The Signal Corps Cadets gave a short

the proficiency attained during the
short period of training. This drill
would have been much more pleasing
had the whole corps been present to
give the drill instead of a squad, but
the squad did splendid work. The Tri-

DUTY ON WOOL.
WASHINGTON, June 1S.-The advo-
Gates in the Senate of an increase OF
the duty on wool held a meeting to-
day and decided upon the following as
the rates which they will ask the COM
mittee to fix on wool:
First CIass-In grease, unskirted, 10
cent per pound; in grease, skirted, II
cents per pound; if washed, double
these rates; if secured, treble.
Second Class-In grease, unskirted, IL
cents per pound; in grease, skirted, i
cents; washed, double; if secured, ire
BILE.
Third Class-Worth not exceeding =
cents per pound, 3 cents duty; worth
over 6 cents and not exceeding 10 cents,
5 cents per pound; worth over 10 cents
per pound, s cents, if secured, treble.
These rates are much higher than
those originally fixed by the Senate
committee, and the wool men regard
them as more advantageous than those
in the House bill, or than the Mckinley
law
There We're present at the meeting
a dozen or fifteen Senators, represent
ing all the States in which wool is an
industry of especial Importance. There
was at one time to-day a prospect of a
Republican caucus on the subject, but
it was decided, instead, to present the
claims of the wool men to the Finance
Committee, with the hope that the
committee would concede the increases
asked. If the concession is not made
a caucus is probable.
TRUST AMENDMENT.
WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator
Nelson of Minnesota has prepared an

lows:

Democrats Willing to Allow the

Their Protests Against Increased
Rates. But Protest Against Con-
sideration of a Monetary Com
mission Bill at This Session.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-The pro-

the past few days has encouraged many
Senators to believe that its conSldera-

orally anticipated. There is falr I'M
Outstanding between the republican
Senators and their Democratic oppo-
nents that the bill will not be delayed
in any manner by the extended speech

Senators seem anxious to get away as
soon as possible.
The Democrats will not come to any
agreement as to fixing time for certain
schedules to be considered or to limit
tie time in any manner until there can
be- a definite understanding as to the
intention of the Republicans concern

which it is said, the President Will

the Democrats became convinced that
it was the intention to bring forward
such a measure the debate on the tariff
bill might be prolonged indefinitely.
They were willing to allow the tariff
bill to go through with their protests
against the increased rates but they
do not want to consider the commission
bill at this session.
Whether this will have any effect up
on the programme Of the Republicans
hos not yet been determined, but the
desire of the Republicans to get the
tariff bill through and get away from
Washington may result in postponing
any proposed action until next Decem-
ber 1t has been pointed out that there
will be great difficulty in retaining
quorum here after the tariff bill has

day and preparing themselves to con-
slider the bill in conference with the
least possible delay. The committee has

Truth in
Advertising.
FROM AN ARTICLE BY c, {. HOPKINS. NEW

FROM AN ARTICLE BY C. c. HOPKINS, NEW YORK.
FalsehOOd has held high carni-
val in the advertising field, and
people have found it out. In the
fierce competition engendered,
even truth has sometimes lost its
garb of simplicity, and doubtful
adjectives are recklessly used to
emblazon it. Advertising has thus
discredited itself.
But | am ready to assert that
not only can an advertising man
be truthful, but that the more
closely he follows the principles of
simple truth and honor, the more
certain will be his success.
ChicagO's merchant prince is
Marshall Field. Through all the
changing conditions of the last
fifteen years the house of Marshall
Field u Co. has always main
tanned its supremacy. No store III
the West enjoys to a greater ex-
tent the absolute confidence of the
community. No experienced shop
per in Chicago doubts that she will
find at Fields exactly the bargains
advertised. Such confidence is a
tremendous asset in a business.
"There is no other business field
in which truth is so essential as in
advertising. The work of an ad-
vertising man poses before the
world, and the worlds Judgment
is never long in error. We find a
man out by acquaintance. Com
partnership quickly reveals deceit.
Neither advertisements nor men
are often measured wrong for any
length of time"
