BOEN'S MAIDEN EFFORT
THE SEVENTH DISTRICT CONGRESS.
MAN MAKES A SPEECH.
He Devotes Hut Little Attention to
the Tari6, His Address Being a
Plea for the. Fnrner-A Dill by Mr..
8Oen.

Washington, Jan. 16. - Congressman
Been delivered his maiden effort in the
house last evening, occupying an hour of
the time allotted for general debate OIL
the tariff. MIR. Boen, however, did not
debate the tariff question, prefacing his
remarks by the statement that he did not
intend to try to convince any one that
protection or free trade was the proper
governmental policy. His speech was for
the farmer, pure and simple, for some
sort Of legislation which would give him
an equal show with the manufacturer
under any schemet Of revenue or taxa
ton that might he in force. Commenc-
ing with the axiom about ''soil and toll
being the ultimate sources of oil wealth,
Mr.. Boen led his audience along to the
point where he could introduce bill Of
his own as the proper remedy for the
determinations under which the produc-
ing classes are laboring. Mr.. Boen's
hill recognizes the ancient system Of
barter which he contends must be re-
versed to meet the continued contraction
Of the currency. 1t provides very briefly
that manufactured articles coming to this
country in exchange for farm products
shall be admitted free of all charge for
duty save such as will create revenue
large enough to meet the actual expenses
caused by his system Of, exchange. If
this law were enacted, he argued, the
fill their little warehouse at Wall Lake
with wheat. This they would ship to
Liverpool in exchange for an equal value
in manufactured articles, and, since un-
der the law, wheat could be exchanged
for steel rails duty free, he thinks the
railroads might take wheat for their
freight charges, SO that the only money
Of account which would be necessary
would be enough to nay the insurance.
With such a law as this the Minnesota
Populist would not care how high or
how thick the Chinese wall of protection
might be, for the farmers would have
this convenient breach.
The consideration of the tariff bill
Mnder the 6ve-minutc rule was begun
to-day. Only three amendments were
disposed of, none of material moment.
The attempt Of Messrs. De Forest and
;Sperry Dems. Corn.) to secure the adop-

THE STORY NOT CREDITED
That the President IL Angry with
Secretary Carlisle and the senate.

The statement published in ono of the
New York papers this morning that Presi-
dent Cleveland is angry with Senator Cor
man and the Senate in general and with
Secretary Carlisle on account Of the situa-
ton in which the tariff bill has been placed,
and that he Is expected to give some public
expression to his anger. which will probably
be followed by the resignation Of Mr.. Car
Isle, is treated in Washington, both at the
Capitol and elsewhere as too absurd to be
seriously considered. 1t is said that 1t may
be readily enough assumed that Mr.. Cleve-
land is not pleased with the result thus far
Of the attempt at tariff legislation, but all
those who are in a position to form an opin-
ion as to his sentiments and purposes treat
as absurd the idea of his feeling any such
resentment as indicated by the story. In a
general way, 1t is understood to be his de-
sire that Congress should do the best they
can in the matter as soon as possible. the
element of time being regarded by him as
important. According to the general un-
derstanding. he is not particularly dissatis-
fed because of a duty being put on sugar,
which he regards as a proper revenue arti-

ORDNANCE DISCHARGES
Of Big Guns Ends Work For
Mechanics.
More Dismissals to Follow Unless An
Rumors at the Yard.

Twenty-eight machinists and helpers were
discharged from the ordnance shop yester-
day. There IL nothing sensational in this
matter. and. although there Is quite a good
deal of talk among the victims of unjust
discrimination, partisan preferences, etc.,
this conversational bitterness seems not to
be warranted by the facts. Work In the
gun shop has been Stacking up for some
time OF the twelve 13-inch guns ordered
by the Navy Department ten have been
completed and the remaining two are upon
the lathes In an advanced stage. All the
6-inch weapons ordered have been finished,
and many other orders upon the ordnance
department have been filled or are soon to
be. Thus 1t became necessary to discharge
the men or to pay them for performing no
work. There was. substantially. no pro-
ductive work for them to perform. The
Star man did not get this information from
the foreman or the officers, but from the
men who today are laboring over the great
guns. They seemed hopeful. but feared
that other discharges would soon follow for
the same reason. If the department did
not order q number of new guns a very
heavy dismissal would be necessary in the
fall. According to the regulations Of the
navy. when discharges are to be made from
shop the foreman has authority to name
those who shall go. He must however
base MS decisions upon the efficiency
records of the men. and he with the lowest
degree OF excellence shall be dismissed first.
Although there is an opportunity for the
foreman to show preferences, 1t Is not
thought by the workmen with whom the
reporter talked that any have been shown
In the matter of the late discharges The
ordnance officers could not countenance
such proceeding, and II charges Of par
dality should be proved against the fore
man his dismissal would be but the question
OF Few hours. Several of the men whose
names were stricken from the roll yester-
day We're at the yard this morning with re-
quests Tor reinstatement, but these requests
were unayailing. The Star man was told
unomcially that should 1t again be neces-
sary to Increase the force these fallen EN-
ployes would be allowed the preference.
There was q story at the yard that the
Secretary OF the Navy had sent to Com
mandant Howell notice to reduce the ex-
penses Of the yard $1,000 per month, and
that similar notice had been sent to the
commandants Of the other yards This
story could not be verified or disproyed.
The men who were dismissed yesterday
were earning from $50 to g per day.
About twenty dismissals took place about
ten days ago from the forge shop and
smithy. These were also made because of
the absence Of work to be done.
1t is not thought that any discharges from
the yard are In immediate prospect
