Washington, Nov. 27.—The new Dem
ocratic tariff bill hae just been given to
tbo public. Its provisions fulfill every
expectation of thoee who predicted radi
cal reform. In many respects it is
surprise even to the Democratic mem
ben of congress, as it is unprecedented
in many of its provisions, and, to a greet
extent, doctrinaire in sorjo matters upon
which the party has never given definite
political utterances.
The free list is of that liberal scope
sufficient to satisfy tbe most radical ad
vocates of drastic reform, and the repu
diation of the principle of reciprocity is
decisive and emphatic. Thus the tariff
bill, in addition to the reforms it makes
in tbe custom laws, will necessitate the
immediate readjustment of the treaties
with those South American countries
which enjoy practical or theoretical
reciprocity with the great American re
public of the northern hemisphere.
One of the tenets of the Democracy
which found such frequent iteration and
was the source of such declamatory elo
quence in the last two campaigns, is the
subject of a compromise in the adjust
ment of sugar schedules. Tli* bounty
which was to bo to promptly repealed
Is, instead, to be repealed by easy grada
tions, and will not reach its conclusive
effect until after the end of the present
century. It is to be reduced 1-4 of a
cent each year for eight years.
The sugar schedule leaves raw sugar
on the free list as at present and reduces
the duty on refined sugar from 1-2 to 1*4
of a cent per pound. It does not repeal
the bounty outright, but provides for its
repeal in eight yean horn Jan. 1, 1893,
by reducing it ono-eighth each year,
which is a reduction of 1-4 of a cent a
year in the bounty of 2 cents a pound.
In the new hill the following articles
have been taken from the dutiable list
and placed pu the free list: Iron on,
coal, coke, cotton ties, lumber, wool,
binding twine, lead ore and many other
articles, particularly raw material. The
duties of tbe McKinley bill have been
reduced all along the line. The duty
rice is reduced about one-third, and on
woolen goods and clothing about one-
third.
Tho duty on cigara remains as to tbe
ad valorem duty the same as in the Mc
Kinley hill, 28 per cent, hat the duty of
$4.80 Mr pound has been reduced to $8,
and there is a cut of 10 per cent on cigar
fillers, and the duty on wrappers is re
duced from $4 s pound to $2.75.
The duty on ootton bagging, which is
now i cents a pound, has been reduced
to $0 per cent ad valorem on bagging im
ported to he exported when covering
goods, the duty la refunded when
the same is exposed. A cut of
•bout 80 per cent hae been made in cot
ton mill machinery, and indeed there is
• cut of 80 per cent or more all along
tl>e line in the machinery schedule*,
^ Speaking of the bill, Representative
“Free lumber will be • great benefit
to the people of tbe prairie states, and
(rye salt will give to those who need salt
for their cattle or for coring meet the
same advantages which have been se
cured heretofore by means of rebate to
those who cured fish.”
Tbe internal revenue portion of the
bill hae not been completed and proba
bly will not he tor a week.

UladatoM KtiSWriaf from Ii
LONPON, Nov. 27.—Mr. Oladstone is
taasNoa v. powuxrly. jSH
was what he should have done long ago.
No action was taken on the matter,
though it was the topic of discussion
which lasted until tbe assembly
juurned. The causes which led to the
resignation are numerous.
After Mr. Powderly bad been repeat
edly urged by the assembly to substitute
a new list of names for members of tbs
executive committee he acqnieeoed to
these demands. The second list was not
much more favorably received than the
first one, but he was most persistent in
his effort* to havsit accepted. McGuire,
of New York, waa the only one elected,
and the assembly adjourned Friday
without getting any farther along.
Saturday the fight waa begun with re
newed vigor. Every point raised by the
master workman was stubbornly fought
by his opponents with still no result.
In the afternoon new life seemed to
have been instilled into the anti-Powder-
ly faction, and they began to elect a
board that would best suit them. The
first man chosen in thi%way waa H. D.
Martin, of District Assembly 794, who
got a majority vote of 24. James M.
Kenny, of District Assembly 89. got a
vote of 24. and J. A. McGuirk, of Wash
ington, polled 22 votes—a bare majority.
Mr. Powderly’* efforts to have hia
•late considered were all to vain. He
was almost frantic in hia endeavors to
impress upon tbe assembly that hs waa
only sxerdstog the powers nis office gave
him. He wanted hia appointees elected.
Hie opponents told him be had miscon
strued tbe meaning of tho constitution.
This only added fuel to the flames.
Mr. Powderly would not aoosptthe com
mitteemen the delegates bed elected. He
declared their election illegal. Then tbs
climax cams. Tbe defeated leader spoke
with remarkable clearness as he said:
