the WILSON BILL.
Il sml1ged from the Ordeal Of Amendment
Little Changed.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2e.-rhe Wilson tariff
bill emerged Saturday from the ordeal OF
amendments to which it has been sub
jected the last few weeks. The additional
days of debate this week will be given ex-
ciusively to the income tax.
The only copy in which all Of the
changes have been recorded is that in the
possession of the reading clerk of the
house. Mr.. Haughtaling, and Speaker
Crisp has directed that it be guarded with
much care. tt is remarkable patchwork
but Chairman Wilson and his associates
are congratulating themselves upon the
way they came out of the amendment or,
deal. The committee has sustained defeat
on two items, sugar and the date of in
augtlrating the free wool schedule All
the ether reverses are of comparatively
unimportant character.
On the other hand the committee has
won successive contests on iron ore. steel
rails, coal, tin plate, agricultural pro
ducts. cotton, salt, lumber and all other
great staples of coal, iron ore, etc, but
the movements have never commanded
enough votes to defeat Mr.. Wilson and
change his bill
OF the two material alterations-Sugar
and wool, that on sugar is of far-reaching
consequences The radical anti-suear Gle
ment succeeded in doing away with the
bounty at Il single stroke, and had refined
sugar as we'll as raw placed on the free
list.
The wool amendment changes the bill,
so that free raw wool and reduced duties
on manufactured woolens go into effect
rs soon as the tariff bill becomes a law in
stead of toward the end of the year.
Among the lesser amendments made
are those raising the duties OH diamonds
from 10 per cent under the bill to 30 pen
cent, and the specific repeal of the reci-
procity clause of the Mckinley act. The
first of these was contrary to the wishe.
of the committee. but the latter was q
committee amendment.

the morning and many additional decor
atoms were added to those OF Friday.
This was especially notable in regard to

city and feature of che display was the
great number of busts of the emperor
and of Prince Bismarck, which were dis
played, surrounded by laurel and palms,
inshop windows and private residences.

which hour the emperor received the con-
CALCULATIONS of his family. A little later
the officers of the headquarters staff and
the chiefs of his civil and military com
panies called at the palace to offer con-
CALCULATIONS. These visits were followed
by number of the distinguish ed people
and the whole court attended an impress
sive service in the Roy al church.
Immediately after this service the men,
bers of the imperial family and the repre-
sentatives of royal families who were pre-
sented proceeded to the white hall of the
castle, where grand reception of all the
nobilities of Berlin was held. The ladies
of the court wore long, trailing prone
made dresses and hats, and the men all
wore uniforms or court dresses.
Among those present were the Kings of
Saxony and Wurtemburg, the Grand
Dukes of Baden. Hesse, Tuscany, Alden
burg, and the Princes of Saxony, Sake
Weimer, Saxe-Meininger. Rauss, Wal
deck. Saxe-Aldenberg and Mecklenberg-
| Schwerin
| The giving out of the parole and the
countersign occurred soon after noon.
midst a scene of greatest military splen-
| dor The popular celebrates were cheered
as they arrived and departed. Later in
the day Prince Frederick Leopold pre-
sented Emperor William with falchion
on behalf of the Gardes du Corps.

sstional story comes from Candla viiaRs
to the effect that Mrs. George w. Hartford
Of that town is accused of terribly bea'icg
and abusiDg child named George Slrodi T.
Il n claimed that Mrs. Hartford on one
occasion found the Sr0dler bay, VINO vas

On one occasion, it is ALLEGED, that hav-
ing injured the anger of Mrs. Hartford,
she threatened to drown him in barrel OF

in her arm proceeded down stairs and lifted
the cover from barrel, at which juncture
other occupants Of the house interfered and
prevented the threat being carried into exc

cries were heard an eighth Of mile away.
The boy has been in feeble health since this
whipping, it is claimed, and Saturday morn

q most out-of- .he-way spot, some six miles
from Csndia village, ard the Journal re-
porter found on investigation that the peo-
pie Of the town were extremely unwilling
to be quoted With reference to the matter.
They had all heard the stories, of course,
but none Of them would vouch for their au-
thenticity. In fact. when pressed, most OF
them averred that they believed that the
rumors about the chiid's death being due to
cruelty were unfounded, and that the sto-
ries about the lads punishment were exag-
gerated.
There is a great deal Of talk about the
matter, and it may he that the selectmen
will order an investigation. They have moi
done so as yet. so far as could be learned
by the Journal man.
1t is claimed that Hon. T. E. Marvin OF

Called 10 smsoth 0ser css:oms Middle M
lsek after ksu Bonds.

WASHINGTON, Jan. eS.-T~o reason
ifnpelled S esetar, Carlisle to So to New
York last night. Oae was to sirsighten cut
the hitch between the collector Of custom
at New York and the importers, regardir
the acceptance of checks in payment OF
custom duties and the other to ascertain the
pros poets of bids for the new bond issue.
Under the old system in vogue in New
Yo.k, checks wers received by the collector
i, pYyment of custom dues. The court de-
els on, rec -ntiy rend red, msk sthe collector
responsible for all checks, whether the
banks cashsd them or not. This rtspoasi-
hi.ity, Collector Kibreth, after losicg sew
cral hundred dollars, declined to assume.
The importe.s, as matter of retail .tion,
ceased to nav customs dues in gold checks
and deposited therefor silver certificates.
Before tie order wss issued to refuse tie
checks the gold pay mens averaged for the
first 25 days 26 per cent, bat they ran down
the day the order was put irto eifect 10 less
than half of l per cent.
In few day . the loss Of gold II customs
receipts aggre gated more than 81, 900 ,O00.
Ia the pr. sent 6raia on gold for the ordi.
nary expenses of the Treasury, this state OF
affairs is serious. A new system OF trans.
fer order is suggested for the pay ment CT
customs dues and is thought to be sgree-
bile to importers, banks and treasury OFF,
cisls. Some importers still object.
The action Of the committee on jadicisry
in reporting the Bailey refo!u.ion favorably
to the House had the effect of lettering
any large bids 50 far for the new bends.
The action Of the knights of Labor in
seeking an irju elton against Secretary
Carlisle, to prevent him issuing bondf, had
disquieting effect.
Treasury officials have no doubt of the
power of the secretary to use the gold OBJ
sained for these bonds for any legitimate
government expense. Secretary Carlisle
xill, while in New York, assure all pro-
-pective bidders that they need have no
fears on any score about bidding for the
bonds and that they will be amply pIo-
tected.
Secretary Carlisle made public tonight a
statement explaining the report of the COM
mitteee on judiei,ry and den, ing that it
has any eff ct on the bold j sue.

~ Facauries VIII Be Runnisg Today -sslh
sttss eiaIa 10 Be Ahead

DAxBURYysCt., Jan. 28.-All the Is ha!
| factories involved in labor difficulties fol
the past nine weeks will be running ,mor-
row. Twelve opened Thursday Us inse.
pendent chops and the othsr SIX II start
up some time tomoIrOw as union shops.
The latter have been delaying the opening,
waiting for girls Of The Trinmers
Union to take action, granting them certain
concessions which the other three unions
had already made. The concessions were
granted Friday night after four mee:i Igs
were hell. The six manufacturers had TO
secure the consent of their association,
after obtai.ing concessions from the unions.
and at meeting Of the Manufacturers
Association, last night, they were released
from their bonds of $1,000 AMI given per-
mission to open the il shops to the unions.
The certain conditions under which the
manufacturers were released are not known,
but enough is learned to make it certain
that the move is only temporary, and they
may discharge their help inside of month.
The hatters have not returned to work in the
shops that opened independently as speedily
as was exp .cted, and it i. asserted that none
of these six shops VIII be opened to the
unions, to give empl ,yment to portion of
the lOckedout people, who are ready to get
to work in the union chops. go that those
who will stay out will get uneasy, seeing a
part their number working, and return
,hemse Ives to the Independent. shops. These
six manufa cturers are still members of the
Manufacturer Association and their in
terests are all the same.
The hatters loo k upon the opening of the
six factories to he unions as an entering
wedge and say that they are confident t,at
the others will follow the example, and that
in short Tina all the factories with the
exception of possibly two, C. II. Merritt Sons
and Meeker Bros, will open as union shops.
The concessions the uuions made grant
the manufacturers so many privileges, the
six shops that will reopen tomorrow, unds I
them will have almost as many liberties as
the independent shops will require.
1t i, reported that the Hatters' UGion in
Norwalk and other places have Eo:i-
fed the local union that cards
held by the Danbury Union matters
are not to be accepted in those places,
as they have conceded all their rights and
should not be recognized as union hatters.
The hatters claim that less than 100 of the
1000 locked cut people have returned to
work in the independent shops, and proba-
bly, the number gone back will not exceed
200, Tne manufacturers are very reti-
cent.
