senting the consumption Of articles to
which decreases applied. to less than
ssoo.oo0,000 of articles OF necessity to
which the Increases applied.
Party Promises Fulfilled.
Now, the promise of the republican
platform was not to revise everything
downward, and in the speeches which
have been taken as Interpreting THAI
platform which I made in the cam
pa1gn did not promise that every
thing should go downward. What I
promised was that there would be
many decreases and in some few things
increases would be found to be neces-
sary. but on the whole conceived that
the change in conditions would make
the revision necessarily downward
and that condition has been the result
of the Payne bill. I do not agree, nor
did the republican party agree, that
we would reduce rates to such a point
as to reduce prices by the introduction
OF foreign competition. That is what
the free traders desire. That is what
the revenue tariff reformers desire, but
that is not what the republican plat
form promised and 1t is not what the
republican party wished to bring about
To repeat again with what I opened
this speech-the proposition of the re-
publican party was to reduce rates so
as to maintain difference between the
cost of production abroad and the cost
of production here insuring a reason

articles produced in this country and
the proposition to reduce rates and
prevent their being excessive was TO
avoid the opportunity for monopolies
and the suppression of competition so
that excessive rates could be taken adj
vSintageS of to force prices up.
Nov, it is stated that there was
not a reduction in a number OF the
schedules where they ought to be. 1t
is said that there was no reduction in
the cotton schedule. There was not.
The house and senate took evidence
and found from cotton manufacturers
and from other sources that the rates
upon the lower class of cotton were
such as to enable them to make a
decent profit, but only decent profit,
and they We're contented with it; but
that the rates on the higher grades of
cotton cloth, by reason of court decis-
ions had been reduced so that they
were considerably below those of the

that by NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and other
wise the whole cotton schedule had
been made unjust and the various
items were disproportionate in re-
spect to the varying classes. Hence in
the senate a new system was intro
duced attempting to make the duties
moro specific rather than ad valorem
in order to prevent by judicial decision
or otherwise q disproportionate and
unequal operation Of the schedule.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. 9.-Beauti-
full Teresa Villereal, called the
angel of Mexico by foes of Presi-
dent Diaz, lay for a month in a
dank prison at Torreon, where she
was locked up after being kidnapped
from the Texas border by ruffians
in the old tyrant's hire.
The amazing story of a woman's
sacrifice, recalling the martyrdom
of Joan of Arc, has been revealed
here since her persecution. AS a
result of popular cutlery, she was
freed later. For year the Villereal
family lived as fugitives in st.
Louis, where they maintained Sc
cret headquarters of the junta
which they hoped some day would
pull the tottering seat of power
from beneath the dictator of Mex.
leo.
The kidnapping of this young girl,
her subsequent persecution and her
release only under pressure, mean
only one thing to people who are
familiar with her ideals and her
life. 1t means that Diaz will never
stop at the sacredness of woman
hood or the integrity of any home
to insure firmer grip on the
throat of the stifled republic which
now is writhing under his mis-
rule.
Prospero Villereal was one of
the aristocrats of Mexico. Poems
fled to his broad acres, where he
treated all peacefully and kindly.
