Washington, Feb. 25.-The senate
committee on finance today discussed

ton act. The vote for consideration

ocrats); the negative votes by Morrill,,

FOREIGN PR1soN-MADE- GOODS
Report to the Commons That Their I'm
port Is Not Harmful.

London, Feb. 24.-The report OF the
special parliamentary commission on
the importation Of foreign prison made
goods was laid upon the table Of the
house Of commons today. Among the
commissioners are Lord Thring and
Horace Seymour. There was split in
the commission shortly after it began to
take evidence, and several of the men,
bers, headed by Sir Howard Vincent,
the eminent political economist, refused
to take any further part in the pro-
ceedings.
The report Of the commission sum-
married says that no evidence was in
trOduced that would establish the fact
that goods made in foreign prisons were
Imported to this country in such guam
titles as to injure British trade gener-
ally. Two trades only, brush makers
and mat makers, made serious COM
plants Of injury, and these were found
ed solely on the Importation Of Belgian
and German goods; but there was little
! proof that these were prison made, or
any evidence to show that British in
dustries in general felt any evil results
| from the competition of the various
other trades carried on in foreign pris-
ons throughout the world. The commit
tee adds that any prohibitory legisla-
| ton would involve administrative ac-
| ton of a kind which would be most in
furious to trade, and which would prob
ably create International difficulties.

and friends were in the blinds, decoys
were set and two men stationed on the
shore with small boat to pick up the
ducks as they were brought down. The
president will probably have good duck
shooting, as the ice is broken and ducks
are quite plentiful on the feeding
grounds, which have been covered with
