There are some glazing inconsistent
cies in the remarks OF tho New York i'm
rorters who lately visited Washington
City to protest against the passage OF the
Mckinley tariff bill. For instance, Mr.,
james NJ. Constable, the President Of
the Importers Organization, uttered the
following remarkable sentences, which
DO not seem to agree with each other:
I'VE come to protest in the name oil
the common people, who, by tho bill,
will be compelled to pay an increase OF
duty. II this bill goes into operation a
great many importers will have to retire
from business"
Mr.. Constable did not inform the
Senate Committee, and it was an over.
sight in them not to ask him, why i'm.
porters should "retire from business" il
"the common people arc compelled to
pay an increase OF duty" The two
propositions are antagonistic. &
At the same time Mr.. Isidor Strauss
declared that ut is mistake to suppose
that they (tle impcrtcrs) object to Tariff
duties. The larger the gross cost Of the
goods the greater their profit, for they
charge their percentage Of profit on the
Tariff as well as on the original cost"
Now, it is just little STRANGE that, il
the Mckinley bill proposes to increase
the profits OF the importers, he should
80 before the Senate committee and pro.
test against its passage, and some OF
them argue that it would force importers
to retire from business.
Speaking upon the same subject, a
contemporary propounds the following:
VIII II be great disadvantage 10 tho country
~ Stea. many importers have 10 retire from

Convicted of Libel amt Sentenced to One
 Year in Prison.
 LONDON, Jan. 17.-The libel suit of the Earl of Huston against Mir. pari1e. editor of the North London Press, '' ended in tho conviction of Mir. Parke. and he was sentenced to one years i'm prisonment.
 Justice Hawkins, before whom the case was tried, in his charge to the jury, reviewed the evidence carefully. He declared that there wero great discrepancies manifested in the Identification of tho plaintiff. Roferr- ing to the testimony of the witness John Saul, tho justlce said ii his story was true he marveled why he had nol been arrested and prosecuted, and als why warrant had not been aske against the Earl of Euston.
 The verdict astounds everybody. al though upon a strict interpretation oI the laws relating to libel it is doubtful that the jury could have found other wise. It is perfectly plain. however that Mir. Parke's defeat and diScomiit ure are due to his inability to produce reputable witnesses, the smirched char acter of those who testified having mil ltated against their credibility.
