HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.

WASHINGTON, February 2.-After
the appointment of confeeres OF the
postoffioe appropriation bill the house
went into committee Of the whole on
the tariff, the pending amendment
being that offered by Cariin, of Penn
sylvanin, to increase the..duty on tan.
ming bark from 10 to 20 per cent ad-
valorem.
The chemical schedule having been
concluded, Messrs. Morrison and
Townshend each offered a clause and
substitute providing for 10 and 20 per
cent reduction on the chemical schedule
at the expiration Of n and two years.
Both were lost.
Schedule b, earthenware and glass
ware, was then considered. Many
amendments were offered and rejected
and debate continued at great length.
Mr.. Hammond remarked that every
time al industry was reached some
body rose and said this is my infant
and has to be taken care OF.
Mr.. Tucker ridiculed the Idea that
an industry which only required sc
per cent protection in It's infancy
should In ita manhood need 90 per
cent protection.

Tho Bucket shops Troubles.


CHICAGO, February 2 The case Of
Nohe against the Western Union Tele-
graph company and the board Of trade
was decided by Judge Moran, in the
circuit court to-day. Nphe Is pro-
prietor of a bucket shop and filed his
bill to en- oin the telegraph company
from removing the t,ckers from his
establishment ard from Withholding
the market quota ions as they exist on
the board of trade. He also sought
to eojbin the b ,sri of trade from en-
forcing it's rule against furnishing In
formation and quotations to suoh
establishments. The INJUNCTION was
granted without notice on tilirg the
b II and the motion for the dissolution
Of the injunction was argued last week
and the court gave IN elaborate
opinion sustaining the right of
the telegraph company to withhold
the market quotation upon the ground
of the immortality and illsgality of the
business In which the complainant was
engaged. He held the statute against
gambling In grain applicable, and also
that the business was demoralizipg
and pernicious, and a court Of equity
would refuse its aid to any one who
came with unclean hands and asking
assistance to prosecute q business
against the public policy of the state.
He accordingly dissolved the ipjunc
ton. This was a test case, the
attorneys Of all the bucket shops
taking q part In the argument.

A Heavy Failure

sgraph: 1.-THE Union Iron and Steel
company has made to Addision L
Grifia a mortgage for $1,000, 600,
payable In ten years with interest a.
z per cent, subject to q mortgage Of
$500, 900 t the Connecticut Mutual
Lite Insurance company, and gives a.
security all Of It's property of every
description" This doubtless led to .he
rumor On tho streets that the company
had failed. A, + Stone, the presl-
dent, made the following statement:
"We may have to suspend and place
the company in the hands If a re-
ceiver for the best interests of all.
The circumstances which brought
it about are q large amount
of material on hand, the do.
cline III price of rails, and more than
ali tho unressonableness tf men who
are disposed to control capital and de-
mand 80 to 40 per cent more for their
work than paid by the EASTERN mills.
The eff ,ers decline in advance of q
definite action to make any statement
of the assets and liabilities.
The following figures are the most
reliable obtainable. The value of the
plant $4,000, 600, the capital stock is
50. 600, 600. the annual statement last
year showed a surplus of Sc 0lO. 600
besides two mortgage liabilities esti.
mated at 81, 900 900. At the close Of
navigation the company had on hand
So, SEQ 900 worth of ore for which il
was in debt. This has been reduced
to $1,000 600. How much il due
on it is MT known. The controlling
interest Is held by A. B. Stone Of this
city and Amasa Stone Of Cleveland.
A. L. Griffin, to whom the million dol
lar mortgage is made, Is of the off
GERS. At 6 o'clock this evening the
men we're informd that the mills would
be closed tomorrow. Two thousand
men are thrown out of employment
and many of them have no money
ahead as they have been on q strike
recently. Probably q receiver will be
appointed tomorrow. The company
has no paper with the ranks, and 1t ii
not believed the failure will embarrss
any one else. Amasa Stone is th'
heaviest creditor. One of the cause
of the failure Is the completion o
