Wesley Hollobaugh moved that the
report be adopted as whole. The
motion was seconded by another voice
in the aud ence. At this point the chair
man called for an expression of opinion
from the audience. The report, he
said. embraced some very important
points and he wanted it freely dis
cussed.
Councilman Amos Nastne assured the
meeting that so far as he was able he
would assist to carry out the suggestions
embodied in the report. NJ. ID. /.
Sechler declared that the plans propos-
ed were the very ones that were adyocat-
ed by himself ana others, but that they
could accomplish nothing in council.
The report was reread for the
benefit of late corners, when some re-
marks on the points embraced were
made by Charles Chalfant, Esq, David
d. Williams and George Reifsnyder.
The report was then voted on.
There was a chorus of yeas but not one
dissenting voice. The president decIar-
ed the report adopted as a whole.

Twice Proven.

From the Vindicator, Rutherfordtou, n. c.
The editor of the indicator bias
had occasion to test the efficacy of
Chamberlain's Pain Balm twice
with the most remarkable results
in each case. First, with rheuma-
tism in the shoulder from which he
suffered excruciating pain for ten
DAYS. which was relieved with two
applications of Pain Balm, rubbing
the parts afflicted and r~a'izing in
slant benefit and enJire relief in a
very short time. Second, in rheu-
matism in thigh jcint, almost pros
trAting him with severe pain, which
was relieved by two applications,
rubbing with the Eminent on retir-
ing at night, and getting up free

The creditors of Harry G. Berkey. the

He was in his office, 1872 Boston block,

that he was going to California on a

a public advertisement and competitive
bids, to the lowest bidder. This con-
tract calls for the expenditure of $1,000,
coo in the near future. Roads are being
constructed and the building of roads in
this tropical country is expensive. These
are but a few of the many items of ex-
penditure which are impera tive. All these
expenditures are preparing the way for
d reduction of the army and in the end
will prove of direct benefit to the tax
payers of the United States.
Taxes on Shipping.
The bill also provides for the collection
of tonnage taxes on vessels plying be
tween the ports OF the United States and
the Philippines archipelago. 1t further
provides that vessels not of United
States may ply between these ports, not
withstanding our coastwise navigation
laws, until the first day of January, 1905,
when it is believed these islands may
safely come under the operation of our
present statutes. and vessels only of the
United States be employed in our COM
merce with them.
At present our own people who ship
goods to these islands are handicapped
by the internal revnue tax and duties
paid upon foreign goods imported here
and used in the manufacture of articles
sent to the Philippines
1t is provided that all the duties and
taxes collected under the act shall not
be converted into the general fund of
the treasury of the United States, but
shall be paid into the treasury of the
Philippine islands to be used and ex-
pended for the use and benefit OF these
islands.
The object of the bill is to meet a
pressing emergency practically and eff
GENTLY. We present the tariff act of the
commission as the best that can be de-
vised in the limited time left for US to
act.
Not Original Payne Bill.
The tariff bill as finally reported to-
day is a substitute for the original Payne
bill, which, however, IL follows through
out except in a few minor particulars.
There is an additional proviso to section
6 that all articles subject under the laws
of the United States to internal revenue
tax, or on which the internal revenue
tax has been paid and which may under
existing laws and regulations be ex-
ported to foreign country without the
payment of such tax or with benefit of
drawback, as the case may be- may also
be shipped to the Philippine islands with
like privileges. Where imported materials
on which duties have been paid are used
in the manufacture of articles manufac-
tured or produced in the United States.
there shall be allowed on the shipment of
said articles to the Philippine archipelago
a drawback equal in amount to the du-
ties paid on the materials used, less /
per cent of such duties.

for the Philippines, and thus exercised
a greater power than most kings. Con-
tinuing, it says:
1.-THE second section in effect declares
that the Philippine islands are foreign
territory, to the extent that all impor-
tations therefrom into the United States
shall pay the same rates of duty as are
provided in the existing tariff laws of
the United States, known as the Ding
ley tariff act. The Dingley act has
proven itself to be a trust-breeding meas
ure We witness daily the great trusts,
born of the Dingley tariff law, SO manip-
ulating the manufactures and the. prices
of goods that our people are forced by
them to pay at our own homes and in
our own markets higher prices for their
manufactured goods and commodities
than the same goods and commodities
are manufactured by them and shipped
abroad and sold for in the foreign mar
kets of the world. We do not
believe that the trade we are now OBJ
tanning, or that we are likely to obtain,
under our operations in the Philippines,
is worth what We are paying for it.
The report then shows that the United
States shared in the Philippine trade last
year to the extent Of $5,427, sos, represent
ing profits to our government or people
of about $1,0S5,541
Heavy Cost in Money and Lives.
'sThis paltry sum- it says, sis insig-
nifcant when we consider the other side
of the account 1t has cost US more than
$S5, 100000 to maintain our army in the
Philippines for the past year. Other ma
. lions without mourning the expense of a
dollar toward that end are getting S4S,-
100000 worth of the Philippine trade. We
will have expended when the next year
closes at the very lowest estimate for the
maintenance of our army in the Philip
pines and our operations in the Orient
not less than $3.50 900, 600. And this does
not include the immense increase in
naval expenditures and the $4,000, 900 paid
to Spain under the treaty of 1897
The casualties both of the United States
troops and the insurgents are referred
to, and the report then concludes:
1.-THE casualties which have occurred
in the effort to enforce the policies of
the majority in the islands are of such
appalling magnitude that it should shock
the public mind And such a list of cas-
ualties would in noWise refer to or in
clude those of our soldiers whose health
has been permanently broken down, and
of many others whose reason and intel
lects have been shattered and ruined by
protracted service in torrid zone. We
are squarely in opposition to the meth
DDS and policies of the majority of the
committee in their efforts to deal with
the Philippine islands. We do not be-
Heve that the people of those islands
can be made citizens of our republic
without gross injustice to our people and
without doing violence and perhaps ire
parable injuries to our Institutions; nor
can we hold them as subjects without
the most radical changes in our form and
theory of government, which we are UNI
willing to see inauSuSated."

Tells OF Oyercharges That Were
Made When Children Were
Taken to Different
State Schools.

Testimony was resumed in the Megaar-
den case again yesterday. The ezamina-
ton was principally along the line of the
commitment and taking of children te
the different schools at Red Wing, Owa-
tOnna and Faribalt.
Probate officer Holt testified as to
+; the expense of such trips. In nearly all
cases where children had been taken to
these schools for the past three years,
covering the period over which the in
.vestigation extends, it appears that hotel
!, bill at the different towns, as well as
I hack hire at both ends of the route, was
fput into the. account of the sheriff. when
as matter of fact there was not hotel
bill to enter and never in any instance has
there been any hack hire at Minneapolis,
and only about half of the time was
| there any charge for hacks ut the other
end of the route.
/ Probate Officer Holt also swore as to
the amount he received from the sheriff
at variance with that which the sheriff
charged the county for the service.
1t will take a number OF days yet to
go through the entire list, as presented

Rminer Koerner

Not a Drop of CowardIy Blood in
SchIey's Veins.

INDIANAPOLIS, Indy Dec 19.-Rear
Admiral George Brown, retired. when
asked tonight for his opinion of the YER
dict in the SchIey case, said:
.'I read the original charges against
Admiral Schley, of course, and made up
my mind that no court would ever con-
Wet him of cowardice. They could not
do that The whole country knows he
is not a coward. There is not drop Of
ccwardly blood in his veins. If there
were he would never have become q
commodore and admiral in the navy Of
the United States.
.'I did think, moreover, that the court
would probably censure him for his retro
grade movement and his hardness in get
ting to Santiago. Cervera had time be-
fore the arrival of Schley to coal and get
away; but he did not, and Schley got
there in time and did the work. He
destroyed the f1eetSof Cervera. The re-
suits were exactly what were being aimed
at. He did what he started out to do.
Everyone knows that. Cervera did not
get away, and his fleet was destroyed at
Santiago.
both Admiral Schley and Admiral
Sampson are my warm friends, and l
have the highest regard for both of
them. They both served under me and
I esteem them in the highest manner.

around to Tillman, and said he had $40,
and would like to borrow $50, and would
for $3.50. Tillman parted with his $780,

check. Shortly afterwards the two part

the check later in the day. AS he failed
to keep his appointment Tillman became

Enough to Eat.

Enough to Eat.
Julius Sprague, an old man and blind
arrived at the Union station from Ash
land, Wis, last evening, and being with
out money and helpless, was taken to
police headquarters.
Sprague says that he was sent away
by his son. He had gone to the son
a few years ago from a daughter at
Oskaloosa, Iowa. He was then able to
see a little and could earn a little money.
But he says that after becoming totally
blind he was neglected, and would only
was anything left. When he decided to
return to the daughter the SON sold
some of the old mans clothes to pay his
transportation.
