NEW VIEW OF IVES, DEFEAT.
Master of Ceremonies COwIes Said
to Have Done the interference

NEW YORK. Dec. THE story of the dis
pute over the billiard tournament was dis
cussed with interest by the lovers of the
game today. 1t now transpires that while
Ives was interefered- with just as he was
about to make the shot. it was not Edward
Mclaughlin, the refereep who caused the
trouble, but T. z. .CeYles. the master of GER
emonies. Mr. Cowles had no idea of inten-
tionally interfering with Ives, but that he
did so is now admitted. Mclaughlin, in
speaking of the matter, said that when the
disputed play occurred he was on the oppo-
site side of the table. and did not go over
to him at all
81 saw Mr.. Cow1es, the master of ceremo
MES, approach Mr.. Ives. but whether he
touched his sleeve or what he said to Mr..
Ives I do not know. 1 saw Mr. Cowles' lips
move as if he was saying something to Mr..
Ives. Then Mr.. Ives missed his shot and
turned away from the table muttering."
Added interest in this Incident will be felt
In st. Paul, as Mr.. Cowles is well known
here He was for a time managing editor of
the Pioneer Press clubs billiard table and
incidentally managing editor of the Pioneer
Press.

press the obligation in the public debt is an
ambiguous word. 1t is doubt understood
by the more discriminating public creditor
to mean gold coin, and the solemn act of
congress pledging the maintenance of silver
coin upon parity with gold coin makes it
impossible to construe the word "coin' as
therein used, to mean anything other than
gold or it's full equivalent. Yet as this is a
conclusion Of logic rather than a clear state
ment Of fact, the simpler and more humble
investors or would-be investors in the public
debt are confused and doubtful, and the pub
lie credit is the weaker therefor
The recommendations 1 make must be con-
strued not as being in themselves final meas
ures, but rather as tentative steps in a direc-
ton which, consistently pursued, will lead
to conditions ultimately desirable. The con-
dition Of the treasury in It's relation to de-
mand obligations requires that one of two
steps promptly be taken. The one may be a
large reinforcement of the permanent gold
reserve; the other may be by an important
reduction in the Objectionable form of Habli-,
ties. The latter is, in my opinion, the more
desirable.

the necessity of giving attention to the

SENATE AMENDMENTS.
One Which Senator Pettigrew Pro.
poses to Offer to the Tariff Bill.

The opposition to the tariff bill in the
Senate do not propose to obstruct the
measure when it reaches the Senate but
there will he several embarrassing amend
ments proposed by them. For instance
MIR. Pettigrew intends to offer one amend
ment providing that all articles On the
dutiabie list in the Dingley bill which are
supported by an American trust shall be
admitted free of duty, the importers of
such articles being Empowered to prosecute
their claim for free entry in the district
courts. This means that any importer who
can show that the goods which he imports
are controlled in this country by a trusg
will be relieved of the payment of any
duty. Inasmuch as this amendment aims
at trusts. it is likely to have very strong
support in the Senate, and it has in ii the
possibilities of serious embarrassmen to
tariff legislation. Should the Senate adopt
IL ana insist upon its remaining in the
bill. 1t might be the undoing of the bill an
a revenue measure.
