THE DUTY ON COAL
One Of tho Knotty Problems of the
Tariff Bill.


One of the knotty problems in the tariff
bill yet to be settled is what rate uf duty
shall be placed Oh coal. Senator Elkins
and Senator Wellington, who represent
states in which this interest is an i'm
poTtant one, are unwilling that the rate
shall he under 90 cents a ton. and they
are really hopeful that before the matter
is finally settled they will be able to force
compromise at CT cents. The II 0use
rate IL 75 cents, or the same which pre-
vailed prior tC the passage of the Wilson
bill, when it was lowered to 40 cents ton,
after prolonged struggle in favor OF free
coal.
It remains to be seen whether Messrs.
e. kins and wellington will be able to over
come the demands of the great companies
engaged in 10th mining and transporta-
tion in the States of Ohio and Pennsylva
MIA, who have petitioned Congress TO per
nit the duty to remain al 40 cents ton.
Mr.. sewell has presented petition
from the Pennsylvania and Ohio coal and
transportation companies, employing. in
the aggregate, $40 600 men, exclusive of
clerks in the offices, in which arguments
were submitted 10 SHOW tIlat unless tnelr
wishes are granted, the United States VIII
meet with enormous losses. They are doing
an immense export trade with Canada in
coal, and it is feared that If the duty goes
above 40 cents a ton, Canada Will retail
ate. Senator Mark Hanna 'scom pany signed
the petition referred to.
In the Mills bill of 1888, coal was fixed
at 75 cents ton. All efforts then o lower
the rate failed, and Mr.. Dingley and his
associates on the Ways and Means Com
nittee think IL should be main ia ined
Indications are there will be an animated
discussion over the paragraph relating TO
coal.

DEATH FOLLOWS FIRE.
An Early Morning Blaze in New York Re

suits In the Loss OF Two Lives.
New York, May 24.-Two persons
were killed in a fire which started
shortly after o'clock Sunday morning
in the four-story and basement brown
stone building at 149 West Twenty
third street. Several persons narrowly
escaped death. The dead are:
Mrs. Catherine Mossway 80 years; died at
hospital from sufocation and burns
Beatrice Mossway years old, daughter Of
the former; sufIocated in her room
Injured-Mrs, Mary c, Bowles, of Boston,
dangerously hurt by jumping from window
on the third floor
Miss Macdonald, burned on face.
The building was occupied for both
business and dwelling purposes. In
the basement is an all-night eating
house. Before the firemen reached
the scene the building was filled with
flames. The Railways from the first
floor to the roof were in flames and
escape by the front was cut off.
While tenant named Lamont was
crawling along the narrow sill to reach
the adjoining house, the body of wo-
man struck a large sign which hung
on the outside of the building and to
which he clung for support. The sign
was torn from its fastenings and fell
to the street The woman was Mrs.
Bowles, who had thrown herself from
the third floor to the street when she
found that egress from tho house by
way Of the street was checked by the
flames. She was picked up and taken
to hospital, Lamont did not fall to
the street.
On the top floor the widest sort of
panic seized the women, among whom
were Mrs. Mossway and her daughter.
Most of the tenants had escaped to the
roof. Mrs. Mossway was sleeping with
her little daughter, when she was
aroused by the smoke She ran into
the hall and gave the alarm and then
went back after her daughter When
she started to return the smoke and
flames drove her again to her room.
She attempted to open the window,
but it did not yield readily, and she
broke the glass with her hands The
window would not open, and even If 1t
had there would have been little
chance for her, as it is protected on the
outside by iron bars. When the fire.
men searched the house they found
the little girl dead in bed, the mother
lying on the floor blistered by heat and
almost dead from suffocation.

turers must guarantee the pay of the
employees, who must be paid weekly,

The National Financial School.

The National Financial school is the
name of an organization which is maxi
ing some headway in the middle north
ern states and perhaps also in other
sections of the country. Its ostensible
object is to conduct nonpartisan study
of American finance. It's prospectus,
however, contains some expressions
such as restoration of a thoroughly
American financial policy" which indi-
Gates the real object of the promoters.
The organization was recently extended
into Boone county, Ind, where seven
financial schools besides the advance
school" and the county school" are
now in operation, each with presidents,
secretaries, instructors and directors.
These financial schools should be en-
couraged by all sound money men and
organizations. There is no more GER
tain way of ridding the country of the
sixteen-to-one-er than by educating the
voters on the money question. II the
schools are real schools and not merely
lecture rooms, there cannot be too many

THE DRIFT TOWARD GOLD.
Silver Nations Are Gradually Coming

sional elections; while bimetalliC
commission has just been appointed to
visit the European governments in the
interest of international bimetallism,
there may be perceived all over the
world an unmistakable drift toward the
single standard of gold. Since the ap-
pointment of the United States com.

indicate that their mission will be fruit.
less, and that there is no more prCbabili.
ty of those governments returning to
bimetallism than there is of their re.
turning to flintlock muskets for their
armies. The latest announcement is
from Russia, which is to the effect that
she is irrcvocably committed to the gold
standard.
But it is not in Europe alone that
this tendency is observable. The wis
dom and apparent case with which the
japanese government has planned the
adoption Of the gold standard is one OF
the marvels of modern craftsmanship
and marks the people ps among the
most sagacious nations of the earth.
LaggaId China also seems to be awalS-
ing from her silver dream of isolation
and Is anxious to have the customs du-
ties at the treaty ports placed on the
gold basis, as they substantially were
when the treaties were made. The de-
probation Of silver has greatly crippled
her revenues, and now that she is COM
ing into closer financial connection with
Russia it may be assumed that her
finances will be conformed to the gold
standard.
If we turn from the far orient to our
own hemisphere, we will perceive a
stirring i'll the Central and South Amer
lean states to reform their monetary
system and escape the losses entailed
by an inferior and deprecated currency.
A dispatch few days since from Lima
informed us that Peru had not only sus-
pended silver coinage but had passed a
law against the importation of silver.
Columbia has adopted the gold stand
ard, while Chill, Uruguay and Brazil
make gold unlimited legal tender and
silver in but limited sums. In Hon
duras. San Salvador, Costa Rica and
Santo Domingo the gold standard has
been established by law, though de-
preciated paper currency prevents the
circulation of gold at present. These
movements go to show that those ma
tions who are in touch with European
trade and commerce feel the necessity
of having the same monetary system
and that their people are at disadvan-
tage because of their huctuating and
deprecated home currences.
And yet while these nations, admit
tedly our interiors in wealth and in
physical and intellectual progress, are
struggling out of the bonds that hold
them back there are those among us
who would imperil our vast wealth and
commerce by plunging us down to the
silver standard. What must the nations
of the world think Of such leadership
and statesmanship?- Chicago Times

arrested as he was about to step on the
