During the discussion of the president’s report at the morning session General W. H. Withington, of Jackson, Mich., said lie thought the business men of the country, and not the politicians, should have the most to say nlKiut the tariff laws, lie was In fhvor of tariff revision, although he had hitherto been in favor of a high tariff. W. 1.. Saunders, vice president of the Ingersol-Sergeant Drill company, of New York, agreed with General Withington. lie said a high tariff was not only unnecessary but a hindrance, and a danger to our business. “Our Russian sugar controversy,” said lie, “shows how we may be legislated against by other nations.” Believed Protection the Bent.

In the fight the Boers killed six officers and fifty-one men and wounded six officers and 115 men. They were driven off and their posl-. tion captured, and they left forty-one dead on the field. Tiie fight was one of tlie most desperate engagements of tlie war. General Dixon’s column was traversing tlie district and establishing posts when it was attacked by 1,200 Boers, under Commandant Kemp. The Boers were so dose that fifty British fell at the first volley. The yeomanry held the position, protecting the guns until they were nearly decimated, and then, finding it impossible to save the guns, the artillerymen shot the gun horses to prevent the Boers moving the guns. Tlie column quickly recovered from the shock of tiie unexpected attack. The Derbyshires charged with the bayonet, and after a short, desperate tight drove off the Boers and recovered the guns. The Derbyshires and yeomanry both lost very heavily.
