and ho had finished bis remarks a vote eras taken on a motion made by Mr Windom to lay tho and amendments on the table Tho motion was lost bj a vote of 23 to 45 as follows In roman Democrats In Italic Independents in SHALL Bayard Butler Call Camdin rtr of SVest fair Gorman Hampton Johnston Logan yan Plumb Sewell staler Teller Vance liami and Allison Anthony Blair Cameron of of Concer DAVIS of Ferrj Frye Hale of Colorado of Jonai Jones of Florida Lamar McDIll ler of California Platt Rollins Sanders yer Shorman Vaa Wyok It Is known that many Senators voted against tho motion who are opposed to tho because they desired votes to be taken on the amendments yet the large majority was i great surprise to thoso who have for several days confidently predicted tho defeat of tho measure Tho greater part of Mr Sherman's speech was In opposition to tho amendments proposed by Mr Vest tha most important of which la one making it tory on tha national banks to taco tbo bonds Mr Sherman criticised both its con- struction nnd principle and said it the ances complained of under section 4 of the act of allows tho to surrender their circulation at will wera to bo tho remedy should be applied in an Independent to bo reported from tho on Finance amendment requiring the banks to keep third of their capital in United States bonds was opposed by Mr Sherman who said that somo of tbo largest banks in tho country had littlo or no circulation and the amendment if adopted would them out of existence Mr in discussing the silver question said tha subject was now in the hands of a Monetary Conference It was hoped that somo international agreement might bo reached Mr Plumb's proposition to reduce tho Treasury reserve to should bo considered in an independent as an amendment to tho Refunding it was out of Mr Sherman reviewed the history of the Ing legislation in tho States and Europe In reply to Mr appeal to let well enough tbo Ohio Senator defined well enough ns meaning that which is tho best for the try the passage of his Tho most interesting portion of Mr man's speech was bis statements regarding the reduction of taxation amd the re- vision of tho tariff Mr Morgan ed an explanation of Mr Sherman's views on these subjects and he gavo them very ly Ho said that Congress in his estimation would fail in its duty to tho people if taxes were not reduced at this or the next session Ho wished all internal except those on and tobacco ished A burden of about would be lifted were these taxes repealed The great subject of tho tariff he sold was not to be dealt with lightly Ho had leys that tho best commission to deal with tho subject was tbo commission mndo by the Constitution The tariff should be revised in tho same way that It was created 20 years ago when Mr Morrill framed the Mr Sherman pointed of tho irregularities in the present tariff The method of collecting sugar should be changed The duty on sugar alono ed a revenue ot about to the Government and tbo method of collecting this revenue was such that no honest man could tell what he pav The old ways of testing tho saccharine strength of sugar had been so completely disturbed by changes in tho process of manufacture that they were really testa of nothing but investigations had that sugar which under tho old standard test would have been admitted as No 7 possessed saccharine strength of more inan No 13 Tho fault was entirely iu tho tariff Congress had failed repeatedly to remedy it because the bills reported wore invariably loaded with riders to change I duties on other ar- ticles The Treasury Department to aid la detecting fraud had adopted the use of tno and since that ment was introduced thoro had been a cam of annually in the duties Any committee with tho information now in tha possession of Congress could frame a in throo days that would remedy tha defects In tbo law Mr Sherman said that he had always believed In tho doctrino of protection to can industry and labor That policy had built up the business Interests of this country It delighted bun to know that tho South was takine up idea New cotton mills being built Iu tho Southern States hor iron mines were being opened and her tries There la tho road to there 13 the road to prosperity In tho tie exclaimed with enthusiasm Ho said that while our industries there woro scores of articles which we should strike from the tariff list Ho desired the Senator from Alabama to discard his Democratic free trade theories and join in the good work Mr Morgan said that he believed in the old theory of building tho cotton mill close to tho gin and the saving thereby effected would movo tho necessity for high protection Mr Shorman continuing advised the tion of taxation to a point where tho surplus revenues would maintain tho ing fund required by law Returning to the question of tho tariff he declared that the present rates on iron and steel were When tho Morrill a law all the steel was imported and cost three times as much then as now Tho duty was im- posed in view of the condition of affairs 20 years Now processes of taro had since revolutionized tho trade A gentleman had told him yesterday that steel rails could be made now cheaper than iron rails The of tho protective system took advantage Mr Sherman said of such incongruities to show tho imperfections of the tariff In- stead of up the tariff as a whole he wished tha different defects corrected ill separate bills to bo pushed through Congress without allowing them to bo burdened with riders Ho favored a reduction of or in taxes as soon as possible A commission in his judgment could not do tho work Ho to the diminishing exports of the United States and the of tho balance of trado Ing against tha country and he wanted tho taxes reduced tho doht put in good shape and everything made secure against the of a depression following the prosperity of tho past few years Jlr Windom briefly replied saying that tho uncertainties of the alluded to by Mr Sherman wero tho strongest arguments in favor of keeping tho debt in its present shape where ID could be paid or not at a low rate of Interest at tha pleasure of tho Government In tho House to-day the consideration of the report of tho Committee on counts was resumed and a final vote was not reached until 3 O'clock In this report ths committee assignment of clerks to tees In of the committees clerks are

remarked that when he was on that committee ho dispensed flowers free hand but had no clerk He understood that Mr Cook bad decided that be would not perform this duty Mr McCook said ho had discovered that it was expected that he would distribute flowers for social and purposes and had decided that he was not n suitable person for the work Ho had therefore Introduced a transferring this duty to the agricultural department He added that ho had not asked for tde clerk which was assigned in tho committee's report but ho should support tho report although ho could get along without a clerk In the course of tho debate it was shown that the Democrats when con tho House had given clerks to a great many mental committees Tho Democrats led by Mr Holman interposed many objections anil secured two or

that year tho tax was increased to SO which equalized tho tax on cigars and manufactured tobacco but that In March 1879 tho tax on manufactured tobacco was re- from 24 cents per pound to 1C cents per

FEDERAL OFFICES THE WINNERS IN THE CONTEST AT CINCINNATI A BARREN FOR THE THE NETV HARDLY MEN TO THEIR MEN OUSTED AND ONE SHERMAN MAN AND TWO DOUBTFUL OKES APPOINTED CINCINNATI Jan three nati appointments sent to tho Senate to-day havo excited a degroo of interest out of all proportion to tho Importance of tho calces In political and at tho clubs little fa talked about Both of tho Republican factions aro claiming a victory in tho President's nominations Tho facts aro these: A well-organized and de- termined effort was begun by tho Stalwart leaders soon after Mr Arthur dent to secure an entirely now deal among tho holders of Government offices in Cincinnati They had enemies in office to punish and of the Stalwart typo to put forward and to use whon appointed In tho first part of this programme they have Tdo present appointees will loso their heads and among them Is Amos Smith Col- lector of Internal and best and most efficient party worker tho Republicans have had in city for many years His removal will bo an irreparable in- jury to tho Sherman and branch of tbe party who aro greatly In tho majority The Stalwarts bated him and are entitled to all tha credit of his removal But their victory la robbed of much of Its sweetness and nearly all of its prospective ad- vantages Cy tho refusal of the President to appoint to tho vacancies thus created tho men of their choice Two of tho now appointees are only a single degree more acceptable to tho Stalwarts tho Shorman men who go out and tho third Col for master is an out-and-out representative of the Sherman faction and was the one most bitterly opposed by tho Stalwarts in the list of candidates Tho situation is therefore Three man men have been ousted and in their places ono conspicuously strong Shorman man and two second cousins to appointed Tbo new appointees are Col for Assistant Treasurer Col for master and William H Taft for Collector of Internal Revenue Col was in tho Union Army and lav in Prison for several months Ho is ono oE proprietors of an ent and German daily no Is claimed by tbo Stalwarts Lut two days tho assembling of tho Chicago convention lio to THE correspondent for cation

of tho Lincoln Club William H Taft is a son of Taft who was eral under President Grant Ho Amos Smith os Collector of Internal Revenue and is at present Assistant Prosecuting Attorney of tho county Ho is less than years of aee but possesses city and integrity in a marked degree Ho comes from a Stalwart family and has sonic inclinations but for the creator ber of leaders in this city he has tle and ho has never affiliated with of the appointments are Whilo it is generally regretted that Collector Smith has been sacrificed thu nations much satisfaction GOVERNOR AGAINST CONGRESSMAN THE RUMPUS LI OVER THE CLAIMS OF TWO TO It THE POST OFFICE WILKESBARRE Jan city just now is agitated from centre to ence by n Post Office war almost equal In magnitude to tho battle of which tho bloody Queen tho virago of Wyoming was tho Heroine Tho pressing need of barro is two Post Offices ono of which should bo given to tho present Postmaster Mr lass Smith and tho other to his rival Mr Al Orr contest has already assumed tho proportions of a State fight tho Governor having thrown himself Into tho breach for Smith while Mr Orr is Congressman ton's man for tho position Mr Scranton comes from tho bustling city bearing his name iu tho Lackawanna Valloy about 18 or 20 miles away nnd is tho proprietor of tho Re- publican published them Tho friends of Smith him for his nomination and supported his rival tho lato Con in all Wright at thu least such is tho statement mado by Scranton's friends in this city who claim to know what was Ing on at tho time Not only that but they ignored him after his election and mado their application for direct to tho department at ashington Mr Scranton Is no novice in politics Being tho first lican Congressman from this district In many years ho naturally looked for that courtesy which a Representative should receive and tho conduct of Smith's simply made his advocacy of Orr all tho moro determined A few woeks ago it was Orr's pointment was about to bo mado Gov Hoyt was entreated to go to Washington and plead personally with President Arthur for Smith's retention Tho Governor accordingly to tbo President for a personal which has been granted and in tho tho tho nas been hung up and tho war goes on Every day of delay but adds to tho ness of the Factional fooling which this matter has engendered Prominent Republicans who have been friends are divided on subject and several delegations Lavo already been to tho capital In Mr Smith's interest Ono of these was led by Attorney-General Palmer Orr's backers imin Shoemaker one of the wealthiest men In tho Wadhams District At- torney Farnham and many others whose an- were numbered among tho old settlers They sav it is not a matter for the Governor to interfere In Ho has not lived in barro for several years his homo being at risbarg and if ho had boon in all tho time ho might bo Orr's stanchest porter instead of opposed to fight has been narrowed down between Gov Hoyt and Congressman and all tho in the State aro talking about it Thoro i somo talk of a by taking up a third person but thoso who arc burking Mr Scranton would regard that as a humiliating defeat for their Congressman and say they don't want it Smith's friends claim that Orr has not always been a machine Republican and his independence at times led him after strange gods but to this Orr replies that ty to tho Party does not consist in complete and abject subservience to an known here as tho ring the cardinal principle of which is to put each of tho members in office It Is no disparagement to tho members to sny that they uro all very pleasant gentlemen and have been well vided for so well in fact that it would seem tho port of prudence for Mr Orr to pay his initiation fee and apply for membership The principal drawback is tho fact that tho public do not toko very kindly to tho organization or its candidates and it is much easier to got ono of tbe latter appointed than elected to office It is clear that thero will ho no peace on tho until President Arthur either Smith or nuts Orr in office In any will be unhappy and if Con- gressman Scranton desires to restore harmony he will introduce a each of his constituents a Pest Office with a fat salary That seems to be the only feasible of cutting tho Gordian knot THE CONTEST IN BALTIMORE THE APPOINTMENTS LOOKED UPON A8 A VICTORY FOR THE CRESWELL BALTIMORE Jan new deal bad beon expected in the Federal offices in this city and therefore whon President Arthur to-day sent to tho Senate the name of Col Edwin H Webster of Harford County to bo Collector of this port la tho place of Col John L Thomas ho surprised no ono Collector Thomas gavo up tho fight for several weeks ago Col Webster who will him fa an man In many respects although not any too much of a Republican Ho has served In tho samo position Laving been pointed by Lincoln and continued by Johnson When Johnson wont astray Webster went with him and was a Democrat up to two years ago whon ho ran for Congress on tho Republican ticket in tho Second District and was In spito of his somewhat crooked political record ho is regarded as ono of tho leading men of tho State and the trust will bo safe in his hands Ho never sought the for himself but J A J Creswell it for him and to Mr in- fluence his appointment is due Yet Col ster Is not a man but Mr found in bim tho strongest candidate named and secured Webster's appointment to en bis own hold on Maryland politics Mr Gary's candidate J Morrison Harris was left far behind m tbo fight his record as a lican being too vulnerable to stand tho attacks made upon it Had Mr Gary named a bettor man hu might havo carried him through had lived This change therefore does not moan any improvement in the condition of Maryland Re- publicanism It merely means that tho long struggle between tho faction and the Thomas faction has resulted in a victory for tho former Tho better class of Republicans la tho State are
