introduces an Automatic
Measure in the House.
Schedule D, the Labor Sclieduie, is
to Be Flexible and is to Be Added
to From Time to Time—“lauts the
Matter Settled on a. Business Basis.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.——Represcntative
Coombs of New York Offered the follow-
resolution in the house yesterday:
Resolved , That the committee on ways and
means be directed to prepare and present for
the house a bill for the collection of revenue
and other purposes, substantially upon
the basis and principle of the following:
The Propositions.
The bill shall have four schedules, as
follows: , ‘
Schedule A—To be composed of articles
free of duty, including all raw materials
necrssary in the manufacture of goods.
Schedule B—To be composed of articles
which, by their nature, should not pay a
duty exceeding 10 per cent.
Schedule C—To be composed of articles,
principally wine, spirits, tobacco, cigars,
cigarettes and upon which a. duty must be
charged sufficient at least to protect manu-
facturers who pay a tax under our inter-
nal revenue laws. Also of. a few well-
defined articlesof luxury, which will bear
2:. rate of at least 30 per cent. ad valorem.
Labor to Be Protected.
Schedule D—To be known as the sched-
ule for the protection of labor, and which
shall be made up from time to time in the
manner hereinafter specified.
All articles not covered by the preceding
lists shall be grouped and known as “un-
specified” and shall have a uniform rate of
ad valorem duty as provided hereafter.
The bill shall also provide that in case
any manufacturer or manufacturers of
goods or merchandise included in the class
of “unspecified” shall. find that the item
labor cost, including the use of machinery,
of his productions in this country, shall
exceed that paid by the manufacturers of
the same class of goods made, in foreign
countries, he may present swoorn proofs
of the same to the committee, with the de-
mand that such articles shall be entered
on schedule D.
1How Duties Dizzy Be Raised.
If, upon examination, the committee
find that the statements are correct, 'or if
they find that any difference exists in
favor of the foreign manufacturers, they
shall cause that article or class of articles
to be entered upon schedule D, with a.
specific duty equal to such difference, al-
ways provided that the article is not pro-
tected by letters patent issued by this gov-
ernment.
Its reading was listened to with interest
and some amusement on the republican
side of the hourse.
Mr. Outhwaitc (dem. Ohio) said: “Let
it go to the committee on ways and
means.” Mr. Payne (rep. N. Y.): “I
wish to ask, Mr. Speaker, if that is consti-
tutional?”
Mr. Hopkins (rep. 111.,) I think this
democratic house can dispose of that reso-
lution without referring it to a. commit-
too.”
But it was so referred.
Business Not Politics.
Speaking of the resolution to a reporter
Mr. Coombs said his object was to take
the tariff out of politics, as far as it might
be done. NO party had ever made a. tariff
bill, he said, without getting hurt by it,
and 'his belief was that both democrat
and republican parties would be glad to
have the matter settled upon a business
basis.
'An Automatic BIcasure.
The principal advantages he claimed for
hfs scheme was that it provided a reason-
able, automatic revision of the rates of the
tariff every year so that they might vary
with the changes in the factors entering
into the problem. A great trouble in all
previous tarifl’s, he said, had been that
they soon lost the proportion that they
were intended to bear to the cost of the
articles affected, owing to changes in cost
and methods of manufacture. This would
be obviated by the operation of his plan.
Heirs to F‘lood's Millions.
icirrALO, Oct. 26,—It is stated on what
appears good authority that Marcus Flood,
of EastOtto, N. Y., and his sister, Mrs.
Margaret Hilliker, of Glenwood, have
fallen heirs to six million dollars each of
the fortune left by the late James G.
Flood, of CalifOrnia. James G. Flood was
an uncle of Mrs. Hilliker and Marcus
Flood.

Naval Officials in. ‘u‘fashington Dumb-
f‘ouudcd —— The American .Admiral
Considered Specially Fitted to Deal
With Revolutionary Conditions.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-—The peremptory
removal of Commodore and Acting Rear
Admiral Stanton, stationed at Rio Janeiro,
Brazil, from the command of the South
Atlantic station, was one of the most
startling surprises ever experienced in
Washington official life, and for a time it
has almost obscured the interest in the
silver fight.
Action Not Taken Hastily.
President Cleveland took action after
long conferences with the secretaries of
state and of the navy, and when put in
possession of all the facts and also of such
further information Senor Mendonca, the
Brazilian minister in Washington, was
able to furnish. The official order was
briefly made - public by Secretary Herbert
in the following memorandum:
Stanton Saluted Mello.
“The navy department learned by au-
thority today by telegram from Rear-
Admiral Stanton, in command of the
United States naval forces at Rio de Ja-
neiro, that this Officer had saluted theflag
of Admiral Mello, commanding the insur-
gent fleet. This salute was unauthorized
by any instructions the Admiral had re-
ceived.
Friendly Nation hiistrcated.
“It was a unfriendly act toward a friendly
power, and the secretary of the navy, after
consulting with the president and the sec-
retary of state, issued an order detaching
Admiral Stanton from command of his
squadron and turning it over to Capt.
Picking, the next Officer in rank.”
The Report at First Discredited.
In the early morning, state and navy
department officials were incredulous as
to the possibility of there being any truth
in the report published in the Berlin
N orddeutsche Zeitung.
Commodore Stanton had been specially
selected for this post of duty because he
was considered to possess in a preeminent
degree those qualifications of coolness and
discretion which fitted him' to deal with
the revolutionary conditions prevailing in
the various countries to which his assign-
ment would naturally call him.
Stunton’s Record Was Excellent.
Commodore Stanton’s record as a naval
officer was an excellent one.
One of the highest officers in the service,
who himself probably influenced in no
small degree Commodore Stanton’s ap-
pointment, remarked to-day:
“This matter is as much a. surprise to
me as a slap in the face would be. The
relations of the United States to the recog—
nized government of Brazil were such that
it was not believed possible that an officer
of high rank and experience would go out
of his way to give official salute and recog-
nition to the commander of a. naval force
avowedly in insurrection against the gov-
ernment and actually engaged in bombard-
ing the national capital.” ' .
Picking is an Oflicer of Experience.
Captain Henry F. Picking, of the
Charleston, who relieves Commodore
Stanton, is also an Officer of experience.
He has with him the cruiser Newark,
Captain Silas Casey, and in three days
from now" should be joined by the De-
troit, Commander 'Willa‘rd H. Brownson.
Court-Illa rtial Probable.
Secretary Herbert was unwilling to
speak as to what further action would be
taken in Commodore Stanton’s case, but
it is supposed a court-martial would result.
His successor in command Of the south
Atlantic station will not be determined
upon hastily, but it is thought it will
probably be Commodore Richard W.
invade, new on duty a< a member of the
world’s Colombian exposition.

Good News for Coal Miners.
PlT’l‘SBUItG, Oct. 26.——'l‘he railroad coal
operators have decided not to make

Peixoto Restricts All Liberty.
NEW YORK, Oct. 26.4-A deSpatch
from Montevideo says that Peixoto’s gov-‘
ernment'has issued adecree which restricts
the liberty of the press entirely, provides
for the expulsion of foreigners from the
country who may render themselves ob-
noxious to Peixoto, and removes any guar-
antee of the safety of their lives or prop-_
erty which heretofore has existed. .
Peixoto’s forts kept up an incessant fir-
ing during October 16 and 17 upon Fort
Villegagnon, whose final surrender to
Mello, after long maintaining a strict neu-
trality, has already been cabled. Tho
guns of the latter made no reply at first.
Admiral Mello then sent word to the
diplomatic corps in Rio that as Peixoto
continued to break faith with him in the
matter of his promise not to fire on the
rebels if they in turn refrained from shell-
ing Rio he would be forced to bombard the
city again.
The foreign diplomats again brought
their persuasive powers to bear upon the
rebel admiral, but this time with poor suc-
cess, for at 6 o’clock on the evening of Oc-
tober 17 the guns in Fort Villegagnon
opened fire, this time with telling efiectg
The gunnery displayed was excellent,
and much damage was done to the bar-
racks in Rio. Several persons were killed
inside the Fort of Santa Cruz by bursting
shells, and the searchlight on Gloria hill,
by which Peixoto kept track of the move-
ments of the rebel ships at night, was
smashed by a cannon shot.
Steamers arriving from the south report
that both the Metegro and the Uranus had
arrived safely Off Desterro.
Peixoto is mounting more guns upon
Castle bill, which overlooks the city and
boy. He has abandoned Fort Conccicos,
which was only used as a. military prison.
