WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D, c., Nov. 8, 1878,


The Southern representatives who have
been dreaming OF a southern line Of railway
to the Pacific and at consequent revival of in
dustry, through the promised extension east
ward of the Southern Pacific of California are
much excited by the latest trick of the Cen
tral Southern Pacific ring which has hlhed
teams with Jay Gould's Kansas road ffor ~
very purpose of defeating any Southern road.
1t is grand move of the railroad magnates
to defeat all competition in transcontinental
trade, and to strengthen their hands in he
fight against the Government in the effort to
check its corrupt expressions The North is
equally interested with the South in the three
movements, since it. also discovered that the
Central Pacific Mail Steamship line, the whole
coast steamship trade and the entire r. r.
system of California, and has bound the east
tern merchants as well the Government hand
and foot. Congress will be obliged to take
notice Of immence istrides of this monstron,
monopoly which bids fair to misgovern this
country if it is not soon checked by conpeti-
tion or law
The yexed question of putting the Indians
under control of the War Department will be
discussed at the coming session of Congress,
as the Commission appointed to consider tho
subject will have report ready early in De-
cember. The report of the Commission, it is
understood, will be adverse to the proposed
change.
Two strong reasons why the change
should be made are found in the expected
reduction of expenses and the necessity Of
taking from the unmanageable Interior De-
partment of the portion of its authority and
responsibility. Secretary Schurz says that in
most Important matters, from his inability to
examine them thoughly, he is obliged to trust
| to his Bureau Officer. If the Indian Bureau
cannot be taken away the Patent or Pension
Bureau should. The great frauds of the time
have been perpetrated in the Interior De-
partment, presumably because the Secretary
could not give personal attention TO all the
multlfarious duties Of his place.

Congress Yesterday.

In the United States Senate, yesterday,
House bill to prevent depredations upon
property in the District ofColumbia was
passed. Mr.. voorhees, offered resolu-
tion directing the pension committee to
report bill granting pensions to the SOL
diers of the war 1872, their widows and
orphans, and said he would call it up on
the 30th inst. The bill to repeal the
bankrupt act was taken up and advocated
by Mr.W. Creery. Mr.. Matthews offered as
substitute his own bill to establish a
uniform law on the subject of bankrupt
cy, and spoke in its favor.
In the House, Mr.. Potter introduced a
joint aesolutlOn proposing constitution
al amendment, which provides that after
1880 there will be but one session OF
Congress In every two years, unless con-
vened by the President. The pension
appropriation bill, which appropriRtes
$29, ,2S6,574, was taken up and debated,

From the ". Y. Herald.
THE NEW TARIFF BILL.

The debate on this important measure
opened yesterday with the delivery of Mr..
Woods speech, and is likely to continue
for the ensuing two weeks. The opposi-
tion 10 the bill, except in details which
may be amended, win come chiefly from
the advocates of protection, although the
protected interests have but little rea-
son for dissatisfaction with this bill. 1t is
computed by experts that the proposed
tari II will yield ten millions more of reve-
nue. than was collected last year under
the present sarif. The process of calcu-
lation Is so simple that anybody can un-
derstand 1t. The quantities of every de-
scription of goods on which the new
duties are to be laid are accurately record
ed year by year by the customs officers.
The committee, AZ the basis ofther labors,
ascertained the average amount of impor-
tations of each article for eight years
taking the last four years of business de-
preston and the preceding four years of
flush activity. No fairer mode of estima-
ting the average of future importations
could have been adopted, and on this
basis the new tariff will yield revenue of
ten million dollars in excess of that col
lected from customs during the last fiscal
year. The estimated revenue from Gus
toms under the new tariff il one hundred
and forty-one million dollars per annum,
and this large sum will necessarily operate
as protection to American productions
of the same kinds as those on which the
duties are laid.
Aside from its bearing on the vexed
question of protection the new tariff has
conspicuous merits, respecting which
there can be no candid difference of opin-
ion. 1t will simplify the business of the
custom houses and diminish the expense
of collecting the revenue. The mere
simplification of the system would alone
be great benefit. In fifteen years, dating
from 1861, not less than one hundred and
eight different laws were passed relating
TO the tari fl and the collection of duties.
This bewildering mass Of legislation has
SO confused the subject and has raised so
many doubtful questions and has called
for such multitude Of revenue decisions
that only experts of long experience can
understand the existing laws. To sweep
away this mass Of confusion and substi-
tute one clear, intelligible law which
every merchant can interpret for himself
without the aid of a lawyer or an expert
would be work well worth doing even
if the main provisions of the present
tariff were left unchanged.
There are other changes proposed in
this bill which commend themselves to
common sense. 1t will abolish the per-
picking double duties or compound duties
which run through our present cumbrous
tariff

TOBACCO 2 TO 8 CENTS A POUND.
In place of the old-fashioned screw
press, Chas. Breneiser a. Do, use newly
patented press in packing leaf tobacco,
which occupies less room and can be
worked with greater rapidity and ease.
1t consists of a beam, chain, two levers
and a ratchet.
While examining the new press, an
Eagle reporter asked Henry ID. Brenei-
ser, of the firm, respecting the tobacco
market, and he said, "Leaf tobacco is a
drug in the market this spring Last
year before this time all the tobacco was
already bought up from the raisers, while
this spring nearly the whole crop Is still
ON the hands of the farmers who raised
it,"
Chow do the present prices compare
with those of last year ?" "Last spring
25 to 80 cents were paid, while this spring
we bought some 90 cases of about 400
pounds each at 2 to 8 cents a pound. A
Californian, who bought quite early, and
did not know anything about the Penn
selvania tobacco market, paid 20 cents a
pound this spring for Lancaster county
tobacco. We have some Pennsylvania
leaf of '73 and "a, which is as fine as silk,
and equal to Havana for wrappers, and
which we would not sell for less than 25
to 40 cents a pound. Pennsylvania leaf
is darker than Connecticut, and the best
quality of Pennsylvania is considered
equal to Havana cigars, Havana binders
and filters being used"
Chow many cigars have you on hand
at this time :" "Between 100000 and
800, ,000."
care as many cigars smoked as there
were few years ago ?" 30, yes only
as a general thing smokers buy cheaper
cigars. Instead of smoking cent ci-
gars, as formerly, many of them procure
two cigars for 8 cents, or one for two
cents. Cigars that are sold at the price
of two for 3 cents are sold for 8 cents
singly."
"How many cigars do some people
smoke in day." al know one man
who smokes as many as 10 in a day and
uses the pipe beside. Some people have
cigars in their mouths nearly all the
time, while others use only one or two
cigars in day."-Reading Eagle.

The Camden Murderer Wants
to Poison his Accusor.

CAMDEN, N. j., April 1O.-George w.
Ellis, this morning made affidavit before
master In chaneery that while serving
out q sentence of sixty days in the jail
here he was employed by the keeper in
taking meals to some of the prisoners;
that Hunter, who is charged with the
murder of John NJ. Armstrong, approach
ed him and offered him 500 to put
strychnine in the food of the man
Grahame, who recently confessed that
he was employed by Hunter to murder
Armstrong, and who is now in Jail
awaiting trial. The prison officials say
they have known of the above story for
some time, but have quietly awaited
further developments.
1t is stated that the character of the
man Ellis is not very good. Mr.. Scovel,
of counsel for Hunter states that instead
of Hunter making proposition to Ellis
to poison Grahame for 500, that Ellis
made the proposition to Hunter to get
rid of Grahame for 5000.
