SINGLE-TAX JOHNSON ENTERS THE LISTS He Wants Rails Placed Upon the List of Articles Admitted Free. REPUBLICANS ATTACK HIS POSITION Dalzell and Boutelle Handle the Ohio Con- gressman Without Gloves—Sibley, Demo- crat, of Pennsylvania Denouuces the Wilson Bill severely, Jan -Almost the enti the house was spent in the cout ie debate on Mr. Burrows' au the existing duties on w of its defeat by a strict Was day i tion ment t with party v About an t son, the Ohio free trader and single offered his amendment to place rails on the free list. This led will pro prove 1o be one of the most interesting dis- cussions of the present debate. Mr. Johnson, democrat, of Ohio was recog- nized o offer his amendment, placing on th free list railway bars, made in steel, rails and girders, street punched iron or steel flat rails which, in the dutiable at 25 per cent. Jolnson Explains His Amend Mr. Johnson explained that his amend- ment included in paragraph 115, girders, cet rails specifically, so there could be no misunderstanding about that ciass of rails. That a steel rail pool existed which paid rail mills to close their wills and give them a mouopoly of this production was generally admitted. No revenve wouwid be produced from putting a duty of 25 per cent on them; the ways and means commiutee did not claim 1v would produce revenue, and he asked the house either to put steel rails on the free listor show a good reason for not doing so. Mr. Springer asked Mr. Johnson, who is himsclf a steel rail producer, whether plac Ing rails on the free list would drive rai manufacturers out of the business, to which the later replied 1t would not. Its only effect would be to reduce the profits of the mill owners. “Tuat’s what you aré here for, T suppose,” rposed Mr. Boutelle, sarcastically, *‘to reduce your profits.” “lam not here voting money into the pockets of my stockholders,” replied Mr. Johnson, amid applause. Your patriotism has an element of im- probability about it,” returned Mr. Bou- telle. Mr. Dalzell, republican, of Pittsburg then proceeded to attack Mr. Johuson. His proposition was to place rails on the free list and leave billets apd blooms, out of which they were manufactured, dutiable at 25 per cent. Was that just? The steel rail indus- try was the most splendid monument of pro- tection. Under its beneficent operation the price cf rails has gone down from §50 10 §25. “If the price went down here, what brought it down abroad?” asked Mr. John- son. What Has Made the Peice Low Here. ‘The inventive genius stimulated by the sstablishment of the industry here,” replied Mr., Dalzell. Mr. Johnson, he continued, sarcastically, sought 10 give strength to his plea for free rails on the ground he is himself » manufacturer. He soucht 1o give the im- pression he was in competition with the muls in the alleged trust. As a-matter of fact he only munufactured street railway ruils and he had a monopoly of that produc uion. [Laughter and applause.] “There are two uther firms who nake pet rails,” said Mr. Johuson, Two others?” retorted Mr. Dalzell con- temptuously. *“You are practically a monop- olist all the same.” Mr. Dalzell went on to say he had in his hands copies of the i03 patents issued to Moxham, the president of the Johnson com- pany. They gave him the most complete and despotic form of protection, yet from & hind that wall of protection he assumed the role of philanthropist and wanted to take the protection away from the producers of railroad rails who had Lo patents.

To » public the figures, it was nted out, would give late bidders an op- portunity 1o offer better terms than those of the earlier bidders It was said unofficially, however, that the &0,000,000 offer was at the minimum premium of §117.228. There is said to be no likelihood of the acceptance of this or any similar offer, as it is contrary tc the secretary's desire, which is 10 make the loan a popular one, 10 which the public generally may subscribe. On this theory it is proposed to encourage offers for small | lots from ali sections of the country. rather han to have the entire loan taken by a few dealers in large blocks. The idea naturally includes the hope that 1 denominations will be talken in prefercnce to the larger ones. This, of course, would involve the issue of a great many more bonds. it is believed at the Treasury department, from orders already received, that the total offering will aggregate nearly £200.000.000, and that the price will reach §120, making the bonds practically bear but 21, per cent interest. The issue for the present will be confined to denominations of &, £100 and $1,000 of coupon bonds, and 30, §100, $1,000 and &1 000 of registered bonds. In case it is decmed advisable,arrangements will be made for §00 coupons and §5,000 reistered bonds. Plutes Are All Ready. The plates for the new bonds were made at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing this spring by order of ex-Secretary Foster, in anticipation of an issue of bouds during his administration, but the plan fog their 1ssue was finally disapproved vy Président Harrison. The ew issue of bonds will be redeemable in gold. Estimates made to Comptrolle Eckels by national banks show the hational banks of New York City alone held more gold than the treasury of the United States, or rather than it contaius free gold. In the figures given gold certificates are in- cluded in the gold. The returns in the prin- cipal cities show: New.

A report reached the capitol toaay that the supreme court of the United States had enjoined the issue of bonds _as proposed by the secretary. Clerk McKenny, when in- formed of it, said: “It's a fake, pure and simple. There 1s ot » shadow of basis for such a story.” Secretary Carlisle's proposed sale of bonds nas attracted widespread attention in con- gressional circles. Among members of the house comment on the secretary’s action differs greatly. Leading members of the Jjudiciary committee are disposed to criticise the secretary’s action, in view of the fact thay the senate has before it a resolution designed to pravent the issue of bonds. To accomplish the latter object it would be necessary to obtain additional legislation. WILL OPPOSE A BOND ISSUE, Sitver Men Intend to Hold Out for Silver Bullien Colnage.

Queen Liliuokalani is not only almost {riendless, bur=he is financially bankrupt and could not raise an ar in Canada or anywhere else to fight the provisional government. She cannot be restored except by the armed assistance and permaunent protection of a strong nation, and from the situation of affairs at Honolulu when I left I have every reason to believe the provisional administration will re- n in power. Otherwise, it will have to be ulled down by some fellow that is a bigger than President Dole. This talk of the queen recruiting the mounted police of Canada to be sent to Hawaii 10 fight_for ber restoration is all poppycock.
