Awarded by the Interna.
tional Jury.
Special to THE MORNING CALL.

CHICAGO. Aug. 1O.-For some time past
the proposition has been considered of Pc
titionng the department of awards to
pass upon exhibits OF the State as we'll as
national buildings. As California would
be specially benefited by this change in
the rules Secretary Judkins has been ag-
tating the matter. and to-day called upon
John Boyd Thatcher Of the committee on
awards and also upon the national COM
mission. Satisfied that these bodies would
favor the plan, he next went before the
national organization of State Worlds
Fair executive officers, which met to-day,
and presented his scheme. AS result Of
his statement, after discussion, commit
tee was appointed, with Mr.. Judkins as
chairman. for the purpose Of drafting reso-
lutions for presentation to the exposition
officials.
These resolutions, if adopted. will pro-
vide that ali exhibits in the State build
ings shall be laced under the jurisdiction
of the International Jury IF Awards. the
same as the exhibits in the main buildings.

building at the Worlds Fair to-day. The
officers of the State. accompanied by sew
eral companies of State militia. headed by
the Iowa State band. formed in session

trouble with the gatemen again to-day.
He did not thrash the fellow, however.

then went to the pass gate. where he was
admitted.
According to the report Of the committee
selected TO make an approximate estimate
Of the amount necessary for the continued
meeting of the Board OF Lady Managers
to the end of the fair. it would cost $4,000
moro than the amount necessary if the
board adjourned at once and held sessions
in October. When the repor; came up for
adoption it was opposed by several. who
claimed that it meant a sine-dle adjourn
ment. and filibusterng began. Finally
the report was tabled by a vote OF SO to So
An adjournment was then taken until to-
morrow.
Secretary Dickinson of the National
Commission denies that the commission is
sitting without quorum. He has re-
ceived no intimation from Carlisle that the
sessions must be discontinued.

night and the buildings thrown open TO

THE NEW TARIFF BILL
THE UNIVERSAL TOPIC OF DISCUSSION
AT WASHINGTON.
Opinions as to How it Affects the Indus
tries Of Different Sections Of the Coun-
try-wool Men Procuring Am
munition for Hard Fight.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.-The ways
and means committee will tomorrow
give attention to the internal revenue
schedule of the new tariff system. The
internal revenue schedule proper will
not be difficult, but the income tax
scheme will involve considerable Ia
Dor. Republicans are already pre-
pairing for vigorous fight on the new
bill. Circular letters are being sent
out by thousands, signed by Justice,
Bateman s. Cox of Philadelphia, wool
commission merchants, asking that
certain data be sent j. @. Burrows,
Republican member of the ways and
means committee, in regard to the
wool question.
Of course the principal theme of
discussion in congressional circles to-
day is the new tariff bill. In the South
generally the effect of the new bill will
not be felt so severely as elsewhere on
account of the local character of its
great industries. In those localities,
however. its results will be felt to a
very considerable extent. Rice, sugar,
iron ore and coal are the principal ar
ticles in which Southerners are inter
ested and all have been subjected to
vigorous treatment. The Western
members seem fairly we'll satisfied with
the bill. The Democrats OF that sec
ton are largely free traders.
Up in Minnesota, Wl'consin and
Northern Michigan there are some
of the largest and easiest worked de-
posts of iron in the country. Repre-
sentative Baldwin, whose district in
Minnesota includes many of these
mines, is far from being dismayed at
the prospect of free iron, 1T may
possibly retard the development of
that country for short time," said he
this morning, but it will bring the
iron business to its proper commercial
basis, then attention will be directed
to fields where ore can be more easily
worked When that time comes the
w estern mines will be developed"
William B. Morrison, now chairman
of the interstate commerce commits
sion, asked to give his opinion of the
Wilson bill, said he did not like to tplk
on the subject. ut is very easy to crit
icise the actions of Others" he said,
and besides the whole scheme is not
developed. l ought to be satisfied with
the wooden schedule, "added Morrison,
rs it was my bill that first placed
wool on the free list, and l have been
an advocate of it ever since"
The cabinet meeting today lasted
three hours All the members except
Smith were present. The presidents
message was the main subject of dis
cussion. The president expects to
have the message ready to send in
Monday noon, IS soon as congress
meets. The message is expected to be
lengthy.
