The Senate's Only vindication.
N. Y. Press.


The duplicity of Mr.. Cleveland has made
any compromise between himself and the
Senate impossible. Mr.. Cleveland has shown
himself equally incapable of appreciating
honorable confidence or exhibiting genuine
courage. 1t Ia stated that he even begged
Senator German to abstain from using his
(Mr. Cleveland's) own handwriting to convict
him OF duplicity. On the ground that the
writing in question had come into Mr.. Cor
mans possession in a confidential manner.
I b President, who had not scrupled to abuse
the confidence Of Senators. appealed to the
obligations OF confidence to cover his own
conduct; and IL 10 to the credit Of Senator
German hat the appeal was not In vain.
With the President se~lf-oonvicted OF deceit
and calumny, compromise or compact would
mean humiliation revolving to every honor.
able man. To accept Mr.. Cleveland's dicta-
tion would be to accept as true the odious
charges which he has made against the in
tegrity and fidelity of the Senate. 1t would
be to accept as deserved the stigma which the
President has sought to afix to the senate.
1t would be o plea of guilty to the indictment
which he framed against the highest legisla-
tive body of the nation. Protest alone will not
vindicate The senate. It Is not enough TO prove
that Mr.. Cleveland has played q despicable
part. The only fitting rebuke for the PresI-
dent who proposed to master the Senate by
insult and MISREPRESENTATION is the utter re-
lection of the Cleveland proposals. II that
means the defeat and rejection of the Bour.
bon bill. so much the better for the Senate q
well as the American people, by whom such a
result would be hailed with delight from the
workshops of New York to the VINEYARDS NJ
Los Angeles.

COMPROMISE NEAR AT HAND.

while the Senate bill viii be sent back

recommendation, yet q compromise has
virtually been agreed upon by the Demo
cratic leaders, and already dates have
again been set when the bill will 20 to
the President for his signature. But
the Democrats are given to counting
their chickens prematurely, and it is
by no means certain that even
IL compromise is reached
that the bill will pass. The Washing.
ton correspondence the Boston Journal,
who is n of the best posted men in
Congressional work, says that the con-
ference committee will strike out the
differential of 4 of a cent a pound on
sugar, and report back the bill with a
rate OF As per cent. al vaIorem
instead Of 40 per cent. as il
now stands on all sugar. This change
meets with the approval Of the Louisi.
ana men, while it will be opposed by
the Sugar Trusts employees in the Sem
ate, although their opposition will be
merely formal, as the increase in ad
valorem rates virtually offsets the abol-
ishment of the differential rate.
But when it comes to the other conces-
sions the real trouble of the Democracy
is TO begin. II Is claimed that these other
concessions are to be against Northern
interests, and that the cotton, wooden
and iron schedules are TO be sacrificed
and ~repudiated.
As Webb intimates i'm his letter TO the
Boston Journal, the Republicans in the
Senate will not sit tsmely by and allow
these schedules to be sacrificed.

THE FIGHT WITH DEBS.

The Brotherhood of Railway Train
men proposes to discipline those OF its
members who participated in the re-
cent pebs strike by expulsion. This
strengthens the belief that Debs' order
was created mainly TO kill the other
existing organizations. aud that the
strike was a part of Debs' scheme
to carry out his plan. 1t is
certain that the older rail-
way organizations denounced the
strike and refused absolutely to allow
their men to 60 out. Grand Master
Wilkinson of tho Brotherhood of Rail-
way Irainmcn has issued his instruc-
lions to the officers and members of
subordinate lodges, in which he says:
am In receipt of communications
asking for instructions as to what course
shall be pursued in relation to members
or our brotherhood who have taken part
in the late strike. Our members are
hereby notified that general rule No. 10
of the Brotherhood Of Railway Train
men must be enforced.
Members who have taken part In the
late strike should have charges preferred
against them for violation of obligation,
and the laws Of the Brotherhood, by
participating in the strike, and if such
charges are sustained they must be ex-
PEELED from membership in the organ
ization. Any lodge failing or refusing
to comply with the constitution, and
especially general rule 10. in this case
lays itself liable to have its charter re-
voked. Prompt attention is requested"
General rule No. 10 absolutely pro-
hibits going out on sympathetic strikes,
In this quarrel between labor organiza-
tions, the sympathies of the public are
with the older and more conservative
orders which Debs tried to destroy.
Such a rule is absolutely essential to
the longevity of any such organization
for no labor disturbance can equal in
f~oolishness a ~so-called sympathetic
strike.

visit Gray Gables, and that the work Of
the Senate has only just begun. The
Republican Senators say that they will
not DO buncoed, and that they are not to
be played with by a party which has
only a technical majority Of one vote"
Yesterday when it was whispered
about the Senate Chamber that the
Democratic leaders were about to sacri-
flee their schedules, Senator Aldrich
went at once to Mr.. German and
gave him some very plain talk,
the tenor of which was that
the Republican interest. concessions and
rights in the Senate bill cannot DO disre-
garded, as it was reported was likely to
be the case, and that IL the Democrats
proposed to pass q tariff bill and ignore
all the amendments which have been
made with the Republicans rs to the
different schedules, the Democrats, when
they report their bill back to the con-
ference. will be required to do this by
their W votes the best way they can.
That SO shabby a trick would be at
tempted if there was any hope Of carry
ing the bill through there is not the
slightest shadow of a doubt. The Demo-
cracy is anxious to do all the injury it
can to Northern industries, and but for
the fact that the Democrats have only a
theoretical majority of one to pass any
tariff bill this Infamous blow at North
ern industries would unquestionably be
given.
AS 1t is, The NEWS questions very
much whether it will be attempted, and
it believes that about the only conces-
sion that will be made will be on the
sugar differential.
The House is weakening, and yester-
day Speaker Crisp was found to be con-
sulting with the members who desired
to give in to the Senate.
That a desperate effort will be made
to bring about q compromise is unques-
tionably true, and hat both sides to the
present controversy will yield a trifle so
as to arrive at an agreement is also true,
but that any radical change is really ex-
pected THE NEWS does not believe.
Under the Senate rules it is possible
the Republicans to keep Congress in
session until it expires by limitation
without allowing a vote to be taken and
thus force the Democracy to go before
the people at the coming elections
without any tariff bill whatever, in
addition to keeping the members in
Washington at the time when their
fences stand badly in need Of re-
This is the principal reason
why The NEWS believes that the Demo-
cratic Senators will not dare to NEEDLE
with the cotton and wooden
schedules, and it is a position that is
borne out by the logic of the situation.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING.

Bostop Journal.

II was an unfortunate day for President
Cleveland when he selected Clifton r. Brock
inridge for the important post of Minister 70
Russia. 1t Is not merely that Breckinridgs
possesses only the qualifications Of the ordi-
nary Arkansas Bourbon politicjan-which
means Of course that he is totally uunttsd for
apiacs of suoh large responsibilities. This in
dividual whom Mr.. Cleveland has honored BY
one OF the best appointments In our diplo-
matte service IL chiefly conspicuous from the
TACT that he once owed his seat In Congress TO

lican opponent.

but II has not been forgotten. John NJ. Clay
ton ana Z. r.. Breckinridge were respectively

In the Third Arkansas Congressional District

apparent majority. but Colonel Clayton con-
tested his seat on the ground of fraud, and
early In January. 1889. began gathering testi-
mony 10 sustain his case before the House of
Representatives. Within three weeks he had
secured sufficient evidences of fraud to wipe
away Breckinridge's lead, and to give him
SELF u plurality OF ut least 80. On Jan. 20.
Colonel Clayton was engaged in Investigating
the frauds In Plummerville. Howard town.
ship, Conway County. Ii was here that on
the day OF the election, Judge Benjamin, a
Republican and q prominent citizen OF
Little Rock. had been murdered by a Demo-
cratic mob while watching the balloting. 1t
was here, too, that ballot boxes supposed to
contain q large Republican vote had been
burned, and an election inspector, who was
held as a witness of the outrage, assassinated.
In the evening Of January 20, Colonel Clayton.
having completed his work. was sitting In his
room at the village hotel writing . letter to
his motherless children. when unknown
rufians fired . vollsy through the window
and killed him instantly.
The murderers were never discovered. Con-
gress appointed q special committee of In

Another Senator was yesterday driven 10
"divulge the secrets of the past' I'm self
defence. This time IL was Senator Cafsry
of Louisiana. who made some significant reve.
lations touching tho formation of the sugar
schedule.
He went on to tell that he had been NJ "a
little conference" where Senators German
and Brice we're the ruling spirits. IL was
there decided to levy n tax of 40 per cent. on
raw and 50 per cent. on refned sugar.
Mr.. Gallery took this schedule to Senator
Jones Of the finance COMMITTEES, who
pointed out that "in the difYerential allo wed
the refiners chat Is. the Sugar Trusu was
concealed a diferential greater than in the
Mckinley law" On this startling revelation
Senator Gallery withdrew the schedule and
subsequently, presented another. but was '.ad-
monished by Mr.. German and Mr.. Brice that
his second schedule meant free sugar." which
Of course, was not what the Louisiana sena-
tors wanted.
Mr.. Caffery was then induced TO accent the
schedule, levying 40 per cent. duty on raw
and refined sugar and one-eighth d~ifferential
on refined. He says that IL was dictated by
the Trust and was not satisfactory to the
Louisiana growers but that he accepted a
with the assurance that the bounty for this
year should stand. In this he was deceived.
as the bounty was subsequently cut of. Mr..
Cafrrey called upon Senators Jones and Vest
to say whether his statements were not cor.
rect, but neither accepted the challenge.
This Is the strongest and most direct owl
dence yet made public that tho sugar sched-
ule of the German compromise bill was got up
for the special benefit of the Sugar Trust and
that an attempt was made TO secure even
greater protection than IL given by the Nc.
Kinley bill, under which Mr. Hsven,cyerhi him.
self frankly confessed that the Trust had
reaped thirty millions profit In three years.
