That the president pursue this course there, seems to be tie doubt, and this will necessitate gress remaining in session until a w< from next Priotay or Saturday. The op In- lonrrendlered by Judge Kott was the fl rst ever given on. the point In question, and held in effect that the president had the right under the constitution to approve > a bill after an adjournment of congress, provided; bis action was taken within 10 days, exclusive of Sundays, after the bill reaches him. It had become a tradition that such an act would be unconsti tional and wotild operate to invalidate act. The opinion of Judge Nott has widely commented upon, but lt is opinion of many high authorities, am' them Chief Justloe Thomas. M. Coole; Michigan and ex-Judge Strong of TJnJtedJSIbates supreme court that Jui I^STott's conclusions are entirely sound \\ght - (The Supplemental BUI*. Beyond the interest felt in the action of the president on the tariff bill congres- sional speculation has now turned upon the probable course of the senate with ref- erence to the supplemental bills. Neither the Democratic steering committee of the senate nor the finance committee has since .the bills were introdtioed in house, consequently there has been no cial action looking to a decision lipoi policy to be pursued. Some Dem senators profess to be desirous that the senate should 1 take them up and dispose of them promptly upon their presentation. This course is, advocated alike by Denjto- CTatic senators, who think the bills woilld be voted down and by some who think there is a possibility of the passage of some of them with Republican assistance. The advocates oq the Democratic side of the chamber of a duty on coal, iron ore and barbed wlrei are of the opinion that thV bills would be voted, down, and that thus the agitation, which they foresee will not cease unjtil the question' is passed upon, would be brought to a -speedy e^d. The sugar men, the friends of both the re- finers and planters, arc quite as desirous for. opposite reasons that th> bill putting sugar on the fr« list should not be con- sidered daring the present session. They are undoubtedly somewhat apprehensive as to the result ii case the senate should take, up *hls bill, for while the Republican senators probably coultj be counted npon to Vote solidly against the other bills there axe indications that, if forced to a vote oa the sugar bill,' they would divide, and there is apprehension chat a sufficient numbpr might vote with the Democrats who de- sire free sugar to P 388 the bills. T*e Re- publican steering Committee, at its meet- ing yesterday, discussed these questions, and while there was found to be a division the majority favored the postponement of tbe consideration j of all these separate bills, and especially the free sugar bill | The little free IJat. The four bills to place upon the free lift all forms of sugttf, coal, iron ore and barbed wire fencing and rods used in its manufacture,-which were passed by the last evening, are drawn to go into upon their passage, sugar provides \that passage of this act the when Imported into shall be admitted sugars, all tan' vacancy in that committee which has e x isted since the death oE Senator Vance before acting upo|n any of these bills. With this vacancjj existing, the commit- tee would tie upon any important ques- tion in which political lines were drawn, and action would; be impossible. This question has beeirjdiscugsed by tbe Dem- ocratic managers to the senate, and it is understood that thb filling of thelvacancy is contemplated before final adjournment. Among the names [which have been can- vassed are those I of Senators Gorman, Blaokbnrn and White. Pittsburg- Feels tbe Boom. PriTs^rKG, Aug. 16.—The passage of the tariff bill has already made itselfi felt in this district by a marked revival of business.

Mayor Gllroy's SDn-ln-law Talks. Mr, Mnlqueen (Dem.^ New York) said that the amendment should bo labeled \a bill to prevent home rul'o for cities.\ He did not believe that there should be any incorporation of cities by. special law. He proposed to limit the term of Bervlco of the mayor rather than extend it The present bill would extend the term of the mayor ot New York for one- year. He pro- posed that the mayors of. cities be elected for' one year until 1895, and then the mayor could be.elected so that his term would expire in the odd years. In class! flcatlon ' he would have three classes of cities—one of 360,000 inhabitants And up ward, one of 60,000 and upward, and the third class to take in all others.\ ' He found one serious defect, one that killed all home rule, in the section that allowed the legislature to pass general laws for one class of cities and have that law apply to one or more cities of another class. That would allow the passing of a petty law for the smaller! class of oitjes,; which would also apply to pew York. He advocated the T8moval|bf police officers andicommissioners by thie mayor only 4nd on charges. He could not sfee why tha gov- ernor Should.havo to ihterfejre.
