WASHINGTON, January 6.-1he waysland
means committee gave hearing today to the
silk interest. F. w. Cheney of South Man
chester, Ct, president Of the Silk Associa-
tion Of America, was the first gentleman
heard. He favored the duty proposed by the
Senate tariff bill, which makes a reduction
of 10 per cent. on silks.
Brit0n Richardson, secretary of the same
association, advocated establishing COM
pound duty ON silk Half the silk used in
this country, he said, was manufactured
here. With necessary protection. the indus
try was bound to succeed. differentiation
of imports. he said, was the great obstacle
to the American manufacturer and should
be remeded
A. G. Kursheedt of New York, a manufac
turer OF silk braid, laces and other notions,
spoke in favor of increasing the duty ON silk
from % to 20 per cent. ad valorem.
Mr.. Walker, who has charge of the silk di-
vision OF the Department Of Agriculture,
told OF the results of the experiments the de-
partment had madeto produce silk. Sam
pies of the silk made at the department from
the native product were shown. The worm,
he said, was being successfully cultivated.
In most parts of the United States. as soon
silk, he thought it would become a paying
industry. He said the-duty must be levied
upon raw materials to protect home pr0duc-
ers.
This finished the silk hearing
John Diamond, president of the Sugar
Planters Association of Louisiana, read a
memorial OF the association. He said free
sugar from the Sandwich Islands did not af-
fect the price OF sugar in this country and
: was not therefore a detriment to the sugar
Industry of the United States.
Prof. w. G. Stubbs of the North Louisiana
Sugar experiment Station, spoke upon the
scientific features of sugar production He
SAID no industry ever made such progress as
had the sugar sugar industry within the past
five years. The witness said there was no
reason why sorghum and tropical sugar caue
should not be successfully grown from Ne
braska to the Gulf, producing all the sugar
needed for consumption in the United States.
In Louisiana, there was land enough to pro-
duce all the sugar and cotton consumed in
the United States If properly developed and
cultivated.
Gov. Yarmouth of Louisiana, said that
bounty on sugar growing would kill the in
dustry as the cry for its removal would be
necessity. Without sugar New Orleans
would be depopulated and its streets grown
with grass.
Other speakers urged the Importance of
encouraging the sugar industry which they
said is still in its infancy and capable of
great development.
In secret session, the chairman was in
structed to report tomorrow his administra-
tive bill
AT $40, the committee adjoured until 10
O'clock tomorrow.

The Central Labor Union on the
Trouble at Freeport.

HAvERHILL, Mass. January 6.-The bot
toners at j. q. Winchelle 4 Co.'s shoe man
ufactory, went on strike at $50 this after
noon, in obedience to an order of Harry G.
Moulton of the Boot and Shoe Makers I'M
ion. The exact cause could not be ascer-
tained, but 1t is understood that working by
the day had been substituted for piece work
and the employees left their benches on ac-
count Of the refusal OF the firm to change
back to piece work and accept the price list
presented by the union Mr.. Winchell said
he had nothing to say. He did not under
stand the grievances of the workmen. He
understood the union was making an effort
to establish an uniform price list in all facto
ries and would insist on work being done
by the piece instead of by the day or week.
The lasters and 'beaters-outs" have Joined
the union. The outlook for a speedy adjust
ment of price is not fattering. About one
third of the shoeworkers in the city belong
to the union, but are 30 scattered through
the different factories as to cripple the
whole should the strike become general. j.

a Review of Railroad Extension In
New England.

BosToN, January 5.-Ths activity which
New England has displayed in local railway
building during the year 1889 Is evidence
enough that the people are keenly alive to
the material needs of their own section.
When they have seen million upon million
Of their money sink out of sight in Western
soil within the twelyemonth, they have in
vested ungrudgingly in lines which, by con-
Meeting hitherto isolated cities and towns,
are to afford them quicker and cheaper tran
sit for themselves and their merchandise be-
tween the great centres of population and
commerce, and have exhibited strong de-
termination not to be left behind in the race
for prosperity.
In the States OF Massachusetts,, Rhode lis
and and Connecticut, where the railway
lines form almost complete network, there
has naturally been but little new construc-
tion. The people of these States have in
stead demanded and obtained better accom-
modati0ns from the existing corporations;
and they rejoice today in lower rates and
quicker time and more trains than ever be-
fore in their history.
Financially the past year has been pros
porous. The Maine Central. for instance,
reports an increase in net earnings of about
half million. The Fitchburg, notwithstand-
ing its failure to obtain the differentials,
which 1t claims are its due from though pas
sengers, would have resumed the payment
of dividends had:it not been.obliged to pay
S250,0c0 to the owners of a factory In Somer-
vile, which was burned by a locomotive
spark. Even the New York and New Eng
land has held its own,
The new railroad, properly so called, con-
structed during the year in New England
aggregates 140 miles, distributed among the
States as follows: Maine (approximated),
35; New Hampshire, 50 Vermont, %; Mas
sachusetts, % "a; Rhode Island, O; Connec-
tieut, 5.13.
The new construction in Maine, which is
of the annual average. Maine is State of
magnificent distances, and has within its
borders more undeveloped territory than all
the rest of New England combined. 1t IL,
therefore, more like far Western State in
its needs, and very like Southern State in
its tardiness in supplying them. That only
30 miles of railroad should have been built
in Maine this year-and less than $50 miles
in five yearS-i5 not exactly what one would
expect from the thrifty citizens of the State.
The completion of the international divis-
ion of the Canadian Pacific through the
northern edge of the State is the most i'm
portant outcome of the year. 1t has been
fully described in the Herald. The devel-
opments of the next few weeks are expected
to demonstrate the truth or falsity of the
protectonists' assertion that this foreign
corporation proposes to utilize It's American
line solely for its own benefit and for that of
the English owners rather than for the in
terests of the people of Mafne,~-hn desire
cheaper freights. 49,

WASHINGTON, January G. = Representa-
tive Mormons of Idaho appeared before the
Senate committee on territories today, and
asked that consideration for hill for the
state be postponed one week to allow the at
torneys for che Mormons to appear and pre-
sent their objections to the admission of the
territory under the recently adopted consti-
tuition, which virtually excludes Mormons
from citizenship by its oath provision. In
view of the fact that a case is pending in
the Supreme Court involving the constitu-
tionality of this provision, the committee
decided to grant the request for postpone
ment. Consideration Of the bill for the ad-
mission of Wyoming was postponed. The
statehood was referred to a subcommittee
