RECIPROCITY PLANS.
Morrill, A gainst 1t, but the Committee
Not with Him.

MOrrlu a &aln6C IL, Out the committee
Not with Him.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-Chairman Nor
rill will not agree to any reciprocity amend
ment. He contends that reciprocity is
limited free trade, that it tends toward
absolute free trade, and that, therefore, it is
inconsistent with and contradictory to
protection. He thinks Secretary Blaine has
been led asLray by his Imagination, and
warns his colleagues not to follow Secretary
Blaine. Senator Morrill, is not expected
back this session, and when he returns he
will be regarded with veneration, but not
sought as counselor, so that the other re-
publicans on the finance committee are
going right ahead with the preparation of
a reciprocity amendment to be pressed
when the proper time comes.
WHERE 1T WILL BE PUT IN.
1t will probably be attached to the free
sugar bill below the No. clause, and will
provide that the present duties on sugars
below that grade shall be collected on and
after Jan. /, 1892, upon sugars from all
countries which have not by that date
made reciprocal trade arrangements with
the United States, the President to make
proclamation in each case when reciprocal
arrangements have been made. At some
other point in the bill retaiatory clause
like that of Senator Edmunds will probably
be put in.

Same Old Point.

The Senate Resumes the Bill at the
Same Old Point.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-The tariff bill
was taken up in the Senate this noon, the
pending question being on Mr.. Plumb's
amendment reducing the duty on tin plate
from 2 2-10 cent to l cent per pound, and
allowing bounty of l cent per pound ON
American tin plate.
Mr.. Faulkner called for division on the
question.
The presiding officer recognized division
OF the question and then decided that the
first part, reduction of the duty, has already
been voted on and decided In the negative
and therefore could not be again voted on
in committee of the whole. The vote
would, therefore, be taken on the bounty
clause. This did not suit Mr.. Plumb, and
he withdrew the amendment for the
present.
CAN'T COME IN FREE.
Mr.. McPherSon's amendment to make tin
plate duty free was rejected.
Mr. Spooner offered an amendment for
free tin plate after 1896, UNI ieSs during any

duction has equal9d One-third of the inn

at first to accept the amendment as the best
they could hope for from the republicans,
licans had made some explanations, and it
went over till tomorrow.
The paragraphs relating to sheet iron or
sheet steel plates. taggers' tin, steel ingots
and wire rods for making wire fencing were
agreed to with the committee amendments,
motions by democrats to reduce the duties
being rejected.

When the cutlery paragraph was reached
Mr.. Cullon took the floor for set speech
upon the general subject OF the tariff, stat
ing his belief that In a great degree the
growth and development of the wealth of

The discussion on the cutlery paragraph
was carried on at much length and was par
ticipated in by Messr5. Platt, Hawley, His
cock and Blair on the republican side and
by Messrs Vance, Carlisle and Mcpherson
on the democratic side, the text being a
motion by Mr.. Vance to substitute ad valo-
rem for specific duties. The amendment
and bill went over.

THE HOUSE MAY BIZ STUBBORN.
A paper was In circulation on the floor
of the House to-day addressed by the repub-
lean members to the committee on rules
Ieciting the necessity for final action by
congress upon the national election bill, and
expressing the willingness of the signers to
co tiuue the present session until such ac-
tion is had MIR. Kennedy of Ohio circu-
lated the paper, and it was reported that
more than forty republican signatures had
been attached before the House met
at noon. Toe southern republicans who
have been protesting most strongly against
the Quay resolution have SO far refrained
from any united action, and it would ap-
pear that the counsels OF the leading spirits
to avoid a sectional move and to cast their
lot with the majority of the party will pre-
vail.

Blaine was behind she Quay resolution.
Senator Quay admits that iC came from
Pittsburg. 1t will be remembered that B.
F. Jones of Pittsburg, fresh from Bar Har-
Dor, promptly indorsed it in an elaborate in-
terview which he could not have prepared
after he had heard of it, and
that no other Pittsburg manufacturer
has come out for it. The claim of connec-
tion with Secretary Blaine is so close that
President Harrison and Speaker Reed are
satisfied that their arch enemy has done
this thing also. Senator Quay, they think,
got the resolution from Mr.. Jones, who
got it from Secretary Blaine. Senator
Quay and Secretary Blaine will prove more
than a match for President Harrison and

AUGUSTUS PosTMAsTERsH1P.
The Charges Against Col DenninR
Reiterated.

HS1L0r&bSO
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10. Senator Col
quiUt has received from Mayor May and
other Augustans kilograms reiterating the
charges against Col Denniug, but adding
no new charges and no new proofs. In view
of the fact that the inspectors report covers
the ground SO fully, Senator CoIguits does
not see how he can prevent Col. Denning's
confirmation. Inspector Sharpe said In his
report: First, that the bribery charge had
been tried in Augusta and had not been
sustained; second, that the check-ralsing
charge applied to a clerk in Col. Denning's
employ, Col Denning having made
of it; third, that Col. Denning's delay in
settling the estate was not unwarranted or
unusual under the practice of Georgia; in
short, that there was nothing in the charges
to warrant the rejection OF Col. Denning.
