SENATOR CHANDLER says 18th

SENATOR CHANDLER says THAT
twenty-five of the forty-hve men who
framed and passed the tariff bill fought
in the Confederate Army, and that tha'
measure was passed to cripple Northern
Industries as an act of revenge toward
the people of that section for prevent
ing the disruption ofthe Union" AS the
most earnest supporters of the bill re-
ferred to are from the North, and as
most of those who opposed it are from
the South, the groundlessness Of MIR.
Chambers assertion is paten'; but, IN
order to make it more so, it is only
necessary to say that while that bill
removes the bounty on sugar, q South
ern product, it imposes a protective
duty on the product of Northern sugar
r~efners. and that while it makes raw
wool, another Southern product, free
it protects the Northern manufactures
of that wool with q duty Of fifty per
cent. But that Mr.. Chandler long since
ceased to regard facts as bases for his
statements was proved in 1876, when
he sent his famous telegram to Dir
HAYES, the day after the presiden tia
election "You have.1S5 votes, and are

Mysterious Shooting.

Boston, Sept. 21.-At about 11:9O
o'clock last night the body ola respec-
table looking woman was found lying in
the street at Ashmont. Her head lay in a
pool of blood, and a crimson stream
was flowing from a builetwound in her
left temple. She was taken to the city
hospital and this morning recovered
sufficiently to tell the attendants that
her name was Eleanore Whitfield, and
that she had been shot by o man named
James Paul, without the slightest prov
o%cation. At eight o'clock this morning
Miss Whitfield was slowly sinking, and
it is feared she may die before the po-
lice have had an opportunity to bring
her alleged assailant before her for
Identification. Paul was slightly &C
quainted with the Whitfield woman
and last night called her into his shop.
There, it is alleged, Paul attempted to
assault Miss Whitfield. The latter re-
sisted fercely and Paul shot the unfor-
tunate woman in the head. He then
made his escape, while his victim man

ceiye all the Establishments Of the Pres
