These heavy reductions upon WOODEN
goods, OF which the above items are
merely specimens. result from putting
wool upon the free list. it will be
noticed that the reductions are greatest
upon common goods and less upon the
inner and more expensive goods. This
Is the reverse of the Mckinley method,
where the heaviest taxes were put upon
the goods used by the common people
and the lightest upon those used by the
wealthlest classes.
In 1893 we imported wooden goods to
the value of $36, 9l3.737, upon which we
collected tax Of SO per cent, amount
ing to .797. The tax paid was
nearly equal to the value of the goods
purchased. Under this new law the
tariff has been reduced more than one
half. The S36,000.000 goods which cost
us $4,000, 900 in 1898 would cost us $751;
100000 less under the new law.
This is what the Fifty-third congress
has done. But this reduction in fact
will also apply to the WOODEN goods
which are manufactured in this country
as we'll as TO those imported. Good
WOOL clothing, etc.-nOt Sh0ddy will
hereafter be much cheaper to the Amer
lean consumer.
If the FIfty-third congress had done
nothing else than to thus remodel the
wool and woalen schedule, 1t would
have done better work for the people
than has be3n done by any congress
since the war.
The Mckinley prophets have predict
ed the utter destruction of our sheep
Industry and of our WOODEN industries
as the result of this law Remember
the prophecy and wait for its fulfill
ment.

 Washington, D. C., Nov. 23.-Commis- sioner Carroll D. Wright, Of the census and labor bureaus, whose report on the recent railroad strike was distributed in advance so indiscrimlnately that 1t obtained publication several days prior to Its date. has given out to-day letter in reply to some of the criticisms called out by that report. He says:
 ''The testimony taken by the commits sion will be printed by order of con- gress, and then everyone can satisfy himself as to the truth of the position taken by the commission. I believe the report of the commission to be thorough ly fmpregnable as to every material statement of fact. Whatever specific answer the commission may make to the charges of the Railway Age and of other papers, I presume the commits sion will prefer to make officially, and not to any individual publication. Such an answer I have no right now to make, but I have not consulted the members of the commission. write this letter on my own responsibility. Whoever calls on me for the purpose of examining the testimony will be &C., corded every privilege"
 MT. Wright states on his own respon- sibility that every point made by the Railway Age 'is false"

Only an Unoficial List of Its Members Pro.
 pared.
 Washington, Nov. 28.-An erroneous impression has gone out that the clerk of the house of representa- tdves has pre- pared an official list of members of the Fifty-fourth congress. This he has not done, and would not be able to do, if so disposed, for the reason that offl- cial returns have thus far been received from only two districts of the s56, those two being the two Oregon districts. An employe in the clerks office to-day expressed the opinion that the comple- tion of the list would be delayed until after March 4, to avoid the possibility of error or of complications similar to those presented in the pending contest of Belknap vs. Richardson for the seat from the Fifth Michigan district.
 The list which has now been prepared is entirely unofficial, the names being gathered from all available authentic sources, and is only for the convenience of members.

Ell. UT Mills Closed Down.

St. Louis, Nov. 23.-Every flour mill in this city has closed down for an in- definite period, The reason given by the millers is that the market is glutted with flour and suffering from over production. ;, Local dealers, however, point to the fact that the mills are sud- denly closed at a time when the ques- tion of cheap bread is being vigorously agitated by the newspapers. So much fraud in the sale of bread has been dis covered that the city council is consid- ering a measure to compel dealers to sell bread by weight.

Three Hundred Mill Hands Arc Thrown
 Out of Employment.
 Boston, Nov. 23-The Peason Cordage company has issued circular to its en- ployes announcing that on December about one-half of the mill will be closed down. This will deprive more than 300 hands of employment. The companys works are in Roxbury. The circular says:
 "We have to do this because trade is so dull, there is such large quantity of rope and twine on hand, and the de- mand for them is so poor that it Is im- possible to sell the product of the mill. We hope the stoppage of part of the mill will be only temporary. We shall, as we have always done, keep just as much of the mill running as we can."

 LIVELY TIMES IN THE NINTH.
 The causus in the Ninth last even- ing was a "corker." Four hundred and nine votes were cast in the contest for the aldermanic nomination and Joseph Kelly received 24s of these. Joseph P. Peaker received 163 votes.
 The caucus was called to order at 8 o'clock, but 1t was after when the result was announced. The nomina- ton for first councilman was the oc- casion for q contest between factions. Robert Bonner. young colored man. nominated Edward Beulah. Captain Wilkins nominated Warren H. Bristol. A vote here showed MT. Beulah with 134 votes and Mir. Bristol 79
 Charles E. Unger was unanimously chosen as nominee for second coun- cilman.
 The third nominee was Thomas Bailey.
 Mir. Henry E. Marsh next took the floor and made the following motion. which was seconded and passed Voted, That H. E. Marsh be allowed to name committee of five to prepare the town and city delegation. which would be instructed to vote for him for assessor"
 MT. Frank Loveland amended, mak- ing the vote that the delegation be also instructed to vote for R. H. Brown for selectman.
 Everything went well and the com mittee was appointed. The committee recommended twelve names for the town convention. The names were all accepted until the eighth name was brought up. It was that of Joseph c. Kelly, and Jacob Hodge objected. He thought Kelly had enough and then began kick. Up to that time unani- mity had prevailed. R. H. Brown, Sol. Riggs, Joseph Brodske, H. B. Marsh, Andrew Parker, Frank E. Len nox, David Henderson were chosen. After much discussion Kelly was elected to next place. Balloting was then had. Henry Kane was the only nominee for ninth place, but he only got 49 out of the 79 votes, as MT. J. E. Fairchild and MT. Montgomery receiv- ed the rest. Willis M. Bonner, David Ferris and Fred Coates were elected.
 For city delegation the following names had been presented:
 w. H. Bouton, R. H. Brodski, James Dunlap, Joseph Kegelmeyer, John Whitney, George Stevenson, Henry hatcher, F. J. Margetson, R. H. Bon- ner, Charles Shewbrooke, George T. Burke and George F. Booth.
 The above is the slate for the dele gation. At midnight they had not been voted upon. It Is safe, however, to say that they were elected. NO PRIMARY IN ELEVENTH. :.
 The republicans of the Eleventh ward attempted to hold their caucus last evening in the unoccupied house at S4 Pierpont street, but as it could not accommodate the 200 or more voters who assembled, an attempt was made to secure Central hall, but in that the committee met with no better success. Alderman W. B. Morgan called the meeting to order and after some dis cussion 1t was decided to postpone the caucus to this evening at s o'clock. It is expected the meeting will be held in Central hall.
