TO TEST PROTECTION.
Proposition to the World. Fair Manacemens
OF the Single Tax Club of Chicago.


CHICAGO. July The Single Tax Club OF
this city has decided to ask the worlds fair
officials for the adoption Of a system by which
il is believed the American people can be best
given practical illustration Of the workings OF
the tariff. To tins end the following letter will
be sent to Director General Geo. n. Davis:
The Chicago Single Tax Club respectfully
petitions and requests that on foreign eK-
hibits Of dutiable goods at the worlds fair the
selling price in the country from which the
goods are exported. the transportation charges
from point Of origin TO Chicago and the selling
price IN Chicago be stated separately, so that
visitors may be enlightened in reference 70 the
influence OF orr present system Of tariff taxa
tion and find out who paws the duty. We con-
ceive that neither political party can con-
slstently he opposed to this. the framer of
the existing tariff confidently asserts as the
faith Of his party that the foreign exporter
PAYS the tax. and the opposing party asserts
with equal confidence that the American con-
sinner pays the tax. 1t is respectfully sub.
mitted that the exposition can confer no more
important service to the American people than
20 aid In the solution OF this yexed and most.
important question
The director general Of the worlds fair has
forwarded 10 the Secretary of State at WASH
ington the following communication in relation
TO the ruling permitting foreign exhibitors to
attach price placards to their exhibits at tho
fair:
"CHIcAao. June %. 1892
TO the Honorable, the Secretary Of State.
Washington. ID. c.
''SIR: The publication in England Of the letter
which had the honor 20 address TO the DEPART
ment under date of March IL, 1892. in reply to
the inquiries Of Consul Augier Of February 10.
1892. in behalf OF certain wooden manufacturers
of Rheims. has led TO the inquiry from the
British manufacturers whether NV letter wss
intended 20 revoke the permission previously
given 20 foreign manufacturers to placard their
exhibits with the prices at which they will be
sold in bond.
The paragraph in my letter of March II,
1892. which refuses permission TO the manu-
facturers Of Rheims TO placard their prices.
requested in the letter of Consul Augier, WAS a
mistake. and desire. therefore. TO have that
letter revoked by authority of the department,
and the following statement sent out 10 consular
officers A. the correct ruling in the case:
"'Foreign exhibitors in the world Columbian
exhibitions will be permitted 70 state upon
placards attached 20 their exhibits the prices at
which said products will be sold at the place Of
manufacture and also the prices in bond and
out Of bond, or exclusive and inclusive Of the
customs duties in Chicago
Asking that the same publication be given
by the department TO this correction was
given to my letter of March IL, 1892. have the
honor to be very respectfully yours.

THE FIRST OF JULY.
No Changes Today Because the New Ap-
propriation Bills Are Not Passed.

No Changes Today Because the New Ap-
preparation Bills Are Not Passed.
Usually the LIST Of July is a day Of great i'm
portance in the government departments.
Then the order Of things regulated by the
appropriation bill of the year that has ended
gives way to the new conditions as prescribed
by the appropriation bill for the ensuing year.
There is, perhaps, more money to spend. per-
haps more clerks to be employed and new
Offices authorized, which causes a readjust-
ment of the work. But this year the 1st of July is
Just like any other day. There is nothing new
Congress has not as vet passed the appropri-
alton bills for the current year and in conse-
quence business is conducted on the lines laid
down by the old appropriation bills.
The LIST of July or. at least, the usual effect of
attaining that date will be felt later on. when
the new appropriations become available. Ii
is not expected that there will be many
changes in the clerical force either in the wav
of decrease or increase. 1t is possible that the
departments will be obliged to get along with
less money than they had last year. but as the
act does not affect the pay of the employees the
reduction will hardly be felt in the sense of a
personal loss.

Agricultural Conditions.

The resolution introduced in the Senate last
April authorizing the agricultural committee to
inquire into the agricultural conditions Of the
country and the causes of the depression in the
prices of products, il there is any, was
the subject of discussion before
the agricultural committee today. The
resolution is very extensive in its
scope and contemplates an inquiry generally
as to conditions and circumstances affecting the
values of American farm products Of a staple
character, especially as 20 cotton, cereals, &C.,
and whether or not increased competition can
be successfully met by the planter
and farmer of the United States. IL is
expected the inquiry will be the most searching
Of its character ever attempted. win treat Of
the subject in all Its phases and viii occupy the

He Will Probably Resign to Participate in
the Campaign.


Mr.. Thomas H. Carter, the commissioner of
the general land Office, was at the department
this morning, which is practically his first sp-
pearance upon the scene of his official labors
since the convention at Minneapolis.
Mr.. Carter spent some days at
his home i'm Helena, Mont,
before returning to this city. He is in good
health, and, as the convention went his way,
his spirits are on the jubilant order. Mr.. Car
ter is thinking of giving up his position Of
commissioner to take an active part in the COM
ing campaign. He intends TO make an annual
report before resigning. and it is probable that
he will hand his resignation to the President
about July 20, to take effect about September L.
1t is highly probable that Mr.. Carter will be
o member Of the executive committee Of the
national republican committee, but whether he
retains his present position a. secretary of the
national committee is q matter that has not yet
been determined
