Ihe not is not the onlv measure over which there is a deadlock between the two Houses of Congress. The River and Harbor bill, which is now in conference, is net only dead-locked but it was intimated this morning that it may either fail altogether or its further consideration postponed until next winter. The conferees on the part of both Houses are, as usual, reti cent about what occurs in the committee room. But the fact has leaked out that the House conferees have taken a de termined stand, and llatly infurmed their Senatorial associates that thev will not consent to the enormous increase made in the bill by the Upper House. The bill as it passed the House carried ah appropriation f s9.00,0O0, in addition to the f,500,0X provided for in the Sun dry Civil bill to continue work under contract. This made the total river and harbor appropriations for the nex; two years .ls,x)U,oO0 in round numbers. The Senate increased the appropriation by $:J.500,(XX). "j The bill has now Ixen in conference for some days and thus far the Senate conferees have yielded only Oo5,000. This is not nearly enough to satify the representatives of the House. They in sist that the bill as it passed the House was as liberal a measure as could have been expected, considering the depleted condition of the treasury, that the iircrease on the part of the Senate is not only unwise when the straightened comlitions of the national finances is remembered, but that these increases have been made with an amiable dtsire to please indi vidual Senators and not because the ne- i ce-sites of the case demanded them. The House bill, it is contended, is an- liar- j moniotH and well rounded and well con- j sidered measure, while that of the Serude j is not.', ia au agreement canut jv reached, the House conferees, it is under stood, may retire from the contest and leave the whole matter in the air until the next session. " The prospects of an agreement cn the taritF were much improved to day. For the first time in many days the House Democratic conferees came from the meeting with the statement that previ ous irreconciliable ditrerences w?rein process of amicable adjustment. With much satisfaction the House members stated to their associates that the Sena tors had shown a disposition for the first time to meet the House half way. As to when a full agreement would be reached there was some dilTe rence of opinion. One House conferee said it would probably be this week. Another thought it would be "soon."' Chairman Wilson would not even admit that the understanding had an not Agrrn on a Proposition to Spend $1,000,000 in Its KxtTUiination The House Bankruptcy and Railroad Tax Bills lie- j ported In the Senate A Dull Day In i Both Iiouea. SENATE. Washington, July 31. The ftupify ing dullness of the Senate pro veil in gs; to-day was interrupte-d but not enlivened by a repetition of the discussion which comes up every year on the subject of a site for a new building for the Govern ment printing office. For several years past there have been three1 rival projosi tions pressed with about equal perti nancy. The one which has had hereto fore the most numerous partisans, in eluding Senators Sherman and Teller, is , the acquisition of the square known as "Mahone lot," not far from the present building. The next in point of number of supporters, including the chairman of the Committee on Printing in the last Congress, Senator Mandersdn, is the pur chase of the square known as the "base ball lot." And the third, of which the chairman ef the Committee on Printing. Senator Gorman, is the chief advocate, is the retention of the present building and the acquisition of adjoining prop erty sufficient-to erect an addition that will meet all the requirements of the Government in the way of public print ing and binding.

To in Watson will probably op pose Black again. ever, that the conferees had at least done some business and made progress to-day, which was more than could have been said of the past meetings. The Senate conferees came from the meeting with out showing the hopefulnessof the House members. They said the conference was as far from an agreement as it had been. While there was this conflict among . those thoroughly informed of the inside workings of the conference, the general belief prevailed that the hopefulness of the House con ferees had some substantial foundation. One of the conferees said that while no final agreement had been made on iron, coal and sugar, yet that sufficient had been eieyeloped in conference to show that an agreement could be reached on these three most important items, which would be acceptable to the Senate and House conferees and to the House of Representatives. Whether it would be acceptable to the full Senate, this conferee expressed some doubt. In this connection it developed to-day that Senator Caffery, of Louis iana, who has been most active in the sugar question, had a long and it is said satisfactory conferences yesterday with Speaker Crisp and Chairman Wilson. While the House conferees were go pleased at the bright outlook, their Sena torial colleagues contented themselves with saying that while they were hope ful of reaching an understanding, noth ing had transpired in conference to base this hope upon. They declare that on the essential items of disagreement the conferees are as far apart as they ever were. An increased hopefulness that a bill will be agreed upon is nc-ticeable, however, on the part of Democratic Senators who are not members of the conference. One of the leading :"eonsei vative" Senators said as he was leaving the Sen ate chamber to-night that the Tariff bill would be finally agreed upon by ne!xt J Monday, and he added thac the bill would be virtually the same bill. The day developed. the possibility of a report of partial agreement, and while the report at first appeared as a vague rumor, its probability was afterwards confirmed by Senators .not members of the conference committee. The fact that the conference ha I the schedules other than those relating! to sugar, coal and iron ore under onsidera tion tewlav is one fact in confirmation1 of the report. A Fatal Affray.

Randolph, parish treasurer of East Baton Rouge, and one of the ! most prominent men in politics and society in that parish, was shot and mortally wounded yester day afternoon by Dr. King Holt, city physician, who stands equally high in the business, political and social circles at the Capital.

THE POLITICAL ALLIANCE., The House bill to prevent interference in the collection of State, county and municipal taxes a-ssessed against corpor ations and corporate property was taken up and explained by Senator Coke. He said that it was intended to apply, to rail roads which were in the hands of re ceivers, it having been held that all power on the par of the States to collect taxes from such railroads was withdrawn. The passage of the bill, he said, was ab solutely necessary in order that State revenues might suffer no diminution. The bill had been reported unanimously by the Judiciary committee. On objection by Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, the bill went over until to-morrow, and the Senate adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES The House transacted considerable business in the threie and a half hours that it was in session to-day, but little of it was important. Most of the' bills passed were reported from the Commit tee on Naval Affairs, and one only was of general interest. It authorized the Secretary of the Navy, under proper regulations, to loan to the States apply ing for them such ships as can be spared for that purpose, to be used for the in struction and improvement of the naval militia of the States. Mr. Hatch reported the result of the conference on the Agricultural Appro priation bill, an agreement on all items except the one ahnroDriating $1,000,000 for the extirpation of the Russian thistle in the Northwest, put on the bill in the Senate. After discuss ing the conference report for an hour the , House voted ;G to 52 to insist upon its j disagreement to the Senate amendment , Itepubliean Committee Appointed to Negotiate Fusion with the Iop nlistH Populist Conference Faircloth ami Furchew Agreed Upon.
