IN The SENATE.
CarllsIe's Letter Says That Free List
Bills Will Cause Deficit.
IN The Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1b.-During the
presentation OF memorials and petitions
in the Senate at 1912 O'Clock today, Chief
Clerk Towles, of the House, appeared at
the main door with the tariff bill. The
members OF the Senate listened attentive
iy while Clerk Towles read the resolution
which signalized the Senate triumph
over the House in the tariff struggles,
but there was no demonstrate ion
of any kind. The speakers signature to
the bill was announced at the same time.
Vice President Stevenson Immediately y
signed the bill and his action was an
nounced at 12:17.
Mr.. Gorman chairman of the Democratic
caucus, then suggested several committee
accordingly made.
'JDid the Senator from Maryland" in
quired Mr.. Chandler announce the APP
pointment to the vacancy of the finance
committee?"
"He did not, replied Mr.. German with
a smile.
Mr.. Kyle Pop, N. d. asked unani-
nous consent for the consideration OF a
resolution To prohibit che sale of intoxi-
eating liquors in the Senate wing of the
Capitol during recess of the Senate.
Mr.. German objected.
Free List Bills Get Second Re idIng.
Then at 1928 Mr.. Harris Dem., Tenn. }
asked that the House revenue bills be
read the second time. To the astonish-
ment OF everybody, no Senator OBJ
iected and the House bills to place
coal, iron ore, barbed wire and sugar on
the free list were read.
Mr.. Harris then took the floor and sent
to the clerks desk and had read a letter
from Secretary Carlisle just received. He
felt it his duty to present this letter, he
said.
The Secretary in this letter after review
ing the estimates of receipts and expendi-
lures during the fiscal year, concludes as
follows:
"If sugar alone is placed upon the free
list, the expenditures during the present
fiscal year will exceed the receipts to the
amount OF s2s, ,i7s,o5s, and IL the duties
are removed from all the articles
specified in your letter, the
deficit will be s29, 9,47s, ,05s, not
including any expenditure on account OF
the sinking fund or the payment OF
s2,36O,0o0 of Pacific Railroad Bonds,
which will mature during this fiscal
year. In view of the existing and
prospective requirements OF Public SER
vice, am of the opinion that it would
not be safe TO place all the
articles enumerated in your letter,
or even sugar alone, upon the
free list, without imposing taxation upon
other articles for subjects sufficient to
raise an annual revenue of about
So, 600.
have the honor to be, respectfully
yours, j. G CARLISLE, Secretary.

SOME PEOPLES RELIGION.
Marion Crawford Writes Pointed Little
Lecture on Intolerance.

There are very good and devout men
and women who take the world-pres-
ent and to come-quite literally, as
mere fulfllment of their own limita,
tions; who look upon what they know
as being all that need DO known, and
upon what they believe of God and heav-
en- as the mechanical consequence Of
what they know, rather than as the
cause and goal, respectively, of exist
tence and action; to whom the letter Of
the law is the arbitrary expression OF a
despotic power, which somehow must
be looked upon as merciful; who answer
all questions concerning Gods logic
with the tremendous assertion of God s
will; whose God is magnified man,
and whose devil is malignant animal,
second only to God in understanding,
while extreme from God i'll disposition.
There are good men and women who
to use natural but not fiippant
simile-take it for granted that the soul
is cast into the troubled waters OF life
without the power to swim or even the
possibility of learning to float, depend
enb upon tne DdTo Cnance tnat sOIne Oue
may throw it the life buoy Of ritual re-
ligion as its only conceivable means Of
salvation. And the opponents of each
particular form Of faith invariably take
Just such good men and women, with
all their limitations, as the only true
opponents of that especial creed, which
they then proceed to tear in pieces with
all the case such an undue advantage
of false premise gives them. Mono Of
them has thought of intellectual mor-
cy as being perhaps an integral part OF
Christian char A. Faith they have in
abundance and hope also not little;
but charity, though it be for mems
earthly ills, and theoretically, if not al
ways practically, for mems spiritual
shortcomings, is rigidly forbidden for
the errors of mems minds. Why? No
thinking man can help asking the little
question which grows great in the I'M
answering silence that follows it. Mar

DR.. HOLMES AND HIS PUBLISHER.
The Poet Was Very Careful and Exact as
to His Copy.

The Poet Was Very Careful and Exact as
to His Copy.
When asked as to his business &C
uuaintancewith Oliver Wendell Holmes,
Henry O. Houghton said that it began
with the first publication of the first
volume Of The Atlantic Monthly, in the
initial number of which the "Autocrat
of the Breakfast Table" was published
in November, 1891,
"His copy was always written ON
common white letter paper i'll clear
hand and most carefully prepared, with
very few interlineations and these were
only put in after the greatest delibera-
ton. He used to bring his copy to the
office himself and would afterward
come and get tho proofs, which he most
carefully and painstakingly corrected,
frequently making additional changes
and correction therein when line in
Geld type did hot exactly suit him.
Our firm did not print The Atlantic
in those days. We only stereotyped the
plates, but nevertheless we were brought
in contact with the young poet frequent
". In fact, he was in the Office every
few days.
He was very particular about his
COPY, and so careful was he as to detail
and the exactness of his facts before let
ting matter go to press that he caused
us very little trouble, and when any
thing was to blame he was far reader
to assume the responsibility than to CEN
sure Others.
He was in every way one of the
most charming men | have ever known,
of a very sanguine temperament, al
though occasionally sad and remlnls-
cent.
HE said to me not long ago that he
felt that he was living i'll another age
and generation, and that all the people
of his time, with whom he had lived,
had gone and left him. boston Her

is undoubtedly true that in many house

mashed or plain boiled for dinner was
the logical course of table events in al
