insOn did not think the Government should enter
into business competition with private enterprise
The wharves which Brooklyn owned had cost too
much and paid little revenue. Ii would he bad TO

it been washed away by the drilling ram
At thousands of street corners where no attempt
had been made to clear away the snow from sewer

MeD women and children were forced either to
wade nearly knee-deep through these sein-llquld

Later IN the afternoon heavy rain began failing

didn't. The ram stopped and left the situation as
bad as ever.

Judge Lawrence first comptroller
of the treasury rendered a decision
in the case of the appeal of the sub
contractor for carrying mails
from the action Of the sixth audi
tor, in withholding from him COM
pensation for his services for three
months, for the reason that while
ne had fully performed the service
the original contractor had failed
to perform the service under
another contract.
Judge Lawrence says the effect
of the statute and regulation of the
postoff1ce department on the subject
is that a subcontractor is entitled to
the authorized payment for the
service of any quarter when his
contract is filed and notice given to
the proper auditor before the balance
is certified therefor, in favor Of the
original contractor.

Washington, 1S.-The difference
between the House and Senate in
regard to the appropriation in the
postoffice bill for fast mail facilities,
will have to be settled by confer
ence committee. The House appro.
priated nothing for that purpose,
while the Senate, by large major
ity, appropriated $1S5,000, a sum
sufficient to maintain the service
next year, similar to that of the
current year. Last year the post
master-genera gave 100000 for fast
mail. This was pool arrangements
of railroads west of Chicago, such
as to prevent him doing anything
in that direction, though he retained
the fast mail in the east, which the
companies are willing to continue
at a cost of $1S5,00o. When the
clause making appropriations for
this service was under considers
ton in the House this year. western
members complained that the west
had received no benefit from the
appropriation, and they voted
against any appropriation whatever.
The vote in both branches was 80
decisive that it is impossible to pre-
dict what the conference committee
wild do.

fore the committee at an early date

sage. Fisher has prepared an
amendment to the bill, providing
that not less than 10000 silver

the demonetizing of silver. Mr.

The Metal Tariff.

Washington, IS. = The Senate
finance committee, to-day, gave a
further hearing to n. II. Oil
yer, of the tariff commission, in re-
gard to the metal schedule proposed
by the tariff commission. A prom
inent member of the committee
thinks it very probable the commit
tee will decide to bring in an
amendment to their pending tariff
bill, to provide for making two clas-
sifcations of steel, and imposes a
higher duty on bars, ingots, etc.,
made of higher priced steel than on
blooms and less costly material.
The committee found upon investi-
cation, that the classification pro-
posed by the tariff commission
would admit at the same rate high
priced charcoal steel from Swedish
iron, made by the Tremens-Martin
process, and high priced ingots made
by .the Bessemer process, the for
mer being valued at $120 dollars,
and the latter at $50 OF $50 ton.
The commission Will therefore prob
ably adopt the limitation that will
distinguish the two for import pur-
poses. The tariff commission re-
commended this Limitation as
to the weight of blooms
if no less than 500 pounds
and not less than five inches in the
least diameter in cross section the
rate to be 6-10 cents per pound.
This Limitation the committee have
stricken out the result of which
they now find would be to admit
high priced steel at Clio per cent.
per pound which under the commits
sion bill would pay cents pound.
This the committee think would do
injustice to manufacturers of fine
steel in this country, and it is
thought they would undoubtedly
adopt some plan to remedy the
defect. The committee have also
become convinced that its proposed
reduction of the duty on pig iron
from $6.72 per ton, as in the tariff
commission bill to Sc, would work
great injury to domestic manufac.
turers and will probably reconsider
their action and recommend the
tariff commission rate. They have
received remonstrances from man
ufacturers in Ohio, Pennsylvania,
and other states, asserting that a
Sc rate would compel the closing Of
many furnaces. Late this after
noon Oliver was given second and
final hearing, at which he furnished
the committee important informa-
ton in reference to the recommen-
dation of the tariff commission for
increased duty on plate and hoop
iron and the imposition of the duty
on steel blooms under the newly
invented processes.
