Free Trade In Coal.

AT last there is decisive action
by Congress on the coal question,
and on the line always advocated
by the Democratic party. The bill
reported by the ways and means
committee, OF which Dalzell, Gros-
venor, Payne and other Republi-
cans are controlling members, was
passed by the House, and even
more promptly and without dis
senting voice by the Senate. 1t
provides for rebate of all tariff du-
ties on coal for a period of one year.
This covers the duty on anthracite
as we'll as the more important tar
itf rate on bituminous coal. In the
Senate an amendment was offered
so as to keep anthracite free, or at
least to prevent continuing that
construction of the Dingley sched-
ule by which it is now taxed.
This will relieve New England
by permitting the free importation
of Nova Scotia bituminous coal,
and will at once reduce the price OF
coal from that country, which is
the main source of supply from
foreign lands. AS the repeal OF
the tariff on bituminous coal in all
likelihood will be followed by the
repeal of the Canadian duty of 40
cents ton on American bitumin.
Gus, the change will be of great
Importance and advantage to the
coal interests of Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana, where large
shipments to Canada, even under
this tariff duty, will be largely in
creased by reciprocal free trade in
coal.
The important feature of this
bill, establishing free trade in coal
is that it is an admission from q
high Republican source that there
is close connection between the
coal famine and the tariff. True
the bill is limited in it's operation

REBATE ON FOREIGN COAL
Bill Passes Both Houses of Con-
gress In a Jiffy.
GAINES, OF WEST VIRGINIA,
VOTES AGAINST THE
BILL.

Washington, Jan.-The bill re-
ported from the ways and means
committee yesterday to provide for
the rebate of duties on foreign coal
for year was passed in short or
der by the house today, by vote
of 25S to 8, those voting against it
being Cushman and Jones of
Washington; Gsines, of West Vir.
ginia; Mondell of Wyoming, and
Patterson of Pennsylvania, all Re.
publicans. The bill was consider
ed under the operation of a rule,
which cut off all opportunity to
amend. The only opposition to
the measure came from some of the
members representing coal states,
who expressed fear that the adj.
mission of Chinese mined coal in
Canada would injure the coal in.
dustry of their states. Both Dal-
zell of Pennsylvania and Payne of
New York, the Republican leaders.
expressed the opinion that the bill
would not relieve the existing dis
tress. They said it would satisfy,
however, the public demand for
action and show a disposition of
congress to do what it could.
Democrats, although they all sup
ported the bill, took the view that
1t did not go far enough, saying
coal should go on the free list and
when the bill came back from the
senate with provision, which, vir-
tually placed the anthracite coal
on the free list, they applauded
vigorously. The senate amend
ment was adopted without division.
Rapid progress was made with the
army appropriation bill after the
coal bill had been passed. Anum
Der OF amendments were adopted
The senate acted promptly on
the house bill providing for rebates
OF the duty on foreign coal and
pissed it unanimously without de-
bate, few minutes after it was
brought over from the house The
militia bill was also passed, with
an amendment striking out of the
bill the section providing for a re-
serve force of trained mon, thus
removing the objections made
against it
For an hour and half, Senator
Tillman occupied the senote in
characteristic speech in which he
denounced trusts and monopolies
and severely criticised the attorney
general. The statehood bill was
up for a short time, during which
Senator McCumber spoke in favor
OF granting statehood to Oklahoma,
Arizona and New Mexico.

Condemns the Punch Bowl.


The Rev. DIR Louis. Albert
Banks, in the prelude to his SER
mon December 81 in Grace M. E
church, New York, discussed "The
Christmas Punch Bowl" He said
in part:
"If there be anything more in
consistent than another, it is a
woman of beauty and charming
and gracious manner who. under
the guidance of the sacred name of
hospitality, presses upon a tempted
man to drink what is his damna-
ton. Many a young man, as well
as an older one, who has been
proof against the temptations of
men, has fallen before the cup held
by the hand of the woman he adj.
mired or loved. The beauty and
and charm of womankind should
lead men upward and not down.
ward. And whsn beautiful woman
sets herself in alliance with the
dangerous punchbowl, to tempt
men on the path of ruin, it is the
saddest sight on earth"
