New YORK, December 10.-Mr. A. A.
Stockton, of st. John, n. B., writing to the
New York Herald, commenting upon
statements on the tariff of Messrs. Boyd
and Everett, Canadian officials, has this to
say:
Our manufacturing industries have been
seriously injured by confederation, and that
injury has been intensified by the protec-
tive policy inaugurated by the Tory party
in 1879. These two gentlemen belong to
that party, and it is just possible they felt
it duty to bolster up as well as they
could the principle ofprotection. which is
falsely called the national policy. In the
quotation have given above they have
been good enough to designate certain
lines of manufacturers in which they think
our changed political and fiscal relations
have benefited New Brunswick. That
there may be no mistake on these points
submit the following statements for the
years 1871 and ISL respectively, taken
from the census returns of those years.
These returns show the number of hands
employed, the yearly wages paid and the
values of tho different products:-

RAILROAD MEETING
At Keyser to Further the Enterprise of
Building Road.

Special Correspondence QfhC Register.
KEYsER, w. VA, December 10.-Pur-
suant to notice published last week, q
goodly number of our citizens assembled at
the Court House, on Tuesday, December
1856, to take such action as might be
deemed expedient in reference to the build
ing of railroad from either Keyser, Cum
berland, or Romney, to Petersburg, a
point on the South Branch, thought by the
people of Grant County to be the most
eligible for railroad terminus. Great iE-
terest was manifested by those present in
the matter, and it was the general opinion
that if the outside world thoroughly un-
derstOOd the advantage of this point Pet
ersburg would be considered favorably by
any company proposing to penetrate the
counties Of Mineral, Hardy and Grant, to
the South Branch, and looking for a suita-
BILE place for temporary terminus.
The meeting was called tOOrder by Hon.
w. +. Dyer.
DR.. I. J. Grove was elected Chairman,
and Geo. L. Gosorn Secretary.
A paper setting forth the advantages of
the enterprise was read by Mr.. Dyer and
adopted as the sense of the meeting.
Upon motion of Mr.. A. B. Pugh, it was
ordered that committee of three be ap-
pointed to confer with the authorities of
the r. q o., three to confer with the au-
thorities of the Pennsylvania Central and
the Piedmont and Cumberland companies,
as to their intentions, probable assistance,
&c, and committee of ten, of which the
members sf the two former committees
should be ex-officio members, to make in
quiry as to route through the country,
probable cost of right of way, &c.
In accordance with the above motion
the following gentlemen were selected:

TRADES UNION CONFERENCE.
Serious Charges against the Kntghts-R<

Serious Charges against the Kntghts-Re-
port of the Conference Committtee.
COLUMBUS, O., December 1O.-The
Trades Union Conference met at $50 this
morning, with President Mcbride in the
chair. The delegates continued the dis
cussion of their respective unions, and
their relations to the Knights of Labor.
Some very serious charges in the eyes Of the
delegates, were made against the Knights,
and from their number it is evident that
a Conference Committee can never ad-
Just the differences.
The committee appointed to confer with
Mr.. Powderly's committee from the
Knights presented q written report. The
report stated that the Knights Of Labor
Committee did not have full power to act,
but could only adjust minor grievances,
and the committee asked for instructions.
The report was accepted, and the commit
tee instructed to insist upon q settlement
on the basis of the Trades Union treaty. II
is evident that the breach between the
two organizations is widening. and the
work of the Conference Committee indi-
Gates that the difference will not be ad-
justed. The feeling against the Knights
grows more bitter and open with every
days session Of the trades unionists- The
results Of this convention will no doubt be
a struggle for supremacy between the two
organizations, which will result in the sur
yival Of the fittest.

Between Druggist and n Sport Over a
Fair Jersey Lily.
TRENTON, y. j., December 10-Public
attention here has been diverted from the
aldermanic scandal by the whely-circu-
lated report of duel which is said to have
taken place on the Pennsylvania side Of
the Delaware river, opposite this city,
early yesterday morning. The principals
in this affair of honor are said to have
been druggist and a sporting man, both
of this city, and the difficulty which led
up to Sanguinary encounter is said to have
had its origin in a dispute rs to rights Of
the belligerents to pay court to a pretty
jersey belle. The immediate friends Of
the interested parties to the alleged duel
declined to talk, but a gentleman, who
says he knows all about the hostile meet
ing and how it resulted, gives the follow
ing account:
There were seven persons in the party
which left Trenton at dawn yesterday
morning. One of the seconds was Prince
ton student. A Trenton physician also
went along. The hill near the old brew
cry at Edge Hill Grove was the site Sc
leeted. The regulation distance was
paced off and the principals took their pO-
sitions. Revolvers were the weapons
The first shots exchanged went wide of the
mark At the second fire the sporting
man fell to the ground, being wounded by
the druggists; the bullet had entered his
left shoulder. The wounded man, while
he lay on the ground, fired on his antagon-
ist and struck him in the right shoulder.
The two duelists were then driven back
to Trenton, but unless their wounds prove
sarious 7 won't divulUa THAR names ~

Features in the New Bill of Lading.
ST. LOUIS, December 10.-The Middle
and Western States Freight Association
began its regular quarterly meeting at the
Southern Hotel yesterday, with permanent
President J. NJ. Osborn in the chair. All
the lines in the Association, fifty-eight,
were either represented by their own traffic
ocffiiaIs or by proxy. 1t was decided by a
unanimous vote to advance the rate on all
classes of west-bound freight from the ba-
sis of 40 cents per 100 poundsin first class,
Pittsburg to Chicago, to so cents. The
eastern initial points affected by the
change are Buffalo, Pittsburg and Wheel
ing and points common to them. On the
lower classes the advance will amount to
about two cents per 100 pounds.
The next business disposed of by the
Association was the unanimous adoption
of a new form of bill of lading. The most
Objectionable features of the new bill are
these: Neither this company, nor any
such other carrier, shall be liable for any
-ioss or damage to said property by dangers
or accidents incident to railroad transpor-
tation, or by fires or floods, while at de-
pots, stations, yards, landings. warehouses,
or in transit. And said property is TO be
carried at owners risk of leakage, break
age, chatting, loss in weight, or loss or dam
age caused by heat, frost, wet or decay,
and if any portion of route to destination
is by water, of all dangers to navigation. "
Shippers will be notified that on after
January /, no dray ticket or shippers
book will be receipted which does not con-
tain the above provisions. 1t will be OBJ
served that the roads are practically re-
lieyed of all risk incident to transporting
traffic and that it is thrown upon shippers
The report of the Classification Committee
was adopted, but it contains nothing of
public interest.
The question of organizing west bound
pool similar to the Central Traffic Associa-
tion was not presented, but it was decided
to take it up and dispose of it at the next
meeting, which will be held in Cincinnati
next March. The meeting then adjourn

nual summary of the iron ore business,
the Iron Trade Rcriew will tomorrow say
that the sales for 1856 will reach the
largest figures since the opening Of the
Lake Superior iron oreindustry thirty
wears ago. For the season ending Decem-
ber it estimates that 3, $50, 500 gross tons
were sold, compared with 2,93S, 400 tons
in 1885, an increase of 595, ,015 over last
wear. The amount of unsOld ore at lower

l6s, 554 tons being 664, ,5S5 tons in excess
of last year. The amount Of ore on dock
at Lake Erie ports December l, was $685.
40 tons, or 81, 46S tons less than at the
same time last year. From all these tacta
the Rerieur concludes that the docks will be
cleaned up by spring and that the out

CAMDENS
THE SENATOR WINS HIS POINT on THE
INTER STATE COMMERCE BILL.


Special Tsi<qrdm % tae Register:
WASHINGTON, d. c., December TO-
Senator Camden wins his point on the
Interstate Commerce bill. His amend
ment Was adopted by the Conference Com
mittee. The Committee of Conference be.
tween the Senate and House on the Inter
State Commerce bill have agreed upon
their report, which will be submitted
early next week. 1t is understood the re-
port restores the provision in relation to
the long and short haul to the language
of Senator Camden's amendment, and
provides that il shall be unlaw-
full for any railroad to charge
more for the transportation Of
passengers or property under substantially
similar circumstances and conditions for o
shorter than for longer distance over tho
same road and in the same direction. The
report also provided ample remedies, both
in the courts and by commission to be
appointed for the purpose Of carrying out
the provisions of the bill. Senator Cam
den's influence in favor of this bill Ia gen.
orally recognized and will gain for him
great credit in accomplishing good work
in the direction.
Judge Reagan, Of Texas, gave q brief
statement of the provisions of the bill ~
agreed upon by the committees, asfollows:
We have not adopted the provisions Of
either bill entire. We adopted the princi
pies Of the House prohibiting discrimina
ton by rebates, drawbacks, cut-ntes or
otherwise. We included the long and the
short haul provisions Of the House, with
an amendment giving the right To the
commission in special cases 10 allow
more charge for the short than the
long haul. We adopted the pro-
visions of the House bill guarding
against pooling, and the clause on
the subject Of publishing rates with an adj
dition which improves the section by
allowing the commission 10 require the
publication of the railroads 20 points De-
youd its lines. We provided that viola
ton of the provisions or the act Ia ground
for civil suit and criminal prosecution,
and that in the case of civil suit where the
party RECEIVERS, his attorneys fee is to be
taxed, and the sum Is to be paid Ms part
Of the bill Of costs. We agreed 10 CON-
mission with notifications Of its powers,
as indicated in the foregoing, and also n
new provision that any party aggrieved by
the action of the railroads, may either pro-
ceed in the courts Of the country, or 10 be'
fore the commission, but not before both.

support their views of protection. The
gentlemen composing that firm are Of the

the home market with their tacks; to-day
they cannot even do that, and to the re-

Higher Wages.
DENIsoN, TEN, December 10.-At 8
O'Clock last night the Missouri Pacific
switchmen at this place struck and walked
out of the yards in body. The griev-
ance was too much work for the pay. The
men called on Mr.. Goldman, Division
Superintendent, in the morning and asked
an increase of wages to the same amount as
given by the other roads of the system and
gave him until 8 p. m. to decide. As no
reply was given at the time specified they
quit. All is orderly and quiet. Some OF
the conductors have been asked to do the
work, but none have done so yet. The
yard is full Of cars that need switching.
If men are not soon employed the jam will
be immense.
