to light. He was apparently a prosperous

to be forged are: Thos. Malcolm, A; Nc,

LONDON, Nov. 25.-sir William Vernon

GELS conferences to expediate deliberations

high authority that if the conference is

Brussels show that opposition to prolonged
debates opened with the English delega-
ton. They only finally consented to sit on
each alternate day on finding that they
stood alone. The incident created an i'm

A New Tariff Idea.

Congressman Walker of Massa-
chusetts, is entitled to II copper
medal for a new view of the use of
tariffs.
Mr.. Walker is a shoe manufac.
turer and as such has had the ben.
eft of free raw material for years
but he is also II Republican, and
during the discussion of the free
wool bill, the other day, said in ef-
feet: at is not of the slightest in.
terest to manufacturer whether
we have free trade or protection
in fact the manufacturers would
be more prosperous under free
trade" Continuing Mr.. Walker
claimed that Congress in enacting
a high tariff was legislating for the
farmer and wage men and not for
the manufactures.
The foregoing is rank Repuhli-
can treason, and the men who had
the fat fried out of them to elect
Ben (h)arrison and the Reed Nc.

mediate steps to silence Massachu,

part of Sherman and this admin

driven out of. Ohio politics and all
those who sided with him are suf-
ficient punished.
The control of the delegation to

Importance to be fought for and as
a necessary step to that end the
capture of the political machine in
the state is now aimed at. There
are two Republican machines in
Hamilton county and the struggle
is as to which of the two shall eX-
tend its influence over the whole
state. A bill is before the legis-
lature for the reconstruction of the
W aterWorks of Cincinnati at an a.
vowed cost of $6,000,000 and prob
able cost of twice that amount. =.
That one of the two Republican
machines in Hamilton county
which gains control of the "big
money" to be spent on contractors
and Office holders will have a great
advantage over the other. For
aker's righthand man. George Cox,
had the bill drawn to suit him and
it was railroaded through the house
with provision placing the APP
pOintment of the board to manage
the funds in the hands of Mayor
Mosby, who can be depended on to
make matters all right for "CoXy,
old boy" Tt was against this dis
position Of the funds and patronage
that Sherman's letter was directed.
The head of the rival machine in
Cincinnati is Amor Smith, is fed
eral Office holder by favor of Sen
ator Sherman and who looks after
Sherman's interests as well as those
Of the president who gave him his
commission at Sherman's request.
The Sherman crowd are putting
their trust in the senate, where they
hope to have the bill amended by
placing the appointing power in
the hands OF some one antagonistic
to Foraker's friend Cox.
The leaders of the two Hamilton
county gangs are now in Columbus
waging bitter war on each other
and tonight, it is understood, an
army of Cincinnatians will move
upon Columbus to fight under the
opposing banners and endeavor to
win votes for the bill rs it stands,
or for an amendment that will es.
sentially alter its character. The
Amor Smith party are working
now among the Republican sen
ators who voted for Sherman and

ply, while the other half must be

quently happens that they are able
to recoup from our wool producers
something of the taxes paid on inn
ported wool. They do this by the
use of shoddy waste and cotton as
substitutes, and they can some
times do it by the familiar oper-
alton of Clearing" the market
through their combinations.
In the long run, however, neither
this nor the tariff has any per-
msnent effect on the prices of the
homegrown wool. In the absence
of combination among producers,
and in the presence of the increased
use of substitutes, it follows the
prices of the outside market. The
fallacy and injurious effects on the
tariff against trade and COM

case of wool.

WOOL TAXES.

In his opening against the Nc
Kinley bill, Mr.. McMillin of the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee showed that, as Il result of
the high taxes on trade, shoddy
and other adulterants have taken
the place of the wool of 20,000,0OO
sheep in the manufacture of al
legged woOllens sold in this country.
This is about two-thirdS of the total
number of sheep in the United
States.
This goes long way towards ac-
counting for the fall in the price of
wool in the United States under
the higher tariff. Instead of buy
ing more wool, the manufacturers
use more shoddy and more cotton,
and, the demand for wool being
thus lessened, the price fails. But
where combination or trust can

hibitive tariff is the only means OF
creating such an artificial scarcity

duced all the wool needed in this
country the price would be the
same here as abroad, tariff or nc

than abroad, tariff or no tariff.

his sudden departure is given, although 1t is re-
ierred to somewhat ineoherently. AS one of his
warmest friends stated TO a Posi- INTELLIGENcER
reporter, it serves to confirm the idea that has
forced itself upon those most intimately con-
nected with him In business and family mat
tiers. that his mind has been temporarily unset
tied and in a fit OF dependency he wandered
off. he hardly knew where.
He says he will remain where he ia few days,
but does not express an intention of returning
home or going elsewhere He has been tele-
graphed and written to. asking him to return
Immediately, ard 1t 10 hoped he will do so.
Mrs. Bixby hopes to again hear from him in a
day or so, and Is, OF course, overjoyed to know
that her husband is alive, as she had almost
given him up for dead. Ii he does not start
home soon his friends will either send one OF
their number to accompany him home or ar
range with some OF the officials of the railroad
to accomplish that service for them.
He has been engaged in mining explorations
and developments, mostly Of iron ore. during
the past summer and fall, and has lost consid-
cradle share of his Accommodations. Until quite
lately he has been confident, even enthusiastic,
in his expressions that he should soon realize q
large fortune from these mines, but lately he
appeared to realize that his hopes were ground
less. and has been moody and Respondent, and
to this may be ascribed his strange conduct in
leaving without telling his family friends
anything of his intentions or movements.
