IMMENSE WOOL IMPORTS.

I
Mr.. Gailinger started the senate on
debate by calling attention to the enor-
nous imports OF wool in anticipation
of the new tariff. Under such circun-
stances, ne said, ii was to be hoped
partisan feeling could be put aside and
a united effort made toward securing
early action.
REBUKED By WHITE.
Mr. White (Dem., CALI, referred IRON
ically TO his ''anticipatOry lecture to
the Democratic side. He thought DEM
ocratic senators would not pursue the
tactics of delay of the New Hampshire
senator during the previous tariff de-
bate. Up to this time the Republican
members of the finance committee had
occupied such time as had been given
to the tariff bill Before limitations
were made of Democratic de,av 1t
would be well. the senator said, TO
wait until offense was given.
Mr.. Chandler (Rep., n. H) COM
mended his colleagues TO the views of
Mr.. Buchanan, the last of the Demo-
cratic presidents, against the tempta-
ton to make long tariff speeches
He was happy to learn that the SEN
ator from California CWhite) was ready
to refrain from long speeches in the in
terest of the industries of California
Mr.. Lindsay asked if Buchanan's doc
trine of increasing rates from 20 to 40
per cent was also acceptable to the Re-
publican side.
THE VORACIOUS INFANTS.
The senator proceeded to criticize the
general policy of protection. Originally
the infant industries had received
moderate aid, but these infants, grown
to manhood, wanted more protection
- ~ frV7
The discussion had been quite free
up to this time but it settled down TO
an argument as to the effect of wool
duty in which MeSsrs. Lindsay, Gal
linger, Aldrich and Hoar participated.
Aside from the sharp personal col
loquies it developed, the debate was
mainly technical.
During the discussion Mr.. White
Dem., Cal) desired to know of Mr..
Chandler whether the house or senate
bill was the ideal bill.
As a whole, Mr.. Chandler replied, he
favored the senate bill. though he did
not know whether it raised or lowered
the duties on California fruits, which
would perhaps influence the senator
from California.
ITO be specific" said Mr. White. Il
will ask whether the senator considers
the sugar duty of the house or the sem
ate the ideal duty
L have not examined either" was
the reply. but / will answer when the
bill is considered in detail. 1 viii ask
whether the sena tor is in favor of pro-
lection of American industries
And that I will answer" retorted
Mr. White, when the bill is considered
in detail

Pettus (Denl.. Ala.), and moved an ad-
journment to Monday, which, at p.

Journal, details how science at the

many years ago." he says, "when IN
OK was slaughtered forty per cent. of
the animal was wasted; at the present
time nothing is lost but its dying
breath As but one third OF the
weight Of the animal consists of prod.
ucts that can be eaten, the question
Ct utilizing the waste is a serious one.
The blood is used in refining sugar
and in sizing paper, or manufactured
into door knobs and buttons. The
hide goes to the tanner; horns aud
boots are transformed into combs and
buttons; thigh bones worth eighty
dollars ton are cut into handles for
clothes brushes; fore leg bones sell
for thirty dollars per ton for collar
buttons, parasol handles and jewelry;
the water in which bones are boiled
is reduced to glue; the dust from
saving the bones is food for cattle
and poultry; the smallest bones are
made into boneblack. Each foot
yields quarter ot pint OF meats
foot oil; the tail goes to the soup;
while the brush of hair at the end OF
the tail is sold to the mattress maker.
The choicer parts Of the fat make the
basis of butterine; the intestines are
used for sausage casing or bought by
gold beaters. The undigested food
in the stomach, which formerly cost
the packers of Chicago thirty thous-
and dollars year to remove and de-
stroy, is now made into paper. These
are but few OF the products of abat-
toirs. All scraps unfit for any other
use find welcome in the glue pot or
