Sonic Democrats Were Doubtful or a Time and the Republicans Were Hopeful of Its Defeat. Washington', .Inly •>.—With tho passage of th' 1 tar.II bill and the ad journment of congress to celtdirato the glorious Fourth, Washington has ex perienced a quiet season, hitherto un known tor many weeks. Ever since the fir-t of February the senate lias spent eight h< ’irs a day talk ing and voting on the various clauses of the tarilf bill, and now it go-s to the house in a decidedly different shape from what it was in when it left that body. What will he the outcome, would be hard for tin* most astute politician to venture a prophecy on. That it will be acceptable to the house in its present ship*, nobo ly b'dievs; but that an early adjustment of differ ences. and an agreeim-nt upon a basis for settlement i- that m is' desired now. It was PI aid Tuesd iy night when tin* vote was reached in th * senate, and tin* bill was passed by a vote of il'.i to M Every Democrat, except Mr. Hill of New York, voted lor tin* nn*a.-ure and. although many believed th it. at the last, the New Yorker would east Ins vote with his party, the man from New York had in> thought of doing so; and. when the fin d !• st came.

If a story cur rent here is true, tin* sugar investiga tion committee of tin* senate must either evade its duty or is part that it has rea son to believe that fellow menders of the senate have been guilty of an offense which unkindly criticism might classify as perjury. Senator Lo Ige. one of tin* committee, is said to have told several personal friends that members of the committee are convinced that lour sena tors. whose nann s Mr. lodge given, while they m iy h iv ■ been t clinically correct in their denials ol p irticipatiou in sugar speculation, have actually shared or are to share in tin* profits of such specula lion. These s' ’H a tors do qc' imlu le Mr. Brice. The committee, fit is said, be lieves that Mr. Brice's testimony was technically truthful, and that whatever interest he has in sugar is not personal and direct, hut tor tlie ben.-fit of .Mr. Terrell, his long time Irieul and asso ciate.

A German l.iitlnr.ii (OiiBr.-jratlon Su*- ImIii* (lie Action *>f Hi** I’astor. Ati.anta, July a. — The German Lutheran church, of which R‘*v. F. II. MeuMchke is pastor, has been literally alive with a novel controversy. At a recent funeral of a prominent lodge member, who was also a member of the *St. John’s Lutheran church, the pastor declined to officiate at the graveside in connection with the lodge representa tives. The story was then set afoot that he had refused to conduct tin* funeral exercises of th * deceased because he be longed to a secret organization. Tins statement was published and tho pastor was called upon to defon 1 his I Misition. The meeting was held at tin* blither an church Tuesday night and several members of both lodge and church spoke after tlie minister made his defense. All tho remarks were made in German. Reverend Mr. Meuschke, who is a finely educate 1 youtig man, made an able nnd eloquent defense of his real position. During bis remarks he sai 1: “1 do not stand for my own sake, pleading my cans'*, but tor your sake and of love to my Savior and to yon. whom 11** has entrusted tome and for whose souls I must some day r**n l»*r ac count. In our recent meeting I have been rcijii' S'ed to give my reason for re fusing to otliciate at tin: grave in com pany with ret -o 'b ties. I have not refused to olti *iat" in the lions** nr at the church, as tii" German pap-r -tat**d. I do not condemn the individual members of secret societies, on th** contrary I freely admit that many <'liristiaus join secret order-, not purely irom worldly or sellisb motives, but with th** firm resolution to remain devout Christians, but tin* whole lodge -ystem as such is against tin* < l**ar word of God. “This niav s mmi like a hirl *-tato- inent. but Christ mu t rub* in /ion. In II Cor. •'»: I t, )s.

Immediately upon her arrival Miss Melton made her way to the rooms of tlie Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions, under whose aus pices she went to tlm Mosul, XVest Per sia. station six years ago. The assault upon Mis- Melton i- con sidered one ot the most serious erinies committed by the Turks against an American citizen in many years, and, from tho time of its occurrence, has been the subject of corresitomlence be tween the United States government and that of Turkey. Miss Melton is a tall, well built woman, who, from her appearanee, is capable of taking care of in i -.-If under ordinary circumstances, as her routal of her encounter with Imr sav ig? ass i.l mt will show.
