If only one would appear thut unblush- tenth of the charges preferred against the protested ones twenty-eight out of the famous ninety-four will have their elections voided. If only the more con. spicuously corrupt have been selected for the purpose of making an example of them what a transparent farce pro vincial elections must be, Were it not humiliating it would be ludicrous to find that overtwenty-eight per cent of the successful candidates have had their elections protested.

Dr. Bruce will leave for Toronto to-morrow and after visiting his people there will proceed to London, Eng., to continue his studies. On Tuesday after lunch Dr, Bruce was called forward by Parser McRae and on behalf of the Kuropean stewards pre- sented with a Gladstone bag and a cabinet | | of games. Dr. Bruce made a suitable reply. | On Wednesday Parser McRaeagain demand- | ed the doctor's attention after lunch and pre- sented him with & silk banner on behalf of | the Chinese stewards. On this was worked in gold bullion lace an inscription showing to whom and by whom it was presented. The inscription on one side was in Knglish and on the other in Chinese, This did not | end the doctor's troubles for on the same | evening he was presented with a silver bowl. | This presentation was made by Chief Boats- wain Bird on behalf of the warrant officers, petty officers and seamen of the Empress. Once more Dr, Bruce suitably expressed his appreciation. On Thursday eveving the doctor wag entertained to dinner by the en- gineers, and at the conclusion of the meal acting chief engineer Richardson presented him with a dressing case on behalf of that department. Again Dr. Bruce, who must by this time have become an adept, made an appreciative response. To-day the officers presented the doctor with a silver tea set, and up to The World's time of going to press that was the last county heard from. This upanimons expression from every depart ment on the vessel speaks in thunder tones of Dr. Bruce's courtesy, kindness, ability and attention to duty. A Witty Rector.

Ou wotion the Council adjourned. 'With a large number crats of the House ready and willing to accept the Senate tariff Lill, with such modifications as may be agreed upon, the President continues firm in his opposition to the measure, believ- ing that he' can bring the Senate to terms. The Demperatic members of the conference committee have decided that they will not make another report until they reach an agreement, even if | they have torewnin in session until the 4th of next March. In those two nen- tences, brief as they are, is summed up all the actual fact that remains after blowing away the froth from the vast amount of current gossip relative to .ths tariff situation, The President made his position known in a lengthy interview which be had with Chairman Wilson, just previous to the re.open- ing of the conference. To others who bave seefi him Mr. Oleveland gave no indication of weakening, but rather in- dicated his belief that the House would hold out till victory came to them and to him. There is one thing about Mr. Cleve. ladd, however, that the conferees have not been able to learn, and that is whether he would sigh "the bill if it came to him practically as it left the i) Id 0 the bill to become law under the ten day's constitutional limit, thus ehow- his disapproval by not signing it.-- Those who have investigated these re- ports have obtained no light, and they say that the President's position is too uncertain for conjecture. However, the helief is that he will sign the bill when it comes to him, fo Notwithstanding all the diverse stories which run current, and they are as plentiful as blackberries in a Virginia field, there is an undercurrent of Lelief that the conferees will reach an agreement by about the 4th of August instead of the 4th of March. This is the opinion of Senator Jones, the chairmant of the subcommittee that framed the bill, and it is support- ed by similar stat 'ments in other quart- ers. tis bardly likely that the oes will accept the Senate bill as n whole. But it is equally certain that any material chan ze will make trouble in the Senate, So the prcbabilities are that there wi'l be niany changes in the minor schedules and that the big items of contention will remain in substan tially the Senate form. Chairman Wilson goes into the second tariff conference much stronger physically than he was at the last conference, his stay in West Virginia has done him much good. He no longer wears a bandage around his head and over his face, and Is a great improvement over his condition a week ago. He says that he feels vigorous and this with his great stock of energy promises to éarry him through the tariff strogele without the physical colapse so imminent at the Just con- ference. The last act in the comedy of the "Army of the Commonweal", so lnugh- able at first, and so pitifully pathetic the play went on, was given out at ¢ "Camp" near Hizhlinds when the star of the performing co npany made his final bow and took leave of the other members of the east. it was a a great b'ow for the walking gentle. man, the heavy villian and the super- numerary soldiers, who imngined that they saw an indefinate engagement for them in the viemity of Washing- ton and they were loud in their denun. ciation of what they regarded as cruel heartlessness. Whea the worthy Coxey appeared before them and said he'could do nothing more for them, and that his private afliirs would re quire his attention for the next four months, their consternation was really pitiful He advised © the men whom he had led astray to go into Washing- ton nnd beg, sb that they. would be arrested and supported at the expense of the community, Coxey's desertion of his wretched followers is just what might have been expected of so zhal low and selfish and transparent a char Intan. Hecame here with his forlorn dupes 'on an utterly fru'tless errand and, now that notoriety and impudence have" brought the reward he looked for, he has abandoned these deluded creatures with contemptuous and eall- ous heartlessness that wight well make Polyphemus blush.
