CORKS IN THE TARIFF BILL.
A Protest Against Any Increase Of
Duty.

A. Daussa, J. B. Colgan and W. J. Farrell Of
New York appeared before the ways and means
committee today to protest against the pro-
posed increase of duty on corks.
They said this was thing every family was
interested in; that they all used corks, whether
advocates of prohibition or users Of strong
drink. The increase Of the duty from 25 per
cent. as 1t now is, to Is cents per pound
would be disastrous to the business. But few
cork manufacturers, they said, would get the
benefit, and the importation of corks would be
broken up. Under the present tariff the i'm
portatons have fallen of from 265, 900 to
Z47, 900 in the past wear
