and Abroad-The Saco Water Power
Company Will Not Build Machinery in
the South = The Order Has Been Can
celled as a Result of the Democratic
Victory.
LONDON, November 14.-The Telegraph
continues it's publication of interviews
with prominent mercantile men on the
probable effect on trade of the carrying
out of the Democratic tariff theory in the
United States.
Secretary Helm of the Manchester
Chamber of Commerce is reported as
saying that since the defeat on the issue,
the Republicans also will want to reduce
the tariff, to conform with the will of the
great majority of the people of the United
States. He does not look for any speedy
change, and disagrees with his friend
Atkinson of Boston that the adoption of
free trade in America will destroy Eng
lish commerce. There will doubtless, he
says, be considerable temporary dislo-
cation Of trade, but each country will set
tie down to its special manufactures, and
the exchange of produce will be enor-
mously increased.
A leading Manchester manufacturer
and shipper of velvet and velveteens,
dealing largely with America, declared
that American purchasers insisted upon
having English goods at any price. 'The
lowering of the American tariff said
he, s'may have the effect of creating a
boom in the cheaper lines of goods, and
enable us to apply our beauteous, mimi
table English dyes to cheap lines. This,
perhaps, is an exaggeration, but Ishould
say that the relaxation of the American
tariff will SO stimulate the industry that
fifty mills will be erected at Oldham.
Our particular line will be improved.
and employment will be found for thous-
ands of additional hands,
The Belfast Linen Trade Society re-
port notes steadily improving shipments.
American exports" it says, will be
considerably increased, as a result of the
election, but not for some time"
The President of the Belfast Chamber
of Commerce, and Mr. Ewart the great
linen manufacturer, rejoice that the
tariff which would have become opera
tive against Irish linens in 1894, and
practically extinguish the trade, will
probably never be enforced. Other spin
ners welcome the expected moderation
of the tariff which has been sd detriment-
al to the export handkerchief trade.
The Telegraph, speaking editorialIy on
McKinleyism, Expresses the belief that
eventually it will become so dead that
even Republicans will wash their hands
of it and possibly adopt free trade, which
will be as unwelcome to English com
merce as McKinleyism. ''When the new
state of affairs has become settled, true
Americans" it says, twill Indignantly
fling aside the incubus of Irish intrigues,
Doodle hunters, log-rollers, McKinleyites
and the like, actuated by purely selfish
interests, and they will learn that one
country cannot find prosperity upon the
attempted ruin of another, nor insure
peace at home by encouraging rebellions
abroad,n

merchandise at all likely to carry germs
of the dread contagion. The Presidents s

days quarantine against all immigrants
sailing from foreign ports to the United

BIG TAXATION CONTESTS
Westinghouse Companies Claim Exemption
in Dauphin County Courts.


HARRISBURG, Feb. 29-Juoges Simonton
and Mcpherson, of the Dauphin County
Court, held a special term of court begin
ming to-day for the trial of State tax cases.
Among the most important were three
against the Westinghouse Airbrake Com
pany being claims of the State for taxes on
capital stock for 1888 amounting to SIS, 7SS 40;
for 1870 amounting to A,s4l Is. and for 1891
amounting to S52, ,3l4 81. NJ. L. Olmstead, OF
this city, counsel for the company, argued
that the company was not liable to any tax
whatever, being exempt as manufacturing
corporation. Attorney General HenSel ana
Deputy Attorney General Stranahan con-
tended that the act of 1859 e1empts only
companies which are organized exclusively
for manufacturing purposes, and that the
not Immediately connected with its manu-
Iacturing plant
The next cases called were against the
Westinghouse Electric Company, involving
similar taxation Tor the years 1855, 1859 and
1899, for large amounts. The grounds of con
test are the same as in the Airbrake Com
pany case. In addition the Westinghouse
counsel contend that this was a business
which could just as well be carried on in
New Jersey, where the tax is l mill, as In
Pennsylvania, where If liable at all, the
company is liable to mills, and he thought
it is the intention of the Legislature to
exempt just such companies as these and
encoura. e them to maintain their operations
in this State. If this company is to be taxed
and other manufacturing companies ex-
empted, then the act is unconstitutional,
because it does not impose uniform taxation.
The same counsel also argued several cases
involving the taxation OF Pullman's Palace
Car Company and the Woodruff Palace Car
Company. In ali tho above cases the Court
took the papers and reserved its decision.
