PROFITABLE PROTECTION.

The old hat-trimming cases are being
argued again before the federal supreme
court on some new wrinkle which he
lawyers have found. These cases arise
from dispute as to the amount OF duty
to be laid OH what are known to the
trade as hat trimmings, the importers
insisting that the treasury officials
charged higher rate than the goods
were legally liable to. The amount in
volved is many million dollars. wanna
MAKER is one Of the claimants to the
amount of about a million. When Mr..
WANAMAKER collects his money he
will, of course, as a good protectionist
and believer in the MCKINLEY dogma
that it is the foreigner of whom he
bought his trimmings who really paid
the tax, send the money to the dealers
of whom he bought. But he won't. he
paid the tax, and he will put what he
gets back into his own wallet and keep
it there. But it will be sheer gratu-
ity. The duties claimed by the govern
ment were paid under protest and
added to the cost of the goods, and have
been repaid to the WANAMAKERS by
the consumers. The importers are out
of pocket not cent by the tax, and will
be in pocket just the amount they can
get back from the treasury.

THEY WANT TO VOTE.
Extensive Strikes in Belgium
Caused by the Defeat OF the
Universal Suffrage Bill.
Parliamentary Building
From the Mob.

BRUSSELS, April 12.-Because of the
defeat Of universal suffrage $500 mir
ers went on strike yesterday. aud to
day the metal workers, printers, lith-
ographers and wood workers struck in
several of the suburban factories. ana
the factories are closed in consequence.
In the provinces. and especially in the
districts of Veruiers and Louvain, the
strikes are increasing among the work
ing people.
Immediately after the assembling of
the deputies today an excited crowd
gathered around the Palais de la Ma
ton. The incessant accession of small
groups soon swelled the crowd until 1T
pushed into the park and up and down
the Rue Royale. The parliamentary
building had already been surrounded
by unmounted police. AS the crowd
became more demonstraIive, squad
ron of police was called out and held
ready 10 charge. At 4 O'Clock the work
ingmen nearest the parliamentary build
ing raised shout for universal suffrage
and made rush to break the police
and the mob tried TO push up the
steps. The mounted reserves charged
with drawn swords. The mob met them
with repeated voileys of stones, but
eventually was forced back aud partly
dispersed. In the conflict several
policemen were struck with stones on
the head. Rioters were cut and tramped
OH. Repeated disturbances followed
between the Palais de la Nation
and the Boulevard du Regent. AS often
as they were dispersed by the police
the rioters tried to reassemble and
fight back with stones. In the
district around the parliamentary
Less serious disturbances in other parts
of the city were also followed by ar
rests. The deputies adjourned the de-

A TRUST IN A HOLE.
Affairs Of the DistiIlers and Cattle
Feeders Company in a
Bad Way.
One Million Dollars Will Be Re.
CURED to Meet Maturing
Obligations.

PEORIA, ILL.,, April 12.-The annual
tillers and Cattle Feeders company
was held here today. Contrary to the
expectations, the meeting was about as
quiet as ever known. Interest centered
in the report of President GIeenhut,
which was of more than usual
length. He first spoke of the pros
poets last fall of congress increasing the
tax, and the subsequent filling of all
warehouses of the trust. 1t was at that
time regarded as a good chance for prof
its. The, project failed, but President
Greenhut considers that no set of
men ever worked more con-
scientiously than did the di-
rectorS and officers Of the trust.
The company has been censured for
advancing the prices last fall, but those
who have passed through other tax agi-
tations know prices then advanced rela-
lively much higher than last winter,
Owing to the over-prOduction the
company is carrying three times
as much stock as ever before. This
used all the ready cash, and it has been
necessary TO borrow more. The item of
rebates alone which fall due III April,
May and June will exceed the amount
the company will receive from the same
source by S600.000, as the rebates now
coming due cover the large sales of last
October, November and December. This
was the cause of passing the last quar-
terIy dividend.
President Greenhut detailed the
formation of a pool last fall to protect
the stock, but subsequent attack by
the bears, with stories of congressional
investigation, petition to throw the
stock from the New York stock
exchange, rumors of bankruptcy
ceiver, caused a veritable SIAM
pede, which friends of the company
were pOwerless 70 check. The total
sales for the year ending March 81, were
45.0S7. 1854 gallons. Total earnings,
81, 49,, 6SS. Is; dividends and expenses
paid, $l.267, 1881. Cash and cash as
sets, IS, 1SS, $780, Is, against which there
are liabilities, rebates due the trade,
balance due on the four distilleries pur-
chased last fall, and floating indebted
ness amounting to S.. 06S 2S9.03.
President Greenhut recommended the
issuing and depoSiting of bonds secured
by first lien on the property to guar
antee to customers the payment of the
rebate vouchers. He opposes the pur-
chase of additional distilleries, as this
offers premium to the building
of new houses. The only safe way of
overcoming competition is to produce at
the lowest cost and sell direct to the
trade. He recommends the purchase of
necessary distributing establishments
and issuing of bonds to raise the
necessary capital. William N. Hobart
and Louis B. Green. of Cincinnati.
and John Boggs. of Terre Haute,
Indiana. were elected directors for
three years, and j. Walter Freiburg. of
Cincinnati, for one year. to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation of
Frank Curtiss, New York. A million
will be required to meet the recent
obligations.

THE LIST GROWING.
Every Report Adds to the Appal-
ling Death ROii.

KANSAS CITY, April 12.-As com
munication gradually becomes opened
up with the small towns and hamlets
through Kansas and Missouri which
were cyclone-swept yesterday, and as
the news, always making accessions
to the list of lives sacrificed and
property damaged, is received, the
real extent of the storm becomes known.
1t is impossible to get the names of the
victims, however, and in most instances
the accounts of destruction wrought are
incomplete. Even i'll some places where
communication has been restored news
is not available, the stricken citizens
being engaged with the important duty
of caring for the injured. in taking
care of the dead and in putting together
what was once their happy homes.
Fifteen people are known to have been
killed; thirty or forty were injured,
while numberlesS houses, as we'll as
smaller property, were destroyed. Much
stock was also killed. Fruit trees were
broken and twisted, and hay stacks were
scattered Ill all instances, and some
anxiety is felt lest there be a shortage
III fodder.
In Kansas the area of The storms was
bounded by the three tiers of counties
from the eastern border, nearly every
county suffering more or less. Mont
gomery county, i'll the extreme south
eastern portion, suffered the most
Parker, hamlet ten miles south of In
dependence, was almost totally de-
stroyed. Many houses were demolished
and many others were badly wrecked.
Walnut, a village in Crawford county, also
in the southwestern portion of the
state suffered seuerely in wrecked
houses, but there was no loss of life. A
meager dispatch from that place states
that it is feared that the loss of life in
the outlying country districts has been
great. A dispatch from Hiawatha
states that the storm wrought great
havoc in Brown county, in the north
western portion of the state. Several
towns in the county are more or less
damaged, and many lives are reported
lost.
Tie cyclone struck Garrett, Kan,
about O'clock. going from southwest to
northeast and leaving much debris in
its wake. Nobody was seriously hurt
here, though the houses of Walter Haw-
ley and Henry Sykes among others were
completely demolished. The towns of
Willis, Everest and POwhatan were part
ly demolished and several people injured,
though their names are unobtainable.
Near Robinson, E. p. Potion was struck
by lightning and killed. AT MaScotah
several houses were unroofed, and Mrs.

anomaly is often seen. 1t means that
for the first time in years men are again
using fundamental principles of gov

STEPNIAK PROTESTS.
The Russian Writes a Letter to
President Cleveland,

New YORK. April IL. -Stepniak, the
Russian patriot, has written letter to
President Cleveland. making a strong
protest against the Russian extradition
treaty. The letter deals with the i'm
possibility of securing under the new
treaty any pledge from Russia which
will make it certain that an eXtradited
person will be tried and punished only
for the OtfenSe for which he is obtained,
and quotes history to show how many
promises to that effect that have been
violated. He says that treaty is in vio-
lation OF all principles of justice, upon
which there is no divergence of opinion
i'll civilized countries. Stepniak gives
instances where the promises of trial
by jury have been violated in the past.
and says that should the treaty go into
operation, political offenders would be
eXtradited under criminal charges and
tried in Russia for political offenseS.
Stepniak characterizes his letter with
an appeal to the president and the
American people for justice to his OPP
pressed cOuntrymen.

STILL ICE BOUND.

Navigation Will Not Open at the
500 for Two Weeks.
SAULT STE MARIE, Mich, April 49,
The weather during the past week has
caused material difference in the
condition of the ice in st. Mary's river
and its approaches. Heavy gales of
wind have broken the ice at both
Whitefish point and Detour entrance.
The condition of the ice in 500 river
proper was such yesterday to allow a
three-ton load of wood to cross at Mud
lake, and is equally strong in Georgian
bay. Reports from life-saying sta
tons are to the effect that immense
fields of ice are in view, but in
a moving condition. With favor
able weather. st. Mary'S river may
open by April 26. but, comparing the
condition of the ice with that of last
year. the indications are for a later
opening than April &c. Local marine
men are of the opinion that boats will
be unable to reach here before April %
at the earliest, but that big freighters
might force navigation a few days
earlier than usual.

AN UNHAPPY FAMILY.

The chairman and secretary of the
city Republican committee have set on
foot movement to take an invoice of
they are at. The circular of Messrs.
STEVENS and RICHARDSON and the
resolution of the Eighth ward meeting
indicate that they are in chaos; and the
reform mayor is made the target of the
t0rrid state of mind. They charge that
the party has always been in condi-
ton of disruption, and that the eXecu-
tive is plunging it deeper into the slough
of deSpOnd. They assume that he was
elected to serve the interests of the Re-
publican party, and charge that he is
false to his trust. 1t is very pretty
family row, in which terms are not
minced. Those who took no part in
the s0-caled reform movement of a
year ago are enjoying the circus they
expected TO come sooner or later.
The mayor is now hopelessly tangled
in the mesheS of the conflicting ele-
mentS which formed the cohorts of his
election. The law and order people
opened the bail, claiming to have
brought him out as a candidate and ac-
complished his victory. They, too,
charge that he has been false to his
pledges. The other elements, which
never until last spring Joined hands
with the Republicans or the law and Or
der folks. have not yet been heard from,
and it would be interesting to know how
they regard the Republican claim that
WRIGHT was elected as Republican
and expected to lead that party to a
strong foundation.
The fall from the joy of the great
victory to be the football of those who
elevated him is painful to behold; butt
is no more than the reform mayor might
well have expected. The show is not
over; 1t has only begun.
