Mr., Patrick Brennan, manager OF the
mill. on the situation at the works
what was done to-day" was asked
by the reporter.
"Tweuty out OF the sixty puddlers met
at the mill at three o'clock and held q
conference lasting until $50 o'clock In
the evening. A committee was then
appointed from among those present to
call on me at the office, which they did.
TEE committee reported that they were
unanimously In favor of not going TO
work, but standing for the 81 IS ton
rate for pudding. Our offer is 81 ton
to them, the same rate as is paid now In
Pittsourg, and IL stands TO reason that
we cannot afford to pay more"
"Why was the conference called when
you had made your ultimatum known
to them oeiore?"
THE meeting was called at the solic-
itation of those among the puddlers
who wanted 20 go TO work al the 81
rate, and at the rate refused by the ma
jority. Now that seems to end the
matter"
What do you think the outcome will
be?"
Nothing will be done till 1 report
the matter fully to President Hub
bard"
How many persons do you employ
at the pudding mill when it is in full
operation?"
There has been an error in the state
ments as to the number OF our en-
ployes. II has been said that we employ
TWO hundred and fifty persons, but the
fact is about four hundred persons are
given steady work, when the mill is on
! in full"

More Testimony for wide Tires.

A correspondent for the Breeders
Gazette gives his observation and expert
ence ia regard to wide tires as follows:
wish to give my observation and ex-
perience l have lot Of teams to look
after and we nave on the farm but two
narrow-tred wagons. In the spring
of 1891 when hauling manure, the wag-
on with three inch tires and the one
with one and one-half inch both went to
the field together, the loads being equal.
When in the field the broad-tired drove
in and unloaded; the narrow stuck.
Four horses were put to IL to get 1t to a
place to unload. The condition Of the
field was the same; broad tires on top
Of the ground, narrow tires in ground
about eight inches.
In addition to Winwood Farm, Mr..
Sunman also owns the largest ssw-mill
plant In Southeastern Indiana, and now
his foreman there uses wide tires on all
wagons, none being less than four and
one-half inches. The common dirt
roads clay have no stone on them In
this country, and roads that are used by
common farmers are cut to pieces-all
rut and mud-while the roads used by
the log wagons are solid and at to drive
over at all times.
In the spring Of 1892, we had a couple
OF mule teams to help piow wet piece
of ground. l was in the field when
they strucS 10; ths mules-which
weighed near to nine hundred and fifty
pounds each-mired to their knees and
were unhitched to get them out, Then
1 ordered one of our heavy draught
teams to try 10 plow where the mules
could not, and they completed the job
in a good manner. They weighed 1870
and !, $40 each. From my observation
and actual experience, having under
my charge more horses and wagons than
three or four farmers 10 this section Of
Indiana, am led 10 believe that the
wide tire Is the road-msker and the mar
row tire the rosder.breaker and horse
killer. Where | cannot go with wag-
with tires four and one-half inches wide
aud a team OF Clydes weighing from
I, 800 to 500 pounds each, no man with
narrow tires dare go with the same
load, no difference what his team may
be.
Give US wide tires and compel farm
ers TO use them and We will have better
roads than we ever have had and save
our horses also.-Erchdnge

The World editorial follows;

The strike of the Trenton pOtters sug-
gests the inquiry how far the country has
benefited BY the large protection granted
10 the p0tteries under the Mckinley law.
These potteries employ not quite 10000
men, women and boys, at an average wage
Of IS per week. They thus pay in wages
about 81 OOO, 900 a year. WeimpOrt pottery

the duty is IS. 4O4 9S5. The Trenton potteries
make $500, 900 worth, on which. if it were

collect the duty, pension all the potters az

THE DAY IN THE HOUSE.

Party Lines Drawn on the Free Wool
Clause = Dalzell Makes Accusations
Against johnson.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s.-At 1895 the
House went into committee OF the whole
to consider the Wilson bill The pend
ing question was Burrows motion of
yesterday to substitute for tho wool
clause OF the pending bill the same
clause from the Mckinley bill.
Almost the entire day was taken up
in discussion OF the question and
many interesting and amusing speeches
were made The proposition was de-
feated by vote OF II ayes to ISL nays.
The result was a foregone conclusion,
but contrary to the opinion of some it
was a strict party vot
Then Johnson, of Oh 10, who is a ste ell
raj manufacturer, introduced an
amendment putting steel rails on tho
free list. An interesting and acrimoni.
GUS discussion followed, in which Dali
zell, (Rep, Pa,) accused Johnson OF
making false statements in tho House
recently and of altering the congress-
lonal record. He devoted considerable
time to the question of Johnson's pay
ment of his employees in scrip. lie also
sent to the desk and had read some
newspaper articles accusing Johnson of
irregular proceedings in the issue and
redemption OF this scrip.
No action had been taken on the
