IMPORTANT CONFERENCE
or Democratic Leaders to Discuss Tariff
Revision.

Special Ttlegram TO ne Register.
WASHINGTON, February Senator
German, of Maryland, gave dinner last
night ostensibly in honor of ex-senator
Henry Il. Davis, of West Virginia, but in
reality tor the purpose of bringing together
a number of the most prominent leaders
on the Democratic side in Congress, to see
if some amicable compromise could not be
brought about, by which an agreement
could be reached in regard to the proposed
tariff legislation.
Among those present beside Mr.. Davis
were ex Speaker Randall and Congressman
William L. Scott, of Pennsylvania; Sena-
tor Kenua and Congressman William L.
Wilson, of West Virginia, and several
other members OF the Ways and Means
Committee and members of Congress. The
discussion lasted until after one O'Clock

ence could not be learned. All the gen
tlemen are reticent, but il is thought the
general interchange of views will accom-
plish much towards simplifying the work

SPECIAL 7siesrays 10 DAs Register.
CHARLESTON, February Nothing OF
startling interest has developed in the
border war to-day. Sensational reports
have been sent out to various papers to
the effect that Winchester rifles and am

large quantities to Pike county.
and that extensive preparations
were being made by the kentucky gang
for renewal OF the trouble. These stories
are generally considered TO be without
foundation. The Phillips band has broken
up and there is slight probability Of its
being reorganized again.
The Cincinnati Enquirer published
a lengthy article purporting to
be condensation of an
account CT the trouble appearing in the
Pitsburg Times that has excited great in
dignation in this place. The article is an
uni ust and dishonorsble reflection upon
the West Virginia parties, and is generally
denounced here where the trouble Is known.
Governor Wilson will send an
emissary to Frankfort tomorrow to meet
and confer with Governor Buckner in re-
TALON TO the trouble The nature Of the
conference is not yet known, but will be

IrI, possible that some of our friends In

Unjon bridge project under the supPositioD
that il will increase their taxes without be-
slowing corresponding benefits. This we
can snow them conClusiyely isan error. The
bridge. as terminals aud improvements,
when completed, will increase the valua'
tiou of the tax duplicates, in round num-
bers. about Sl,5UO,OOO This is nearly
ten l.er cent. OF the entire taxable
properly Of the county. Now, then,
as the city pays about fout-
6lths OF the taxes OF the county, 1t Is
seen at a glance that the increased burden
OF taxation, whatever it may be, is paid
by the city. whereas, by virtue of the in
crease Of IN per cent in the tax duplicates
the farmers taxes are reduced, IN
round numbers, i've per cent. Of
course, this is Approximate, but IN
auy event. with the increased valuation,
the taxes OF the county outside ol
the city, will be no mote with the bridge
than without it, and, il our calculation
approaches accuracy, will be considerably
less 80, that our country friends who are
in favor of this vast Improvement need not
be alarmed by the bug-a-bOo of increased
