Chicago, 23.-Sir Henry Parkes, MEM
Der OF the Colonial Parliament of Aus

9u y on Australian wool, says: "TDe
Australians consider it a hardship for
the United States to keep up higher
rate of duty. I am q thorough free
trader" he said, 81 believe in it abso-
lutely, but 1 don't want to thrust my
opinion on the American public Every
thing made in America is admitted flee
Of duty into my colony and New South
Wales. When / say everything, mean
most manufactured goods, the exception
being the duty on tobacco and on spirits,
which il imposed by US to secure revenue
only. We do not impose any tariff for
protection purposes whatever. The tax
we levy on America We levy on Eng
land"
docs the American tariff on " oil act
as q prohibisory tariff to your people?"
'No, because Australian wool is i'm
ported. There are few manufacturers
in San Francisco who turn out wooden
goods equal to any in the world, and
some Of their blankets are the best ever
saw in manufactured goods. They are
obliged to mix some Australian wool with
American WOOL"
"Why?"
because they could not produce such
goods without Australian wool, it being
finer than any wool grown in America. "
did the redu tionsin the duty onwool
by the American Congress help you

The Mutual Union Company Lea.

The Mutual Union Company Leased by
the Western Onion.
New YORK, Feb. 10-Fhe much talked of
agreement between the Mutual Union and tn q
Western Union Telegraph companies, by which
the latter leases the property Of the former,
was completed today. The lease is a perpetual
one, and the considerations are the guarante e
OF the principal and interest OF the $4,000, 600
bonds of the Mutual Union company and of
u per cent. yearly upon its $4,000, 900 of
stock. The Western Union company assumes
all contracts for service, press and individual.
and for leased wires, made by the Mutual I'm
ion company The fixed yearly charges as
sumed by the Western Union company are
S30000O interest on the Mutual Union bonds;
Sl50U00 in dividends on the stock and $780,
600 TO meet the requirements of the sinking
fund, provided for in its bonds, a total of $780,
900 Thespresent gross earnings of the Mutual
Union lines are officially said to be at the rate
of about Sl ,600, 900. year, of which at least
two-thirds is required for operating expenses,
leaving the net earnings not much in excess
OF the bonded debt. BY consolidation of Of
fees, reducing of working force and other
remedies, 1t is estimated that the Western I'm.
ion company can operate the property at much
less than the present cost The Western Un-
ion people will also receive about S100 900 a
year OF the dividends and interests, payments
upon the stock and bonds of the Mutual Union
company, which it owns. The lease was rati-
fled to-day by the directors of both companies,
and will be ratified by three fifths of the stock
holders of both, as required by law The Mu-
tual Union company will, of course, maintain
formal organization, and one or two of its
original directors may, in time, be elected into
the Western Union directory The property
will be turned over to the Western Union com
pany as soon as the lease can be arranged. II
consists of about 900 miles of wire and off.
ces in all the principal points between Port.
laud, Me-, and Chicago and st Louis. AS a
consequence of the lease, all the suits between
the two companies will be discontinued

KAsSON'S BILL.

The Democl ats Express Their Inoigna-
ton of 1t in Caucus.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-The House Demo-
Gratis today gave formal expression to their
Indignation at the proposiuion made by Mr
Kasson to give the me jor ty power 10 move, at
any time, the passage Of revenue or apprpria-
tion blls under SUI ension of the rules in
a caucus, held Immediately after the sdjou
ment of the House this afternoon. The US
was short for the members were hungry. But
some vigorous speeches were made by Messrs.
Carlisle, Tucker, Cox, Springer, Townshend
and Others not only as to Kasson's PROPOSE
ton, but as to the attempts made every day by
the Republicans TO cut off debate. The mem
bers of the caucus pumed themselves upon
the victories they bad already won in the at
tempt TO get freedom to speak their minds on
the tariff question, and they encourage one
another 10 fight for free debate whenever it
seemed necessary. The Democratic members
OF the committee on rules were requested to do
all in their power to prevent favorable re-
port on Kasson's proposition. This is embod-
Jed in proposed new rule referred yesterday
to the committee on rules The majority of
the members present at the caucus thought
that their record on the tariff bill, SO far,
would commend itself to the people.
There was some criticism of those members
who have at times strengthened the protection
lists by voice or vote.
