TARIFF HEARINGS.
Coal and Iron Men ClamOr
for Protection.
GENERAL IMBODEN'S VIEWS.
i The Race Problem Declared to be q
Factor in the Question
of Tariff.
Associated Press Dispatches to the HEEALD.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, December 27. = The
House Ways and Means Committee re-
newed its hearings on the tariff this
morning. Arguments were presented on
the subject of the duty on table cutlery,
stoves, gold leaf and bronze powders,
anvils, tin plates, wire rods and wire.
General Imboden of Virginia, speak
ing for the South, favored the retention
of the duty on coal and iron ore. He
contended that the coal, iron and rail-
road industry in the South would be
imper;led if coal was placed on the free
list. The men who worked the mines in
the South are principally negroes. These
people had to be provided with work. If
they did not receive work they would
live on the whites dishonesty.
A negro would not steal if he
could get work. He (Imboden) was
a protectionist he always had been one,
and believed that if in the South there
could be fair and square vote on the
protection issue, without any extraneous
issues, the protection issue and the pro-
tectionists would overwhelmingly carry
at least four or five Southern States. The
North had been made rich by protection
it was now the opportunity of the South
to become rich. If anybody was to be
protected, he would rather make an
American rich than Hungarian, italian
or Belgian.
Flower, of New York, inquired in ref
erence TO the remark as to the elections
in the South, whether Mr.. Imboden
meant that the color line had to be
drawn, and that the gentleman had to
vote against his sentiments. General
Imboden replied: "We are compelled to
stand together there under certain con-
ditions when the tariff sinks into insig-
nifcancs. On the question of protection
I am a Republi can; on local questions I
am Democrat"
Judge Bowling, of Virginia, also made
an argument in favor of the protection of
iron ore. He thought this matter of
protection to the industries of Virginia
had become one of the most important
features in the determination of the race
gu sstion. Farming did not pay in Vlr.
ginia and other labor must be supplied
to the negro. Protection was source Of
strength to the people of the South in
endeavoring to make better citizens OF
the negroes. Several other coal operators
argued against the reduction Of duty on
coal.
