British and American ConIx.

In the House Of Commons last night
Sir William Vernon Harcourt. as had
been expected, most vigorously attack
ed the export coal tax proposed by the
Chancellor Of the Exchequer- Sir VIII
liam denounced the measure as "bung-
ling said that it would plunge the coal
trade into condition Of chaos and
the tax would inevitably come out Of
the miners wages. since the foreigners
certainly would not pay it. He cites
the action Of italy, which already had
arranged 10 take American coal instead
of British coal
Replying, Sir Michael Hicks Beach
presented statistics to show that
American competition was not a thing
To be feared, and in making his expo-
sition either uncunsciously or purgoseIv
ignored q consideration or two which.
II Noted, might diminish the weight Of
his conclusions. He said:
Last year the price Of cur coal If -b. r,,r, -
export rose very much higher than the price OF
coal N the United St4tez but iu spite Of ff4r rr
export coal was 80 GD00s1 tons or ? 5,9 fs,y f.1s
more taSn the previous year. The United states
exports a little over 100000 tons II the
Iulted States could not compete when The price
O CTR coal vas very nigh. u would be absolutely
impossible for IT 10 compete when the price Of
our coal Was low
There are reasons why the United
States up tc nearly the present time
has been unable to compete extensively
for foreign markets for our Goals. Con
ditions Of inland transport, the pres
sure Of domestic demand upon output,
and the lack Of ocean carrying facili-
ties have long held back what men as
wise as the Chancellor Of the Ex-
chequer should have recognized as in
eVitable- But the state Of affairs illus

THE PRESIDENTS JOURNEY.

NEW ORLEANS. May 1.-The Presi-
dent has Journeyed from the National
Capital to the greatest Commercial city of
the South, and it is but slight exagEera-
ton TO say that his way has been between
walls of humanity. From all the country
round about :he people have hocksd to
the railroad track and watched with Won
dor and admiration the palatial train as
it sped by and strained their eyes TO catch
fieeting glimpse of the nations EN-
eCutivc.
In the larger cities and towns. where
stops have been made. vast multitudes
have assembled. and at crossroads little
knots Of cOUntrymcn have gathered and
Checrcd as the train few past them at
forty miles an hour Some tens of thou
sands have heard the Presidents voice,
and many thousands more have seen him.
1t may be said that this great outpour-
ing of citizens is prompted by curiosity.
for II IS true that the President of the
United States and the members Of his
Cabinet do not pass this way every day
or every year Grant that this assertion
may be true it does not account for the
vociferOUs cheers, the demonstrations Of
enthusiasm as manifested in the waving
of flags, hats, handkerchiefs. and ban
ners. the gala day decorations. and the
general sentiments and expressions of
cordial welcome with which GIr NcKin-
ley has been received everywhere en-
route
The most prominent characteristic of
these receptions has been that Mr.. Nc
kinIey has been hailed as the President
of the United States, of all the people of
the country without regard to political af-
hIiatton or sectional limitation It has
been everywhere and with everyone Mr..
Mckinley, the President of the Repub-
lie not Mr. Mckinley the Republican
President. From his standpoint political
y he has been passing through the enc
my's country. Twice have the majority
of voters of these five States Virginia.
Tennessee. Alabama, Mississippi, and
Louisiana, cast their ballots against
him, yet public questions which divide
mems opinions have been left for cam
paign discussion, and Ohio or Massachu-
setts or any other Northern State could
not have extended a more cordial greet
ing to the President than have these Com
n'onwealths of Dixie

Memphis is altogether a business city.
Only its women are moved by sentiment
It has cOld-Dlo0ded commerciaiism, a
certain chiIIiness which is ent.-ely unnat-
uraI to Southern cities 1t has no pict-
uresqueness to boast of, and so its citi-
Zens seek to impress the visitor first with
the fact that there are no vacant houses
or stores in the Bluff City, with the vast
amount Of cotton which its warehouses
store and ship away, and the great in
crease in population and business which
II has witnessed in the past decade They
take pride in telling that during the panic
of 1883 not bank in Memphis failed, and
that everybody has work and is prosper
GUS Upon other subjects they do not
grow enthusiastic easily. So when Presi-
dent Mckinley rode through the principal
thOroughfares of the city lined on either
side with probably more than 5000 people,
there was scarce a ripple Of applause or
q voice raised to cheer the President of
the United States The people stood with
solemn faces and looked The banners
across the streets waved a welcome but
the crowds remained silent The Presi-
dents talk during the afternoon at Court
Square about the Tennessee volunteers
evoked some applause, but it was more on
account of local pride than anything else
Il was not until he delivered his speech
at the banquet that he touched the chord
which brought forth a hearty response.
He talked of cotton markets, of railroad
building of trade with the Far East. in
short, of commercialisrn, and the guests
rose and shouted, took breath and shout-
