DrNaLEYs REPLY
To McMillin Yesterday on the
Tariff Issue.

Tariff Issue.
WASHINGTON, March 10.-McMil-
lin spoke for an hour and a half.
and then Dlngley took the floor to
reply on behalf of the minority Of
the ways and means committee.
Dingley ridiculed tue Democrats for
their failure TO do more than attack
three little items Of the Mckinley
tariff out of $500, after threats and
promises TO sweep every line and
word Of this "unholy tariff" from
the statute books aud substitute a
measure of tariff" from which
shall be eliminated all ''class legisla-
tiou," all robbery" Continuing,
Dlngley said:
"rheae three little bills embrace
all the tariff reform the Democratic
majority Of 40 has offered in re-
demption Of all the pledges and
promises made LefOre the last elec-
tion. The voters who have been
cheated once would like to know,
and they have right to be ih.
formed and here by the l40 Demo
cratic majority Of this house, exactly
what kind of tariff bill the Demo
Gratis would substitute for the ex.
isting Mckinley tariff. The peo
pie demand this Democratic
house shall present such a
measure as they profess to be
ready to substitute for the Mckinley
tariff before election, not after. They
ask that they have full information
of exactly what is proposed while
they have a chance 10 express al
opinion ON it, and not after it is toe
ate. The fact that the Democratic
eaders have not and will not pre-
sent such a complete tariff measure
is practically confession that they
dare not let the people see wha'
they propose to do"
Dingley defended the Mckinley
act eloquently and at length. HI
argued that the t, rec bills proposed
by ths Democratic majority of thu
ways and means committee coulC
result In nothing but Injury to the
farmer, aud said:
"The free wool bill proposed fre'
trade for the most universal produc
of the farm, aud continued protec
ton for the manufacturers of wool
1t would destroy the price and de
stroy the wool industry. Ever
evil prediction relating to the Nc
Kinley tariff has been disproved bI
the march of events. Every pre-
diction of its benefits has been mad,
good. Protection has more thar
justified policy which has done 81
much to make the country the lprg
est AGRICULTURAL manufacturing
mining, and most prosperous coun
try on earth, and Is here to stay"
Before the conclusion of Dingley'
speech the committee rose and thu
house adjourned.

CHICAGO, March 10.-Farmer l..
Williams, an inventor and patentee
of a process for making cordage
twine out Of paper, shot himself
through Il e breast and will prob
ably die. Williams left the Kelley
institute at Dwight four weeks ago,
and has acted strangely at times,
but was cured of the liquor habit.
After his wound was dressed today,
Williams suddenly became furious
and tore the bandages off. He
fought the doctor like a madman,
and tried to jump out Of window.
Finally Williams, who had suffered
greatly from the loss of blood, gave
up and was put to bed, but again
arose, tore open his wounds, and
struck the physician II terrible blow
over the head. The police were then
Summoned, and Williams was taken
to the detention hospital. 1t is said
that Williams insanity is due tC
persecution by the National Cord
age company, whose agents have
harassed him and broken up his
plans for establishing a twine
factory.

Battle to Take Place at 2 O'clock
This Afternoon-The Police
in Readiness.

AN0eNAAAA@NtAff
PORTLAND, March 10.--China-
town was yesterday thrown into q
fever Of excitement by naming
bulletins that were posted at the
corner Of Second and Alder streets,
second and Oak, and other promi
uent street corners in the Chinese
quarters. The bulletins were
nothing more nor less than a chal-
lenge from the Sue Sing Tong COM
pany to the Flip Sing Tong company
to meet them in pitch battle at 2
O'Clock this afternoon. The news
was all over Chinatown In q few
minutes, and while crowds Of ex-
cited Chinamen gathered around
The bulletins to read and discuss
their contents, others hurried to the
city Jail TO apprise the police. There
was a constant stream of ChinameD
pouring into the city Jail from the
time these declarations of war were
posted until late In the evening. All
understood their dangerous signifi
canoe and desired the police to be
ready for threatened war.
The district attorney and the
police officials held a conference al
the city jail last night and it was
decided to hold all the police In
readiness at 1870 O'Clock this after
noon. 1t was thought best to be
prepared for any emergency. The
police themselves expect trouble, a.
this is the first official declaration OF
war from one highblnder society to
another, and pedestrians might just
AZ well give Chinatown wide berth
at the hour trouble ls expected thit
afternoon.
Sixteen Cinnamon belonging to
the Sue Sing Tong society came vi
from San Francisco several weeks
ago, and about dozen more arrived
Tuesday evening. Among those
who came first is a Chinaman who
is said to be fighter from sway
back" Cinnamon ia pointing hin
out to white men say, cheap bis
fighter, big man, alice same Johr
Sullivan This man Is said to hav'
a record as fighter in San Francisco
and he is considered as a disturbing

THE FIGHTERS.
Fitzsimmons is Anxious to Meet
Ted Pritchard.


New ORLEANS, March 10.-The
news cabled from London that Ted
Pritchard was willing to fight Fitz-
simmons in America in ten weeks
naturally created no small degree OF
interest here. Heretofore Pritchard
has not shown Willingness to come
to America, and Fitzsimmons was
thinking seriously of going to Eng
land after the British champion, but
as there il more money in the states
for the fight the Australian will pro-
bably be willing to remain here
Carroll andFitzsimmons came to the
city from the bay yesterday. Carroll
said: "Oh, yes, have seen the tele-
gram from Pritchard. 1 am speak

COST CT LIVING.
It Is Greatly reduced by the Mckinney
Law.

It Is Greatly Reduced by the Mckinley
Law.
Senator IIiscock's able speech in the
senate on lho cost Of living under the
Mckinley law is attracting much atten-
ton through the country. 1t is such Il
complete reply to Senator Ca.'lislc's ar
gurlcnt of an increase in cost Of living
under the Mckinley law that its state
ments are found to be very important.
In it he shows that whatever increase
there is in the cost Of living in this III
try Is caused entirely by an increase in
prices Of such articles of food as are
produced by the farmers of this coun-
try. The increased demand abroad for
farm products and high prices paid fo~
the same, naturally produce an in.
crease in prices to nsume here. In
making up the totals Of tho cost Of liv-
ing Senator Carlisle had included arti.
cles Of food.
In the articles Of daily use affected by
the tariff, however, such as clothing,
fuel, tools, lumber, house furnishing
goods, ETC., Senator Hiscock shows that
there has been a general reduction in
the cost to BY Senator Car
isles own figures, he shows that, aside
from articles of food not affected by the
tariff, there has been q reduction in cost
of living amounting to S47, 600, eco in
the period covered by Investigations Of
the senate finance committee.

The latest betrayal practiced BY

The latest betrayal practiced BY
the independent ring is the knitting
oEJobn Gray. the nominee If his
party for commissioner. All along
Mr.. Gray has been promised the
support Of the party and has been
making n good campaign. He knew
nothing of the premeditased bctray.
al conceived by the gang up to the
bour it was too late to file his certi-
icate which the gang held back to
beat him. This dirty deal was
worked by Ronell, Miller, Kirk
and other ringsters who are capa-
ble of just such tricks. The COURIER
while favoring and believing in the
election Of Mr.. Main, believes in
treating men fair, no matter what
their politics. A more fragrant con.
ldence game could not lie played
than that on John Gray. But it is
typical o. the crowd which runs the
independent party. Gray was sac
riticed to satisfy the whims Of these
leaders. Men who have cast their
fortunes with the Independent party
hoping to purify politics are respect
fully invited to study the betrayal
of John Gray.
