New York, May 16.-The stock mar
ket was less active to-day, but strong
throughout after n weak opening and
prices advanced almost without a check,

rest of the list was of a hand to mouth
character and was chiefly professional.
Traders were inclined to be bearish, as
they always are on a dull market, but
many of them vent home tonight long of
stocks.
Governments dull and steady. Money
l(92 per cent. Mining shares dull.
Copper-Market dull. Lake, Sl6.65.
Petroleum opened steady at S6b, and
after first sales became strong and ad-
yanced to $50. A slight reaction then
occurred, after which the market advanced
on a sharp demand from some source to
S93, but reacted again and closed firm at
SSk. Total sales l,7S4, 900 barrels.

A very good quality of artificial ivory
can be manufactured from bones and the
hides of animals. The bones are
macerated and bleached In chloride of
lime for two weeks; then are heated
by steam together with the hides until
a fluid mass results, and to this a small
quantity of alum is added. After filter
ing the mass and drying in the air 1t Is
allowed to harden in an alum bath,
yielding white, tough plates, which
closely resemble ivory, and are more
easily worked than the natural product.

TRENTON, May 16.-Vice Chancellor
Bird Yesterday decided the case of the
Hutchins heirs against Henry George.
The clause in the will leaving Henry
George a bequest for the purpose of aid
ing him in the circulation of his peculiar
ideas and theories among people was de-
clared void. The point was made by the
contestants that it was neither a chant.
able, benevolent nor educational bequest.
The court said that George advocated
practices with respect to real estate in vio-
lation of the laws of the land and he
could not sanction the spreading of such
sentiment. The will was therefore
broken.

A Joint Discussion, or n Tusscl with the
Tariff.
Correspondence Of The In,,EIi0ncrr.
FRIENDLY, W. Va, August 95.-The
Union District Republican Convention
was held here to-day, also to organize
the Tariff Club. A large crowd assem-
bled, drawn here by the announcement
that Col. Jacob Kcmple would address
the people on the pending issue, the
tariff.
The tobacco packing house was filled
with an enthusiastic crowd, OF which at
least one.third were Democrats. This
was somewhat OF surprise until the
real object OF their presence became
known. Col. Kemple had gotten well
into his speech, warming up the boys to
lusty cheering, when committee rep
resentiug Col. Dan Johnson came into
the halland asked the chairman OF the
meeting il Col. Kemple would consent
to a division OF time with Col. Dan.
Col. Kemple said he only recognized
one great National issue, and he would
cheerfully divide time on that question:
as our present tariff system better for
all American interests, or that proposed
by the Mills bill?" After some pre-
liminary skirmishing, Col. Dan accepted
the terms, after requiring promise from
Col. Kemple'that he would not indulge
in personal ridicule or carricature.
Then the trouble began by Col. kGm-

Judge Thurman, Democratic nominee
for President, in his Port Huron
speech and again in his Chicago speech
insisted that duties arc always added to
the article and follow il through until at
last they are paid by the consumer.
This is the contention OF Free Traders
the world over. 1t is to be found in their
text books, in their speeches, wherever
they get a hearing. 1t is fundamental
proposition OF Free Trade. 1t must be
fairly met by Protectionists, or an essen
tial part OF their case is gone. 1t has
been met by Protectionists in England
as well as in America. 1t was met and
overthrown fifty years ago by the distin-
guished English Common Pleas Judge,
Byles.
1t was squarely and successfully met
in the House of Representatives on the
18th OF May last by no less Democrat
than Samuel j. Randall, to whom the
IxrELLIdENcER is glad to commit the
easy task Of demolishing the Democratic
nominee for Vice President.
In his Chicago, or Cheltonham Beach,
speech, Judge Thurman said:
The man who imports goods into the
United States pays the tariff taxes before
lie can take the 20 dis out OF the custom
house. OF course he adds that tax 10
what he paid for the goods, otherwise he
would be a dead failure, and he would
break up in u week, yes in day, in an
hour. So when you buy n roll Of cloth
for suit OF clothes, you pay in the
price that you give for 1t, the tax paid
by the importer that same tax with the
merchants profit, paid by the whole
sale merchant, that same tax with the
retailers profit paid by the relail mer.
chant, and the whole thing in the end
come out OF your pocket.
Mr.. Randall, in his speech of May
18th said;
Before proceeding to explain the prin-
ciples and provisions Of the bill which /
introduced, as it affects the tariff, will
stop to refer to a few OF the fundamen-
tai propositions which have been per-
sistentiy maintained throughout this de-
bate, and which appear to exercise a
controlling influence over the opinions
ofso many.

pay.

The choice of Hon. W. II. Fl. Flick for
Congress by the Republicans Of the Sec
ond district was another one OF those
acts OF wisdom which are distinguish
ing feature OF the Republican campaign
this year in West Virginia. Nostronger
man could have been named, and the
nomination is harbinger OF victory. 1t
was disagreeable surprise to the Dem
ocracy and they are panic stricken. They
have not forgotten the close call given
Mr.. Wilson by General Flick two years
ago.
With Gen. Flick and an .invincible
State ticket to add to his strength, the
Republicans of the Second district have
every reason to hope that this is the
year of their success, and FIAT they will no
longer be represented in Congress by an
enemy OF their interests. They will
speak for Protection at the polls.
1t is to be hoped Gen. tFliCk, who is
just recovering from long illness which
well nigh terminated fatally, will be
able to accept the nomination and make
the canvass. With the Protectionists of
the district fully aroused to the necessi-
ty OF rebuking Mr.. Wilson's course in
Congress, and his own great personal
popularity, there is little ground for
doubt that Gen. Flick will be elected.
His brilliant campaign OF two years ago
is still fresh in the minds OF the people,
and it will not require any great physical
effort on his part to rekindle the fire of
enthusiasm.

The State Fair which opens to-day has
had various hindrances to combat,
among them false reports to the effect
that the grounds had been damaged by
floods, and interruption OF the railroad
traffic, causing some inconvenience in
the receipt OF exhibits; but all this has
been surrounded, and the exhibition
which opens this morning bids fair to be
by all odds the most interesting ever
given by the association. The fairshould

pie taking the broad ground that the
Democratic party had opposed q high
tariff policy, and used history
10 prove his point, and proved concin-
Siveiy that the Republican party from its
birth 10 the present day had favored,
fOstcred, and stood by protection aud
home, industries, and American labor.
he then paid his respects to the Mills
bill, showed where its passage would
not only ruin the wool, pottery and
other Industries, but cripple every inter-
est in this country, protected by our
present tariff policy, and challenged Col.
johnson to prove to the three hundred
farmers there around him wherein free
wool would benefit them. This pro-
voked laughter and loud cheers.
Col. Kemple contras:ed the condi-
tons of the workingmen Of America
and those OF Europe, and in closing,
showed where petitions and committees
had gone TO Washington praying that
the "Nlills bill" should not pass and de-
fled Col. johnson to show where sim
Gle committee, either OF laboring men or
manufacturers, had asked or demanded
its passage.
lie closed his first speech by proving
cunclusively that European capital aud
manufacturers were using all influences
to sustain President Cleveland in his
position on that question, and to force
Free Trade upon the United States so as
to get control over her markets.
Colonel Dan then took the floor and
opened on Andrew Carnegie, Henry w.
oliver and the manufacturers OF the
United States generally, and attempted
to prove that because they had amassed
fortunes they had bred discomfort, pov:
erty and anarchy, and for al hour and
twenty-five minutes rallied and charged,
appealed to passion and prejudice, and
labored to prove that all the misfortunes
that had befallen the country in the last
twenty years, all the strikes and riots
were. traceable to this damnable tariff
system and producer OF monopoly. he
utterly failed to answer any Of the
propositions or points raised by Colonel
Kemple. He insisted that a bankrupt
treasury was preferable to surplus.
Here Colonel Kemple asked him If he
was in perfect accord with his party on
this question, from the Presidents mes
sage last December including the "Mills
bill" and theSt. Louis platform. Colonel
johnson answered, 81 am most heartily"
Col. Kemple said: "that is all, Col.
johnson. simply wanted to put you
on record in the event that your party
make you its nominee for Congress, and
pledge you to all can to crafty your
ambitioni in that direction. Then hope
to have the pleasure OF meeting you fire.
quently between that and election"
When Col. Kemple took the floor
again there was but twenty-five minutes
remaining until train time, but for tif.
teen minutes he poured the hot shot
into Col. Dan and made the fire fly al
every shot.
Col. Kemple then retired amid the
cheers and thanks OF the crowd.
