Four of the children have sinoe died, and the doctors apprehend that the poison that each member consumed in the biscujts will kill the rest of the family. There is no suspioion of foul play, for the mother of the family who prepared the bisouits was also poisoned and her end is near. The stryohnine was left in the bouse by another negro family who recently occupied the house rented by Johnson. It was in a soda box, and the cook supply of the chemical being out she spied thia other box on the mantelpiece which oontained strychnine, but through ignorance thought it was soda. J)R.

May 11.—Chairman Mc- Kinley, of the Ways and Means Committee, will endeavor to have the general debate in the House on the tariff bill closcd in the morning. He said to-day that whatever doubt he may have had before, as to limiting general debate to four days, has been removed by the lack of interest shown by the members of the House iu the subject. Mr. McMilliu, of the Ways and Means Committee, speaking for the Democrats, says he will oppose closing the general debate to-morrow, but such a mo tion will no doubt be adopted by the House. The time this week will be all taken up by the tariff, while the Senate will continue the disojssion of the Silver bill The Republican Senators expect to reach some agreement on the bill in the morning.
