THE DUTY on PAPER.
REDUCTION RESISTED BY THE MANUFACTURERS
WHY THE PRICE OF PAPER HAS ADVANCED
PARTLY SPECULATIVE.

REDUCTION RESISTED BY THE MANUFACTURERS
WHY THE PRICE OF PAPER HAS ADVANCED
PARTLY SPECULATIVE.
IIY TELEGRAPH TO uIE TRIBUNE.I
WASHINGTON Feb. 11.-Neiiher the Fort nor any
other bill to reduce the duty printing paper will
be passed by the House OF Representatives until it
has overcome a determined resistance from the
paper manufacturers OF tins country.
Some of the representatives, OF the paper makers
are already in Washington and say that while ii is
true that printing paper has advanced 40 or 90 per
cent in price during six eight months, there are
ample reasons for this advance. The price of domes
nc coIored rags has advanced from Ia to 334 cents
per sound the latter being the present quotation.
Rags were never as low as they were SIX months
ago, when those OF the best quality could be pur-
chased at cent and half per pound. This price
was not high enough to induce people to save and
sell the rags to pay for their collection; cOnse-
ouently the stock became very low. and when the
business revival began. and paper was demanded by
all rcvvng industries, the paper dealers were with
out stocks and the price Immediately advanced in
this country and in Europe. Gable dispatches have
been received from European dealers within
week it is said ordering their agents in this coun
try not to sell another pound of rags as the price of
paper is rapidly advancing there
Eighteen months ago bleaching power could be
purchased at cent per pound, now it costs cents.
The same advance has taken place in the prices Of
soda-ash and of cosiic soda the principal chemicals
used In the manufacture Of paper. Bleaching
powder is on the free list, that change in duty
on that article is contemplated. Domestic alum
another important chemical used IN making paper
has not materially advanced. Labor has advanced
somewhat -,
The New-Engl gland mills gave notice last week
that they would advance wages 10 per cent OF ac-
count of the general increase OF prices. Tn" adj
vance in the prices of paper rs to a great extent
legitimate the makers say athong'. par OF u may
creased demand. ,. A., ,.
If Congress insists upon reducing the duty on
naner the makers will also insist that the tart on
iii the INGREDIENTS which enter INTO the manulac
tnre of paper and which are not named IN the Fort
or Ruekner bills. shall be practically placed up0I
the free list Ii is widely believed, however, that
tho advance is largely speculative. and the news
papers are sure 10 demand a reduction OF duty IN
tones that Congress will b. sure to hear, II the
naper makers OveTdo their present game.

TYPOGRAPHY HIMSELF
fBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TR1BUNE.l
WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.-There is a genuine sensa
ton in the city to-day. II grows out of letter
written by Senator Gordon to Mr. Stephens, partly
apologize and partly defensive, in regard to the
acrimonious debate i'll the Census Committee last
Friday
Senator Gordon's attack in that committee
on the gentleman nominated TO be cen
sns supervisor in Georgia was based
mainly upon the ground of the illiteracy
and bad photography of Mr.. Simmons The Senator
was also extremely bitter in regard to the private
character of this applicant. Mr.. Simmons in his
letter of application to the President spelled EX-
cellency" with one al" The Senator discussed this
matter to its furthest limit. He thought that an ap-
pcant who could leave out letter in
such an application deserved to he rejected. The
Senator rose to the height of the argument when he
concluded his harangue against the bad spelling
and worse punctuation of Mr. Simmons.
In this letter TO Mr. Stephens the Senator puts
two "Ps" to Marshal" in abiding TO Marshal
Smythe and be spells controversy" with an
extra e,' viz, CONTROVERSY"
Mr. Simmons never attended college Dut
he has sense enough to preach a good sermon
TO very Intelligent people Senator Gordon
was a college graduate and has served
seven years in the United States Senate.
The opinion Is held generally that 1t would be a
close contest If the Senator and the supervisor
should appear against each other IN spelling match.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.-ln the executive session
to-day the Senate rejected the entire list of Super
yisors of the Census for the State of Ohio eight in
number. The ground upon which the action was
taken was set forth by Senator Pendcton in an ear
nest but courteous and careful speech In effect,
he said, that while twelve out of the twenty dis
tricts Of that State represented IN Congress by
Democrats it was not just for the President to
send to the Senate the names of eight Republicans
for Supervisors and no Democrats. The division on
the question Of confirmation was upon party lines.
There being no Republican Senator ron ONO 10

treated with indifference by the Republicans.
