AN ALLEGED POLL
Of the States on Silver. the Tariff, and
the Income Tax.

New York June 2.-The World pub
fishes a telegraphic poll of the next con-
gress as far as obtainable upon the silver
and income tax questions. The World
sums up the result as follows:
In general way, it may be said, that
out of 116 members who gave unequiyo-
cal answers to the silver questions, %
are unqualifiedly in favor of free coinage,
A favor bimetalism generally, with the
proviso of an international agreement.
Only seventeen can fairly be classed as
favoring a single gold standard, and the
attitude of some of these even is not def
mite. The South and far Western States
are almost unanimous for free coinage,
the Central States lean toward silver
with international bimetallic qualifica-
tons, and it is only in New York, New
England and adjacent Eastern States
that are any avowedly gold standard
men.
In regard to the tariff, only % members
are against all change, while 30 favor
moderate changes, and SO are pronounced
for radical changes. A few are free-trad-
ers. The moderates are chiefly those who
think changes will be necessary in order
to increase revenues.
The income tax question brought out
many sharp and piquant answers. Forty
nine congressman say they favor the prin-
! ciple of the tax. Forty-seven oppose it.
A great many evaded the question or
failed to answer.
A few details by States will be interest
ing. Alabama, Arkansas, California, Col
Orado, Florida, Idaho, Mississippi, Mon
tana, Nevada, North Carolina, South
Carolina, South Dakota, Virginia, Wash
ington and Wyoming are solid for silver
as far as heard from. ..s
Tue binetalic p, rty is chiefly in DA!a-
ware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,
Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Minneso-
ta,, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsyl.
yania and West Virginia. New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Is.
land, Massachusetts and Vermont have
the sold advocates. '.''i f' s
Alabama, Arkansas, Texas, the Caro-
linas, Georgia, louisiana and most of the
Southern States are solid for the income
tax. New York and the East generally
oppose it. Elsewhere the division is near
" oven.

OTHER MILLS IREoPENED.

i Providence, r. l.. June 3.--The mills
at OlneyFille opened this morning at the
regular hour for the admission of any
operatives who wish to return, but the
number who went in was but small per,
centage Of the force regularly employed

time, and If any Of their former employees
do not return, they win engage any opera,

At the Riverside mills 100 out of 100
hands went back to their old positions
this morning. OF these 10 We're weavers.
This is q sufficinet number TO insure the
running of the plant. Some GOO of the
2200 hands returned to work at the At.

orally expected large number would

turned and the machinery was not started

THE JERSEYS AHEAD.

This test was from August 20 to Sep
tembcr ~, 1893, both inclusive. Number
of cows in test, 10 Jerseys, u short
horns, and ID Guernseys. 1t differed
from either of the other tests in one es-
sential, that butter was the only product
that was credited. No value was allow
ed for increase in live weight, and, mas
much as no credit was given for solids
other than butter fat, the quantity of
milk given by the cows and breeds was
not matter of any bearing upon the test
The actual amount of butter made by
each breed in the churn. upon the basis
of so per cent oil in the butter was cred
tied, and each cow received credit for her
proper proportion thereof, ascertained by
the analysis of her milk and the determi..
nation of the fat by the Babcock ma
chine.
The same precautions We're taken in
this rs in former tests in weighing the
milk and sampling same in the analysis
and in the retention of the milk under
seal after leaving the barns until placed
in the vat for skimmng. The butter was
scored on the same scale of points, but
the value allowed differed from that in
test No. in one respect. AS before, but
ter scoring 80 points was valued at 80
cents pound that scoring 95 points, 40
cents. But in this test for every point
above each of the figures named one cent
per pound was added. In all other re-
spects this test was conducted upon the
same principle and with the same safe
guards as tests Nos. and 2.
The quantity of butter of the Jerseys
exceeded that of the Guernseys by 49,
OIL pounds, and that of the short horns
by 174.551 pounds. The value of the but
ter of the Jerseys was $55.S2 in excess
of that of the Guernseys, and $S1.91 in
excess of that of the short horns. The
net profit of the Jerseys, after deducting
the cost of feed, exceeding that of the
Guernseys by $37.125 equal to a net
poht per head per day of $1.24, or
cents per head per day., and that of the
short horns by $75.236 or $2.51 per head
per day, or 16 cents per head per day.
The cost Of feed of the Jerseys for the 80
days exceeded that of the Guernseys by
$lS47, but it produced value in butter of
$S7.12 over the Guernseys, or over 200
per cent net profit. ..--.'.' IN
There were three substitute Jerseys,
one Of which had been in milk for more
than five months, no five substituted
Guernseys, most of which were fresher
cows, and four substituted short horns.
The cost of producing one pound of but
ter in this test was slightly in favor of
the Guernseys, attributable to the fact
that they had more fresh cows in their
herd. The. cost of producing a pound of
butter in the 80 days test was largely in
favor of the Jerseys; the characteristics
of the breed had not changed between
the two tests, but the Guernseys were
more fortunate in having fresher cows.
This is further demonstrated by taking
the cost of feed per pound of butter for
the 30 days test, which is: Jerseys, 10
cents per pound; Guernseys, IA cents per
pound; short horns, II cents per pound.

GENERAL PASSENGER AGENTS
MEETING

Chicago, June "A call has been sent
out for meeting of general passenger
agents of all lines interested in the bust
ness formerly under control of the west
ern Passenger association, to be held in
this city June II. 1t is hoped that by
that time it will be possible to organize
a strong association with all lines in the
territory as members. The date of the
meeting has been fixed so far ahead that
arrangements can be made for full at"
tendance.
George NJ. Gray. general ticket agent
of the Pullman Palace Car company, and
one of the best railroad men in the coun-
try, died today. Mr.. Gray suffered a
stroke of paralysis and his death was not
unexpected. He was very popular in rail-
road and BUSINESS circles and had many
friends.

HARDWARE JOBBERS ASSOCIA,
TTON

Louisville, KY, June 2.-The Southern
Hardware Jobbers association, composed
of the leading hardware jobbers, decided
some weeks ago to hold its annual meet
ing in Louisville on June II. Mr.. @. H.
Huhlin, chairman of the executive COM
mittee, announces that all arrangements
have been completed for the accommo'
dation and entertainment of those at
tending the convention, and an old-fash-
toned Kentucky welcome will be extend
ed to them. 1t is expected that the at
tendance will be large, as matters of i'm
portance pertaining to the trade will be
under discussion.

Austin as the Next Place OF Meeting.
As has been published before the Texas
Woman's Press association had their sec
ond annual meeting in Houston during the
Confederate reunion.
The ladies present were types of in
tellectual womanhood, of which the State
of Texas may be justly proud. They were
in earnest in their efforts to bring their
work up to high standard, both literary
and journalistic, and the quiet and sys-
tematic manner in which they proceeded
to dispatch the business of the meeting
was an effectual proof that a woman
knows the value of time and can use it
to its best advantage.
The wisest thing the convention did,
however, was to select Austin as its next
annual meeting place next May This is
an honor that the citizens of Austin
should appreciate. They should see to it
that these ladies are accorded a most
cheerful welcome upon their arrival here
as is their due.
The convention also further honored
Austin by selecting Mrs. Bride Neill Tay
lor of this city as its president, which
is an honor justly merited and justly be-
slowed. In this connection it, would be
wei Ito state that the Texas Woman's
Press association, although only in the
third year of its existence, is firmly on its
feet. and is undoubtedly going to- be the
chief means of bringing forward Texas
into ats, proper place in the field of litera-
ture.. 1t numbers nearly e. one hundred
members. Among these are several Wo-
men who manage and edit newspapers of
their own; several others who do so in
partnership with their husands; still 9th
ems who are well paid and much apreci-
ated memeprs of the stats of our leading
dailies, while in the domain of poetry and
fiction our MEMBERS have made their way
into the pages of such magazines as
Harper's, the Century, the Cosmopolitan,
Lippincotts, Godey's, the Ladies' Home
Journal, the Youths Companion, and 9TH
! ers which confer equal honor, on their
contributors. Many others are authors
of more or less successful books. Ma
urally such an association deserves to be
honored and cherished by every cultured
Texan. :. .tlp -. ay' r.T... 81 d.

INDICTMENT OJTASHED

Chattanooga, Tenn, June BIN the
circuit court today the indictment against
NJ. ]. O'Brien. the late treasurer of the
Catholic Knights of America, was found
to be fatally defective and was quashed:
to $4,000, to hold the defendant until the

DESERTED AND SKIPPED

Key West, Fla, June 2.-Private and
reliable adyices from Havana are to the
effect that Lieutenant Gard, civil acting
chief of police at Puerto Principe, has
deserted and embarked ON board foreign
pilot boat for Liverpool. Some acts he
had committed and his pursuits of the in
surgent band of Maurice Montejo be-
yond the limits of his jurisdiction which
he had not been ordered to do. prompted
his desention. Captain General Campos
is displeased over the incident.

THE TREASURY DEFICIT.
Will be Less Than Expected and Not
Over S44,O00,00O.


Washington, June 2.-Treasury officials
are now confident that the close of the tis-
cal year, one month hence, will show a
deficit of not more than $44, 100000, and
possibly not more than $43,0O0,OOO, which
is at least $1,000, 600 less than predicted
only a few weeks ago, and S3,OOO,OOO or
$4,000,000 less than the present figures.
1t is shown that the pension payments
during June will be at least 50, 5OO,OOO
less than for May and that the pay
ments on account of interest will also
be reduced 81, 100000 With an increase
from internal revenue of $3,0OOO0O on
account of receipt from special liquor, to-
baccO and Oleomargerne licenses, which
must be paid before July 1, and very mate
rial reductions in pension and interest
payments. 1t is confidently expected that
next month will show a small surplus
with the deficit further reduced to at
least $44,000,000. The month of July,
however, is likely to see the deficit in
creased by at least $10,000,000, as that
months interest payments will aggregate
about $7,000000. Disbursements in every
branch of the government are usually
much heavier in July than in any other
month. so that without the receipts are
greatly increased the deficit on August
| will not likely fall much short of $780,
100000 for the thirteen months.
