MoNOPoLIsT RANDALL.
His New Tariff Bill all in the Interest
of the Trusts.

WASHINGTON, March 12.-Mr. Randall
looking very nervous to-day introduced his
bill for the protection of trusts in the
House. 1t was referred to the Committee
on Ways and Means, where it will be de-
Gently inferred never again to see the light
of day. Its proposed reductions are all in
the interest of the internal revenue, of
which S70,000,000 is cut off the
whole amount of reduction in
revenue believed by any one
here to be necessary in order to prevent a
surplus The tariff provisions of the bill,
which Mr.. Randall says decrease the
revenue S25, 900. 900, will actually increase
it probably by half that amount Mr.
Hewitts administrative features, which he
appropriates from Mr.. Mills bill, alone in
creases the revenue from $4,000, 900 to
S15,000,000.
IN THE INTEREST OF THE TRUSTS.
The tariff provisions are designed to main
tain the sugar trusts, the wool trust and all
the other existing trusts, and to encourage
the formation of tin-plate trust by doub-
ling the duty on tin-plate. The free list is a
humbug like The alleged tariff reduction. The
other conspicuous feature of the bill is the
reduction of the whisky tax nearly one-half
This prevents it from receiving the support
of a majority Of the Republicans, VINO don't
want free whisky ana WHO don't want free
sugar. Chairman Mills summed up tho
opinions of the revenue reformers when he
said to-day: Eve could not ask better
bill to oppose. 1t is simply Mr.. Randall's
scheme to abolish all internal taxes. The
first blow abolishes two thirds of them. At
the second blow you may rest assured he
would abolish the rest.
NOT REDUCTIONS.
1.-THE tariff reductions are not reductions,
but on the contrary increase the duty. On
tin plate the increase is more conspicuous
than on the rest, but it is representative
In other words Mr.. Randalps bill reduces
or abolshes the taxes on the luxuries of life
and keeps them on the necessities, including
the raw materials necessary for our manu-
facturers. We are willing to go
before the House and the country on
the issue so made with our bill. The tariff
provisions of Mr. Randalrs bill are skill
fully wrought into the existing law, the
whole framework of which is Incorporated
in the bill The work is 50 skillfully done
as to reflect a certain amount of credit on
the ingenuity of Joseph D. Weeks, Secre-
tary of the Republican Committee in 1884,
who framed it,

MADEATOY OF ATORPED0
TWO BOYS LEAN TEE FOLLY OF
THE CUSTOM.

One Loses a Finger and the Others
Bonds to be Floated by Street Rail-
way-Death of the Niece of Georgia's
First Historian.
ATLANTA, GA. March 12.-About noon
to-day two little boys were playing with
railroad torpedo, when it exploded, and both
boys were injured, one of them receiving
wounds which may prove fatal. The boys
are Claude Allen, son of a car Inspector of
the Western and Atlantic railroad, and
Charles Tay, son of John H. Tay. The
accident occurred at the private school of
Miss Mamie Allen, No 115 East Fair
street. The children were playing with the
torpedo, one of them holding it while the
other hammered upon it with a rock. The
torpedo exploded, tearing off finger on
Claude Aliens right hand and injuring
Charlie Tay in the side and hip. The
wounds of the latter are very serious and it
is thought they may result fatally.
STREET RAILROAD BONDS.
The stockholders of the Metropolitan
Street Railroad Company held meetin1
to-day and decided to float per cent. bonds
the stockholders The money will be used
to pay off former mortgage and to make
improvements In the road by the purchase
of steam dummies.
THREE DAMAGE SUITS
Three damages suits were filed to-day for
$25, 900 each in the United States Circuit
Court against the Richmond and Danvile
railroad. The plaintiffs are w. II. Wilson,
j. T. Killian and 5. N. Dykeman, and they
sue on account of injuries received by tuem
while acting as postal clerks on the road on
Oct 20 last in an accident that occurred be-
tween Taylor and Greers, s. C.. The acct
dent was caused by the collision of pas
senger train with freight.
DEATH AT AN ADVANCED AGE.
This morning, at o'clock, Mrs. j. II.
