The proclaimed purpose of the No
kinley tariff is to enable American en-
ployers TO pay higher wages to Ameri-
can workingmen. Yet diligent search
and much challenging have failed to
discover a single workingman who re-
joices in any such benefit, while Mr..
John De Witt Warner has collected for
the New York Weekly World a truly
startling list Of cases in which reduc-
lions have been made in the wages of
men employed in the shops and mines of
protected capitalists. His list includes
reductions in II iron and steel factories.
IL in coal companies, IS in wooden and
worsted mills. - in clothing factories.
IN cotton mills or groups of cotton
mills, 2 in pottery establishments. 3 in
glass works and 80 in miscellaneous in
dustries. The reductions have ranged
from to 80 per cent. and have affected
thousands of lvorkmenand their families

IIatmakers Done with protection.

AT mass meeting of the Cloth Hat
and Capmakers' union in New York on
June 10, over zoo men, representing
twenty-six out of the thirty shops in the
city, discussed the grievance of wage re-
auctions. 1t was said that during the
last year several reductions in their
wages at different times have made a
total reduction of 20 per cent, and that
during the past four months of the year
the best men have been unable to earn
more than six dollars week. They will
make an effort to get wages back above
starvation point.
Pitiable as is the lot of these men, it Is
no worse than that of hatmakers else
where in this country since the McKin-
ley bill came their way. A few years
ago the hat factories of Bloomfield, Wat
sessing and East Orange, N. j., were
prosperous and gave steady employment
to hundreds of hands, nearly all of whom
voted for protection" The almost pro
hibitive duty on hatters' raw materials
has caused the business to dwindle. un
til now no mill in Bloomfield is running
on full time, and many of the employees
have sought work in other businesses.
The matters, being intelligent men, have
become enthusiastic tariff reformers and
are preparing to form Cleveland club.

IN the same room. ana elected the same
secretary. Those who know anything
about the matter know that the duty on
tin plate has been kept up and raised to
benefit not the tin plate makers, who
have never before existed, but the sheet
iron and steel men, both of whom have
been making enormous profits out of the
duty ON tin plate. which has kept mp the
price of steel sheets and of galvanized
iron for roofing purposes It was not
strange, then, that they met together
and formed this three headed trust, or
monster. The iron and steel manufac-
turers agreed to reduce wages in their
lines an average of 10 or 20 per cent. It
was generally believed that the tin plate
men would not dare to exercise their
united power to reduce wages, at least
until after election. or certainly until
the tin plate bill had been discussed in
congress; hut their greed and their
''gaul" has exceeded the expectations Of
the most sanguine.
These "McKinleyized" and "trustedr
industries consider it their especial privi-
lege to worry wage earners and con-
sumers. What do they care for the feel
ings or sentiments of the people? They
announced on June 2. 1892. that prices
will not be touched on in any way. y
And yet The Iron Age of June 16 saws
that the prices of sheet iron have been
advanced and that the prices of galvan-
lied iron are firmer, and IN few in
stances higher
