ordered conference committee to-day it
resolved itself into committee OF the
whole and resumed consideration Of the
Tariff bill.
In the course of the debate Mr.. Mills
(Tex.) denied an assertion by Mr.. Bur-
rows Mich. that the effect OF tariff was
to reduce the price Of articles to the CON
gunner.
Mr.. Walker Mass. asserted that the
workiugman got every dollar OF the in
crease OF price on account OF the tariff.
As manufacturer he hurled back the in
pult which denominated manufacturers
ha robber barons. Applause on Repub-
lican side.
Mr.. Mills regretted that the gentleman
from Massachusetts, had become SO in
dignant. He (Mr. Mills) had been
charged the other day with an exhibition
Of plantation manners; the gentleman
was now giving an exhibition of manu-.
featuring manners. His heart was
swollen with devotion 10 the working
man. He said that the tariff WIS in
tended to enable manufacturers to pay
wages to the laborer. The manufacturer
paid $1.25 to labor producing o ton Of
pig iron. The government gave the
manufacturer t6.72 in order to enable
him to pay that @l.25. The manuiac-
turer paid labor SO for producing ton
Of steel rails; the government gave him
$i7 to enable him to pay it. Why did
not the manufacturer give the $l7 to the
workingmen instead of going on tally-ho
rides through the mountains of Hcotlandp
In the course of the discussion on
amendments to the glassware schedule,
Ar. McMillin (renn.) allude to u Mr..
Campbell OF Pittsburg, glass nanufac-
tuFer, asking for protection from foreign
labor, while he was charged with import
ing foreign labor in violation Of the Con-
tract Labor law.
Mr.. Bergen IN. J.) yentured to say that
Mr.. Campbell was Democrat.
MIR. Bynum Qnd. said that on the con-
trary Mr.. Campbell was an ardent sup
porter of Mr.. Harrison.
Mr.. Bayne (Pa) testified to the good
reputation enjoyed by Mr.. Campbell.
MIR. Bynum denounced Campbell as a
perjurer. Campbell had como before the
ways and means committee, and had held
q consultation with the gentleman from
West Virginia Mr.. Wilson, and himself,
and then had gone away and made an
affidavit which was false from beginning
to end, Rld had Campbell ever come
into his (Mr. Byrum's) district he would
be in the cell of the prison to-day.
Mr.. Bsyne said that he would take Mr..
Campbells word as soon as his would
take that OF the gentleman from Indiana;
and he knew them both. Campbell was
the chosen Representative of large or
ganizstion of reputable workingmeu, and
my insult OF indignity oifersd to him was
offered to them. He pledged his word
for MIR. Campbell that he would be here

constitution, for any member to agsail the
character and reputation of q citizen.
Mr.. Wilson CIV. Vs.) confirmed what
the gentleman from Indiana had said
Campbsil had had an interview with the
gentleman and himself. He had then
gone away and made an absolutely falls;
affidavit. Afterwards, to bolster mp tina
statement, he made an Affidavit 10, OOl
copies of which were scattered over hi
(Mr. WilsoD's) district In the pubii,
press and on every stump he had felt i
his duty to denounca Campbell as a per
iurer and to declare that his affidavit was
from top to bottom, o lie.
Mr.. Bayne said that he knew nothini
sbout the affidavit, but he never woult
believe charge Of this kind until tn
man had been convicted in court o
justice.
In the uourse Of some further remark
Mr.. Bynum ssid that the committee O.
ways and means, in the formation of it
bill, had closed the doors of the capito
against the labor Of the country, but ad
mitted the manufacturers. The majorit
