thrift RATES CRITICISED.
Some Statements about silks, snusares, Co.
ment, Starch, Spirits, statuary, &c.

Before the Tariff Commissioners in Long
Branch yesterday William Kent Assistant
Appraiser in the New York Custom House in
the silk department. said that in his judgment
the silk manufacturers Of this country we're on
an extremely firm foundation. They were all
making money. Many of them had become
wealthy, and many of them very wealthy. He
thought that the duty on silk goods might be
reduced. He would have sufficient protection
given. however. to the manufacture of silk
mixed goods which had been recently started
in this country.
A. c. Babson of this city wrote to have Port
land cement put on the free list 1t is made
from chalk and clay. and there are no
known deposits of chalk in this country; that
there is no actual Portland cement made here.
and that there is but one American manufac-
turer VINO makes a cement in any way ap-
preaching il, but that it is. inferior.
MIR. David {. SturEeS of the Appraisers de-
partment of the New York Custom House rec
onmended uniformity i'll the rate of duties rs
lar rs practicable. Peas and beans. for in
stance. were taxed as provisions. and also as
seeds: so olive oil. when salad was taxed at
one rate ana i when not salad at another. The
II inc tenths of the olive oil consumed here was
simply cotton seed Oil. Much of it was vile
stun. bearing about the, same relation to olive
oil "a oleomarsarine does to butter. As to
statqary. Mr.; Sturees recommended that the
from the statute Tho q department had de- del
cded that copy from IA masterpiece of Phidias
or PraNitcles. executed by Powers or any
other sculptor, should not be entitled to

that the discrimination be abolished As to

hol to bring them above proof. He would rec

Mr.. Kelly Doesn't Know Whether II will DO

SARATOGA, Aug. 1.-THE calling OF the
Autobiography State Convention to be held in
Saratoga on Sept 10, awakened much curiosity
as to what would be the attitude of Tammany
toward this Convention. THE SUN reporter
called upon Mr.. Kelly this afternoon.
will Tammany send delegates to the Anti
Monopoly State Convention to be held in Sara

Tammany." said Mr.. Kelly. is not a mem
Dor of the Anti Monopoly League. and / have
not present means of knowing what action it
will take in reference to the Convention of that
organization. Ameeting of our committee will
be held in New York about the 29th inst, at
which time the acton of Tammany with refer
ence to the Democratic State Convention will
also be pretty clearly defined"
Beporter-But what vii be the probable atti-
tude of Tammany toward the Democratic State
Convention?
Mr.. Koy-It will be quite impossible to an
swcr that question until after the meeting of
our committee on say the Goth inst. While
Tammany is not a member of the Anti Mo-
nopoly League. it Is in full sympathy with the
cause Of the masses Of the people, as against
the whole spirit OF monopoly which has be-
come so discriminating and intolcrant. and
such corrupt and corruptng element in our
politics, and in the Legislation both of the State
and of the general Government 1t belongs
properly to the Democracy to encourage this
anti-monopoly movement. and its best policy
in my Judgment, will be to make it one Of the
progressive principles Of the party.
>, Reporter-lf rammany is not admitted to the
Democratic State Convention. will it support
the, nominees Of the party?
Mr.. Kely-That depends Tammanyhas not
sue in any event. She has no candidates to rec
ommend for nomination. and. If j understand
the views Of my, associates, l am thoroughly
convinced they don't propose to advocate the
claims of any candidate

ANOTHER BOSTON MYSTERY.
The Hcadlcas Body of a Man Found Hanging
by the Knees Under u Bridge.

Boston, Aug. 1.-THE headless body of a
man. clad only in blue flannel drawers and
high-top boots. was found this morning. by
man rowing under the draw of the New York
and New England Railroad. hanging by the
knees from one of the string pieces under the
track. The man was about six feet in height
and must have weighed fully 200 pounds. The
head, which was missing. had been severed
from the trunk by some sharp instrument, as
the cut was a clean one. without ragged
edges. Five knife wounds were found on
the back and breast, which looked as
though made with double-edgcd weapon.
The body was taken to the Morgue. but
thing was discovered that could lead to the
mans identity. The body had not been in the
water more than forty eight hours. The theory
has been advanced that the mans head was
severed by Il railroad train: but if so. how did
the body come underneath the plankng of the
centre of the track. the bridge being planked
overs its entire width The body could not
have been washed upon the stringer by the
tide, rs il il had been thrown or had fallen Off
the bridge it must have sunk. and would not
have come to the surface for four or five days
from present appearances the man was MUIR
dered and the body placed where it was found
his head being cut of to prevent Identification.
The police are mystiiled. as no one can be
found who saw the man about the bridge, or
who heard any disturbance there.

STOPPED BY THE FLESHLY ARM
a Salvation Army Captain Locked Up for
Going to Battle without Permit.

A score of men in the uniform of the "Sal-
walton Army" appealed to Inspector Dilks and
Justice Power ut Police Headquarters last
evening in behalf Of the Rev. Capt T., Hill who
had been locked up in the Charles
street police station ON n charge of dis
orderly conduct. Several women also Of
the army waited anXiously across the street
FIR the result Of the efforts of their comrades.
Ihe spokesman, who announced himself as
Major Moore, was under cons idcrablo difficulty
in making himself understood, owing to the
robustness of his cockney accent. His
story was translated, to the effect
that this particular squadron Of the army
held meeting on the river front last evening
after which they took up their line of march
through the Ninth Ward in solid phalanN three
files front. and with flies filled deep enough to

Hill WIS arrested and locked up. The visiting
delegation or flag Of truce detachment showed
considerable heat in presenting these facts to

told that Capt Hill could be- released only on
