The princess of Wales' jubilee dinners to the poor today were very successful. About 3,000 den izens of the slums were sumptuously entertained at the various centres " The princess, accompanied -by the prince of Wales, Princess "Victoria, of. Wales, and Prince and Princess Charles, of panmark, visited the prin cipal halls where the feasts were given. The- places visited by the royal party were the People's palace, In the east end of indon; the central hall, Hoi born; and the Weslyan school house, at Clerkenwell. At the People's palace the royal visitors were received by the lord mayor, Sir George Faudel-Phil- iips, and the lady mayoress. The guests there consisted of 1,000 ragged children. After, the national anthem had been sung, the children were serv ed with a good feast of roast beef, po tatoes, pies, tarts, blancmange, jellies, apples, oranges and ice cream. The fare at the other places was the same. The children at the People's palace were all cripples. They were wheeled In in bath chairs, limped on crutches Into the banquet hall, 4r were carried In. : As soon as the ropal party reached the nlatform. two little crinPles tire- sentea hbuquets of flowers to the prin cess of Wales and to the lady mayoress. The scene ; was an affecting one and nearly all I eyes became moist at the sight of so many little sufferers. The prince of Wales, In 'behalf of the princess,. expressed the pleasure which it afforded them in 1eing able to bring some degree of happiness to the chil dren. He called for cheers 'for the queen, which were heartily given. The members of the royal party then made a tour of the hall and 'be fore leaving, the princess of Wales took up a glass of ginger ale which had 'been served to one of the little crip ples and emptied It to the health of the children. ' - At, the Central hall, Holbforn, 1,700 people, young and old, partook of. the banquet. As soon as th royal party entered the hall the food was appar ently forgotten. , All present stctd "utc, and cheers after cheer- shfook the bullS- Ing. On making a tour of the room. the princess of Wales turned to an old Irish .woman and expressed the hope that She had partaken of a good din ner. To this thfe old woman replied: "God bless you, dear,"- and patted the princess on the shoulder. The mem Hbers of the royal party shook hands with, and spoke encouraging words to many ragged waifs. The same scenes were witnessed at Clerkenwell. This has emphatically been the princess of Wales day and her Idea of giving a treat tothe poor has been' crowned with the greatest' success,. She was everywhere received with enthusiasm. The day was very hot and the princess wore a simple white muslin dress. At the People's palace, the princess herself made the first'; btock of Ice cream with a patent freezer, to the de light of the children. ' At the various adults' feasts, It was at first decided not to allow beer to be served, but the lady mayoress inter ceded, and all present had a "reasona ble allowance." i The princess of Wales requested the lord mayor to deliver a message to all the diners as follows: "Although I am unfortunately una ble to be present at all the dinners fijr mv TXrOr. I shall be with them in spirit Hoping that they wfll enjoy themselves and give three cheers for their queen WITH THE SENATORS AS ; TARIFF LEGISLATION.

A Stubborn Contest Over the Untie on- Manufactured Wool Goods Senator Caf fery Stakes m Speech on the Democratic Doctrine on Tariff Death of Congrew man Cooke. SENATE. J::: "Washington, June 24. A stubborn contest over the' duties on manufac tured wool goods occupied the attention of the senate throughout today. It was a day of "constant roll calls and of cross fire debate on the effect of the" duties in advancing rates. Many amendments were proposed to reduce the rates, but these were rejeted by de cisive majorities. Less than five pages were disposed of during the day. Res olutions of deep regret were passed on the death of Representative Cooke, of Illinois, and a ' committee of five senators was named as a funeral es cort. . : - ' Senator JPlatt,. of New York, desired to place In the record a petition from the Manufacturers' Association, of Brooklyn, for the speedy passage of the tariff, bill. Senator Allen objected to having pe titions go into the record unless from a state legislature or executive depart ment. . - Senator Piatt thereupon accomplished his purpose by reading the petition as a part of his remarks. Senator Hale, of Maine, then came forward with a surprise in the form of a proposed amendment to xne senate rules, admitting to the privileges of the floor of the senate only ex-senators who are not interested in any claim or in the prosecution of the same, or di rectly in any bill pending before con gress." Added to the text of the pro posed change is the following: "The purpose of the proposed amendment is to' prevent ex-senators from enjoying the privileges of the floor of the senate for the purpose or urging or opposing claims or bills in which they are em Dloyed as attorneys." Senator Hawley suggested that tnere might be some objection to any point ing out of ex-senators, and benator Al len asked what had taken place .in re cent days to call attention to the sub ject. Senator Hale asked that he ne not reauested to particularize. Senator Allen declared that tnere naa been io more lobbying of late than there' had been for years. The proposed amendment finally went over, senator iiaie siaung mat ne would ask tomorrow that the amend ment be referred to the committee on rules. The consideration of the wool sche dule of the tariff bill was then resumed. and Senator Vest, of Missouri, asked Senator Allison to indicate what was tr. he the nroerramme for the future in the handling of the bill. Senator Allison replied that it was the purpose to complete the wool schedule, then the silk schedule, then tobacco. When that was done, the bill would have been eone over once, with some excepted . paragraphs, such ; as lead, hides, etcl The Durpose then was to besrin with the chemical schedule and consider lA order such paragraphs as had been passed over. ; - Senator Caffery, of Louisana, was then recognized for. a speeeh on the general subject of the course of, legis lation, particularly on the tariff, to re strict individual effort and to build up giant industries. He reviewed the eco nomic views of our early statesmen, to show the gradual extention of the pro tective nolicv far beyond the expecta tiohs of Hamilton, Jackson, Madison und-niav' Referring to the recent course of several democratic senators he said: "Sir. we hear senators on this floor belonging to the-democratic party statins: four propositions:. First, that the doctrine of free faw material s not demncratic: secondthat if one article is dutJed,;all ought to be; third, that if nmtection is eoing the rounds, demo crats might as well get the benefits of it bv asking to be protected in nome industries; fourth, that there is no nrHTieinie. involved in a tariff bill, but it is a mere Question of schedules." Senator Caffery examined each of these propositions, pointing out what he regarded as their fallacies, and said: "Precedent and principle alike refute these propositions. 'Veteran .democrats who were horn and win die with true democratic faith in their minds and hearts, repudiate tnem. They look upon them as an effort to fruclfv their creed. Ana iiKe tne onris tinn who embraces the image or ms ei-iieified Saviour as the last hour of mnrtniitv aooroaches. so will they em brace and cling to, witn a love aim faith which no sophistry can destroy and no temptation Detray, me auuun dvHne nf tariff for revenue only, as the nearest approach to that free trade hnrod for bv the democratic party. Is t v- - it possible that we denounce piunuer, nnlv to loin the plunderers?" The debate then proceeded on paia.- exanh 364. relating to cloths, knit rah rirs. etc.. Senator Jones, of Arkansas, having- offered an amendment limiting the provisions to goods or wnicn wuui la tne pniPT rumuuucui uiatci ia-i. amendment was -rejected IS to il. Senator Jones renewed the motion In another form, the purpose being to restrict the duties to goods made of ac tual wool and not of inferior materials, cntton. etc. It led to an extenoeo. con troversy between Senator Allison and, Senator Jones, as to how the amounts of wool and-cotton respectively lp a fabric could be ascertained, Finally the amendment was rejected 22 to" 28 Paragraphs 364, relating to woolen ninth was then agreed to as reported, omitting "skirted" in designating un washed wool. on naraeraohs 365. (blankets and flannels formal changes were made in accordance with the previous notice of Senator Allison. . Senator Petigrew, of South Dakota, gave notice of an amendment placing a tax of 10 per cent, on articles manu factured by a trust. In paragraph 366 (women's and child ren's dress goods, cotton warp), the rates were changed to Vk. cents per son are vard on "goods vaiued at not more than 15 cents a yard and 7 cents on those valued above 15 cents a yaru, and 50 per cent, ad valorem. Tn paragraph: 36, (women s auu. children's dress goods wholly or In part wnnh the rate was Increased irom a cents to cents per yard and 90 per cent, ad valorem. - --;- '. In paragraph S8 ireaqy rnaue ciowj- Ing, shawls, etc), the house provision, including "felts not woven." was re stored. The rate of duty was changed from four and a half to four times the TO duty on unwashed wool and the ad va lorem duty was changed irom su to 65 per cent. v , . .- On paragraph 369 (webbings, gorings, suspenders, fringes, etc.), the specific duty was changed to 50 cents per pound and the ad valorem to , 55 per cent. In paragraph 370 relating to aubus- son, axmister. mocuette and cnenme carpets, the specific rate was changed from 60 to 62 cents per square yard, the ad valorem being left at 40 per cent. ... The bill was then laid aside, para graph 370 having been completed. The death of Representative Cooke, of Illinois, being announced the senate, as a mark of respect, adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Ah air of gloom pervaded the 'house today', owing to the death of Mr. Oooke, of Illinois, who .died suddenly n his hotel this morning. He was very popular .with his colleagues and his tintimely ; death was a severe , " shock t6 them. The desk which he occupied on the extreme right of the 'hall was draped In mourning and covered with white roses and magnolia blossoms. The blind chaplain, In his invocation, referred feelingly to Mr. Cooke's death as a great public calamity. After the reading of the Journal the speaker announced the reception of an invitation from the president of the Belgian chamber of depties to the members of the house to attend the" International parliamentary confer ence in favor of arbitration, which com mences August 6th. Mr. Foss, of Tlliwois, on behalf of the delegation, then announced the - sad news of the death of his colleague, Mr. Cooke. He gave notice that at some future time he would ask the house to pay tribute to the character and public services of Mr. Cooke. - The customary resolutions were adopted and a committee to attend the funeral was appointed. Then, as a further mark of Tespect to the memory of the deceased, the house adjourned until Monday. SENATOR BUTLER TO GET A CHANCE AT THE STATE J TREASURY ALSO. - ."- THE PARIS BAZAAR FIRE. 3 Said to Have Been the Work of a Party o1 Anarchists. Chicago, June 24. The Post today says : According to a story which has reached Chicago from Paris via Wash ington, the terrible holocause which wiped out over 100 lives at the French capital Hay 4th was the work of an anarchist thirsting for revenge on the upper classes of France, It Is claimed that While the official inquiry Into the circumstances surrounding the catas trophe threw little light on the cause of the fire, the secret service depart ment is working on a clue that points to an anarchistic conspiracy-of stupen dous magnitude. It is said the Paris detectives have not only satisfied them selves that anarchists were at the bot tom of the- awful crime, 'but that the leaders who planned it fled to Amer ica as soon as they had seen with what frightful success it had been executed. It is also asserted that - several per sons are under arrest in Paris on the suspicion of knowing1 more about the affair than they care to tell. A member of the French legation at Washington is said to be authority for the story. Washington, June 24. The officials of the French embassy here refuse to im part information concerning" any con nection that the anarchists smay have had with the holocaust of the early part of May. "Mr, Lefalvre, the first secretary of the embassy, said tonight that there had been no communication received from his government looking to the apprehension of the leaders of the outrage whom, it Is said, have fled to America. This, he thinks, would have been the case had it been believed such persons were engaged in the af fair and had come to this country. Mr, Lefaivre was 1n 'Paris at the time of the disaster and . remained there for several days. Imiriediately afterward there were intimations In some of the newspapers attributing the catastro phe to anarchistic sources, but publi cations of that character soon" ceased. Newspapers that have since come to hand conveyed the impression that the opinion that the anarchists had been at the bottom, of the affair was Incon sistent with the real facts in the case, which, according to Investigations, showed that the fire was due to an ac cident.
