Consul Smith, at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, has
made report to the Secretary of State in re-
gard to ship building in Great Britain, from
which it appears that the tonnage built during
1887 was 27S, 900, most of which was of craft
for special trades. The tonnage was 1O5, 600
greater than in the previous year. The Consul
says that the cheapness of the cost of construc-
ton helped to increase the demand for vessels,
and that the vessels now being built are of bet
ter type, the material being of a more enduring
character, and the engines being capable of
working with more economy. The consul also
says:
ssMost of the vessels on the stocks are of
large carrying capacity. An important fact
affecting the prospects of ship building is that
the number Of vessels lying idle, especially
steamships, is very small Between thirty and
forty vessels are now in process of construc-
ton on the Tyne, the completion of which is
being energetically pushed forward. fact
which favors ship building Is that for some
time past the tonnage of the United Kingdom
and its colonies has been diminishing. The re-
turns of the Register General show that there
were removed from the registries by loss and
sale during the year 1887 491 600 tons and that
there were added to the same 100000. showing
decrease Of 81 900 TONS"

Low Tariff, Low Wages.

The Belgian and other foreign iron workers
are flooding the United States with circulars
showing their ability to furnish goods at figures
which will close up all our iron mills. This is
an extract from Belgian prospectus:
'Wth the prospect of a reduction in duties
on agricultural iron and steel in your country
ages in prices and quality that you will find a
nice profit in importing from u.s."
This is how they propose to do it. These Bel
gians pay their puddlers 81 per day and their
helpers from S2 to SO cents. In Pittsburg pud.
dlers receive SO IS per day and helpers 81 80
This difference in wages enables the Belgians
to offer in New York an iron beam for $56 81

TARIFF AND TRUSTS.

One Of the questions which have
|arisen out Of the tariff discussion
is that Of the relation between
tariff duties, and trusts or com,
bines.
The bills recently introduced
by Mr.. Breckenridge seem to indi,
cate that the honorable gentleman
is one Of those who views the ex,
istenee Of the present tariff and
the various trusts as 30 inter.
twined, that the removal Of The
first, or at least its modification
would have a disastrous effect up.
on the latter.
But it is argued by others, that
the one does not affect the other,
in other words that trusts are pos.
sible independent Of the tariff.
Instances are given where com.
modities upon which there are nc
duties, or are so light as to make
them comparatively free, have
fallen into the clutch Of the mon.
opoly and held at prices dictated
by the monopolists.
The Pioneer Press takes this
ground and cites The case Of coffee.
It shows that although there is
absolute free trade in coffee, mon.
opoly has still Succeeded in es.
tablishing a control over supply
sufficiently complete to manipu-
late prices at will We partially
admit the force Of this argument.
Monopoly is possible in any com
modify which has a commercial
value.
The stability Of the ground ia.
ken may be manifested by refer.
ence to the corners obtained upon
our domestic products and mainly
upon provisions.
So long as there is ample capital
in the hands Of an unscrupulous
few, monopoly will obtain, and
this too, perhaps, in spite Of high
taft, low tariff or free trade.
But the concessions made in the
same article also indicate that the
tariff reformer has good reason for
the position he takes, which is,
that he can consistently occupy
himself with trust reform at the
same time that he seeks to effect
a modification Of our tariff laws.
| It is admitted that "a trust man.
aged industry should feel the knife
of revenue reduction, before an
industry in which the force oil
competition is allowed free play"
But in oul view it is not, Incl.
dentally that a tariff reformer will
take cognizance Of trust opera.
TONS He must proceed with de.
Hibernate purpose, and make direct
war upon monopoly whether il
possess in the guise Of trusts, com,
bines, or other form.
In the relation which these or.
CARNATIONS stand to protected
commodities, they must be attack.
ed, and although they may not be
entirely destroyed BY tariff reduc'
ton, they can still be shorn Of The
