FACTS FOR Tfco Daly on Stool Rails and Their Imports. American Manufacturer. In an article in which The Nation charges, the minority of the Ways and' Mean. Committee with all sorts of moral turpitude occurs the following concerning the report: A report which carries In It such a manifest falsehood aa Is open to suspicion at every point. Consequently, we cannot be surprised to read a paragraph like the following "It the majority desire to insure the handing over otour steel rail market, to our English rivals, the proposed duty o( will accomplish this purpose, unless the worklngmen who are employed In producing the raw materials and finished products ot our steel rail works are willing to accept still lower wages than they are now receiving, and the railroad companies which trans pore tue raw materials ore wining to greatly re duce tneir rreignt rates, uave ine majoric assurance that the worktaarmen and the ri companies are willing to accept these conditions i Neither were heard before the committee." What are the facts here I Simply these, that American steel rail mills are now making contracts at 131 60 per ton, without any change in the tariff that the English price for rails, la ISO Won the furnace' bantc, ana that if the duty were reduced to 111 per ton, not a rail could be Imported, because the freight charge would still amount to an absolute prohibition.

Add til to ISO 60 and we have exactly the price at which steel rails are now turned out by the thousands of tone in Western Penhsylv.anla.,' The "you're another" argument is never a very profound one and yet the temptation to use it in this cose, is too great to be The argument of Tlie Nation is that because $20 50, the English price of rails, as it asserts, added to $11, the proposed duty, makes $31' 50, 'the price at which American mills are selling rails, that therefore "not a rail could be imported because the freight charges would still amount to an absolute prohibition." Will this wise arithmetician inform us how with steel ruils selling at an average of less than $35 last year, with the English price not more than $20 50 and the duty $17, making a total coot and duty of $37 50, at least $3 50 more than the duty, without counting insurance and freight, which was at least $2 50 more, 137,588 tons of rails were imported into this country last year 1 According to The Nation's theory, no rails could have been imported last year. The facts are 137,588 tons were brought in. But the theory must be right, and therefore so much tho worse for the facts." Racket In the Jail. Matt Callahan, John Lundy and John Shanahan, three burly, roughs employed as tone cutters on the Fourth street overhead bridge, were arrested for cruelly beating a colored man. Mayor Fritchey sent them to Jail for thirty days.

1 They 'were all put in one cell. Presently they became disorderly and demanded to be left out, threatening dire vengeance upon Warden Mo.er if he refused to liberate them. Then they broke to pieces the bed in the cell, snapped off the water pigot and thus flooded the cell, and tore out a lot of bricks from the wall with which they battered the outer wooden door, and smashed the glass in the window overlooking the jail yard. A squad of. policemen were summoned and the disorderly trio were shackled and removed to another cell.

They will likely get a longer time for their fun. This morning Warden Moyer brought a charge of breaking jail against the three worthies and they were held for court. The Interior of the cell was badly wrecked. i J. Bled In St.

A. To night. The gymnasium committee of the Young Men's Christian Association will, give an entertainment this evening. 'Ail interesting programme will be rendered. The Rao; If you cannot afford Axminster carpets and Persian rugs, have rag carpet.

The only thing that kills a rag carpet is its cheapness. If it cost $5 a yard, it would be on the floor, of every bondholder in the land. There is something about a rag carpet that suggests home. It is not so cold and formal to. the eye as the handsomely flowered Brusrels that you see in a parlor.

As soon as you put your foot on a rag carpet, you feel on good terms with the household and you naturally expect to hear a kettle sing, see some friendly cat arch her back and rub socially against your shins. And the man that owns a rag carpet made of articles collected about the house can sit right down with the carpet and talk to it. It is fall of the pleasantest reminiscences. He 'can see in the carpet pieces of all the clothing he has worn during the past ten or twenty years. All his cast off wearing apparel is in the carpet, except what is in the crazy quilt Overcoats, suspenders, felt hats, neck ties, gloves and overshoes, glow before him in red, white and blue sea that would set a statue peddler, crazy with delight.

The past comes back to him' through the medium of his metamorphosed clothing. Every strip has some association connected with it. There is the soft hat that his hair used to grow 'through the top of when he was a boy. There is the overcoat that never had a whole lining in the sleeve; there are the tops of slippers his best girl worked him gold dasies on a red ground; and there are his wedding snspenders. He can never forget those suspenders they saw much more active service than.

General Grant How many times had he made a bntton hole in them with his knife! And when one got too weak to be worn longer, he kept himself together with a solitaire, and converted the other into a razor strop. And when they had both served two or three terms as razor strops, they were put into the rag carpet, where they loom up like two white doves against the background of black velvet, and after all the other pieces in the carpet have lost their color and character, the suspenders will be as tough as railroad sponge cake and ready to be cut into gate hinges. There are fewer sparrows now to bother New Yorkers than there were last spring.

A New Breed Golden Wyandotte Fowls. American Agriculturist lor Hay. One of the most attractive novelties in recent exhibitions of poultry were the Golden Wyandottes. In all points except color they are similar to the older and well known varieties 'of Wyandottes, but are heavier, more hardy, and matnre earlier. The color of the male, on breast and wings, is a deep rich golden bay, laced with black, and the hen is a deep gold color, laced with black.

There is little penciling in the center of the feathers, and clear, bright hackles. Their general appearance is striking and beautiful. The variety originated a few years ago, aud rapidly found favor among fanciers. Last autumn 'n "Golden Wyandotte Club" was formed, with a view of promoting the pure anu umi.urm urecumg 01 una new variety. At the recent meeting of the American Poultry Association it was voted to admit the Golden Wyandottes to the standard.

They are therefore entitled to a class in all poultry exhibitions, and are likely to become one of the leading classes of standard poultry throughout the country.

Telegraph: The above would properly have designated the article in Saturday's Telegraph, signed Prohibition, since the whole trend of the argument was to show that third party temperance men think their method of solving the question is the only right method.

For one I plead guilty to the "soft impeachment If I thought Mr. Prohibition's non partisan constitutional amendment plan was better, I would adopt it If he thought Our plan superior to his he would adopt ours, no doubt, for I assume that he is a conscientious foe to the rum traffic Hence his temperance sainthood, his own estimation, is not less pronounced than ours. He, in the very nature of the cose, is intolerant of. our intolerance. It comes.

from what Titcomb calls "the love of what is ours." i Now, Mr. 4 may "not. 'the superlative clannishness of the third party people be traced to natural causes; the result of resistance to what they regard unfair treatment In 1884 their nominee for the Presidency was burned and hanged in effigy; was shot at through a car window; was. traduced as a bribe taker, till a thousand dollars was offered as a reward for. convict him of ever having by intimation even negotiated for a bribe, and that offer is a standing one to day, with no takers.

Many of those who exercised what lought to be the unchallenged right of a qualified elector, and voted for this nominee, were boycotted in business by those who differed with them; their motives traduced and their loyalty till per force of necessity they have been driven into what some consider an attitude of aggressive and relentless defiance toward the rum power, and all who apologize for or in any way tolerate its crimes. They are evidently where they are, to stay till, this liquor traffic enrse is abated or they die in the effort That they need to be guarded lest they fail to co operate in every legitimate way with others as conscientious as 1 themselves who are laborine for the same i end; we admit, but they' differ from some others in that without fear or favor they' have enlisted for the They naturally ask, what can we expect from the politicians of the old parties, since not ten of them in the State of Pennsylvania are willing over their Own signatures in any pending campaign to say, "I am in favor of prohibiting the liquor traffic.

THE BATTLE FOR OCR INDUSTRIES. Groat TarlBTMevtlas; In Philadelphia' Uood Speeches. The great tariff demonstration, at the Academy of Music, Philadelphia, on Saturday night nnder the auspices of the Manu facturers' Club, was successful far beyond tne expectations ot those who organized it The immense building was thronged with workingmen and capitalists, employes and employers, merchants, professional men and latorers, and all manifested the keenest in terest in the discussion of the greatest social topic of the day.

It has been many years since the Academy held such a distinguished auaience. Aiercnants, macnlactnrera, me chanics, tradesmen, sat about on all aides applauding at every hit made by the eloquent speakers. Few politicians were present After the meeting was organized a aeries of resolutions denouncing the Mills tariff reduction bill, and protesting against its en actment' was adopted. The protest will be presented to uongress at an early day. The first speaker was ex Governor.

Long, of Massachusetts, who delivered Tinging address, in tne course ot which he referred to the secret action of the Mills committee and the resnlt of that action, the Mills bilL the failure of which he predicted. He paid attention to the stupidity and fallacies of the President's message, his telling points evok ing treqnent applause. Ex Governor Long was followed by Con gressman McrUnley, of Ohio, who defined the result of the adoption of the Mills bill in the following language: "If a' body of of the United States were engaged to day in preparing a scale of wages which should reduce the wages, of the American workman from twenty five to forty per cent there would be the greatest movement among the working people ot this country irora one end to the other ever witnessed in onr history, It would extend from Maine! to California. There would be a strike that would paralyze every industry of our country, and yet to day, my fellow citizens, the statesmen at Washington are preparing a scale of Ameri can wages to reduce them from twenty five to fifty per cent That is what the Mills bill means, if it means anything." Mr. MoKin ley's speech was an able exposition of the question, and when he closed with a refer ence to Maine's favorite son the Academy rang with shouts of "Blaine "Blaine I and great applause.

Jndge Kelley, the veteran statesman and defender of American industries, closed the speech making with one of his admirable ad dresses, in the course of which he depicted the dangers of national bankruptcy which threaten as a resnlt of the adoption of the Mills bilL and cited the experience of the past in establishing his position. He said among other things: "I an no Cassandra and would excite no idle fear. I tell you you are in danger, and the free institutions of the country are in peril. One pretext for this action is that we must so cheapen onr products that we can find foreign markets lor them. How shall we cheapen tbem Lei your wages Very welL Let them go.

Where are your laboring classes Yon cannot destroy one class of American citizens without all feeling it Solidarity of in terest and Interdependence of trade are all important' When one class says "Let the sugar grower go, "the sugar grower has a right to say "Let the wool grower go," and both of them to say "Let the woolen and cot ton manufacturers, who have destroyed us. c9 further than we want to go, and to a warmer climate.
