That there is strong probability of
another morning daily being started here
is evidently setting very badly with the
News & Observer people. That one
sided paper says: It was proposed to make
the new paper a gold paper, but it was
found impracticable to try such a thing
in North Carolina, so if the paper is
started "its politics will be a sort of Jo
seph's coat affair." Any paper that will
give the public more than one coloring
will be a God send to this community.

Washington, D. O., July, 19. J
Speaker Reed is getting much credit
for the victory won by the House Con
ferees on the tariff bill, in compelling the
Senate Conferees to abandon the Senate
sugar schedule and accept what is prac
tically that of the original Dingley bill.
There is no question that some of the
credit for this result belongs to Mr. Reed
and his colleagues of the Houb, who de
clared early and often that the Senate
sugar schedule was entirely too favorable
to the trust, and would not be accepted
by the House, even if the tariff bill failed
or Congress was compelled to remain in
session all summer. Their action was a
factor an important one but a greater
factor was working against the Senate
sugar schedule. Public opinion, regard
less of politics, was against it from the
day its contents were known, and that
was really what made the Senate con
ferees surrender. Many Senators caught
the drift of popular sentiment and added
their influence and advice in favor of
abandoning the unpopular schedule.
Although a few dissatisfied Senators
have said that they intend to delay ac
tion by the Senate on the tariff conference
report, it is not thought that tliey will
will seriously attempt to do so, and the
agreement to the report and the adjourn
ment of Congress is looked for this week.
It has been ditlicult, during the past week
to keep a quorum of the Senate on hand,
and it is growing more so every day.
The Hawaiian annexation treuty lias
been favorably reported, but it is not ex
pected that any Lttenipt, will be made at
the present session, to get a vote upon it.
Everybody is tired of Congress being in
session, but the Senators and Represen
tatives are the most tired of all, and they
are going home very soon.
The reference to the fines imposed
upon the Carnegie Bteel Company, for
furnishing the Government armor plates
not up to the required standard, made in
the Senate debate' on the amendment to
the Deficiency bill limiting the price to
be paid for armor plate, to 300 a ton,
brought out a statement from Ex-Secretary
Herbert that surprised a great many
people. It had been supposed that these
fines were all remitted by President
Cleveland, but Mr. Herbert says they
were paid, or at least that $144,000 was
paid by the Carnegie company, which
was the amount to which the original
fines, of 1220,000 was reduced by Mr.
Cleveland, As tho House has agreed to
the amendment limiting the cost of armor
to f 300 a ton, looks as though the armor
trust would cither have to furnish it at
that price or not at all.
The last River and Harbor .bill had a
provision directing the Secretary of War
to have a pteliminary examination made
as to the possibility and cost of a ship
canal from the great Lakes, to the ocean.
Maj. T. W. Symons, who was ordered to
mako the examination, has reported
against the undertaking because of its
great cost. The report says that the best
route for such a canal would be by way
of Niagara River, Lake Ontario, Oswego
Oneida lake and Mohawk and Hudson
rivers. Maj. Symons expresses the opin
ion that tho Erie canal, when enlarged
as contemplated, would, if New York
would remove restrictions as to its use,
giyo commercial advantages practically
equal to the ship canal that would cost
about 1300,000,000.
