A Voice on the TariK.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, June 13.-The
Amalgamated Association placed
itself on record to-day on the tariff
question. The Tariff Committee ap.
pointed several days ago has been
carefully weighing the matter before
drawing up any resolutions, and at
the forenoon session of the Conven-
ton they were presented. They were
received with general favor and some
slight changes were made in them
The corrected resolutions are as fol.
lows:
WHEREAS, There has been intro.
duced and now under discussion be.
fore Congress a bill known as the
Mills bill, for the reduction of the
present tariff on customs, and there.
by put check on the prosperity OF
our beloved country in favor of for
elgn countries, especially England
and whereas, we as Workingmen
know that any reduction on the
present tariff would menace the
wages of those who earn their living
by the sweat of their brow; and
whereas, there is joy among the ill
paid workingmen of Europe, JOY
among the members of the English
Golden Club because they hope to
obtain control of the market of this
Republic; therefore, as representa-.
lives OF the iron and steel workers of
the United States in convention as
sembled. representing New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
West Virginia, Kentucky. Indiana,
Illinois. Missouri, Wisconsin, Ala
barna and other States in this Union,
be it.
Resolved, That we are in favor of
the sentiment. "America for Ameri-
cans" native and natura lied, and we
endorse the words of Daniel Webster,
who, 81 years ago, said if the people
can obtain fair compensation for their
labor they will have good houses,
good clothing, good food and the
means of educating their children.
Labor will be cheerful and the PEG.
pie happy.
Resolved, That in our judgment the
citizens and industries of this country
cannot be protected in any better way
than by placing protective tariff on
all articles imported from other coun-
tries that can be produced by our own
people, in order that those who pro.
duce them may be better able to de-
mand that to which, as citizens and
upholders of this government, they
are justify entitled to-an equitable
share of the profits of their toll to
maintain their families in decency {:
that they may be able to educate
their children and teach them, as
they advance toward manhood, to de-
fend the principles of our system of
government.
RESOLVED, That we are most en-
phatically opposed to any reduction
of the present tariff, and hereby ex.
press our unqualified condemnation
of the provisions of the Mills bill,
believing as we do that its adoption
as law would be detrimental to the
interests of the American working
men. and we respectfully call upon
our representatives in Congress to
vote against it.

Review OF Trade,

NEW YORK, June 15.-R. G. Dun
d Co.'s review of trade for week end
ing Saturday, June IS, has this:
The moderate improvement in
trade noticed a week ago does not
yet seem to be more than the slight
reaction which occasionally breaks a
period of uncertainty and COMPARE
tive inactivity. The signs of last.
ing improvement in trade do not yet
appear. Uncertainty still prevails
and buyers are conservative, confin-
ing their transactions to immediate
wants in most branches of business.
In some, moreover, the cold and wet
spring has so far curtailed trade that
retailers are carrying over stocks
larger than usual. There is uncer-
tainty about the tariff and its effect
upon many branches of manufacture,
about the crops and the foreign de-.
mand for exportabIe products. about
transportation rates in the near fu-
ture, and about financial prospects.
Crop prospects have not changed
for the worse, but the extent of the
loss in winter wheat is more def.
nitely realized, while the prospects
as to spring wheat and other crops
are necessarily vague. With favor
able weather the general results
would probably be fair in some quar-
tiers decidedly hopeful feeling be-
gins to prevail. Want of confidence
in the future is the prevailing tone in
all the markets. This cannot be at
tributed to financial influences, for
money is overabundant, and quoted
at l per cent here Notwithstanding
the renewal of gold exports. The
treasury has raised its prices paid for
bonds taking large amount of the
dav. but the only considera BILE efforts
since have been $2,OO0,000 at an
eighth above its new limit for fOurs
and a like amount three-eights above
the limit for AIS. There is growing
impression that bonds will not be
forthcoming at acceptable figures as
1t becomes important for the treasury
to make large disbursements.
The iron trade mauifests no inn
provement, though the sales of $4,000
tons Of steel rails are reported for $50
at the mill and the allotment is said
to be disregarded by some Eastern
makers. Southern pig is quoted at
SIT for No. 1, but the quality is not
in all cases found satisfactory. Bar
iron is weaker with S1.75 to $l.80
quoted for large lots of best refined.
In the dry goods business there is
lack of activity and yet in cotton
goods more confident feeling with
print clothes higher at 3.87 and low
grades of bleached goods very firm.
Woolens are still dull with very good
transactions for mems goods. and
wool is quoted lower at Chicago.

st. Louis Globe Democrat.
The parties in New York were so
evenly balanced in 1884 that the
Democratic plurality was just LOAF.
In no State has Mr.. Cleveland de-
clined 80 much in popularity in the
past three years as he has in New
York. But apart from the antagonism
to him of thousands of those who
gave him their support in 1884, the
number of new voters who will join
the party of his opponents this year
will undoubtedly be great enough to
give the Republicans a safe majority
in the Empire State.

HOMEOPATHY. - 3077 patients
were treated at Wards Island Hos
pital, n. Y, in 1876; the death rate
was 6.07 per cent and the cost of med
icine 433 cents. During same year
1851 patients were treated al BeIIvue
Hospital. N. Y, with death rate Of
1908 and cost of medicine per patient
S1.46. At Wards Island the treat
ment is Homeopathic, at the last il
is not. Surely these official figures
should open peoples eyes to the folly
of ignoring Homeopathy, the only
school of medicine in the world

He is necessary now. Too old in

weak and infirm in 1883 to be either
associate justice or chief justice of the
Supreme court. he is still strong

young enough to be inaugurated

RAILROAD EARNINGS AND STOCK DEALINGS.

TUESDAY, Jan. 3l-P. VI.
Including those printed below, TIE TRIBUNE
now has published the gross earnings OF hftyfour
railroads for the third week in January, giving az
aggregate of SO, 696,555, against 81, 81 ,765,
gain of 3.13 per cent over the same week in sS7,
when the returns of the companies then reporting
showed gain on the week of $50 Of over Id
per cent. Considering the delay OF traffic be-
cause of snow and ice bockades, not only on rail
roads but also on Western highways, the last week
is making as favorable q comparison as any week
in the last two months.
The Stock Exchange markets to-day lapsed into
dulness The sales of stocks aggregated only
l3335O shares and Of that IL is safe to say fully
90 per cent was the n-and-out operations OF trad
ers, which simply mean the profit or loss TO
traders of part of the fractional changes IN iig-
ures The sentiment OF such speculation as tiere
was Was bearshly inclined and hence In the dull
ness prices tended that way. The Gould railways
