wool AND TOBACCO.
New Rates of Duty\On Both to Be Pre-
scented to the Senate.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-The advocates
in the Senate of the increase in the duty on
wool held O. meeting to-day and decided
on the following as the rates which they
will ask the committee to fix on wool:
First Class-In grease, unskirted, 10 cents
per pound; in grease, skirted, u cents
per pound; if washed, double these rates;
if secured treble
Second Class-In grease, unskirted. II
cents per pound; in grease skirted, Is cents;
if washed, double; if secured, treble.
Third Class-Worth not exceeding 6 cents
per pound, cents duty; worth over 8 cents
and not exceeding 10, 5 cents per pound;
worth over 10 cents per pound, cents; if
secured, treble
These rates are much higher than those
originally fixed by the Senate committee
and the wool men regard them as more adj
vantageous than those in the House bill
or than the Mckinley law There We're
present at the meeting dozen or fifteen
senators, representing all the states IN
which wool is an industry OF especial I'M
pOrtance. The near approach OF the wool
schedule in the Senates consideration of
the tariff bill caused the subject or the
wool duties to receive unusual attention 10
day The schedule was presented at the
meeting of the Republican members of the
finance committee tonight. For over three
hours the questions presented We're dis
cussed in conversational way, but no def
mite conclusions were reached. AmonsS the
senators present who asked for an increase
in the wool duties as proposed by the Sem
ate were Messrs. Mantle. Foraker Nc
Bride, Hanna and Warren. Senator Pen
rose in whose State are large manufac-
turers of wooden goods, also attended the
meeting 1t is probable that some comprO-
mise win be reached soon, but the question
of Just what rates will be finally recon-
mended is still open.
The controversy over the duty on wrapper
tobacco. which has been in progress ever
since the tariff bal was taken up in the
Senate. was settled to-day so far as the
Republican members of the finance commit
tee could settle it, by agreeing on the rate
OF SIS per pound. This is a compromise
rate The growers of wrapper leaf wanted
a rate of s.. while the manufacturers asked
th9t the rate should not exceed $3.50 The
committee has held many meetings TO con-
slider the question: but as both sides We're
very persistent in pressing their claims
no decision was reached until to-day

Apropos of the proposed subscription for
the benefit of Mark Twain, the humorist
tells a story which would seem to say that
the appeals for contributions should not be
made too long or too hal rowing. A mission
airy once visited HARTFORD and made long
and pathetic appeal for funds wherewith
to relieve misery and distress in the slums
where he was working. After listening to
the agonizing story of suffering, Mark
Twain said to himself: For Gods sake,
send that plate. around, so that can pour
my sympathy into it, I'll give these four
800 bills and if l can get a piece of paper
III write a check for something more. 1
can very well spare little money for
cause Ike that" But the lecturer went
on talking, and as he talked Twains en-
thusiasm Gained, and the red flush of his
sympathy became paler. And when the
missionary had been talking about half
an hour | had saved one of those bills, and
when he had been talking five minutes more
two of those bills were mine again, and
when he had been talking an hour 1 had
all four back, and, by gosh, when he
finally did send the plate round L borrowed
10 cents out of IL TO pay my fare home"
