Against White on the Finance Com
mittee Mr. Sherman Indulge* In Some
Tlaln Talk—Reviews the Tariff Work.
No More Tariff Work.
Washington, Aug. 20.—By the vote
•vf 27 to 16, without a word of debate,
the senate to-day adopted the Murphy
resolution declaring that it was the
sense of the senate that no further
tariff legislation should be considered
at this session and that it was advisa
ble to adjourn at the earliest possible
moment. The voto in detail was as
follows:
Yeas—Aldrich, Allen, Blanchard,
Caffery, Carey, Chandler, Cullom,
Davis, Dolph, Gallinger, Gibson, Gor
man, Jones of Nevada, Kyle, Mander
son, Mitchell of Oregon, Murphy,
Patton, Pelfer, Pettigrew,Platt,Pugh,.
Quay, Roach, Shoup, Smith, Stewart.
Total 27.
Nays—Bate, Berry, Blackburn,Cock
rell, Coke, Faulkner, George, Harris,
Uunton, Jarvis, Lindsay, Ransom,
Turpie, Vest, Vilas and White. To
tal 16.
This vote bears out the general ex
pression of the belief that despite
Senator Harris’ emphatic declarations,
made with much reddening of the
face and bristling of gray mustache,
that he would never consent to ad
journment until the senate should act
on the free raw materials bills of the
house, no one now here believes that
a single one of these measures will be
passed.
l lie vote on the Murphy resolution
was the more significant because
when Mr. Harris’ resolution for the
appointment of Mr. White of Cali
fornia to the vacancy on the finance
committee was laid before the senate
Mr. Manderson of Nebraska said that
there would be no objection to the
resolution to-day and explained that
the opposition yesterday contained no
reflection on the senator from Califor
nia, and Mr. Hill concurred with Mr.
Manderson and expressed the hope
that the resolution would be passed
and it was then adopted without divis
ion, and because it followed a warm
fight over the resolution of Mr. Gray
of Delaware, instructing the finance
committee to report back the free
sugar bill with an amendment to
strike out the one-eighth differential
on refined sugar and Mr. Manderson’s
amendment, instructing the com
mittee to report an amendment
providing for the sugar bounty of
the existing law. On the latter
some debate occurred on the parlia
mentary situation at the end of which
Vice President Stevenson held that
the vote should be first taken on Mr.
Manderson’s amendment to instruct
the committee to report back an
amendment to the free sugar bill pro
viding for the McKinley bounty on
raw domestic sugars. Great interest
was manifested in the result of the
roll call. The two Louisiana senators
and the three Populists voted in favor
of the Manderson amendment. The
Manderson amendment providing for
the McKinley bounty in the free sugar
bill was carried, 21 to 20, but the point
of no quorum was then raised and the
roll again called. The call developed
the presence of fifty-four senators,
eleven more than a quorum, and at
the request of Mr. Gorman the reso
lution was temporarily laid aside, Mr.
Aldrich stating that he thought a vot
ing quorum would appear in two
hours.
During the confusion which fol
lowed the announcement of the vote
on Mr. Murphy’s resolution Mr. Lind
say offered a resolution expressing it
to be the sense of the senate that con
gress should not adjourn until a bill
should have been passed relieving and
discontinuing any duty on refined su
gar which would operate for the ben
efit of the sugar trust. Mr. Mander
son moved to amend the resolution so
as to instruct the finance committee
to report back the amount of profit to
be derived by the whisky trust from
the tariff bill now in the hands of the
president.
Mr. Sherman then took the floor to
indulge, as he said, in some “plain
talk.” He reviewed the blunders made
by the Democrats in the general con
duct of the long tariff fight. The re
sult of these, he said, was that from
fifty to 100 very important, errors
would be found in the bill as it would
be signed by the President. Already
several of great importance had been
discovered. One ’ of them, that
providing for the free entry of
alcohol used in the arts, would, if un
corrected, cost the government $20,
000,000 or $30,000,000 of revenue an
nually. Mr. Hoar, the author of the
amendment, had not expected that it
would be accepted. He had simply
offered it as a tentative proposition'.
He quoted from the record in support
of this statement.
J>lr. Sherman deprecated the inte r
ference of the president with con
gress but be justified Mr. Carlisle’s
letter as to the effect of the tariff bill
on the revenues. He stated that he
would, if opportunity offered, vote
for a straight duty on raw and refined
sugar without the differential. As
far as the other free list bills were
concerned, he was opposed to placing
iron ore, coal and barbed wire on the
free list.
Mr. Gray followed Mr. Sherman and
thought that no matter what the re
sult of the coming election might be
there would not be another McKinley
law. The people were tired of the
scenes of the past winter which re
sulted from the McKinley law.
The resolution went over.
Mr. Harris then called up the house
bill to repeal the tax on alcohol used
in the arts. He asked unanimous con
sent to consider it, but Mr. Chandler
objected and moved to refer it to the
finance committee. The motion was
lost, 14 to 25, no quorum voting. The
clerk then called the roll. This
showed only two more than a quorum
and, on Mr. Harris’ motion, the sen
ate went into executive session.

Vancouver, Aug. 20.—The steamer
Empress of Japan, which arrived
from the Orient last night, between
Hong Kong and Yokohama struck a

HARRISON ON LIVE TOPICS,
The Ex-President Dlscuiae* the Tariff
end Indiana and New York Polities.
New York, Aug. 20.—Tho Commer
cial-Advertiser to-day prints the fol
lowing interview with ex-Prcsident
Harrison at the house of Captain
Bargnolt, at Spring Lake, N. J.
‘‘My position is a peculiar one. It
is hard for people to understand how
I am situated. My lips are necessar
ily sealed so far as criticism of this
administration goes. It would be in
very bad taste or form to draw
comparisons between my own
and Mr. Cleveland’s administration.
It would be highly dis
courteous for me to state wherein I
believe this administration errs.
Therefore I have uniformly refused
to express my opinion, to draw any
comparisons, or to criticise and I shall
continue that policy.
“Shall you not have something to
say about the new tariff bill?”
‘‘That is a different matter. That
measure is not fathered by the ad
ministration as I understand it and is
a legitimate matter for discussion.
But I am not yet ready. I do not
wish to speak hastily of a mat
ter that so intimately concerns
the welfare of the party and
country and goes to the very root of
the prosperity of the nation. Later I
shall prepare a careful analysis of the
situation and shall speak to the peo
ple during the Indiana campaign. I
shall speak two or three times, and
will let the people know my views on
the tariff question. Some things that
I say may be worth printing.
“When will the campaign open in
Indiana?
“Locally it opens very soon now.
But the great battle will not begin
until the fall is well advanced.”
“Do you confidently expect Repub
lican success there?”
“It would be premature to predict.”
“What do you think of the situation
iD New York state?”
“I think the situation in New York
state demands that every man outside
the state keep his hands off, that is
what I think. Let outsiders keep
their hands off and attend to their
own business. I don't see how any
thing that I or any other outsider can
sav in the way of encouragement can
help restore harmony. All that I
know about the situation I read
in the papers and I know that the
harmony of which you speak has not
yet been secured, aud that the two
wings of the party still maintain sep
arate organizations and are as far
apart as ever. Suggestions, advice or
talk of any kind from outsiders would
be impertinent and ill-advised. Of
course the result in New York this
fall will have a mighty influence upoD

THE A. P. A. WAR.
Mr. Kerens Will Bring the Matter Be
fore the National Committee.
St Louis, Mo., Aug. 20.—lion. Rich
ard C. Kerens, the Missouri member of
the national Republican committee,
will leave for New York to-day for
the purpose, it is said, of consulting
with members of the national com
mitee as to the. mode of casting the
A. P. A. adrift. It will be remem
bered that a resolution presented by
Mr. Kerns at the Missouri Republican
convention was turned down.
Mr. Kerens, in an interview,
said of the prospects of Repub
lican success in Missouri this
fall: I think that our chances were
excellent. The menace to success is
in the attempt of the A. P. A. to at
tach itself to the Republican party.
We don’t want them. Nobody knows
who they are nor how many there are
of them. They are a band of fanatics
who deny their own identity. They
are a lot of sand-baggers in politics
and my friends and m.vself want to
know who they are. They belong to
no political party. Their doctrine is
almost the same as that of the Orange
men of the Dominion of Canada. Em
phatically the party must divorce
itself from the A. P. A. and any other
secret Dolitieal organization.

Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 20.—Will
iam Stanley, a farmer of Pendleton,
Ind., is preparing to sue Congressman
Bynum of Indiana for 51,500. During
the last presidential campaign Stan
ley heard Mr. Bynum deliver a speech
in which he stated if the Democratic
ticket was successful wheat would be
worth 51-25 a bushel. Stanley went
home and sowed wheat extensively,
and raised a crop of 2,000 bushels.
This he declares he has been com
pelled to sell at different prices be
tween 45 and 50 cents a bushel. He
will sue the congressman for the dif
ference between what he realized and
what he w.ould have received had the
congressmans assertions proven true.
Stanley formerly a Democrat,
but is now a Populist.

and is now behind the bars there.
cQUAL TO IRRIGATION.
flow to Produce a Sure Crop—Sub-Soil
Plowing.
A number of experiments in sub-soil
plowing by Younger iiros., the we'l
lcnown horticulturists of Geneva, Ne
braska, have shown such astonishing
results as to practically demonstrate
two tilings: 1< irst, that in seasons of
normal rain fall the increased yield on
land that lias been sub-soil plowed, as
compared with that which has received
ordinary plowing, will of itself pay for
the increased labor or cost many times
over and leave a larger margin of profit
besides, and second, that in years of
extreme drouth a bountiful crop is as
sured, that would be considered large
for a season of normal rain fall, so that
in very dry seasons the difference be
tween sub-soil plowing and ordinary
plowing may be expressed as the differ-,
ence between a good crop and none at
all. The Younger llros., believing that
the results obtained by them were re
markable enough in the light of their
importance to the farmers of Nebraska
made a special report to the secretary
of agriculture at Washington from
which we quote:
“Having practiced sub-soil plowing
extensively on our nursery grounds
near Geneva in growing fruit and orna
mental trees with gratifying results,
we concluded to experiment with fruit
and vegetables. After preparing the
ground by subsoil plowing in the fall
of 1893, the crop in 1893 consisted of
corn and potatoes. Corn that year
being only a very moderate crop in this
vicinity (maximum 40 bushels per acre,
and the average not to exceed 30 bush
els per acre) we harvested a crop of 75
bushels per acre from a strip of ground
that had been sub-soiled. The potato
crop was practically a failure in this
vicinity; the result of our experiment
was a very good crop—about 135 bush
els per acre.
“This season (1894) the crop consists
of corn, oats, rye and potatoes. Rye
harvested indicates ayieldof 35 bushels
per acre, while rye in an adjoining field
—the same seed, planting and harvest
—will yield 10 bushels per acre.
“Oats on land sub-soil plowed in fall
of 1893 will yield 40 to 45 bushels per
acre; oats on land adjoining, under or
dinary cultivation, will yield 10 to 15
bushels per acre (the average crop
under the adverse conditions that pre
vailed), in each instance the seed, soil
and planting being identically the same.
"The superiority of sub-soil plowing
is especially conspicuous in the length
of straw and stand on the ground.
“The results of experiments with
corn and potatoes cannot, at this time,
be determined. lVith a continuation
of the present favorable conditions we
will have the largest yield of corn we
have ever had. Even under these fa
vorable conditions the corn on sub-soil
plowed ground seems to possess an ele
ment of strength, that will in all prob
ability, exert its influence in demon
strating the value of sub-soil cultiva
tion. ”
The plan followed by Younger Bros,
has been to first turn over a furrow to
the depth of eight inches, in the ordi
nary way, and then run the sub-soil
plow in that furrow gaged to a depth
of six or eight inches; thus stirring up
the soil to a depth of fourteen to six
teen inches Inspection shows that
even after our recent remarkable
drouth the nursery stock, as well as
the field crop of Younger Bros, bears
every appearance of a healthy and
more than ordinary yield.
The results achieved by sub-soil
plowing require but one such plowing
in about three years, so that the in
creased cost of labor as compared with
results is merely nominal.
Interviewing an Actress.
Maybe the reporter didn’t know how
to interview an actress, and maybe
that’s why he had so much trouble.
Having sent up his card and been ad
mitted to her presence, he stated his
business, and she said, languidly: “ I’m
sorry you’ve come; I don’t fancy you
newspaper men, and hate being inter
viewed.” Maybe he knew this was
just said for effect, and that she wouldn’t
miss the interview for a heap, but he
replied, “Oh, well, then, I won’t trouble
you. Sorry I intruded. Good day.”
However, she got to the door first, and
said, “Oh, novf you’re here, I’ll oblige
you.” And he answered, “Oh, no; I
wouldn’t trouble you for the world.”
“ But it won’t be very much trouble.”
“Well, never mind: I don’t care partic
ularly about it.” “ But—but—in—fact
—it will be a pleasure. I only object
because reporters always ask the same
questions, and then don’t print just
what you say.” “Well, I’ll try and do
better than that,” and they seated
themselves. Then he asked:
“How did you celebrate your 34th
birthday ? ” “ Eh ? ”—jumping up—
“what d’ye mean, sir! You’re a mean
wretch to ask such a question.” Steps
on her lapdog—addresses dog, “ Drat
ycur pelt, get out!” Then she observed
him writing, and asked what he was
doing. He replied, “ I promised to
print exactly what you said, and I have
taken down your very words.” “About
the dog?” “Yes.” “Goodness gracious.
You won’t print that?” “ I will.” “But
that wasn’t meant to print.” “ Can’t
help it” “ Oh, but it won’t do. You
mustn’t. Let’s begin the interview
now.” “ Very well. Which do you
prefer as an advertisement — being
robbed of diamonds, run away with by
a hack, or having a divorce suit? ” “Sir,
I—I—don’t do such things! I never
heard such questions! ” “I promised
to try to vary the list you said had be
come so monotonous. How many hus
bands have you living?” “See here, if
you don’t stop this I’ll send for one of
’em. That is—p'ease state that I’m not
married.” “ Just so. Do yen shave
your head?” “Sir; of course not!
Are you crazy ? ”
“ Look here, ma’am, I was to print
just what you said.”
“ But I don’t want you to.”
“ But it must be done.”
“ Well, then, if you don’t ask me if
the audiences everywhere are as enthusi
astic as they are here, and what I do
with all my bouquets, and if I don’t al
most feel that I ought to be in a board
ing school instead of on the stage, as
I’m so young, and if I don’t find it very
embarrassing to have all the men so
madly in love with me, and several bank
directors committing suicide because I
won’t marry them—if you don’t ask me
those questions I won’t say another
blessed word! So, there! And if you
print what I’ve said I’ll sue you for
libel."—Boston Post.
“PURELY SELFISH.”
ENGLAND’S REASONS FOR HER
ATTITUDE ON SILVER.
A London Financial Paper Score* the
HrltUh Cold limp—America Can
Coerce Joliu Hull to Adopt a Silver
Policy.
[The London Financial News.l
There have not been wanting of late
indications of growing irritation with
England for its dog in the manger sil
ver policy. Gold monometalism is
convulsing two continents and gravely
compromising the future of the poorer
states in Europe. This feeling has
been voiced in America by Senator
Lodge, whose proposal virtually to
shut out British goods from the
United States until we should assent
to a bimetallic convention, though
extreme and absurd, indicates the
trend of sentiment on the other side of
the Atlantic.
Senator Lodge is not a silver man in
the usual sense, being opposed out and
out to free coinage in the United
States under existing conditions, and
therefore his views, though tinged
with strong feeling, may attract more
attention here than those of the pro
nounced silverites. Mr. Lodge is very
bitter about the failure of the Brus
sels conference of last year, where the
attitude of the British official dele
gates was “scarcely less than dis
courteous” to the United States, and
he believes that nine-tenths of the
American people regard it in that
light
A feeling of this kind is not to
be lightly ignored. We have fre
quent diplomatic differences with
the United States, but as a rule
there is seldom associated with
these any sense of animus between the
people of the two countries. But now
we are encouraging the growth of a
feeling that on a question which af
fects the prosperity of millions of in
dividual Americans England is in
clined to entertain views unfriendly
to the LTnited States. We know, of
course, that the unfriendliness is acci
dental, and that our monetary policy
is controlled by purely selfish notions
that w-e do not mind seeiug India
suffering from our action much more
than America does. The Americans
PLEDGED TO FREE TRADE.
are sufficiently old fashioned to be
lieve that it is the part of a friend to
show himself friendly, and when this
country turns a deaf ear to the plaint
of half the world, including all the
New World, they not unnaturally take
it unkindly.
It is not for us to say whether the
feeling of irration is wholly justiSed
or not; it exists, and that is the main
point. Moreover, it is taking a shape
that may entail very awkward conse
quences on us. The recent proposal
to coin Mexican dollars in San Fran
cisco was a bid toward giving us an
object lesson by ousting us from our
commanding position in eastern trade.
There is a plain moral in the remark
that if the United States would ven
ture to cut herself adrift from Europe
and take outright to silver she would
have all America and Asia at her
back, and would command the mar
kets of both continents. “The bar
rier of gold would be more fatal than
any barrier of a custom house. The
bond of silver would be stronger than
any bond of free trade.”
There can be no doubt about it that
if the United States were to adopt a
silver basis to-morrow British trade
would be ruined before the year was
out. Every American industry would
be protected, not only at home, but in
every other market. Of course the
states would suffer to a certain extent
through having to pay her obligations
abroad in gold; but the loss on ex
change under this head would be a
mere drop in the bucket compared
with the profits to be reaped from the
markets of South America and Asia,
to say nothing of Europe.
The marvel is that the United States
has not long ago seized the opportu
nity, and but for the belief that the
way of England is necessarily the way
to commercial success and prosperity, j
undoubtedly it would have been acne
long ago. Now Americans are awak
ening to the fact that “so lone- as they
narrow their ambition to becoming a
larger England” they can not beat us.
It has been a piece of luck for us that
it has never before occurred to the
Americans to scoop us out of the
world's markets by going on a silver
basis, and it might serve us right if, |
irritated by the contemptuous apathy i
of our government to the gravity of
the silver problem, the Americans re
taliate by freezing out gold. It could
easily be done.

Sugar at Half Price.
The sugar planters of Louisiana
must indeed feel proud of the attitude
of their representative in the I'nited
States senate. These men were re
cently elected to congress with spe
cific instructions to care for the best
interests of the state which they rep
resent. Keitlier Senator Blanchard
nor Senator Caffery has done so.
Louisiana can and will only be thor
oughly protected by the republican
party which represents protection.
The two southern senators thought
otherwise. They made a trade; they
bartered away the certain prosperity
of their state for a vague and and in
definite nothingness. They have as
the matter stands now, deliberately
voted to rob every sugar planter in
the state of Louisiana of exactly one
| half of the amount of protection
which was given to them under the
McKinley tariff.
But cane sugar is not the only sugar,
and on the broad lines of national
progress and prosperity something
further must be said regarding protec
tion to the American sugar producing
industry. Those gentlemen of Louis
iana, who have their every interest
invested in the sugar business, if not
content with the action of Senator
Blanchard and of Senator Caffery,
should by this time have decided that
the voice of the Louis'ana sugar
planter be heard in plain and vigor
ous terms. If the Louisiana sugar in
dustry must be subject to democratic
barter, let it not be disposed of at
half price.

Erskine, the leader of the English bar
in his time, and one of the most brilliant
lawyers Great Britain ever produced,
never received a greater yearly income
than $60,000 and more than £5,000 in
any one case. Bir James Scarlet, after
wards Lord Abinger, a very successful
lawyer, had an income certainly not to
exceed Erskine's. The same is true of
Garrows, another great English lawyer.
Ballantyne received from the British
Government a very large fee for going
to Cal '.utta to try a murder case, but a
large part of it was consumed in ex

America takes the lead in big lawyer
fees, and it is only a dozen years or so
that our lawyers have been so lucky.
Pinckney, Webster, Choate or any of
our great lawyers in times past never
dreamed of such extravagant bills. The
first great fee ever known in this coun
try was received by Clarkson N. Potter,
in the foreclosure of the Canandiagua
railroad, not many years ago. It is
stated that he received $100,000 in that
