With the army officers and the navy officers vlelng in gallantry and politeness the belles have a delightful time. A number of persons on their way from Florida have stopped at the Hygela and found it a hard place to leave.

Congressman William Walter Phelps, Mrs. Spooner, wife of Senator Spooner; Miss Vilas, daughter of tbe Postmaster General; Mayor Low and wife, of Brooklyn, and William H. Goodrich, editor of tbe Hartford Courant, ate all there. Among the recent arrivals from Philadelphia are Mr. and Mrs.

Gregg. FLORIDA AND ELSEWHERE. burglars who had that stupendous scheme brewing had been over ten years formulating their plans and Hope's conviction and imprisonment meant postponement if not abandonment. The circumstantial evidence against Hope related to the movements of several strange men who bad been seen in and about Dexter prior to and at the time of the killing of Barron. A strong effort was made to prove that Hope was one of these strangers, and in order that the witnesses might be properly cross examined it became necessary that secret revelation should bo made as to the actual identity of the robbers and the particulars of the robbery.

This was done and the story then told in secret is now revealed in public. It may be here remarked parenthetically that Inspector Byrnes is responsible for the public statement that when Jimmy Hope was in East Haddan Jail, prior to his trip taken to Maine, the authorities tried to ascertain from Hope who committed this double crime, as they were sure he knew. In this, however, they failed. Inspector Byrnes was right, as he generally is. Jimmy Hope did know, and yet he had no connection with the robbery.

CASHIER BARRON ARRANGED IT. The preponderance of testimony, apart from any resurrection of buried secrets, it must be admitted, supports the theory that tho robbery of the Doxter Bank wa3 prearranged by Cashier Barron. The assertion is no longer startling, because it is no longer new. But Cashier Barron did not tie, did not gagand did not kill himself. In tho last named phases of this singular MEABS.

Since tbe information of the death of tbe Emperor of Germany become general in tbls city a noted character of the retail business section of North Elghtb street and the markets on Spring Garden street bas gone into retlrementoutof respect and in mourning.

It is said, for the dead Kaiser. William Jacobs, or "Old Billy," as be Is more lamil larly known to tbe market men about Twelfth and Spring Garden streets, has left bis haunts for a few days and will not be seen again until after the funeral of Emperor Wilhelm, as be claims to be a second cousin to that illustrious monarch. His absence from tbo market yesterday morning was a matter of surprise to tbe mnrketmen, who aro as used to seeing "Old Billy" as they are to seeing the market itself, and but few or them kuewof the reason for his absence. Il finally leaked out, however, that Billy" was a relative of tbe Emperor's," and tbat the death of tbe latter was tbe cause of Billy's non appearance. Said a marketmun yesterday afternoon: "Old Billy is fully persuaded tbat tho Emperor of Germany was his second cousin, and that It is only right for bim to retire until after the funeral.

He will also go into mourning, at least as far as his meagre wardrobe will permit him to do so, and that will go on until something else lurns up to shako tbe universe, when he will again imagine himself directly Interested and will act accordingly. But until after the funeral he will not be seen about here." Jacobs Is a very eccentric old man. In appearance be Is of a slight, stooping figure; bis clothes, although most of the time a mass nf tatters, are always neat and clean. His huir aud beurd are very gray, ond his squeaking voice sends a thrill of almost horror through his listeners, as be persistently holds before them his little soug sheet, through the sale of which be manages to live from hand to moulb. Iu manner and speech he Is very listless until the subject of royalty is touched upon.

Then his eye brightens and his conversation becomes lu a moment animated, and be will discuss all Questions pertaining to tbe royal families of Europe with a cleverness that would astound a more educated student of royally than he. For years his figure has been a familiar one to the lady shoppers of this city. Ou al most any nne aay ne can ue Been siowiy natrolllnc In front of the larite retail stores on North Eighth street, where he sells a small sheet of doggerel song, which he claims is a biography ol himself. The Idea thai ne is a memner oi some royal lamuy is so sincere with nun mat ne win inatgnauuy resent any remark which may tend to make ugntoi tne matter. DEMOCRATS WANT A SHOW.

Movement to Get Minority Borough Representation at West Chester. SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE TIMES. West Chester, March 10. There is a sen timent prevailing bero relating to municipal politics which points to an effort being made at an early day lor the mixing up of politics in shaping the Board of Borough Government. The Republicans are so strongly entrenched here as to totally ignore all efforts of tbelr Democratic friends in running tbe borough machine and It is argued that while the law bas given the mi nority party some representation in county affairs the same principle ought to be ap plied to tbe government of cities and towns.

Ex Councilman N. T. Hayes, who claims to know whereof be speaks, bas appeared in public nrlnl over his signature, arguing in lavor or the proposed new deal on a more liberal basis, because, as he asserts, many of the heaviest tax payers and contributors to the borough fund are Democrats, and under the present close party order of tblngs are without any say whatever In conducting the affairs of the place. It the matter Is urged a lively fight is cer tain to ne tue outcome ana the nia Kepubit can regulars, such as Mayor McCauley, Congressman Darlington, Larry Eyre and Dr. Gatchell will present their protest in no uncertain manner.

THE HISTORY 0B' DEMOCRACY. An Eloquent Lecture to tbe Andrew Jackson Club. A large number of the members of tbe Jackson Club of Philadelphia attended the club room, at 1110 Columbia avenue, last evening, expecting to hear Richard Vaux deliver an address. In this they were disappointed, for owing to Illness lu bis family Mr. Vaux was unable to attend.

In his ab sence Captain William W. Carr spoke for nearly two hours upon the origin of De mocracy. He traced the history or the party since the days of Jefferson and explained at some length the position taken by It upon the vital Issues of the Jefferson. Adams and Jackson administrations.

Short trips to the seaside to enjoy the mild early spring weather, and more extended excursions to Florida and other attractive points in tbe South are about all that vary the monotony and almost complete quiet of Lent in the social world. Many fashionable people are out of town, and of those who remain many have already arranged for brief migratory flights within the coming fortnight. MID LENT ENTERTAINMENTS. A Few Dinners, Muslcalea and Other Mild Dissipations. Mid Lent having arrived, according to custom the rigor ot fashionable society will be somewhat relaxed and durlug this and next week there will be a little more entertaining, and dinners particularly will be numerous.

During the past week there was very little going on, and some dinners aud luncbeons and a few muslcales were all that broke the stagnant dullnessof tbe lasblonable quarter. With Its usual avidity for following a naw thing, society hos for the time being deserted In a measure the Bellevue Holel, at Broad and Walnut streets, long the scene of some of tho most fashionable dinners and other entertainments, and found a new resort In the lolly and luxurious restaurant on top of the Bullitt building, which Is uuder the same management. Here eight stories In air, under skylights through which the sun streams, and with windows overlooking the city for miles, parties ot fashionable ladles and gentlemen dine and have mlddav luncbeons In rooms that for elegance are not sur passed In any hotel In tne city, it is an strange and odd, decidedly more Parisian than anything ever seen in Philadelphia before and the ladles enjoy the novelty so much that they do not appear to mind In the least the trip down town In the cars. Gentlemen's dinners are very frequent, some times half a dozen large affairs In one day, and every week the number of entertainments given In this new ploce grows larger. On Thursday Edward Inger soll gave a dinner to a party ot ladles and gentlemen and Ex Judge Elcock gave a dinner the same day.

Atwood Smith gave a dinner there yesterday. William Henry Lex also gave a dinner during the week. Ouo of the most attractive ot the rooms was occupied on Wednesday by a party of ladies and geutlemen the occasion being a luncheon given by John C. Bullitt In honor of Miss MeCsrter, of Newark, N. who Is visiting Mrs.

Cbllds, who chaperoned the party. Quite a number of prominent ladies were present. Charles Potter gave a dinner at the Bellevue Hotel on Monday and Chorles McCloud one on Tuesday. Uushrod W. Adams last nightentertained the governors of the Stock Exchange.

Mrs. Thomas S. Harrison, 1520 Locust street, gave a dinner during the week for her sister, Miss Marian Harvey. A. J.

Drexel gave a dinner on Monday to tweuty tlve gentlemen at bis house, Thirty ninth aud Walnut streets. The next dinner of the Farmers' Club will be given by Frederick Fraley on Thursday, March 2i Edwin N.Benson will give a dinner next Saturday. The Five O'clock Club held its monthly dinner yesterday atternoon. The annual dinner of the Malta Boat Club will take place In the Bullitt building on Aprils. Mr.

aud Mrs. John R. Fell gave a dinner on Friday. On Thursday Thomas C. Potter entertained a parly of friends at dinner at his home In German town.

Among the few other entertainments of the week the most notable was the musicale given by Mrs. George W. Cbllds at her home, southeast coruer Twenty secondnnd Walnut streets, on Thursday evenlug. It was not a general affair, but was limited to the friends of members of the Quartette Club, to which Mrs. Chllds belougs.

Both professional and amateur musicians took part. Mr. Jarvls having the general direction of tbe music. Among the amateurs Mrs. James W.

Paul, Miss Tyler aud Miss Stanley acquitted themselves In a way that delighted all present and secured them much applause. Among the professionals Miss Everest was warmly received. Among the many charming women present Mrs. Lay, of Washington, was greatly admired and all who did not know her already wanted to be Introduced. Among the young ladles Miss Alice Rosengarten appeared lo particular advantage.

The array of ladles included Mrs. William Henry Rawle, the Misses Drexel, Mrs. John Cadwalader, Mrs. Thomas A. Hcott, Mrs.

E. P. Wilbur and Miss Wilbur, Miss Cochran, Mrs. John R. Drexel, Mrs.

Quite a colony from Philadelphia Is already established at the Hygoia at Old Point Comfort, where much of social Interest is transpiring. Many familiar mccs are toon on tbe fort promenade. Miss Minnie Wanamakor, so bright and pretty, Is tbe centre ofa circle of admirers. Miss God I re Is also popular and receives much attention. Miss Ogden, a queenly looking girl, appears to groat advantago and Is almost Invariably seen under military escort.

Otber Philadelphia girls, no less attractive, are plentiful and their presence adds much to tho social tono of this renowned placo. In fact, the numbf.r of young people from all parts of tbe country Is uncommonly large and lends a great air of brightness and gayety. Miss Martin, of Warren, with a fresh, attractive style of beauty and ebarmlug manners, made a most favorable Impression during her stay of several weeks. Miss Allison, of Ohio, has attracted much attention. Hue Is pretty and affects artistic, old fushlonod gowns.

Although Now Jorsoy brod, Miss Efllo Orubb, ono of the latest arrivals, belongs to Philadelphia, Mho Is a tall, handsomo young woman, with dark eyes and a bright color, and comes with her father, General E.

There have beon a number of charming entertainments In tbe way of dinners and the like, and the Que inuslo adds much to tbe on. He Story of Ecttry and Iter fas Neyer Mi IT IS NOW GIVENHBRB Cashier Barron Made the Arrangements for the Robbers. HE WAS KILLED IN HOT BLOOD The Cashier Thrown Into the Vault Because He Dirt Not Furnish Enough Money.

SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TUB MMES. New York, March 10. The conviction at Bangor, of David Stain and Oliver Cromwell of the murder of Cashier Barron, ten years aeo, does not solve the mystery of the great Dexter Bank robbery. The identity of the murderers has not been discovered by the jury that reudered the verdict. It is kuown to men in this city who arc possessed of a full knowledge of all the circumstances surrounding the affair that the two men found guilty are beyond all question of doubt entirely innocent of the crime imputed to them.

The dread that two innocent men might suffer for a crime in which they did not participate has unloosened tongues which have long been tied upon a dangerous subject, and they now for the first time reveal the hidden mystery of the kill ing of J. W. Barron and the robbery of the Maine Savings Fund, of which ho was the cashier. Thev give tho name of the ac tual perpetrators of that deed, and disclose tho fact that those who believe that Barron was murdered whiledefraudinghis trust and those who claim that he committed suicide to shield his violation of the charge confided to him. aro neither right and yet neither are wholly wrong.

THE DEXTEB BANK ROBBERY. The Dextor Bank was robbed and Barron was killed February 22, 1S78. Subsequently to that time Abe Coaklcy, who, in the following October, was engaged in tho Man hattan Bank robbery, and a man giving the name of James J. Watson were arrested in Deep River, for the attempted rob bory of the Deep Eivcr Bank and were placed in jail at Kast lladdan. The man Watson telegraphed to this city to a well know attorney, retaining him as his counsel, and the latter engaged Samuel Jones, of Hartford, as local counsel in the case.

The evidence against the prisoners was weak and their prosecution was abandoned. Coiikley alone, however, was discharged. Watson, it had been discovered, was no less than old Jimmy Hope, and against him a warrant of detention had been lodged on behalf of the State of New York. In November, 1S70, ho had been convicted of the robbery of "Smith's Bank," at Perry, Wyoming county, N. and had been sentenced to four years' imprisonment.

In January, 1873, he took French leave from Auburn prison and consequently ttill owed the State an imprisonment of nearly three years. Governor Cornell granted a requisition on Governor Hubbard, of Connecticut, for Hope's return as a fugitive from justice. The latter's counsel, however, applied to Governor Hubbard, who is one of the oldest lawyers in this country, for a hearing on the requisition proceedings. This being granted him. Counselor Charles W.

Brooke, on behalf of theprisoner.madetho novel plea that the Governor of another State had noright to demand tho return ofa fugitive on Ajudgmcntthat bad already resulted in a trial ami conviction, and alleging that no authority was vested in tho Governor of the State in which he sought an asylum to return him to tho State from which he was alleged to have fled. He claimed that the act of Congress intended to give effect to the piavisions of the Constitution only provided for the return of a fugitive for trial who had committed a crime in one State and had fled therefrom and sought refuge in another. In the ease of Hope it was argued a trial was had, a conviction obtained and sentence was announced, and the only allegation was that he had escaped the full judgment of the Court. That, however, was purely a matter of negligence on tho part of the authorities of the State, of Now York in not detaining and securing properly tho persons of those confiucd to satisfy the judgments of its Courts, and with that tho provision of the Constitution and the act of Congress intended to give it effect had nothing to do. Governor Hubbard held this novel proposition under advisement for several weeks, and found himself so vexed by the problem set before him that he privately consulted the New York Supreme Judges as to their interpretation of the question.

Finally he decided in Hope's favor, and refused to issue the warrant of extradition. This statement of this legal discussion is of importance uow as setting aside some erroneous assertions concerning the affair and bears on the matter at issue by illustrating tho strenuous efforts that are always made to accomplish the release of a criminal of old Jimmy Hope's infamous rank. JIMMY HOPE TAKEN TO BANGOR. Meanwhile the excitement ovor tho Dexter Bank affair had becomo intensified, especially in the East. A so called detective named Wiggins, belonging in Boston, incited by hope of reward, arrested Hope on the allegation that ho answered the description of a person who was said to have conspired in advance with certain asserted suspects, whose names were unknown, and supposed to have brokon into tho Dexter Bank and killed Barron.

Upon the representations that were made to him tho Governor of Maine issued a requisition on the Governor of Connecticut for tho person of Hope. The latter neither personally nor through bis counsel made protest against these proceedings, but instantly consented to go to Bangor, where an indictment had been found against him. He was tried in Bangor ind was defcuded by the ablest counsel that uoncy could procure. Young Stain's malicious story of the robbery and murder depends largely for its substantiation upon the rn.thfuln.oss of tho allegation that Jimmy (lope was associated with the former's father in the commission of tho crime. Hope's defense was a complete alibi tho most dangerous dofonso when not satisfactorily proven.

But ho brought roputable witnesses to show that at the time of the murdar ho was in Scot Earlo's Hotel, Clinton place and Sixth avenue, New York be produced a man Horn whom be bought a horse at that time and numerous witnesses testified to seeing him driving in Central Park and to meeting him in a roadside tavern. The World nowsnaper, in its vigorous efforts to solve theDexter mystery, has endeavored to bolster up young Stain's fabrication by referring to this trial as having resulted In a disagreement, thus leaving open the juration of Hope's connection with tho crime. That statement is absolutely false. The prosecution of Hope was conducted most venomously and tho detective, Wiggins, had to assist him in his investigation jomo nf the host Now York police jfilcials. The foreman of the jury was leading druggist of Bangor and his tssociatcs were all representative merchants that city.

The trial resulted in the unratified acquittal of the prisoner, and so verpowering was the testimony in his be "lalf that Wiggins, who had prearranged the jiking of Hopo, was menaced with arrest rod pleaded to he lot off without prosecution. Jn tho rendering of the verdict Hope was Uncharged and a second indictment pending igainst him for the same offense was aban lonod in open court by tho Prosecuting Attorney. Anyone who will take the trouble lo road tho evidence adduced upon the trial af Hope and published in the Eastern papers rill see at once whence young Stain obtained his story of the Dexter crieno. The testimony then offered is sulwtnntially that jlumsily rehashed by young Stalu iu his accusation against his father, BOMB SECRET HtflTORY. But old Jimmy Hope's acquittal, although triumphal and complete, was not accomplished without a severe legal struggle and it one time during the trial, so strong was the circumstantial evidenco against him, bis friends had serious misgivings at to the result.

The agony of apprehension that ibis caused them can well bo understood when it it explained that at thut time ha Kit one of the principals engaged in making trrangcnicnts for the great robbery of the Manhattan Savings Institution, which took nee only few mouths later.

Matrimonial matters furnish a theme for conversation and the roll of engagements of tbe season Is rapidly swelllug. A bait dozen or more are reported, but lack authentic acknowledgment. Where both parties are In town it does not matter so much, but when the man belongs to another city young ladles very often put off tbe announcement of engagement as long as possible, In order that tbey may not be cut off completely from tbe attention of other men. As a rule, however, a lady who receives the attention of gentlemen and is already engaged without letting thom know loses caste In the estimation of many and generally sutlers for It In the end.

was lodged In tho County Jail yes terday on the charge nf running away with a lot of goods after they bad been seized by tbe Sheriff on a chattel mortgage foreclosure, lie was captured In Philadelphia and confined for three weeks Id Moyamen sing Prison belor was taken to Camden on requisition. tragedy he had tho assistance of Johnny Dobbs and Sam Portis, better known among his fraternity as Worcester Sara; an assistance invited as to the first two phases, but sudden and unpremeditated as to the last and fatal one. Prior to the robbery of the Dexter Bank Cashier Barron was short iu his accounts. Fearing discovery and disgrace, he sought to cover his deficiency, as had many cashiers before and as had many since, by inviting burglars to enter the bank vaults and help themselves. With this mission in view ho naid several visits to Boston, as can unques tionably be proven, and finally succeeded iu making the arrangements he wished.

The principals having the affair in charge were johnny Dobbs and Worcester Sam, and they invited old Jimmy Hope to participate in the job. He declined upon some pretext, but his actual reason was that lie would not engage in any lawless undertaking of which Dobbs was to be part. Hope is a cool, keen, shrewd man, who, in all his demonstrations of his peculiar anti poverty and anti property theories, has always beon willing to take chances of going to prison, but never of walkiug to the gallows. He made it an inflexible rule never to associate with him in crime hot headed or impulsive men who mirrht make the resultant indictment read different from one simply setting forth a breaking iu and entering." When the big Manhattan scheme was first proposed to him Johnny Dobbs was named as one of the participants and the old man positively refused to engage in the enterprise unless Dobbs was excluded. His fiat was submitted to.

Dobbs was arrested in Philadelphia while attempting to sell some of tho bonds stolen from the Manhattan Savings Institution, but that was an employment subsequent to the parent crime, in which he was not concerned. Dobbs is morose, sullen, cruel and passionate. Hisout bursts of temper render him a dangerous man in any undertaking requiring caution and coolness. For these reasons Jimmy Hope refused to take part in the proposed robbery of the Dextor liaiiK, even inougn Cashier Barron had given his consent to tho theft. KILLED BY ONE OP THE ROBBERS.

So other burglars had to be approached to make up the gang. One of them was George Mason, who is now confined in Trenton Prison. In the trial of Hope there was much testimony bearing upon the movements in or about Dexter of a tall, dark man. Young Stain makes a ludicrous attempt to identify this individual with Jimmy Hope. He was really George Mason, who is six feet high, has black curly hair and wore a full black beard.

Old man Hopo is five feet six inches in height, of light complexion and woro a full, reddish brown beard, which is so long that he hides its ends beneath his vest. The men who actually entered the savings institution on Washington's Birthday ten years ago were Johnny Dobbs and Worcester Sam. Cashier Barron was there to receive them and he had promised them large booty, which when added to the amount of his shortage would be heralded to the world as the amount of the haul made by tho burglars. But Barron was faithless to his confederates as he had been to his employers. After he had been bound and gagged the robbers hurried to the vault, but the booty they found there was small in comparison with what they had been promised and did not adequately compensate them for the labor they bad performed and the risk they had undergone.

Then it was that Johnny Dobbs' hot blood flew to his passionate brain. In a sudden outburst of rage he violently throw the bouud man into the vault, swung the doors inward and then the burglars ran from tbe building. That is the true story of the Dexter Bank robbery. The declarations contained iu it will not surprise the Eastern detectives who have given the matter closest attention, nor the officials of the Dexter Bank, nor that master of his profession, Inspector Byrnes. Worcester Sam is now a fugitive from justice.

In April, 1872, ho escaped from the jail in Worcester, and thore is a standing reward ol lor his capture. Johnny Dobbs is now serving a term of imprisonment in Concord Prison and Mason, as has already beon related, in Trenton Jail. 100,000 PEOPLE DROWSED.

Y. It Is a serious problem for the physiological chemist to discover tbe best method of supplying tbe human system, especially an exhausted one, with the requisite amount of phosphatlc food for tho organism to In hcalih. Tlio phosphatlo salts are never wanting In tho most nourishing varieties of food, whether vegetable or animal. Tbey are closely allied to all the vital are constantly being eliminated from the body, and must be replaced by a fresb supply. The testimony of thousands goes to show that under tho prevalent conditions and habits of American life, there are few who are not greatly benefited when they partake of theso same phosphates as restorative agents.

The sales of phosphatlc preparations for medicinal use, or as a mild tonic, have assumed enormous proportions. On April 'It, 180(1, Professor E. N. Horsford secured his letters patent for the manufacture and use of an acid phosphate of lime to be Incorjioratrxl with starch and bicarbonate of Hoda.und thus serve ns iv baking powrtor Tills Is the first Instance In which, besides acting as an aerating agent, a baking powder wan to add nutritive elements to the bread.

titration of the Matter. Washington, March 10. Tho Investiga tion Into tbe sugar trust was continued by tbe House committee on manufactures tbls morning, Heury O. Havemeyer, who has been a sugar refiner in New York city for tne last twen ly years, belnir tbe first witness. He testified that he was president of the Havemeyer Elder Refining Company and ol the Donncr Company, and was also a member of the Board of Trustees of the Sugar Refineries Company, tbe name of me so called trust.

The capacity of the Havemeyer Elder Company had been Increased since last October lrom 8,600 to 8,000 barrels per day. All the raw suzar used In witness' refineries was Imported, except a comparatively insignificant amount of low grade Louisiana sugar used in the winter season. The profits made by any any oompnny which was a party to the trust were to be distributed among tbe stockholders of all the companies, but no company was to bo reimbursed for any losses sustained. Tho annual sugar consumption ot the United States was three thousand million pounds, and the number of men directly employed In the industry thirty thousand. "The original Intention ol the ourties In Interest," witness continued, "was to put me biock oi tne various companies in tne hands of tbe United States Trust Company, and it Is a pity they did not, for tho functions of those trustees have been wrongly stated, Tbe statement that tbey managed the sugar rellnlug business of tills country Ib absolutely false.

Ills likewise false that they control In any shape or manner the business ol auy oneol ttiecompantes signing tbe deed. There Is a strict provision In the agreement to the contrary, and thut provision bas been rigidly adhered to. "No minutes were kept of tho meetings of tneDoara, as mere was uoiuing to lortnaliy record, buU memoranda were kept of the views expressed by different members of tho board. Nothing took place at tbo board meetings, except an interchange of views, as the board was simply an advisory organization." He said that If raw sugar were put on the free list, a duty of e. per pound on refined sugar would place this country on a par with Europe so fur as labor was concerned aud adutyorjto 1 cent per pouud would put the United States on an entire equality with other countries.

Formerly, witness said, considerable sugar was exported, but the Treasury officials bad kept reducing the amount of drawback to be allowed on tbe Imported materials used in tbe manufacture of refined sugar until they bad got it down so low that the export trade was destroyed. A member nf the committee asked: "If all kinds of sugar were on the free list, could tbe Uulted Slates compete with foreign oountrlos?" "The sugar Industry could not exist with out protection, because of tbe higher price paid to Americau labor. The sugar refiners were discriminated against under tbe present tariff, the ad valorem duty being greater on raw than on refined sugar, Tho Mills bill made things even worse. Tbo Investigation at this point assumed somewhat tbe nature ofa tariff bearing and In reply to Representative Breckenridge tbe witness said that he was discriminated against In the matter of drawback when the Treasury Department on November 1, 1886, fixed tbe rate at 2.U& The witness further said that the drawback had formerly been greater than 2.81, but from tbe time that John Sherman swept off tbe drawback without any consultation with the industry whatever" and down to November 1, 1880, it had been 2.8L A MAD BULL IN NEW ARE.
