IRON MEN AND THE SENATE TARIFF BILL.

IBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE
WAsHfNGrUN- Feb. 1s.-Evidences multiply Of
widespread feeling amcng the IRON men OF the
country against the Senate Tariff bill. 1t Is said
that they believe that special effort has been made
against them by the Free Traders from variety of
causes. 4 large number Of manufacturers Interested
in small industries who anxious TO get their iron
cheap have combined against them and the result is
that their own interest Is butchered in the Son
ate bill, to quote the words of one OF these men.
They dwell upon the special hardship involved in the
fact that the iron trade is the duest in the
country to-day. the embarrassments among It's man.
ufacturers the most serious. and the failures ana
financial disasters the most numerous
Some prOmIneut Republicans take the ground that
the Republican party can only damage itself by
permitting such bill to become "A law. They saJ
that there general disposition to accept the
Tariff Commissions report and to hope that all
could unite upou it but that has practically been
thrown aside and an entirely new bill. so tar as this
industry is concerned, is in It's ice. They argue
that ther own industry is so closely identified with
fhe prosperity OF the whole country that the Repub
iican party cannot afford 10 see it destroyed.
