Predictions That the Protectionist

Predictions That the Protectionist
Craze VIII Be short-Lived.
PARIS, March 17.-Apropos of the pres
ent tariff agitation, NJ. de Molinard, editor
of the Journal des Economistss, we'll
known advocate Of free trade principles,
said TO the correspondent of the Associated
Press; "There is complete reaction in
France in favor of protection. In both
chambers the protectionists have a
very strong majority. 1t is true that
at least two members Of the
present ministry-M. Rouvier, minister
OF finance, and NJ. Guyot, minister Of pub
lie works, are pronounced free traders, but
they can do nothing for the cause The step
that parliament is about to take will injure
France enormously. Our manufacturers see
no further than the ends of their noses
Protection is a suicidal policy, and yet the
protectionist spirit has always existed in
France
INFLUENCED BY THIS COUNTRY.
NJ. Courcelle-Seneuil, member of the
institute, said: II am persuaded that the
tariff which Is now being prepared is not
destined 70 remain In force for very long
period. The example Of the United States
In its recent legislation has had great in
huence in France. But IL America should
now veer around in the direction of free
trade Its action would probably determine
asimilar movement in France.n
THE GOVERNMENT FRIGHTENED.
Paul LIE Roy -Beaulieu, editor of the Econ
omtste Frdncdise, and professor at the Col
lege OF France, said: 81 believe that in a
year or so the legislature will be obliged to
modify the tariff it is now preparing.
This great protectionist reaction will
cause us much trouble at home and
abroad. The government is al
ready rather frightened by the pros
poets OF the results which the coming tariff
threatens TO have Very few of the cabi-
net ministers are really protectionists at
heart. Many deputies share the opinions
OF these ministers in their inmost souls.
But their constituents force them TO vote
for pro ection, which is tho reason why the
legislature is composed so entirely of high
tariff men. Unless | am quite mistaken in
my prediction, the new tariff will not be a
very lasting one."
Noel Parfarail, veteran republican and
protectionist deputy, made a statement that
pork was cheaper in France since the pro-
hibition of American pork He added
Naturally, we do not wish to change this
state of things.n

MORE MEN NEEDED IN TIE NAVY
The Legal Limit Must Be Increased to
Properly Man the Ships.

WAsHINGroN, March 17.-Orders have
been sent to the various receiving ships CT
the navy to discontinue all enlistments for
the present. This is because the legal limit
of $3.50 men and boys has been nearly
reached. Ii was discovered last week that
the number in the service was within forty
two OF the limit, and in order to provide
for continual service men, whom it is
always desirable to re-enlist, it was deemed
advisable to call a halt before there
was no room left for these men.
In order to make more room it was decided
to discharge a number of men whose term
OF enlistment had nearly expired The
crew Of the Galeua, about fifty mon, were
TO have been discharged upon arrival Of
the ship at Portsmouth, but it is probable
that they will be retained now until the end
of their term. as they have lost all OF their
clothing.
THE NAVY IN A DILEMMA.
1t is expected that if there should be no
relief afforded by legislation during the
next congress, it will be impossible 10 prop
erly man the vessels that have been ordered
by name to participate in the naval review
in 1893 in connection with the worlds fair
In other words, the vessels that have been
named in the official announcements will
need more men than are now allowed for
the entire navy, without reckoning the
ships that It is absolutely necessary to keep
on the foreign stations. The annual APP
peals of the Secretary of the Navy
to congress for relief from this
constantly growing difficulty have been
ignored until it has become a dilemma with
which the navy department Is now face TO
face The gravity of the situation may be
realized when it is stated that it is now inn
possible to give the vessels in commission
their full complement Of men. The new
cruiser Newark is aheiit 100 men short, and
there is scarcely vessel in the navy with
its full complement of men.

Oranges and Lemons Greatly Dam.
aged by the Recent Gale.
NEW York, March 17.--Some excitement
has been caused in the foreign fruit trade
n this city by reports from Italy to the
effect that the orange and lemon crops have
been destroyed by the recent storms. Presi-
dent Contenincin of the Italian chamber of
commerce. who at present is at Sorrento,
Italy. has written letter here, in which he
says that the damage to the orange and
lemon crops has been enormous aud was
caused by gale which swept
all of the leaves off Of
the trees, leaving the oranges and lemons
without protection. The crop, he estimates,
will be reduced about rs per cent There
are from so 900 to 10000 boxes Of winter
cut fruit stored there. leaving about an
equal amount on the trees for shipment
Had it not been for the gale Sorrento would
have shipped during the spring fully 300, 600
boxes of oranges. The lemon crop suffered
chiefly from hail, which chilled the fruit.
Sorrento will not export this summer over
10000 to 80 900 boxes of lemons instead OF,
as formerly, about 100000 boxes.
