RETALIATINC.
Colombia Was Warned Not to Hold Out
Against Reciprocity.


Against Reciprocity.
Washington, May 31.-General Reg
nifo. representative here of the repub-
lie of Colombia, expects TO be author
lied by his government to present a
claim against the United States for
damages sustained by Colombia by
reason of President Harrison's procla-
nation of tariff retaliation. Secretary
Blaine effected reciprocity treaties with
most of the Central and South Amer
lean republics, but Colombia and other
countries refused to make such treat
les. They were warned that If they
held out against reciprocity they
would be retaliated against. This
failed to effect any arrangement.
Thereupon. at the suggestion of Sec
retary of state John w. Foster Pres
ident Harrison proclaimed discriminat-
ing tariff rates against coffee, hides,
sugar and molasses of Colombia.
This practically ruined the trade of
Colombia, as her coffee and hides
could not be sent to this country
against the competition of Brazil. Mex
leo and other countries which enjoyed
freedom from duties under reciprocity
treaties. These exports to the United
States reached about 100000 pesos. a
peso being worth about As cents. but
Immediately after the proclamation
they fell to almost nothing. Colombia
protested against retaliation, claiming
that the most favored nation clause of
the treaty with the United States pro-
tected her against tariff discrimina-
ton. Secretary Foster and the Colon
bian minister, Senior Hurtado. carried
on a sharp and very personal cores
pondence, and Minister Hurtado final
ly left Washington with the statement
that he would not return until a set
tlement was effected. No settlement
was ever made. and a submission of
Colombia's claim for loss and damage
sustained will be the result.

Chicago. May 31.-The suit OF the
Pullman Palace Car company against
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railroad company for $70O.00 came up
before Judge Seaman i'm the United
States court this morning. In 1882 the
two companies entered into a lJ-year
contract. which the road was priye-
legged TO end at the expiration Of FIVE.
eight or II years. The railroad fur
nished 100000 and the Pullman COM
pany 100000 for the building and
equipment of 40 parlor and sleeping
cars. to be run on the road. The Pull
man company was to take charge Of
the operation of the cars and each
year render an accounting and make
a division of the profits according TO
the interests OF each. The contract
provided that the railroad could pay
the Pullman company 100000 and be-
come sole owner of the cars and the
services. At the expiration of the eight
years, in 1890. the railroad gave notice
10 the Pullman company Of its inten-
tion TO buy out the latter. The Pull
man company claimed 500. 200 for their
fourth interest. and the railroad in
sisted on deducting several thousand
dollars for damages To the cars. This
was not allowed. and now the Pull
man company is suing for 500. 600

HILL ON SHERMAN.
He Says That He Was Startled at the
Senator's Remarks.

Senator's Remarks.
Albany, n. Y, May Ex-senator Hill
was asked to-day whether he had read
Senator Sherman's speech on the none
tary question. Yes" said the sena-
tor, Il have carefully perused Senator
Sherman's speech. If an Ohio demo-
crat had made the speech there would
have been condemnation all along the
republican ranks. The implication
startled me-that there are, in a pros
porous state like Ohio, republican vot-
ers who wish to degrade our dollar
standard, repudiate one-half of our
public debt and pay their debts in
cheaper money than they promised to
pay. Senator Sherman said what was
new to me-that for ii years after the
resumption of specie payments. while
the republican party was in power, we
had gold, silver and paper money pass
ing current in all parts of the CONNER
cial world. l had never known that
from 1880 to 1884, when Cleveland came,
our silver dollars and greenback dol
lars were exportable like our gold dol
lars. One of my objections to our pres
ent government making full legal ten
der silver and greenback dollars is that
they are not exportable.
II would exterminate forever green
back dollars. which, by their endless
redemption character. make the chief
est of our existing currency woes.
would, by international bimetallism,
establish coinage at the ratio of 151A
and lift our standard silver into world
wide parity with our gold dollar. If
1 could have my wish, 1 would have
the treasury purchase not another
ounce of silver. or coin another silver
dollar under the existing conditions.
The possibility of international bimet-
allism on the ratio of 151z has been
fairly tested by the whole power of
the United States. exerted earnestly
and in good faith by congress, the
president and cabinet. the secretary of
state, the country's diplomatic and
consular agents everywhere"

suit for annulment Of marriage. When
that case was over MorriIl presented
his bill to his client. who refused TO

duced depositions of nine Fargo at
torneys who deposed that from $4,000
to $4,000 was reasonable compensation
for a like case involving as much work
and time as the annulment suit had
done. The defense contended that as
Hershfield had lost the Fargo suit, the
services OF Morrill were not worth the
amount asked.

New York, May 3l.-Thomas ii. Carter,
chairman of the republican national COM
mittee, in a public statement says: In
1896 the republican party will stand for
protection and the restoration of bimet-
allism on a substantial and enduring
basis. There may be differences of opin-
ion on the schedules, but not upon the
principles of protection. There will be
differences of oninion as to the best course
to pursue to secure free and unlimited
coinage OF both gold and silver at fixed
ratio. but there will be no difference of
opinion as to the desirability to bring
about that result. Upon one question
there will be neither difference of opin-
ion as to the general principle involved
nor the means to be employed. That is
with reference to the restoration of vig-
orous, thorough foreign policy"
