KENNA'S OPINION
Will Decide the Fate of Discriminative
Duties

WASHINGTON, August 25.-It is un-
derstood that Attorney General Nc
Kenna will have his opinion ON section
% of the tariff bill ready by Friday
There is considerable speculation as
to how he will interpret that much
talked-of section, but he has kept his
own counsel and has been a good listen
er and reader of opinions from others.
He has sought the opinions of experts
and has many before him in addition to
the briefs of the lawyers who appeared
for the railroads.
1t is understood that the Attorney
General had a conference with Col. w.
r. Morrison of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, with whom this sec
ton was discussed. Col. Morrison's
opinion is valuable because he has con-
siderable experience in tariff legisla-
tion as well as in constructing railway
legislation and believes that section 90
clearly imposes a discriminating duty
on goods coming from Japan and China
in British ships to Canadian port and
then into this country over the Cana
dian Pacific Railway. Col Morrison
suggested to the Attorney-General that
whoever worded the amendment to Sec
ton % left little doubt as to Its mean
ing. When asked about the wisdom of
such legislation the Colonel said that
while he was not a protectionist, that
was the policy of this administration
and the purpose of the new tariff law and
he saw no injustice in going back to the
first principles of protection as laid down
in the first tariff laws and protecting
the vessels and railroads of the United
States as we'll as the manufacturers.

With Welcome Accorded
to Faure
ENTHUSIASM IS B0UNDLESS
AND EXPRESSIONS OF FRIEND
SHIP MANY
But There Is Mournful Lack of Any
Desire to Form q National
Alliance
Associated Press Special Wire.

LONDON, August 25.-The special dis
patches to the Times and other morning
papers all remark the spontaneity an6
the bounoless character of the enthus-
lasm, SO unusual among the Russian
people, which has been evoked by M
Faure's visit, in strong contrast to the
reception rendered Emperor William.
Even the heavy rains have not prevented
immense crowds from turning out to well
come the guest of Russia. The st. Peters
burg correspondent of the Mail says that
Emperor Nichola and the Empress were
present last night CTuesday) at the din
ner at the French embassy. The menu
card was artistically decorated with allie
gorical designs by Clairin. The Empress
attached hers to the handle of her fan
to keep as souvenir. She has quite lost
her girlish look and is now a stately
woman of maNuificent presence. She
wishes to attend the luncheon to be given
on board the French warship Pothuau.
The official dispat tch from St. Peters
burg to Paris makes no mention of the
presence of the Car and Czarina at the
EN- mbassy dinner, but says that NJ. Faure
had Baron Mohrenheim on his right and
the Countess of Montebello on his left.
Covers were laid for fifty-five. and M,
Hanotaux and NJ. Muravieff were pres
ent
NJ. Faure's bed is the one which has
been used successfully by Emperor
Francis Joseph of Austria Hungary and
Emperor William. All the correspon-
dents comment upon the fact that there
was no mention of the word alliance
in the toaSts al the banquet in the Peter
hof. Friendship" is still the keynote of
all the official utterances and of the ad-
dresses presented to M. Faure.
FRENCH FIND FAULT
PARIS, Aug. 25-The French newspa-
pers complain that the word friend
ship is the keynote of all the official ut
terances at Cronstadt and st. Peters
burg. and that the term alliance" has
not been used in any of the toasts or ex-
changes of verbal compliments.
The Soliel declares that the Franco
Russian entente only benefits Russia
who is thereby able to coerce Germany
The Petite Republique insists that il
is revolutionary France which the peo-
pie of Russia are acclaimins.

Attorney Got Away

ing the day the baroness visited the court
room for the first time since her return
to this city, accompanied by her little
boy. who vainly tried to attract the at
tention, of MI Delmas by loudly address
ing him as papa" They remained in
the room half an hour and then ql1etly
departed When court adjourned Del
mas fingered in the hall few minutes
and then took a McAllister street car
AS fate would have it, the woman was
on the same car. The baroness clutched
at his coattails and pulled him back, at
the same time giving him ringing slap
on the cheek. BY this time the car had
reached McAllister street, and pri-
vate detective who was with the attorney
arrested the woman. She was taken to
the central police station, but Delmas
refused to prefer charge against her.
The baroness afterward called on Chief
Lees and took her departure as quietly
as though nothing had occurred.

THE MANS MANIA
FIGEL'S CASE
Testimony Given Favoring the The
ory of Suicide .

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 25-During
the progress of the Figel case today
medical testimony was offered by the
defense for the purpose of discrediting
the assumption of the prosecution that
the condition and nature of the wounds
that caused the death of Isaac Hoffman
were such as to preclude the belief that
they were self-inflicted.
DR.. George Francis Shields, at present
one of the instructors connected with
the medical department of the Univer-
sity of California, detailed the results
of his experiments. He was positive
that the wounds received by Hoffman
would not necessarily have deprived him
of consciousness or the power of loco
motion or other muscular action. The
object of this testimony was to show
that Hoffman was alone at the time the
wound was inflicted, and that having
perhaps accidentally shot himself, he
then endeavored to secure assistance.
