THE TARIFF
DISCUSSED.
The Dtb&te Began With a
Somewhat D pres8ing
Influence-
NO DECISIVE STAND.
Ball Says the Populiit* Never Bellevtd ikst
the Ta iff was the Oaos, of Oar Dlffloal-
t'e.-B. Ow.lt to gome Kxt.nt on the
ffeltor. of the Eleotiea to Beatore Prot-
p.rltr and Oiv. Work to the Idle.
Washington, March 22—The first
day of the tariff debate In the house
was rather tame. The opening of the
debate was delaysd over two hoar* by
the fall reading of the bill, 162 pages,
and this to begin with bad a somewhat
depressing toflaenoe. Rtpnblloen
leaders Instated on tbla to avoid a pos-
sible reappearance In the future,
should oonsideratlon of the bill not be
oomplettd ander the five mlnate rale,
of claim that the bill bad not been
read In fall to the house, a thing
whioh happened In oases of both the
McKinley and Wilson bill. Only four
speeches were made at today’s session.
Dlngley, chairman of the ways and
means oommlttee, opened In an hour’s
spseoh for the majority, and Wheeler,
of Alabama, fired a broadside for the
opposition.
The plana of the Oemoorata had mli-
oarrlad. Ballsy, laadar of the opposi-
tion had daoidsd to oloss the debate,
and MoMIllln, of Tennessee, had baan
aelaotad to reply to Dlngley, bat at
the last moment It wis learned Mo-
MUIln had been nnabla to prspara
himself, owing to the UlnesB of hla
wife. The teak tharafore devolved on
Wheeler. The latter wae unprepared,
but nevertheless took the floor for an
boar.
Bsll, of Colorado, blaztd a path for
the Populists.
The only other speaker at today’s
session waa Hopkins, of Illinois, mem-
ber of the ways and means oommlttee.
Tomorrow It le probable that soma
of the silver followers will be heard.
Ball, Populist of Colorado, In hla
apaaoh said: "The Populist party has
not taken any decisive stand on the
tariff as a whole bsoauBe It never be
llevad that the tariff was the oenae of
onr difficulties. Nevertheless, 1 think
It oan ba aafaly atatad the Popnllata In
ganaral bellsva (hat while the govern-
ment derives Its prlnolpal rsvsnne
from an Import tax, snob proteotlon
ehonld be given all onr Industries as
will oover the differences between the
ooet of labor here Bnd abroad, without
discrimination against seotlon or in
dlvldnal, whether It or be prodnoee
raw material or mennfaotnred pro-
ducts. Bat the ^Pepallst party of
oonrse believes In requiring the wealth
of the ooantry to beer its share of the
burdens through a graduated lnoome
tax."
Bell dwelt to some extent on the
failure of the eleotlon to restore pros-,
parity nod give work to the Idle. He
polnUd out that ae a result of the col-
lapse of the steel rail pool, whtoh re-
duced Instead of lnoreased prioes,
thousands of men were given employ
meat and from this he argued If all
trusts could be destroyed and If free
competition be again placed In full
operation there would be a better
ohanoe for the unemployed then under
an tnoreasa In taxation designed to
foster and davelop trusts.
Bell said tbs difference to principle
between tbe Wilson bill Bnd tbls bill
wae tbe differences between tweedle
dee and tweedle dam. Ia tbe main
obangea In this bill were opposed to
the interests of tbe masses The
olalm that these duties were levied to
oover tbe differences In the oost of
labor, he said, was mare bypoorlsy.
Statisticians proved that six per otnt
ad valorem would oover tble difference
and eighteen per oent oover entire
labor cost of articles on tbe dutible
list In 1880. Tbe ad valorem In this
bill would approaob fifty per oent.
Tbe Senate.
Washington, Marob 22—The senate

To* P**o* Treaty.
Washington, Maroh 22—The Anglo-
American treaty advanced considera-
bly towards final ratification by the
•enata today, and long before the ex-
ecutive session dosed all amendments
recommended by the oommlttee on

out division. These amendments are:

2 Striking out the provision oon-
atltntlog members of the United States

MINORITY REPORT.
Bailer dives Kenaan* lor Their Opposition
to She Tee lit Bill.
Washington, Maroh 22—Bailey, of
Texas, presented to the house tonight
the minority report on the tariff bill.
The report la signed by all D*moorate
of the way* and means oommlttee and
gives tbe grounds of their opposition
to the bill.
After arraigning (be theory of pro-
tection as one of favoritism, Bailey
•eye: "It follows as a matter of
coarse that a bill based upon vlolous
principles must be Injurious in sffsot
and perhaps no effeot oould ba more
perololons than the extravagaoos
which tbs bill enoonragse. Tbs tabu-
lated statement embraced In tbe re-
port of the oommlttee shows that tbe
bill le expected to raise $113,000,000 In
revenues more then was oolleorsd In
cu toms duties during the last flroal
year; and ye’, as Bhown by the seme
report, the dtffsrenoe between govern
ment receipts and disbursements dur
log that year was only $26,000,000. It
Is well known that Importations last
year were smaller than nsoal owing to
the general depression that existed In
all circles, but even supposing Impor-
tations hereafter oan be kept at a level
with the Importations of 1896, ths bill
will oolleot from the people more than
$90,000 000 annually above the require-
ments of onr present extravagant ap
proprlatlons."

New Orleans, Maroh 22—The Times'
Democrat’s Eafanla, Ala , special says:
This olty waa swept by a cyclone
tbls morning, In which death and die
aster played a dreadful part.
The hourly record beoomee more ap-
palling. For several days there has
been a summer mildness all tbrongh
southwest Georgia and southeast Ala-
bama and ths ojuntry tributary to ths
Obattahooohte rtvsr. Yesterday the
thermometer went np to 80 and the air
was oppressive, With the oomlog of
night the skies were beolonded, and
rain began to fall about midnight
Toward morning the laden skies and
tnorsaslng wind told of a storm whioh
soon came along with a tsrrlflo and
wrenohlng foroe. Whan the storm
struck abutters, roofs, eto., gave way
and for two boars there wae terror
and desolation, whan tha oyolone
passed off to ths northwest, oonrslng
along ths Ohattahooohls valley.
Tbs reports soon oomlng In told of
Urrlble devastation. Ths town of
Blakely.In Georgia was almost llfed
oat of existence.
Ths wounded are: Ernest Wall one,
lag broken; Dudley Ktlgrew, both lags
broken; Prof. Covington, Internal In
jarlea, will die; Alien Carter, leg
biokeo; Esther Carter; Internal Inju-
ries, will dls; Ban MoMnrrsy, bead

•rt Childers, shoulder dislocated;
Simon Sanders, hart Internally, will
die; George Riley, arm brokeo, hart
Internally; Clara Thlgheh, arm*
broken, hart Internally, will die.
The eoanee around the bnlldlog were
most heart rending. The rain began
to ponr In torronta as soon as ths wind
passed off.
Along tho banks of the river np from
Appaleohloola there Is bat one etory,
death and deetrnotion. The storm
osms from ths Golf of Mtxloo, and,
entering the Appalaohloola valley,
trevet sed lte oonflnent streams to thslr
sonros.
The most shocking story of all was
from ArllogtoD, Early oonnty, Georgia,
it was about 8 o’olook when ths pnplls
of ths Arlington academy began to as
temble, and there were about fifty
present when Professor Covington,
notlotng the storm, oslled them In for
shelter. On and on came the storm,
with a roaring sound, Increasing until
It lifted two cabins across ths way Into
midair, crashing them Into splinters.
Tbs sight so affrighted ths children
they olnog pltlonsly to Professor
Welker and Professor Oovlngton, who
vatoly tried to quiet them. A crackling
noise was heard and shatters and
swinging doors were wrenohed from
their hinges. Then oame a twisting
and oareenlng and tbe north partition
gave way, falling with deadly effsot
upon the group of children dinging to
the professors.
The people of the town, regardless of
the wreckage of their own homes, ran
to the school, where they knew tha
ohtldren were, only to find many dead,
many others wounded and pinioned
beneath the debris; Professor Welker
had his arms and legs broken and oan
not llva through ths night.
Among the deed are. Ollle Parra-
more, Olende Roberts, Alice Patnam,
Albert Bntler, Willie MoMnrray, Kan

At points below VloksSnrg the rise

powerless to make e orop after the

Members of ths lood relief oom mit-
ts# have mors than they oan do In tbs
work of distributing of rations and
providing quarters for refugees. It
naa bean found necessary to telegraph
to eeoretery of war asking for enough
tents to eboommodate 2,000 people. If
Seoretary Alger accedes to this re-
quest-end there Is every reason to be-
lieve he will—the situation will be
greatly relieved.
The number ot refogees hea Increas-
ed so greatly that the relief oommlttee
find themselves unable to afford anlt-
able quarters. The feot thet there Is
so mnoh crowding la these pleoe where
lodging Is provided Is thought to be
