A Demand Made For Changes In Many
Important Particulars.

VIEWS OF MR. NEWLANDS.:

. edgment of the club’s greetings.

Him \Vill Not Oppose Tariff Legis-
lation—Mr. Bryan Approves of
Permanent Silver Clubs‘.

 

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. iii—At the session
of the farmers’ national congress the fol-
lowing committee was appointed to present
to congress the memorial of the farmers’
congress under course of preparation:
Messrs. B. F. Clayton of Iowa, T. J.
Clardy of Kentucky, W. B. Powell of
Pennsylvania and William Lawrence of
Ohio. The memorial, which will be
adopted without change, is written by
J udge Lawrence, chairman of the commit-
tee. The memorial covers the whole sub-

ject of protective duties. Among the prod:

ucts where such duties are to be required
are cotton, hemp, flax, wheat, corn, barley,
oats, potatoes, hops, dairy products, gar-
den vegetables, poultry, eggs, live stock
for food, many kinds of tobacco, apples and
other orchard fruit. As to sugar, wool
and rice, which the American farmer can-
not sufiiciently produce to supply all our
needs, the duties, the committee declare,
should not be prohibitory, but they should
be amply protective, so that in due time we
shall be enabled to supply all. The me-
morial quotes statistics to show the eifects
of the wool act of 1894, and it recommends
that congressxshall enact the wool tariff
law agreed upon in December last by
the National Woolgrowers’ association at
Washington. ' '

The memorial further says that the

_ Djngley tariff bill now pending in the sen-

ate unjustly discriminates in favor of the
wool manufacturers and against wool-
growers. It insists that'if the Dingle‘y bill

is-to be passed it shall be amended in four ,

particulars -— to provide, first, that the
starting clause in the act of 1890 shall not
be applicable to the bill. It quotes from
the address of President Clayton of the
cgngress the statistics which he gave show-
ing the operation of the Wilson tariff bill
as compared with the 'McKinley bill of
1890. It then says that in order to give
efi'ect to the policy of protection three
things are to be observed — first, that
American farmers can supply nearly all
farm products in sufiicient amounts to
meet the needs of the American people;
second, that as to farm products, there can
be no combination or monopOly to exact
exorbitant prices; third, it results from
those facts that as to such farm products

the duties should be such as to secure to

American farmers the whole market.

Congressman Newlands’ Plan.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 13.-—Congress-
man Newlands of Nevada, temporary
chairman of the St. Louis Silver party con-
vention, talked to a Chronicle reporter with
reference to the policy which should con-
trol the silver men from the mining states
during the coming session. Mr. Newlands
said:

“I believe that we should accept the
verdict of the country. The Republican
party claimed protection and the Demo-
cratic party silver to be the paramount is-
sue. The people have declared in favor of
protection and have given the Republican
party a contract for the restoration of pros-
perity. It should be allowed to carry out
any reasonable tariff policy without ob-
struction. If it brings prosperity, we will
be content; if it does not, we will all know
some other remedy is required, and by the
process of elimination will come down to
the only radical cure—namely, the full res-
toration of silver as a money metal.

“The people have spoken and have de-
clared for protection, and I do not think
any obstruction should be opposed to the
popular will. Let tariff legislation be en-
acted immediately, and we will have a
chanceat the next congressional election,
and, if not then, at the next presidential
election, to test the sentiment of the coun-
try on the silver question unembarrassed
by tariff.”

. “What form should the proposed tariif
legislation take?”

“Largely protection of the natural prod
nets and raw material-s of the south and
west, such as lumber, wool, lead, borax,
soda, etc.

“These industries have suffered serious-
ly from the Wilson bill, and the tariff bill
should be so framed as not to confine its
benefits mainly to the eastern states.”

His Idea of the Tariff.

“Do you think tariff legislation will
give relief?”

“It will give some relief, but not to the
extent expected. Free trade would inflict
greater injury upon this country than any
other, because we have farther to fall. A
general reduction in wages would bring
about readjustments. of values that would
be destructive to the property owners, pro-
ducers and debtors. We need, therefore, a
tariff wall to protect us against the prod
nets of cheaper labor elsewhere. The pro-
tective measure which will guard us
against the cheap labor of gold standard
countries must be the tarifi‘. The protect-
ive measure which will protect us against
the existing agricultural competition and
the threatened manufacturing competition
of silver countries must be the legislation

which will restore the old relative value of
silver and gold. Such a law would be
equivalent to a tariff of 100 per cent upon
the products of silver countries, for it
would increase to that extentthe gold cost
of such products. ”

“I believe that the true policy of the
country is combined tariff and silver legis-
lation, the one protecting us against Eu-
rope, the other against Asia.”

“Do you think there is any chance of an
international arrangement? ’ ’

“Not much, if it is confined, as the Re-
publican platform declares, to the leading

_ commercial nations—England, France and
Germany—which also are creditor nations.
I do not think that creditor classes, con-
trolling as they do the legislation of these
three creditor countries, will be content to

lose the advantage which they have,

through the cornering of gold. You can—
not expect the beneficiaries of the gold
monopoly to voluntarily relax their grip on
the productive energies of the world. By
our financial legislation we are increasing
the value of gold and diminishing the val-
ue of our property and products. The parity
we should seek to restore is between gold
and property. 'We can only do this by de-
stroying the gold monopoly, and this can
, alone be done by restoring the competitive
use of silver. What we need is courage;

THE VENEZUELAN TANGLB.

King Oscar of Sweden Probably to Be
Merely Represented.

LONDON, N 0v. 13. —An official. of the
foreign office said today that it was not
likely that King Oscar of Sweden and Nor-
way would be chosen to sit with the four
Venezuelan arbitration jurists, apparently
intimating that he would be represented
by a fifth jurist to be nominated by him-
self.

It was stated also that the report that
the arbitrators would be selected by the
chief justices of ngland and the United
States was unfoun ed. .

Importance of a Principle Admitted.

. LONDON, Nov. 13.—'I‘hc St. James Ga-
zette this afternoon publishes a leading
article headed “A Historical Moment,”
during the course of which it says: “Lord
Salisbury’s great admission of the princi-
ple that the United States has the right
to intervene in frontier disputes of the
American powers and to compel the dis-

 

. putants to arbitrate altogether transcends

in importance the question of the Guiana
boundary. It is a formal recognition of
the hegemony of the United States on the
American continent and gives the presi-
dent the position in the new world which
the medimval popes and emperors tried
vainly to claim in Europe.”

\Vhisky J ugs Sent by Express.

FORT SCOTT, Kan, Nov. 13.—In the

order on the express company for the liquor.

transactions.

federal laws regulating counterfeiting.

pence per pood under the price that Cali-
fornia wheat is realizing there.

MRS. PARSONS ANGRY.
A Violent Speech Made by. the Exe-
cuted Anarchist’s Widow. - »

THE POLICE TOOK HER-OPP.

The Infurintod Woman Was Determined.
BoWever, and Retry-nod to the Stage
For a Final Defiance—Excit-
‘ing Scens_ In Chicago.

CHICAGO, Nov. ‘13. — Trembling, her
cheeks red and her fists clinched, Lucy'
Parsons was led off the stage at the West
Twelfth street Turner hall by Police Gap-
tain John Wheeler at the annual demon-
stration in memory of the anarchists who
were executed as a result of the Haymarket
murder.

Captain Wheeler and a number of men
were on the platform as she began to
speak. There was nothing out of the or-,
dinary in the first words of Mrs. Parsons.
Her son, she'jsaid, was like his father, and
she was teaching him to take up the great
struggle for which his father had laid
down his life and where that father had
left 011'. She predicted that the day would
come, although the feet of the executed
men had ceased to travel the earth, when-
1,000,000 bodies would move on their legs,
and that ther‘fllrom the graves in Waldheim
the social revolution would spring.

Mrs. Parsons as she proceeded got more
vehement in her manner and more pro-
nounced in her utterances. Arriving at a
description of the manner in which the
four men went to the scaffold, she declared
that the men who had marge of the hang-
ing hurried through with their work be-
cause they feared to look four honest men
in the face. ‘

Raising her voice to its highest pitch,
she said:

“I ask you for what they suffered? What
crime had they committed? I ask you,
hideous murderers, you gang of murderers
from Gary, Grinnell and Governor 'Oglesby
down to the gang of hired police spies, I
ask”—

Here Captain Wheeler hastened across
the stage and before Mrs. Parsons could
say any more led her 011'.

An Exciting Moment.

Instantly the hall was in an uproar.
Men shouted and gesticulated wildly, and
for just a few seconds there was a move to-
ward the stagc. Chairman Apple called
for order, and it was partially restored. In
the meantime Captain Wheeler and Mrs.
Parsons were in the wings.

“What are you trying to do to me,” de-
manded Mrs. Parsons; “] revent me from
telling the people why you murdered my
husband? Well, I will tell them.“

She hastened back 1.) the stage and fair-
ly shouted, while size shook her clinched
fist in the direction Of the back part of the
hall: '

“You murderers, I hurl it in your teeth. ”

Captain Wheeler was soon at her side
and again led her away. Then the house
was thrown into another uproar, and some
one shouted, ‘ ‘ Forward !’ ’

The chairman again called for order, and
Johann Most, who in the meantime had
arrived. was introduced to gain the atten-
tion ’Of the audience. After quiet had been
restored Mrs. Parsons .left the stage and
took her seat in the center of the hall.

Herr Most was not very radical in his
remarks. He simply gave a recapitula-
tion of the events from the time the first
anarchist meeting was disbanded by the
police until the hanging of the four men
in 1887. In closing he said that anarchy
had not been killed by the hanging of the
four men. “No, no,” he continued. “An—
archy is not dead, but it is getting stronger
each year, and will live on forever.”

Burglar Killed.

BATAVIA, N. Y., Nov. 13.—One burglar
was shot to death and another was wound-
ed and captured in Elba, Genesee county,
while they were resisting arrest after en-
tering W. A. Hundrenart’s store. The
burglar alarm awakened the proprietor,
and he, with a body of citizens, surround-
ed the store. The robbers were fired on,
but returned the fire. The wounded man
says his name is George Stevens.

The Presidency of Brazil.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov. 13.——In connec-
tion with the assumption of the powers of
president of the Brazilian republic by the
vice president, Dr. Manuel Victorino Pe-
riera, on account of the illness of President
Moraes, it is stated that there will be no
change in the cabinet. The president turn-
ed over the presidency to the vice president
on the advice of the former’s physicians.
