laws now stand, cannot be administered

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-It Is not i'm
probable that the ways and means COM
mittee will soon report bill making an
important revision OF the iron and metal
schedule. After consultations with his
colleagues on the committee, Mr.. Stevens
OF Massac chusetts, yesterday introduced a
bill to place iron ore and scrap iron on
the free list and to reduce the duties on
manufactures OF iron and other metals.
The first section OF this bill places iron
ore, scrap iron and scrap steel on the free
list after october l next, but provides
that nothing shall be deemed scrap iron
OF scrap steel except waste or refuse iron
or steel fit only to be manufactured.
The second section provides that after
said date pig iron and like metals shall
be subject to a duty OF one and one half
tenths oil cent per pound, which is
- 80 per ton-just half the present rate.
The third section provides that bar
iron and structural iron and steel shall
be subject to duty of half cent pound
or s1l 20 per ton.
The fourth section provides that after
the same date steel rails, etc, shall be
subject to a duty OF three tenths OF a
cent per pound or s6.72 per ton.
The NTH section provides that after
said date no rate OF duty imposed by tho
articles embraced in tho metal schedule
Of the Mckinley bill shall exceed 80 per
centum ad valorem.
Mr.. Stevens, in explaing his bill, said IL
was a comprehensive measure embracing
the whole metal schedule, and that the
rates imposed on the articles were about
one half OF the rates provided for in the
Mckinley act. Notwithstanding this,
however, they were more than sufficient
TO cover the whole difference i'm the cost
OF production OF such articles in this
county as compared with that OF Great
Britain.
The facts upon which the bill Is framed
are based upon the late reports OF the
commiss ioner OF labor Carroll ID. Wright,
upon the cost OF production OF manufac-
lures OF iron and steel in this country and
in Europe. "This bill" said Nr. Stew
ems. "does not limit the tariff to the dif-
ference in wages, but covers the whole
increased cost OF production in this
county,

DESCRIPTION.

South Auburn Is just south ofAuburn, direct
ly at the junction of the y. ", p. and B. and
the Pawtuxet Valley Roads. TO miles south
of Providence. Running time IA to 20 min
utes. Fare under cents. The HANDSOME
-aH4- 4-GQMAqp44t-S-A new sta+ieA-eA- the 7ere--
perty is now nearly completed.
The estate is one of the most beautiful
in its natural features that could well
be imagined. over one hundred acres
of level or gently rolling land, nearly
half of which is clear and open, the rest light
ly wooded. The entire property admits of
good drainage, is high and thoroughly dry,
with sandy sub-soil. 1t is indeed virtually a
part of the thrifty and attractive town of
Auburn, and therefore lies directly in the line
Of growth from Providence. 1t would within
short period naturally increase in value,
even il unimproved. Under thorough deve-
lopment, therefore, it is bound to be extremely
valuable property TO hold. We bought at
farm prices and shall for time give buyers
the benefit.
