SLOW WORK WITH THE TARIFF. The Speaker and Mr. Rogers Have Another Sparring Match. THE SUNDRY CIVIL BILL REPORT, —_ SENATE, The Senate met at 10 a.m., butacallof the roll disclosed the fact that there were only twenty-seven Senators present—sixteen less than a quorum. The sergeant-at-arms was directed to request the attendance of Senators, and by 10:20 a quorum having been obtained, business was proceeded with. Mr. Plumb offered a resolution (which was agreed to) calliug on the Secretary of the In- terior for copies of the correspondence be- tween his office and that of the commissioner of Indian affairs concerning the award of con- tracts for the supply of blaukets for the last fiscal year. THE TARIFF BILL. The tariff bill was taken up, the pending question being on Mr. Plumb’s amendment, of- fered Snturday, to paragraph 134, page 47, to reduce the additional duty on iron or steel hoops, cut to lengths for baling purposes, from two-tenths to one-teuth cent per pound. The amendment wes rejected—yeas 18, nays 26, ‘Tbree republicans—Ingalls, Paddock and Plumb—voted in the affirmative. Mr. McPherson moved to amend the para- grapb by making the duty on iron or steel hoops 50 per cent ad valorem, instead of 1 cent, 11-10 cents and 1 3-10 cents per pound, PROTECTION OF AGRICULTURAL FRODUCTS, Mr. Wilson (Iowa) replied to that portion of Mr. Vance’s speech of Saturday in which he ridiculed the ides of protecting agricultural products aud showed that it was not so delusive as represented, inasmuch as the importation of products of ine tarim—animals, hides, broad- stuffs, flux, flax and rape seed, hemp, hay, hops, taalt, wool, cotiou, rice aud {ruits—amounted in the last fiscal year to $82,471,000, WHY FARM LANDS HAVE DECKEASED IN VALUE. In reply toa question by Mr. Butler as to the cause of the diminution of value of farm lands in Ohio (said to be $20 an acre) Mr. Sherman Said that he knew every county in the state of Ohio, and that bis impression was that whereas there might be some diminution of the value of farm lands in Obio, as there was in New York, New England and almost everywhere, the cause of it was the competition from the west, It was utterly idle for farmers in the muddle states to attempt to compete with the Western states in any of the cereus, Mr, butler—Or even 1 raising wool. Bir. Sherman—No. We are increasing the production of wool in Ohio, though undeg very adverse circumstances. He went on to say ee While the value of farming Jands in Obio ha dimiuished within the last ten years, the aggre- ate value of real estate had increased largely. ‘The valuation of Cleveland had tripled; that of Columbus had doubled, and that of Cincinnati largely increased. TOWN VERSUS COUNTRY. Mr. Butler said that he admitted that cities had grown up at the expense of the country, aud that under tM protective theory about the home market the value of land ought to bave { increased instead of diminished. Mr, Voorhees quoted from an address of Gov. Foruker of Olio to_ the legislafare about four Years AKO to tho effect that iarm property in ‘Ohio was then from 25 to 50 per cont cheaper than it had been some ten years before. and he asked whether that was an evidence of the good effect of a high protective tariff on the farmers of the couutry. He declared that, on the contrary, under itv malign influence farm property had withered at least one-thirL PROGKESS DUE TO PROTECTION. Mr. Sherman admitted that Gov. Foraker's statement was, at the time it was made, sub- siautially true, but Gov. Foraker, he added, had not said that the depreciation in had Leen caused by the protecty the contrary it Was the projective sy had enabled Obio to repair the in faring property by building up manufacturing aud mining industries, Ohio had Leva ouce a purely agricultural state, now it was the third agricullural siate in the Union. In iree trade England farming lauds were not worth one-third of what they had been, and the farming indust wus utterly de- stroyed 1 almost every partof England, loss BLOW PROGRESS WITH THE TARIFF BILL, Mr, Sherman, leavine that eubject, went on to speak of the little progress that was bemg made with the bill, Nearly three weeks (he eid) liad been spent upon it, and not one-fifth of it had been disposed of. Unless Senators on the other side wou'd be satistied with one vote upon a question, and would then go right along, the Senate would have to continue in perpetual session, Ie did not wish to see any change in the rules of the Senate if it could be avoided. But there was aduty imposed un the majotity. 1t wa RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DELAY although it did not cause delay. Senators would havo to perevive as sensible men that some time or other the majority would have to tuke the responsibility of limiting debate, There must be some way found to get along with business, Ifthe other side could forego the neediess repetition of amendincnis and of yea aud nay votes Senators might soon seo Guglight, and soon Le able to go to their respective hom The bill bad passed the House of Representatives and had been considered by @ committee of the Senate, its general outline being on a scale of protective turiff—even of a high protective tariff. He- pubiican Senators do not deny that. It was a tariff that would protect American industries and build up nearly all the industries that could be employed in the country. It was a pretty high protective tariff; and there were some points in it on which be would be willing to yield. Stiilit has been reduced in several important particulars below the bill passed by tuo Seuato two years ago, At seemed to him that the Senate ought to make more progress with the bill. The re- publican side of the Senate seemed to be en- tirely satisfied with the bill, except here and there, Amendments rarely came from that oot. Vest suggested that it would be well for the Senator from Ohio dan some discipline to his own side of the chamber in reference to the consumption of time, A GOOD WORD FOR THE DEMOCRATS. Mr. Sherman disclaimed having made any distinction between the two sides of the cham-' ber. He felt bound to say that as aruole the democrats bad occupied but a fair proportion of time. Mr. Vest thought that that very fact ought to suggest an answer to what Mr. Sherman had said. If he found that the dominaat j party in the Senate (with the p ressure of manufacturing interests brought to them for the passage not able to restrain its mem- bers from discussion he certainly ought. not to criticise the action of democratic Senators, ‘hat Senator had said that the bill was acoept- able to his side of the chamber, The Record pes = Foose ap aber the fact. a other hand, most aggres- sive attacks made oe the bili had come from that side of chamber aud from a state that gave the largest ‘ity for the republican party in the late ‘The Record would algo show that » proportionate large number of democratic Senators (every time:the roli had been called) of republican Senators, They came every morn- | {ng at 10 and sat til 6, and he could not com- of Washington.

Democratic Senators intended to go through the bill just exactly as if there was no legislation bebina it or before it, It had to be analyzed and it would be analyzed before the debate was con- cluded. The Senator from Lowa (Mr. Wilson) had, this morning, given a conspicuous exam- ple of bringing in matters not pertinent to the pending question. DEPRECIATION OF FARM PROPERTY, The discussion having again turned on the depreciation of farming property, a statement was read by Mr, Vest as tosuch depreciation in some of the best farming counties in Pennsyl- vania, and Mr. Cameron remarked that, while the statement was correct, the tariff was not, in his opinion, the cause of it, Its cause was the demonetization of silver in 1878. Ever since that act the price of land and of farm pro- ducts had decreased. Since the passage of the silver bill prices had risen some 20 per cent, ‘4nd he believed that in = year or two the price of land in Pennsylvania would go up to its former figures, MR. VES 3 Mr. Vost expressed his belief that the re- monetization of silver would never increase the price of agricultural products in a healthy and permanent way until more markets were opened to the American farmer, and until the cost of his living was decreased. The three great elements of national wealth were agricul- ture, manufacture and commerce. ‘lwo of these elements of greatness had been absolutely — destroyed the United States, and the third hed been un- naturally increased. The pretense of protecting agriculture by imposing a duty upon the farm products of other countries was &@ monstrous fraud.

So far, eat eid, all is weil.” The first train of freight forwarde] from this city over the New York Central road since the trouble on that line occurred moved out of the yard at 65th street at 9:15 this am. The work of making up the train had been going on for an hour and a quarter previously, and the train was made up of forty-four cars under the direction of Yurd Master Mitchell, All the freigat shipped was of a perishable nature, and neither the preliminary work nor the actual forwarding was marked with any ex- citement or digiculiy. ‘The train is bound for Albany.

Every- where was posted the notice that no treight would be received there. All within the mammoth building were piled high with freight awaiting shipment and its roof covered, mass of stalled freight cars, A number of freight handlers lounged about, but there was little they could find to do that would give them even an sppeurance of activity. Here and there about the building at some of its numerous eutrances were trucks removing freight that had been received there last week or taking away freight that bad been sent here before the tie- up and which its owners had decided to send by some other road. The officials of the com- pany say that they have enough men to attend to the dispatching of all the freight they in- tend to send out from this city today, All the freight first to secure attention is that of 1 le churacter.
