McKinley tariff bill shifts to free list on hides and sugar
The Ways and Means Committee report leans toward a revised tariff bill favoring free hides and sugar with a two cent bounty per pound for domestic sugar. Western Republicans back freer sugar while resisting some changes, and Eastern lawmakers push reciprocity. The measure is a political compromise likely to pass with concessions from both sides.

Paris Factories Use Contract Bidding System
In Paris factories foremen bid for jobs and hire own crews at sixteen cents an hour, with factory owners guaranteeing twenty cents and offering one third for underbidding. This system pressures foremen to cut wages to boost profit, raising concerns about labor practices. Also noted is growing attention to the Great Auk due to price trends in skins and eggs, with the species near extinction and few specimens remaining, per Leonhard Steineger.
