THURSDAY EVENING, DEC. 1, 1881.
Steel Rail Steal.
Mr. Monre I'eints Out a "Tarill Iiiiquilj."
In a letter te tbe Aincrican Iren and
Steel association Mr. J. S. Moere, the ex
perienced writer en the taiiu question,
says:
The tax en the bteel tails ib exactly
$28 per ten. I cannot de better than lay
before you an extract from Mr. David A.
Wells's letter te tbe Iowa Stale Leader,
printed Nev. 5, exposing the enormity of
this iniquitous "steel rail klcpte, " Mr.
Wells says :
"And bow much decb the tax
at present amount te annually? Let
us see. The domestic production
of steel rails for the year 1SS0
was 954, 4C0 net tens ; the impottatiens
were 158,20 tens, indicating n domestic
consumption for the year el" 1,112,090
tens. The average price of the American
product for the year 1880 was $07.50.
The average pi ices of Bessemer rails in
Great Britain ler the same period wcie be
tween t'C and 7, or fiem u0 te ijy.j. It
is, thcicfeic, clear that the full pound of
Hush $28 per ten which the tarill allows
was taken en all the Bessemer steel rails
bought and used in the United States
dining the year 18S0, and that
this inclement of price in eon
sequence which was a tax u
domestic consumption amounted in the
aggicgatc te $31,155,320. Thiityetie mil
liens of dollars! Iruly a big sum! A
sum se large that the mind is unable te
take its mcasuic except by instituting
comparisons, or (hiding out hew much the
same number of dollars will buy of some
ether commodities. Let us, thciufme, as
a help te mental couiprcliciiMeu, insitute
seme of these tests or comparisons. TIiu-s,
if a mau wcie te attempt te count this
sum at the rate of a dollar a second, it
would take him mere than a year, wet Ic
ing 24 bems a day, or moie than two
yea is at 12 hours a day te de it. It reptc
sents mere than three times the eulin.uy
expenses of the fedcial government in the
year 1800; and meic than half the eidi
naiy cxpcudituies of the government dur
ing the last year of Buchanan's adminis adminis
tiatieii' This expose, staitliug as it is, would be
incomplete if net a still mete .serious
charge wcie made agaim-t the 11 steel rail
monopolies.
Mr. Wells gees en in his aiticluaud
says: "Let us still tuiu another leaf in
this curious histety of the American Bes
semer steel monopoly. Hcictofeio it h.is
been found impracticable te make Bcst
mcr steel of iien pieduccd fiem ere con
taining sulphur or phospbeius in appie appie
ci.ible quantities, and as most English and
American ores of iron contain the.se .siil -stances,
the supply of piepcr iienha:; been
a somewhat exiicusive and tioublesenii;
mailer te both BuglNh and American Bes
semer steel makcis. Within a vciy iceei t
period, however, a method Known as ! lie i
'Gilchrist-Themas pieccss ' has been tin; i
covered iu England, wheieby, at .small
cxjicnse, any oieef ion can be used ler
the manufacture of Bessemer steel, and
the patent light te its exclusive use iu the
United States has been aKe puicbased by
the American Bessemer steel associa
tion. According te the last lcpeit of the
American lien and Steel association (July,
18S1), this new pieccss 'has been success
fully adopted iu ncaily all the.
steel-making count lies of Europe,'
and 'that England thus adds another
te the list of her important in
ventions allectiug the maituf.ictute of iron
and steel.' But the United State", alone
of all the steel-making countries iu the
weild, has net yet adopted this gtcat im im
pievemcut and apparently will net fei the
piescnt. Fer it is well understood that
the ' eleven associates' who own the pat
ents for the 'Themas-Gilchrist jmeclss iu
the United States, de net find it ler their
iutcicst, with the piescnt latie of piefits
en the manufactuie of Bessemer steel, te
adept any innovations, and that they
further de net piopese te i&uc licenses te
anybody else te use it, for any loyally
which it would be possible te pay And
thus in the name of piotcctieti te Ameri
can industry, the march of impievcincnt
and tbe cheapening of a gieat necessity of
civilization aic arrested.9'
Tlicre is ene native product centiectLil
with the stcel rail pioduetieu that needs
no protection, and that is the unlimited
pioductien of " misstatements." In
an article printed this morning in a daily
paper, aud evidently written by a steel I
lail monopolist iu answer te the Wells ar '
ticle cited above, 1 lum the tollewmg :
" But a ceuuter calculation might be
made which is quite as fair aud convincing
as Mr. Wells's little sum. The price of
steel rails in 1880 was about $100 less per
ten than i t was before the taiilf en steel
permitted American competition, and.
therefore (logic is logic !) $100 was saved
en every one of the 1,112,C90 ten-; used
during'.the year, amounting toagre'-s gain
of $111,209,000. New, a slew euumeiater
could consume a long life time in counting
all thes3 dellais, and if they wcie conveit cenveit
cd into tobacco they would make a strip
of Gravely plug which would icach from
Connecticut te the moon."
New the highest price for steel rails- was,
I believe, in 1871-2, when it went up for a
short time te .'20 per ten iu England.
But after tbe German speculation mania,
after the war, was ever, the price went
down te .47 a ten in 1873-4, wlicicas, in
1809-70 the price in England was en an
average less than $80 a ten ; in fact it sold
in 1871 at 12 a ten. I suppose it would
be useless te ask tbe laiheal managers
new a ten of rails' was cheapened $100
since the tariiT. Steel rail monopolists
may wince at Mr. Wells's attack, but they
caunet impeach its correctness, as there
never was a mere outrageous monopoly.
As for the benefit te the working men, I
want te ask the stcel rail makcis icpLc
santcd in this convention whether or net
the Vulcan steel rail works in St. Leuis
wre 8hut up, receiving a royalty from the
association for net producing steel iai!s,
and whether such a policy was calculated
te benefit the working men of St. Leuis.
But I cannot clese my remarks en the
steel rail duty without calling te mind that
in June last the pig iron producers of this
country bitterly complained that the Bes
semer steel rail makers were using the
foreign pig iron te the detriment of the
home-made pig iron. A number of letters
sent out by tbe St. Leuis Age te the sev
eral steel rail rolling mills brought, among
ether answers, ene from the Cambria iron
company, signed by its general manager,
D. J. Merrell, from which I append the
following extract :
"It is uufortuuate that extreme depies depies
sien of prices in England has broken the
metal market here, and if mauufaciuicrs
of Bessemer steel have bought Enjdjsh
pig-iron it is because, as Mr. Garrison
says, it is mero than several dollars
cheaper in price than American. They cin't
very well help themselves, for they are in
the market as purchasers, aud however
much they may dislike the situatieu they
have get their stockholders behind them,
and they would have te give a geed reason
for paying $3 or $4 mere than the market
price. What the president of a steel com
pany might like te de personally and what
be is ebliged te de officially may be quite a
diucicnt thing."
New, I call your attention te the sage
and unanswerable ruie laid down by Mr.
Merrell, the vciy high priest of protec
tion, that a company is obliged te buy a
material iu the cheapest market, and it
would have te cive a ceed reason te its
fchatcheldcrs for paying $3er $4 nioie than
market price. Well, then, when the great
American public mildly asks that a reduc
tion of duty should enable them te buy
cheaper rails, which cost iu England $32 a
ten aud in America $00, such a mere pre
position is denounced as unpatriotic, as a
wreuji te American industry and labor.
But when it is applied te the steel rail
makers themselve?, and when they are
asked te suppeit home-made pig-iron they
shelter themselves in an excuse there is no
alternative, aud that the stockholders
have a right iu the matter. Thus
Mr. Mei roll justly establishes a privileged
clas;-, whose light le buy iu a cheaper
maikct must net be questioned. But the
American ceusumcis must net be allowed
the same privilege. They are the serfs et
the steel rail monopolists whose millions,
accumulated tint of the pockets of the
people, mlc by "Divine right'' against
which all agitation is high treason. But
will the steel lail interest icpicscntcd in
your convention give a geed reason why
steel lails should be taxed 90 percent,
and pig-iron only a little ever 37 per cent'.'
Yet such is the lact.
Iu 1880 we imported plg-ir "i valued at
$11,018,999.05, en which there was col
lected a duty ($7 per ten) amounting te
$4,318,107.19, which is just 37 10-100 per
cent., whereas the duty en steel rails was
90 per cent. The duty ou woolen goods is
se manifestly outrageous that it needs
h.tidly any comments fiem me. But 1
confess that it is ncce&sary te lcduce the
new oncieus duty ou law wool, which is a
standing evil, and that the duty ou woolen
goods can euly be modified with a cor cer cor
icspenditig lediietieti of duty en law
wool. I may, however, call your at
'tctitkm te the fact that the present
duty en woolen goods is decidedly
atl valeiem, although it is mixed up
with a specific duty. And I sec no cai thly
icaseii, if the piescnt double duty can be
faithfully collected, why a puic aud sim
ple 50 per cent, late of duty en all woolen
gee 1.- would net meet the desired modifi
cation. As I intend te lay bcfoie you
the duties collected ou all ai tides con cen
Miuicd in 1880 that paid a higher rate of
duty than 50 per cent., I shall in myic
.suiue be able te point out the total appar
ent less te the levi'iiuu if such a modifica
tion wcie made. I .say a total apparent
less, because I feel convinced that the
icvciiue would iu the end be ;athcr a
gainer by the change.
