FREE TRADE WITH UNITED STATES


HAVANA, June 3.-Advices to the 18th
Of May have been received from San Do
mingo. Great excitement prevailed in the
northern provinces because Of the increase
Of the duty on tobacco in Germany, which
it is feared will be very heavy. Germany
is the sole market OF San Domingo for to-
bacco. All transactions have been stop.
ped and a serious crisis is expected. In
consequence OF this state OF affairs Presi-
dent Guillermo has submitted to Congress
a proposition To establish FREQ trade with
the United States. The plan proposes the
admission into San Domingo, duty free, OF
all American produce, provided the Uni.
ted States grants the same privilege to San
Domingo produce. The project was very
popular, though 1t was feared the United
States would refuse to enter into the agree.
ment. The Congress was discussing the
proposal, and II approved it was intended
to dispatch special envoy to Washington.

ARBITRATION NO GO.

Hopes of n short Suspension.

PlrrspuRaII, June 8.

PirrsBURGH, June3.
According to agreement the boilers
held a meeting this afternoon at Emerald
Hall, which continued in session from
three to six o'clock, and after full dis.
cussion of the proposition to arbitrate
their differences with the iron masters
they voted to reject the proposition. They
also discharged their committee on the
ground that there was no need for further
conference. This action on their part is
interpreted as meaning that their ultima.
tum is the signingo the scale or stay out.
This result was not entirely unexpected,
but it was hoped that possibly an arbitra.
ton might be agreed upon and lock out
prevented. 1t is hard now to tell what
shape the difficulty will assume. The pre-.
ponderance OF opinion seems to be that
the strike will not be OF long duration, al.
though both sides talk firm and manifest
no signs OF giving in. H.

al and unparalleled, and that lis revulsion
explains In great part the disasters OF
this country and England. Our emissions
OF legal tender notes drove more than 200
millions Of coin abroad, and with It our
whole gold and silver product. This was
the way that the printing Of money in.
creased the quantity Of It. 1t inflated
the home price Of productions so that
1t was cheaper 10 buy in Europe than at
home even with a high tariff oprotect us.
It made this country great market to sell
In and poor one to buy in. Our outgo-
ing stream Of silver and gold, and then
our bonds, started an initiation in England
and great activity in all her industries. A
wonderful impetus WAS given 10 her ship.
ping and shipbuilding interests, and the
revolution from wood to iron gave
great stimulus to the iron business.
Our imports from Europe ran up
from 2O5 millions in 1856? to 45j millions
in 1866, and TO oil millions in 1871, and in
1872 to $40 millions. This was because
We had over 100 millions Of paper money
atloat, and nearly 1000 millions Of bonds,
and no gold and silver, and were doing a
smashing credit business. Our exports
from England were on an immense scale
and she hourishGd at our expense. But
our collapse proved to he her collapse
also, for her exports TO this country fell
from 2O36SO,OOO in 1872 to 100000 in
1877, and this fact explains her present
stagnation.
The stagnation on the continent Of Eu.
rope is TO be explained in the same way
by the Franco.G German war. The i'm
mense sums paid to Germany caused a |
great initiation there and subsequent dis
astrous collapse.
We have not space to go into detail to
show how natural and how explainable
have been tho recent difficulties between
labor and capital growing out Of the pre-
sent stagnation OF trade. The ioolislIness
Of finance is in large part responsible for
them, and we must, both in this country
and in Europe. pay the penalty until we
have learned to avoid the temptations to

Misrepresentation u Permanent EVIL?
There are those who hold that there is a
ltessary and irrepressible conflict be-
iFeen labor and capital. They point to
tie fact that it has been going on for ages
ndthat at this time it is seemingly more
intense and irreconcilable than ever be.
brc They assume that fair division Of
ProiitS between the two can never be es-
ublished.
We observe that the Hon. Hugh Nc
CulIoch, in a late lecture at Harvard, ex.
presses the opinion that the great evit' oi
Oartime is overproduction, and that this
tyihas arisen from the rapid increase Of
hbor saving machinery. He points to the
hctthat the civilized world is now suffer.
Ing from stagnation, caused, as he says, by
greater ability to produce than to consume,
Mr. McCuloCh, as 1t seems to US, stops
short Of large view OF his subject, Eu'
mpe and America are suffering from
H1guation, no doubt, but it is only little
Vhile since millions of>people in China,
where there is really no machinery worthy
Otthe name, were starving to death. Not
that ioOd was unobtainable In the coun-
Try, but simply because there were no fa'
ciljtes for transporting and distributing II
as between the iamished sections and
those where there was an abundance. In
China all work is done by hand. Men
and women arc tho machines in that
country, They are the pack horses-the
common carriers and hence millions o.
them ate always exposed to calamity
when a famine occurs in their immedi'
aie sections Of the Empire.
Weread in this mornings news Of peo

CShmere-a fertile country OF Hindostar

and where wheat, barley, mlllet and maiz,

Civilization has not only increase
wealth but distributed It far more equal

BELLAIRE LocAlS.-The School Board,
ut n meeting Monday evening, decided to
stop the schools at the end OF this week,
except the High School, which will con.
tinue a week longer to prepare for the
Commencement.
The management OF the schools from
now forward will probably he run on a
different plan from that which has pre-.
vailed until now, and under which Bel.
laire's schools have become equal to any
in the country.
A new block OF rooms has been opened
in Barnard's coal mines. 1t is under
Nelson's hill, and the great pressure on
the coal is probably tho cause OF its great
hardness. The. coal now being taken out
is harder than the general run. The vein
is about six feet thick.
DR.. Wright has put up his sign in San
der's building, on Belmont street.
There seems TO be difference OF opin-
ion among the Republicans here about
whether to scratch 0gleyee for State Au.
ditOr. On one side it Is said that he took
the side Of Bellaire against St. Clairsyille
simply because he had TO take one side or
the other, and that st. Clairsville Demo
Gratis will not vote for him. On the other
hand, 1t is said that he took the side OF st,
Clairsville because he thought by so doing
he would get the most Republican votes
10 this county, were he nominated, and
that he must be scratched II Bellaire ex-
poets to hold the political whip over Ross
Alexander & Co. 1t does not make much
difference as far as the result in the State
is concerned, for the Republicans expect
to have too large majority on the whole
ticket for q few thousand votes to make
any difference.

MATT carpenters Health BFOken Down.
CHICAGO, June2.-COrrespondenc from
Milwaukee says the announcement that
Senator Carpenter has been advised by
his physician to go to Florida for his health
was genuine surprise to his friends in
that city. Few supposed him to be other
than in the best Of health and spirits. The
writer interviewed personal friend of the
Senator, and was enlightened by the fol.
lowing statement: 81 tell you no man can
smoke twenty Havana cigars day and
keep up the practice without encounter
ing certain death. Itis hazardous thing
to do, and Matt Carpenter is doing it. You
observe the consequence, Matt is a slave
to tobacco and its killing him slowly but
surely. He has wasted SO that his limbs
have become emaciated to the semblance
Of pipe stems. They call it rheumatism,
but it is tobacco and nothing else that has
wasted him away to this extent, and it
will continue its work until death steps in
and claims another victim"
