Akin to Free Trade.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-President
Harrison to-day transmitted to congress
a letter from Secretary Blaine, upon the
subject of customs union and the recon-
mendations in respect thereof by the
pan-American conference. Secretary
Blaine suggests an amendment to the
tariff bill authorizing the president to
declare the ports of the United States
free to the produce of any American ma
ton upon which no export dues are
charged, so long as such nation shall
admit free to its ports the manufactures
and products of the United States.
The president in transmitting the
communication says: 1t has been so
often and so persiStently stated that our
tariff laws offered an insurmouDtable
barrier to large exchange of products
with the Latin-American nations that
I deem it proper to call especial
Z attention to the fact that more
that 81 per cent OF the products
of those nations, sent to our ports. are
now admitted free. If sugar is placed
upon the free list, practically every i'm
portant article exported from those
States will be given untaXed access to
OuT OAOOpu WOOl' AhO ASoA
difficulty in the way of negotiating pro-
fitabIe reciprocity treaties is that we
have given freely so much that would
have had value in the mutual conces-
sions which such treaties imply. l can
mot doubt, however, that the present
/, advantages which the products of those
near and friendly states enjoy in our
markets though they are not, by law,
exclusive-will, with other consider
ations, favorably dispose them to adopt
such measures, by treaty OF otherwise,
as will tend to equalize and greatly
enlarge our mutual exchanges. 1t
will certainly be time enough
for US to consider whether
we must cheaper the cost of
productian by cheapening labor in Or
der to gain access to the South Amerl-
can markets, when we have fairly tried
the effect of established and reliable
steam communication and of convenient
methods of money exchanges.

No Conference of the Twin City

Bankers Club.
The statements In the afternoon
papers yesterday that conference had
been held by several of the Twin City
Bankers club members of Minneapolis,
with H. P. Upham, of the First Nation
al bank, anent the advisability of call
ing meeting of the club to discuss
the present difficulty, prove to have
been without foundation in fact. Mr..
Upham was seen by a GLOBE reporter
last evening and stated that he had not
seen Mr.. Pillsbury. who was reported
to have been with the party, for several
months, and that he had seen no one
but President Harris, of the club,
who had called at the bank in the
afternoon, unaccompanied by any one,
and merely on friendly visit. He be-
lieved Mr.. Harris remarked that some
members had withdrawn from the Twin
City Commercial club, and expressed
his regret. He did not say that any
members had withdrawn or intended
withdrawing from the bankers club,
though he suggested that such an event
was possible, and hoped that it would
not cause a rupture of the pleasant
social relations which had existed
among the members.

THE POLICE SORE.
They Claim No Censure Is Due
Them.

At the overflow meeting held outside
Armory hall, Minneapolis, Wednesday
night, some OF the speakers took occa-
sion to roast the police, particularly
Capt. Helm and Sergeant Kirkham, be-
cause the patrol wagon was called out
for Marshal Daggett, and some officers
were allowed to assist him in taking
the seven arrested enumerators to the
depot Tuesday night. The police feel
that they have been unjustly treated in
the matter. They assert that they knew
nothing about Daggett's presence in the
city until they were called upon for as
sistance, that they were ignorant of his
mission until they arrived at the Van
derburg block and found that he had ar
rested some census enumerators. Even
then they knew not whatwas the charge
against the men, and, having been
called upon by a United States officer
for assistance, were in duty bound to
render such assistance. They think
that they did nothing for which they
should be censured.

Fatal Collision Between Freight
and Pay Trains.

ATcH1soN, Kan, June ia head
end collision between the pay train and
freight train occurred this morning
on the Kansas City, st. Joseph & Coun-
ell Bluffs railroad, about three miles

gineer of the pay train, was killed. The
injured are: Conductor Pritchard, of

back seriously injured; Dean Bartlett,
assistant roadmaster, ribs broken. The
two engines were telescoped, and the
tender of the freight train was driven
intoa a car of horses, just behind it, kill
ing eighteen of them. The cause of the
accident is found in the supposition that
the engineer of the pay train supposed
that the freight, which had almost come
to stop on the main track, was on the
switch. Had The freight train been go
ing at its full speed terrible loss of
life would have resulted.
