A Lone Preamble and Resolution In Favor of
Tariff for Revenue.
Washington, December 5. In the Sen
ate to-3a J Mr. Voorhees offered a long pre
amble and resolution in reference to tariff
taxation, which he asked to have laid upon

existing tariff taxes on foreign merchandise
should be revised, repealed, or amended, as
to provide:
First For the collection of a sufficient
amount of revenue to pay the expenses of
the Government, economically adminis
tered; the principal and interest of the pub
lic debt as they fall due, and liberal pen
sions; but not a dollar more.
Second For the taxation of all articles of
luxury at the highest practicable rates, and
for the reduction of taxes on all necessaries
ot civilized life, such as salt, sugar, woolen
goods, iron, steel and other staple commodi
ties, to the lowest possible rates consistent
witn a tariff for revenue and for nothing but
revenue.
Third For the curtailment and pver
throw, as far as possible, of all monopolies
in trade, by the enlargement of the free liii
to the full extent that the same can be done
without impairing and endangering the
necessary re venues of the Government, hav
ing in view at all times and nnder all cir
cumstances a liberal policy, of trade with
the people of other countries, and the estab
lishment of equal and exact justice among
ourjjwn citizens with exclusive privileges to
none.
Mr. Voorhees will hereafter call up the
resolution and address the Senate upon it

A CRIME CONFESSED
Five Team Alter It Bad Been Committed
Another Man Insane Because of a
false Accusation A Sensa
tloual Disclosure,
rsrxctii. teleqbaic to tb dibpatciM
Toungstown, December 8. A sensa
tion was caused here on October 20, 1884, by
the disappearance of a package of $7,508
from the office of the United States Express
Company, which was in transit from New
Lisbon, O., to Pittsburg. Information was
obtained this afternoon from an authorita
tive source that detectives at work on the
case have obtained a confession fromW. "W.
Nivison, located near Coldwater, Mich.,
who was agent of the company at the time,
admitting that he took the package, and
giving explicit details, of the manner in
which the robbery was worked, and assert
ing that no one was implicated with him in
the theft. At the time of the robbery all
the employes here were placed under sur
veillance, but no cine obtained, and so sus
picion attached to Nivison. Dal Mikesell
was accused of the theft by an official, but
was not arrested. ,
The accusation preyed so heavily on sis
mind that he became insane and was sent to
the hospital for the insane at Cleveland.
There he still remains with no improvement
in his mental condition. Nivison remained
here several weeks alter the robbery, and
then it was given out that he had resicned
and located in Coldwater, Mich., where he
engaged in farming. Uecently a house
nirnwl hv Mm. insured for 1.400. was
burned to the ground, and he was tracked
to Fremont. Mich., Snd arrested on a cnarge
of arson. Superintendent Mitchell, of theex
press company, who had been working on
the case, interviewed Nivison and obtained
the confession referred to. Nivison will be
brought here for trial.
COMYICTED OP DEEEST.
Tne Wisconsin Congregational Convention
Bounces an .Erring Brother.
Milwaukee, December 5. By a vote
of 16 to 13 the Wisconsin Congregational
Convention, in session at Kaukeana to-day,
convicted the Kev. E. Smith, of Oshkosh,
of heresy. The charges were that his belief
and teaching were not in harmony with
Congregational belief. The effect of the
vote is to disfellowship Mr. Smith, and the
action will probably cause a split in the
convention. The young men, Beys. Miller,
Loomis and Eeed, made an application for
admission to the convention.
When asked by the Committee on Cre
dentials if they assented to the creed,
they said they did substantially, but
denied the light of this convention
to requl fe such an assent as a basis of their
admission. The discussion waxed warm at
times. Loomis and Miller were finally ad
mitted, but Kev. Eeed, of Sheboygan, was
refused fellowship on a vote of 12 to 11.

CATARRH
Is a complaint 'Which affects nearly everybody,
more or less. It originates In a cold, or succes
sion oC colds, combined with impure blood.
Disagreeable flow from the nose, tickling in the
throaty offensive breath, pam over and between
the ejes, ringing and bursting noises in the
earsare the more common symptoms. Catarrh
is enred by Hood's Sarsaparilla, which strikes
directly at Its cause by removing all impurities
from the blood, building up the diseased tissues
and giving healthy tone to the whole system.
"For several years I have been troubled with
that terribly disagreeable disease, catarrh. I
took Hood's Sarsaparilla with the very best re
sults. It cured me of that continual dropptn
in my throat, and stuifed-np feeling. It has
also l)elped my mother, who has taken it for
run down state of health and kidney trouble. I
recommend Hood's Sarsaparilla to all as a good
medicine." Mas. S. D. Heath, Putnam, Conn.

"0S? WAJ TQ S0LP A JOB,
A f MfRtleiffck Stevedore Oatwlti tbo Foe
or the Sugar Trait.
tSTXCUX. TELEOmit TO TUB DISPATCH,
Philadelphia, December 5. Clans Bpreck
els, who came from the Pacific slope to Phila
delphia for the express purpose ot fighting the
Sugar Trust, engaged In his first conflict this
week, but if was not with the trust. To aid him
in his undertaking the sugar king bronght to
Philadelphia from Saq Francisco a few of his
best and most experienced workmen, and
among them a very competent steve
dore, on whom he expected to place
the entire responsibility of discharging
cargoes of sugar. The advent of tjie We stem
stevedores was regarded as an unwarranted
innovation by John O'Leary, a pugnacious and
indomitable little Irishman who has long en
joyed a practical monopoly of the business of
discharging vessels loaded with sugar. O'Leary
kept his weather ere open, and when the Isa
bella Balcome came op the river.TuefOav, wjth
a cargo of raw sugar from Natal, Brazil,
for .the Mew Bpreckels refinery. O'Leary
promptly boarded ber and asked the cap
tain for the privilege of discharging the
careo. "What will you charge T" asked the
captain. "Nothing." replied Mr. O'Leary. The
captain answered that according to the terms
of the charter the consignee had a right to
select the stevedore, provided the one So
selected would .perform the work at as lpw a
price as any other responsible stevedore, and
unless Mr. Bpreckels' man was as magnanimous
as the little Irishman, O'Leary should have the,
job.
In a short time Mr. Bpreckels' favorite ap
peared and asked for the task. He asked 4
cents per bas compensation, or 256 for the en
tire cargo of 6,100 bags. When told of O'Leary'a
offer, be said pe could not undertake to dis
charge the cargo for nothing, and
so O'Leary obtained the work. Mr.
Bpreckels was greatly agitated when he
beard of this new foe, and be stormed
about very much, as the King of the Sandwich
Islands might among bis own subjects. lo-day
he sent for O'Leary, and a long conferencevwas
held. The difficulty has not been settled, but
O'Leary insists that he mast be employed as
stevedore, and that he will ficht the battle out
on the same tactics until he wins. The work of
unloading the Isabella Balcome cost O'Leary
about $200.
