AMERICAN PIG IRON.

On Monday morning free-trade contem-
porary printed a communication the pur-
pose Of which was to show that the duties
on pig iron crippled the iron manufacturing
business in California and only served to
enable the iron-pToducerS of PENNSYLVANIA
to make larger profits. The free trade
writer assumed that it would be better to
open the American market to foreign pig
iron with view 10 the cheaper production
OF the finished article. On the same day
there arrived In port vessel with $50 tons
OF Alabama pig iron as part OF her cargo
Samples OF the iron have been tested and
found exactly as good as Scotch iron. The
supply is practically inexhaustibie, and the
cost at the furnace about the same as of the
Scotch variety. But the Scotch iron can be
brought TO this city for 50 40 tor, while it
costs Alabama iron So 10 to get to New
York and IS to get from New York to this
city. OF course. those rates are not perma-
nent. When it shall appear that there is
any considerable quantity of freight be-
tween seaports on tue Gulf of Mexico and
San Francisco vessels will come direct and
lower freight rates viii follow. One year
with another California consumes about
10000 tons of pig iron. The prices range
from S24 TO $50. IL the cost Of pig iron at
the furnace is no greater in Alabama than
in Scotland there is handsome profit in
shipping iron from Alabama to San Fran
cisco at S24 per ton. With vessels plying
direct between the Alabama point of ship
ment and San Francisco the freight rate
should not be greatly in excess of rates be-
tween Glasgow and San Francisco. The
fact that IS ton is charged for transport
ing iron from New York to San Francisco
gave color to the oft-repeated assertion that
railroad companies have something to say
about freight rates round the cape. There
is good deal of difference between So from
New York and 81 10 from Glasgow. Less
than one-balf of this difference should cover
the greater cost OF shipping in American
vessels. The present tariff of SO ~ ton
on pig iron does not cover the greater
charges for freight on American iron. But
1t is clearly possible TO reduce American
freight rates 10 a point which will give
American producers of pig iron decided
advantage in our market

OUJB ERN POLITICS

1t will be well, perhaps. for Republicans
TO listen warily TO the voice of the Southern
politician. who processes to think that the
Republicans may carry several Southern
States in November. The chairman of the
National Committee Of the anti-Sub-Treas-
my Alliance has expressed tire opinion
that Southern opposition to the thrd-party
movements the interest show" II may be
partially shown. but there is probably
enough reality to secure the Democratic
party in each and all of the Southern States
votes enough TO elect their several electoral
tickets. III the Northern members of the
third party should become convinced that
the SoutHern movement is sham, MANY of
them would decline TO be used to elect n
Democratic President by a solid South and
Two or three Northern States. The feeling
that was eYlneed in the South against the
force bill pEecludes the hope Of break In
the Southern column until by one means or
another the colored Republicans are enabled
to vote and to have their votes counted as
cast. II is clear that at present the race
issue is dominant in the South. BY some
process OF reasoning they have persuaded
themselves that the enforcement OF this
constitutional right of the coiored man to
vote i'll bring with it the supremacy in
politics Of that race. On this point the
North thinks the South In error In all the
Northern States wealth and intelligence are
influential factors In politics. Without COM
pulsinn Northern employees stand by their
empowers on national Issues in the belief
that their interests are identical. Is the

SPECIAL INTERESTS.

The Democrats propose to admit raw
wool free and retain duties on the manu-
features of wool. They propose also to
admit cotton-ties free and TO retain duties
on the raw material of which c0tton-ties
are made. In these two instances their
tariff policy is reversed. In respect to wool
they would admit the raw material free and
tax the foreign finished article; in respect
to cottOn-ties they would admit the finished
article free aud tax the foreign raw mate
rial. The Republican minority report well
says that 1t is difficult to imagine reason
why the crude article Of iron should be SUBJ
ject to duty and the finished product ad-
mitted free. OF course with iron subject to
duty and cotton-ties free, the manufacture
of cotton-ties in this country would cease
These ineongruIties of legislation can only
be accounted for on the supposition that tie
Democratic committees are giving especial
consideration 10 local interests. They pay
the greatest attention to the clique that
makes the most noise. The wool-manufac-
turer clamors for free wool and for duties
on the manufactures of wool, and the voice
OF The w0ol-manufacturer is more potential
than the voice Of the wool grower. But
the eotton-grower has so far made more
noise than the manufacturer of cotton-ties,
and his superior lung power is rewarded by
favorable report from the Democratic
Committee of WAYS and Means

GOLD GOING TO EUROPE.

When the export OF gold to Europe ceased
about six months ago the belief was ex-
pressed that in few months the greater
part of it would come back in the succeed
ing six months. But very small proper
ton OF il has returned, and exports have
again set in. There was a gold export
amounting to about $4,000, 600 reported in
the first six months of last year, while the
net imports for the succeeding five months
were only $21. 972,0o4 Assuming that the
Imports Of the remaining one of the six
months were S4,000.0O0 the net gold ex-
ports for the year would be about
S45,000.000 But, as has already been said,
gold has begun to go to Europe again. The
balance Of trade is largely In our favor, and
yet we are losing the kind of money in
which balances are settled. The assump-
ton is that we are paying bonds held
abroad. The amount of gold American
tourists annually spend in Europe does not
account for the large difference between

Pledges Tammany support.

New YORK, June 25.-District Attorney
Nicoll, who was among the delegates who
arrived from the Chicago convention, was
asked if Tammany would support Clcvc-
land during the coming campaign.
"Clcvcland will get the hearty support
of Tammany," said Mr.. Nicoll, There
arc great many men in Tammany hall
with whom Cleveland was the first
choice in the convention. Tammany will
support him next November. If his cleo
tion depends upon Tammany he will be
elected. l think that Cleveland's ma
jority in this city will be the largest re.
ceived in number of years, and should
not be surprised if it ran as high as
10000"
