REPUBLICAN TARIFF MAKERS
Another Day Spent Considering the
Iron and Steel Schedule.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10-The Re-
publican tariff makers spent another
day considering the schedule of manu-
factures of iron and steel. Nails and
cutlery We're the divisions of the sched-
ule which engaged their attention, but
no definite rates upon these articles
were fixed.
The committee decided tentatively to
put the rate on nails at about one
fourth of the Mckinley rates, and to
make it specific. Even the Wilson
rates on nails are, in the minds Of the
committee. practically prohibitive, and
a majority of the Republicans ex-
pressed the opinion that nails can be
made SO cheaply in the Eastern States
that no duty is necessary. The Pacific
Coast, however, on account of foreign
competition, seemed to need protection,
and the duty agreed upon will be for
the benefit of the coast.
No definite duties on cutlery were
discussed, but it was decided to make
a rectificatiOn of that division of the
schedule, and fix specific rates which
will be materially higher than the pres
ent ad valorem duties on cutlery.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10.-Another
complaint was filed to-day against But
Ter, alias Ashe, the alleged Australian
murderer by the British COnsul-Gener-
al J. w. Warburton, formally charging
him with the murder of Arthur Preston
in Australia, praying for warrant for
Buffers arrest and decree Of eXtradf-
ton after examination.
The new complaint was taken as an
exereme precautiOn against the result
of failure to make out case in the
present extradition proceedings before
United States Commissioner HeacOck.
1t is supposed that even if the accusa-
ton that Butler murdered Weller should
fall through, the second charge may be
capable of stronger proof. The Consul
General, however, has no reasonable
doubt that he can prove the pending
charges.
The examination on the second accu-
sation will begin when the pending eX-
animation is concluded, and even if the
decision of the Commissioner goes
against Butler, it viii be necessary to
hold the other examination. This Will
delay Buffers extradition.
Attorney PidweI. one Of Butler's
counsel, has filed a suit in replevin in
the Justices Court here to recover pos
session of Buffers effects. Pidwell
claims to be the owner under a bill of
sale from his client. The United States
Marshal is sued for the personal proper
ty. The police charge that by this action
Pidwell lays himself open to the ac-
cusation of being a purchaser of stolen
goods many of Buffers effects being
supposed to be the property of the muir
dered Captain Lee Weller.
The extradition proceedings in con-
nection with the Weller murder were re-
sumed this afternoon. The evidence Of
the British Government was not con-
cluded. however. and the indications
are that no decision will be reached be-
fore next week The documents upon
which the arrest of Butler had been Sc
cured We're introduced to show that all
legal requirements had been complied
with. The original of the advertisement
which drew Weller to his death was also
introduced, and the prosecution charged
that the handwriting was that of the
prisoner.

The Identification by the San Francisco

ACCIDENT TO A STEAMER.
The MaCkinaw Goes Ashore at Mar

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10.-The
Merchants Exchange had a dispatch
from Port Townsend stating that the
steamer Mackinaw, cOal-laden from
Tacoma for San Francisco, Went ashore
this morning at Marrowstone Point
The report states that the vessel is
making no water, and is in no immedi-
ate danger though the cargo win prob
ably have to be removed before she is

She was chartered by the Pacific I'M
provement Company to take the place
Of the San Benito when that vessel
was lost, and was on her way south
with a full cargo of coal.
The Mackinaw viii have to discharge
at least 400 tons of coal and perhaps
more before she can be hauled off. The
vessel is resting easily on a flat sandy
bottom.

not support him any longer.
Last night Senator Mitchell came to

would be forty-five in joint convention
and that l would make the forty-sixth
He told me that if did not come in and
make the forty-siXth the whole respon-
sibility for the situation would rest on
my shoulders"
Carter then spoke Of his anxious state
of mind during the night and the ordeal
he had passed through. He had come
here to make the forty-sixth man to-
day but said he: I find that there is
lie out somewhere. Either Senator
Mitchell misrepresented things to me. or
those Senators whom Senators Mitchell
said would come in have lied to him.
They have told me they did not tell
Senator Mitchell they would come to-
day. There is United States Senator
or a State Senator lied. Carter conclud-
ed by saying that he felt he had done
his duty by coming to-day.
When he had finished there was loud
