as to prohibit importation altogether; but that is the other end of the road, which in- creases the taxes paid to private persons If the first method of reduction leads to free trade the ether leads to free plumber, which Is worse.
 Free wool is discussed, and the minority is firmly convinced that besides the incalcu- lable advantage to the whole country which would result from the placing of wool upon the free list, it is easily demonstra be that no class will suffer, but that each will reap his share of the benefit If the tax be taken off wools, our manufacturers at once become bidders for wool against the foreign manu- facturer, and as a certain consequence the price will rise, and this will operate doubly against the foreign manufacturer. He will buy his wools dearer, and meet untaxed in our markets corresponding grades. We would import more wools, of course, and ill no other way great factories pros per, because their capacity is beyond our own wool production.
 They close the report by recommending to the senate and the country the Mills bill as a measure for the reduction of taxes, based alike on justice and good policy.
 The minority report is signed by Senators Harris, Vance, Voorhees, and McPherson; the last named qualifying his indorsement of the report with this statement: II concur in the report indorsing the house bill in respect to articles placed upon the free list, but de sire some notifications ill the dutiable list"

Wiinan Has to Explain
His Recent Letter Raises a
 Breeze in Canada.
MIR. SHERMAN ON ANNEXATION.

Erastus Wiman Says His Information Came from Such an Undoubted Source He Deemed it His Duty to Break the News to Canada-Union Far in Future. TORONTO, Oct. 5.-Mr Erastus Wiman, whose announcement to the Canadian press last Saturday that he was informed that the senate committee on foreign relations were considering proposition for the annexation of Canada, created such fiutter throughout Canada makes an explanation which is pub hshed. Mir. Wiman says that the informa- tion came to him from such an undoubted source, and was deemed by him of such im- portance that he deemed it his duty to send the dispatch. Mir. Wiman also makes public a letter he wrote to John Sherman and the latter's reply.
 The letter requested Mr. Sherman to read an enclosed interview with Mir. Wiman, pre- pared by the latter at the request of Blakely Hall, and published ill last Sundays New York Sun, and adding that while the scheme for the annexation of Canada was a bold and masterful policy from United States point of view he was thoroughly convinced that 1t would fail, because the people of Canada would not accept it-it would be strongly opposed and many would bitterly resent it.
 Mr. Sherman's reply was as follows:
 COMMITTEE ON FOREIGN RELATIONS,
 UNITED STATES SENATE,
 WASHINGTON, Oct 8. ]
 My DEAR SIR-Your note of the 30th is received. Your opinions are certainly en- titled to great weight and will receive full consideration. My own opinion has been for many years that political union between tho United States and Canada was inevitable, and that statesmen and patriots ought tD look to bringing this about peacefully, upon terms of perfect equality, and so as to pro mote the interests of both countries.
 As to commercial union, see no practical way to bring it about We will have ample time to think of this, as the subject matter will not again be brought up in the senate until next session. Very truly yours, JOHN SHERMAN

A Famous Novelist's Arithmetic.

In Dickens Christmas number, 'Dr. Mari gold's Prescriptions" one of the tales, "To be Taken in Water," describes the adventure of q clerk who was travelling through France in charge of "a quarter of million" in specie. He had it Gin two iron boxes, inclosed in leather.to look like samples" The French porters seem to have noticed that the boxes were heavy, but managed them we'll enough, two porters to each box. My copy of ''Dr Marigold" has a marginal annotation by an impatient reader, 'Bosh! quarter of a mil lion in gold coin would weigh upward of two tons" The calculation does not seem to be quite accurate, but it would weigh about one ton seventeen hundredweight, avoirdupois. thief who got at the boxes is described in the story as stopped ill making his way out of a window with carpet bag half full of sovereigns. The annotator reckons again, from the description of the bag, that it must have weighed five hunCsredweight One wonders that errors so easily noticeable es- capped the sharp editorial eye of Charles Dickens.-Notes and Queries

MIR. BeCk'S REPORT.
He Thinks the New Bill Favors the Rich
 More Than the Poor.

He Thinks the New Bill Favors the Rich
 More Than the Poor.
 Senator Beck in his individual report on the tariff bill, says that the struggle of the majority of the committes on finance seems to be, and its effect certainly is, to close our ports as far as possible to commerce from abroad, and surrender to other nations the commerce of the outside world, and subject our exports to such extortions in freight charges as combinations of foreign ship own CTS may see fit to exact
 Continuing, he argues that the attempt of committee to restore specific instead of ad valorem rates means that the goods used by the poor shall be taxed out of all propor tion to those used by the rich. The pretenses upon which high tariff are now demanded will be as strong, he says, fifty years hence as they are at present It is no longer infant industries that are clamoring. The manu- lecturers are stalwart giants now The bills now presented by the respective political or ganizations, continues MT. Beck, are infin- itely more important in the principles they represent than in the amount of taxation they propose to remove, measured merely in money.
 Referring to the presidents message he says: If any president ever satisfied the American people that he subordinated pri- vate ends to public interests and had the courage to express convictions regardless of personal consequences, President Cleveland in this message has satisfied them that he has acted with an eye single to the public good. It will be striking evidence of the power of employers over their workingmen if they sue ceed in making them believe that their vel fare enters into the contest to be waged. The struggles made by their leaders, Gen. Harri- son included, to flood the country with Chi nese, sending money to China and importing 10000 of them at time, as the managers of the Central Pacific railroad did, give the lie to all their professions of sympathy with high priced American labor"
 Neither Mir. Carnegie nor any of the sub sidized band, says MT. Beck, can delude the American people.
 Continuing, he says that the presidents message and the house bill were both emi- nently conservative. The senate bill, in the wool, cotton and other schedules, not only increased the rate of tax, but did it in the form of compound and specific duties, so as to conceal the increases. The cotton schedules were simply outrageous. MT. Beck says he is glad the committee has gone to the extreme of protection, restriction and destruction.
 Concluding, he condemns the cotton bag ging trusts as tariff creation

The Flavor of Mutton.

The question that has long troubled butch ers-viz, what causes the wool taste in nut ton?-is again the subject of much discussion among the fraternity, The American Public Health association recently stated that the touch of the woolly coat upon the dressed flesh imparted wool taste, and that there was a very noticeable difference in the flavor of mutton taken from sheep which has been for some time deprived of all excess in its woolly coat and that taken from a sheep which has heavy fleece The Hon. Cassius NJ. Clay, of Kentucky, who is recognized authority in matters relating to sheep raising, contends that the association is wrong. He recommends butchers to starve the sheep for twenty -four hours before killing, and then to cut the throat all around to the bone, allow ing free flow of blood. The sheep should then be dressed at once The flesh will then be found perfectly sweet and without any perceptible wool taste.-Chlcago News.

Americas Fruit Industry.

No industry in America has grown faster than the fruit industry. No matter how fast the gardens and orchards are planted, the demand increases faster than the supply. What is better, the bulk of consumption is by the laboring classes. The costly Califor- nia products go to the tables of the rich, but the poorer classes not only eat abundantly of home products, but of the orange and banana We even know of small clubs of laboring men who send south club orders for choice oranges. A large wholesale dealer re- ports that his orders from one small town of mill operatives are nearly S2000 for fruits and vegetables in year. There are two sides to the sanitary problem-one the re- moval of filth and poison, the other the fur nishing of health inspiring foods, especially fruits Globe be-Democrat
