Ml
Year's
CHANGES IN THE TARIFF
House Bill Kill Be a Pure Revnue1
Measure.
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.

RAILROAD NOTES.
Major I. B. 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."
