The Male Confederates of Addle Stanton Neatly Arrested A Bold Robbery Flot Unfolded It Wm Defeated by Daly Brave Resistance. New York, Dec 7. The grt Phil Daly mystery, which has kept New York in a high 6tate of perplexity and expectation since Monday, hastwen entirely cleared up through the energy and capability of New York's famous detective chief, Inspector Byrnes.

The two men who did the shooting are behind the strong bars which guard the cells at police headquarters. They were placed there last night after practically confessing to the crime which almost cost Phil Daly his Ufa The latter gentleman, by the capture of the criminals, is placed under manifold obligations to Inspector Byrnes, chief of which is that it proves his story of the occurrences in the flat on Fourth avenue to be true to the letter. When Inspector Byrnes learned Monday night of the unprecedented attempt at mur-cUr aud robbery in the flat of Addie Stanton on Fourth avenue, in which two mysterious masked men, two women of, more than questionable reputations, and Phil Daly were the chiof characters, he dispatched two detectives, Hickey and Crowley, to work up the case; Jn the meanwhile the inspector was not idle himself. He had separate interviews with each of the women connected in the case, but what construction he put on the tors. saloon at Ninth and Divisic? es-ir yesterday morning.

7. The senate resumed the consideration of the tariff bill, beginning with schedule which covers earthen ware and glass warn Mr. McPherson called attention to schedule and said, to his mind, the rates of duties, provided in the senate bill were an increase on the existing rates. He reserved the right to offer some amendments hereafter to the glass and pottery items. Hoar also reserved the right to offer some amendments to the glass paragraphs.

No amendment, except as to two formal changes of phraseology was made to schedule and the senate proceeded to the consideration of schedule relating to metals. I I Mr. Plumb balled attention to the paragraph as to beams, girders and joists, and spoke of the iron; and steel combinations in this country. lie moved to amend by reducing the rate from 1 1-10 cents per pound to 1 Mr. Harris called attention to the fact that the existing duty on these articles was equivalent to an ad valorem rate of 102.75 per cent that the rate of 6-10 cents per pound, proposed by the house bill, was equivalent to 49.32 per cent arid that the rate proposed in the senate substitute was equivalent to 90.43 percent He moved to amend the amendment by fixing the rate at 6-10 cents per pound.

Mr. Allison opposed Mr. Harris' amendment, saying that it went to the root of the whole iron and steel schedule. He had no doubt that if the present rate of duty were maintained the competition would be sufficient, in a very short time, to break down the prices. Mr.

Aldrich also opposed Mr. Harris' amendment The adoption of the amendment, he said, would necessarily involve the recommittal of the; bill or its abandonment It would certainly; be an abandonment of the protective feature of the bill.
