We were assured in the last cam
paign by every republican stumper
and every republican organ that the
tariff was not a tax and the consum-
er didn't pay it Now every one of
them with a cackle of pleasure
points to cheap sugar and says just
look there at what the Mckinley
bill has done. 1t took the tariff off
sugar and thus reduced the price
about 33 per cent. This is a sample
of republican consistency.

The Supreme Court OF the United
States in October will pass upon the
constitutionality of the Mckinley
tariff law. The points raised are
two in number: First, whether a
bill passed by the Speaker counting
a quorum is constitutional, and sec
ond, whether the bill was properly
enacted into law when one section
passed by both Houses was omitted
in the enrollment-a clause of the
tobacco section having been thus
omitted.

Some of our esteemed cotempora-
ries that go into ccstacies over the
news that number of Welsh tin
makers are coming to this country
to establish plants for the manufac-
ture of tin plate, will in the end find
their joy turned to sorrow. Such a
proceeding would be the very OPP
pOsite result of that sought, or pre-
tended to be sought, to be attained
by the Mckinley bill.
Suppose Welsh capitalists come
over here and erect big plants, and
bring over their own workmen what
will be the result? The Welsh
manufacturer will take the profits
and enjoy life with them in Britain;
the Welsh workmen will do the
work and get the wages; the Ameri-
can consumer will consume the tin
and pay the bill. All the profits
and all the wage money will go to
the foreigners and the American
who uses tin will, under the McKin-
ley bill, be forced to pay nearly
twice as much for it.
Any measure that brings foreign
capital to own our industries, and
foreign labor to absorb tho wages
cannot help the people of this coun-
try.

Balmaceda Did Steal the Silver.

LONDON, Aug. A dispatch to the
Times, published today, from Buenos
Ayres, confirms the information contained
in letter from Lisbon to the effect that
President Balmaceda, of Chill, sent 81 600
900 in silver to Montevdeo for shipment to
Europe, thanks to the good offices of the
captain of the British warship EspiegIe
President Balmaceda, according to the
story, being unable to borrow money. seized
the silver bullion in the treasury at San
tiago de Chill, which was stored there as
security for the fduciary circulation, in
order to be able to pay the sums due to
European contractors who have been sup
plying him with ships, arms and ammu-
milton. The writer of this communication
added that Balmaceda, being unable to hire
a private vessel to transport the silver to
Montevideo, from where it was to be trans
ferred to Europe, managed to persuade the
commander of her maiesty's ship Espiegle
to convey the silver to Montevideo, where
the money was landed August 15
The Times, commenting upon this letter.
said it was confident that the commander
Of the Espiegle took this step without the
consent of the British admiralty, adding
that ii seemed as though British warship
had been made an accomplice in q down
right robbery. The Times said the matter
demanded full and prompt breakfast.

OMAHA UNION DEPOT
Meeting Between Company Of
ficials and a Council Committee.
Mr.. I. L. Kimball Says the Company Gas no
Money-lt Has Been Diverted
TO Other Uses

Ah d, A'Sp'i mug 1t.-lopeCldl t6l6-
gram to The HERALD jay Gould will
be called in to take hand in the Union
depot matter, which has become sadly mud
died during the months since work was
stopped on the structure, which was COM
menced with such flourish of trumpets
last fall. There was a conference this
morning In the private Office of Mr.. T. l..
himball, third vice-president of the Union
Pacific railway and president of the Omaha
Union depot company. The parties to the
conference were Mr.. Kimbsll and Messrs,
Lowrey, Bechel, Elsasser and Cooper, of a
council committee appointed last week for
the purpose of finding out what could be
done towards getting work started on the
new Union depot. Some surprises were in
store for the committee. The first one
came when Mr.. Kimball informed the gen
tlemeu that the Union depot company had
no funds with which to complete the work,
even if there were no other obstacles in the
way. This was explained by the statement
that the bonds of the Union Depot com
pany issued last fall had been diverted to
meet the running expenses of the Union
Pacific and Burlington roads and were
gone beyond recall, There was no way to
get them back, and the only thing to do
would be for the two companies to go to
work and put up the amount used This
would require time, and might not be sat-
lsfactorily accomplished at all.
Mr.. himball spoke for himself and for
Mr.. Holdredge, of the Burlington. He
said they were both anxious to have the
depot completed and would do everything
IN their power to have the work done. One
OF the conditions, the prime one, which
Mr.. kimball said it would be necessary to
meet before further work would be done
would be the dismissal of the Injunction
suit now pending in court, prohibiting the
delivery of The city viaduct bonds to the
depot company. The councilmen refused
to agree to any such condition until work
had been actually and earnestly commenced
on the depot structure and assurances
given that there will be no further delav in
the completion of the depot. At the coun-
Gil meeting to- morrow night the commit
tee will report progress. In the meantime
MIR. himoall will make an effort to get the
matter before conference of railroad
officials.
Jay Gould will start home in few DAYS
from his summer retreat up in Idaho and
will be met by Mr.. Kimball who will
bring him to Omaha for conference with
the officials as to the cost Of the Union
depot. Mr.. Kimban hopes TO have de.
cision that will result in renewal of work
on the Union depot. Some serious litipa-
ton is anticipated as result of Gould,s
diverting the bond money.

outrages on Chinese at MissouIa.

HELENA, Mont, Aug. 24.-[Special tele-
gram to The HERALD].-A dastardly out
rage was committed at an early hour yes
terday morning at Missoula A party of
fifteen white miscreants wearingmasks des-
cended upon three inoffensive Chinese gard
eners living near that city, looted the cabin,
destroyed the structure, broke all the fur
niture and maltreated two of the Celestials
in terrible manner, and one of them
was pounded brutally ana gashed with
knife. The other was tarred and feathered.
his cue cut of and SO roughly handled that
he may die. 1t is thought the raid is the
result of rabid anti-Chinese agitation in
augurated aud fostered by the laboring
men of this city. AT recent mass meet
ing violent measures were urged by the
reckless, but finally general boycott was
declared against the Chinese and all who
patronize them. From the fact that there
are at least fifteen in the party it is plain
robbery was not the prime motive

The Battle of VIVA del Mar Indecisive

NEW YORK, Aug 24.-The Herald says:
The battle at Vins del Mar beach was only
stopped by darkness last night. There was
no decisive result reached. Both armies
rested today to get themselves in the best
possible condition for the final struggle
which must soon determine the mastery of
Cnlh. Balmaceda's line of defense yester-
Gay was strongly fortified and was under
the range of Fort Callao'g guns. Many of
MS troops are raw recruits, but
tnere is leaven of veterans among
the line. After the rebels dashed against
the line OF government troops, only to be
repulsed with great bloodshed, repeated
attacks were made with no decided advan-
tage to either party. Under cover of a flag
OF truce ambulances and the hospital corps
were busy during the night caring for the
wounded. When morning broke it was
discovered neither party was in a position
10 assume the offensive and practical
truce today with no fighting has been the
result.
Neither party has been idle during the
Gay. Scouting parties from the insurgent
army have been securing the country for
supplies, and one of them cut the railroad
to Santiago at Salto The government
forces are strengthening their lines and
maneuvering to get into position which
Will preclude any successful attempt on the
part OF the enemy to get into the rear of
the city of Valparaiso.
1t is generally believed that General
Canto, commander of the rebels, will at
tempt a flank movement when he resumes
operations, and this the Balmacedists are
attempting to Illustrate. In the face of an
army equal in valor, as well armed
and equipped and at least equal if not
superior in numbers, to force
the line of forts with their
heavy guns manned by expert and veteran
gunners defending Valparaiso from the
northeast, consisting of Forts Callao, Pc
detto, Andes and Valparaiso, is task to
daunt the most confident general. If by
any means Balmacedas army can be
thanked and the insurgents can make
a good position in the rear of the
city, they will, in the opinion of
foreign naval officers here, do it.
General Canto is veteran of the Peruvian
war; ne knows the country and realizes
that II he can get the heavy guns on the
hill back of the city, he will not only have
position which is practically impregnable
from the attacks of any force which can be
brought against him, but which will enable
him to batter down the city at his will

men Contracting for Rain.

BUTTE, Mont, Aug. 24.-[Special tele-
gram to The HERALD. The feature of
the hearing to-day in the case of the men
accused of the murder of Editor Penrose
was the testimony of Mrs. Mennessey,
who lives near the spot where the deed was
committed. She stated that the morning
after the murder, Kelly, one of the &C
cused, whom she positively identified,
passed up the alley in the rear of her
house. She was standing at the time at
her back door, and that after passing her
he retraced his steps, evidently having
missed something and picked up black
mask. She stood a lengthy examination
without hinching.
In the Davis will case the contestants
announced they rested their case. The
move of the Davis people was a motion to
throw out testimony that will had been
executed in 1880 by A. j. Davis and sub
sequeutly destroyed, said VIII having con-
tanned a clause revoking all other wills.
The motion 10 throw out was based upon
the fact that the evidence in regard to the
will was insufficient. Two witnesses had
testified that the will was made, but only
one testifying that it had been destroyed
by the testator. The entire afternoon was
taken up in argument of counsel, which
was not concluded.
