SUGAR AND RICE.
: Further Pleas for Protection.

CINCINNATI, September 5-A deputation
from the Grocers' Association of CincIn-
natl, consisting of James NJ. Clean, L. c.
Keever, James II. Laws and David A. White,
came before the Tariff Commission this
morning and presented papers on the
question Of duties on sugar, molasses and
rice. The paper advocated continuance
OF the wise and liberal policy Of protection
for rthose staples of the South and Southwest.
They urged that no change be made in the
duties on those articles that would afford
less protection than is now extended them,
as the present tariff gave no more protection
tnan was actually necessary to encourage
their production and stimulate their in
crease. They expressed the opinion that
the agricultural classes of the Mississippi
valley are in warm sympathy with the de-
velopment of those great Southern interests
because they fully appreciated the advan-
tages to be derived from the establishment
OF large and permanent home markets for
their products. In the event of any modif-
cations OF the tariff on sugar, they suggest
that grades Nos. A. Is and 16 should not, as
now. bescaled SO high above refining grades
as to exclude them, but that they should be
so graded as to allow their importation.
They also recommend the use of the polari-
scope as test for the grades Of sugar
In reply to questions by Mr.. Kenner, Mr..
Keever stated That the views in these pa
perSwere those Of the entire grocery trade
of Cincinnati, and that the association had
no connection whatever with the sugar re-
ining interest.
Mr. Laws stated in reply to a ques-
ton by Mr.. Olive that there was no
general feeling in the community in
favor Of any radical change in the tariff,
and it would be better TO let the tariff re-
main as 1t is than to have It materially In
terfered with in either WaV
NJ. B. Daily, representing the steamboat
interest between Cincinnati and New Or
leans, made an argument against any reduc-
tion Of The duties on sugar, molasses and
rice that would operate against the produc-
tiOn of those staples in the South, and con-
sequently against the interest of the river
transportation companies. His company
owned ten or eleven palatial steamers, with
q capacity of from 1900 to 1,500
tons each. They made eight or nine
trips each season, taking up sugar
and molGsses and rice, and in return
taking down the manufactures of the
Northwest. This trade would be ruined by
free trade In sugar. He asked that there
should be no changes in the existing tariff.
There being no other person present who
desired to present any views, the COM
mission dj0urned to meet tomorrow In
Louisville.

HILL AND YANCEY,
The True Version Of the DImcuIIy
Between Them.

Wdshinqtolt Special to the Boston Herald.
DR.. James B. Hamilton, of Georgia, who
was a surgeon In the Confederate army, aud
a friend of Ben. Hill and Yancey, gives the
following as the true version Of the difficulty
between them: sThe trouble between Mr..
Hill and Mr.. Yancey." he said, GREW out
of politics, and dated back to 1850. When
Mr. Hill was sent to the Confederate Senate
he vas very much opposed TO the war.
YanceY was a fre-eater, and great
ha,er of President JEFF. Davis. Mr..
Hill assumed the championship Of Mr..
Davis in the Senate, took sides with
aud defended him in everything
he said and did. This so exssperated Yam
cey that, one day In the Senate, after Mr..
Hill had made a speech In defense OF Mr.
Davis, he rose in his place, and In that style OF
his, which was simply inimitable, proceeded
to charge MIR. Hill with inconsistency and
want Of srdOr for the cause of the South.
He brought up MIR. HIPS past record, and
finally referred TO the Stephens difficulty,
and intimated that HUI was a coward.
When he did that Mr. Hill picked up an
inkstand and threw it st Yancey, lust graz
ing his cheek bone. Ysncey, in lodging,
slipped and fell backward over his desk,
thereby hurting himself slightly. That was
all there was of It." "Then Mr.. Hill did
not, as is generally believed, by physical
force throw Mr.. Yancey across a desk, thus
producing such spinal injury as to eventually
cause his desthy" "He did not. He was
not within ten feet Of Mr.. Yancey." "Then
the seemingly premature death of Mr..
1ancey was not in any sense caused or
brought about by Mr.. HIP" SIT was not
Mr.. fancey died Of Bright's disease of the
kidneys. This YOU can state as q fact as
true IS holy writ"

A HORSES MOUTH is easily opened for
examination by introducing a finger by
the side of the mouth into the space be-
tween the nippers and the grinders, when
he will move his tongue to get rid of the
finger and show as much of the nippers
or lower teeth as to enable you to ascer-
tain his age. Sulky horses require to
have their lips held apart, and vicious
ones will strike out with fore foot when
their mouth is meddled with, wherefore
care is sometimes required. A cows
mouth cannot be examined without first
holding her nose, elevating her mouth
and drawing down her lower lip. Some
cows, like some people, will not allow
themselves to be taken by the nose, and
it can only be done by stratagem. Some
have way of curling up their nostrils
when held, so that their pressure against
the holders fingers renders them power
less; but steady pinch of the thumb
nail against the septum or partition of
the nose will make any cow give way

has directed that q careful investigation
be held into the recent conduct and previ-
GUS character OF the memorialists. He will
himself personally review the result Of the
inquiry, and promises that those men will
be reinststed who appear deserving.
LONDON, September "A dispatch to the
Press Association from Dublin represents
that the answer OF Earl Spencer has given
great satisfaction. It is officially denied that
the men have returned to duty in conse-
quence of any tacit understanding. O1 the
contrary, they were informed on Saturday
that they would be dismissed if they did
not ret urn to duty
A dispatch to the Press Association from
Dublin, says: cit is expected that about
220 of the 234 dismissed cOnstables will be
reinstated, only the ringleaders being ex-
cluded."
The correspondent Of the Tah Mall Ga
zette telegrsphs that the police are not
altogether satisfied with the reply of Earl
Spencer, as it leaves them in almost the
same uncertainty as before.

The WeaIthiest Nan in Mexico.
Correspondence st. Louis Republican.

From Nuevo Laredo, on the Rio
Grande, to the Solado river the ride is
devoid of interest, and during it the best
thing to do is to recline comfortably in
one of the airy coaches and sleep. South
west of the Solado a table-land some
$500 feet high may be seen. The sides
are rocky and almost perpendicular, the
top level and covered here and there with
forests of timber. The table land, or
mesa, as it is styled by the Mexicans,
has surface area of 100000 acres 1t
is owned by Patricia MilmO, an Irish
man married in Mexican family, the
wealthiest man in Mexico, worth
| am informed, something more than
$40, 100000 Milmo's mesa has a reputa-
tion all over the country. a part of it is
cultivated for corn, grapes, sugar cane
and maguey. Milmo's residence IS on the
summit-a handsome stone structure,
very large and ornamented by cornices
and pillars imported from France and
the United States. The interior is like a
palace, and so rich with gold and silver
and precious stones that the eye is
dazzled with their splendOr. Milmo is
President of the Bank of Mexico, an in
stitution with powers and privileges in
this country as great as are the Bank of
England's in Britain His father-in-
Jaw, Santiago VidaIri, was exc
cuted for supplying money to re-
volUtionists, and he himself narrowly
escaped similar death, though he was
connected in a monetary sense with the
opposing forces. Since then brigands
have captured him several times and
compelled him to pay from $4,000 to
$25, 900 ransom. These adventures
taught him precaution, and he has turn
cd the mesa into sort OF. citadel accessi-
bic by only narrow path, obstructed by
an iron gate of enormous proportions.
He has distilleries and several factories,
in which goods are manufactured for his
own use, on the mesa, and intends to re-
tire to his mansion whenever another in
surrection is imminent 1t is said that
when he came to Mexico he did not have
dollar, and got his start in business
from his fatherin-law.
