amounting to s1O1.5O with figures oppo-
site to each entry claiming to be tho
amount which such charges were in

imitation of prices aggregates $50. 80. In
other words our contemporaries claim
that what cost the farmer SOL. 80 would
have been bought for S67. 20 if the tariff
had not existed. We copy the claim of
the demonstrative capacity or the same
from that eminent free trade journal,
Henry Georges Standard, of July 10th,
as follows:
The Buffalo Courier says that some
time ago Senator James X. Jones asked
C. R: =. Breckenridge, of the House
Ways and Means Committee, to prepare
for w. L. Terry, of Little Rock, state
ment Of the amount of tariff duties on a
bill of goods bought by representa-
tive farmer. In reply Mr.. Breckenridge
furnished an exhibit based on actual
transactions between R. NJ. Knox, q.
merchant of Pine Bluff, Ark, and D. w.
Branch. a farmer who bought the goods.
Mr. Breckenridge explains that this is
calculated upon the basis of copy from
the books of Mr.. Knox, and upon the
rate of taxes actually paid upon Compel
ing articles at the ports as provided by
law" The bill as it appears in Mr..
Knox's books is subjoined.
Our space will not permit full pre-
sentation of thi: farmers purchases, for
nearly year, and we must confine our
selves to abstracts, as follows:

CLUBBED TO DEATH.
A Saloon-K Keeper Killed by Hood
lums in a Drunken Row.

j. c. Margot, a saloon-keeper, died in St
Mary's Hospital yesterday from meningitis
produced by a violent clubbing of his head.
His body was removed to the Morgue,
where post-mortem examination showed
that he had been the victim of violent
beating.
Immediately after the result Of the au-
topsy had been announced, Chief of Police
Crowley detailed Detective Bohen to make
an investigation into the matter MargGt
was native of France and 81 years OF age.
He kept saloon at 210 Leidesdorff street
but sold out there on Tuesday, the 9th inst.
lie was assaulted by two hoodlums two
days later in the saloon in quarrel about
drinks. and some of his friends say that he
was then beaten on the head with clubs.
wv hen admitted to the hospital last Thurs
day he was delirious.
There were several cuts and bruises about
MS lace and head, some of them being long
and lnclsed. After death the outer menu
brane of the brain and blood-vessels of the
skull were congested Nothing is known
so lar OF his assailants, nor will his ac-
QuaintanceS speak Of his death.
Late last night the detective arrested
Frank Smith, alias Dennis Whalen, and
placed him in the tanks. The arrest was
based on the statement Of three witnesses
who have been discovered by Detectives
Bowen and Linsky, and who state that
lney saw Inc connlct between MargOt and
Smith in the saloon on LeidesdOrff street.
Charles Wolfhugel, residing at the Branch
House, ayers that the two men qnarreIed
over the payment, of a drink. Margot
seized club and struck Smith. who took
the weapon from the safcSssfiaalan and hit
him on the head. Charles Clement OK the
Capitol House and Edward Fletcher OF
SO2 Montgomery street make similar state
ments.
Smith has served three months in the
House of Correction for stealing blanket
DIR. Connolly still persists that Margot died
from delirium tremens and not from a
fracture Of the skull.

Presentation of an Address to
7. B. Potter.
And-Chinese Legislation in the United States
Condemned.
Gladstone PrOpheSleS the Ultimate Triumph
Of the Free Trade Party in
This Country.
Special by the California Associated Press

LONDON, May 12-There was notable
gathering of free-traders at the Golden
Club to-day, the occasion being the presen-
tation of an address to Thomas Bayley Pot
ter, the Gladstonian member of Parliament
for Rochdae In the course of his speech
he referred to the anti-Chinese legisla-
tion in the United States. Owing
to the ambiguity Of the legislation
on the Chinese question, he said,
he was not altogether clear whether the
America Government taxed Chinese who
entered or barred them all out. Anyway,
he thought the Chinese we're to be dreaded
more for their virtues than their vices,
which he did not believe to be nearly as ex-
tensive or fragrant as the ground taken for
their exclusion alleged.
Mr.. Gladstone said that free traders mus t
recognize with disappointment how much
ground they have lost within the last
twenty-five years. Militarism, which
rope, was responsible for most of
the mischief, but not all, because
free trade had receded in countries where
militarism does not prevail, noticeably in
the United States aud The British Colonies.
The great republic, he said never accepted
the doctrines of free trade. There was once
a kind of qualified progress toward them,
but it was checked. and the opinion became
actually retrogressive. Still there was great
promise of the American free trade party
ultimately triumphing AT the polls. Re-
garding bimetalism, he said he believed its

of protection
