versatlon turned upon the financial
condition OF the farmers Of the State.
One OF the party remarked that be
believed there was a county In
Georgia in which there was not q
single farm under mortgage. The
statement was questioned, and the
name of the county was asked. 4

Clerk OF the Superior Court OF Lib,
erty county was on the train. lie
was summoned, and when the qnes-
ton was put TO him declared that
there was not a real estate mortgage
on record in his office. a county
which is entirely agricultural, and
yet has evaded tie clutches of the

TARIFF DEBATE IN THE SENATE
GLASSWARE AND METAL
SCHEDULES UNDER DISCUSSION.

SCHEDULES UNDER DISCUSSION.
Washington, Dec. 6.-Thc Senate to-day resumed
the consideration OF the Tariff BILL beginning with
schedule b, which covers earthcnware and glassware
Mr.. Mcpherson said that he believed that the pro-
visions In both bills prevent differentiation would
result in Increasing the protection on glass and
pottery ware moro than ten per cent His own state
was largely interested in those industries, but no
did not believe that they needed the amount OF pro-
lection proposed The Mills bill accorded to them all
the protection thoy needed. Ho reserved the right
to offer amendments hereafter to the glass and
pottery items. Mr. Hoar also reserved the right to
offer some amendments to the glass paragraphs
Mr.. Plumb called attention to the paragraph as
svered glass and said that such glass was large
" used BY furniture manufacturers and almost
entirely Of foreign mako, because the silverins of
such glass in the United States was not durable The
duty he SAID added So 80 to tho cost Of bureau,
and II the article not mado here no did not sec
why the duty should not DO reduced.
Mr.. Allison did not know why such glass could not
be properly svered in the United States, and sus'
gested that might be account of the duty being
too ow-it being only equal to ton per cont ad valom
The Senate substitute did not inoreaSe that ratio.
No amendment, except as to two formal changes
Of phraseology, made to Schedule B, and tho
Senate proceeded to the consideration Of Schedule O,
relating 70 metals.
Mr.. Plumb called attention 10 tho paragraph as to
BEAMS grde and joists spoke Of tho iron and steel
combinations In this country, and moved to amend
by reducing the rate from Lilo cents per pound TO
$40 cent.
Mr. Harris moved to amend the amendment by FIX
ing the rate at 6-1o cent per pound
Mr.. Allison opposed Mr.. Harriss amendment, say,
ine that II went the root of the whole Iron and
steel schedule. He had no doubt that IL The present
rate of duty were maintained the competition wonlo
be sufficient in a shor: time to break down the prices
Mr.. Aldrich also opposed Mr.. Harris's amendment
and remarked that there was one item In the House
bin more ndefensible than any other It was the rate
OF sixenths Of a cent per pound on tho structural
forms Of iron and, steel
Tho discussion was continued by Senators Adrich,
Harris, Hoar Butler, Plumb and Payne; but no vote
was taken on the pending amendment, and the bill
was laid aside-ths progress during the day being
about eight pages.
