THE VER DICT FOR MISS POLL A R D
Hreeklnridire and Ills Attorneys Make Ap
plication for New Trial.
Washinotox April lb.--Early this"
morning the counsel for Colonel Breck
inridge were making necessary ar
rangements in filing application for a
new trial, and the probabilities are that
thai sensation of the past six weeks will
hold the boards again, and in the near
future at that. There is naturally a'
difference of opinion as to the verdict
granting Miss Pollard damage in the
amount of 815,000, but in the hotel lob
bies and on the streets can be heard
many expressions of approval. As to
the prophecies regarding: the finding
of the jury, "I told you so' is a popular
expression. With the exception of the
sad demise of senator Vance, of North
Carolina, the matter was the absorbing
topic in legislative circles yesterday,
iind while his colleagues in the house
are reticent in expressing au opinion,
it is no open secret that the defendant
in this case has lost his magnetism
among his associates, many of whom
were cumbered among his strongest
friends.
The manner In which the jury ar
rived at the amount of damages pro-
Sosed was unique, to say the least,
ne of the jurors was for allowing the
plaintiff the full amount asked for,
another the nominal sum of 1 cent.
Others ranging from 810.000 to $40,000.
The amount as rendered $15,000, was
the result of adding the entire amounts
and dividing by twelve.

PROTECTION ; A FAILURE.
Tba McKlnley Theory Based Upon a Dla
mater Producing Hyatea .
It is interesting to note that while
the United States is engaged hf the
attempt to shake off the incubus of the
McKinley law;"' all Europe is in "an
economic ferment," as some writer has
phrased it It is well known that all
theprincipal nations of the continent
have high protective tariffs. According
to the doctrines which have dominated
our legislation ince 1801 they ought all
to be happy.
On the contrary, they are all un
happy. France is giving another turn
to the screw, showing that the tariff of
1891 has not brought about thebless
ings expected Quite the reverse. The
chamber of commerce at Marseilles de
clares that since its adoption there have
been a constant reduction of commer
cial operations, a lack of new enter
prises, a suppression of many that pre
viously existed, that no new factories
are building, that these burned down
are not replaced, that the nurabcrof idle
ships grows larger every day; in si ort,
that there has beeu a change for the
worse i:i foreign cemmerec, attended
by axslmilar condition in rgriculture
and 'internal commerce. The remedy
now proposed is a still higher tariff,
another turn of the screw, an expe
dient cvr.iirlT io ujravato tl.c evils
nowprv;ii'r.7.
In Italy there is vhars. Uprisings
have occurred to rcittv the outrageous
taxes o:i th necessaries of life, and
thcs have to be put down by military
force. At the same time thorei is a de
ficiency ia the revenue, and while it is
proposed to reduce expenditures the
proposed economies are admitted to be
insullicient to avoid a deficit. New
taxes are proposed, to be levied upon a
people already exhausted bjr excessive
taxation.
Fifteen years ago Germany entered
upon the enterprise of making tbe peo
ple happy by protective taxes. This
was largvly in the interest of agricul
ture, which demanded to be shielded
from tbe c-urse of cheap food. Tbe sys
tem ran its u:ual course. It did not
answer expectations, and its advocates
said it was not hih enough. So in 185
rates were put up again. Two years
later it was thought necessary to make
a farther increase.
These constantly augmenting im
posts on the necessaries of life have
caused great distress among tho poor of
German. But what cCect have they
had upon agriculture? For answer let
us turn to the recent speech of Dr.
Miquel, in the.reicjhstag. lie has been
counted on in some rjuurters as an op
cipponenl of the treaty with Russia, as
he is known to bo iu sympathy with
the agrarians. He said that the main
talf of the Prussian jrovcrnnient for
the next f.-w year , u.ttst b- to devise
effectual assistance for agriculture. In
spite of this he favored the treaty. "In
any caw," he adtled. "the treaty can
not render the eon Jili.m of husbandry
any worse than it is."
Such is the efxec:t of fifteen years of
high protection upon German agricul
ture. Even in the opinion of its warm
est friends its condition cannot be nny
worse. This is but a repetition of the
experience of the United States. We
have had a continued demand for high
er rates, and they have been advanced
from time to time. The McKinley bill
went to the extreme of high protection,
and what is to-day the condition of our
industries? According to the state
ments of the parties interested they
were never worse. They are waiting
for the repeal of the McKinley act that
they may have a chance to revive.
It is alleged, of course, that business
depression U due to the prospective re
duction of the duties. To what then
is it due in Italy, where there Li a
prospect of an increase? To what is it
due in France, where an increase has
fust been made? i There Ls no fear of
tar ill reform in France, tut there is a
paralysis of industry and trade. To
what shall we attribute the t'.ej)re-sio:i
in Germany, where agriculture, its
chief beneficiary, is admitted to be in
so desperate a condition that no com
mercial treaty can make it worse? The
limit has been reached in putting up
duties, both in Germany and the United
Stales, but the expected blessings have
refused to materialize.
There is a tU-cp philosophy underly
ing this economTc ferment" that pre
vails in all protective countries. Tho
theory of creating prosperity by high
taxes is breaking down. Protection has
been tried and found wanting. Louss
