W ashington , Oot. 6 __ The majority and minority reports on the tariff bill wore pre sented in the senate yesterday. Both are very long and explicit and arc? intended for distribution as campaign documents. The lajority ................................. presen senate reducL.^ ___________________ count of the inexcusable rete national treasury or iu the national banks o l volumes of money in excess of the amount required to pay tho currentdemandsjupon the treasury and to meet maturing obligations o.' the government. The existence oi this immense surplus fur nishes occasion for constant anxiety and ap prehension of possible financial disaster. The failure to prevent this dangerous accu mulation, inciting, as it docs, extravagant expenditures and constituting an everpresent menace to the prosperity o f all our people, cannot be too severely condemned; hut it is ' a failure for which the executive department of the government is alone responsible. This aeoumulation could and should have been profitably avoided and the possibility of disaster averted by a prompt return of the n^oney collected from the people to the chan nels of trade through the purchase of United States bonds that could at a ll times have been obtained for prices which to the government would have been equal to an Investment of otherwise unprofitable funds .at a rate of in terest not more than 2 per cent, per annum. Aftor au exhaustive examination and criti cism of the Mills bill In detail and a long dis cussion of Iree trade, protection, the labor cost o f production and war tariff, the majority' close their report wltli the following observa tion concerning their work and the two OI a consisiens measure wnose neneiicom m- fluonces would be felt in every section and by every class of our people, which would give greater diver\**” industries, and bv strengthening and invigorating the American system of protection, secure the harmonious development and prosperity of agriculture, manufactures and commerce. - “The differences between the house bill and the substitute reported by your committee are fundamental. The house bill has boon formulated on tho theory that a diminution of revenues can only be secured by a reduc tion or repeal of protective duties, and that tariff rovisioa moans simply that indiscrimin ate cutting down of rates which encourages importations, benefits foreign manufacturers and produces free trade. “The substitute proposes to reduce reve nue and at the samo time to preserve the American system. It is based upon the Ide.a that tariff revision implies an equitable read justment of duties in the interest and for the Ijeneiit of the people of the United States, and in the distribution of rates its framers have not hesitated to erect or maintain dofonsive barriers, which would carry confldonoo and comfort Into American homes.” Tho minority at the o utset complain that none of them wore consulted or informed about the provisions of the substitute re ported by the Bepublican majority until it was reported to the full committee on tho 25th of last month, and of tlio hearings before tho sub-committee since last May they assort that It is sate to say all tho interests bene- fitted by a high protective tariff have been fully heard, and have had much Influence in shaping the substithte, while tho great body of the people, the taxpayers and vlcticas of this policy, have not appeared and have not beenhe.ard.- Criticising the substitute, the minority say tho essentialdifference between the house bill and tho senate substitute Jis apparent and rudic.il at the outset in the matter of revenue. The one is framed in the interest of the pub lic treasury; the other In the interest of of private pockets. The one la framed in the Interest of the whole p eople; the other in the interestpf 300,000 manufacturers. The one is designed to reduce both government revenue and taxation—the taxation w hich boars heavi est on the necessaries of life: tho other is in tended to reduce pnblio revenue Indeed, but to maintain private revenues by increasing and retaining taxation on all the nocossarios LlUO UliU ilUU LUUUUUU, UIA the expensive machinery for the collection of tho revenue and enforcement of the law in fsill force, while it increases taxation upon tho actual and indispensiblo necessaries of life, and this, too, when there is a large sur plus in the treasury, and under existing laws that surplus is being increased at tho rote of over $10,000,000 per raOnth. The substitute, the minority say, not onl; retains a duljy on raw wool, hut increases th( duty from* ten to eleven cents a pound on clothing and combing wool, and tho existing duty Is retained on carpet wools, which all parties agree are not produced in this coun try, and the changes made in tho manufact ures of wool inoreaoes tho taxation, and to that extent increases the cost of the manu factured article and especially the cheaper grades—the clothing of tho poor. Commenting on the connection between the tariff and trusts, the minority say. \The present tariff is the nursing .mother of trusts. It is the wall behind which these combina tions are formed, by which tho people are plundered. Tariffs keep out the foreign competition, and the combination suppi the domestic, and tiro whole people a are e.,™ ___________ — _ _________ — . special instance of thOBi who form them,- would seem but simpto justice, as, \roll as good policy, to tear down m m uch a s possilfis in wrong doing. They are not \privato at- r fairs,\ as has bee \ ’, ’ \ fairs,” as lias been asserted but public evils I of the greatest oharnotor, affecting tho price of every article which contributes to tho com- '' fort and support of tho people. The ])rovls- ions of the'substitute favor them greatly and will serve to onoourage their formation in still other branches of manufaoturo.” , Free wool is discussed, and the minority are firmly eonvinood that,besides tlie inoalou- labla advantage to tho whole‘country that would result from the placing of wool upon the free list, it is easily demonstrabio that no class w ill suffer, hut that each will reap his share of th? beueflt. The minority report is signed by Senators Harris, Vance, Yoorliees and McPherson. P B I L I P PAX,I,EDONX a X U O E V . Thlcd Elxecutlon In tlie History of Fair- flold County, Conn. B bidgehort , Oot. G,—Philip Palledoni, the Italian who murdered his brother in cold blood on the evening of June 22, 1886, suf fered the death penalty today, being the third victim of capital punishment within the his* torj’ of Fairfield county. Fitiy-eight years ago a colored man was hanged atDhnbury for rape, and eight years ago last May Edwin Hoyt was executed in this city for the murder of his aged father in Sherman. The same instrument u sed in the execution of Hoyt, and also in the hanging of Chip Smith in New Haven, was brought info use again in launching Palledoni into eternity. The fratricide was 2A years of age, below the medium height, and possessed of a repulsive countenance. He could neither read nor write and knew but little o l the English lan guage. Rev. Father Leo ofW insted, admlnistered| spiritfially to tho condemned. Tho priest said to a reporter last night, that he was strongly of the opinion that Palledoni should not hang, as he undoubtedly committed thd crime on the impulse of .the moment and without any premeditation. The condemned man passed a quiet nlgh^ lastnight, sleeping most of tho time, I DFDSLL XnmER OATH. luigui VL mui. Lgagw, was uruugui. supreme court chambers, handcuffed to Keeper Smyth, oi the Tombs, this morning. He was present in obedience to a writ Of, habeas corpus to be sworn aud examined in two actions brouglit by his former employers,-: S h i r a n , Barlow, Larooquo AOhoates a gainst the Bank of the State of New York to reoovef $184,000, the amount of B edell’s forged obeoka cashed by that bank. Judge O’Brien decided, after hearing argu ments on both sides, to swear the witness aud adjourn h is examination for one Veek, to allow tho defendant bank to prepare for tho examination or to make the necessary motions a s to its limitation. When Bedell was called to bo sworn he has- ily arose, walked with a springy step to tho L>:ir, took the oath, kissed tho bible which vyas presented to him and then walked-««t> beckoning to Eeopor Smyth to accompany At the Eeques^ of Mr. Boot tho examination was set down for next Thursday. T H E x o m o o x M ia tD E R FIEN D . Inquest o n t lie Body o f tlio Last Victim !tim, the body which was found last Sunday woning in Mitre square, ^ h o ovldonco shows that tho murderer m et the woman at' some distance from the square, and walked with her along the main street that led to it. It was probably this fact which caused tho murderer to mutlllate the face of this victim, as h e feared that they had been seen together, and that tho woman’s idontiflcatlon would lead to his capture. Tho faces of the other ■Whitechapel victims were untouched, while this one’s was backed beyond recognition. Various measures have been adopted by tho people of tho East End for their proteotion, as little confidence is felt in the police. Last night fifty workingmen, all armed and ready to attack even a bloodthirsty insane man, patrolled tho vicinity frequented by tho mur derer. The papers print columns of letters on tho subject everyday, and suggestions arc numerous. The latest is that public prayers shall be said os a meRHS of gaining relief from the opldemlo of murder. MoQVAHB HOWE AGAIN. 'Welcomed by- His Friends on His Re turn. from ^iiig Sing. N ew Y oex , Oct. G.—Ex-Alderman Arthur J. McQuade returned to this city yesterday after an ahseuca of one year and nine months which he spent in Sing Sing prison.

N ew Y oek , Oot. 6.—The hundreds of men 5mployeu in tho sugar rOflneries in Williams burg, are very much disturbed b y tb« rumor that the sugar trust, of which Theodore A. Havomeyer i s president, is about to issue another order to close down. Tho first thunderbolt was oast among them DU Tuesday, -when, without a word of warn ing, 800 men were discharged from Do Oastro Ss Bonner’s refinery-at the corner o f Kent ivenue and South Ninth street. It -was thought then that the disaster would spread no further, but tho next evening the fears of the •\vorkingmen were augmented by the closing of the firms other roflaerios on North Third street, between 600 and 700 more men losing their situations as h eonsequenoe. The rumor that Dick & Meyer’s refl.nery, on the corner of North Seventh street and Kent avenue, is to close in two weekshas gained a strong hold In the men’s m inds, and i t Is said that som e of the men have already secured situations elsewhere to guard against a sud den surprise. Dick & Meyer fornterly em ployed about 500 men, but at tho present time 300 hands represent their entire working ' If the trust pursues the plan 11 has com- . menood to work on either Doesclier’s refln- .ary, which adjoins and Is coiinocted with Havomeyer and Elder’s, or the Brooklyn Be- -flning company’s works will bo the next to declare a look-out. Doasoher now employs ' about 250 men, against 500, tho number they had when they opens vfill obey that organization’ regard to the condition into which their ^ workmen will be thrown through losing their situations tho overproduction. Tho raamg.iment of the trust say that the Bay State sugar refinery in Boston, which was shut dowu recently, is not connected with their organization. If that is so, wliy Is the mivelilnery being removed front that refinery and being placed in the new refinefy In Groonpolnt? 'Their statonnents do not coincide with known facts.
