YOKOHAMA, Japan, Aug. 16.-No-
tice has been issued that revision OF
treaties between Japan and foreign
powers will be taken in hand forth

will be that foreigners will not have
the right of trial in their own consular
courts. The government will confer
on foreigners certain privileges in re-

~ concerned, being strongly of the
opinion that the time has not arrived

DAVEHILL LAYS DOWN THE LAW
Whites. appointment Laid Over-Demo-
cratic Senators Want to Talk on
Finance Committee Affairs.

WASHINGTON, Aug. lz.-Before 60
ing to their caucus lday there was q
great deal of discussion as to what
course the republicans should pursue
on the new member of the finance
committee. Among a number of them
there was a disposition TO enter the
fight and name some other democrat
in the place of White for member on
the finance committee. 1t was under
stood that Senator Murphy Of New
York was To be pushed by some of the
conservative senators. Nest of the Tree
silver senators expressed themselves as
Rgainst interfering with the demo-
Gratis in making up committees, and il
was also said that they would not
want To see AN anti-silver man secure
the place, and no doubtswould oppose
Murphy tor ;his reason. 1t is pro ba-
ble; however, that the republicans will
take decided grounds against any fur
ther legislation at this time and may
try to prevent filling of the vacancy
during this session. tits believed that
before this important vate can be taken
quorum will have disappeared.
The caucus lasted until 3 D. H., when
it adjourned without having accom-.
plished great deal AS to taking
action on filling the vacancy, the gem
eral feeling was that no party action
was necessary. Some of the senators
present expressed the opinion that in
view of the position taken by Senator
Hill on the appointment TO fill the
vacancy on the financial COMMITTEES, it
would be proper in return for the re-
publican senators to support resoiI-
ton that he may offer them in regard
to the appointment, thinking it oba-
ble that he might desire to secure the
name of some senator for that of MIR.

prised of this action he said he should
not attempt to substitute someone else,
because he had no personal objection

" HIrE', PROMINENT LAID OVER

WHITE's APPOINTMENT LAID OVER
Democratic Senators Want to Talk on
Finance Committee Affairs.
WASHINGTON, Aug. l7.-As soon a.
the reading of the journal of the SEN
ate was completed, Senator Harris, on
behalf of the democratic steering com
mittee, moved that the senator from
California (White) be appointed to the
vacancy on the finance committee
caused by the death of Senator Vance.
Senator Chandler interposed Obec-
tons. Senator Harris made point of
order that his motion was privileged
because 1t looked to organization of the
senate.
Senator Chandler remarked sarcas-
tieally that 1t was little late to begin
the organization of the seuate. He
called attention to The fact that the
vacancy on the finance committee had
lasted for months, and it was proposed
now to fill 1t at the very close of the
session.
Senator Harris declared holly that it
was with profound astonishment that
he heard an objection from the other
side. In the Is years ne had been "a
member of that body, no matter what
party was in power the majority
named at will the members of the sew
eral committees of the senate and no
voice was heard in objection. The
course of Senator Chandler he con
demned as most revolutionary.
Senator Chandler declared it clme
with i'll grace from Senator Harris to
condemn request made under rules
of which he (HarrIs) was such
master.
HUI Wants Fair Play.
Then Senator Hill got the floor and
immediately plunged into criticism of
the legislation which the filling of the
vacancy was designed TO expedite. SO
far as bills placing coal, iron ore and
sugar on tie free list were concerned,
he voted, lie said, for them when they
were legitimately before the senate,
and :.e was not trying TO escape from
rec
Senator Hill said he stood ready to
vote again to place them on the free
list. None of his democratic associates
had opposed placing these articles on
the free list when the tariff bill was be-
fore the senate, because they had been
bound by caucus agreement. But if
that agreement had not been rent in
twain he had certain amendments 10
offer. He wanted the income tax pro-
vision repealed. and the finance com
mittee had been governed by liberty OF
Judgment and conscience before it
would have reported adversely on the
income tax. and now there was an at
tempt to pack the committee to secure
an adverse report on this amendment.
Heretofore in the filling of ncies
the steering committee first consulted
the caucus of their democratic col
leagues. Why was a different course
to be pursued now? He suggested that
the resolution go over until the demo
Gratis consult on the subject. There
had been a series of bluhders through
out the tariff controversy. If it was
the policy to have the sugar duty re-
tanned there ought to have been a con-
sultation before an attempt was made
to place iJ on the free list. In the
spirit Of harmony he would suggest a
conference, and tnat this matter be al

Coss the South Favor a TARIFF

thO YUM dNOI u dI III
The agitation of the Wilson bill
has made some strange bedfellows
strange to those who have accus-
toned themselves, through their
own inclinations, ignorance and
general bullheadednesS to regard
the North and the South as natur-
ally, normally, and inevitably OPP
posed to each other. Now we See
the men Of Alabama standing
shoulder to shoulder with the men
OF Ohio, clamorlng for protection
for the coal and iron industries.
GeOrgians are beginning to believe
with the mill men Of Massachu-
sets, that the protective duty on
cotton goods is not such bad
thing after all. Louisiana planters
realize that Mr.. Wilson's little bill
is we'll calculated to peck holes in
their sugar balloon and so it goes.
Everyone, being human, is selfish,
and wants his own fields titled and
watered, no matter how his neigh
Dor fares next door.
Since the gentlemen Of the Fiji
ty-third Congress are not disposed
to treat the Wilson bill as a purely
party measure, and the honorable
senators have tacitly given notice
that they expect to play football
with it when it comes their turn,
the"common people" OF Am ,rica
have done well to turn their atten-
ton once more to business. The
current discussion of thee topic, in
and out Of Congress,wi set good
many people to thinking, and may
pave the way to a better under
standing OF the mutual depen-
dence of these forty.four states,
and the unwisdom Of allowing pol
iticians o plul and h u in contra
ry directions, when unity and har-
mony would surely strengthen
and develop all the glorious re-
sources of this great Republic.
Destroy the selfishness OF sectiOr-
alism, and there will be little
trouble to frame a tariff bill that
will be equitable and advantage
