RepIieS of Manufacturers to Secretary Mar
ning'S Circular OF Inquiry.


WASHINGTON, D. O., Nov. 24.-1n re-
sponse to Secretary Of the Treasury Man
ling's circular OF July nth last, asking
for their views on the tariff, the American
Iron and Steel Association, through the
officers and Executive Committee, have
ssnt in pamphlet Of twcnty-eight pages,
with an appendix Of fifteen pages addi-
tional covering some very interesting and
spicy correspondence with the Secretary
in regard to the character OF the iuforma-
ton to be furnished. The Manning cir
cular deals with two important subjects:
tirst, the question OF substituting specific
for advalorem duties as remedy for frauds
on the revenue, and, second, the compare.
tive cost OF production OF manufactured
articles in this country and other coun-
tries.
Following are the replies OF some Of the
manufacturers: Mr.. Thomas N. Carnegie,
Chairman Of Carnegie Bros. & Co., Linn
tied, writes; Notwithstanding your able
argument in favor Of reporting details OF
cost OF production OF iron and steel, as re-
Quested by the Secretary Of the Treasury,
and in iess Objectionable form by your.
self, am Of the opinion that our interests
would not be served by making such re.
turns as you indicate"
The National Tube Works Company,
McKeesport, say buntly: 1--WE respect.
fully decline to give Secretary Manning's
circular any attention whatever, as We are
notin sympathy with Mr.. Manuing's ideas,
and therefore positively decline to impart
the information called for"
The Jefferson Iron Works, Steubenville,
through their President, MIR. w. II. Wal
lace, "beg to decline to furnish the intor-
nation asked for" Mr.. Samuel Laughlin,
President Of the Junction Iron Company,
Wheeling, says: "The inquiries are such
as decline answering"
A Wheeling nail manufacturer replies
thus pointedlyl "a proper way to asCer-
tain the cost Of making nails would be to
I'huild a nail factory"
N. L. Whitaker, Secretary OF the Whita-
ker Iron Company, Of Wheeling, has de.
cided views and the courage to express
them. he says: eve are adverse to
stating the private features Of our business
and especially TO giving our cost of pro.
duction. The Secretary OF the Treasury
can and need only look about him to see
the idle mills and workshops, the idle
Workmen and starving families living
wholly on charity, and the paralyzed con-
dition OF business generally. Strikes have
been prevalent over the entire country.
Hands are unwilling to accept reduced
wages, and factories are idle because Of
inability to pay good wages and avoid
bankruptcy. What more does he need ?
Further reductions OF duty simply mean
greater shrinkagei In values OF American
plants and more idle people and capital.
This has been demonstrated sufficiently
without the manufacturers Of the country
opening their private lehgers,"

LONDON, Nov. 24.-The general result OF
to-day's elections is slightly in favor OF
q Conservative reaction, although it
affords no certain indication Of the ulh-
mate results. At Birmingham there has
been no diminution Of Radical strength,
except that Bright's majority over Lord
Randolph Churchill is smaller than the
Radicals expected. The greatest numeri-
cal Conservatiy, victoryiB that Of W. q.
Smith in the Strand division. Speaking
generally to-day's figures approximate
those OF the last election, the Liberal vote
running less and the Conservative more.
The vote at Chelsea will be announced to-
morrow.

Tnr Rev. Sam Jones, the noted South
srn revivaiist, is holding a protracte6
meeting at st. Louis. Last Sunday, in the
course Of his opening sermon he made the
following remark:
The speaker said he had not determined
on any particular line Of sermons for these
meetings. He always endeavored to adapt
his talk to his audience. One time in
Memphis an old colored sexton came to
him and said; Brother Jones, ! thank
the Lord that we've now got the preacher
who puts the fodder where we can
reach 1t. Last year my preacher didn't
put the fodder down low enough. l was
always hungry when I went to church,
aud by the time / left 1t was almost
starved" .,
There is good common sense in this re.
mark Of the colored brother. In the
pulpit, as everywhere, the secret Of reach
ing the popular heart is to put the fodder
where the people can reach 1t.

the fact that stocks declined Z percent in
