THE INDIAN APPROPRIATION BILIS On motion of Mr. Dawes, the Indian ‘appro- Priation bill was then taken up. House of Representatives. THE TARIFF BILL REPORTED. Mr. Morrison (Ill.), from the committee on ways and means, reported a bill to reduce tariff taxes and to modify the laws in relation to the collection of the revenue, and it was referred to the committee of the whole. Mr. McKinley (Ohio) presented the views of the minority of the committee, , Mr. O'Neill (Pa.) asked unanimous consent to resent in open House, instead of through the tition box, as required by the rules, a protest of manufacturers in every state of the Union, @mploying over 47,000, workmen, against any Feduction of the tariff; ‘Mr. Morrison (Iil,) ingtstea that the protest should be presented th: ugh the petition box. PROPOSED LABOR INVESTIGATION. °Mr. Morrison (I11.), from the committee on Tales, reported a resolution for the appointment of a select committee of seven members, to be appointed by the Speaker, to irvestigate the causes and extent of the disturbed conditions now existing in the relations between railroad exrporat ions engaged in inter-state commerce and their employes in the states of Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas and Texas. The gommittee shall have power to send for persons ‘and papers, to sit during the sessions of the ‘House, and to visit such places in those states 8 may be ne: in order to facilitate the investigation, Itshall report during the pres- gut session, with such recommendations as it amy deem proper to make, . Morrison stated that the bill which had recently ed the House known as the arpi- tration bill was inadequate in its provisions. The object of the pending resolution was to en- able oneree tolearn the facts of the case, so that it might perfect its legislation. STATES RIGHTS, Mr. Reagan (Tex.) contended that Congress had no more power to regulate questions aris- ing between common carriers and their hired laborers than questions arising between com- mon carriers and their butchers or grocers. These were local questions, and the fact that one of the parties might be engaged in inter- state commerce did not give Congress juristic- tion over the other, The question was whether democratic House of Representatives would deny and repudiate local self-government or whether it would assume that the states were no longer able to execute their functions, Mr. Morgan, (Miss.) thought that it was time that the House should dispel the illusion in the minds of laboring men—an {iilusion that relief Jnid in the body of this House. It was the duty of the House fees at once, in order that workingmen might stop and pause and con- sider. Mr. Powderly stood at'the head of & powerful organization, which he endeavored to govern, with good wisdom. He had been una- ble todoso because his subordinates had re- fused to acknowledge his authority. The work- ingmen said they wished to arbitrate, but what Was there to be arbitrated? Mr, Randall (Pa.) favored the measure, THE RESOLUTION ADOPTED.

In the Senate to-day Mr. Vance presented a Protest of residents and property owners against the laying of tracks for a street railway on C street, between Indiana avenue aud 6th Street northwest. Among the reasons urged against the building of the railway ure that it is not needed, there being already two roads within a couple of minutes’ walk of the local- ity; C street is very narrow and the tracks would greatly obstruct the roadway; the noise Of the cars would on Sunday disturb the con- regations ot ‘Trinity, the Metropolitan and the ‘irst Presbyterian churches, which are on or in close proximity to the line of the proposed. road. Among the thirty-seven signatures to the protest are the names of Mr. G. A. Lutz, ev. Byron Sunderland, Frank Baker, M. D., A. A. Marsteller, M. D.; Samuel Emery, Mrs. Wm. s, Todd, John G. Norris, W.

DIVERSE VIEWS OF THE MAJORITY AND MINOR- ITY OF THE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTE! The main features of the tariif bill reported to-day by the ways. and means committee nave been concisely stated in THESTAR, The report of the majority of the committee accompany- ing the bill says that the annual reduction of revenue, if it passes, will amount’ to about $24,060,000, The duties intended to be re- moved are those on articles used by our own manufacturers, which increase the cost of their productions, so as to make their Competition with foreign countries hopeless. The placing of ‘wood, salt, wool and hemp on the {ree list is for the benefit of home manufacturers. ‘The ques- tion of wool is discussed at length. “It ap- pears,” says the report, “that the attempt to make wool-growing profitable by the use of the taxing power has not been successtul, while the tax has been the great national hindrance to ‘the wool-manufacturing industry, as well as a most grievous burden upon all buyersof woolen clothing.” The bill proposes, a, say, to lessen the cost of shelter, food and clothing for the people, and at the same time to benefit domes- tic manufacturers.
