the full report, emitting the names of
the dead: "We believe that the cause
OF the explosion was, first, that
the boilers were not sufficiently strong
to carry one hundred pounds of steam
per square inch of the surface. We
believe that boilers intended for the
use Of fluid fuel should be differently
constructed and of a more different
type to those used on board the
Julia. We further believe that while
we are not prepared to say that the
use of fluid as fuel was the primary
cluse of the explosion, we do believe
that it added largely to the loss Of life
after the explosion had occurred by
instantaneously enveleping the whole
OF the central or midship part of the
boat in flames, thereby preventing
the escape Of those who were unfor-
tunate enough to be in that part of
the boat, or allowing any efforts
from the outside to save them
from death. We believe that those
who were responsible for the employ
ment of the fireman employed, did
tlOU uoc pIOpcT care III bll6 S6l6ClIOn Oh
one to fire with liquid fuel. for we be-
lieve that the one who was on duty
at the time of the explosion, was
not fully qualified for the
position. We further believe
that the United States local
inspector of boilers was careless and
negligent in the discharge of his
duties in not making himself familiar
with the thickness and quality OF the
iron from which the boilers of the
Julia were constructed. We condemn
the habit of giving certificate for
thickness of metal greater than it
really is. We need 90 no further
than his own testimony given before
this jury on Wednesday evening,
March 2lst, when. in answer to
question from juror, he stated that
had he known the real thickness of
the iron in the boilers he would
not have given certificate
allowing pressure Of 10 pounds per
square inch. We further believe that
petroleum is dangerous compound
when used as liquid fuel, and we be-
lieve that its use should be prohibited
by law on all steam passenger or ferry
boats ~

WASHINGTON, March 26.-It is

The Republican Senators had cau-
Gus this morning pending the Bond bill,
and the Stewart amendment provided
the chief topic OF discussion, but no
decision was reached. Another eau

meantime the committee will under

were made during the caucus to re-

apparent effect. An effort was made
to secure a unanimous agreement to
favor Palmer's motion to recommit
the Bond bill, but several silver men
refused to assent to this proposition.

A Debate ON n Question of Esi-
quettc-Witty Speeches.
Enloe reported adversely resolu-
ton calling upon the Postmaster Cen
eral for information as to what instruc-
tions had been given subordinate Off
GERS of the Postoffice Department, in
tending to prohibit American citizens
from using the United States mails on
the same terms as Canadian citizens
living in the same vicinity and COM
peting in business. He said the reso-
luton reflected upon the Postmaster
General by drawing the inference that
he had violated the law.
Allen,. of Massachusetts, thought
the spectacle of one of the majority Of
the Committee of the House bringing
in an adverse report upon a
resolution asking official information
of the head OF a great department of
the Government was unique. He
did not think that the House would
endorse an adverse report.
Blount had no objection to the
House receiving all the information
on the subject it desired, but he pro-
tested against the disrespectful
language Of the pending resolution
which would be regarded as insulting
if used by the Executive Department
in addressing Congress.
Peters, of Kansas, wished to amend
the resolution by striking out the
words which were considered to re fleet
upon the department, but was not per-
mitted to present his amendment.
The resolution was tabled--yeas, 125 /:
nays, 122. ,.5a Fs-
Randall moved to reconsider the
vote. Lost-yeas, 1913 nays, l27.
The bill was reported to prohibit
aliens from acquiring title to mining
lands within the United States. En-
tered on the House calendar.
The House then went into Com
mittee Of the Whole on the Indian
Appropriation bill.
Nelson, OF Minnesota, took adj
vantage OF the general debate to
speak upon the tariff question. He
quoted the Republican platform de-
claring in favor of reduction in the
tariff at an early day, and added,
amidst the laughter and applause OF
the Democrats, "and now, my
friends, is the appointed time"
Funston, of Kansas, attempted to
put some questions to Nelson, but
the latter remarked that the gentle
man could have the floor to himself,
and took his seat. The committee
then arose and the House adjourned.

THE TARIFF.
How to Prevent Accumulation
i'm the Treasury.


LOUISVILLE, KY. March 29.-The
Comier-Journals Washington special
gives long extracts from the majority
report of the Committee on Ways and
Means On the tariff bill. 1t says
there are only two ways to prevent
excessive accumulation in the Treas
ury-reduce taxation or raise expendi-
lures. There is but one safe course,
the reduction Of taxation to the neces-
sary requirements of the Government.
In the progressive growth Of
our manufactures We have reached
the point where capacity to
produce is in excess of the require
ments of home consumption. As a
consequence, many mills are closed
and many are running on short
time. The prohibitory tariffs sur
round the country with lines
of investment and prevent relief from
without, while trusts, combinations
and pools plunder the people within.
What is the remedy for this wrong
More extended markets for the sale of
our products and constant and act
i've competition in business. With
the markets of the world open to us
cur manufacturers may run their
mills on full time, give constant en-
ployment to laborers with steadily in
creasing wages, create active and con-
stant demand for raw materials re-
quired in manufacturing, which will
stimulate, promote and reward the
wool growers and the producers Of
cotton, hemp, flax, hides, ores and
other materials.
In starting out on this policy we
have transferred many articles from
the dutiable to the free list. The
revenues now received on these
articles amount to $22, 189, ,505. Three.
fourths of this amount is collected on
articles that enter into manufactures
of which wool and tin plates are the
most important. The repeal o.
all duties on wool enables III
to reduce duties on manufacturer
Of weol. There is no greater, neeG
for duty ON wool than for duty on any
other raw material. We have put
wool ON the free list to enable p,
manufacturer to obtain foreign wool

If It is true that committees have

HONEST MISTAKES.

The few mistakes made by Cleveland
were honest ones committed with good
intent; but they operated against him
and his party as much as if they had
been perpetrated maliciously. 1t will
be remembered that at the beginning
of his term the President said the col
ored citizens should be recognized, and
he appointed many of them to ofic e
less because they were qualified for the
places than for the reason that they
were colored. He wanted to show that
he regarded the colored people as c:ti
zens in the fullest sense, and entitled to
all the rights, privileges and considera.
ton accorded IL whites. 1t cannot be
denied that his course in this matte T
offended a good many people who
rightly regard this generation of ne
groes as the inconvertible enemies to
the Democratic party. Nor did it help
matters any when it transpired, as it
did, that in most instances the blacks
were Incompetent, and were unable TO
perform their duties as intelligently as
whites would have done. Mr.. Cleve-
lands intention was all right, but
his action was mistake, for
whenever he appointed a negro to
an Office he deprived white man of a
place to which he was entitled by right
of intelligence, if not as a reward for
his political service. At the late cleo
ton the blacks showed how they appre.
ciated Cleveland's recognition by al
most without exception voting for the
candidate. The Golorcd
people of New York and Indiana car
ried those States for Harrison, and if
West Virginia has been taken over to
the enemy the blacks have done it.
There are many of Cleveland's mis-
takes, made with the purest of motives, |
which injured him and helped to bring |
defeat to his party. If he had been
more of politician it would have been
better for himself, for the Democracy |
and for the country.
