MINORITY REPORT
Republicans of the Ways and Meal
Committee on the Wilson Bill.

Republicans of the Ways and Means
Committee on the Wilson Bill.
WAsHINGTON, Dec - The report
of the minority members of the ways
and means committee on the tariff bill
has been made public.
The first part of the re ort discuss
ing the bill generally was prepared by
ex-Speaker Reed. The other members
of the minority, Messrs Burrows,
Payne, Dalzell, Hopkins and Gear,
prepared the portion of the report
dealing with special features. The re-
port says:
The most surprisin; thing about this BILL
which we will treat OF in detail somewhat later
Is the fact that this proposition to raise the
revenue Will lower the revenue of this country
s14,OJO,0OO below the revenue OF lSJ3 which
was only s2,0O0000 above our expenses. This
and the other fact that by this bill the large-
part of the burden of taxation is transferred
from foreigners and brought to our own cit-
Zens should always be kept in mind during the
discussion.
Had the committee in making what the
chairman on the floor of the house called a
political bill followed the plain, uncompromis-s
ing declaration of the party which they repre-
sent, and abolished protection, giving US tar
III 1or revenue only. our task in commenting
upon the result of the committee efforts
would have been more simple. The bill would
then have been straightforward manly at
T. mpt to carry out pledges, and would have
placed IN issue two great principles, and have
led TO clear and comprehensive discussion.
so lar, however, has the committee departed
from the demands Of the national convention
we should have been much tempted to borrow
phrase from their own platform and desig
nate the Dill as 'cowardly makeShift," were

STEVENS REPLIES.
The Ex-Hawaiian Minister Answers
President CieveIand's Message.


AUGUSTA, Maine, Dec. 22.-Ex- Min
ister Stevens has made the following
reply to President Cleveland's message
and his criticisms of Mr.. Stevens Off
cial conduct:
Il repeat here what has been amply
verified again and again, that neithe<
by force nor the threats of force, nor
by any action of mine was the fall OF
the monarchy precipitated. From the
hour entered on my duties as the
head of the United States legation to
the termination of my official respon-
slbillty, l maintained the determina-
ton to call on the naval commander
for aid only in the event that Ameri-
can life and property were in danger
Cautiously but formally, perhaps
sometimes too silently, l made this
my fixed rule of action, not only to
the representatives of the queen, but
to the leaders of the parties who saw
no safe alternative for the welfare of
the islands but in the abolishment of
the monarchy
IF President Cleveland sees ft to
make point against my official con-
duct that months before the events of
last January had advocated annexa-
tion, he deliberately and purposelv
conceals that which / SAID in my dis
patch in November, 1892, which was
a confidential statement to the state
department of the true condition of
affairs In Hawaii, report Of facts
which by the established rules and
practice of diplomacy | was in duty
bound to make known to my govern
ment"

 Canals, bitches

The above cut illustrates an AUTOMATIC WATER GATE, to regulate and keep in subjecton the rise of water in canal, due to an over-abund- ant flow, or to sudden rises in the canal owing to severe rains or storms.
 It is particularly valuable to have such a Water Gate placed in lower bank of canal at such points along its line Where there are Ravines, Gullies, Arroyos, Foot Hills, Buttes, or Tableland as any rains or storms bring down at such points surplus of water that is very dangerous to the banks of canal. The Waste Gate, however, will prevent such damage, as it is
 SELF-ACTING AND A PERFECT SAFETY VALVE Relieving the canal, at short intervals of it's sur plus water, thus preventing the washing away of banks, and causing great damage generally, not alone to canal, but property owners all along the line, who may suffer or less damages there after for the want of water owing to the damaged condition of canal, and while such repairs are being made. Not only is it valuable to relieve canal of its surplus water, to prevent damage and ex- pense, but by it's use the first cost of canal con- structon will be materially lessened as the banks need not be made so high or wide
 The device is extremely simple, and compara- lively inexpensive. Its plan of operation is this:
 There is pipe fastened to an opening in the vertical gate, l. When the body of water rises to the level of the upper end of pipe, 2, water runs freely into the tank, 3, which is immediately filed thus overbaancing the weight, 1, which is on the other end of lever, 5, thus forcing open the gate which suddenly relieves the canal of a large sur plus of water. When body of water recedes below a certain level, no more water is admitted to the tank; it therefore empties itself by small faucet opening, 6, at the bottom; this being done, the weight overbalances tank, and brings down the lever, which, being rigid to the swinging gate, closes it. This operation continues at short in tervas, so long as the body of water keeps rising over certain level. The lever, gate, pipe and tank are all rigid, and hinge, pivot, hori- zontal shaft. The gate Hume or box can be made any height, width, or length desired The gate can be hinged between any bulkhead without box.
 The Water Gate is a Perfect Safety Valve, and is to body of water what safety valve is to steam. They can be made any size, corresponding with body of water and size of canal. It is secured by letters patent, and for sale only by

BUZZARDS BAY, Mass, July S.-Mr.
Cleveland is slowly recovering from rheu-
matism which has caused him so much
trouble and which has been used as the
basis for alarming rumors concerning his
health. DR.. Bryant. whv is still in at
tendance at Gray Cables and Secretary
Lamont. who acts as BIT. Clevelsnd's
mouthpiece both say that there is nothing
the matter with Mr.. Cleveland except
rheumatism, and that it is yielding to

came East on visit. and will remain al

said this evening that Mr.. Cleveland con-
tinues to improve. and that his ILL
ness has been made TO appear more
serious than 1t is. The President Is no
longer contined TO his room. He walks
about the house and the plaza although
