Tariff report flaws exposed in woollen goods assessment

The tariff commission's report is attacked as fraudulent and misleading. Woolen cloth duties show a proposed net increase of 262,866 dollars after projecting reductions for other wool goods, contradicting claimed overall cuts. The critique urges public scrutiny and demands accountability from Congress.

Call for a universal fog signal code and stricter ship duties

The piece argues for a clear global fog signal code to locate approaching vessels, blaming carelessness for many high sea collisions. It cites the Sultan Cimbria incident where misjudged lights may have caused a crash and urges enforcing U S law to indict officers for manslaughter if negligence endangers lives.

Weather, bets, and society jests in 1888 amusements

A collage of breezy notes from the era features barbed social quips about fashion failures such as satin hose and ruined gloves, jokes on weather prophets, operatic yearnings, and witty sketches of New York figures. It also lampoons politicians, lawyers, and city life with pithy anecdotes about bears, newspapers, skeletons in closets, and a Virginia governor offering a murder reward.
