The canYassers are meeting with great
llberallty among the business men Of the
city, Many have given $40 and given 1t
cheeriully, while scarcely man has re-
fused a dollar. The plan thus inaugural

complete ciniiEc revision Of the taIth.
He cited several instances OF the striking
inequalities OF the present law.
Speaking In particular OF the glass In
teIests, he said that perhaps reduction IN
tue tariff on pressed goods might be made
for the same reasons that three yeaIa ago
made the manufacturers content to let the
duty remain at IS peTcentum-nRmely,
still further improvements in appliancesj
but they we're not in position 70 stand
anything like q marked reduction on the
liner goods.
LABOR NREDs PROTECTION.
Mr.. Bruckunier said that he was not a
prohibItoyy tariff man. AS mAnufas-
turer he was not really in need OF tariff,
the quality Of mis- goods being such that
he could vompete with the trade any
where, but for the same reason that in
1882 an increase OF from 40 to 10 percent
was asked-ths great difference in wages
paid here and abrosd-it was neces-
sary 10 be protected by q tariff.
And that tariff should be one,
in his opinion, 70 protect the Amer
lean workman. And to demontrate this,
are these facts: The cost Of labor in the
articles coming under the present 70 per
Centum schedule is about 90 percent Of
tho cost OF production; in England this
cost is from 90 to 70 percent lees than
here. Mr.. BrockunieF did not think that
the new bill would be passed; his opinion
is that both political parties are afraid TO
do much tinkering with this all important
subject,

and sufficient to protect the American

ings are obtained at the Treas
my department which enable importers
10 bring IN iron at less than the legal rate
OF duty. Take the one article Of coTrugat'
ed iron, which 10 nothing but sheet iron
with some additional work put on
1t. We make iron largely to be
corrugated. By 8 ruling oil the de-
partment corrugated IRON Is brought in at
an dd rdlOrsm duty under the omnibus
clause, as iron not otherwise specified.
Then It Is imported at q reduced ,yalua'

item Is 'crunk' iron, which we make
largely here, or did make largely, for the

THE CONVENIENT "RULlSGs,"
Mr., Whitaker referred TO the Aslo-
Giated Press dispatch printed in the
ISTKLLIGENcER last week, In which Mr.,
Roger Shermans declaration concerning
the illegal importation OF books Is made
public. This throws much light, Mr.,
Whitaker thinka, on ths subject OF treas
ury rulings in general. 1.-THE department
Is open to corruption in the interests OF
books, why not so in the interest Of i'm
portsIs OF iron2 The famous ruling
which admits "terne plate" and other
classes OF iron as tiR-plate, because It has
been treated to bath in tin, less than .

ever, WAS referred to as showing the In
iquiEy Of decisions OF that character,
Mr. Whitaker iavoB specific duty,
This prohibits fraud to a certain extent
at least II prevents differentiation and
unfair extension OF the omnibus clause
by collision between treasury OtliCislf
and the importers.
Now, Mr., Whitaker sSys, no sheet iror
maker in this country ia getting rich very
fast, Most OF the works arc run at bari
living rate. The proposed change from /
specific duty OF from IL ceut to l,5 cen

yesterday visited all these works to learn
the exact State Of the window glass manu-
iacturo in this country, as affected by the
present tarid, and as 1t would be affected
should the proposed reduction become q
law. The directors, secretaries and work.
men who were seen are unanimous and en-
phAtiC in their condemnation Of Their eduC-
ton, and think 1t would at once kill the
business entirely. The tariff on this kind
Of window glass Is levied on the weight,
and tue progressed reduction averages one.
half cent per pound on the sizes generally
made here. Foreign glass Ia supposed TO
average from fifty to tfty.dve pounds per
box, and therefore the reduction would be
about twenty-five cents per box.
James A. Wells, Secretary OF the Bel
laire works, thinks that the immediate ei.
feet OF such bill would be to stop all

country, az foreign glass would rush In

country, is another gentleman who appear.
ed before the Tariff Commission in 1852
and made a clear and concise statement,
which was iayorably received by the Com.
nilsson. At that time the rate Of duty on
Iine cut, engraved and decorated glass.
ware was 10 percent dd VdlOrsm, and on
pressed ware 50 percent. The glass men
wetes4satisiled 10 lot this latter class Of
goods remain ct % percent, having found
that they could at that rate sue.
Cessiully compete With foreign countries,
because they were making use Of great
many improvements aud appliances Of
American invention, such a. superior ma
chinefy and furnaces, larger pOls, etc,
equaliiiug the difference between theloE
wages paid abroad and the higher wages
paid In this country fofl all Glasses Of
labor, common or skilled. Bnt they asked
for an increase from 40to 10 percent In
the duty on the finer glass. The Commits.
sion recommended that this tafiT be
raised from 40 70 81 percent, and this was
approved by the House Committee on
Ways and Means, but the OUmmittee on

Andrew SchiCk, President Of the Enter.
prise, thinks II is sweeping blow at
American window glass workers and
would kill the glass industry. The work.
men recently accepted a ten percent re.
duCtion In wages 10 enable the manuiac.
turors to compete with foreign factories
under the present tariff. Now this large
reduction would be beyond the reach Of
any Btch remedy, for the men would have
10 put themselves on level with the
worst paid Of foreign workmen. Ameri.
can glass is heavier than foreign glass, aud
can hold It's own with the present tariff,
but TO allow the manufacturers 10 make
any profit whatever, the tariff should be
put higher instead oil made lower,
Joseph Bates, Of the Enterprise, who is
regarded as an authority on the subject,
says. "The reduction would most undoubt.
eddy have,to come on;ths shoulders Of the
wofkmen and could not be borne. The
average wages oil blowers 10 W cents per
box. OF course, many Of the workmen
have still less wages with which 10 stand
any such reduction, The tariff should be
put up instead oil down, then we would
have steady work and the manufacturer
would be In good shape"
D. D, Crafty, late Secretary oil the Enter.
prise, thinks the average loss 10 the man
uiACtufet on every box Of glass made now
10 not less than 20 cents aud that twenty.
Eve cents per box lees on the tariff lists
would Immediately kill tue business.
DISHONEST COLLECTIONS.
A. ". voegtly, Secretary Of the Crystal,
thinks the present tariff would protect the
business II the duties were honestly col.
lected. The average production Of the
1000 pots In this country Is something
lees than 1900, 700 boxes per anhum, and
there are annually about 100000 boxes
imported. The average importation iof
Ihs last ten years has been about 10000
boxes per annum. But the actual impof.
lAtion 10 much greater than II seems, fot
the Importer have their boxes made large
and bring tnem al In u an ayetage
