IRON ORE PRODUCTION REDUCED.

Reports received at the geological sur
gey from twenty three states and two
territories give total production of H.
7,G07 long tons Of iron ore in 1893. This
amount is smaller than that recorded for
any year since lsS7. and is decrease of
almost % per cent over 1892. No increase
IS evident in any Of the states producing
over 100000 tons of iron ore, except in
Minnesota, where owing TO the develop
ment of the Mesaba range and the COM
pletion of transportation facilities. the
output increased about 100000 tons, and
IN Colorado, wnere, owing To the produc-
ton of larger amounts Of pig iron locally,
about 10000 tons more iron ore were re-
qnred than were consumed in 1892. The
proportionate decline Of iron ore produc-
ton during the year was greatest in
Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and
New York

PROSPECTS OF THE TARIFF BILL.

The course which the tariff debate may
take in the senate this week will depend
entirely upon developments from day to
day. The agreement for the limitation
of debate on the tariff TO certain hours
each day has expired, and the republic
ans have shown no disposition to renew
1t. The democrats have not yet decided
whether they will attempt to extend the
debate until later hour each day than
has vet been observed. Their programme
in this respect will depend upon the prog
ress that may be made with the COM pro-
mise now in hand The feeling is gem
eral on the democratic side that IL they
get bill which commands the support
of the entire democratic side Of the cham
Der the republican antagonism will
weaken, that the opposition will be con-
tent TO make earnest protest. but without
any effort to prolong the final vote be-
yond the time necessary 10 discuss the
various schedules in business-like man
ner, and that night sessions may not be
resorted TO.

SLOW WORK on Appropriations.

But two months remain before the new
fiscal year begins, yet not one OF the
fourteen annual appropriations has
passed both houses of congress. Chair
man Sayers Of the house committee on
appropriations says the work on the APP
preparation bills is further advanced this
year than IL was at the same time two
years ago. when not single one Of the
fourteen bills had become law at the
beginning of the fiscal year for which
they made appropriations, and a joint
resolution had TO be passed extending
the provisions OF existing laws for a pc
riod up to which the new appropriations
were available. With the prospects of a
long tariff debate in the senate the OK
pectat ton is that similar action will have
TO be taken at least with respect TO some
of the appropriations during the present
session. No less than four urgent def
cheney bills have been passed during the
present session Of congress and received
the executive sanction.

NIAGARA POWER.

The Constitutional Convention Is TO consider
this week special order relating to the diver
sion Of the waters Of the Niagara River. A
subcommittee Of the Committee on Legislative
Powers has presented Il lucid and compre-
hensve report rehear;ing the rights acquired
by various corporations for the employment OF
water power and the development Of electric
power. and recommending safeguards by which
the State Reservation may be protected In
future The subject Is one OF great Importance.
and II Is fortunate that the Convention can have
the benefit OF so full and careful II report be-
fore setting upon the amendment, which has
been made a special order
Thereeare two distinct interests which are to
be KEEP, steadily in view. One is the preserva-
ton Of The cataract, which Is one " the chief
marvels Of natural scenery Oh the planet and
the Other Is the development under adequate
safeguards and regulations Of cheap electric
power as one Of the great industrial resources
of the Empire State. The subcommittee ap-
parently ;pprehends that one interest may be
sacrificed . the other II the Legislature be al
lowed to make further grants TO corporations,
as II has been doing within the last eight years.
or II the concessions already sanctioned are car
rcd out uinerruptelly and without super
| vision. Accordingly it recommends amend
mcnt 10 prevent further grants, and to place the
companies already Incorporated under the con-
troll Of the Commissioners OF the State Reserva-
ton charged with the duty Of protecting the
| cataract.
While the commissioners are logically the
proper authorizes for supervising the develop
| ment Of electro power for the benefit OF the
western COUNTIES, and possibly OF large section
Of the interior Of the State the discretionary
powers with which they are TO be armed are
too large to be lastily and without due delbera.

THE EFEECTS.

What Is coming! The business world Is
anxious for all the light 1t can get regarding
the probable effect Of the new tariff. While
conflicting predictions can no longer be supposed
to serve any useful political purpose. they
still made with passionate earnestncss by those
who desire TO Justify their past action. When
the Senate bill WAS first passed few felt con
6dcnt that II would become law without cs-
sential changes. But II WAS clearly less injuri-
Gus to most industries than any which The
House had favored. that the action Of the
Senate brought some sense Of hclpfulncss or re-
lief The volume Of transactions, which had
ranged between y and 70 per cent Of the nor
NAL for each month since February taking 1892
per cent. aud with the prospect Of the bills fail
ure in the second week Of August slightly above
II per cent Then came the sudden acceptance
OF the Senate bill by the House, relief that moth
ing worse could any longer be feared, the
pressure Of deferred business and the improve
ment which definite basis Of any kind might
be expected to produce. For the last two weeks
trade has averaged just 20 per cent OF the nor
NAL for the season.
The best judgment which men were able to
form. be 1t right wrong has been reflected
long postponed demands has lifted business
about tenth since the Senate passed Its bill.
The distribution Of the recovery, so to speak. Is
natural; in the great industries which are likely
10 be most affected by the new tariff the pro-
portion Of working force employed, or Of fun
business done. II much less than four.hfths.
