Saine Democrats want manufactured
it.mber protected, Ohio Democrats want
to retain II tariff on wool. Alabama,
Georgia and Virginia Democrats want
it retained on coal and iron ores, not
withstanding their party platform de-
clares the tariff on imports for protective
purposes robbery and violation of the
constitution. They are each reconciled
to have the constitution violated and the
robbery perpetrated for their own bene-
fit. Republicans say we must have
some $500, 900 annually to run the
government of our own great country
and large part of it must be raised by
Il tariff on imports. This tariff should
be so laid, that it will contribute to the
best interests of our people as a whole
north, south, east and west, and placed
upon those articles that shall best build
up our industries and increase bust
ness. This Republicans have done, and
now Democrats propose to undo it.
a large gathering of lumbermen and
cumberland owners was held at city hall,
Bangor, Saturday, to take action to pre-
vent if possible, the removal of the tariff
on lumber The gathering was non politi-
cal. A committee consisting of ex-Gov.
d. F. Davis, Hon. Lysander Strickland,
Hon. J. p. Bass, F. w. Aver and John
Cassidy were appointed to consult with
men in other sections of the State, that
be sent to Washington to prevent the
adoption by Congress of that portion of
the Wilson tariff bill putting lumber on
may well be alarmed at the situation.

FINANCE AND COMMERCE.
New York Stock Market.

New YORK, Dec. 13.-The dullness OF
the stock market was relieved TO day
by a sharp advance in General Electric
and o slump In American Sugar. The
former figured for 81 900 shares and the
latter $4,000 shares out Of grand total
of 14S, TBS shares. General Electric Was
in demand throughout and rose from as y
to 80 on reports that the financial con
dition Of the company had improved,
thus disposing of the rumors about the
inability of tho concern to meet it's
maturing interest obligations. Sugar
opened at S0H, ex-dividend Of per
cent, and was quickly forced down to
1877.
The stock was sold by tho Boston
house but the opinion in that board was
that the orders originated nearer home
and were piled for effect on the other
list. The strength of General Electric
however, upset the plans Of the sellers.
The stock subsequently, got back to
1913, net loss Of e per cent. for the
day. Western Union was weaker on
the statement submitted TO directors 1T
their meeting to-day which shows an
estimated surplus for the one-fourth
ending December 81, 1893, of Sl21,73S,
against an actual surplus for the CORES
ponding period in 1892 Of 1854 ,5S3. The
usual dividend was declared.
The general market ruled firm from
start to finish, but the variation in
prices called for no special mention
The reduction in the rates for sterling
exchange, which operates against fur
ther gold exports, helped to streng then
stocks. London bought about 10, 900
shares for favorites, including ST. Paul,
Louisville and Nashville, and little
Erie and Denver preferred. The market
closed firm at an advance ranging from
1903 per cent. The latter in General
Electric, Western Union, New England
and Linseed Oil lost A@9S for the day.
United States Rubber preferred rose
395 to S9%; Chicago Junction and Union
stock yards, to 9s, and American
Tobacco preferred, 2 to 90. Railway
and miscellaneous bonds were higher.
Sales listed: Stocks, lis, 900 shares: un.
listed, 10000. Treasury balances:
Coin, 500, 399, GOO; currency, S27,3 600.
