Washington, June 11"A triple and
a home run with men on bases won the
game f r Washington today. The vis-

WASHINGTON LETTER.

(Fiom Our Regular Correspondent.)
WasHInaTon, June 12th, 1897.
Mr. McKinley wag not in the
best of humors when he left
Washington for the Nashville
exposition. Seyeral things had
not gone to suit him. The news-
, p2pers printed the report of Con
* aul General Fitzhugh Lee, on the
- Buiz investigation, before 16 was
received by the State Depart-
ment, and noboby could discover

the Jeak. But the principal
cause cf: Mr.~ McKinleyTs bad
humor was the verbal report
made by his friend and personal
representative, - Mr. Calhoun, who
found out too muck of what Mr.
McKinley did not want to know,
and not enough to corroborate
what what he thought he already
knew. In short, Mr. Calhoun
~. reported things as he found them,
regardless of whether theyT ~pleas-
~ed or displeased anybody.
Meanwhile the Cuban question
is ready to boil over in Congress.
Many Repablicans in the House
who baye been keeping quiet in
opposition to the wishes of their
constitvents, in order to give Mr.
McKinloy a chance to do some-
thing, are. growing restive and
- cannot be held in much longer.

~Notwithstanding the opposi-
tion of Senators Jones, of Ark.,
and Vest, of Mo. both of whom
denounced it severely, six Doam-
ocrats voted for the amendiaent
offered to the tanff bill by Sena-
tor Bacon, cf Ga. putling a 20
per caut ad yalorum duty on raw
cotton. The Republicans all
voted forthe amendment and it
is now a part ofihe bill. The six
Dewocrats who voied for the
ameudment were Bacon and Ciay
of Ga., Tillman and McLaarin, of
S. O., McEnery, of La. and Raw-
lins, of Utah. Sanator Bacon
replied to Democratic objections
by saying that it was recognizec.
thatthe coantry was to haye a

tarift bill and that h» intended to
~ to see that his state received an

équal share of the benefits, as he
believed, in the words of the

Bible, that the man who does not
* care for his own household is

worse than an infidel, There are

reasons for the belief that the
- Republicans are playing a bunco
game on Senator Bacon and his
wemocratic supporters, in order
to exhibit them as supporters of
protection, and that when the
tariff bill goes to the President it
: will not contain a duty on raw

~ Senator Mills, of Texas, 18 not an
alarwist, but he can see nothing
but trouble ahead for class legis-
lation. Hesaid: oThe effect cf
this tariff bill upon the people
will be seen, not in its high taxe-
tion, but in the way it buttresses
acd fortifies trusts of all kinds.
Some of these days this sort of

people will not stand it. Driven
to the wall by the combinations
of money power, they will find a
leader, and we shall see avother

army which will carry guns and
use them.�

tically unanimous i declaring
the uselessness of Mr. McKinley

sion, because they haye decided

Hoyt, of Pa, nominatea to be

Mr. Hoyt was a class mate of Mr.
PorterTs,

A majority of the Republican
Seuatorial caucus realized that
something had to be done to stop
the wave of popalar indignation
on account of the sugar scheduleTs
notorious favoritism towards the
sugar trast, so the House sched-
ule was substituted after making
several changes in the inierest of
the trust, which still stend= to
reap an enormous profit to which

pense of the sugar consumers
that is of everybody. The new
schedule is beiter than the one
discarded, but it is still a very
bad one: but there is little prob-
ability of its boing bettered be-
fore the tariff bill becomes a law.
The trust has too strong a grip
on the Republican leaders.
