ARTICLES IX THE INCREASE Carpet and Wools Will Be Restored to the Mckinley Kates Sugar Sehedole Alone Exempted-Tbe Bond Bill. Washington, Dec. 24. "Let the coun try understand," said a leading Re publican member or the ways and means committee to a United Press reporter today, "that the bill we shall present to tbe house on Thursday is a pure revenue measure, hurriedly pre pared to meet any exigency in our na tional finances and in response to the president's plea that some measure fur relief must be accorded by congress. There has been no attempt at tariff re vision. Our measure Is purely a reve nue measure. The corectness of this declaration was shown by the action of the committee today In declining to hear Judge William Lawrence, of Ohio, president of the National Wool Grow ers' association, who desired to be heard in support . of a higher rate on wool than that previously agreed upon. Repeated applications have been made to the committee In Its collective and In dividual capacity, from eastern manu facturers who have deprecated uarty action In the preparation of the bill, that a postponement in its preparations be hadluntll their arguments could be presented. To all Untie applications the committee have turned a deaf ear and the bill will have the unusual dis tinction of being presented to the house as the sole result of the committee's labor uninfluenced by outside consid erations. At this afternoon's session of the Re publican members of the committee several changes were made in the rates agreed upon yesterday. When an ad journment was had at 6 o'clock the irame work of the bill had been com pleted and nothing remained but to put It In proper form. At yesterday's met ing It was decided that farm products including live Btock should enjoy a 25 per cent, horizontal increase over the present law, because of the ruinous competition which the granger element aiong tne northern frontier claimed to suffer from their Canadian neighbors across the line. This led some of the eastern members today to ask a corres ponding Increase on manufactures of Iron and steel. This precipitated a spirited discussion In which the com mitee divided practically on geographi cal lines, the western men strongly op posing a higher rate than 15 per cent. After some debate an agreement was reached that the agricultural schedule should be placed In the same category as the other schedules namely, at a 15 per cent, horizontal increase. This was the only serious difference of the day and It was speedily settled. Sugar Alnno Kxcmptcd. The sugar schedule alone Is exempted from change. It was not deemed Inex pedient to Include sugar in the horizon tal Increase owing to the embarrass ments which might arise from increas ing the differential duty on refined sugars. The most Important change made at today's session was that relating to carpet wools, which. In the new bill, will be restored to the McKlnlcy rate. On all wools the duty as stated In the 1'nlted Press dispatches last night will be sixty per cent, of the McKinley law with the compensatory duty on the manufactured product also sixty per cent, of the previous law. The du- on all grades of lumber will be placed nt sixty per cent, of the McKinley law. The bond bill was completed today and will be sent tonight to the government printing office. Both It and the reve nue bill will be laid before the full com mittee at 11 o'clock tomorrow morning. When the committee adjourns the Democratic members will hold a secret session, at which they will decide up on the policy to be pursued by them when the two measures are called no in the house. Both bills, as has been pre viously reported, will be nresented to the house on Thursday. The commit tee on rules will report and pass through the house a resolution setting aside Thursday for consideration of the tariff bill and Friday for the bond measure. It may be said In passing that this latter bill is understood to have the ap proval of Secretary Carlisle and conse. quently of the president as well. The bond bill Is simple in its details. It provides for the issuance of bonds In terest and principal payable in coin and redeemable at the option of the government at the end of five years. It changes the rate of Interest in the act of 1875 under which bonds are now Issued to 3 per cent, which is also the rate of Interest that the 150.000.000 conn pon certificates of Indebtedness, which will be used only to meet the deficit In the treasury will also bear. The pro vision is also made In the bond bill re Carding; the legal tender notes. The bill by simply separating the redemn. tlon fund from the general assets of the treasury puts it In the power of the secretary or the treasury temporarily to Isolate the legal tenders when re deemed. The two bills will go Into effect upon their passage and remain In operation until August l. ishs. HALLSTEAD. Joseph Wesley and wife are visiting friends in the Electric city. Jim Burdick, the noted evangelist, gave two Interesting talks In this place on Monday.

Brown, superintendent of the Bureau of Railways, In his report for 1895, says the total cost of railway equipment, as ascertained from the data reported. Is I1S8.58d.811. 38. For the year 1894 It was 8176.432.962.58: 181)3. 1174,990,- 345.18; 1892, $163,738,314.34; lS'Jl. $169,285.- 199.73. The reports for the year lust closed Indicate that the total cost of equlpment,$183,685,8U.38.lncludes equip ment now in use as folows: ,760 loco motives, 6,787 cars in passenger service, 329.606 cars in freight service and 11,243 cars in the service of the railways for maintenance, construction, etc. In ad dition to these there are in the fast freight service, 29,426 cars. There are also 77,783 leased cars. Major Brown says: "The number of cars given here does not Include those in use on the allways owned by private shippers or by corporations or transportation com panies other than common carriers. While the number of such cars Is large and probably increasing in a greater percentage than the cars belonging to the common carriers, no statistics is compiled by the inter-state commerce commission to determine the number of them in use in the United States, nor is it possible to determine what percent age of the tonnage Is carried in such cars, or what Inroad the owners of such cara make upon the transportation in terests, which it would seem properly belong to the common carriers, or. In deed, to ascertain how far the proper revenues of the common carriers are di verted to the pockets of the owners or these cars. Certain it Is that the use of shippers' cars and the cara of cor- uoratlons, firms and individuals, omer than common carriers, furnishes tne most prollilic source of discrimination in the transportation problem that now ImDerils so many business enterprises. The scheme has fastened itself upon the common carriers and deprives them ot a revenue to which In all fairness they are entitled, and, besides, it has for years carried disaster to many nrms. corporations and individuals, not par ties to the scheme. At a recent na tional convention of railway commis sioners a representative from the de partment of internal an airs read a pa tter on this subject, which is here In serted. One has only to make a careful study of this subject to be convinced that the scheme is a moBt pernicious one. and sound public policy anu fair ness to all demand either Its auolsli ment or the most rigid regulation and supervision." "One of the Indications of improve ment In the Northwest is In regard to immigration," says President J. M. Hill, of the Great Northern. "Eight years ago we were getting 40,000 inquir ies a month. They dropped to 500 a month, and now number 5.000 to 6.000 a month, tlur land grant Is about sold and we shall not have the means to send the money which we have spent In the past to induce immigration. At the same time, we shall be glad to co-operate In getting settlers Into this country. The development has been wonderful. As lute as 1882. I drove from me inter national boundary to what Is now Graf ton, and did not see a vestige or settle ment. Yet there today are counties that do not owe a dollar and have an assess ed valuation of millions or dollars, in 1S78. the old St. Paul and memo rail road carried 2.000,000 bushels of wheat. Judge of the growth when I tell you that or tne present crop me urrai Northern Railway will carry 65.000,000 bushels of wheat, which is nearly three times as much as will be marketed in Chicago this year by all the roads run ning into that city, it amounts to over 15 per cent, of all the wheat raised In the United States." INDUSTRIAL. The whole number of mine accidents In Pennsylvania from November, 1895, to December, 1895, was the astonishing total of 1.543. of which 391 were fatal and 515 orphans.
