WANTS FREE RAILS.
MOnOpOlist Tom JOhnsOn's Philan-
thrOpy Ventilated by DaIzeII.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1G.-Almost the en-
tire day IN the House was spent in the con-
tinuation of the debate on Mr.. Burrows's
amendment to restore the existing duties on
wool. with the result of its defeat by a
strict party vote About an hour before the
recess Mr.. Johnson, the Ohio free-trader
and single taxer, offered his amendment to
place rails on the free list. This led to
what will probably prove TO be one of the
most interesting discussions of the present
tariff debate.
When Mr.. Johnson. was recognized to Of
fer his amendment placing on the free list
railway bars. made in part of steel, rails
and girders, street rails and punched iron
or steel rails which. in the bill are dutiable
at % per cent. he explained that his amend
ment. included in paragraph 115, girder
street rails specifically SO that there could
be no misunderstanding about that class
or rails. That steel rail pool existed which
paid steel rail mills to close their works
ana give them a monopoly OF TINS produc-
ton. he said. was generally admitted. No
revenue could be produced from putting u
duty of % per cent. on them. The ways
and means committee did not claim that IL
would produce revenue and ne asked the
House either 10 put steel rails on the free
list or show a good reason for not doing So
Mr.. Springer asked Mr.. Johnson. who is
himself steel-rail producer, whether plac-
ing rails on the free list would drive rail
manufacturers out or the business, TO which
the latter replied that 1t would not. Its
only affect would be TO reduce the profits
OF the mill owners.
That's what you're here for, suppose"
interposed Mr. Boutelle, sarcastically, Ito
reduce your protitS?
Il am not here voting money into the
pockets OF my stockholders replied Mr..
Johnson, emphaticaly, amid applause.
"Your patriotism has an element of i'm
probability about it," retorted Mr.. Boutelle.
In further reply TO Mr.. Springer, Mr..
johnson stated that his mill not more
favorably situated than others; that il was
in about the center of steel rail produc-
ton.
Mr.. Dalzell the Republican representa-
tive from the Pittsburg district, then pro-
ceeded to ati;Ick Mr.. Johnson. Steel rail
production, h said, was an important in
dustry in eleven States. This proposition
was 10 place steel rails on the free list and
leave billets and blooms, out Of which they
were manufactured, dutiable at p per cent.
Was that Just? The steel rail industry was
the most splendid monument of protection.
Under its beneficient operation the price OF
rails had gone down from 800 To s25.
IF the price went down here, what brought
it down abrOad?' asked Mr.. Johnson.

establishment Of the industry here" replied

EDITOR CHILDS ILL
Philadelphia's Philanthropist Said
to Be jim a Serious Condition.
He was Seized with Vertigo Yesterday
While Leaving His Office and Was I'm
conscious for More Than an Hour.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 1S.-George w.
Childs, the philanthropist, and the editor
and proprietor of the Public Ledger, is said
to be seriously i'll, and grave fears are en-
tanned regarding his condition. All that can
be positively learned concerning his illness
is contained in the following statement,
which was issued from the Office of the
Ledger at midnight:
LAS Mr.. George w. Childs was prepar-
ing to leave the Ledger office for his home
about O'Clock this afternoon. he was seized
with a. sudden attack Of vertigo which for
time alarmed those present. Medical aid
was promptly summoned, a carriage was
called, and, in company with his physician,
Prof: j. Nj. Dacosta, Mr.. ChlldS was short
ly afterwards taken to his residence, where
tonight he was resting easily"
At Mr.. Chillss home it was said that
there was nothing to be added to the above
statement, and DIR. DacosIa positively de-
clined to be interviewed on he subject.
Persons who profess TO be correctly in
formed say that Mr.. Childs was upcon scious
for more than an hour after the ATTACK, and
they intimate that it is apople ctic IN i;s na-
ture. 1t is known that he has had at least
two attacks of n similar nature within the
past year, and the evident desire upon the
part Of those surrounding him 10 preserve
secrecy has excited the gravest apprehen-
sions regarding the exact nature Of the
trouble
Among a number Of friends OF Mr.. Childs
who called tonight was Col Edward Nor
rell, who, as he was leaving, said to a
reporter: "Mr. Childs is sleeping, but is
somewhat restless. The physicians say
that he had an attack of vertigo. II is O.
serious thing for a man of Mr.. Childs's age
but the physicians hops it viii not fore
shadow anything alarming. A physician
will spend the night with him."
Col. A. b. Drexel drove up about mid
night and stayed a few minutes. 'Mr.
Childs is much better" he said, as he left.

for sharp criticism for his speech of last
October before the Worlrs Congress of Ag-
riculture. The following resolution was
passed concerning him AMI his speech:
Resolved, That the insinuation that
membership in the alliance implies a
ant leaders and vicious demagogues' is
as untrue as it is insulting and would
scarcely be eXcuSaDle IN the midst of an
exciting partisan campaign. 1t is wholly
unworthy of the great aSsemblage before
which it was made and the high office of
him who made it.
Resolved, That whatever Mr.. Morton
may represent he does not represent the
agricultural interests of the United states.
and that, irrespective Of party, we urgent
ly request his resignation from his pres
ent position
