N. Y. Commercial and Financial Chronicle.
Faroar Night, April 27, 1888.
The occurrences affecting trade and
commerce daring the past week have
been quite unimportant. The debate
in Congress over the new .tariff bill
drags its Blow length along, and the
political intelligence from Europe is
without decided feature. Ien in
labor troubles there is nothing to
call for special reference. The tem
perature early in the week was quite
low; damage being reported to fruits
by frosts. The close, however, is
much warmer. - Money is easy, but
trade and speculation alike feel the
absence of stimulating influences.
Lard on the spot was firmer and
fairly active early in the week, but
declined yesterday and was again
lower today, dosing dull at 7 85j for
prime city, 8.25a8 30c for prime to
choice Western, 8 10c. for refined to
the Continent, and 9c. for refined to
South America. The speculation in
lard for future delivery opened the
week quite buoyant, but has latterly
declined smartly, under sales to re
alize, and again fell off today, closing
unsettled.
Potk is firm,' but the close is dull;

Tallow steady at 4$a5c. Sieatiue is
dearer at 9 9c , and oleomargarine
is quiet at 77o. Butter is il acuve
demand and firmer at 22273 for

KEWS.
By Telegraph to the News and Oborver.
Washington, April 30. Senate.
Among the bills reported f om com
mittees and placed on the calendar
were the following : House bill for a
public building at Asheville, . C-;
Senate bill fixing the salaries of judges
of the United Slates District Courts
at $5,000 (Mr. Coke dissenting); Sen
ate bid to increase the endowment of
the Louisiana State University and
Agricultural College; by Mr. Stew
art, to require the purchase and coin
age of not less than $4,000,000 worth
of silver bullion per month. ; He said
the bill involved no new principle, and
asked that it be read a first and sec
ond time and laid on the table. So
ordered. House bill to authorize the
county of Liurence to construct a
bridge across the Oconee river, at or
near Dublin.
be railroad land forfeiture bill
was takn up and all the pending
amendments were dmposcd of, two
being withdrawn and one laid on the
table.
Mr. Paddoek offered an amendment '
providing that nothing in the act
ohould be construed as limiting the
rights granted to purchasers or
settlers by he forfeiture act of the
third of March, 1887, or as repealing,
altering or amending that act.
Mr. Call opposed tbe amendment
as one that would operate to the in
terest of large purchasers nd specu
lators in railroad laud to which the
companies had no title.
Tbe mendment was adopted
yeas 38, nays 7.
Mr Call offered an amendment pro
viding that actual settlers on tbe for
feited railroad grant land in the State
of Florida who made actual settle
meut after tbe time limited for the
onstrucuon cf the road may perlec
their titles under the homestead ' or
pre-emption law.
After discussion the bill went ovei
without action on the amendment.
The international copyright bill was
taken up Th amendment heretofore
offered by Mr. Morrill (as to the re
publication of magazines and news
paper article) was withdrawn Jbv his
authority and another amendment
was offered for him by tbe cnair who
eaid he would accept it as a matter of
o mproiiiise. Ii was that any pub
hsher of. newspape s or magazines
may import for his own use, but not
for sale, not more than two copies of
any newspaper or magazine puo
lished in any foreign couutry. The
tmtndtuent was adopted.
Mr. Yi st moved to strike out the
words "from type t-et" so as to have
the clause read ''book o dramatic
romposi ion printed within the hmitn
of tbe United States." This p opo
union elicited a good d-al of debate
aud was fiualtv rejected without di
vision la the oou se of i he diuoue
siou Mr. B-ck spoke xgamst the bill
as one which proposed to give an ab
HO'ute monopoly to a few favored in
dividual in the United States in com
bination with foreign au horn, aud
said that the demand of the typo
graphical unions to Lave the printing
all doue here would increase tbe price
of all foreign books to the Ameri n
people- The obj ct of the bill as
not to carry on t be Constitutional
provision "to promote science and
the useful arts" but to enhance the
price of all things that 1 tended
ijo develop eithe science or the
Useful artx. Referring to the point
that the effeo of tbe hill would be
to prohibit the importation of books,
('rom which a ievenue of $684,000
was collected last year), he argued
that the bill wau a ruonsy bill, and
therefore one which could not consti
tu iuualiy be originated in the Su
ate Waiving that po'iut, he said that
Congress had been denounced as
guilty if robbery aud p racy and dis
houeaty in all its forms because it
ha l not heretofore passed such laws.
He thought the ,e ough to be a little
more modesty about tbe matter.
Whenever a bill had been brought
before 0 ngress looking to the pro
motion of Bcierce aud the useful arts it
was oppme i by the printers and pub
lishers. The pending bill he cbar
a;t.enzed as a measure to allow a
combination bf publishers and type
tetters to put up the- price of
every book It was protection
gone mad. It was a bill for
trusts, pools, combinations, exclusive
rights to certain men. He went on to
nay that if the pending bill were to
become a law the A uerican people
would no longer have the benefit of
cheap booke, because a union of
the publiabe a and a union of the
printers would force their publica
tion at just such prices as they saw
tit to ask.' That was tbe object of the
bill, as was confessed by a 1 tbe wit
neBses -vho had appeared before the
committee aud who had formerly pro
tested against the Hawley bill of last
year.
Mr. Jones, of Arkansas, moved to
strike out all of section 2 (requiring
as part of the conditions of copy
right, printed copies of books and
works of art to be Bent to the Con
gressional Library, the book to be
printed from typo se. within the
United States).
This proposition caused another
long debate. When a vote was aken
it stood yeas 14. na s l'J, no quorum
votinir Adiourned.
HOUBK.
The c i1! of States for the introduo
tion of b lis for i e erence was dis
pensed with, mem ers being permit
ted to hie tbeir me tsures at the clerk a
desk. The House then went into
committee of th whole on the tariff
bill, and was add essed by Mr. Groa
venor, of Ohio.
He referrel to what h character
ixed as the stock cbaicre that this
'was an attempt of
attempt of the Democratic
majori y, stimulated by the message
of the 1 resident to tepeal and gel
rid of tbe war tax. It was said thai
the protective sjitem Wat ; ft system
born of the war for the suppression
of the rebellion. There were, he
continued, no war taxes left, save
and except alone the system of in
ternal revenue taxation, which waa in
this country what it had been in all
other countries, a resort to which the
country was driven by the exigencies
of war, and which ought to have been
the first monument of taxation to be
stricken down and removed.
It was strange that the Democratic
party was led by the statesman Presi
dent of the United States in defense
of the internal revenue system; that
suddenly the Democratic party had
become the champion of that system.
For twenty years gentlemen repre
senting the Southern States had not
only denounced the general system
of internal revenue, but had opposed
all government effort to enforce the
law, and so thoroughly inoculated the
people of the South with the belief
that the system was tyrannous
that they had built op a great
sentiment in ihe South that to
defeat and violate and destroy
that system by fraud and violence
and bloodshed and murder was but
an assertion of the God given right
of rebellion against the tyrannous
enactment of a tyrannous govern
ment. N w, tbe Democratic party,
di ected by the message of the rresi
dent, ordained that the most sacred
monument of taxation in this country
was now, and must be in the future, the
internal revenue system. Discussing
briefly tne speech of the gentleman
fromMinneBOta (Mr. Nelson) he q-io-
ted that portion of the speech in which
the gentleman put free wool and free
lumber against free whiskey aud free
tobacco When the gent lean, n un
der Ook to put Republicans who fa
vored tbe repeal of the internal reve
nue tax into the category of being in
favor of free whiskey and free to
bacco he made a great mistake. T e
proposition to repeal tbe tax on
whiskey was to remit the power of
taxation to the States and to the gen
et al government. .-
Referring to tbe remark in Mr.
Hemphill's speech that the present
tariff aw was unconctitutional aud
robbery, he queried how it would be
any less robbery by reason of a re
duction of rates. If a robber took from
bim $50 (a'l be had), it was robbery ;
f he took $10 and left $40 it was stnl
robbery
Mr Hemphi'l explained that be
did not contend that tbe tariff was
unconstitutional, but that the tariff was
unconstitutional when it raised rev
enue beyonq tne needs oi tne gjv
ernmeLt. Mr. Grosvenor suggested that if
th internal revenue s stem wax abol
ished the present tariff would not
produce more revenue tban the gov
ernment needed. If, when the inter
nal system was repealed, it was
found that the tariff brought in a sur
plus revenue then Jhere might be
some point in the gentleman s argu
ment.
He denied that any man on this
floor could be a Democrat and re
main in favor of the protective ays
tern. In a lew months th Demo
cratic party would go before the peo
ple. VV'bat did it propose to say in
its convention? Wbat account did
it D'opose to! render of its stewaid
hip! If it broke its promises would
the people again believe its promises?
He made no claims to political
prophecy bat be believed that f the
pressure ot local interests wai re
mov. d the party woud bi doomed as
it deserved to be. Tbe party did not
deserve to live thai ha I not the moral
courage of its convictions (Ap
plause). Ihe splendid record Cr over
Cleveland had made would, not be
able to save the pa ty. Its sins
of omission would be too heavy a
burden for any one man o carry.
And what woold tbe geutl- man on the
other side say? That the .Democratic
party bad nailed a lie upon its ban
ner; that it had gone through every
town, village aud hamlet ; of this
bioad land, and shouted revenue re
form, and pledged itself to relieve
the overburdened treasury, but when
the time came, and the roll was called,
it had takeu refuge in the sutler's
camp and sold its birthright for a
mess of pit? iron. (Applause I tie
war for this bill, but be wa-t not pre
c uded from do ng what he could to
modify, amend and pet fee it. He
was for revenue refo m because be
was a Democrat; not that kind of
Democrat who gathers hia inspiration
from tbe blast furnaces of Pennsyl
vania, or woolen mills of Massachu
setts. 1 he Democratic party hai
been the enemy of mn p ily, aud
when they were struck duwu (s struck
down they won d be), O" their rums,
it would live, its promises fulfilled,
its manhood asserted, its honor un
sullied j and it would receive, under
(he leadership of, him who led it now,
and who was as dauntless a champi
on as patriotism eve blessed and as
fearless a foe as corruption ever en
countered, the renewed fealty of the
people. (Applause) But if it locked
bands witb monopoly, the ..handwrit
ing was on the wall, for treachery
could never triumph. (Applause)
Mr. Henderson of Iowa, said t hat
the President had thrown the gaunt
let at the feet of protection and stood
boldly up as ; thechampion of free
trade. Ae an illu-tration of the

one between England and America,
and characterized he bill as a wicked
assault upon the industries of New

present tariff agitation alarmed New
England manufacturers, but they had
a fair reason for alarm. The New

Iu nomiiia ing our candidates for
the Supreme Court we should select
lawyers woo are c mspicuous for the
purity of their li7es, and for their
pre-eminent legal learning, and not
chiefly- because they may happen to
reside in some particular section of
the State If this proposition be
true (apd who will controvert it ?)
then our State convention Ought cer
tainly to nominate as one of its judi
cial candidates the distinguished pro
fessor of law at our btate University
the Hon. John Mauning, LL D.
He possesses in a pre-eminent degree
all the Qtialific ions that should be
required n a judge. A Christian gen
tleman of the highest character, be is
also a most learned, labo ious and
well equipped lawyer, whose eleva
tion to the bench would add to its
honor.
ASupremeCourt Just ceough to be
thoroughly familiar with the prac
t ce of the profession, . with
the statute laws and report
ed eases, and with the text
books. It can safely be asserted that
in these requisites Mr. Manning has
hardl.t an equal in the State; because
1. As a practising attorney for
thirty five years, with a very large
practice, be has become thoroughly
acquainted with every detail of the
practice.
, 2. As one of the three compilers
of- the Code he is familiar with al
our statute laws and the decisions of
tbe Supreme Court relating to them;
and
3. As a law instructor for twenty-
three years he is probably better
posted in the teit books and the fun
damental principles of the law than
aby other lawyer in the State.
All who know him will agree that,
among the distinguished gentlemen
whose names hare been suggested as
Justices of the Supreme Court, there
ia no more high-toned Christian gen
tleman, no. more learned lawyer, a- d
no trner or deserving man tban John
Manning ... ?
. Then why not nominate himT
