C, Oct. 3. Special Your correspondent has made eomc inquiries concerning the general policy of the ways and means committee, and is able to state that the new law as it comes from the committee will be a great disappointment to the extreme tariff re formers of the Democratic party and will be much more moderate and conserva tive than the protection wing of that party has dared to hope. Inside in forma tion is to the effect that Chairman Wil son and his colleagues upou the com mittee hive decided to make tariff changes so moderate and cautious as to satisfy the business interests and manu facturers that it is not the policy of the Democratic party to injure them ors'.rike them down. Disappointment Inevitable:. As soon as a tariff bill of this descrip tion comes from the committee there will be an outburst ol indignation from those who favor radical tariff reform, and who interpret the result of last year's election to be that thecountry demandsdecp cuts all along the protection line. On the other hand, a moderate and conserva tive bill will commend itself to the east ern wine of the Democratic party, and also to Republicans and Independents. Chairman Wilson, it is distinctly under stood, works in entire sympathy with I'resiaent (.leveianu ami secretary car- lisle. If the times had been normal, M r. Cleveland would have advised and used lus influence to secure more radical ac tion. But in view of what has occurred n tlie country during the past six months the I'resitlcnt has became con vinced that this is an inopportune time to effect radical tariff reform. Is Mr. Cleveland's Opinion Cbani;- Inil? Furthermore, there are whispers that Mr. Cleveland has to some extent changed his views upon the tariff qucs tion since he was before in the White House. We hear that Mr. Clevil ind lias become a good deal such a tariff reformer as the late Samuel J. K imlall was. In other words, Mr. Cleveland now believes in limited protection which docs not en courage monopoly or cater to greed, but which still protects. 1 hose Democrats wlin expect to see the protective principle abandoned in tlie new bill and a revenue tarill put in its place are doomed to experience bitter disappointment. The bill will contain nothing ol the sort. A Compromise on Kuicar. Your correspondent has the best ol reasons (or believing that the new bill will be the old McKiuley bill over again. with a few more raw materials and small cuts and shadings here and there throughout I he schedules. It will be a Tlie Hearing; Was II -fore The Finance Committee Mavlnir Tlie Nomination lu Charge to Make n Report Thereon. Washington, Oct. 4. The contest between Senators Ransom and Vance over the nomination of Collector of In ternal revenue for the district of North Carolina broke out afresh yesterday evening in the senate committee on finance, which has charge of such nomi nations, and of which committee Mr. Vance is a member. Almost the cutirc time of the com mittee was consumed in trying the dis cussion of this ense, and nothing defi nite was accomplished; Mr. lilias was brought before the committee and him self made a statement, and when the committee adjourned, a sub-committee consisting of Mr. Vance and Mr. Joins of Arkansas, remained to continue the discussion. A lull report ol an that Mr. lvlias bad to say was made br a stenograper, and this, in connection with some voluminous documentary evidence, will be laid betore the committee at its next meeting. 1 he ('resident has nominated to Me postmasters In North Carolina W.

Gorman's Work. For several weeks Senator Gornmn bas not appeared on the surface except wbcu he had his tilt witu Mr. U'olcott !?o far as the ordinary observer could s.c, he was doing nothing. Hut Mr. Gorman has been at work, and successfully, too, as the champion of compromise, having lor his argument the threatened disrup tion of the Democratic partv in case one side or the other of this battle should lose its all. While Mr. Gorman does not sbowhis band until the times comes. he is always alert, active and full ot purpose. lhat moment is now here, ami Air Gorman is at the lront. i'assage ot a bill that will be on the whole satisfactory to the country, and at the same time make some concession to the silver pro ducing states and avert the disaster which hangs over them, will be a great triumph lor the leadership ot Air. t.or man in the Democratic parly. His friends think it will make him the Icmo cratic nominee three years hence. Vigorous dentaor Vorlit eNj Une reason way tnc plan to use tire Vice-President in forcing a vote never amounted to auytbing was the fierce op position thereto of Senator Vorhees, the repeal leader. Mr. Vorhees denounced the plan in language that was more pic turcsque than that which he usually em ploys. "No one but a miserable whelp of a plutocrat would ever think of such a thing," said Mr. Vorhees. No one but a besotted, selfish moneybags would ever propose that the vice-! resident of the I'dited Stntts purge himself and override the traditions and liberties ot !...

The English coal fam ine has assumed the proportions of a national calamity. The suffering among the strikers themselves is appalling. Thousands are starving in the Midlands The commercial effects already are vcrv severe. Man; trains nave stopped run ning on tbe railroads. The receipts for the past two months have declined $5.0(10,000. The retail price ot coal is now about $10 a ton, and vet the min er's Federation has again voted not to yield. the decision toailowtlicmeu to return at the did rate of wages wherever possi ble will open some new mines, but will also contribute to the ultimate defeat of the stikers. It is high time that Amer ica took advantage of the situation. No coal comes to England from the Conti nent, on account ot the strikes there, hvery cargo of bit uminous coal sent here from America within the next month. even if the strike immediately collapses, will nav a big profit. Hut dreadful as the distress among the locked-otit and striking rollieisis, the latter are far overshadowed in numbers by the operatives in other industries now thrown out of work by the closing of mills, furnaces, factories and railway shops. General paralysis of manufact uring is costing the country more mil lions weekly than anyone dares to think t. It is co mi n on place to say that nothing like such miscrv unit disaster lias ever been known before in England. There s no paralltrlor it any where save, per haps, m some widespread phase ot de vastation by war. Mobile Was Hard Hit. Bat Has cone to 'Work Clearluie I'P tlie Wreck Mo Coramuulcatlon to New Orleans Hod leu Washed Ashore. New Oki-eans. Oct. 4. Special. The loss of life on Grand Isle from tbe storm is placed at 250, a total loss of life to the number of 300. It will be days before communication between here and Mobile is resumed. The cyclone destroyed Hogan, Ga. Bodies are being washed ashore on tbe Louisiana and Mississippi coast, sliow- ng that the number of sea wrecks were greater than first reported. Moini.K, Ala., Oct. 4. The details of the storm which broke with such a fury over the gulf coast Monday morning and raged with increasing fury for over six hours are just beginning to come in, and the indications are that the loss of ife in the lowlands east of the city has been yery great. The inundated portion of the city early presented its usual animated appearance yesterday and the work of cleaning out the muddy sediment from the stores, deposited by the receding waters, aud the debris was pushed from the streets with energy and vigor. The beautiful shell road which wound along the western shore of the Mobile bay for a distance of nine miles through glades of moss festooned magnolias is almost a total wreck. Communication direct between Mobile and New Orleans by rail and wire has been totally cut off and will probably not be resumed for weeks to come. At various towns along the route of the storm 12 churches were wrecked, five of them being located at Grand Bay. In Scrnnton and at East I'ascagoula, four miles distant on the sound, houses were blown down, stores flooded and stocks damaded, while at I'ascagoula, which is the port ot eatrv, the entire beach is said to have been wrecked. The loss of life is reported to have been very great. It will be some days before the lull extent ot the damage wrought will be known: but it is (cared here the grand total will cause to pale into insignifi cance the number of deaths reported from the storm which recently devasta ted the Atlantic coast. There is no doubt that the damage will reach at least a quarter of a million dollars. This is a very conservativeesti- matc and may be largely exceeded. l'ENSACOi-A. Oct. 4. The most destrue tive storm that I'ensacola has exper ienced in 20 years began at G o'clock Monday morning and raged with in creasing furv until a late hour yesterday, 1 he raiu tell in torrents and was swept in blinding sheets through the streets. No loss of life has been reported, but upon every street uprooted trees, broken leuces and rootless buildings testily the storm's force. TII.I.MAN'8 LtTEST SCHKJII-:.
