The Senate committee on the tariff re- ceived Wednesday its second print of the tariff bill, exceptii the administrative features. It Is not in bill form yet,butcon. tains, interleaved with the text of tho bill, tables prepared for the convenience at members of the 1-nbconunitteo, show- ing in parallel columns the rates by the present law', those by the Mille bill, and those propescd in the new bill. The whnl. makes a ileoninent of 251 pages. It is the last print to be made before the measure is laid before the fu'l committee, which is expected to occur next week. Members of the enbecmedittce and the conlnlittee Clerks and experts are now preparing matter for the report to no. company tho bill. The testimony end statements made to tate subcommittee, making about fifteen hundred pages are in print, and will be formally submitted to the full committee with the bill and rcpott. While net cxpreesing themselves very loudly, there is some doubt express- ed by the State Department officials eon. corning the propriety of conor'ess push- ing to its passage a bill such as that t:nw before the Senate, the Scott Chinese re- taliation measure, before this Government has received official information of the rejection of the Chinese treaty by the Celestials, "It will be particularly awk. ward for es," said one of them to your correspondent this morning, "ifweshould learn that the treaty has not been reject. 6d after all, There has been nothing officially hearth, yell l;flow, end even Min- ister Denby Saye that ho has no positive information to the effect that the treaty has been rejected. All that has been re. cei'ecd is an unofficial, unauthoratit'o die. patch from London, and it is a very slight thread on which to hong such lladicnl legislation as that of the Scott bill. I can see why it may be forced to its iassage, for, in view of coming events, neither political party wants to object to such an act, thereby Jeopardizing some hopes of success. China would have a good cause to Complain if the report of the rejection of the treaty should prove false and the bill should become a Jaw, notwithstanding the fact that it might ' be argued that the bill was an entirely domestic matter, It does not seem ex- actly courteous to be in snob haste." Army and naval officers aro greatly amused over a recently published para- graph to the effect that the English gov- ernment has, through a spy, discovered the secret of the American systems of torpedo warfare and defense. The story was that this spy, an officer, reached Washington a short time ago, and soon became acquainted with a number of naval officers. He attempted to discover the secrets of the torpedo system at the Navy Depart- ment, at Annapolis, Newport, New Lon- don, and finally at Fortress Monroe, but failed because the object of his visit was suspected at each place, De has finally, rune the account, found and sent to the London war office copies of all the draw- ings of the torpedoes and tho appliances for their use, and it is feared that ho has fathomed all the secrets of the American torpedo system, a knowledge particularly valuable, because, in the helpless con• clition of our sea coast, the Government is relying upon its excellent torpedo sys- tem to protect the country from foreign inva0101i. It wield seem, upon invrsti• to atthat the:1 a supposing ton, English li.h gE, spy, Inc Ig, is way I existence, has gone nut of h a Y to avoid the very discovery he is seeking, foe the only secret system of torpedoes in this country is a part of the harbor de- fense, and is conducted by the Army, while the Navy does not claim to have any torpedoes or torpedo eystems. There is but one kind of torpedo now in use in the Navy, of the "spar" type, This is considered as practically valueless in view of the better ones of foreign inven- tion and manufacture. But the Army system of torpedo warfare is on n differ• eat basis, that of defence, instead of of. fence which is the principle in the naval torpedo systems. There is at present but n one station for experiments 111 this science at Willett's Point, New York harbor t where there is an elaborate plant. The 1 'system of circular closers and of entries is C regarded as secret, andoarefnlly guarded. It 15 probably known to less than fifty c people. But there is no seerect in the a style of weapon, which is merely a case of an explosive substance anchored in the b channel of the entrance to a harbor. Maps have been carefully prepared of the various harbors of the United States, showing exactly the system of torpedo laying to be adopted in eaeb ease of em- b ergenoy. These maps are in duplicate, o one being at Willett's Point and one at g the office of the Chief of Engineers in this city, both being locked and guarded. o This is the most important motet of all and should the Engiish Government wish to learn the secret systems of Am- erican torpedoes it would have to go farther than to send one naval officer to peer around s half a dozen planes and buy copies of drawings of sows American inventions.
