Higher Tariff Suggested by Treasury Figures in Exports and Imports
Senator argues that Treasury data show a higher tariff could be imposed on cotton goods while not needing to remove the duty on hides. He discusses the nine month import/export totals, calls for a maximum and minimum rate system, and notes rising imports of cotton manufactures and rail traffic, with no pressing need for tariff reductions. He cites France and Germany as examples of impact from maximum rates and stresses maintaining prosperity if the tariff remains stable.

Col Tom Davis Fights West Virginia Nomination Clash
The Second West Virginia district scene heats as Col Tom Davis faces party doubts over GOP backing while his ex-Senator brother Henry G Davis and Mountaineer James B. Lakin vie for support. Strong local backing for Davis contrasts with Democratic graft accusations and Elkins family loyalty to the Republican cause. Political tensions span Martinsburg to Grafton as Indiana’s First District eyes a separate contest. The Shah of Persia heads to Europe on a related dispatch.

Refuge to America urged amid immigrant surge
New York May 7 Edward Lauterbach told the Home for Aged and Infirm Hebrews annual meeting that 90000 Russian Hebrews plan emigration to the United States as tyranny and persecution drive them to freedom. He warned charity workers the influx will challenge care resources and urged readiness for thousands arriving this spring through steerage. The day saw record quarantine passes with 1208 foreigners admitted in twelve hours on several ships including the Hamburg American Line and Pretoria, signaling a likely peak in arrivals this year.
