What He Says About His Conferences With Members of the Senate Finance Committee. Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle has authorized the following statement in reply to an inquiry as to whether it were true that he had taken part in the conferences which it has been said were being held for the purpose of agreeing upon certain amendments to the pending tariff bill: “I have had no conference upoa this sub- ject with anybody, except the democratic members of the Senate committee on fi- nence, and therefore cannot state of my own personal knowledge what has occurred in other confererces that may have taken Place. It is true that an effort ts being made to agree upon such changes in the pending bill as will secure for it the united and active support of all the democrats in the Senate. The indications now are that this support can and will be secured with- out making radical changes in the rates of duty, or material alterations in the form of structure of the tariff schedules as they were passed by the House of Represen- tatives. In fact, I regard most of the changes now under consideration as quite unimportant, while the remainder are not of such a character as substantially to af- fect the merits of the bill as a measure for the reformation of the worst features of existing legislation upon the subject. I do not think we ought to permit differences of opinion upon mere matters of detail, or in regard to small increases or reductions of rates in the bill, as it now stands, to prevent the redemption of our pledges to the people, and therefore I am in favor of securing, if possible, without any surrender of principle and without abandoning any part of the democratic policy of tariff re. form, such mutual concessions upon these points as will consolidate our strength and pass the measure at the earliest possible “So far as the proposed amendments re- late to duties upon important articles of consumption now subject to duty, the rates suggested as a basis for adjustment are all mach lower than in the present law, while there are only a few instances in which they are higher than in the bill re- ported by the Senate committ “By far the most important single article upon which a change of duty is now pro- posed is sugar, raw and refined, and it is strenuously contended by persons inverest- ed in the production of this article that the specific rates aiready in the bill, as re- ported by the Senate committee, are high- er than the ad valorem rates which it is now proposed to insert. Whether this is correct or not depends upon the price of sugar in the foreign markets from time to time, and therefore it is not possible to make an exactly accurate statement upon the subject; but I am satisfied that the difference, if any, between the specific rates heretofore proposed and the ad va- lorem rate now under consideration, is so small as to be of no material consequence either way. At any rate I think the dif- ferences of opinion upon this question, which have always been troublesome and vexatious, should not be allowed to defeat the passage of the tariff bill, and I be- Neve this is the opinion of all intelligent und sincere advocates of revenue reforin. “The repeal of the McKinley act and the substitution of a more just and equitable measure in its place are of vital impor- tance to the prosperity of the country, and the people have a right to expect that all who are really in favor of a reductian of tariff taxation will make such reasonable concessions to each other's views as will certainly accomplish these results. If the country is to wait for tariff reform until a measure is devised which is entirely ac- ceptable in all its parts to every Senator and Representative whose vote is necessary to pass it our promises will never be kept.” The Income Tax. “Are any changes proposed in that part of the bill which relates to the income tax?” was asked. It is well known,” said the Secretary, “that there has been from the beginning considerable opposition to the proposed income tax, even among those who have voted for and supported the bill with that feature in it. Much of this opposition has been based upon the provisions of the bill which prescribe the methods of ascertain- ing and collecting the tax, some of which are alleged to be arbitrary and inquisitorial. In my opinion, many of these objectiona- ble provisions ought to be and can be safe- ly omitted from the bill, and other changes can*be made which the advocates of an in- come tax can consistently accept and which will at the same time remove the principal objections of its opponents and secure their support for the bill. This method of secur- ing revenue has never before been resorted to by the government of the United States except in time of war, when it was abso- lutely necessary to utilize every means within its reach, and there are many pa- triotic citizens who are not satisfied that its adoption as a permanent part of our system is justiflable in time of peace when no great emergency exists. This view of ne subject could be fairly met, I think, by Hmiting the operation of the law to a reasonable period—say five years—so that its effect upon the country can be thorough- ly tested, leaving the people to decide here- | after, in the light of the experience thus acquired, whether it shall be continued or expire by its own terms. re-enact can be promptly exercised if the majority of the people approve the meas- ure.” ————_—_+ e+ —___ TENURE OF OFFICE. The Gaddis Injunction Against Secre- tary Carlisle Denied. Although Judge Bradley on Saturday dis- missed the petition of Eugene E. Gaddis for 4 writ of mandamus against Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle, as stated in The Star, the judge intimated that only a strict construction of the law influenced him to do so. It was late in the afternoon when Mr. Beall, representing the petitioner, concluded his argument. Judge Bradley then in- formed Assistant Attorney General Whit- ney that he did not care to hear any reply on behalf of Secretary Carlisle. He said that it was needless to say that his sympathies were naturally with the petitioner. He had no doubt that he had been a most efficient clerk, and it appeared beyond peradventure that he was removed at the instigation of the register of the treasury, Tillman, to make room for another. Removed, too, said Judge Bradley, because he was not a democrat, or because he would not say that he would become one. But, notwithstanding all that, it seeemed, unfortunately so, that all such employes as the petitioner held office at the mercy of the heads of the ex- ecutive departments. That is, there had been, at least since the administration of Andrew Jackson, in the executive officers the power to remove inferior officers from oifice. Hence, the only question at issue was, Had the civil service laws and regula- tions removed that right of removal? The Right of Removal. Discussing those laws and regulations at some length, Judge Bradley remarked that, while they regulated appointments and sought to prevent unwarranted removals, it appeared that the laws and regulations did not apply to the tenure of office of the pe- titioner and like inferior employes in the ex- ecutive departments. Had Congress tn- tended that no man should be removed for any political belief or because of a refusal to make political contributions, it was the easiest thing in the world for it to have said so, but it seemed that it had failed to do so. It seemed clear to him, said Judge Bradley, that Congress had not really stricted the right of remov While it was much more difficult ot get into office, it was as easy 4s ever to get out, and beyond that it appeared that the law for the most part an abortive one. Judge Bradley concluded by saying that it was perfectly clear to him that he was without power in the present case. The motion to quash the Secretary’s answer would, therefore, have to be overruled, and the petition for the writ of mandamus dis- taissed. Mr. Beall at once noted an appeal, stating that the case would carried to the court of last resort. —_— Will of J Webster. The will of the late John Webster has been filed with the register.

Mr. Geo. E. Emmons, the vice president of the Georgetown and Tenleytown Railroad Company, is now acting in the capacity of president, Mr. Wilson Offutt having re- signed that office, owing to his inability to give it the proper attention through the pressure of private business. He will, how- ever, act with Mr. Emmons and Dr. Ritchie, who have been selected as an executive committee to assist in the management of the road. For some time there has, been considerable talk relative to the consolida- tion of the Georgetown and ‘Tenleytown line with the upper or Bethesda road, and yesterday the consolidation went into ef- fect. It was brought about by Messrs, John E. Beall and Spencer Watkins, who control the Bethesda hne and are directors in the lower road. The northern parties who have- been “dickering” for a controlling amount of stock in the Georgetown and Tenleytown road have not yet accomplished anything definitely, though it is stated that the deal may shortly be consummated. Two thou- sand and one shares will have to be pur- | chased in order to control the par value of the stock is Value from $2 to $35, Mr. Ed, Watkins has been tendered the position of president of the Georgetown and Tenleytown road, but has refused to accept it. It is said’ that both the Bethesda and Glen Echo lines are mixed up in the proposed deal. Building Association Election. The directors of the Citizens’ Equitable Building Association have elected the fol- lowing officers to serve the ensuing year: Thomas J. Stanton, J. W. Thomas and D. j3.

It has now been practically settled by the leaders of the Cumberland miners that there will be no strike in that region, as has been feared. The action of the miners in adjacent coal fields will have no effect upon them whatever. Tonight the Rev. Percy M.
