TO PUSH THE BROOKLYN TUNNEL.
T. NJ SHEPARD EXPECTS THAT 1T WILL BE
READY WHEN THE OPERATION OF THE
MANHATTAN TUNNEL IS BEGUN

Edward NJ Shepard. counsel for the Rapid
Transit Commission said yesterday:
We expect TO have the Brooklyn tunnel in opera
ton the time that the operation Of the
Manhattan tunnel is begun. We will proceed
get the consent of property owners. We
will try get the Appellate Division to hold spe-
cia sessions in order TO facilitate the work. I'VE
hope to have the contract let by October /.
Regarding the Esler franchise Mr.. Shepard said:
1 have made examination of the charter giving
Esler the right to build p tunnel to Brooklyn.
Whatever rights he may have not exclusive.
No exclusive rights to build a tunnel have been
granted to any one. We shall rejoice TO have him
build another tunnel in addition to the the city
Will build especially since his tunnel will be built
by private capital II strange that Esler
should have waited so long to do anything this
tunnel and particularly that he should have waited
until the Municipal Assembly had approved the
Rapid Transit Commissions tunnel plan.

THEY BEGIN TO SEE 1T.

The London Iron and Coal Trades
Review says that when the iron and
steel industries of the United Kingdom
begin to give way, as they are doing at
present, it is not unreasonable to as
sumo that the whole industrial fabric
is more or less on the eve of serious
change. This, it says, appears to be the
general expectation in Great Britain
at the present time. When an Ameri-
can writer a couple of years ago d.
rected attention to the imminence Of
an industrial change such as that now
generally expected, the London Spec
tator and Their British free trade
journals pooh-poohed the suggestion.
They WE'RE unable to perceive, what
this trade journal clearly sees, that
the iron and steel industries "are the
basis of all the other mechanical in
dustries-of shipbuilding, general en-
cheering, foundry operations, and a
thousand minor industries that may
be named" When basic industry is
in Jeopardy all those resting upon 1t
are sure to suffer, fact which the
optimistic free traders will be sure to
appreciate before long. although they
are unable to do SO now.-San Fran
cisco Chronicle.

SENAToRSHIP BY TELEGRAPH.

It is doubtful whether to any Ameri-
can statesman has come finer Christ
mas gift than that received by Senator
Warren of Wyoming in the shape of a
telegram announcing the pledges of Sc
out of IS Republican members OF the
legislature to support him for re-elec-
ton at the current session. This is
conclusive, as the Republicans control
the legislature. Not altogether a sur
prlse-for it would naturally be re-
garded as a matter Of course-it was
none the less a most fiattering presen-
tation, this senatorship by telegraph.
Wyoming, which was formerly Bryan
state, but is now safely Republican. is
to be congratulated. So is the whole
country. Senator Warren is in all
ways one OF the big men OF the upper
house-ibig in stature. in brain. in fine
personal qualities. and in usefulness
to his state and to the nation.

THE DUTY ON HIDES.
HOW 1T AFFECTS SHOE MEN
AND CATTLE RAISERS.
Come Conflicting Views-Duty Should
Not BE Removcd-Aids the Country's
Internal and Export Trade-Both Sides
In the Controversy Heard.

The fact that there are two sides to
tvery question has seldom been more
clearly illustrated than in the argu-
ment for and against the removal OF
the duty on hides. Here we have the
shoe manufactures of New England
strenuously contending for non-duti-
able hides as an absolute necessity in
the manufacturing interest. Speaking
for this interest the Boston CONNER
cial Bulletin. in an article entitled
THE Hide Duty Must Co." says:
"A few years ago it did not matter
so much whether there was duty on
hides or not, as foreign producers
were making shoes by old methods and
therefore could not produce a shoe
with the style of the American article
at price low enough to keep our
shoes out of their markets. Now, how
ever, the situation has changed. For
eign manufacturers have visited our
factories and seen the results obtained
with up-to-date American machinery.
This has caused them to fit out their
factories with our machinery, and they
have even gone so far as to engage
American workmen to teach their own
the proper way to obtain the best re-
suits. All this has pointed more
strongly than ever to the fact that the
duty on hides must be taken off if our
export trade is to be given chance
to grow.
ION all hides imported this duty is
Is per cent. Now when this was impos-

pecial benefit, and once the gates were
opened for such changes. there wou'u
be no stopping"
The Dingley tariff law was framed
for the benefit of all citizens and IN
dustries, and not to aid any one at the
expense of others. 1t has benehteu
the shoe manufactures, without I'M
posing any hardship upon them, ana
their business has increased beyond
the fondest hopes of the most optimis-
tic. II has also been of inestimaDle
benefit to other manufactures and the
farmers. stock raisers and laborers OF
the entire country, and there Is no
reason for changing 1t, beyond the SCI
fish desires of selfish men, who would
be satisfied to reap personal advan-
tages, even at the direct expense OF
their fellow citizens.
AS between the rival contentious or
those who produce the hides and those
who make them up into shoes ana
boots, perhaps the safest and fairest
arbiters would be those who buy and
use the manufactured product 1t does
not appear that the great body of do
nestle consumers are worrying much
about the duty on hides. They keep
right on wearing the best made, best
fitting, best looking and lowest-priced
footgear to be found anywhere in the
best consumers the manufacturers
could find il he searched through all
creation. Neither is the domestic
consumer of the American shoe pro-
duct very greatly grieved over the fact
that the export price is trife lower
than the domestic price. 1t is the hav-
ing of the price in his pocket, rather
than the price of the thing itself, that
chiefly concerns him. 1t was when ne
didn't have the price, no matter how
cheap 1t was, that he made trouble.
But that dismal time ended when tho

ed the leather manufacturer was
protected. After the hide has been
made into leather the dealer can ship
it to foreign countries and rebate
of Is per cent is allowed him by the
government. This makes it possible
for the foreign shoe manufacturer TO
buy our leather from 5 to 10 per cent
cheaper than the manufacturers in this
country can buy it. Now when our
producer is obliged to pay from b 10
10 per cent more for leather manufac-
tured in this country than foreign
buyer has to pay for the same leather
it is certainly high time that some
thing was done by congress to remedy
such a state of affairs, and the only
step that can be taken is to strike from
the tariff list this unfair duty.
"a protective tariff is a good thing
in many ways, but when this protec-
ton dscriminates against American
industries, as it has in this case, the
commodity in question should be placed
on the free list
1.-THE only people benefited by this
duty are a half dozen western MIL
lionaires, and those affected are not
only the manufacturers but the entire
public as well. The cattle growers OF
this country are not benefited by this
duty, as they sell their cattle on the
hoof and therefore do not handle
hides. While our exports OF shoes
amounted to about 100000 last year.
it is possible, with the duty removed,
TO increase this amount tenfold. but it
can never be done with the duty In
| force"
This would seem to be conclusive as
to the propriety of placing hides on
the free list, provided all the conten-
lions were to pass undisputed. SUCH,
however. is not the case. There is an
other point of view from which the
question bears totally different as
pect. Concurrently with the plea OF
the Commercial Bulletin, comes Wig
orous showing by the Helena, Mont,
Record, on the other side OF the ques-
ton. The Montana editor. speaking In
behalf of the men who raise cattle.
| finds ample ground for the claim that
the tariff on hides should not be taken
of; certainly not, II the tariff on shoes
Is to remain on. The Montana man
says:
"Just why the reduction OF the duty
on hides would increase the export
business is not clear. when the pro-
visions Of the present tariff allows
drawbacks on all articles on which
duty is paid, when again exported. The
drawback in the case of shoes is 80 per
cent of the duty paid on the imported
hides.
"The duty has been Of great benefit
to the farmers and stock raisers Of the
country, in spite of the denials Of the
shoe manufacturers. who claim the
packers have reaped all the benefits.
The fact that the prices of cattle have
increased. beginning Immediately upon
the adoption OF the tariff, confirms this
statement
NO doubt there are others besides
the shoe manufacturers who would like
the tariff law manipulated for their es-
