BILL
The Minority or the Ways and Means
Commutes Direct Attention te Weak
Points of the Republican Measure.
The minority report en the tariff bill Is
signed brail of the Ave Democratic mem
bers of the committee. It begins with the
following statement:
Upen the question of collecting such
revenue from duties en imported goods as
may be nssessary te pay the whole or a part
of the cost of conducting the government,
when economically administered, we are
new at the parting of the ways. Whether
such Uses shall be Imposed upon the
people for the payment of the ordinary
public espouses and the public debts, or
be Imposed for the purpese of Increasing
the cost of production and the prices of
certain article of domestic consumption,
is a question upon which there Is an Irrec
oncilable difference of opinion between
the two great political parties of the coun
try, and this question In Its platnest form
is directly presented for consideration by
the bill reported by tbe majority.
The minority, representing for the tlme
.being one of these parties, contends for the
prlnclple erjust and equal taxation upon
all according te their ability te bear tbe
burden, while the majority, representing
the ether party, has in this bill thoroughly
committed Itself te the policy of unjust and
unequal taxation of the many for the bene
fit or the few. We are as auxleus as the
majority can possibly be te promote and
encourage American industries and ad ad
vance the Interests of American laborers,
and these who impute te us any ether pur
pose or design either misunderstand or
misrepresent our position. But wn bo be bo
lleve that both these objects can be ac
complished by reducing the burdens of tax
ation, and net by increasing them, and that
the benefits thus secured will be far mere
permanent and far mere satisfactory te
these directly concerned than any sup
posed advantage that can result lrem a
different policy.
The minority declnre that Daniel Web
ster's pulley in Ills great Faneuil Hall
speech has been vorlfled. His words were
Jirephetlc. The prolonged discussion be be
ere the committee during the present ses
sion was net between the individuals and
corporations who receive the taxes and the
consumers who pay thorn, for very few of
these wero heard, but between the repre
sentatives of the various protected indus
tries, each contending for higher rates en
its own products or for lower rates en the
products of ethers. Except in cases where
combinations wero uiade between the In
terested partles, the conflict continued as
long as the bill romilned in the committee,
and the majority, alter months of patient
and laborious investigation, uas ueen auie
te satisfy a part only of tbe demands made
upon iu
The only remedy is te remove as far as
possible artificial burdensand restrictions
and glve te all our Industries an equal
chance in the Held of competition at home
and abroad.
According te the statement made before
the commlttce the protected Industries of
the country have never been at any time
In our history in such a dopressod
and discouraging condition as they
are new. After nearly thirty years
of continuous protection by government
taxation for thoirsuppert, agreat many of
them are reported te be en the very verge
of bankruptcy and ruin, whlle very lew
of them, according te the testimony, are
yielding a fair profit upon the capital in
vested. A great many of the parties en
gaged In these Industries have declared in
the course el our Investigation that the
slightest reduction In the rates or duty
new imposed upon competing foreign
products would compel thorn te close their
works and discharge their empleyes, and
ethers have even gene se far as te assert
that they will be forced te go out of busi
ness If tbe rates or taxutlen are net In
creased. At the same tlme the laborers in
tliose Industries are ceinpla! ning of Insuffi
cient wnires. runcated suspensions of work
and a eoneral condition of uncertainty
and Insecurity In their relations te these
who glve them employment, lbese
laborers, fully realizing the fact that this
system has wholly failed te increase their
earnings or improve their condition in any
wav, have been coinpellod te ornnlze
trail os unions and resort te ether methods
uf combination and cooperation for self
protection ; nnd these various organizations
new afford the only efficient means at their
command for the preservation even or the
existing rates of wages. When capital and
labor unite in declaring that our protected
industries are net prosperous under that
system, although it was designed and has
been maintained for their special bonefit,
the conclusion is Inevitable that thore Is u
vice in it bomewhore that ought te be re
moved ; for thore lsne reason te doubt
that in a ceuiJTry llke thlsevery productive
industry would be reasonably prosperous
If a wise and Just revenue and financial
policy preyaueu.
The report states that the remedy pro
posed by the majority Is the imposition of
mero taxes upon every nrtlcle of firelgn
origin and for which they ure ready and
anxious te oxc'iange the cotton w hleli they
cannot spin, the corn and wheat which
they cannot consume, the oil and coal
which they cannot burn, and many ether
product of our farms?, our lorests and our
mines.
These surplus products must find a
market somewhoro outtdde of the United
States. The impeits last year were 8745,
131,052, paid for mainly in our surplus
agricultural products. It would be Ini Ini Ini
posslhle for the people of the Unltsd States
te send out of the country thatxiiin In cash,
and every ene knows they did net de it.
It isnrgucd that our money should be spent
at -home. In fact it Is spent thore lu the
production, preparation and transportation
of the ortlcles we scud abroad te pay for
importations, nnd it they wero net sent
abroad the money could net be oxpended
here because tliore weuiu ue no marKci.
Under our uiiwIre system of taxation thore
Is no market which will pay our Industries,
and te attempt te remedy the evil by in
creasing the cost of production is fcimply
te begin at the wrong end and will greatly
oggravate the situation. It can be demon
strated .that we have the capacity te pro
duce most of the manufactured staples at
less cost and at the same time pay higher
wages than can be earned in any ether
country In the world, but In erder te de se
we must have some Imports lrem ether
countries free of duty. At a time when It
is confessed by all partles that the govern
ment does net need additional revenue,
but that thore ought te be a red action of its
receipts, the bill reperted by the majority
nreDOses te low upon a srreat inanv
articles of absolute necessity higher rates
of duty than were ever heretofore proposed
in any measure reported te Congress. The
original argument in favor of protective
duties was that they wero necessary te
fester Infant industries, Hut tbe present
bill Is based upon precisely the opposite
view. It Is framed upon the assumption
that as our Industries grew elder they
grew weaker and mere dependent upon
the bounty of the government. It de
volves upon these advocates new te ex
pluin. irtbey can, why It is that after a low
tariff policy has been abandoned for mere
than a quarter of a century and a high tariff
policy substituted in Its place, the manu
facturing and mechanical industries of the
country ure less uble te maintain thorn
selves than, they were when the change
was made; and when this Is dene, It will
still remain for them te show upon wuai
principle of justice or sound publie policy
consumers can be periodically subjected te
additional taxatleu net for the benefit of
the" government, which does net want the
revenue but for the exclusive benefit of
private business enterprises, which are net
uble te sustain themselves. The silk
bounty is severely criticised lu the repert.
It saysr -
The object of the proposed bounty is le
discourage these Importations, which cost
the people nothing unless they saw proper
te use silk goods, and te euceuragethe pro
duction of these articles here at an ex
pense of $1 a pound for the silk and 7 cents
a pound for the cocoons, lu addition te the
actual alue of the articles themselves, and
this expense Is te be charged te all the
people, whether they use silk goods or net,
and be paid out of the publie treasury.
At tht wan Urns the Mil proposes te
Biake enormeus1 increase In the rate en
woolen goods, which all ear people are
compelled te purchase and use, and very
Urge Increases la the rates en some kind
of cotton and linen geed which, are abso
lutely necessary for the health and com
fort of all classes. Continuing, the report
aye the bill will Increase the taxes en wool
and woolens $15,000,000 per annum, aocord aecord aocerd
ing te last year's Importations, but really
te a much greater sum, while taxes en to
bacco te the amount of $8,860,904 are abol
ished. The minority cannot agree te de
this at the priee of an Increase en necessa
ries. The only substantial reason alleged
for the repeal of the tobacco tax la the re
lief from government supervision, bat a
mere reduction erthe tax from 8 cent te 4
cent does net dispense with this supervi
sion or reduce the coat of collection. .The
report then attacks some of the details of
the bill as fellows :
The lowest grade of woolen yam. worth
net ever 90 cent er pound, are te be sub
jected te a duly of 112 per cent., while the
most costly yam will pay 72 per cent. One
grade of coarse, cheap blankets will be re
quired te pay 100 per cent, but the finest
blankets will pay 62 per cent. The coarsest
and cheapest woolen hats will be subject
te a duty of 111 per cent 'and the finest
te 60 per cent women's and children's
cheapest dress goods with cotton warp are
te be taxed 100 per cent, and the finest 73
per cent The lowest grade of woolen
cloths will pay 123 per cent and the
highest grade 86 per cent The cheapest
qualities or knit goods for underwear range
lrem 112 te 138 per cent, but the finest and
most ex penal ve .will pay 78 per cent
Woolen shawls of the coarsest and lowest
grade used by the poorest people will pay
135 per cent duty, and worsted goods of
the lowest grade will pay 130 per cent,
whlle the highest grade will pay 00 per cent
Or the motarschedules the report says that
thore are many increases, and scarcely any
reductions en artlcles that can be Imported
at all. x
Continuing the report says: We have for
a long time been endeavoring te increase
our trade with tbe poepleol Central and
Seuth Anierlca and Mexico, nnd at our
request an international conference Is new
being held te devise means for the accom
plishment of this result Thopeeplo of all
these countries had a right te suppose that
this government was acting In geed faith
when It invited tbem te send their dele
gates here, and that nothing would be done
te disturb the harmony ei their delibera
tions or prevent the success of their mis
sion; but ,in tbe midst of their consulta
tions, and when it was earnestly hoped that
some practicable plan might be agreed
upon for the establishment of closer com
mercial relations, this bill proposed con
taining previsions which will net only
retard reciprocal arrangements for the fu
ture, but destroy a large part of the trade
new existing between this country and
seme of our neighbors en the south.
The bill proposes te make large Increases
In the duties en carpet wools and take sil
ver ores containing lead from tbe free list
and subject the lead contained in the silver
ere te a duty of one cent and a half per
Eeuud, net because we need the revenue,
ut for tbe sole purpose erpreventlng these
articles from being Imported into this coun
try. Our total Importations of carpet wools
fromalLceuutrlos amounted te 00,560,400
pounds, and our total Importations of this
kind or ere were $0,051,719. All this wool
has been converted into carpets and ether
fabrics, and all these ores have been
smelted in tbe United States by American
workmen and their Importation has been
of great benefit te our people, in addition te
the profit realized from the trade between
the different countries.
The bill in fact Increases the tariff en all
classes of wool Imported Inte this country.
These Increases have been made principally
upon the demand of a few large ileck
masters in me suue ei iruiu, uu wuy win
be dofended by the majority upon the
alleged ground that they are beneficial te
the (armors of the country who keen sheep
en their lands. The fact Is that wool Is one
ofeur least Important agricultural products
in point of actual value and by comparison
with ethers, evon In the state of Ohie. It
does net amount te mero than 3 per cent
of the total value of farm products in that
statu, from which comes the most constant
und urgent demand for high rates of duty,
and it is still less In ether states.
Fer the further purpose or Inducing the
farmers of the country te lielleve that they
can nnd will dorlve seme benefit from the
protucttve policy this bill Imposes various
rates of duty upon certain Important agri
cultural products, which it is well known
could net be imported te any material ox ex
tont with or without duty.
It Is impossible te protect the farmer
against foreign competition in his home
market, for he has no such competition,
and the Insertion or retention of theso
articles In a tariff bill Is a device which
will decelve no one who gives a moment's
thought te the subject. During the last
fiscal year we exported 09,592,924 bushels
of com and imported only 2,388 bushels,
net mere than can be produced en 250
acres of geed land in this country. We
exported 312,180 barrels el corn meal and
imported 390 bushels. Our experts of
wheat amounted te 40,414,129 bushels
and our imports amounted te 1,910 bushels.
Slatements show new tutne it is te at
tempt te afford protection te the farmers of
the country by imposing duties upon the
Importation of theso products, and this
large and intelligent class or citizens can
not be reconciled lu this way te a policy
which Increases taxes upon tlieir clothing,
tableware, carpets, earthenware, glassware,
agricultural implements and ether neces
sary articles. Among ether things upon
which the dutles are increased by this bill
are Iren und steel roils used in the manu
facture of fencing wire, nn artlcle of ab ab ab
selute necessity te the fanners of the West,
and or hoop or band iron or steel, cut te
length, or wholly or partly manufactured
into hoops or ties for bailing purpeses, in
cluding hoops for barrels.
Hew the fanners are te be helped by the
Increased duties en live nnlmals we are
vnelly unable te soe, and, In our opinion,
ir this bill passed they will be the first te
deniand a restoration or the old rates or
that these Importations be made froe.
Whlle the Imposition or the duties en
llve animals and ether agricultural pro
duct) cannot possibly de our ftirnters any
geed at home, the increase made by this
bill en manufactured and ethor articles
which we Impert will certainly be a great
injury te thorn abroad In the markets A'here
they are compelled te Bell their surplus.
Such u pellcv Is certaln te provoke retalia
tory legislation by the countries te which
we expert our agricultural products, and
already France, Germany and ether coun
tries have made discriminations against us
which have severely affected tbe sale of
our breadstulls nnd previsions. If this
bill passes the Dominion of Canada, the
Republic of Mexico and the various
governmentsof Central and Seuth America
villi 1 most, certalnlv pursue the same
course, and as a result of this commercial
warfare the farmers will seen find them
selves without a market for their surplus
products either at home or abroad.
Ne reduction has been made in the
amount of duties Imposed under any
schedule except that relating te sugar and
molasses. In all the ethor thirteen sched
ules or dutiable goods, embracing almost
every Important article the people use, ex
cept tea and ceffee, which have been free
for many years, increases are made, nnd
in many of them the Increase is very
large.
The report criticises the sugar bounty and
pretest against the gross favoritism and In
justice of such a policy. It savs that the
bounty en List year's production would
have been 87,520,000. llut as it Is expected
te enceurage the producers te supply the
entire domestlo deniand the ultlmate
result, evon If the consumption remained
at last year's figures 2,700,421,302 pounds
would bean annual payment of $01,528,
426 in bounties. The sugar duty la de
fended as far mere Just and equltable
than these en many ether articles,
and whlle the minority believe the
duty should be reduced they cannot see
the Justice or propriety of making this
revenue article free, paying a bounty and
making this an excuse ter imposing w,
000,000 additional taxes en the ether sched
ules or necessaries. The minority find it
Impossible te state with accuracy the effect
of the Increases. Tbey express the opin
ion that the Increase of the tobacco duty
will be $10,305,925 and that ether Items will
show an Increase or ever $3,000,000. Add
ing these amounts te the $10,055,152 shown
by the committee's tables te have been
added te the duties of articles remaining
oath dutiable list shows total lecrsas
LANCASTER,
of duties en articles still dutiable, eutajde
erthe sugar schedule, of about $00,000,000,
and we are satisfied it Is mers than that
We de net mean te assert that the blljj ac
tually Increases the custom revenue $05,
000,000 ever what It Is under existing lew,
but that It proposes te Impose upon the
articles it leaves upon the dutiable list
except sugar and molasses, that sura In
exeess erthe amount collected en the same
schedules last year. It places upon the free
list articles which yielded a revenue of
$6,088,960 during the last fiscal year, and it
makes a reduction of $54,822,110.60 en sugar
and molasses, and thess two sums, amount
ing te $80,962,070.68 being deducted from the
$86,800,000, leaves a net Increase of mere
than $4,800,000 In tariff taxation under this
In conclusion the report says: While we
would gladly co-operate with the majority
In the passage of any measure which would
relieve the people from unnecessary taxa
tion, promote the prosperity Ofeur various
Industries, and secure ample wsges and
steady employment te the laborers engaged
In tbem, we feel constrained te make an
earnest pretest against this bill, because,
in our opinion. It will net accomplish any
of these desirable results.
FREDKRICK HOEFKL'S DEATH.
He Passes Away Frem llrlght's DIaeane
After Taking a Dock-Set.
Frederick Heefel, one of Lancaster's
best known carpenters and builders, died
en Wednesday afternoon at his home, 133
East Walnut at root, botween 4 and 5 o'clock.
The cause of his death was Drlght's disease
of tbe kldneys. He was taken sick during
the winter and It was then believed that he
would nover recover. Ue was confined te
his house and bed for along tlme, and sev
eral times he soemed te be at death's deer,
lie rallied, howevor, and was again able te
be about lie was out en the street as usual
and it was hoped that the worst was ever.
About a week age he hed a back-net and he
rapidly grew worse until his death.
Mr. Hoefel was born In Barltngen, Wur
temburg, July 22d, 1817, and was therefore
in the 43d year at the time of his death. Ue
came te America in 1800 and the first place
he stepped was at Intercourse where he had
an undo, with whom he remained for sev
eral months. He next came te Lancaster
and worked at cablnet making, a trade he
had learned in the old country, for Henry
Wolf. After being with him for a time be
went te work at carpentering for the late
Philip Dlnkloberg. He remained with
him for seme years and about fifteen years
age started in business for himself as a
contractor. He did a great deal of work,
erecting a large numhoref buildings in this
city. Among tliose that he put up was
Moennerehor hall. It was whlle he was
building the concert hall addition te the
Mwnnoreher hotel that he was taken 111.
Mr. Heefel was very successful In his busi
ness and was considered an excellent me
chanic. The deceased did net belong te any secret
societies, but was an enthusiastic member
of the Lancaster Mionncrcher. He was an
actlve member of that organization for
many years and sorved as Us president
for several terms. Hi always took a great
deal of lntoreBt In anything that was done
by the society and was always willing le
lend his aid in managing or arranging enter
tainments or doing anything else for Its aid.
He was also ene of the beard of directors
of the Mamnorcher Hull association. Mr.
Hoefel was a kind and loving father, a
Jovial, whole-souled man, and Lancaster
loses a geed citizen. In politics be was a
Democrat and he was a candldate for
council upon the Sixth ward tlcket at ene
tlme. Ue leaves a wife, who was a Miss
Heffman, and nlnechlldren, some of whom
are qulte young. His brether, Christian,
also lives In this city.
WHAT MAY HK3ULT.
The Fight Between HallreadaMay End In
llrldiclmi the ltlver at Chlckles.
Frem the Baltimore Bun.
The fight that is new pending In the
Pennsylvania courts between the Heading
and Pennsylvania railroad companies is
causing comment In railroad circles as te
the probable effect the outcemo of the
litigation will have upon the existing
contract between the Reading and Western
Maryland reads whereby the fermer is te
have connection with the West evor the
latter read and the Ualtlmore fc Ohie. The
connection will make the Heading a strong
competitor with the Pennsylvania and with
ether proposed connections will take from
the Northern Central, an adjunct or the
Pennsylvania system, much or the busi
ness that new com eh te that read from the
Heading. The policy In tbe present fight
seems te be in the same line as that adepted
by the Pennsylvania when it first built the
Schuylkill Valley read as a retaliatory
measure for the Heading's projected Seuth
Penn connection and by afterward ab
sorbing that project through a deal
with the Vanderbllls, who wero largely
interested lu tbe south l'enn, wnereuy me
Pennsylvania transferred Its control in the
West Shere read in exchange for the Seuth
Penn, the deal costing them, It is said, 85,
000,000 or $0,000,000. It is known that a
contract has been signed by the Heading
and Wostern Maryland reads for mutual
connection en the two lines. In the
one case a short line Is te be built
from Harrisburg te liowniansdale, nnd
from Wllllamspert te Cherry run, which
will givn Heading Its connection with
the ilaltimore .t Ohie for the West. The
ether is the projected bridging or the Sus
quehanna at Chlckles and the building
or a line from that point te Perter's en the
Western Maryland read, through which
the Heading will have a clese run Inte Haiti Haiti
mere. President Jehn M. Heed, of the
Western Maryland, was seen ycterday in
reference te the pending fight und asked
what effect It would have upon the contract
with his read and the Heading. He said
he thought it w euld net ufiect It In the
least The Heading, he stated, had u
large ferce at work bridging the Susque
hanna at Unrrlsburg for the proposed
connection, and had notified him officially
that they had gene te work In carrying
out their part of the agreement and that
they expected the Western Maryland te be
equally us prompt. Mr. Heed stated that
he would seen have matters in shape for
beginning the work en his part nd that
he regarded the connections under the
existing contract as nil assured tact that
would net be stepped by any fightln which
the Heading and Pennsylvania may be
involved.

lished a sensational artlcle te the effect that
ex-Prestdent Cleveland was undergoing a

was gaining In weight at the rate or
twenty-five pounds a month, and that both
be aud his friends were seriously alarmed
at his condition.
A reporter called nt Mr. Cloveland's

should, at his tlme of llfe, and lu his ap
parent peculiar inental condition, be
molested in his amusement."
Continuing, Mr. Cleveland said that he
bad ondeavorod since coming te tbe city te
reslde te mind his own business. He bad
net tried te force himself Inte promlnenco,
and bad rather courted the retirement of
private llfe. If he should accept all the In
vitations he received for social enjeyments
he would have te abandon his law prac
tice, se he had decided net te accept any.
He had loon treated with a great deal or
kindness and consideration by the (leople
of the city, und he appreciated it ther-
Ide net care," Mr. Cloveland wlded,
"hew much I am criticised for any public
acts j that is perfectly legitimate, nnd I
recegnize the right or every man te cimer
en public questions. Thore Is a line, how
ever, It seems te me, where criticism und
ubuse should top. The man who luvodes
the privacy of a 'family and indulges In
cearse and wanton attacks en n private
citizen Is net better' than a highway
robber; he places himself en a level with
n blackguard und his comments can have
no weight"
Hegarding the frequent personal attacks
upon himself In the All minis of the A'uit,
Mr. Cloveland said that whlle he nover
saw them, every time ene appeared a dozen
cranks, morn or less, would write te him
about it. " I knew that the senlle old liar
aud thief, Dana, has been at it again. That
Is the eulv way I keep track of his inental
ravings. "The object Is, I suppose, te annoy
me and my friends.
"There is only ene thing," resumed
Mr. Cleveland, mid a tender oxpressloii lit
up his face, "that I care anything about in
the attacks. They are net oenllued te my
self. It seems that Dana dees net contlue
his warefare te men. Women are net froe
from bis dastardly assaults. Mrs. Cleve
land has net escaped.
"It Is bad enough te print his untruth
ful statements regarding myself: but It Is
infinitely innre cowardly aud dasturdly for
him te lnclude, as he has dene, my wife in
his attacks. Nothing could be mere con
temptible or se far removed from all In
stincts or manhood 1"
There was no language, the ex-presldcnt
said, strong enough te characterize the
conduct or such a man. If Dana was irbt in
his dotage, with the fat all gene lrem hi
body te Tils bruin, and with ene feet In the
grave, his raving would attract mere at
tention. Changing the subject, Mr. Cloveland
spoke of the recent elections, and sild they
were mero than gratifying te the Democ
racy. The result In Hhede Island or the
by-elertlens held in the city of Provldence
was especially idgnlflcuutand encouraging.
It was a strong vindication of the ballet re
form law,
" Frem all I have heard." Mr. Cloveland
added, " the Itepiibllcaiiu made a tremen
deus otlert te carry tne iiy-oieciiens" in
Providence. The conditions were luvorti luverti luvorti
bie te the HepuhlicuiiH, and they hikjiiI a
great deal of money. The Itepubllcnn
manufacturers who have been lu the habit
of Intimidating their workmen could net
de It under the new law In Providence
Kvery friend of ballet reform will hall the
result In Hhede Island as inesl cuceurag-
"Leeking at It from the highest mid
lowest stand points, it aeeuis te me that the
Democrats will be the gainers by the adop
tion of ballet reform ull ever the country.

CHAlttlK AGAINST A MINISTER,
Hev. Mower Ferges n Net nnd Leaves
Ills Heme In Intercourse,
Rev. Z. C. Mower, pastor of the United
Brethren church of Intercourse, is a fugi
tive from justlce, fera very serieus offense.
The charge against him is altering a note
and forging tbe nnme or Abraham R.
Kurtz, a member of bis church.
Complaint was nude some days ntre be
fore Justice Kennedy, but the warrant wns
net served, as the reverend gentteman said
he would fix the matter te the satisfaction
of Mr. Knrts.
On Sunday Rev. Mewer disappeared,
and the supposition Is that he fled te Phila
delphia. It U known that he bought a
ticket at Leaman Place for Philadelphia en
that day. After hla flight the warrant for
his arrest was placed In the hands of a
Lancaster officer.
The nole altored was discounted nt the
Gap bank. It was originally for $40, but
It was raised te $140. Anether nete te
which Mr. Kurtz's nnme wns forged Is
held by the Lancaster County bank.
In the vicinity of Intercourse it Is
thought that Mewer has been engaged In
this business for a long tlme, meeting his
forged notes with forged ronewats.
Mower Is a man of middle age and has
been In the ministry for 18 years. He has
hud charges In Lancaster and Dauphin
counties. Over a year age he was transferred
from Mlddlotewn. Ue Is a native of
Dauphin county nnd his father and flve
brothers are preachers of the Ooipel.
Ills first charge In Lancaster county was
the Pequea mlstlon,whero he was stationed
for four years. He was at Manchester,
Md., for threo years, the same length of
tlme at Mlddlotewn and at Intercourse
slnce Octeber, 1889.
WANT THE CHAHTKU ANNULLED.
A Commlttce or Lancaster Stockholders
In ITnrrlsburtrTe-dny.
Abraham Ultner, Dr. Walter Ilenrdmnn
nnd Goe. M. Askew, representing the Lan
caseor minority stockholders of the Key
stone Standard Watch company, went te
Harrisburg te-day. They will employ
ceunsel te appear before the atterney gen
eral te take steps looking te a revocation of
the charter of the company.
The ground upon which the revocation
Is nsked Is that the law wns violated because
$50,000, ten per cent of the capital stock,
was net paid In as directed by law. If the
charter is revoked It will only be after a
long contest. The Philadelphia stockhold
ers will resist It, as will Geergo M. Frank
lin and W. Z. Sener, the latter mere par
ticularly, bocause It yill make them re
sponsible for the mortgage of $50,000 cre
ated when they wero officers, and oil acts
done by the corporation will be void.
The doclsien te make an effort te have
the charter annulled was agreed upon at a
meeting of the Lancaster stockholders,
held en Wednesday ovenlng, at Geergo M.
