A GOOD ENGLISH BILL.

There can be no doubt whatever that
owing to the relief that has been given in
the reduction or the total abolition of i'm
port duties will be OF great advantage to
many English manufacturers, and as a
consequence to those whom they employ.
OF course the advantage to England from
the new tariff will be felt principally in
the manufacturing centers. such as Brad
ford, Huddersfield and the neiGh borhood,
where the Mckinley tariff wrought so
much harm. We may expect in Hull to
gain something from increased siIi pment
of goods, and SO far as we can judge we
shall not have long to wait. Among the
free goods we find certain kinds of iron
and steel, mineral waters, agricultural
implements and machinery of various
kinds, including threshing machines.
This is good for England, because provis-
ion is made that there shall be duty of
30 per cent. on the Sc things if they are i'm
ported from countries that impose 4 duty
on like articles from the United States.
There ought under this clause to be at
once an impetus in the manufacture of
agricultural implements. Salt and tai
low are also to be imported free. Woods
of vario us kinds are to be imported with
out charge. and while some woods are ex-
empted from duty. there are other kinds
on which there is great reduction, SO
that English manufacturers will be able
to compete, rs they did before the passage
of the Mckinley tariff, with their COM
petitors in Amerca.-Hull Daily News,
Aug. Il. 1894.

TnE Loss % FREE wO5i.

Before the Inauguration Of Grover Cieve-
lard in 1898 Ohio Xxx wool sold for so,
cents pound. The same grade now sells
for IS cents. The lower grades have de
clined more in proportion. The wool clip
for 1898 was a29. 9.4iO. 542 pounds. and ex.
cepting for Democratic success would
have been much larger this year. Theda
cline in wool represents an annual less TO
the wool growers of al, l,116.316, taking
only the standard grade as the basis of
estimate. But including the others the
loss reaches over $45. 900, COD. The decline
in the price of sheep represents a loss Of
f15,OOO,OCO. The loss on ranch property
and on the rough and poorer portions of
the 7OO.C0o farms now used for grazing
sheep has been estimated by Senator
Dolph at $3.50. 100000. But leaving that
out, and including tine depreciation in the
value Of labor, and about si35 600, GOO rep
resent the loss this year to the wool grow
ers as the result of the Democratic free
wool crusade.
Can any living man point to any gain?
The one branch of the wooden industry
that was said to suffer most because of the
duty on wool was the production of car
pets. But We find in The Wool and Cot
ton Reporter and other trade journals of
recent date the statement that 1.-The
mills are now running at about one
half capacity on small orders" That
is the way free wool helps the carpet
industry. although the tariff on the man
ufacturei goods will not be reduced under
the new law until next year. The big
wo olen mills at Centcrville, n. j., have
closed because they cannot now pay pro-
lection wages. even with free wool.
There has been gain. however, to Can
adams and other foreigners. The Wool
turers have shown little disposition to buy
domestic stock, as they expect to get for
eign wool much lower The same journal
reports that Interest on the part of the
buyers has been mainly in foreign wools,"
and that in Boston ''rhe sales of Austria
liam wool have surpassed any previous
record" Why? Because foreigners un-
derseil the American wool growers even
at present low prices.
That trade newspaper also reports that
some of our large Philadelphia wool
houses have sent their buyers into Canada
recently, and there has been some large
blocks of wool taken up and conservative
estimates are made that 900, 600 pounds
of Canadian wool have come to Philadel-
phia within the past two weeks" 1t ap-
pears therefore that the Australians and
Canadians are receiving some benefit from
the free wool tariff. But there is nothing
except wailing and gnashing of teeth in
the United States. A few foreign wool
houses may increase their commissions,
but that is all the gain so far visible here
to compare with 4 direct yearly loss of
s135, 100000 and an indirect loss that
makes up another large sum.

A SMALL DIFFERENCE.
Speaking of the new tariff bill in fur
ther detail, Mr.. Wymau said, in conclu-
sion: Take. for example, goods that un-
der the Mckinley law cost 81 per yard
abroad. 1t costs the importer 10 per cent.
for his expenses in freight, insurance,
etc. to place the goods in his house ON this
side. On the top of this there is an ad
valorem duty of IS per cent, say, under
the Mckinley law. The goods, there
fore. cost the importer $l.45 per yard
Now comes the Wilson bill and lowers the
duty to 25 per cent The importer still
has to pay 81 abroad for his goods, and
the cost of the freight. insurance. etc, is
the same as before. Therefore the goods,
under the Wilson bill, costs the importer
&l.35, which is a saving of ten cents on
$1.45. or only about per cent.
1.-THE error which the average stump
speakers makes, consciously or lncon-
sciously, in his argument is that when
the Wilson bill lowers the duty from 35
per cent. to p per cent. there is saving
to the consumer of 10 per cent
But have shown cOnclusively, be-
lieve, that the actual saving is only per
cent; and, furthermore, experience has
shown that a small amount, if any, of the
savings is for the consumer-it is the rich
importer who reaps the benefit"
