Answers Reed, OF Maine, In tho House
Yesterday.
WAsHIsGToN, June 29.-The House
went into committee of the whole on the
Mills bill. Mr.. Adams moved to strike
out the clause fixing the rate of duty on
refined glycerine "a cents pound. This
led to a long discussing. In the course Of
which Mr.. Reed, of Maine, criticised what
he called the attempt of the sjority Of
the ways and Means Committee TO mislead
the country by the statements made as to
the effect the bill would have upon reye-
nue., He stated that the minority had
wished to obtain definite information from
the Treasury Department upon the subject,
but their request to that effect had been
denied.
Mr.. Wilson, of West Virginia, said that
the gentleman from Maine had criticised
the Committee on Ways and Means for
not having obtained more trustworthy in
formation as to the effect of the bill. OF
course no man could conjecture what the
irnportations would be through any year
and the only estimate that could be made
must be based upon what the revenue of
the past year would have been bad the
rates of duty proposed by the bill been
correct. In the Forty.seventh Congress
Mr.. .Ksssy had charge Of the tariff bill and
had said that he did not believe any one
could guess or estimate what the reduc-
ton of revenue would be.
Mr.. Adams amendment was rejected
and the committee arose.

NEW YORK, June 29.-Chairman Bar

He arrived at $50 o'clock last night
from Washington, and is accompanied by
Col. John G. Pfather, Of st. Louis, who

E. B. Dickinson, of the National Commit
tee.
Mr.. Barnum and party are stopping at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel, and the primal
object of their visit is to select suitable
headquarters for the Democratic National
Committee. Before leaving Washington
yesterday, Chairman Barnum had a con-
ference with President Cleveland which, is
supposed, related to the coming canvass
and the composition of the Campaign Com
mittee.
When asked to-day about the opening Of
the campaign, Mr.. Barnum said: 'We
have not as yet agreed upon the date. We
have not decided where to locate our head
quarters in this city. Several houses that
may be well adapted in point of arrange
ment have been suggested, but so far no
selection has been made.
''The campaign work Of our committee
will begin as soon as possible after we have
selected headquarters. The names of the
members who may be placed on the COM
mittee are not yet completed. Possibly
to morrow the list will be finished. l DO
not question the election of Cleveland and
Thurman, for the Republican National
ticket is not strong one, and their plat
form will not deceive the public"

from year ago and from the confident ex-

To very many traders who bought

rassmeDt, and to this cause is mainly due
the increase noted during recent months in

LOUISVILLE, June 80. - In the course of
his speech last night at the great Demo-
cratic ratification meeting held here, Mr..
watterson said of the Republican platform:
"The issue forced upon tbs country by the
Republicans is not one of protection
against free trade. Let no protectionist
delude himself. If there be any, however,
who seeks to precipitate free trade, literally
to burn down the factories and blow up
the custom houses, he should support the
Republican ticket and bid God speed to its
prompt application and rigid enforcement,
because if its terms could be carried ont in
good faith it would culminate in such a
glut Of an already oversupplied home mar
ket, aud such consequent loss OF employ
ment to the American operative rs would
surely bring the whole ediice down upon
its authors, achieving by command Of the
mob that which this party Of demsgogues.
living from hand to mouth, refuses by its
policy of obstruction to commit to the Gus
tody of statesmen. But it cannot be car
ried out. 1t knows those who have pro-
claimed it too we'll to believe them capable
of thinking they can carry it out or of in
tending to try to carry it out. 1t is but
trick issue trumped up for present pur-
pose. II those who have oontIived
it secure yet another delay and with
it another lease Of power. So much is clear
gain, and they will take their chances of
evading the plan it embraces when they get
into power, for, as I said, they have no idea
of attempting to carry it out.
knowing as well as that to do so
would be to precipitate en- irresistible free

ii, proclaim it, if there be an impatient
free-trader anywhere, let him givehis days

will carry Indiana" he said. "I've Just
been figuring on it, and here is the way it
looks to me: There are about 500, 900
voters in Indiana. Two hundred and forty
thousand of them are Democrats, 234, 900
are Republicans, and %, 900 floating, made
up of Greenbackers, Prohibitionists and
Labor men. To carry the State Harrison
must get 5000 more of these floating votes
than we do, and he cannot do it. The
Greenbackers are opposed to him. There are
10, 900 Of them in the State, and Harrison
will not get over 1000 out of them all.
The laboriDg men are cold toward him,
and the Prohibitionists, of course, are

''It is strong ticket. Ben Harrison is

saying anything against him. He has fair
ability, and he is al excellent representa-

by arms the railroad strikes of 1877, and
with having then, in speech in the City

charge against General Harrison is that in
the conference with the strikers he made
use Of some expression to the effect that "a
dollar day was enough for workingmen,"
and that aiterward he was eager to sup
the strike with arms, and declared that
the strikers ought to be shot without
