BOTH THEIR THROATS CUT.
Terrible Suicide of Couple Who Had
No Friends.

GALLATIN, Tenn, Feb. 13.-A most de-
plorable tragedy is reported from Port
land, q small town in the northern portion
of this county near the Kentucky line.
Elyas Pardue, well-known young farmer
of that neighborhood, and his wife were
found at their home this morning, lying
dead on the floor of their bed chamber
with their threats cut from ear to ear.
The circumstances are such as to create
the belief that the deaths were both the
result OF deliberately planned suicide.
Both bodies were lying on pillows on the
floor and near Mrs. Pardue was a bloody
razor, with which the CHASTITY deed had
been committed. The fact that the razor
lay nearest Mrs. Pardue has led to the
conjecture that she was the last to use the
instrument OF death. in fact this theory
is supported by note which is said to
have been found in the room written in
Mrs. Pardue's hand and signed by her, in
which'it was stated that she and her hus-
band had no friends and as he had con-
Guided to commit suicide she would take
her own life rather than live without him.

THE TARIFF ON WooLENs.
Agreement on the Rates of Duty Propose
by the Springer Bill.

Agreements on the Rates of Duty Proposed
by the Springer Bill.
The democratic members of the wavs
and means committee held another
prolonged conference on the Springer
wool bill today. The result was an
agreement on the rates of duty to be
imposed in the bill on manufactures of
wool. The democratic members have al
ways been agreed on the proposition that
wool should be admitted free of duty, but
differed to some extent as to the rates
which should be imposed upon manu-
features of wool. The result of the con-
ferences is favorable to the low tariff men,
bers, the committee reducing all duties
below forty per cent. under the present
law as well as those above 40 per cent.
The agreement reached has yet to be
voted on as a whole, the action taken to-
day being taken on each paragraph of the
wool and woolen schedules separately.
The greatest rate OF duty provided for is 45
per cent. on ready-made clothing, dolmans,
jackets, listers and wearing apparel on
which under the present laws 60 per cent.
duty is imposed. Those are the articles
on which the greatest amount of labor

left above 40 per cent, which was the
uniform rate proposed by the Mills bill on
wooden manufactures of all kind. The

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13-The silver men
have secured about one hundred and
twenty names to their petition asking that
the silver bill be made special order in
the house. There are large NUMBER of
members absent from the house, and for
this reason there are many members to
whom the petition has notyet been present.
ed. None but democrats who il is believed
will vote for free coinage are being asked
TO sign. About fifteen of those to whom
the petition has been handed have de-
clined to sign on one ground or another.
Some have said that they thought it was
giving undue prominence to the silver
issue and making it paramount to the
tariff question, and others that they
thought it might embarrass the
speaker. The silver men say that,
notwithstanding statements to the
contrary, they are confident of
their ability to secure consideration
for the bill. They are determined to put
every man in the house on record on the
question. With this object, if any dispo-
sition should be made apparent to pre-
vent vote on the bill, they will move
Its passage under a suspension of the
rules when an opportunity offers. This,
however, will not be attempted, except as
last resort. There is sentiment among
many members of the house, including
some unquestioned free coinage men, in
favor of an early report on the tariff bills
from the ways and means committee and
of keeping them before the country so rs
TO prevent giving undue prominence to
the silver question. 1t is not their pur-
pose, they state, to antsgonize silver but
10 have the tariff bills on the calendar so
that they can also be made special order
about the same time as the silver bill, the
latter, of course, to have right of way as
the prior measure in the order of report
TO the house.
