trlfugal SO degrees 81 at 3.
The revised tariff bin was submit
ted to the Senate on the 10th inst.
The most important change is In the
sugar schedule, the change being
made by which an additional duty OF
cent per pound is given on all sugars
above 9s degrees by the polariscope
test, or which are above No. is,
Dutch standard, in color.
The text of the sugar schedule as
now agreed upon is as follows: "All
sugars, tank bottoms, syrups of cane
Juice or beet juice ,melada, concentrated
melada, concrete and concentrated
molasses, testing by polariscope not
above SO degrees, shall pay duty of
/ cent per pound, and to every addi-
tional degree or fraction OF degree
above SO and not above 9) degrees,
shown by the polariscope test, shall
pay .01 of a cent per pound additional,
and above 80 and not above 98 de-
grees, for every additional degree or
fraction of degree shown by the
polariscope test, shall pay duty OF
.O2 of cent per pound additional,
and upon all sugars testing above SO
degrees by the polariscope test. or
above No. IS by Dutch standard in
color, there shall be levied and col
lected duty of of cent per pound
i'm addition to the duty imposed upon
sugars testing above 9S degrees. Mo-
Iasses testing not above So degrees by
polariscope shall pay duty of cents
per gallon; molasses testing above 56
degrees shall pay duty OF 4 cents per
gallon"
tt is understood the bill will be
amended SO as to make a positive de-
claration for the abrogation of the
reciprocity treaties made under the
| Mckinley Act. This is to satisfy the
| fears of the sugar men, though the
committee is satisfied the bill as 1t
| stands would do so.
| 1t is also probable that the clause
abrogating the Hawaiian treaty will
/ be stricken out. There has been some
contention among the Democratic
| members OH this score, and two or
| three votes have been taken upon the
| proposition to strike it out, the ma
! jOrity at first opposing the change.
| The principal argument for strik-
4 Ing IL OUT, was OdcCd dpOil 11AC
| ground of expediency. 1t was urged
| if permitted to remain it would be
| the means of introducing the Hawai-
ian complications into tariff discus
sion. All agreed this should be avoid
ed, if possible, without surrendering
too much. and the latest reliable
| statement is that this argument won,
and the amendment will be stricken
| out.
A dispatch from Washington on
| the 23d inst. stated that Senator
Hansborough of North Dakota is pre-
pairing an amendment to the tariff
| bill restoring the present bounty on
| sugar, and placing the duty Of per
cent. ad valorem on refined sugar. He
| thinks it will receive the support of
all the Republicans, the Populists and
| the two Louisiana Senators, which
would carry it in the Senate by ma
iOrity of one vote.

Hawaiian Matters.

WASHINGTON, Mar. 20.-Tbe SEN
ate today, after having received the
Tariff bill from the Finance Com
mittee, did little else than 10 listen to
a speech by Senator George of Missis-
sippi on the legal aspects of affairs in
Hawaii. Previous to the beginning
of his speech Senator Turpie of In
diana tried to have the Senate agree
mutually upon a time for the consider
alton of his Hawaiian resolution
which caused quite q stir some weeks
ago. Senator Dolph prevented any
agreement being reached by declaring
that he was not IN favor of fixing any
date at this time.
AT the conclusion of Mr.. Georges
speech the Senate passed bill author
izing the Secretary of War to lend
condemned cannon and cannon balls
to the association having in charge
the monument on Government land
at Chicago to the Confederate dead
buried there. \ bill for the relief of

San Francisco News.

The law abiding community of San
Francisco was thoroughly shocked on
March 23rd by a crime the boldness
of which has not been eaualed since
the days OF gold and lawlessness. On
that Day William Fredericks the pal
of Sontag and Evans, California's
most notorious bandits, entered the
branch OF the San Francisco Saw
ings Union at Polk and Market
streets, and demanded of Cashier Wm.
Herrick that be open the safe and de-
liver the money therein Herrick re-
fused and the bandit undertook to
shoot him but the cartridge missed
fire; the cashier then drew his pistol
and the bandit and himself exchanged
shots at the same time. The banker
was shot through the heart and killed
instantly. His assassin then fed
followed by bullet from the book
keepers revolver and was finally cap
tured half mile away and claimed
to be in a dying condition. he had
been shot in the head and declared
that the bank cashier did the shoot
ing, but those who pursued him state
that he shot himself before he sur
rendered. The desperate will proba-
bly, die from his wound There u
considerable talk among the business
men i'm the city with reference to the
organization of the old time COM
mittee of safety TO rid San Francisco
of desperate characters OF this class.
On the 18th inst. the city of Oak
land was treated TO a horrible sensation
in the matter of a murder and suicide
committed in the Church Of the I'M
msculate Conception. One John Brady
whose wife had divorced him two
years ago followed her TO the house Of
God, shot her dead, and while kneel-
ing over her body destroyed his worth
less life. As the church had been
defiied, mass and the services were
held in the open air.

men at starvation wages, and glcrying In
disadvantage gained by them.
The doctrine that the man who tries to
reduce the value of labor is the enemy Of
the wage Garner may be new, and to the
mind of the prudent purchaser may be
rank heresy but the logic is irrefragi-
bic. and men who are endeayoring to re-
duce the rates of transportation are con-
spring against the possibility of high
rate of wages to railroad operatives.
Their answer to this will be that there
is vast margin of profit to the railroad
companies, and that what they are seek
ing to cut off is the railroads profit and
not the rate of wages paid railroad opera
tives. This will appear plausible. There
viii be thousands of persons to be de-
ceiyed by it. Ignorance and stupidity
have forever been the easy, willing VIC
tins of the demagogue. In order to
make the professions of friendship for
railroad labor consistent with the declara-
ton in favor of reducing the earnings of
railroads % per cent, the convention
should have declared that concurrent
with such reduction of the rate of freights
and fares a law should be enacted pre-
venting railroad companies from redue-
ing the scale Of wages to correspond with
the reduction in their earnings.
Is Mr.. La Rue and his compeers willing
to meet this issue? Are they willing
to declare in favor of legislation prohibit
ing any reduction of wages to railroad
operatives. and yet declare in favor of
just such reduction of railroad earnings
as may be suitable to the purposes of the
demagogue? Until they do, their pro-
fessions will be self-contradictory and
hopelessly inconsistent.
The record-union., 1894-08-27
WHAT'S IN a NAMEa

Barney Murphy of San Jose was re-
fused nomination because James E. Muir
ply of Del Norte had already received
one. Murphy of Del Norte was strong
enough before the convention to make
the nomination of Justices of the StI-
preme Court take precedence of the nom
nations for Governor. Murphy of Del
Norte wanted to appear before the con-
vention before another Murphy had his
name on the ticket. Murphy of San ose
tried to defeat Murphy of Del Norte be-
cause he believed that the convention
would not want to Murphy -ize the ticket.
This is history. Now as to its meaning.
The objection to the name of Murphy
was hypercritical. No one would have
objected to have two Smiths on the ticket,
two Jones or two Browns. Murphy is a
name almost as common as that of Smith;
quite as common as that Of Brown, and
approximately as numerous as that of
Jones. But Murphy is peculiarly Irish
name, and the Democratic party which
depends upon the Irish votes for all the
success it will ever achieve could not en-
dure the idea of having the name of Muir
ply twice on the State ticket
The Democratic press of the State will
not deny the statement that the nomina-
ton of Jas. E. Murphy for judicial posi-
ton defeated the nomination of Barney
Murphy for the head of the ticket. An
equal regard for the truth would force
them to admit that the name of Murphy
was not agreeable to the "chiv" element
or wing of the Democratic party. and that
it was the "chtvs" like Foote. English
and La Rue, who could not stand two
Murphys on one ticket.
