DISCUSSING THE TARIFF.
TO BE II MORE DAYS OF DEBATE IN
THE HOUSE.
The Time TO he Equally Divided Between
the Two Parties -- Several Speeches
Made by the Democrats Miss
EDdicott to Marry Chamberlain.

WASHINGTON, April 26.-The House
went into the committee of the whole on
the tariff bill. Mr.. Bynum of Indiana
supported the bill aud declared it was no
LONGER possible to put off a reduction The
bill did not meet his unqualified approval,
but he was willing to consider it in a spirit
of concession and compromise and Join in
the construction of a measure which yield
ed something to the production of every
locality. He advocated reduction as it
would give larger markets. The country
had grown great in spite of protection.
The price Of labor was regulated by the
law OF supply and demand and not by the
tariff. American labor should have
chance to compete with foreign labor
and could take care of itself. The day
had arrived when the glory and triumph
of the patton consisted in bearing the ma
tional flag into the harbors of every coun-
try.
Mr.. Brown of Indiana replied the sur
plus did mt frighten him. 1t was an evidence
OF national prosperity and bad been
gathered INTO the treasury without op-
preston or complaint. If under the control
OF wise st6tesmanshlp il would b. natun-
al blessing, but as II was safer to reduce
it than to run risk OF i'll advised eXpendi-
tures, he was anxious to reduce il to the
lowest limits OF national wants. The presi-
dents plan of reduction would entail disas-
Ter. he quoted figures to show the domestic
wool product had increased enormously
under the 20 years of protection, while by
the reduction of 1883. the industry had
been well nigh ruined. He congratulated
the president upon having compelled the
party to take Issue upon the tariff
question. The masquerade was over and
the question was free trade or protection.
Inls D!ll was the vanguard of free trade
Mr.. Dockery of Missouri spoke favoring
the bill. He said both parties were under
solemn pledge to reduce the taxa
tion. The surplus was required in
reduced it would Ge squandered.
Many unprotected industries paid en-
plOyes higher wages than protected estab-
llshmenFs. The protective system built
up an aristocracy Of monopoly and the
enormous aggregation of capital in the
nan S OF few men gong.On for quarter
OF century had assumed such proportions
as to occasion serious alarm. II had been
estimated that if the wealth continued to
aggregate in the hands Of a few in the
next 10 years, 80 per cent of the entire
wealth OF the country would be in the
control OF one per cent OF its population.
The Limit of the Debate Fixed.
The House Ways and Means Committee
have agreed to limit the general tariff de-
bate to Il days after to-day, with two
evening sessions weekly, and to an equal
division Of time between the democratic
and republican speakers.

The Limit OF the Debate Fixed
CUR wAsHISGroN LETTER.
The Democratic Senators Caucusimg or
the Fisheries Treaty.

From our Regular Correspondent
WAsHGNGToN, April -.
a concurrent resolution for the appoint
ment OF a iJnt Senate and House COM
mittee, whose duty it shall be to inquire
into the best method of relieving Con
gress from the consideration of private
measures of all Kinds. was introduced i'll
the House today.
a bill was today introduced in the
House by Mr. Henderson of Iowa, author
izing the secretaries of war and nayv 10
deliver 10 the committees appointed by
the army OF the Tennessee, and the national
encampment of the G. A. r., such mum
Der OF condemned bronze guns as may be
required to be used in the erection of a
statue to the late Major General John A,
Logan, authorizing the erection of the
statue in Iowa circle, Washington, and
appropriating $4,000 for the construction
OF pedestal for the statue.
~
A bill was also introduced for the ap-
pointment of commission to inquire
into the intellectual and industrial pro-
gress of the colored race since 1865. If
this was honestly and imp partially carried
ont many people would he very much sur
priced, for while there are undoubtedly
few cOlOred men in the South who have
accumulated considerable property the
great bulk of the race who work upon the
plantations, are today in n worse Condi-
ton than they were i'll 1865 Freedom to
this class has been a moc6ery.
~
The democratic senators held another
caucus on the fisheries treaty this morn
ing 1t was stated that the apparent pur-
pose OF the republicans was to make the
treaty party question and to reject it.
III was proposed that rather than to have
TINS occur, the democrats should assent to
de1er action upon the treaty that its pro-
VISIONS may be actually tested under the
mOduS UtDcndt-that is, that the demo
Gratis are wiling to let the fishermen. the
men who are directly interested. Dracti-
cally test the benefit or evils that NAV
result from the treaty. The modts NJ.
r3ndl provides that by certain paVments
Tor specific time the fisherman may
have most of the privileges OF the treaty. |
The democratic senators, not having the |
power to prevent the republicans from
rejecting the treaty, would propose this |
as an alternative All this Il looked on by |
the republican senators as only excuses |
to delay the final settlement of the ques- |
tion, and they Will in oil probability on |
pose everything that may be proposed, ,
ana Will insist upon taking up the Ques- |
tlOn and finally disposing of it at once, by
rejecting the treaty.
