When the Democratic tariff conferees adjourned last night after an all day's session it looked as though thoy were nearer to an agreement than at any time thut far, and yet the agreeniet itself, which it the great end in view, had not been attained. The hopes of the conferees laat night that definite results would be reached and made publio on Saturday failed to be realized.

The agreement on sugar had not been reached beyond the lull of a recall, nor had agreements been reached on iron ore or coal. Tha day cloaed, however, much better than it opened. It had brought out the fact that it was the sugar schedule submitted aa the ultimatum by conservative senators which would be accepted by the house confurces, and tint there was little else than a formal and final announcement of this acceptance to make the agreement on tho sugar schedule complete. So fully satisfied were the house conferees that this schedule woultl prevail that they urged it advantages on their colleagues on the house aide, and pointed out that in their opinion it would secure benefits to the trusts by per cent over the original senate schedule. In view of the fict t'-at the proposition came from the senators the willingness of the house men to point out its advantageous features indicated tha common ground they Wer occupying.

To th Utor nf Tkt Tritmnt: gmF In rtading corresjiondence in your columns referring to the stand taken by Patrons aa to amalgamating or fienUDg ths Liberals, I am reminded of a lik political situation in F.ngUod. The Radicals of Kagland, like the Patrons of Manitoba, assume the hole suit of Liberal armor and a little more.

But unlike the Patrons they do not tiout and sneer at the Liberals, but identify themselves with them, and place themselves as a vanguard or foiemoat fighting corps in the Liberal army, crying continually to ths less enthusiastic to haaten to ths battle and strike ture aud hard. Thia haa long been the Radical policy and it to etlectual that the whole Liberal body it continually Uking up more advanced ground at the aolicitation of tbe advanced Radical. Let the Patrons declare themselves the advance 1 tuard of the Liberal army Canada, aud they will gain their euds, the adoption and realiatioa of their platform much more quickly than by eoor-tog, flouting and even fighting (as they threaten to do) their natural allies.

A LlUEKAL. Douglas, Aug. 2. That Cement Joke. To tht Editor of the Tribune.

Sir, The alleged joke of which th North Lndcra' Protective association! was made the victim, aud which seems to have atforded such terrific merriment to the board of works, haa fallen rather flat on the North Kod Protective association. Indeed, notwithstanding the dignified letter of Kn-gineer Rattan and the solemn allidavit of one James Charles Karl, there waa no prao tical Joke perpetrated on the association. At a meeting held by the association some time ago, some one handed in a paper bag full of wbat purported to be cement, but no notice waa taken of it aud the circumstauce was not even mentioned in a publio way, and Mr. Karl swore to what was falae if he niesui that the cement was discussed iu public. If a tew gentlemen who wer pre-sent looked at the stuiT and believed it came from the Boundary street bridge pier, the association cannot help it, it was in no wise responsible, for the general opinion, I believe, that the stuff did not come from the Boundary bridge pier.

The inci- i dent only provoked a luugh. When one coiiies to think of the troublo th engineer went to, to work up hii letter and Mr. Kirl's solemn allidavit, the conviction forces itself home that the joke is a ghostly one, and instead of being at the expense of the association, lik a boomerang, it has slumped around and hit the eugineer and hit alb davit maker. Henry Dowse, President North Kudert' Protective Association. ii Panic at a Ball Game.

Ciui ai.o, Aug. 5. Time was called in the seventh innings at the Chicago-Cincinnati ball game at the West Side park by the cry of fire, followed by a scene never before witnessed at a sporting event in thi city. Curiosity to see the fire led more than a thousand spectator to rush into danger and in their frantio effort to extricate themselves frm their perilous position they became piuiio stricken. They found themselves hemmed in by fire on one side and barbed wire fences on the other, erected to keep the people from encroaching oa the diamond.

The exit were few and amall and although other means of escape were provided by thv quick action of player Ryan and TViImot, of the local team, and I'resident Hart, the imperilled and fear-crazed crowd ran against the barbed fencing. Their mad ruth to get away from the advancing flame resulted in th injury of (core. Cut, bruises, a broken arm and broken leg were the injuries sustained. Many of the victimt, although badly hurt, left the grounds before the police or ether could get their names. Rebels Gathering Strength.

The Herald's special cable from Valpariao says: Advice received here from Peru state that the rebels are gathering strength on the north coast and alao in tbe interior of the country.
