and Hay (D.) tiefleld, Grosvenor, Dick and Hay (D.) of Texas, Fitzgerald (D.) of Massachusetts Pearce (R.) of Missouri, Parker (R.) of New Jersey and Bartholdt (R.) of Mis- souri.

When the vota was taken the prohibition amendment was carried by an r)\PrwhelmlnS majority—159 to 51 Bartholdt attempted to securs a 1 vote in the House, but the peculiar parliamentary statutes shut bim out.

A delegation visited the Capitol Monday and discovered beer and other liquors be- ing dispensed in the Senate cafe. Another enterprising delegate went to the White House last night as a society reporter lagses on a table which had been spread for the entertainment of the Paris Commissioners. All this evidence was gathered with a view to supporting a resolution of cen- sure. As a_mark of distinction the Marine Band was ordered out in full uniform and discoursed national airs amd popular music.

Mrs. Stevens had prepared a brief speech, which she intend- ed to deliver to the President, thanking him on behalf of the convention for his courtesy and also commending his admin- | istration and invoking God's blessing | upon his acts. No occasion was offered | her to make the speech, but she left the written copy of it in :he President’s hand.

The car was attached to the fast express, that started from Jersey City at 7:2 o'clock. | The Duke and his bride spent the great- er part of this afternoon making farewell visits to their friends. Incidentally his Grace bought a steam automobile, which he took with him. He took a whirl up Fifth avenue in the machine just to see how it worked. The automobile is a sur- | rey and is said to have cost §1400, His Grace was “out” to all callers at | the Holland House. Two men who called at the hotel at 6:30 o'clock were not con- | vinced that he was not in_his rooms, and they attempted to reach his apartments. | For a few minutes it looked as though | there would be a fight with detectives and hotel employes. but the latter retreated before the angry visitors. Matters were Ily adjusted and the men retired to the mAin corridor. By this time the Duke and Duchess, with Mr. Zimmerman and Miss Evans and Melville Ellls, had been hur- ried into carriages and had driven away. TAYLOR FINALLY SUCCUMBS.
