SEED’S TARIFF BILL. HOW IT WOULD AFFECT AMERICAN MANUFACTURERS. r»fQM* Change* Woold Pi-aetJeally Prohibit the Importattoa of FU*» Fleece*. Increase* the Cost of Clothing, Blanket* and Flannels Thirty-Are Per Cent. The hasty pudding tariff hill passed by the Republicans in the house has undergone some change in regard to its principal ingredients, says the Philadel* phia Record. To the sheep growers is given the richest plum in a restoration of 60 per oent of the McKinley duties on first and second class wool and in the imposition of the entire McKinley duty of 32 per cent on third class (or carpet) wooL The manufacturers are compensated by the retention of the entire ad valorem duties now levied on woolen fabrics and by the restoration of 60 per oent of the McKinley specific duties on such imports. On carpets and druggets the entire specific dnties of the McKinley tariff are restored and the present ad valorem duties retained. Under the McKinley tariff the average duty on woolen goods was 100 per cent On some leading importations the dnties were considerably above that rate. Under the existing tariff the average duty is about 00 per cent, and it is estimated that* this hasty pudding Christmas gift, with its mixture of ad valorem and specific dutifep, would again raise the average rate ^td about 85 por cent on 1 all imports of woolens, including clothing. blgfikets and flannels. Should this ^KiiqmtT be permitted to become a law, ctf which there is now little probability, economic housewives would in their shopping tours soon learn whether they pay the duty or whether it is paid by the foreign manufacturers, as the tariff rid ion Ions! v assert.

But oo amount of duties, ad valorem or specific, could compensate the American manufacturers for the loss of free wool. Since wool was made free in the existing tariff a great revolution has taken place In the character of its imports. In proof of the completeness of this revolution hnd of the avidity with which American manufacturers have availed themselves of the freedom of access to the best markets for tbeir raw materials, the total importations of wool in the tea mouths beginning with under the Ik of the Jan. 1. J895, have amounted to 211,057.638 pounds, of which 180,404,594 pounds were of the higher qualities, which grades formerly fuund! their way in comparatively small quantities to American mills. Now, however, the condition is totally reversed by the influence of free trade. While McKinley tariff the great b impdrta of wool consisted of [the cheapest and coarsest grade, the chjief importations now consist of the tralian and Andean fleeces. Under the McKinley act the duty op first class wool was 11 cents] a pound, and under the proposed horizontal schedule American manufacturers would bo obliged to i>ay a duty cf |6.6 cejits a pound on this wool. On second class, or “combing” wool, of vvpich there iuest Assure now considerable importations, the McKinley duty was 12 cent and the manufacturers unde bill would have to pay a cents a pound on their importations. The McKinley duties on scoured wool of the first and second classeswere three times the above rates, and it is hardly necessary to add that with the proposed restoration of GO per cent of those rates the importation of such wool would be prohibited. Under the McKinley tariff] American woolen manufacturers did not and could not import the best grades jof wool in anything like adequate quantities. The proof of this is in the enormous and wholly unprecedented importations of the finest’ fleeces since wool was put cm the free list, a little more than a year ago. Nor could the American manufacturers profitably import these qualities of wool under rates of duty in the proposed schedule ranging from 42 to 65 per cent. As an inevitable consequence, they would be remitted once more to the cheapest aud coarsest grade of foreign wool in order to eke opt an insufficient domestic supply. While the best wool would return to the free markets of Loudon and Antwerp fur the exclusive use of English, French and German manufacturers. From Europe it would come to this country in fine fabrics, either over or under.tbe high tariff walL The smugglers und the undervaluers of invoices, with the encouragement offered them, would renew their contraband traffic in woolen goods with more activity than ever before.

There win t* no senoos disturbance of the industrial peace by ,ti»e final passage of such a measure. Its authors neither expect nor desire that it snail beocme a law, with the certainty that it Would bring disaster upon a large body of manufacturers by obstructing if not altogether cutting off the present supply of their best raw material. The object of this movement is to silence the clamors of the tariff fanatics who are crying for a bill, and to amuse sheeps wers in Ohio and Michigan withi Illusory hopes of a restoration of the wXiVdutiea when the Republicans shall come into power in 1897. Should the expectation of Republican success be realised in November next, the mischievous effect of depriving the manufacturers of free wool will be more manifest in 1897 than it is now. By that time the manufacturers, many of whom are yet halting between two opinions, would ba fully convinced of the be Deficient results of free trade in wool, while the sheep growers, with the exception of a few party shepherds, would find in the expanding markets for their products that their apprehensions of the evils of tariff reform have been largely imaginary.
