Tho story of tho matter la brief. Mrs
Eoffott wan tho only person admitted to the
Jail alnco last Sunday. Yesterday after-
noon aho visited them during the warden's
absence. Last evening sho retired at 0
o'clock. Sho told her husband that sho
was going to visit a alstor nt McDonald nnd
I that sho would retire early, so that sho
could got an early start. Warden Soffott
was about the Jail until 12 o'clock. Ho
'retired to his room, which la soparato from
(Mrs. Soffett's. shrirtlv hofnrn 1 n'nlnxb

gate their cscapo will bo hold this after
noon
The ruse., of the Diddles was a clever one
and was carried out with great success,
They sawed out tho burs of tholr cells, John
cutting out thrco In his. Kdward,
being n Urge man, found It necessary to
cut out four,
Nothing suspicious was noticed In tho
tctlons of the two prisoners, nor wan any
thing wrong discovered when the day guards
went off duty yesterday afternoon. Tho
murderers evidently awed tho bars during
tho night, using what appears to havo been
soap to deaden tho noise and to roduco
friction
The cscapo Is as unparalleled as la their
record for crime, throughout this vicinity,
Tho police nil over the city are searching
for tho fugitives. Whllo It Is not thought
they have gone far, the shrewdness of the
two criminals Is such that the pollco havo
i hard problotn to solve In their recapture.
Tho, two guards Injured will probably re
cover, Tbo bullet wound sustained by
Kyuoula Is not regarded us dangerous.,
Tho physicians havo boon unablo to ascer

wounds. Ills, head la badly contused, but
there are no signs that his skull was frac

BERLIN, Jan. 30. The government was
defeated today In. tho torlff committee of
tho Itelchstag by IS votes to 10 on the
amendment of Herr Oamn. conservative, re
quiring the. production of certificate of
origin of all goods subject to duties differ
Ing In amount to tho country where they
are made. Without the certificate of origin
the duty shall bo Imposed except in cases
of no doubt that 'tho goods woro mado In a
country entitled to lower rates.
Tho commlttco adopted, the first section
of paragraph 8, which Is as follows:
"Dutiable goods from any country treat
Ing Gewan Bhlpa and Qcrmah goods less
favorably than It treats thoso of other
states may be subjected, besides tho regular
duty, to double rates. Goods not subject to
duty con bo taxed half their value."
Count Von Schw'erln-Loowltz, conserva
tive, offered an amendment empowering the
governmonC to treat tho goods lmportod
from foreign countries with tho same duties
and tho sarao customs regulations that such
countries apply to acrmnngoods, Insofar as
tho treaties would permit of such action.
Dntlew Asrnlnat Union Too Low.
Herr Deaumor said that Gorman duties,
especially ngatnst' tho United Btntcs, wero
too low. Daron Heyl J5u Horrenshelm,
liberal, complained of the heavy trado bal
ance against Germany In tho American
trado. He said that German exports to tho
United States had rcmalnod stationary alnco
18D3, whllo Germany's Imports from that
country had Increased from 402,000,000
marks to 1,003,000,000 marks. II submitted
comparative tables of tho duties collected
by Gormanyand tho United States', purport
ing to show that Amorlcan duties on twenty-two
staple lines ranged from 11 por cent
on solo leather to 2,000 per cent on writing
machines higher than tho duties collected
by Germany. '
Other examples cltod by' Daron Hoyl Zu
HcrrtnBhelm wore bicycles, on which ho
said tho American duty was 380 per cent
higher than that collected by Germany:
sowing machines, on which tho American
duty was from 100 to 180 per cent higher;
furniture, 250 per cent higher, and tobacco
leaf, 1,932 por cent higher.
The speaker protested that ho did not do-
sire a tariff war.
"Dut," said Herr Gotheln, "theso amend
ments provoko a tariff war. Tho lncrcaso
In our imports frbrn tho United States Is
duo to our demands for raw products, llko
copper,' which ouY electrical Industry ro-'
cuirea."
Tho voto on von Schwcrln-Locwlta's
amendment was postponed.

At r 2 o clock the' unfinished htislness

Mr. Tillman nd.dr.iBcd tho senate. Ho do

whlph had bcon brought tp the attention of

(Mr. Rawlins) has shown that there la

Discussing tho historical subject raised
yesterday, Mr. Tillman said:
"I am glad that Massachusetts has ono
ropresentatlvo In this chnmbcr, even If
South Carolina has only one," he Interpo
lated significantly, "who stands for the
principles upon which this government was
founded." Ho then entered upon an clab
prato account of tho part South Carolina
took In the war for tho Independence of
tho colonies.
Gets Attention of ,AII.
Whllo Mr.. Tillman was speaking, several
Bonators engaged In conversation among
themselves. To this Mr. Tillman objected,
because of tho Interruption, and he re
quested that those so engaged retire to tho
cloak rooms. For onco ho was; ho said,
making a speech for homo consumption.
"Of course," ho said, "tho senators on the
republican sldo aro not interested. I oould
hardly hopo to reach on such a subject tho
minds and hearts of tho calloused majority
tno commercialized, money-grabbing,
money-loving majority, as such a subject
la not In consonanco with tho miserable,
canting, damnable attitude which that
party is now assuming." By tho time he
had concluded this linguistic diversion Mr.
.Tillman hud the attention of all the sen
ators present.
"I would ask tho majority In this cham
ber," ho said. "If In trying to forco the
Filipinos to accept our government wth.
out a piomlso thoy nro not Inviting tho ex
asperation of the natives" and a spirit of
perpetual insurrection?"
Tbey elf?rt to treat tho Filipinos as
"chattels cattle," ho declared, was damn
able and ho pbarged tho majority sldo with
being tho real murderers of our troops In
tho Philippines. t
Hoar Denounces the Order.
Commenting on tho sodltlon laws pro
mulgated by the republicans, Mr. Tillman
Inquired of Mr. Hoar whether tho Spring
Hold Republican, which, bo said, was op

"Whllo I decline to enter upon any dls
cusston of Massachusetts newspapers," said
Mr. Honr, "I will say to the senator If ho

In conclusion Mr. Tillman said the pend
ing Philippine tariff bill as a proposition
to erect a tariff wall between the United
States and another part of the domcstla
territory was a doparture from every prin

tion of the lives of miners In the territories.
It provides that In ovcry mluo over 100
feet In depth mlno ownors bo required to
provldo ii.oOO cubic feet of puro nlr for

Mr. Laccy of Iowa,-tho author of tho
bill, urged tho Importance of proper venti
lation of coal mines. Ho offered nn amend
mont providing Hint the managers of coal
mines should employ spot fircrs to flro
shorts thorcln. Whllo the bill was being
discussed something of a stir was caused
by tho nnpearanco of ofllcors nnd marines
of tho German cruiser Moltko, who marched
Into tho public nailery In uniform nnd no--coutred
with their sldo arras. Tho eon
fusldn wns so pronounced that tho speaker

mand of tho house, as ovldenccd when the
bill wns beforo tho houso ten days ago.
Mr. Kluttz of North Carolina advocated
the passage of the bill, urging the provision

tics as nn especial reason why tho bill
should commend Itself to members from
cotton gro.wlng states.
Under tho latltudo allowed for debate
Mr. Thayer of Massachusetts presented a
potttlon signed by 1,200 business men of
vorccstor, Mass., ln favor of reciprocity
with Canada.
Mr. Maddox of Georgia Interrupted Mr.
Hopkins to express tho opinion that tho

upon cotton under tho bill was in tho In
terest of tho speculators. "I am sorry to
hear a gontloman from tho south express
such nn opinion," observed Mr. Hopkins.
Tlio collection of theso statistics will bo
for tho benefit of tho planter, manufacturer
and laborer."
fb reference to the civil sorvlco provision
of the bill, Mr. Ball asked It Mr. Hopkins
would accept nn amendment to provldo that
clerks eligible to transfer or retention un
der the bill should bo apportioned under
the stato according to population.
Mr. Hopkins replied thnt such nn amend-
mont was unnecessary and alluded to tho
well known civil service record of tho pres
ident as a guaranty that Justice and fair
dealing would provall.
An amendment wns adopted providing
that all employes of tho census bureau
should bo citizens of tho United Stntes.
Several hundred employes' of tho census
