Overcomc's RyHn's Science in the
Tenth Round.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 1.-Gus Ruhling
the giant heavyweight of Akron, o.. de-
feated Tut Ryan of Australia tonight at
the Tulane Athletic club in ten-round
fight, John Duffy being the referee. Ruhling
was the taller and heavier weighing about
1870 pounds. Ryan tipped the beam at l75
pounds and, like his opponent, was in the
best of condition
kuhling at the outset was awkward and
Ryan in point of ceverness showed Consid-
cradle superiority. The Australian, realz-
ing his disadvantage, fought for the body
and in the first eight rounds landed with
plenty OF force. For a time this weakened
Ruhling, but he gained courage and finally
became stronger and captured the day His
blows in the last two rounds were hard and
Ryan was groggy. and could hardly have
stood the terrible raids a round longer

senator referred to the manner in which
the Maine delegation-the ablest one
in congress-had succeeded for years
in keeping spruce on the dutiable list.
1t was a credit to their capacity, which
they displayed in all directions, secur-
ing among other things more public
buildings than any other state.
Mr.. Vest declared that the proposed
rate on white pine was Sin the interest
Of the lumber barons, who have ac-
cumulatsd millions upon millions at
the expense of the people" AS evidence
of this, the senator read a letter from
Michigan giving the names of ''Michi-
gan pine kings" In fervid tones Mr
Vest referred to this added burden on
the poor, to whom every penny was al
most dollar, and every dollar almost
drop of blood It was, he said, the
most indefensible item of the bill; with
out justification or palliation.
Mr.. Jones (Ark.) warned his Southern
associates against the argument that
the lumber interests of the South would
be benefited by the exclusion of Cana
dian lumber. He read a letter from an
American lumberman on the border
saying the result Of the rates would
be to compel the Canadians to reduce
the price of their lumber, and it event
ually would come into the United
States cheaper than at present

Several persons in the dense crowd
hooted the emperor, which was instant
ly answered by the police forcibly dis
persing the throng and arresting a
score of people. The empress was pale
and nervous and was so affected by all
this that she suffered from violent
headache and insisted upon returning
to the castle. the emperor therefore
stopping the parade before it was half
finished.
In the jostle on leaving the Tempel-
hof the empress was again badly
scared. Women of the lower classes
suddenly appeared at her horses head
and with threatening gesture one of
the women threw petition in the face
of the empress. In the turmoil which
ensued her majesty lost a unique
decoration, which was conferred upon
her by Queen Victoria and contained
the queens enamel portrait set with
big diamonds
The empress was present at the
parade on horseback in white riding

Across her breat she wore the broad

He also spoke in favor of a revenue
tariff so adjusted as to give equal bene-
fits to all industries. Mr. Bacon and
Mr.. Vest clashed several times on tariff
doctrine, Mr.. Vest expressing his re-
gret that a Democratic senator would
aid in restoring to the dutiable list one
of the three products-lumber, salt and
wool-which the Wilson bill put on the
free list. Mr.. Clay (Ga.) also spoke at
length on the tariff bill, criticising the
sugar schedule and other features of
the bill
When the next paragraph, sawed
boards, plaDks, deals, ETC., was reached
Mr.. Vest said he would later move to
place the articles of this paragraph and
those Of the previous one on the free
list Mr.. Allison then perfected the
proviso relating to the addition of the
export duty upon logs coming from
countries paying an export duty, so
that the proviso will also apply to
boom sticks and chains used in tow
ing logs" This amendment was agreed
to.
Mr.. Jones (Ark.) spoke against an ad-
ditional tax on lumber, referring to
the heavy burden it imposed on the
people of the West. He said the rates
on the bill were the result of a de-
termined and systematic effort by the
lumbermen, and in this connection he
read a letter from the national lum-
Der convention, issued from an office in
The Saint Paul globe., 1897-06-06

cally administered government. He de-
nounced the senate bill sugar schedule
as increasing the cost of sugar $1.2O
per hundred to the consumer for the
benefit of the trust-the scandal of the
nation. He also attacked the tea
tax and said the senate bill would in
crease taxation $92 600, 900 on sugar, tea,
wool and beer, while the farming In
terests We're neglected. The financial
and not the tariff question was the
issue Of the last campaign.
Mr.. Hale (Rep., Maine) having OBJ
Jected to the request of Pettigrew (S
d. to let the Vest amendment omit
ting white pine go over, Mr.. Pettigrew
def1antly asserted that the proposition
would be discussed all next week. and
made an attack upon the 81 rate on
white pine. as in the interest of a
corner Of millionaires. He said he did
not expect reelection by the Republi-
cans, who would not have $4,000 votes
in South Dakota next year if this pine
duty stood. Later on the request of
Allen Pop., Neb.) the paragraph went
over
To paragraph 1914, paving posts, rail-

This concluded the wood schedule
and the bill was laid aside. The SEN

mot designed to bepefit any Southern
industry and that if there was any
thing OF the kind 1t was merely in
cidential.
Mr.. Vest moved an amendment ex-
cepting white pine from the operation
of the paragraph. Mr., Bacon Oem..
Ga.) expressed his differences with Mr..
Vest. The latter, he said, had pointed
out rates increased 1G0 per cent, while
in this schedule the average ad valorem
was below 20 per cent. That being the
case Mr.. Bacon asserted that Mr..
Vests statement that this was the
most unjustifable feature Of the bill
was not warranted.
II regard it as the most reasonable
feature of the whole bill,' declared Mr..
Bacon. II regard the schedule as
proper one irrespective Of the party
from which it comes" Mr.. Bacon went
on to state that he was not a protec-
ZIONIST. But the stern necessities of
the government required tariff and a
high tariff. He was not speaking for
a protective tariff, but he believed that
when it became necessary to impose
revenue duties, then it was essential to
make the rates uniform as far as prac-
ticable. If the Southern lumber inter-
estS asked him to support a rate simply
for the sake of protection, he would
not do it, but when they asked that
the revenue duties be in proportion to
the revenue duties on other articles he
regarded that just, and he would sup
port it. Less than 20 per cent was not
a protective duty, he asserted. In front
of his home ran trains freighted with
this industry would be struck down
Southern lumber to the Northwest, and
without this legitimate revenue tariff
He had received a telegram, he said,
saying that every man, woman and
child was looking to the success of the
lumber schedule.
Mr.. Bacon argued against the i'm
position of taxes on finished products
and not on raw material He fell into
colloquy with Mr.. Vest in the course
of which he contended that he had not
abandoned the Democratic principles Of
revenue duty, and equality of tax
alton, and pointed to Vests participa-
ton in framing the Wilson bill, which
led Mr.. Vest to decline responsib Fly
for measure framed under duress.
Mr.. Clay (Dem., Ga), in his maiden
speech in the senate, declared against
free trade and for an equal and suf-
ficient tariff, sufficient for an economi-
