Many BIeyeIes Made In BIrmIngham.

WASHINGTON. oct. 21.-Consul
Barker at Birmingham. England. in his
annual report to the state department
says that the one marked development
in that district during the year has been
the cycle trade. 1t has been so great
that there has been a large overpro-
duction. The trade with the United
States has not been greatly affected.
because no complete bicycles have been
sent to the United States since 1894.
The British foreign trade in bicycles
amounted in 1895 to S6.747,O ,O12, in 1896 to
81, O56 42O and in 1897 (estimated) S7,S77, q
275. SO many men have been drawn
into bicycle making that other branches
have been injured.

REPUBLICAN,
SENATORS! F.!
Hold Another Caucus to Discuss Tariff
Schedules.
FINANCE COMMITTEE SUSTAINED
In Placing a Duty on HIDES, Despite West
ern Senators Objections Com
mittee Also Sustained in the
Rate Fixed on Wrapper
Tobacco.

Washington, June 25.-The Republi-
can senators decided i'm caucus last
night, by a vote of % to H. to sustain
the action of the finance committee in
placing a duty upon hides. but did not
pass upon the question of the amount
Of duty to be imposed The com
mittee was also sustained in the rate
fixed upon imported wrapper tobacco.
The only other disputed questions con-
sidered were watches and watch jew
els, and upon these the finance com
mittee was reversed, the house rates
being accepted on watches, and watch
jewels being made free.
The caucus was held I'm the marble
room of the senate and was well at
tended. While the discussion was spir-
tied at times the meeting was without
especial incident. The greater part of
the time was given to the proposition
to fix a duty on hides. Senator Lodge
led the contest against the action of
the finance committee in taking hides
frc'n the free list, and was seconded
by Senators Hoar, Platt, Spooner and
others, while Senators Nelson, Allison,
Warren and Gear spoke for the duty.
Mr. Lodge contended that the duty,
if imposed would not be of any con-
sequence as a revenue item, and that
it would add nothing to the farmers
returns on his cattle, while It would
have the effect of greatly injuring the
industry of leather manufacture which
had grown to immense proportions un-
der the system of free hides. He said
that the exports of leather goods
amounted to $20C0oO0O per annum, and
asserted that If a stiff duty should be
imposed the industry would be greatly
checked
In reply the western senators claimed
a direct benefit to the farmer from the
duty, and asserted that he was as
much entitled to the protection 1t would
give as were the manufacturers to the
assistance they would receive from
other duties.
The vote was on the general propo-
sition to impose a duty without regard
to rates. The fixing of these, it was un-
derstood, should be left to the finance
committee, but the expressions were so
general in favor of the ad valorem
rather than the specific system that
the committee probably will feel It.
self instructed to substitute this sys-
tenn for the y cent pound rate origi-
nally agreed upon. There was also a
general expression against any in
crease upon India tanned goat and
sheepskins which the manufacturers
regard as a substantial victory.
The debate on the tobacco schedule
was confined to brief speeches by
Senators Hawley and Fairbanks. The
finance committee had originally fixed
the rate ON unsteamed wrapper to-
bacco at $3.50 per pound, in opposition
