TIES OF 1890 ARE TO BE

NEW IRON AND STEEL SCHEDULE,
1t Has Been Practically Decided
Upon by the Republican Menu
beers of the House Committee.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The Repub-
lican members Of the ways and means
committee devoted their attention to-
day to the schedule Of wood and manu-
features of wood, and decided to re-
store the Mckinley rates practically in
full, with the important exception of
white pine. In response to the general
demand of the representatives of the
| lumber interests who complained that
the Canadians were capturing the
American market for white pine, this
wood was raised to it's ola rate in the act
of 1888, which is 81 per 1000 feet sawed.
The manufacturers Of pine, clapboards
and shingles are raised corresponding
ly, so that all forms in pine will pay
the same duties as spruce. Pine was
dutiable at 81 under the law Of 1888,
but when the Mckinley bill was framed
the rate was reduced to 81, so that
in the new bill it with pay twice the
rates Of the Mckinley act.
The Wilson act placed lumber and
nearly all forms of wood on the free
list. Under the revived Mckinley
schedule timber, squared or sided, will
pay one-half cent a cubic foot; sawed
boards, planks, deals and other lum-
Der of hemlock, white wood, sycamore
and Eastwood, 81 per 1000 feet, board
measure, and other sawed lumber, So
per 1000 feet. Lumber planed or fin
ished will pay so cents thousand feet
in addition for each side planed or fin
ished and so cents more per 1000 feet
when tongued and grooved.
Cedar posts, telegraph and telephone
poles and ties paid 20 per cent ad val
orem under the Mckinley law; sawed
boards and planks and all forms of
sawed cedar, ebony, mahogany and
other cabinet woods not further manu-
featured than sawed, paid 20 per cent
ad valorem; casks, barrels, empty
boxes etc., 80 per cent, and furniture
35 per cent.
The committee has practically decid-
ed upon the iron and steel schedule
The duty fixed Is considered fair to
Minnesota and adjacent states. Hoop
or barrel iron is to be taken off the
list and will be rated at IL cents per
pound, according to thickness. Steel
rails are to come in at greatly reduced
rates. The present duty is equivalent
to $784 ton, and the new rates will
be about 81 per ton. On lead ores and
lead dross the duty has been placed
at 1 cent per pound, instead of &c,
under the present law. On lead in pigs
and bars and molten and old refuse
lead run into blocks and bars and old
scrap lead fit only to be manufactured,
the new rate is cents per pound. This
is an increase Of 1 cent.

CANTON, O., Feb. 5.-National
Chairman M. A. Hanna, who came here
this afternoon, had about three hours
in the city, the greater part # which
time was spent in consultation with
Maj. Mckinley. II am not talking
now" he said, because I have nothing
to say, and there is no use ins.sting. !"
While there was mucn conjecture in
Canton and elsewhere, when his visit
was announced, about todays confer
ence being in connection with his ac-
ceptance of the postmaster-g eneralship.
it is not believed that such was the
object Of his trip. The gossip predict
ing that Mr.. Hanna will not enter the
senate as the successor Of Senator
Sherman because Gov. Bushnell will
not appoint him is not generally be-
lieved here and by the majority Of
Ohioans who come here.
One Of the days visitors arrived
from the East this forenoon, and while
he declined to give his name or talk
Of his mission, it is supposed that he
was John G. Searles, of New York. He
went to the train on which Mr.. Hanna
arrived, and the two men rode alone to
the Mckinley house. There was a.
vague rumor that Mr.. Searles was here
on behalf Of Col. J. j. McCook for a
cabinet place, but nothing in the line
or ver1f1cation is obtainable. However,
Col. McCook is still in cabinet gossip.
John Addison Porter, editor of the
Hartford Evening Post, who has been
selected for President McKinley's pri-
Vate secretary, came here this after
noon and remains over night.

JONES is SLATED.
Bushnell Will Appoint Him to Sue
ceed Senator Sherman.


CLEVELAND, o., Feb. 5.-Lieut.
Gov. Asa w. Jones, Of Youngstown,
who, it is admitted, will succeed Sena-
tor Sherman in the United States SEN
ate has arrived from Columbus, where
he has been in conference with Gov.
Bushnell. Previous to that he had
been in Cincinnati where he had
been in conference with Senator-elect
Foraker. Lieut.. Gov. Jones did not ad
NIT frankly that he had been rendered
the appointment Of senator, but said
enough to confirm the rumors which
have connected his name with that
position, which means Mr.. Hanna will
not be appointed senator to succeed
Sherman.
On the subject Of the GAINESVILLE
agreement, Gov. Jones was silent. The
GAINESVILLE agreement was made two
years ago. AS entered into, it was
that. If Bushnell and Jones should be
reelected, Bushnell was to be made
senator and thus elevate Jones to
the gubeTnatOrial chair Bushnell still
has designs on the senate, but fears
that to resign now and let. Jones ap-
point him senator, and thus carry out
the GAINESVILLE agreement, would cause
dissension among Republicans, who
think that Hanna is entitled to con-
sideration. This would hurt the chances
of success of the state and Legislative
ticket next fall SO Jones is cOnciliated
with the vacancy In the senate. Then,
according to the programme, Bush
nell Is to be elected to the senate.

ment that the Dupont case could not
be reopened, having once been passed
upon by the senate. The fact Of this
course is to leave J. e. Addicks as
the contestant for the seat held by
Mr. Kenney.
The Allen resolutions, questioning
the right Of the executive to foreclose
on the Pacific railroads, was taken up
early in the day, Mr.. Thurston, Of Ne
braska, continuing his speech in OPP
position. At 2 o'clock the Nicaragua
canal bill displaced the Pacific rail-
reads, and Allen, Of Nebraska, and
Caffery, Of louisiana, opposed the
canal bill. The latter although favor
ing an isthmian canal, opposed the
plan Of this BILL saying it would re-
suit in the reckless waste Of $l00, 000,-
GOO. The canal bill was laid aside to
allow the senate to take up bills on
the calendar. About fifty pension bills
were passed, including those pension
ing the widow of Gen. Samuel A. Rice,
$50 widow of Gen. w. A. Nichols, $50;
widow of Capt. Richard Law, q. S. N,
$50; widow Of Gen. e. S. Parker, $50;

CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-From all parts Of the
country men who wiring their incomes from

tonight at the telegraphers' ball held under
the auspices of the Morse Cycling club OF
this city The affair was O brilliant sue

Wires had been run into the buildings and
the ball room was encircled by a series Of
''sounders adjusted SO as to make the r clat-

Of the hail. Over the wires the main Offices
of the Western Union and Postal companies
kept going a stream OF messages and bulle-

the instruments sounded shrill above the
music Of the orchestra and the pattcr Of
gliding feet, and added much to the occasion

M'kENNA A CERTAINTY.
He VIII He i'm the Cabinet, Probobly
Francis Staecessor

San FRANCISCO, Feb. 5-Judge
McKenna, of the circuit court last
night authorized the statement that
ne mas been invited to accent a nosi-
tlon IN the cabinet of President-elect
mckinney and also that he had signi-
ned MS acceptance. He did not care
TO give for publication the dispatch in
which the tender of position was made
nor did he wish to make his response
known. He considered the telegrams
conndent1aI and personal. He has ex-
pected the communication from Cam
ton. he will leave the latter part Of
the month for Washington, ready to
enter upon his new duties immediate
~ after the inaug ton. Whether
Judge Mckenna is to be attorney gen
eraI or secretary OF t1aer interior in the
new administration is known only to
the president-elect.
Yes he said last night, 1T have
received telegram from President
elect Mckinley proferring me a place
in the cabinet. / have wired an ac-
ceptance"
las secretary OF the INTERIOR"
Il do not know that The telegram
did not state. 1t will be either that or
attorney general. l am inclined to
think, however that it will be the in
terror, as that place generally goes to
western man. and further, as that
secretaryship was the principal topic
in the discussion In my interview with
the president-elect"
This telegram and the statement puts
at rest all doubts as to CALIFORNIA;
representation in the cabinet. 1t was
pretty we'll known that he would be
given a place. Those who read be-
tween the lines of the dispatches from
Canton, were convinced that the ques-
ton was not whether McKenna was to
represent the West in the cabinet, but
what position he would be given. The
latter part is not yet settled by Of
fetal declaration, though Judge Nc
Kenna believes that the interior will
be his portfolio.
