When the Senate adjourned shortly after 10 0-- lock last night the consideration 01 the . cotton schedule of the tariff bili had been completed. Just, before' adjournment Mr. Aldrlcn chairman of the Finance Committer, announced that the woolen schedure will be taken up this morning. Rapii; progress was made. at the night ses sion. At the suggestion of Senator Doliver, the schedule relating'to jao auard figured goods used In upholster ing was modified so" that such goods valued at lens than $1 a yard shall be 'issessed at 40 per cent advalorem, ana above $1 a ward shall-be dutiable at H iwi- font at volnrum The Senate amendments to the cot- ton schedule restoring the Pingley rates on hosiery, which the Hone h mbstantially increased, were adopted fter a protest by Senators Gallinger Penrose, and Scott. Mr. Scoti n-, . etter from employes of hosiery miliu WeEt Virginia requesting an In- rease of duly in order to maintain the resent rate of wages. In New Hampshire, Mr. Gallinger, said, one hosiery factory is now woi::- n on halt time and one other mi:: has, been closed up because of tne lerce foreign comietitioh in this ar ticle. Mr. Penrose eaid if the rates an hosiery were not increased there would be a reduction of 25 per cen: the wagss paid to employes or these mills. The Dingley rates he said were not sufficiently protective. He urged the increases made in the House bill. The only roll call of the night ses- lon was demanded on an amendment offered by Senator Lodge providing t. rate of 53 per cent ad valurem on loves valued at more than $6 a dozen pairs, and io per ont ad yaloren: and 50 cents per pair If valued under 6 a dozen, which wae adopted by a srote of 41 to 34. On the first vote, an amendment by Mr. Dolllvor, of Iowa, relating to the proposed duty on "window shades' was rejected, after an animated aeJ bate, by a vote of 41 to 26. On the next vote, another amendment offered by Senator Dolliver was-rejected by vote of 38 to 32.- On this vote Sen ator Jones of Washington, joined the Insurgents. ' ' , The other amendments were accept- d without the formality of a roll call Senator Dclllver recognized the hope- essness of any further opposition to he programme by conceding publicly hat he" realized Mr. Aldlrch bad the otes and that, whatever he proposed would be accepted by the Senate, Much, of the debate related to an amendment offered by Seuator Dollivei to strike out the proposed addition o duty of 1 cent per square yard os til cotton cloths subjected to a process f mercerlzation, in addition to the .-Muler . duties.' The Senator from cwa submitted tbe testimony of ex- cost of mercerlzation was only 1-6 cen yard, and that the cost of mercerl :ation In the United States was les nan H was abroad.

It wilt 1 be seen by reference to section IPOT 'of the Revisal of 1908 that the office of County Treasurer may be abolisn ed by the Justices of the Peace and the duties of the office imposed upon the sheriff of the county. Section 2778 of the Rievisal empowers the County commissioners to fix the com pensation of the county treasurer and ' permits the commissioners to alio-.v J the treasurer not exceeding 1-2 of per cent of moneys received and no; exceeding 2 and 1-2 per cent on mo seys disbursed. Where the treasure 'wm not receive more than $250.00 pe annum, the commissioners may allow him 2 and 1-2 per cent on receipts and disbursements. When the treasure) of 'this county received only a tew hundred dollars the compensation war. fixed by the commissioners at. 2 am? 1-2 per cent on disbursements. That is the maximum allowance for dis bursements. But now that tbe re ceipts amount to many times as much as it did then is seems in order r,y reduce the per cent and pay for the services -rendered by this officer a compensation that will be commensu- rate with the work performed.

The Senate, before adjournment, bad an experience meeting, in which there was an animated debate of the ques tions "Who Is a Republican?' and 'Why is a Democrat?' No't, much progrese was made with the tariff bill after the attempt was begun to settle thosa two problems of poll'tJcs. Senator William Alden Smith, 01 Michigan, repudiated the Republican ism of Secretary of the Treasury Mac Veagh and Secretary of War Dickinson and Senator Aldrlch had a hot contro versy with Senator Beverldge as to whether Mr. Beverldge was a Repulj llcan or a Democrat. In thig discussion Mr. Aldrlch wa earnest, much mops so than usual. He intimated that by recent cIobs as sociation with the Democratic Sen:r tors, the young member from Indiana bad forgotten bis Republicanism. Mr. Aldrlch laid down the preamble that the pending tariff bill was a party measure, and if it proved a Beveridge and his Republican associates would have to bear their share of the respon sibility. At one time when Mr. Beverldge declared that a vote on the bill could be had at once It Mr. Aldrlch made certain concessions to the low Urift men. Mr. Aldrlch retorted that, he was glad to find out at last who the reader of the opposition was. Tne trouble about the combination of Vie Democrats and minority Republicans was. lie tald, tbat the emocrata rur nished all the privates and the IB surgents all tne brigadiers. One of the Interesting developments ot the discussion was the accusation of Mr. 'Aldrlch that Mr. Beverldge and the dissatisfied Republicans were seea Ing to organize a new party. 8enator Cummins, ot Iowa, who bad ariBen tc his feet, sat down when Mr. Aldrlch had augsested that the leader ot the Democratlc-ln-auraent-Republican com blnatlon show himself. .Mr. Cummins later Intimated that the Republican party might be defeated if the pending' tariff bill waa enacted Toward th.1 end of the afternoon aee nun w-.-w.... r w , a.enM DoHaV Taf Ol ai rtrl am wni .Tiftpn onnTrarAriT n.. adopted at tbe national convenUon, Mr atone tnide a long argument tending to show that the Republican member J - . i- lot the senate were noi nyini up i eriunu uw.. .w -.w,-a pledge of downward revision ot the lnchl.,VPP Fdang. accompanied by - a pledge - I,..ii ,na,l h tht Rnnuhlicsn corrres, rwr.. lt year. iwitt " ' 11.

The latter is to Francis Sum mer, of Buncombe county, sentenced for manslaughter. The commutation is from two years and eight montha to one year and eight months.
