HOOP IRON.
An Important Decision.

An Important Decision.
Special Dispatch to the eyister.
W.saINGroN, December II.
Assistant Secretary French to-day
rendered decision relative to the inn
portation OF hoop iron cut to lengths
which will create something Of q stir
among the manufacturers OF hoop iron
in the United States. 1t will be remem-
bered that last spring Secretary Sher-
man made decision changing the rate
of duty on this class OF iron from 35 per
cent AL valorem to a specific rate OF =!
cents per pound. This decision was di-
Iectly in the inter- st OF tie American
manufacture rs, AMI was received with
much satisfaction. The iecis:on o; As
sistant Secretary French to-day replaces
the duty at b per cent ad yalorem on
al hoop iron cut to lengths, having an
eye Gu, at one end and button affixed
to the other, or what is commercially
known as cotton ties"
1t is now in order fos Pennsylvania 10
again assert herself on this question 50
vital TO her interests.
No New Purchases Till January.
Secretary Sherman said that lie had
encouragement In gathering in the b
per cent. bonds OF 1851. Some SIS, Geo.
coo of them are due on the last Of this
month, and he saws the surplus reve-
nues are coming IN last enough 10 pay
them oil. He expressed some surprise
and considerable qualification that they
are coming in very rapidly now. and
saws there will be very lew to redeem
when all are due. lie offered l02.S1l
for them, and holders are anxious for
that premium. He SAYS he will not buy
anv OF the lower rate bonds till he gets
rid OF these batch OF SKIES. This il
fair and square statementof interest to
all financial and commercial centres.
Reduction OF Letter Postage.
Mr.. Willis introduced bill in the
House yesterday 10 reduce the rate OF
postage on letters between different
points in the United States from three
cents to two cents each. Senator Blaine
il understood To be in favor OF the prop
osition. and will advocate 1t when 1t
comes before the Senate. 1t is to'erably
safe to predict that there will be no re-
duciion in the rates OF letter postage
until the Postotlice department becomes
seli-sustainiBg. This long-wished-ior
event. it is predicted, will arrive in the
course oi about three wears. Last year
the expenditures of the department
were over 3, 900. 900 in excess vi the re-
ceipts. To reduce the rate OF postage ON
ordinary letters one cent would not add
materially 20 the bulk OF correspondence.
