Opposed 20 Cotton Machinery Duty
-ReducriOn.

Washington, March 25.--Robert Patterson,
of Philadelphia, the largest owner of woelcn
and cotton mills in the United States, hns
written letter to Representative Kelly, Of
the House Ways and Means committee,
strongly opposing the proposed reduction of
duties on cotton machinery. Such n
measure, he says, would cause great and per-
manent disaster to American machine works
and to- cotton manufacturers themselves.
The only persons benefited would be the
English manufacturers of textile machinery,
who, as soon as they had crushed out Ameri-
can competition, would ask what prices they
pleased Furthermore, he adds, American
machinery is much better than tho English
which would then take place. A reduction
is advocated, he says, bya representative of
Georgia, but no State in the Union is more
interested than Georgia in the protection of
American machinery and American indus
tries Of all kinds. Next to Georgia
comes Alabama and Tennessee, with
cotton, iron ore and coal in
greatest abundance, and boundless water
power. The child is born, he says, who will
see these three great states competing with
Pennsylvania, and tho manufactures and
their congressman the most ardent defenders
of home industry.

clothing was lost by the clothing giving

Leslie's coat was found copy of Long
fellows poems. James Christie's body
was among those that were recovered.
He was ploughman, and left his work
on the Thursday before the accident to
attend the funeral of his father at Down
field by Cettle, Fifeshire. His employer
had advised him to remain with his
mother over Sunday and to return ON
Monday, but unfortunately the plough
man in his anxiety to resume his work,
travelled on Sunday to Ladibank, where
he joined the train. Two letters were
found in his pockets, in one of which,
written apparently to his sweetheart, and
which he had not had time to post, he
mentioned that he had been attending
the funeral of his father.

A SHORT time ago at Lancaster, Pennsylva-
mia, defendant in liquor case was discharged,
whereupon the IateIIigence,, published in that
city, charged that the acquittal was procured
by prostitution of justice. In consequence of
this, Judge Patterson, has cited the editors,
Messrs. Steinman and Hensel, both of whom
are lawyers, to show cause why they should not
be disbarred. They claim that they are not re-
sponsible before the court as lawyers for what
they may do as editors. 1t is thought Judge
Patterson, knowing they could not be convicted
of libel, has taken this method to wreak palry
revenge upon the men who dared to question
the uprightness of his Judgment.

The rapid waste of the timber resources of
Canada has begun to present itself in such
shape as to demand serious attention. The re-
turns made on this subject under direction of the
British government, by consuls and imperial
officers to the several colonies, caused alarm
The clearing system by new settlers has
given merciless sway to the ak, and the idea that
fresh forests should ever be needed OF provided
for has been the farthest from their minds
Forest fires, too, have been nearly as destructive
as the improvidence of lumber merchants,
whose sole aim has been an immediate return
for their investments. e. remedy for the EVIL is
suggested by holding out prizes in land or other
wise to those who shall plant the denuded tracts
with trees, thus laying the foundation for future
forests. The idea Is an excellent one, and in
view of the onward march of settlers in the
United States the consequent destruction of
forests should not be lost sight of.

The thrift of the nations of Europe, as ex-
emplifed by their savings deposited in the banks
provided to receive them, Is illustrated in an
interesting series of figures prepared by a
French statistician M. de Molarce The figures
compare the years 1874 and 1873, and show that
in that period the deposits throughout Europe
rose from 81, 400,000,000 to 81, 900, 600, O00 an
increase of thirty-tive per cent. In the United
Kingdom the largest amount deposited in say
ings banks is to be found-namely, 1910. OOO.-
900. Prussia ranks next with $685., 200, 900, and
Austria is close up as third with 1926, 900, 600.
The French working classes, notwithstanding
their sacrifices for the war, raised their deposits
in the four years in question from $115, OOO, coo
to 5000, 900, an increase of SO per cent;
while the increase saved by their Prussian foes,
although they had all the war indemnity in
their pockets was only 30 per cent. This is al
most the lowest ratio of progress in Europe, as
Italy's deposits grew by As per cent, and those
of Austria multiplied themselves nearly five
fold. In the United Kingdom the advance DUR
ing these four years was only Is per cent. The
most striking feature in this return is the
progress made by Austria and France Evident
Iy there is spirit of industry and economy
abroad, which, if it was not thwalted by the
military establishments, the conscriptions and
the wars that press SO heavily upon Europe,
would accomplish wonderful things for the
benefit of humanity.

Am Wp.norfant Seizure.

The United States government, through the
collector of internal revenue at Philadelphia,
Pa, on the Goth, seized upon property of the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad company,
for claims amounting to nearly half million
dollars. The company in 1878, from time to
time, issued scrip to pay its employees and Off
GERS the certificates payable with interest at a
fixed per cent. ranging from four to six months.
They also contained provision by which before
maturity they could be paid to the railroad for
debts due or for other purposes. Under the
revenue law, tax of ten per centum is levied
ON notes issued for circulation by corporations,
and the government having made demand on
the Philadelphia and Reading company for
S16S,OOO the tax upon 1850, 600 of scrip is
sued. which the corporation refused, the seizure
was made as above. Nearly five million in scrip
has been issued by the company, SO that the
governments claim will ultimately amount to

AMERICAN travellers abroad have often Won
dered that the English railroads did not adopt
the American system of checking baggage, both
for their own protection and for the convenience
of their passengers. The London and North
western company, the great line between Lon
don and Liverpool, has recently sent over to the
Central Vermont for a specimen set of its checks
ana checking Facilities, and these have been for
warded to the English road. Edward NJ.
Thompson, of Montpelier, an agent of the road,
has also gone over to instruct the English rail
road officials in the practical working of the
American system.
