CONGRESSIONAL.
The Tariff on Tin Plate is Settled in
the Senate.
Considerable Discussion About the Production
of Tin in this Country as Well as in
Foreign Landslide Debate.
THE SENATE.


WASHINGTON, Jan. INT. Hoar
from the committee on privileges and
elections reported back, without amend
ment, the concurrent resolution recently
introduced by him as to the meeting of
the two houses to count and declare the
result of the votes. Calendar.
Phe senate at 1926 resumed considera-
ton of the tariff bill, the pending ques-
ton being ON amendments TO the tin
plate paragraph.
Mr.. Hale asked Mr. Allison to state
what portions of the bill remained I'M
acted upon.
Mr. Allison specified as among the i'm
porLant matters yet to be acted on the
wood and sugar and wool and wooden
schedule, with a great many detached
portions from other sections, such as
rice, cutlery and various other things,
that would lead to more or less debate.
The question of the existence OF tin in
the United States was brought up by an
assertion made 10y GIr. Allison that there
were more extensive deposits of tin in
this country than in all the rest of the
world There was tin enough in Dakota
to supply the world if the deposit there
could be utilized. The Cornwall mines of
Wales supplied an infinitely small part
OF the worlds supply. There was
large importations Of tin from Australia,
Malaga and the Malay archipelago, and
tin was imported free of duty. 1t was
worth $500 a ton. But there was only
from two to five per cent. of pure tin in
articles Of tin ware; the rest was iron;
therefore, the whole thing was question
of labor. As tin was imported free of
duty, just as in Great Britain, there was
no reason why with protection on tin
plate competition could not be success
fully maintained.
Mr. Vest remarked if the tin mines of
this country could be successfully worked
they would have been developed before
this time.
The debate was further continued by
Messrs Platte, salisbury. Plumb,
George, Aldrich, Mitchell and Call.
Finally a vote was taken and the amend
ment was adopted-yeas, %; nays, IS,
(Mr, Brown voting yea. 1t fixes the
duty on tin plate, taggers iron or steel,
when valued at cents a pound
or less, thinner than No. 10,
and not thicker than No 20 wire gauge,
at l cent per pound; on thinner plates at
I Ito, $40 and 4-l0 cents per pound;
on all corrugated or crimped plates,
40 cents per pound. All other iron or
steel hoop, excepting tin plates when
galvanized or coated with zinc, steel or
other metal are to pay q cents per pound
additional, and after January /, 1889,
tin plate is to pay q of cent per pound
additional.
An amendment proposing bounty on
sugar made from beets, sorghum or sugar
cane grown in the United States was then
taken up.
After an executive session the senate
adjourned.

tained-An Important Case.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. IA
special to the Times says the trial of the
employees of the Lehigh Valley railroad,
who were the cause of the accident at
Mud Run on October 10 of last
year, by which sixty-one persons
lost their lives, was commenced at
Mauch Chunk to-day. The first case
called was that Of Joseph Cook, engineer
Of the first engine that crashed into the
train which was standing at Mud Run
station. The district attorney then
read the Indictment charging Cook with
neglect or failure to obey orders and
misconduct. Counsel at once
moved to quash the Indictment,
claiming there were three charges men
toned and as many counts, but not one
of them was specific or to the point. The
district attorney sought to amend
the Indictment, but Judge Dreshier
sustained the objection and the indict-
ment was quashed. The prosecution
then drew up another document and
presented it to the grand jury which was
still in session.

An Ola conductor on tne Mexican NatlOnal
Run Over by Train and Killed.
Special to the Gazette.
LAREDO, TEX, Jan. 17.-Meager de-
tails have come to this city of the death
of Mr. J. w Carroll, an old conductor
on the Mexican National railway, who
was accidentally killed at Carneros, 100
miles below Saltillo, on the 10th inst. 1t
appears that he was in temporary charge
of a construction train loaded with rock
ballast which was going down a steep in
cline on the road As there did not appear
to be bTakemen enough to handle the
train Mr.. Carroll ran out over several of
the cars and set some brakes. He slipped
between the cars, fell on the track and
eight cars passed over his body, COM
plelely cutting it to pieces. The train
could not be stopped for quite distance,
but when they returned to the spot where
he fell, nothing but his scattered and
mangled remains were found. He was
buried in Carneros.

GERMANK.

Il London Paper Explains Bisn,Grck's De
sire to Prosecute GcfcIen.
LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE Pail Mall Ga
zette, commenting upon the Geffcken
affair, says the animus Of Prince Bis
marck against Professor Geffcken is of
long standing. Years ago at social meet
ing in an unreserved after dinner Pro-
fessor Geffcken delivered an extravaganza
diatribe, declaring that Bis
marck had not one single
novel trait of character, and
was without trace of kindness OF
purity. These words, in accordance
with the system of espionage practiced
by Germany, were reported to the
bureau at Berlin and noted down in
Bismarck s black book. The whole
affair recalled the story of Hannah and
Mordecai The German, Haman, seeks
to gibbet his Mordecai by publishing an
Indictment, the only result being to
justify Geffcken in the eyes of the world.
THE GEFFCKEN CASE.
BERLIN, Jan. II The retirement of
Minister Friedberg is traced to the APP
pearance of his name in papers seized in
connection with the Geffcken case. 1t is
reported Dr. Simson will resign the presi-
dency of the LEIPZIG court for the same
reason.
Vossiche Zeitung, referring to the pub
LEGATION of the Geffcken Indictment, says:
owe protest against the public being
invited to deliver a verdict on the accu-
sotion after the highest court in
the empire has delivered judgment.
We cannot recollect any previous in
stance in Germany or any other country
of trial of the kind being conducted
before the bar of public opinion in an
official form by means of legal docu-
ments
The foregoing article reflects the gen
eral opinion of the Liberal press.
The Post says the time viii come when
on account of the Leipsic de-
cision the Conservatives and many others
will take up position not
against that individual court but against
the whole tendency of German criminal
law, legislation and practice.
The Geffcken correspondence, which
was submitted to the bundesrath to-day,
covers $50 folios. 1t is not, as is GUS
tomary, marked confidential.

ZANZIBAR, Jan. II The Arabs have
destroyed the German missionary station
at Tugu, fifteen miles west of Dares,
Salem. A majority of the slaves cap
tured by the German man-of-war Lipslg,
were unloaded at the station. One mis-
sionary succeeded in escaping from the
Arabs, but eight others were massacred.
Three bodies, one of woman, were
found mutilated in q barborous manner.
The Arabs carried off the servants and
stores at the station. The French mis-
sionary stations, especially those situated
near Tugu are in imminent danger. The
Arabs who are now joining in the slave
trade come principally from Kiliva and
Hindi and are richer and more influential
than Bushire and are likely to overshedow
him These accessions to the ranks of
the slave traders win have the effect of
reinvigorating the revolt which would
have died out if the Germans had not re-
tanned Bogamoyo and Bar EsSalem.
