CnrIisIe and .ha r.-,H

Boston Post: Mr.. Carlisle is said to be
IN favor oil carrying out the twenty to
tWenty-hve per cent. reduction in the
tarin which the commission advised but
did not secure. As the commission was
OVERWHELMINGLY protection in composi-
uon, ana announced at the close OF its
sessions that its work would secure n
twenty per e reduction, it is fair to in
Ter that even from a protectionist stand
point, a twenty per cent. reduction was
not regarded as too much. No sooner had
the commission made its general an
nounoement than the New York Trib,m,
took the ground that its report ought Ia
be adopted Just as it was, SO we supnose
even h Tribune thought it was a inst re-
duction. But the tariff bill that was
passed fell about eighteen per cent. short
oil being a twenty per cent. reduction, and
though the latter would satisfy Mr. Car.
hsle and revenue reformers generally for
a long time to come, the Tribune of this
winter goes back on the Tribune of las
winter, and calls Mr.. Carlisle a free-trader
because he wants to do what the Tribun,
less than a year ago wanted done without
debate. Consistency, verify, thou art no

THE TONQUIN QUESTION.
The Credits Asked for by the French


The Credits Asked for by the French
Government Granted.
PARIS, December 1S.-The Chamber to-
day voted the supplementary Tonquin
credit, 20,000,0o francs, for the first six
months in 1884. The vote was 312 to $50.
Prime Minister Ferry, replying to Lock-
roy, who criticised the governments Ton
quin policy, said the real question at issue
was decided by the Chambers vote of con-
fidence on the 10th instant, which could
not remain dead letter. The government
could not remain in a contemplative atti-
tude. The vote had bafIled the tactics of
Chinese diplomacy. Nothing would be-
changed in the wise policy which the
Chamber had sanctioned. The reinforce
ments which it was proposed to send to
Tonquin were calculated to insure the
termination of the Tonquin expedition
within a given time. at will give France
satisfaction" Ferry continued, "to know
that no fresh expedition is sent to Hue,
because we are already there. We must,
however, be prepared to support the
French residents and the French soldiers
at Hue if threatened. The King Of
Anam died a violent death. There is no
revolution at Hue. The French legation
there is not in danger. The French Pres
ident has not officially recognized the new
government of Arnam, but is negotiating
informally with it. Admiral Courbet has
gone to Sontay, and on his return will
state whether or not reinforcements are
necessary. The government cannot be
asked to publish its plans; it is necessary
to place confidence in the Ministry, and
allow it to conduct its operations with
necessary secrecy. Otherwise the House
will nave to choose another government.
The Prime Minister said he would fail in
his duty if he should disclose the plan CT
the Tonquin campaign or Tonquin nego-
tiations. Gen. Campenon would state
that he would be answerable concerning
the question of mobilizing. Gen. Campo
non would allow no doubt to remain re-
garding his solidarity with the Cabinet.
Lockroy replied to Ferry. He opposed
the credit, and declared it impossible to
support a government which made a prin-
ciple of e~quivocation, and had not the
loyalty to declare its objects.
At this point the president OF the Cham
Der called Lockroy to order.
Perrin also spoke against the credit, and
the House agreed to close the general de-
bate.
In the course of the debate, Bishop
Frepple stated that although he disap-
proved of the manner in which The eX-
petition had been conceived and con-
Quoted, he would vote for the credit,
which would give confidence to the army
and authority to the government. When
ever, he said, tile flag of France is brought
to the front it should be followed. This
was received with great applause by a
majority OF the members.
The clauses of the bill were adopted,
after a few remarks, and subsequently the
entire bill was adopted. In the course of
the debate Ferry's reference to Admiral
Courbet as 1.-The Brave Admiral" caused
laughter in the gallery. The president
thereupon ordered the gallery cleared.

Gault, the trunk-line arbitrators, heard
appeals from the awards of per cents in
the London freight pool made by Commits
sioner Fink, with which it is alleged there
is great dissatisfaction: All the trunk
lines were represented and submitted ar
guments for and against notifications of
aliotments. Pennsylvania is said to be
most dissatisfied with the present sched-
ule of percentages. Commissioner Fink
denied, however, in an emphatic manner
the report that the Pennsylvania roads
threatened to withdraw from the associa-
ton, and said the association roads were
never more stable than at present.

TERnE HAUTE, IND, December 1S.-A
special to the Express from Paris, ILL.,, says
that Sandford Norris, with other boys, ar
ranged a practical joke by having his two
brothers, Tod and Orlando, Winston Grit

apples. Sandford Norris and the other
boys were to be concealed, and at the
proper time fire a gun in the air. Instead,
BY almost criminal fatality. the gun was
pointed directly at the boys, who were
close together. Tod Norris was perforated
with f~ifty-one shot and died soon after.
Orlando Norris was seriously injured, as
was Griffin and Mclaughlin. 1t is thought
Griffin will also die.
