The TariR-Arguments.

The ways and means committee heard
yesterday delegation OF the Philadelphia
Textile Association, who presented views In
opposition to the proposition to reduce the
tariff on textile products.
Mr. Ferguson, of New York, representing the
thread manufacturers, said that this trade,
above a II others, required steadiness in duties,
Wages of labor employed In this industry in
the United States were more than double the
wages in England. The strongest proof that
the duties were not too high was the fact that
yarns were imported into this country from
England OF price for which they could not be
produced here. The manufacture could not be
conducted with lower duty.
MI. Sanford, of FAN River Mass, a manu-
iacturer of fine cotton yarns said the English
manufacturer could put fine yarns IN this coun-
try at a price cents per pound lower than the
cost OF production here, and the result of the
cents per pound. The high cost of labor ac-
counted for the difference.
John A. Walker, representing the manuiae.
turing lead pencil industry, read statement
prepared by the Faber, Eagle Dixon, and
American Pencil Companies, deprecating any
reduction in the duty on pencils.
Mr.. McMeans representing 400 workmen oil
the Pennsylvania Salt Manufacturing Com
pany, read q protest against any reduction o.
The duty on soda. Soda, he said was made
from salt by his company. His wOrkmen were
living in contented way, but had become ap
prehensive ofthe results of the riffagitatlon

Democracy VS.. knights of Labor.
RICHMOND, March 10.-An amusing per-
sonal collision occurred here to-day between
Mai. Robert Stiles and Mr.. John Howard,
two lawyers. The whole affair is bourbon
Of the first water. 1t will probably be
hushed up by the bourbon newspapers.
A week or ten days ago stiles, who is a
great man IN his own conceit, united with
other gentlemen Of equal internal expan-
siveness in getting up q public meeting
to deal with the Knights Of Labor trouble
The call Of the meeting was q piece Of
ofllcious superserviceableness and resulted
Just as might have been expected. At
the appointed time quite q meeting as
sembled. stiles, George J.. Christian, an
ex.iudge Of the criminal court, and John
Is, Purcell, sometimes called "colonel' and
sometimes called "a business man, under
took to run the meeting The ostensible
business was to conciliate the Knights of
Labor who had been boycOtting quite promis-
cuously, and whose detection In the spring
elections is greatly feared. The real OBJ
ject, many people suspected, was to obtain
little cheap local notorlety for the mana
gers Of the "conciliation.n
The meeting had barely organized when
Mr.. John Howard, bourbon lawyer,
launched forth in rattling denunciation
OF the Knights OF Labor and was jumped
upon numerically by stiles and Purcell.
Instead Of "pouring oil on the troubled
swaters" the parties set fire to their own
oil, and both succeeded In thoroughly Of
Tending the Knights Of Labor, so that they
are more inflamed and antagonized than be ,
fore the''peace" meeting. Stiles and Purcell
called Howard all sorts Of hard names, and
Howard retorted with a four-column as
sault on them In which, in most caustlc and
opposite description, he ridiculed both, but
stiles particularly. Meanwhile the Ldb0,
Herald, organ OF the Knights Of Labor, has
been denouncing them all, and the breach is
widened.
To-day the fun eliminated by stiles visit
ing Howard's office and slapping his face
This is quite q new role for stiles, who is
part exhorter, part lawyer, and part Young
| Mems Christian Association, a little of all
and not great deal of any. On the other
| hand Howard is not so popular himself
that mob will resent his beating. 1t is q
beautiful fight as 1t stands. The Republi.
cans are praying and watching for the hour
OF their redemption. Between the liquor
| question, Knights of Labor, and personal
| feuds, the bourbon party is in sweet mess
| of II. The Republicans are harmonious
| united, watchful. Rest assured that they
| will avail themselves Of every opportunity
You need not expect to hear Of any funerals
resulting from the above; 1t is only an affair
OF "Honah, sab !"

Ralph Beaumond, Of Elmlra, N. y, lee
tured last night at Odd Fellows Hall,
Eighth street southeast, before Local AS
sembly, No. 40SG, X. Of L., on the declara-
tions and principles Of that order, before q
large and intelligent audience. The
Marine band volunteered its services for
the occasion and played several popular
airs. Richard Emmond presided over the
meeting, and introduced the lecturer.
Mr.. Beaumont, in an able and forcible
style, proceeded to explain the leading
principles Of the Knights of Labor as enun-
ciated in their platform. The larger part of
his lecture was devoted to the discussion Of
the fourteenth article, which is that "We
demand at the hands Of Congress the estab-
lishment Of q national monetary system in
which a circulating medium in necessary
quantity shall issue direct to the people
without the intervention Of banks; that all
the national issue shall be full legal tender
in payment Of all debts, public and private,
and that the government shall not charter
or recognize any private banks or create
any banking institutions"
The speaker maintained that the silver
dollar was the peoples money and that It's
coinage might be continued by the govern.

OF the gold dollar, and also to enable the
wages Of the workingmen to be kept up to

| II the silver dollar was driven out. Con
tinuing, he said: "Something must be done
at this session Of Congress for the benefit Of
the people, or some of those who now oc
cupy seats in the halls of Congress will moi
be here at the next session to air their elo'

that time has passed, and only acts will be
accepted by the people in this crisis of the
affairs Of the nation.
Many Of his illustrations were most ap
and eloquent, and were received by the
audience with great enthusiasm and ap
| plause. At the close Of the lecture the
thanks Of the meeting were unanimously
rendered to him for his interesting and in

THE DUCHESS DEMAND.
She Insists That She Has Been In
famousIy wronged and Requests a
Hearing by Judge Edmonds.

Commissioner James b. Edmonds, as
president of the board of commissioners, yes
terday received communication from Mrs.
Ollie Ellis, better known as the "California
Duchess" under date of New York, March
o. She prefaces her statement by asking
that he will accord mercy and justice and
hear the prayer Of a prosecuted woman. She
repeats the circumstances connected with
her arrests in this city, insists that infamous
falsehoods have been told about her to the
defamation Of her character, and thinks the
authors of them should be summarlly pun
ished. She claims that she has always been
a respectable woman, is married and the
mother Of five children, and has never done
anything wrong. She informs the commits
sioners that she has business in this city
which she wishes to attend to, but has been
informed by the detectives that II she comes
here they will arrest her again. She desires
to know II such things are possible-if q
woman who has never done any wrong can
be eternally prosecuted by detectives, who,
she declares, are mad because she did q
piece of detective work that they should
have done. She believes that If the COM
missioners will accord her hearing she
can, in short time, prove that she has
been misrepresented and wronged. Having
been thwarted in every effort to see those
in authority and explain the situation, she
makes this personal appeal, trusting that
her request will be granted.

Compulsory Coinage Condemned.


Nearly all ofthe savings banks of the state
of New York have united ina petition to Con-
gress, which was presented yesterday by Sen.
ator Logan, urging the repeal of the law which
directs the coinage of the il2i9 grain silver
dollar. The petitioners submit that they hold
in trust for over 1861 900 persons their savings,
averaging about $50 for each depoStOr, and
aPgrcgating the sum of over si3700O,00O; that
ali the funds and property of the said savings
banks and all their earnings and accumula-
tions belong exclusively to their depositors,
chiefly industrious persons of small means. and
that the petitioners have no interest therein
except as custodians for said depostors. The
petitioners also say I'VE heartily agree with
the opinions expressed upon this subject by
the President of the United States In his re-
cent message, and we pray that 1t may please
Congress to enact that the said coinage be dis
continued. for the reason, among others, of
weight; that its continuance, unregulated by
the demands of trade or by the ability of the
circulation to absorb 1t, tends to sever our cur
rency from the gold standard, to compromise
the national credit, and to create distrust in
the minds of the people,"
