with them. He felt hand in his pocket
and saw the Burke girl hand his wallet to
the other woman. When the women saw
they were caught they dropped the wallet
and ran in opposite directions
Sellinger stopped to pick his wallet up
and chased the Burke girl on southbound
Broadway car She turned on him and
knocked his hat over his ears, giving him
at the same time blow in the jaw. Then
she jumped off the moving car.

hanson was stopped by Policeman Baury;
The wallet, Sellinger says, contained
only private papers. His money was in
another pocket To the policeman who
made the arrest, Sellinger said he lived

featuring interests. Manufacturers
are generally not interested In an In
creased importation OF manufactured
articles, but are in an increase OF raw
ais. The he iresent. rate CT duties
on manufactured goods, that approx
mates prohibition, suits them very
well, but it tends to reduce revenues.
# they could have free raw material,
for which they have been asking, this
could also tend to reduce revenue in
two ways, by loss of duties on raw ma
terials and the added advantage 1t
would give home manufacturers over
foreign. The inevitable result would
be such a reduction of revenue that
the government would be compelled to
use the $3.50, 000,0 900 which it now has
loaned to banks.
What the banks want is an increase
OF revenue. It cannot be expected
that there will be any increase from
excise taxes. If there Is any at all,
1t must come from import duties. The
present rate of duties on manufac-
tured goods with free raw material
would destroy the import trade on ev-
erything except raw material. The
manufacturing interests will oppose
any reduction of duties on manufac-
tured goods. The only possible solu-
ton of this possible controversy, that
will in any measure give the manu-
facturers what they want and banks
an increase of revenue, is low duty
on raw material that would not re-
tard this kind Of importation. This,
however, would have to be aided by
transportation companies in the
manipulation of freight rates to and
from the interior, and would result In
the destruction of all home enter
Frises for the production of what are
called raw materials, and would be
death to the agricultural interests.
Neither party TO this possible contro-
versy will have any interest in the
consumer. No difference which NAV
have the advantage, the consumer
will be robbed. The controversy will,
no doubt, end as it always has ended.
in an adjustment of the two interests,
by which an agreement will be reached
concerning the method of the rob-
berry and the division of the spoils.
One side of this controversy has a
representative in the American Pro-
tective League of New York, the 9th
er side in the National Free Trade
League Of Boston, while the National

OF the great industrial and CONNER
C1al masses will have no protection,
unless they organize to protect them
selves. In these classes l include, of
course, multitude of country banks
that are trying honestly, and often
with difficulty, to do legitimate bust
ness as assistants to legitimate bust
ness enterprises. But the banker.
