Senator Georges Resolution for an
Invest cation to Be Reported.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The Senate COM
mittee on agriculture to-day considered the
resolution Of Senator George relative to the
appointment Of o committee to inquire into
the cause Of the low price of cotton and the
depressed condition Of agriculture in the
cotton raising states and agreed to report

nature of a substitute, authorizing the com
mtttee to make a general investigation for
the purpose of ascertaining the present con-
dition of agriculture in the United States,
and the present prices Of agricultural prod
ucts, and if there be any of which the
prices are depressed, the causes of
such depression and the remedies therefor
The line marked out by the committee is to
appoint subcommittee to investigate 1.-THE
agricultural conditions of the cotton states
and to inquire also into the present state of
agriculture in the grain and meat produc-
ing states and territories, the aim being TO
cover the whole subject of agriculture with
view to determining what legislation, if
any, is necessary for the relief of the far
mers of the country. The resolution will

DEATHIN THE CIGARETTE
THE GOvERNMBNr ASKED TO PUT
ON A PROHIBITORY TAX.

Three New YORK Congressmen Asked
TO INTRODUCES Bills on the Subiect-A
Statement Sent on Showing the
Number Who Bave Died OF Become
Insane es the Result OF the Cigarette
Eabit.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12-The ways and
means committee Of the House of Repre-
sentatives will be petitioned TO prepare
bill invoking the paternai condemnation Of
the government upon the cigarette habit.
Representatives Cochran, Cummings and
Stahlneoker Of New York, all have in their
possession bills which they have been pets
toned to introduce, providing for the sup
preston Of the cigarette manufacture by
imposing an internal revenue Of $40 per
1000 on all imported or domestic ci-
garettes sold in this country.
A CAUSE OF DEATH.
Accompanying the memorial is a state
ment which says: "Clppings taken from
papers throughout the United States show
that during the past year there have been
about 100 deaths of young men, mostly
under 10 years OF age, from the effects Of
smoking paper-wrspped cigarettes; III some
cases there has been en- analysis of the
stomach. and in most instances there has
been found acid, phosphorus and arsenic,
which is largely used in the manufacture OF
cigarette paper.
DRIVEN INSANE.
Also the same clippings will show that
about 100 men have been consigned to in
sane asylums for the same cause. There
has been, in about forty different states,
law passed prohibiting the sale Of paper
wrapped cigarettes to minors under 16 years
OF age, There has never vet been a chemist
OF any responsibility who has examined
paper-wrapped cigarettes who has not most
decidedly pronounced them injurious. The
internal revenue tax is now so cents per
1000 paper-wrapped cigarettes, for less
than 3-pounds weight per 1000 cigarettes.
TAX PROPOSED.
ITO accomplish what the different states
have, and are attempting to do-protect
young people by prohibiting their smoking
paper-wrepped cigarettes-a law should be
passed this congress making the internal
revenue tax $40 per 1.000aon oil paper wrap
ped imported or domestic cigarettes. This
would place them at price that children
could not pay and go further
than any state legislation can do and meet
with the approval of every man and woman
in the country" Following the memorial
are the names and former address OF over
200 people of various sections of the United
States, who have during the past year, died
or grown hopelessly insane, as the effect of
the cigarette habit.
Representative Cochran will file his bill
with the ways and means committee, of
which he is a member, for such action as
that committee may deem proper.

and their employees that the dispute arose

reinstate all their old hands, to pay union
wages to their employees and to employ all

there Is much rejoicing among the men.

have sought shelter. None Of the children
in Penza are allowed to go TO school. A
quantity Of grain for the famine sufferers

Alger's interest, but Gen. Alger's
explanation does not strike even
his friends as really explaining,

beyond repair. 1t is regarded as entirely
probable that Chairman Clarkson, whose
personal relations with President Harrison
are SO pleasant that he is asked to dine at

President Harrison under which he will
support President Harris0n's denomination
