Debate on the Centennial bill WAS contin-
ued by Messrs. Jones, Holman and Others.
Mr.. Holman said he had a letter from "A
Philadelphia gentleman, speaking OF the
centennial board as a ring and saving tha
the passage OF the bill would damage rather
than help the exhibition. This was empIat
ically denounced as false by Messrs Randall
and Kelley, OF Philadelphia, who declared
that purer set OF men than the Centennial
hoard never managed any enterprise. Mr.
Hopkins, who has the bill In charge, an
nounced that he would call the previous
question on Tuesday, at 3 O'Clock.
Mr.. Phelps Conn declined further service

cal struggle is likely to take place at any

Tho high tariff men with Pig Iron KEEL
ley at their head, are continually chant
ing the refrain OF protection to American
industry. 1t is not the capitalist or the
opulent manufacturer or corporation
who or which need protection, st is
American industry, the workman, the
arti6cer whom they wish to protect.
They say that under the effete despot-
ism Of Europe the workers are 80 many
serfs who are obliged to accept whatever
pittanos their imperious task-masters
may choose to allow them. Not SO the
American laborer. He cannot live on
the wretched wages paid to the European
laborers and artisans. Consequently in
order to enable the manufacturers to pay
this liberal rate of remuneration they
must be protected by high tariff from
the products Of European manufacturers.
That 10 the theory and 1t sounds very
we'll and looks very reasonable and very
patriotic. Let us see what ia the prac-
tice. The other day from the East came
the tidings that large number Of China
men had arrived in New Jersey for the
purpose OF displacing like number OF
white workers. The daily wages of the
Chinamsn was seventy cents, that OF
the white laborer would be from 81, 90 to
$500. That is the way that the manu-
facturers with Pig Iron Kelley as theil
exponent protect the American work.
man. They first under this speciouf
pretext procure the enactment of laws
laying prohibitory duties on the import
alton OF foreign industrial products and
then they send the American laborel
packing and import hordes of heather
slaves to do their work. Thus the EN-
ployers grow rich at the expense OF thu
whole country. while the American work

high tariff system as it is at prssen

jay Cooke & Co. put S25, 900 into the pool,
and each of the others 5000. Subse-
ouently there was an assessment all around
of 81 900. making a total sum of $50, 600.
Mr.. Kilbourne refused to tell who were
any of the five members IN the pool. The
firm of Kilbourne IL Lalta, real estate men,
did business for the pool, but in buying
and selling real estate for the pool, the
names OF the real buyers and sellers did
not appear. In the records the name of

until this afternoon to make up his mind
